way company, ;ncbrporated in Port
land last Saturday From the
Standard we learn that the enter
prise in which said corporation is
to engage is: First, .the .construct
ing and operating,of a railroad or
railroads from, a point on the east
ern boundary Hne of the State of
Oregon, at or nenr the junction of
the Snake ami 'Malheur rivers,
westward, crossing the Cascade
mountains, by way. either of the
McRenzio river, Minto Pass, and
Santiam river or,, by way of the
middle fork of the "Willamette
river to the city of Portland; sec
ond, to- construct a road from the
same 'point on the eastern bound
ary of the. state, northwestward
via .Baker City to' the Columbia
river, at the- town of Umatilla, or
such other point as may, be found
most practicable, thence by way
of said river on the south bank
thereof, tothe west side of the
Cascade mountains, and thence to
the city of Portland. Third, the
construction, etc., of an extension
of said lines, or with one thereof
from Portland nortnward to some
point on the Columbia river. The
'connecting .with such other rail
road and' navigation company,
owning or operating lines of trans
portation in the state of Oregon, or
any other state or territory in the
in the United States, as may be
deemed expedient, and entering
into agreements therewith for the
pro-' rating'on" freights, and fares on
either or both. It is the intent
and purpose of the corporation to
build a line of railroad in connec
tion" w'itfr, and a part of the Oregon
Short Line of Wyoming Territory,
and to ultimately consolidate with
and become a part of said line.
It is expected that the 0. R. &N.
Co. wiljcxtend their line to Baker
City-aiid that'the" Sliort Line will
be built from Granger to Boise by
the end of this year mid MB" Te-
maining 120 miles between the
two termini to lie built and oper
ated by one 'of the other, roads, as
may be mutually agreed upon, and
earnings divided pro rata, but Mr.
"Williams says that Mr. Villard haa
a charter to build through Idaho
and Wyoming, and the Short Line
must be ready to return the com
plimenT iJy'Ccoming. "to" Oregon,
hence the-preparation, as it is
barely , possible that this agree
ment may be'riiillified. ' 'Whatever
may be the future of the Short
Ijinef?h Oregon, its -headquarters
will be in Portland, and if it does
not join Mr. Villard's enterprises,
will make that city its western
terminus
? A Brother's Opinion.
Tn' an interview with John Gui
teau, brother of the assassin, on
.the3rd,3he saidt..accordirij to a
Washington dispatch, the prisoner
receives about three hundred let-
,'ters'' "a day'. They are no longer
sent to him. We have not time
to read them, as there are too
many, other-.important things to
. do. ' It", would not be proper, of
.4 :W.&$ftfcl2end them to him. Al-
'. -t losBp bjtn to hold levees, read
'J j'plpere see letters, send out Jet-
1rfcte,3S!)ff?hingsof that sort, is not
t'shMWPr'nipe- - prisoner so
. -situated might get up a conspiracy.
". . Of55ifse' there Is notliingof that
kind to be feared in this case.
"Whatls your opinion as to the
result of that trial."
"I "believe 'the jury will hang
liitn,,anq3or insane. 1 have al
ways told oiir people so. The
'tendenchf this expert testimony
has been very .strong against him.
These gentleman have a theory
Ahafc tnefeScannot'be'insanity with
out disease. We all knew that as
soon as they' came here and began
, JV? ?$C$5!i,,e,r' he i Jfl- been -sick
or not, what the testimony would
, bcggeptlemen .are honest
in their theory, but their theory is
wrong. They are partisan de-
" fehderi'"of a"nw ideV When
sharp lawyers began to gain an
acquittal on the ground of emo
tional insanity and his being
monomaniac, the experts got to
gether and decided that the brain
must be found Jo be diseased in
order to establish insanity. It is a
IvMwijr wiuv uuum iiiiug any iikiij.
The truth is my brother is an idiot?
les, an ldtot," 'continued Mr.
Giteau. In response to an ex
clamation of surprise, he said:
"There are different kinds of idiots.
He was born without ordinary
common sense. He ought to be
thinking about other things," said
MrJ Guiteau, speaking of letters
received for the prisoner, "he
ought to be thinking about his
latter end."
"In the event of his being
hanged what disposition will be
made of his body"?"
"I have my opinion but I don't
like to give it." He hesitated a
moment and then overcoming his
momentary scruples, said, "I think
the prosecution will do anything to
justify their course, and there will
be no post mortem examination
made." Guiteau further expressed
the opinion that the jury would
not be out more than two hours
before deciding a verdict of con
viction. "The truth is," he said,
"pressure of public opinion is too
great. It is bulldosing the judge
and jury and everybody else. I
wll say for Judge Cox, however,
that he has shown remarkable dis
cretion and firmness during the
whole trial."
The present surplus of coin in
the federal treasury has developed
numerous schemes for expending
it. Speculators and public plun
derers of hhjh and low degree
have projects for constructing all
sorts of public works which they
will own and the Government will
pay for. The worst of it is that
many needed improvements; many
measures of national importance
in the matter of river and harbor
improvements are, for' that very
reason overlooked. By the time
the "jobs" arc pretty well put
through, many legitimate bills
come up just in time to share in
tho odium the passage of the for
mer inspires and are killed.
In a late speech at Carlisle,
Lawson, a member of parliament
said in reference to the Irish
questien: "If peoplo had some
thing disagreeable they did not
stick to it, but got rid of it. If
tbey had a housemaid who was
constantly breaking crockery, get
ting into hysterics, and acting in
such a way that two or three had
to b'e called in to her, they would
say, 'wayward sister, go in
peace.' And if they did not
get the Irish question settled,
he would cast away all prejudice
and look the question impartially
in the face. He did not see much
argument in the way the leaders
and everybody dealt with this
question. There was one thins;,
they said, which could never be
allowed the utsintcrgration of
the empire. "A five sylkilile.ii
word always fetched John Hull,
and yet we have been disinter
grated over and" over again, and it
did us a great deal of good.
Once upon a time we ruled
America, but the Americans did
not want us to rule them any
more, and were disintegrated."
A California negro minstrel
recently employed in a lucrative
engagement failing to act in his
usual hilarious manner, gives as
his reason that he had lost in real
estate ventures. The manager
now brings suit that his troubadour
be funny by order of the court, or
show cause why his engagement
should not be cancelled.
