RAILROAD'S NEW YEAR'S GIFT,
The announcement of the traffic
department of the new Oregon-Wash
ington Railroad & Navigation corn
pany in 'this paper, la of great Import
ance to Oregon and of particular In
terest to Wallowa county.
Tho company will pursue a prog
ressive, up-building policy, and has
tho money or credit .to do it with.
One of the first pieces of railroad
news, locally, after the formation
of the company, is that hotter pas.
singer service will be given this
broach without Interfering with the
freight service, very early In, the
spring.
Thr.t L a Xew Year's gift that
w-: all appreciate.
SMALLER ROAD LEVY.
Tho act km of the county court iri
cutting iown the road tax levy from
1V4 mills last year to 1 mill this
year, will not commend Itself to the
large body of taxpayers, who thought
'that now with the court house paid
for, all other extraordinary expenses
paid for, and money in the treasury
that It was time for Wallowa coun
ty to take a step forward Instead1 of
backward In the biggest question of
the day better roads.
Schools and good roads are prac
tically the only returne the farmer
geta for his taxes. With a lower
levy it looks a certainty that the
roada will be no better; probably not
as good as In, the past. .
VICTORY FOR RUSK.
Bully for Jerry Rusk. He's a, game
fighter and won the splendid prize
of the speakership by knowing no
Bitch word as defeat.
The legislature won't be eorry one
minute for electing Mr. Ruak speak
or. He has the ability and la by
nature fair-minded. He will be a
big improvement in the latter re
elect over the aromatic Pat McAr
thur.
