prospective bright-lined future.
Kcv. J. I. Mllllgau. Snbbnth
hohool missionary for the Presbyter
ian synod of Oregon, assisted by
Kcv. Altar of Princvillc, handed
out large bunches of salvation to
the citizens of llcnd last week. The
reverend gentlemen were, domiciled
ju the Drake cottage, in thenbhence
pf Mr. and Mrs. Drake, and they
were compelled to concoct tholrown
hash. The office force of the Ilul
letiu partook of a dinner served and
cooked by the mmioiiarlutt, ami if
uithor of the gontlomen ever desire
n recommendation as chef we will
be pleased to hand our names iu as
references.
We arc reliably informed that the
new paiwr which is being put in at
Uoud is being backed by the direc
tors of the Columbia Southern Rail-
wav comoanv. This looks as if
that company intended to complete
their line to that place iu the near
future. George Schlecht will have
the editorial management of the
paper and A. II. Kennedy, foreman
of the Review office, will take
charge of the 'mechanical depart
ment. Central Oiegonlaii. We do
not know where the gentleman re
ceived the above "reliable" infor
' million, nud we take the liberty of
'.correcting some of his statements.
The Columbia Southern Ry. Co. is

Clias. I'iuley, accompanied by
his wife and two Uibios, passed
through Ueud on Tuesday with a
lond of freight which he is taking
to his much at the upper cud of the
llig Meadows. He reports the roads
between Rend and Slmuiko as hav
ing greatly improved with the past
week of spring weather.
A party . of twenty-three jcople
from Dulutli, Minn., and West -Superior,
Wis., passed through Rend
on Tuesday, on their way to the
tall timber. They Were under the
guidance of Mr. Jonos, a promiuunt
locator, and will probably find what
they are seeking in the vicinity of
Silver Lake.
The name of thcpostofilceat Rend
lms been changed to Deschutes, and
mail should be addrussed according
ly The usual inconveniences will
follow for a time, until the iwoplc
become accustomed to the change.
The citizens here should inform
their corresKudcuts and friends to
address all mail to Dehchutcs.Crook
Co., Oregon.
The survey of the new towusite,
"Lytic," hiw been completed, and
lots will shortly be placed on the
market. There should be no trouble
disiwsing of them, as the towusite
is unusually sightly and well chos
en, being in close proximity to the
new mill and directly on the line
and near the terminus of the Col
umbia Southern Railway.
"Dad" West's new City Meat
Market has been graced with a very
artistic sign, painted by Harney
Lewis Instead of writing the pro
prietor's name on the sign, the ar
tist drew an unusually lifelike pic
ture of Mr. West iu the center, to
enable illiterate purchasers of beef
steaks to distinguish the proprietor
without asking foolish questions.
The force of men engaged in
building Reed &' Steidl's sawmill
have been busy preparing timbers
for the framework. The frame will
be completed iu a short time, and it
will not be very long until the mill
will be turning out finished lumber
of all descriptions. The power will
consist of a powerful undershot
wheel for the present. Later an
improved turbine will be added.

Mr. John Steldl left for Portland
Sunday morning on busiuuw con
nected with the Reed & flteidt saw
mill. While at Slmuiko Mr. Steldl
will have the machinery iiow iu the
wttTyliou.se forwarded to Rend im
mediately. The ifi to i question U almost a
back number, but in Rend the 4 or
5 to 1 question came to n very live
ly and exciting Issue one day last
week. One man came down to the
schoolliouse mid attempted to dis
member about four of the school
lxys. The mix-up was a warm one
while it lasted, and the friends of
the man who started the row had
to pick their hero up with a rake
and a piece of blotting tmper.
The Rullctiii has taken up its
quarters iu the old log .sclioolhoii.se
which has been a landmark here
for many yours. Our start is simi
lar to the first appearance of the
Oregoiiiau, which also resided at
first iu a log cabin; but God knows
whether or not fifty years from 1903
will sec us installed in a magnificent
sky-scraper, enjoying the reputa
tion of one of the lenders iu journal
istic thought and enterprise. The
possibilities of this country are un
limited, and if wc expand with the
country nud increase iu knowledge,
experience and worldly goods ac
cordingly we shall make no com
plaint.

Secretary Hitchcock's Decision.
DciMirtmetit of the Interior,
Washington, D. C, March 3, 1903
CommiMikmer of the General
Laud Office Sir: With your office
letter of 3d ultimo were transmitted
articles of incorporation nud due
proofs of organization of the Pilot
Ihttte Development Company, of
the State of Oregon; also maps of
location of the Pilot Rutte canal,
and laterals A and R thereto; the
Central Oregon canal, first and iec-
ond sections, and the Powell Rutte
lateral of the Central Oregon, all of
which were filed by the Pilot Rutte
Development Compnuy as an appli
cation for right of way under sec
tions 18 to 21 of the act of March 3,
1891 (26 stat., 1095), ""d in said
letter you recommended that the
articles of incorporation be accepted
for filing under said act and that
the maps of location be approved.
In this connection you forwarded
an appeal by C. C. Hutchinson,
president of the Oregon Irrigation
Company, from your decision of
January 17, 1902, dismissing his
protest filed against the Pilot llutte
Development Company, before re
ferred to. This apjusal was filed
out of time, and it is for Unit reason
submitted -v with the recommenda
tion that it be dismissed. Aside
fiom the fact that this appeal was
not filed iu time, a careful exami
nation of the protest discloses no
reason for reversing the action of
your office taken thereon. The
said protest will therefore stand dis
missed, The papers and maps, as sub
mitted, have been carefully exam-
iitcd aiid the recommendations iu
regard thereto made by your office
are approved. The articles of in
corporation of tine Pilot Rutfc De
velopment Company arc therefore
herewith returned for filing under
the act of 1891, and the mam of
location above described arc here
with returned with the departmen
tal approval noted thereon.
IJ. A. Hitchcock,
Secretary.
The a'bovc official comnjuuicatioii
from Secretary Hitchcock to the
'commisaipner o the general land
office removes the final obstacle in
the way of the Pilot Rutte Develop
ment Co.'s project for reclaiming
the denert, and effectually prevents
further optositiou to the construc
tion of their large canals. Work
will commence ill the near future,
as soon ns men and material am be
assembled.
Rcndy to Begin Operations.
The Columbia Southern Irriga
tion Co., which has charge of the
large reclamation contract on the
west side of the Deschutes, iu the
Tumello country, will have a large
force of men at work on their ditch
es as soon as the snow goes off.
The work will be under the direct
suj)crvisioii of Col. Smith, the gen
ial proprietor of the Rimrock
Springs ranch. The colonel has
had a great ileal of cxtwriencc in
this line, and we feel that the choice
of the Columbia Southern Irriga
tion Co. was a wise one. Rcfore
many weeks the dirt will begin to
fly, and by this time next year wc
will see the desert dotted with
houses.
Wc understand that all of the
28,000 acres which this company
will reclaim have been spoken for,
and it will mean business for the
eople of Ueud, as this will be their
postoffice and nearest trading point.
We will then have hay and the set
tlers will have dollars.
Portage Road nt Cctlto.
In a short time work will have
commenced on the portage road
around the dalles of the Columbia.
The legislature appropriated
$165,000 for this work, and altho'
this sum seems somewhat inade
quate, it will be a great step to
wards an open river. And it will
be the greatest and most important
event iu the history of Uastcrn Or
egon since the lime that Meriwether
Lewis and William Clark came iu
sight of Mount Hood's snowy man
tle and followed it down the Col
umbia until they were able to greet
the rising sun behind it instead Of
bidding the day farewell as the sun
went down iu the west, bathing the
gnqid ofd mountain iu a blaze of
glory.
