Obituary.
The New Receiver.
The Corvallis News In commenting
upon the appointment of Charles Clark
as receiver says:
There is not a question of doubt but
what the new appointment will give
general satisfaction among the officials
and employes of the road, and also to
the public generally. Everyone will
give a helping band in assisting the
road from its present embarrassed con
dition while under the new manage
ment. Mr. Clark has bad a great deal
of railroad experience and has filled
the position of train dispatcher of the
O. P. road for several years, giving the
very best of satisdaevion in every in
stance. He is well acquainted with
the official duties of tbe road and al
ready knows wliere a saving can be
made In the operatingexpenses, which
gives him a great advantage over al
most anyone else that might have been
appointed to the receivership. Yet too
much must not be expected of Mr.
Clark at once, a everyone knows that
the road has been put under his man
agement under tbe worst circum
stances; the ooMtn steamer tied up, the
river boats lying idle and lu fact tbe
whole system in a terribly muddled up
condition, and men clamoring for their
back pay, with no money on hand; in
such a way is the road at present,
However, an honest and economical
management is assured, and there are
many who fully believe that Mr. Clark
will have tbe road paying its running
expenses before many months roll by.
The best wishes of everybody along
the line and in this vicinity go with
the new receiver, as all have the ut
most confidence in him.

Tunneling the SUklyous.
The Ashland Record learns that the
subject of thehoringofa great tunnel
through the Siskiyo'i mountains so as
to relieve the road of the great expense
of the miles of h op and high moun
tain grade necessary to get over this
one of nature's landmarks and formid
able obstructions to cheap and easy
railroad transportation has been re
vived. It will be remembered that
during the great railroad snow block
ade of January, 1801, when the com
binea efforts of the Southern Pacifio
system's best talent could not open
this mountain for trains for five weeks,
the S. P. people had ordered ttielr en
gineers as soou as they were through
with their work In tbe Cow Creek
canyon, to make a preliminary survey
of this great enterprise for a big hole
through the Siskiyou mountains. The
surveyor's eniup was prepared and the
surveying crew ere In Ashland ready
to go to work, when they were sud
denly ordered by wire to do some Im
mediate work in Southern California,
The Southern Pacific has issued ordeis
to all its surveying crews who have
beeu idle for months to be ready for
work as soon us spring opens, com
mencing March 1st. About the first
work to be done will be a preliminary
survey, followed by a permanent sur
vey by a different engineer, of this big
tunnel.
