no delay in moving any pari of the
plant, however, on account of the
Gist lumber. Probably the entire
mill will l ready for operation at

Though the P. 11. I). Co. has
taken the Initiative In this matter,
it is yet pmsible that the entire
milling plant will be linudled by a
separate organization or by the
Towusile company. It was deem

misunderstanding arose with the

balky car was deserted some ten
miles this side of Culver and the

being reached in the wee smo
chilly hours. The only silver lin

inspiring view of the comet was ob

JUNCTION WITH
Railroad Frpm Ontario to Bend Have
Worked Long on Survey Give ,
Outlet to Ogden Markets.
There Is to lc on castondwcst
line across Central Oregon Purtber
more, Ikud will be the junction
point of the trans-state road with
the Oregon Trunk Ry. The an
nouueement of these plans emanates
from John IJ. liurchurd, who heads
the syndicate which recently pur
chased the 800,000 acre land grant
of the V7. V. & C. M. Wagon
Knad Co. Although the Hill in
terests have denied any part in the
laud purchase the backers of the
enterprise all are closely idcntiGcd
with Hill operations.
Definite announcement of a
Kcud-Ontario line has long been
expected. During the last eight
months engineers have been in the
field and it was a- well known fact
that a survey had been located
from Iknd southeasterly. It is
now stated that the Poise & West
ern will buna iroru untarin, near
the Idaho boundary, to tiend.
The road will not only open up the
vast holdings of the old road land
grant for colonization but will pass
through the very center of the
sage brush country whose free
lands now are being settled upon
by many 330 acre homesteaderr
from Bend. Besides, connecting

II. P. Hoev, chief engineer of
the Southern Pacific system and IJ.
M. Krickson, a railroad contractor,
last week made a record auto trip
from Xlaraalu to Bend, covering
the distance la 8 hours.
Mr. Hciey, it is understood, has
been looking over the route of the
Natron Cut-oil In connection with
the letting of the construction con
tract on 35 miles of road from
Klamath Agency towards Crcsccut.
It is stated by those in close touch
with developments in this southern
portion of the Deschutes Valley
that at an early date work will be
in progress qu the Harriman road
into Crescent to connect with the
line being extended eastward from
Natron. Furthermore from the
considerable Harriman activity in
that quarter there seems reason to
suspect an intention of advancing
northward towarda Beud to make
connection with the Deschutes
road.
It is reported that a force of men
is working on the roads from
Spring River north, removing
stumps and stones and putting
theta in first claw shape Another
road, it is understood, will be con
structed from the Royce ranch to
Crescent' Lake. Mr. Hoey, who

the great embryo wheat area with
Hcnd the II. & W. will open the
way lor the invasion or the Ogden

chutes lumber. It is for suck a
connection that the big timber in
tcrcsts have been working, it is un
derstood. The junction of this
line with the O. T. Ry. here, say
lumber experts. Insures that not
only will practically all the timber
be milled at Hend. but that this
will be the great shipping and dis
tributing center for ranch of the
Deschutes Valley.
The syndicate which is handling
thc.road lands is known as the
Oregon & Western Colonization
Company aud Is capitalized for
512,000,000.
It is the plan of the company to
inaugurate at once a great coloniza
tion campaign. Their holdings.
which extend from the Wtllstnette
Valley to Idaho, will be divided np
into small tracts, to be sold at
prices ranging from $rc, to 200 an
acre. Much of the land will be
irrigated, and a publicity work un
dertaken upon a scale-greater than
that ever before attempted, In con
junction with the Great Northern's
activity in this direction.
BRICK YARD IN OPERATION.
First
Bend Brick Made Successfully.
MacWfle la Installed.
The first instalment of brick
made of Bend clay by Bend manu
facture, 50,000 In number, have
just emerged from the kiln. The
brick were made bn the old Barney
Lewis place two miles west of
towji, which now is the property ot
Mewrs. Van Matre, Fred Hunnell
amTGeorge Gerston, who are oper
ating the brick yard.
These brick are hand-made. A
brick-making machine, however,
arrives in Bend tonight and will be
installed and put in operation at
once Its capacity will be 15,000
a day. The clay, which is inex
haustible in quantity, is of a very
high quality and makes an excel
lent product. The backers of the
new enterprise declare that the fur
ther down they go the better be
comes the clay, and that their
machine-made brick will be the
equal of those anywhere obtain
able. Five years ago a kiln of brick
was burned at the same place,
which proved to be of excellent
quality. .
