PORTLAND NEXT MEETING PLACE Oregon ranks seventh among all tha states in railroad building dur ing 1909. These figures are com piled by the leadiDg railroad pub lications of the country and show that the Beaver state added 134 miles to its railroads during the vear just closed. The Pacific Northwest is declared to be the great goal of competitive railroad building in the United (States. The struggle of the railroads to enter Central Oregon is detailed and de velopment in the Willamette Val ley and in the Oregsn Coast coun try is recorded. This is a far bet ter showing for the pnst year than was made in 1908. when 79 miles of new railway was built in this state. National Woolgrowers Close in Harmony.

PiiELrs After the selection oE Portland, Or., for the next meeting place, the 46th annual session of the Na tioDal Woolgrowers' association came to a close Saturday. All the present officers were re-elected as follows: President, VV. Fred Gooding Shoshone, Idaho; eastern vice pres ident, A. J. Knollin, Chicago: wes tern vice president, J. M. Delfeld er, Walton, Wyo. The contest for the meeting place of 1911, was between Port land, Oregon and Boise, Idaho, but just before the voting began, the Idaho delegation withdrew Boise, and the selection of Portland, was made by unanimous vote.t The association adopted the re port of tne committee on resolu tions without change. It was also voted that the association should become an incorporated body. The resolutions emphatically condemned "tariff tinkering," and declared that protection was the salvation of the wool industry. Past regulation of the forestry service was declared to be based "more upon theory than tipon knowledge" and more favorable in terpretation of the grazing laws is demanded. A , special minimum clause is also desired in the 36 hour limit law on livestock trans porta! ion. Hearty approval is al so expressed of the efforts of the National SVool Warehouse and Storage Company in marketing woo, and western cities are praised for the establishment of independ ent warehouses.

The an nounced intention of theOreRon Refin ing & Smelting Company to start the plant in this city ss goon as Spring will permit transportation of ores has had the effeot of stimulating owners of properties. The unusually cold weather has retaided operations considerably and no great undertak ing will be begun until it changes. Roada are io excellent shape for haul ing, but few properties are ready for operation. Several mineowners have started plans for shipments of ore to the smelter as soon as the plant starts Among these are several in the Susauville district, also Gianite and Greenhorn. Susanville embraces the Stockton, Badger, Chattanooga, Gold Bug and Monitor. The first two are old-timo producers and have large and well developei ore bodies. Exorbitant shipmnnts rates have kept them inactive for several vears. The same an be said of the leading mines of the Granite and Greenhorn districts. The completion of the Sumpter Valley Railway to Prairie Citv will reduce the mileage of team hauling to about one-half of that with whioh the Susanville people have had to contend in past years This route will be in operation early in the Spring. for nearly all the work is finished Governor Dissolves Corporations. Guarded Night and Day. Bert Green, Ben Ilinton and El mer and Larl Shields, who JJwere arrested charged with the murdrfr of Ollie Snyder, are now in the county jail at Canyon City await ing trial. Since their arrest and incarcera tion, the prisoners have been non committal. The preliminary 'examica'ion had been set for the 17th of this month, but on accouut of Attor ney Leedy, who has been retained as counsel by the prisoners, being summoned to Jsppear in Portland and not knowing when he can Jre turn, the attorney for the state has and was only abandonel when severe ' consented to post pone it until a later date if necessary. Every precaution is being taken by Sheriff Collier that no vio'ence shall be done to bis prisoners and that no possible show be 'given them to escape. The jiil is guard ed day and night. Sheriff Collier believes he has enough evidence to warrant a c n yiction, and says he will go to the bottom of the case no matter what the cost may be. , Stoc ( l Winter weather called a halt. Regular trains are now running to the summit of the divide between Austin and Prairie City. In the Cracker Creek district the Columbia continues with its steady production of bullion, employing a large focre the ye round. Concen trates arrive daily from this mine, and are shipped to Tacoma. The E. & E. is reported to be making exten sive improvements with a contract igned for supplying ore to the smelter. The Buckeye is inactive, but this is only temporary, as with the opening of Spring operations are again to be taken up on a more exten sive plan. The Zenith is operating with a small force, but this, it is stated, will be considerably increased when weather conditions permit. In the Granite district the Cougar has not resumed, and there is little hope of it unless a renewal of the lease can be secured by former Manager CASTOR I A For Infants and Children.
