GENERAL MANAGER O'BRl EN of (ho Southern Pa cific has announced that his company will .mild a new railroad from Eugene to Coos Bay. The announcement probably follows an attempt by lo cal people to construct a railroad and is a repetition of the tactics employed so long to keep Oregon bottled up by scaring out bona fide builders. In Roseburg bets are being made at si to I that the rail road from Eugene to Coos Ray will never be built by the Southern Pacific. It can be built from Roseburg with only sixty-live miles of railroad, as against 1125 from Ku gene and a long funnel, but the Southern Pacific won't build either unless forced to. Five to one is a good bet against the Southern Pacific ever building any new lines in Oregon, save as in the Oes ehutes canyon, to block some real builder., A few .real's ago, -Sir. O'Brien announced a railroad from Drain to Coos. A bluff was made ou starting con struction enough work done to scare off competition, and then work ceased. Last year, when there seemed a prospect that an inde pendent road would be built from Grants Pass to the sea, Mr. O'Brien announced that the Southern Pacific would build a line. It killed the rival road but no road has been built by the Southern Pacific or will lie, unless Hill builds from Medford. It is not so long ago that Mr. O'Brien announced tlit building a railroad through Malhucr Canyon across cen tral Oregon from the east. It is still on paper, and likely to stay there, along with other Ilarrinian system extensions. A Eugene paper says that Mr. O'Brien "will never al low his word to jeopardized." It is to laugh.

" , AINULLION and a half dollars is a large sum of money though not any too large, and probably not large enomrli. to construct all the permanent roads Jackson county needs But before the people are asked to vote up on the expenditure, it is but right that the public be fully taken into confidence by the county court, the methods ol construction outlined, the specifications adopted and the routes chosen for permanent improvement be made known. . It is true that everyone thinks he understands road building and that there are fifty-seven varieties of roads already in Jackson county, few of which are upon right lines of permanent road building. It is true that people who do not understand conditions and others too ignorant to understand and still others with irons in, the tire will find fault and criticise. But no matter what the results this is to be ejected. This paper favors good roads and large expenditures for them, but it thinks it a mistake for the county to at tempt to build roads itself, and a mistake for the county to make large expenditures for road building machinery. Roads should be contracted according to approved speci fications and the specifications lived up to. Let the con tractor furnish the machinery and stand its wear and tear and loss. Without a doubt the county court will express itself sat isfactorily upon all points at issue and the progressive i)eo ple of Jackson county can pull unitedly for a system of permanent highways.
