GRANTS PASS ROAD SAID TO BE FINANCED GRANTS PASS, Oro., Jan. 29. J. O. Ulggs loft Thursday for Chicago, Vhoro ho was called on important business mattors connected with tho CiruntH Pass & Rogue It Ivor railroad. H. W. "Lamport, an eastorn represen tative, wired Mr. RIggs that tho rail road projeat wns praotlonlly financed and tho capitalists wero rondy to completo negotiations. Mr. Klggs Is oxpocted to loturn to this city within two wooks with tho men who nro in terested In tho proposition. Upon racont investigation it was nhown that tho dally tonnage for tills railroad will be much grontor than mio 4vrwvr vbduuhvu, A BUSINESS NOW Hint there is slight prospect of exlensive rond work the coming summer, the time should ho utilised in making ready most thoroughly For the highway con struction temporarily delayed by the supreme court, A thorough survey of the proposed system of, perma nent highways should bo made, and estimates furnished as to cost of each road, with data regarding most available and best suited material for surfacing. .In other words, detailed plans should he worked out for each stretch of road contemplated and tho estimates of cost thus furnished should form the basis of the bond tesuo deemed essential to construct the same. JW preparing complete surveys and specifications in advance much time and money will be saved when actual construction is commenced. .Moreover, all will know in advance approximately what each mile of highway will east, how much money is needed and where the money will be spent. llighwav construction should not be gone at blindlv. It is a business proposition to the taxpayer, ;just as street paving is to the city property owner, and as the city owner knows in advance what the improvements will cost, so should the county taxpayer. The county court had asked the cooperation of the federal government, and request I'd that a road expert be sent, in case the bonds were held legal, to go over the proposed system of permanent roads and make recom mendations. This cooperation was promised, and only. awaits iormal application. Now that the bonds have hecn declared illegal, and an enforced delav follows, there is no reason whv the count v should not be benefiting by this federal cooperation. It will be forthcoming if requested, it will cost the county comparatively little and be of inestimable value in future construction. The county court should secure at once the services of oi'o of the government experts, who will bo sent upon re quest by the good roads section of tho Department of Agriculture, and have complete surveys, specifications and data prepared, so that when it is possible to issue the bonds there need be no delay. CATTLE MARKET WELL SDPPLIED PORTLAND, Jan. 2D. Ito ceipts for tho weok hnvo boen: Cat tle, 32SI: calves, 54; hogs, 25S2; sheep, 623B; horses, 115. Every division was well supplied and the markot for cattlo held up the first halt of tho weok, but toward the end of tho week there was a ten dency to wenkon. There wero quit a number of buyers presont and sev eral butchers from surrounding ter ritory Increasing tho domain! for light killors. Cows nnd holfars sold up to the price standard of tho woek previous, but heavy steers were somowhnt weaker nnd might be quot od as 10c to lSe lower. The mar ket was hungry for calves and paid ?S for tho only good offering. The hog market showed some weakness and was lfle te 16c lower at the clow of the week. This was In sympathy with I3aatrn markets where tremendous runs had a ten dency to cut prieas down. The sheep warkot was heavily sup plied but prlcog held up surprising ly well throughout. Hue so'd at $4.10 nnd wethers at $1.50, which gives an Idea of tho strength of tho market. OREGON'S NEED OF PROGRESSIVE POLICIES (Eugene Guard.)
