Because the Baker K'.ver & Shul shan Railroad Company, incorporat ed Oregon December 22, 1908, has a name Identical with a Washington corporation, Secretary of State Sam H. Nichols, of Washington, refuses to allow the Oregon company to file articles at Olympia so it can do busi ness in that state. The Oregon com )ny proposes to build a railroad from Baker, Skagit county, to Baker Lake and to a point near Ricky Creek. Coos Bay timber and coal lands, that have received so much National advertising through the Roosevelt Tillman controversy, has received favorable mention by an agent of E. H. Harrlman. The agent found, according to his report, that cedar grows in the Coos Bay region as no where else on ear;h and forest of fir as well. A harbor as good as is to be found on the Pacific Coast, and attention is called to the fact of the Increasing value of terminal fa cilities and the likelihood of some one not friendly to the Southern Pa cific's Interests getting the most val uable right-of-way unless Harriman's road gets busy. Preliminary steps in the formation of an Incorporation capitalized at $600,000 were taken at the Irriga tion Congress, held at La Grande last week, and attended by over 400 farmers. The direct result of the meeting was the adoption of a report which provides for incorporation and the closing of the subscription books on April 1, when the construction of the gigantic project will begin on one of two plans, namely, the irrigation of 20.000 acres by building a long canal to the Sandrldge country, or by Irrigating 15,000 acres south and east of La Grande by building a less expensive canal in another direction. The cost price for the water- under either project will be $20 an acre With Irrigation water, It is believed that the wheat land will be convert ed into orchard and small farms thus enabling the valley to supply much larger population. on court bouse 3500 00 J.
