Mr. Allen has a contract for de livering a lot of cord wood near Cot- terell. Quite a number of tlie Austrians at Camp Five and Six and also at Bull run have gone lawk to Austria to "join the colors" on anticipation of a scrap with I Hervia. Come to the banana belt I Compliment* of the season I The right-of- wav has been secured for the new railroad nearly all the way from Sandy to Welches so that the peo ple of this vicinity have strong hopes of lieing in "the swim" in the not distent future. The old year is rapidly drawing to a close. Pretty near time to swear off. In a recent trip to the mountains, up to Mr. ami Mrs. Ezra Truemans on the south side of the Bandy, near Bull Run Reeerva, the writer was shown over tbs new projected road now partially com- plated up over the Cascades and it must lie admitted that this new road is a complete aurpriae on account of the eaay grade. This grade is barely 5 per cent and does not ezceed this all of the way over the mountain. This it the beat possible route over tbe Cascades up and down the entire length of the alate It require* but little discernment to foresee the day when thi* route will lie utilized not only as an auto and scenic road over the mountains down into th« world famous Hood River Val ley but as an electric R R. from East ern Oregon into Portland. This road «kirta Mt. Hood for more than 40 ndles and commands a magnificent view of Mt. Hood the entire distance The 1 time is not far distant when this will tie one of the most popular trips in the entire state both for autos and electric roads. People are now buying land near the Reserve for the purpose of get ting in on the ground floor before the boom sets in. A Mr. Totten, of Corvalles, and a former employee of the Forestry De partment has taken tip a claim on the Bull Run Reserve near Mr. Trumans with the expectation of getting it set off as agricultural land. It lays near the new road over the mountain* and is all good land. Pinchot, the groat land conservator is writing letters to people in Oregon trying to get them to help keep the present Reserve intact and under charge of the National Government. "Noth ing doin.” Oregon for Oregonian* and all the vast tree e. R. R grants, Mili tary road grants, and Forest Reserves must he turned over to the state where thev rightfully belong. Fully one-fourth of the state is now kept out of use and is greatly handicapped thereby. The old Oregonian is terribly dis tressed over the report that Bryan is liable to be a member of the new Cabi net in the spring. A sincere patient worker for the common weal is rank poison to cold blooded, selfish greedy grabbing grafters everywhere. Every dog has his day and these tariff hogs, land thieves and corporations sharks, are out in the wet where they will stay the next four years. Fred Bechel of Brightwood, is an old acquaintance of Henator Harry Lane of Portland and says there will sure be something "doin’’ at Washington when he get* on the job No mollycoddle about him.
