The route chosen for the road, as
now planned, will lead due west from
Kugene for a distance of ten miles,
then turn northerly in the direction
of Franklin, thence west again to
Goldson and past the Anderson & !
Warner sawmill, past Triangle lake;
and down the Lake creek valley.
This route was selected by the co'- !
niittee and Stephen Carver as the
most feasible, and, while the survey-1
ors may not follow the exact route
selected, this will be the general di- ;
rectlon in which the line will bo ,
built. This route affords an easy .
grade in the mountainous section ;
which the line will traverse, and

miles of the line with the money sub

what Mr. Carver and his iibsociuies
will put up. This will extend the line

argument between counsel ensued as
to tho witness' ability to tell when
Orchard coaBed to exorcise control

member the exact dates, but early In
the spring of 1898 Orchard had noth

his Interest having been succeoded-to
by Daniel Cordoner.

Til Ford, today pcrforted their ap
peal In the 1'nlviVslty of Oregon

the peililons were Illegal, becau.se tho
title of the bill given In the petitions
cll.'ulated and signed waa defective,
and tho warning clause, provided for
by law, was entirely omitted. From
bis decision an appeal to the supremo
court baa been taken, and the
effect will be to stoll further
