Tho en lerprlee involves two Oregon corpora iona, tho Great Central Railway and tho Utah Western Railway. The former !s to build the lino across Oregon, whilo the other company will continuo tho toad to Salt Lake. Tho entire distancu la 9L0 mile?, ami the estimated cost of tho xoed is tao.OCO.ft.'O. Neither James J. IiiU nor E. II. Har roman is likly to bo intcrostod in this project. Ilarriman certainly would have ho uso for seen a road. II 111 mLjht find It useful in case his BurIlngtou llco is extended to Salt Lk. with tJ-e Clark road as a southern zrtn to Los Angeles aud the Coos Hay project as a nortiicrn branch. Cooa Buy is an insignificant pott, but along the propoaod road aro valuable coal cad timber lands,- -5. F, Examiner. The Examiner is cxcuiablo for not knowing any too much about tho pro posed road, but the ignorance displayed In tho last tbreo lines ia ir.excuw.ble in .-. journal that proftsws to know any thine about the Pacific coast. The inspired idiot who wrote' those Jinta should Etady up bis geography a -ittle, and & dip into ci:rrent lltorr.turo as it sppean in the Auocie.tel Prose dis patches would not hurt 1 im any. He could find matter in tho government re ports that would cnliihten him wonder ;ully. The Examiner ought to know that .there is n creator depth of water on tho Coos Hay bar today than there ia on the .Columbia bar, and that tho entranco Ib in every other regard vastly superior. Tho Examiner ouht a'.eo to know that tho present depth of water hag been at tained without linlf the work projected by the government engineer?, and that tho completion of tho work laid would be likcly'tto give us as great a depth as Jias tho bar outside San Francitce bar bor itself. When the Examiner says of tho best harbor between San Francisco and I'uget eound that it "is an insignificant port," it fallows nn amazing ignoranco of tho facta, If tho Examiner had more than tho merest glimmering of knowledge on tho Eubject, it would know that tho "valu able coal lands" of which it speaks as being "along tho proposed road," are all on Coos Boy and In what ia known by tho government geologists as tho "Coos Hsy Coal Fields" Thi timber land also, of which it wrltos, la nenrly nil directly tributary to (Jwa Hay, Tho Examiner would bettor tend its young men to echool. MUNICIPAL 0WNEU8?llII (Argonaut) Tho board of supervisors has bogun tho actual work of acquiring n street i all way by tho city.

I Avenue nr.d I-ulJon Street to tho Inter.; section of Market and Geary Street?, and Mayor Schmitz haa nppcndel hia signature to the ordinance. It remains now for ttto proposition of issuing bonds to be .submitted to tho voters, and if tliitj I. favorably acted upon, tha.e will bo nofurther delayregardlng this part of tho oystcm. A project to "xtend tho lino down Markot Street to tho ferries will be acted upon as toon as City Attorney Lsno advises tho supervisors ns to tho necessary itops to bo token.
