LEBANON OREGON, APRIL 12, 1895.
THE NEW OREGON PACIFIC
MR. HAMMOND IN ALBANY.
The Road Will be Reorganized and
Developed. Plans of the New
Company. What Mr.
Hammond Says.
Mr. A. B. Hammond, one of the
nurchnaers of the Oregon Pacific rail
road, arrived in Albany last Monday
aeenuipaniid by Httjierintendeiit Chas.
Clark and Mr. Edwin Btiitie. He will
spend u day or two lit re nnd make a
tour of inspection over the enlire roud,
to familiarize liiuieclf with the exist
ing conditlone.
Mr. Humtuond is a pleasant appear
ing gentleman of abnut 40, whom ap
pearance and conveieatioti at once in
dicate a shrewd, level headed business
man
During the afternoon in company
with Mr. J. V. Ciwlck, Mr. VV. F.
Crosby and C. L. Custer of Sun Fran
cisco, he visited points of interest about
the city and took a look at the
various Oregon Pacific properly iu
Albany.
To a Herald reporter Mr. Hnmmond
aid there was nothing In the affairs of
the road that he desired to keep a
secret "We come here," he said, ''to
do business openly nnd aimve board
and" want the r operation of the
public. At present we tre unuble to
proceed with our plutis until the ease
of the appeul of t.'.e continuation is
decided by the supreme cout t. It wua
our Intention to have begun by this
time the improvement of the roud
already built. It will ' cost at least
tSO.CXK) to d this, mid we do not feel
likfespi inline thu much uioney until
we know that we will secure tiie title
In the mini. The purchase price, $1(W
000, is a very siiwll pariinn of the capi
tal to be invested m the ro.id to make
ita paying I roj.erty. H il'Singincit.
ey anil must be developed.
Ou;' acli'Hii are now baiidieiippcd by
tile appeal pendii.g lu the autpreiite
court but if that is decided satisfactor
ily, we will first put the roud iu tirst
eluss condition. Then will come the
question of extensions. I am informed
that the people of Eugene and rjulem
are ready to give substantial encour
agement for the extension of the road
to those towns. Jf business JuatiQca it,
we wilfbuild brunches to both towns.
As to the eastern extension, we will
build that as fa-t as t lie business will
Justily aud expect eventually ,to con
nect with one of the through eastern
lines. 1 wus told in Pott bind that the
eastern end of the road diil not amount
to much, lint Instead of such being the
case, I can my that no Ktilroad of the
same length in the United Klales oil
ers so much tonnage iu sight us dues
that part of the 0. P. bciwccu Albany
aud Its present eastern terminus.
There Is in the limber region up the
Korlh Bunllatu nine of ten billion fict
of timber, which If sawed Into lumber
would make a train of ears 8000 miles
long. There is a great lumber industry
to be developed there, and It Is part of
our plau to undertake this, which will
require belttr wharfage In Sou Fran
cisco and the chartering of a line of
steam BcbiHinets to mid from Yaqulna.
We have abundant capital to carry
out our plans, but cannot go oil with
them except In a limited wuv until
the appeal case is settled. I expect to
go over the road, nnd we will then de
teimine upon how aud when that ex
tension will be commenced. We ex
pect to build some eucli year until we
finally carry out our plun for un east
em connection. I have had reports
from Eastern Oregon, and realize that
a great traffic across t he mountains
awults the udveut of a railroad."
Mr. Hammond is naturally pleased
that a new survey has been ordered at
Yaqulna, ai d has confidence that this
harbor will receive just recognition
aud appropriation for further improve
ment. He will probably go to Yaqu
lna today, when he will see the steam
ship Lakuie that comes iu without
trouble drawing eighteen feet of water.

The Populist Goes for Its Delinquents.
The Populist goes for Its delinquent
subscribers In th - following very ener
getic milliner: The Oregon Populist Ib
one reform publication which has
come to the point where something
more substantial than promises must
be forthcoming. We do not ask you
to come and make us a gift, but we do
say that the money owed by our delin
quents must be paid or we will be
forced to the conclusion that about
one-half the populis's in this county
are men void tit any principle except
selfishness. If you want your paper
call in and p iy "foi It if you do not
want it act the part of h nestmeu and
pay for what you have had. Don't
force us to consider you bilks and per
sons trying to reap the bent fits of our
luoor and expense. Perhaps those
who owe us for subscriptions are not
aware of the fact. Unless we hear
from them this month we shall bo
compelled to notify them by publish
ing a list of delinquents, withamouuU
due.
A Needle in His Throat.
John Snyder a Grande Ronde
fiouiier, has been troubled for a long
time with some obstruction in his
throat. Lust week he went to a
doctor in La Grande, who, after an ex
amination, with considerable difficulty
succeeded in extracting, with the aid
of forceps, a needle which had lodged
crosswise of the windpipe. The re
moval of the same was a source of
much gratilicatbiu to Mr. Snyder, who
is at a loss lo know how the needle be
came lodged there, as it baa not been
the habit to include needles in the
liiiiiily mi'iiit. His tl.tory is, however,
that the needle must have been iicci
dcnllly dropped Inlo his foud.
Gossip's Should Read.
"Thou shall not bear false witness."
"The devil has a great many tool",
but a lie Is a bundle that fits them all."
"Deliver me from the candid
friend."
"A gossip is the chiefest handwork
of the devil and is made in his own
image."
"Liars should have good memories."
"Judge lint lest ye be judged."
"Keep your own hearth i,wept clean
and you'll have no time to look after
that of your neighbor."
"Believe only half that you see und
none that you hear.
Cannot He Excelled.
Oregon has been benefited by the
lessons taught by the hard times dur
ing the past two years, and ill the
future more reliance will be placed on
her resources. Heretofore, every com
modity has beeti Imported, aud the
money sent away. It is to be hoped
that ill the future our producers will
export instead of Import, aud this will
lead to Independence and wealth.
Oregon eggs, butter, hams and bacon
are good enougli for any one, and can
not be excelled afly where.
The Mint Shortage,
