Theic has been a rumor in rail road circles for some time that the Northern Securities "Co., which controls the systems of the North ern Pacific and Oreat Northern railway companies has boon look ing over the Eastern Oregon coun try for a route over which it hopes to "tap" California in opposition to the line now controlled by the Harrlmun iutoragtjg.

A saloon which is conducted openly and according to the re quirements of law :lloes not cuttse one-tenth the distress and misery that is hatched and fostered in the operation of a "blind tiger." The KKpte ho want whiskey will get it whether a saloon is in the com munity or no; ami it is much bet ter for them and for the community to allow such people to step into a lawful dispensary of malt and vin ous liquors than it would be to buy concoctions of wood alcohol and other poisons In a "Wind pig."

It shall be our constant aim to foo ter and further the efforts of settlors who may intend to make their homes and fortune! in our midst.

The action of Secretary MI itch cock, in affirming the decision of the commissioner of the general laud office dismiirfiing the protest of C. C. Hutchinson, president of the Oregon Irrigation Company, re moves the last obstacle in the way of the Pilot Butte Company's work. Mr. Hutchinson protested ngainat the granting of the application of flic Pilot Butte Company for rights of way for canals, by which the lot--ter conqtaiiy proxed to divert the wafers of the Deschutes river for the purpose of reclaiming their lands recently entered under the Carey act. The commencement of the Pilot Butte Company's reclamation wprk, which will take place with out great delay since its contracts are approved and all other obstacles have been removed, will mark the begintting-of a great lira of Devel opment for this section of the coun try. Irrigation and its benefits arc practically unknown in Oregon, only small areas having been irri- the Cascades for the jmst two or three years, ami the vjuiotts rumors have finally focuseed down to one conclusion the route from Shan iko to Bead, as sun-eyed by the Columbia Southern engineers, and from Bend south over the natural (MSB between the Klamath emu I,akc country ami the Deschutes. The fact that the Paul Mohr jor tage road has lately been purchased by the Jim Hill people, and the ac tivity of the numerous surveying parties along the Columbia river between Colilo and Pasco, gives somewhat more color to these grapevine" articles than is usually discernible in the railroad columns of cur larger daily papers. The Harriman interoats are strongly ngfiiust the extension of the Colum bia Southern from Shauiko to Bend. They would not take up the requis ite bonds themselves, nor would they allow the management of the Columbia Southern to dispose of them on the New York stock mar ket; and they even went so far as to state that if the Columbia South ern secured enough local Oregon capital to build out from Shaniko the)' would immediately build a parallel road in opposition. But the Northern Securities com panyof which Jim Hill is the head and tlte Harriman interests are deadly enemies; and if Mr. Harri- mati does not keep his eyes open the Columbia Southern will be in Hill's hands, and Bend will be the most important city oti n . railroad extending from San Hruucisco to St. Paul. The poople of Crook county can hail with joy any fight which may occur between Hill and Harriman, as it will mean that cither Hill will buy the Columbia Southern as part of his system for tapping California, or Harriman will allow Lytic to ex tend in order to keep Hill away. With the assurance of the port age road around the dalles of the Columbia, and the fight on between Harriman and Hill, the Columbia Southern will soon be independent of the O. R, & X., and another year or two will sec Bend connected with the outside world by two shining bands of steel, and tlte shrill whistle of the locomotive will awaken the slumbering industries of the upper Deschutes valley to an active participation in the business affairs of the great Northwest, and people will begin to realize that there is more in this groat undis covered country of Central Oregon than mere occasional spurts of hot nir. ing squadron at the battle of San tiago, will be one of the party, and will be presented with the sword for I which the clUieus of Oregon have subscribed. We should enjoy n visit from our strenuous president, but owing to a lack of accomiiuxlft tions and railroad communications 011 our part -and an apparent lack of time and iuciiuatiou 011 his wc shall be compelled to forego thel pleasure this thue; but in a few years whaij "Tdy" shall .have entered upon his second term wc shall insist uiou him taking a lay off and depopulating our trout streams of their speckled bonutiu and our forests of their nutlered hosts. Wc could certainly show our president the time of his life should he cdifijo the upper Des chutes country. General Merchandise, Groceries, Clothing, Furnishing Goods CAM. ON HIM. PRICKS RIOHT.
