Furthermore the road would not have to cross the river to gain its objeot. But we will never get the proposed road. We may have more natural inducements to offer, but we haven't got the vim to let other people know it, or help build it Corvallis Gazette. In Consumption Incurable? Read the follewing: Mr. C. H.
