Elmet; Woolley, aged 27. was shot through the head and instantly killed, on Smith river, a tributary .of the Umpqua, last week, by his com- paaion, Win. McGee, who mistook him for a Ijear. The steamer Kilburn has been taken oft the Coos Bay route, and we understand is to run between San Francisco and San I’edro. The Plant is the- only steamer now mak ing regular trips between San Fran cisco and the bay. But we want more railroads, promised railroads, the chance for development that only mote rail- to.ads will give. We are going to a-t them, or make Mr. Harriman trouble. 1'his is his territory, south of the Columbia, lie claims it, and holds it. We look to him for these needed roads.' It won’t do to sav that nearly all of central ami soutli- 1 astern Oregon is a desert, “not worth scrapping over,” for we all know better. It will not do to say that labor and money cannot be ob tained. We know this isn't so, either. We are going to get some thing done, some of those promises fulfilled, or here will be attempts of one kind or another made that will compel Mr. Harriman’s attention. We demand more railroads, more transportation facilities, and the opening up of the railroad lands to sale and settlement. Mr. Harriman may smile scorn fully at these demands, believing that he is all powerful and the people powerless, but times are changing: this will not be so much longer.— Journal.
