must be observed from now until ad

Pendleton "The farmers and peo
ple, with a few exceptions, are much
pleased over tho prospect of a railroad
out through Pilot Rock," said Theodore
Beeney, a farmer residing five miles
from Pilot Rock. "Of course, there
are a .few moosbacks who can not be
come reconciled to the disappearance
of the crudo methods of 50 years ago,
and wish tho country to stand still. A
few of tho merchants oppose the road,
saying trade will all go to Pendleton.
Other towns on railroads live, and I
can not see why our little 'town will
not thrive as well as they."

MORE CONTROL OVER ROADS
Purpose of Law Proposed by Vart
County Courts of State.
Oregon City "The Clackamas coun
ty court, through the legislative dele
gation from this county, will seek to
have enacted at the present sessios of
the legislature law that will prove of
material aid to tbe various county
courts of the state in the building and
repairing of roads," remarked County
Judge Ryan.
"I have great faith in the eminent
domain theory which is being indorsed
by the different counties of the state,"
continued the Clackamas county judk'e.
The enacting of such a law will give
to the county court of each county the
right to condemn property for the es
tablishment of a new road, or the ap
propriation of additional property for
the improvement of roads already es
tablished, the right conferred being
Identical to those already enjoyed by
railroad corporations." It is also the
purpose of the Clackamas county court
to have passed a law regulating the use
tojwbich all roads shall be placed in
the matter of heavy traffic, and still
another measure that will place some
restrictions a to the use of automobiles
on the public highways.
Soon Open for Entry.
Grants Pass News has been received
here that the timber land in Southern
Oregon and Northern California which
the department of forestry announced
several weeks ago would be thrown
open for entry, is to be advertised at
once. At the expiration of 90 days
from the time the advertising begins
the lands will be ready for entry. The
sections involved cover a Urge area of
fine sugar and yellow pine timber in
Josephine county and part of tho sur
rounding counties, as well as sections
in Del Norto and Siskiyou counties,
California. In a portion of the tract
in Curry county is considerable red
wood, the only redwood in Oregon, and
the giant trees cuiu)are very favorably
with the famous "big trees" of Cali
fornia. The tract is valuable, in the
main, however, for the great amount
of yellow and sugar pine that it con
tains.
Douglas Mn Demand Good Roads.
Roseburg A delegation of represen
tativ men from a majority of the road
districts in Douglas county called upon
the county court in a body and present
ed their petition and resolutions asking
that the court take the necessary steps
to provide this county with three set
of modern roadbuilding machinery, in
cluding that number of rock crushers,
rollers, engines, etc. Enthusiastic
good roads arguments were presented,
and the matter was then taken under
advisement by tho court. It is believ
ed, however, that the court will act
favorably upon the matter and that a
large amount of good road building will
be done in this county this year.
Prizes for Fair Exhibits.
Oregon City At a regular meeting
the committee having in charge the
exhibit from this county that is to
be shown at the Lewis and Clark fair at
Portland in 1905 adopted a schedule by

ducers of Clackamas county the sum of
$150 for , the best samples of agricul
tural and other products of which the
exhibit will be composed. Three
prizes are offered for each sample, rang
ing from $5 for first prize to $1 for the
third. The contest is to conclude
April 13.
