can upare them plenty to eat while on

There Is Bomo hitch In the proceed
ings for the transfer of the Orcgonlan
railway lines to tho Boutbern Pacific
Company, says the Orcgonlan. In the
agreement In regard to the matter it
was specified that the stock holders of
the Orcgonlan companies should give
quit-claim deeds to the Southern
Pacific. They thought they could in
duce Mr. C. P. Huntington to give
them f 100,000 more If they refused to
do this, and sent a gentleman, who was
out here once on business for the com
pany, over to w York to endeaver
to effect such an arrangement. In the
mean time thelndebtednessof thccoin
pany which" the Southern Faclfic was
to assume, was bought up at a discount
by some one, presumably In the Inter
est of the company, Mr. Huntington
said this was a violation of the agree
ment, and refused to pay anything
more than at first agreed, and now Is
uncertain whether the sale of the road
to the Southern Pacific wlfl be com
pleted or not.

The stone foundation Work of this
Immense structure was completed last

nothing superior iu Oregon. Tho brick
work in being rapidly pushed forward
under the supervision of that old
prince of bricklayers, iir'."D.' L'undllt
who has layed and supervised more
brbk work than any man on this coast,
having been here in the business for
thirty-five years. The wood work is
keeping pace under the skillful man
agemcnt of master mechanic W. A.
Cox, whose reputation will not suffer
by tho preseut engagement. These
mills confidently expect to be running
with full force, and on full time by the
1st of November 1K89. This enterprise
will lie a credit to Albany and helpful
to Oregon. All the members of this
company are upright and successful
business men. We heartily wish them
abundant success.
Another Fire.
On last Monday night tho entire
business inirtion of Spokane Falls,
covering nearly forty blocks, was de
stroyed by fire. The fire broke out In
a frame block near the depot The
water pressure was very weak, and the
flames spread rapidly, sweeping the
entire block in less than half an hour.
A high wind sprang up soon after the
fire started, filling the air with burn
ing embers, and starting fires In sev
eral adjacent blocks.
The wind increased In violence, and
shifted in all directions, creating a
whirlwind of flames. It was then evi
dent that the city was doomed and the
people liecame panic-stricken. The
firemen lost nil control over tho mad
demon. Every business house lu tho
city including eight banks, all tho
Hotels out one, an me niagni cent

exhausted Itself at the river for lack of
material to burn. Several killed and
injured. Help was sent prompt as the
provisions and supplies in the city
were burned.

A HW POINTS.
Mnnv things are wanted here. It
Is desirable to have manufactories stai-
a
ted. Why not start them: vny
wait from month to month for a
chance to pay a bonus to foreign capl
tll8.U to put them up? There Is mon
ey enough tot troch work right here at
home, and the 1 bonus, can oe sayeu.
If it will pay some eastern man to
come here and be hired to put up a
factory of some kind, why will It not
better pay men who are already here
to take hold of the business themselves?
These questions are pertinent ones.
If Fruit and Vegetable cannery, for
instance, will pay an eastern man,
why will It not as surely pay a Leba
non man? If one-man has not enough
capital, two or 'more have. Their
money Is here and their Interests are
here Why then should you desire to
ti.iv a larze bonus to some stranger to
do whut you can as well or better do
yourselves? These are points worm
your while to think over and discu s,
and too, for you to act upon at once.
THkn hold if something and make
money out of it yourselves Instead of
letting the profits of the business go to
someone, who, as yet, has no nueiesi
hore and nerhaps never will have any
nviumi ti-hltf Vll 171 ve him as a bonus
nnri what he can make out of the bust
news vou have given him. God helps
those who help themselves, as surely
in such matters as these as In any
others. Look to your own interests
and you will find ways to build up
your town and Increase your bank ac
count at the same time.
