Mr. i'.lackman's speciality is to ad
vertise Kastern Oregon. Wool of
the tiuest quality will be selected
from l'.asiern Oregon Hocks and
placed on exhibition at St. Louis
and Liter forwarded to the Lewis
ami Clark exposition, which will put
Kustcrn Oregon tlockmasters in the
front rank. A local wool dealer will
collect the samples.
The finest growtli of bromus grass
that has come to our notice was
raiseil by .lames McCreary on his
West side ranch. A sample that he
brought in last week and left at this
otllee was three feet high. This is
the second year since the seed was
planted, and he will raise enough
seed from a half nere for about f
acres. Tills is a pretty good show
ing fonslderlng tliat the laud Is dry
and sandy, and no water was put
on it savo what fell from the heavens.
Thin demonstrates to a certainty
that fine hay crops as well as veg
etables can lie growu there without
water.

I Last-in railway journals report
1 the 1-ttin of a contract for a six.
j ti-en-iuile extension of the Nevada,
' California iv; Oregon Kailroad. This
will extend t he line north from Al
turas, Cat., to a point very close to
the Oregon Hue and not many miles
from Lakeview, the county seat of
Lake, one of the richest of Oregon's
interior counties. This road, while
not owned by the Harriman interests
Is strictly at their mercy, as it out
let is at Iteno, New, on the (Vntrnl
Pacific. At various times in the past
few years it has lieen reported that
the road had passed under the Har
riman ownership, but nothing defin
ite has ever been given out by the
railroad people. Nevertheless it is a
self-evident fact, that the Nevada,
California & Oregon can never lie a
valuable asset to any other road ex
cept those controlled by Harriman?
as it has no other outlet east or
west from Keno. Overtures madefor
its purchase have been met witli the
statement that it Is not in such
shape that it can be sold, a plausible
statement so long as its location
keeps it absolutely at the mercy of
Mr. Harriman.
The Nevada, California & Oregon
road, considered strictly as a local
line running north from Keno ami
developing Northern California, does
not concern Portland very much, but
the same road as a branch of the
Harriman system, pushed over the
Oregon line and dragged away some
if the best trade in the state, lie
comes an object of interest to all of
us. Without making extended
drafts tin the imagination, we can
easily picture the Harriman interests
working into Central Oregon from
the south, thus obviating the necess
ity for a move from this direction.
This would be strictly in line with
the Harriman policy to centralize all
railroad and steamship systems at
San Francisco, making all of the
territory south of the Mill-Mellen
zone tributary to California, and
leaving Oregon at the end of one of.
the spurs.
There is a strong probability that
the possession or control of this road,
which naturally cannot but harmon
ise with the Harriman policy, has
been a powerful factor In causing
the Indifference of Mr. Harriman
toward the opening of Central Ore
gon from the north and giving Port
land an opportunity to do business
with a territory which rightfully be-
