If the country will produce
traffic to lupport railroads, I think
we ought lo build the railroads,"
ald I'reildcnt kovett, of the liar
rlman system, in llentl yesterday.
He put npcclal stress on the "we,"
meaning the Harriman intercuts.
"I had never personally examined
interior Oregon," he continued
"and atn taking thin trip for the
purpose of looking into native
caudltiouR and Retting acquainted
with the country. I find there is
plenty of It.
s "I wanted more particularly to
get an idea of the route of our pro
poud line between Ontario and
Ode!l (Crescent). We have a pre
liminary survey for a Hue there.
We may build there or we may
change tbe line materially."
"la there a possibility that your
line to Ontario may join your
north-and-sonth line nt Hcnd?"
"I don't believe I ought to dis
cuss that," was the non-committal
answer.
"This country will have trans
portatlou 100 11. I know of no
rcAsou for interruption of work
now under way. Wc ore already
committed to construction of a line
from the Columbia to this vicinity,
and wc are building the Natron
Klamath road, Ikyond these no
announcements are yet ready.
Clearly the prescut is not a good
time to float railroad securities and
the raising of money for new enter
prises is something of a problem.
Kvcrvtblng will doubtless work out
all right in its time, but it is uot
quite wise to promise too much for
the future. I niuit say that the
agricultural value of the region we
have traversed docs not seem to me
above question. Of course there
will be other traffic."

The Importance of securing fine
exhibits for the Great Northern

dividual members pledged them
selves to get actively Into the work.
A committee was appointed to aid
der construction by Steidl and
Tweet. The fact that both visitors
asked Mr. Steidl to keep accurate
account of all expenses there, with
the evident idea of taking over the
work for diversion puroscs later,
along lines previously contemplated,
is regarded as an indication that an
adjustment of I). I. & P. affairs is
practicnlly concluded. Both men
hurried back Hast.

WcUter's Dictionary ilcflnca the
word "CritlcUm" at "Detailed

UiLl
A BANK is constantly subject to "Criticism" otherwise
the neonle would hesitate to entrust their monev to its
core. Our beautiful town of Bend is subject to "Criti
cism" as wc nil know, but it only helps us to grow, for
when people examine and review what has taken place here in
the past year, they can't help but say Bend has done wonders,
"Criticism" (detailed examination and review) is what
we want. It helps us to improve It makes n Bank safeguard

The formal meeting adjourned to
an excellent banquet at the Star
Bakery, after which occurred more
refreshment, cigars and discussion
at the C. O. R. Co.'s offices It
was decided to hold another meet
ing Monday afternoon for the pur
nose of discussing ways and means
for a larger organization.
The chief topic of Monday's
meeting was tbe best way to estab
lish and conduct some comtnuuity
organization which would provide
a sort of central body for the con
duct of "boosting," exhibit work,
the caring for vis Itors and a cen-
cral club. The idea, as developed.
was to get a club under way, with
an initiation fee of perhaps f 2.50
and monthly dues of Si, Such a
club to have a meeting room, where
agricultural and other exhibits
would be kept, and a writing and
rest room provided for visitors. It
was the decision of tbe meeting
that the President call a mass
meeting of citizens for next Friday
night, at 8 p. ra., at Linster's Hall.
Thereupon tbe meeting adjourned
until the first Thursday iu Sep
tember, when the Board meets at
the Crook County Realty Co.'s
offices.

covered iu the Sisters neighbor
hood and in the past week have
been in Bend, at the Hotel Bend.
Their purpose is, of course, unde
clared, hut it is evident they are
not establishing foreign missions or
Carnagic libraries.
The Oregon Trunk people have
placed an order with the Pilot
Uutte mill for mote than 40,000
feet of lumber to be used in build
ing the crossing at Greenwood ave

ALDERMAN PAYS TOO.
City Father Finds Ordinance Meet Ef
fectivePound Proper.
"As thou so west so shall thou
reap " The force of the parable
has been born home to Alderman
Overturf with a vengeance. He,
youngest of tbe city fathers, was
tbe most earnest advocate of
tbe strict enforcement of tbe ordi
nance providiog for the impound
ing ot stray animals about the
town, the owners to pay $1 as a fee
to regain them, plus the city's cost
for keeping them.
Recently the horse Overturf
rides, when sent home to Aunt's
barn, wandered from his way, and
promptly was put in the pound.
Whereupon Alderman Overturf
was relieved of one good dollar
On last Saturday a colt belonging
to him was found at large, and im
pounded. After searching for him
three days Overturf recollected the
ordinance and the pound; the ex
act costs thus far have not been ascertained.
BACK FROM CRESCENT

llmmary Work on Power Project.
R G. Gould returned on Satur
day from Crescent where he has
been engaged in engineering work
on a power proposition. Mr.
Gould, after a couple of weeks of
preliminary surveying and pros
pecting, found the best dam loca
tion about a mile below the Cres
cent townsitc on the X.ittle Des

approximate, as thus far only the
preliminary work has been done, it
is understood that the proposed

leer, uign. a rutcli about 5000
leet in lengtu will have to be built
to lead the water to a location
adaptable to tbe best production of

WORK IS NEAR END.
Arnold Company's New Fhune Is Now
I'ractkaHy Completed.
Engineer George S. Youo, who
is in charge of construction ot
the flume at tbe head of the Ar
nold ditch, says the work is ap
preaching completion aud the force
of 40 men, employed since April,
will be reduced to half that number
by the middle of the mouth. The
Sig Clark sawmill will then move
back to the Hunnell place after
having provided about 700,000 feet
of lumber for the flume. Henry
Linster is paid $4 per thousand
stumpage for this timber, the high
est price .thus far quoted in the
Deschutes timber belt.
It is expected that water will
run tbe Whole length of the Arnold
ditch by October 1. The 5400
lineal feet of flume will then have
been completed aud tbe four or five
sinkholes stopped aud enough
water to irrigate 10,000 acres of
thirsty laud will go out on the
plain as there may be use for it.
The new trestle is much more
strongly constructed than any other
on the Deschutes, considering the
service required of it. The flume
is ta feet wide and 3 feet deep,
superseding one that was 1x6 feet.
Posts over 13 feet long are 10 inches
square, over 6 feet long 8 inches
square aud the shorter ones are 6
inches square.

RECITAL IS GREAT HIT
Clever Recitations and VJoHa Nam

The literary and musical recital
given at the Baptist church last
Thursday evening by Miss lone
Pearl Fisher aud Miss Iva M.
West, with Miss Veda M. Wil
liams as accompanist was a pro
nounced success.
It was Miss Fisher's first appear
ance in Bend and from her first
number, a humorous recitation

the warm applause accorded her
evidenced the audience's apprecia
tion, miss rubers selections.

diversified in character, offering
her broad .scope for exhibition of
her versatile talent. From tbe
dramatically sad story of tbe death

street urchin, told with an impress.
ive power that held her audience,
tbe reader moved lightly on to
three delicious and excellently
well-rendered humorous selections
from James Whitcomb Rilev. in
imitably ending in a burst of tears
with her "I ain't agoin' to cry no
more" while tbe audience, with
volleys of laughter, showed how
they wished there was some more.
The violin selections of Miss West,
fortunate in the assistance of Miss
Williams, whose finished accom
panying was a feature of the enter
tainment, were applauded to the
echo. Her work showed a thor
ough mastery of the subjects chosen
ind a technique which bore wit
ness to the four years of instruction
which she just has completed in
Portland. Tartini, Moszkowski,
Paganini and Wieniawski were
the composers chosen. Perhaps
most enjoyable of all of her num
bers was Paganini's Cavaleria
Ruticano.
Miss Maud Vandevert managed
tne ,affjir, its success reflecting
great credit upon her initiative.
At last nights City Council meet
ing, owing to the absence of the
