Work on the extension of the Sumpter Valley Railroad will be- gin in a few days. ‘Mr. Archie Bowman, manuger of the Utah Coll ar Ot ’’ struction Company, has arrived in Bon» J Baker City and his outfit of graders’ tools, machinery and supplies is now being loaded on the Short Line road and will arrive here in a day or two and will be immediately tram -shipped over the Sumpter Val ley to the front. A large force of men will be engaged and the exten sion <«he line from a point near Tipton Ito the John Day country will be'pushed vigorously this sea son. It was learned from an official of the Sumpter Valley that it is thiir intention to thoroughly cover this field.-—Baker City Democrat. i. attention to the fact that a large portion of this laud which was to Im reclaimed was tributary to Prineville and that its settlement must necessarily make money for the local business men. “It is the duty of every citizen to lend a helping hand,” he argued “for every ten added to the popula- tionn not only adds wealth to Prineville, but to Crook county and the state at large.’’ He is also quoted as saying he had been through Malheur, Harney and Umatilla counties whJYe irriga tion was in progress, but had seen no place in the state where the pos sibilities were as great as those embraced within the limits of Crook County. Now this may be so in ■regarc to the irrigation business, but if Gov. Chamberland has visited Harney county in the past 21 years he ev idently traveled “incog” for there are several here who know him and they have failed to see him. ___________ ALTERCATION STARI ED .
