The fmsactlou wia looked ujioulu Wall llrw-t as one of the -most Important I lUiiouneeuients of the year, as it Is j flight to have impot taiifc beuiing i 'U the proJiKtta of the tioulds for the '""tension of their system to the j'Vlrie Coast throng h the recently - - v J Ul f viiu " "king house of IClihu, Loeb & Co., ,H.,j iu tllH tlty , iiiioimet'd to-day Its purchase from jry, of the Deuv ""k'aidted WesU-rn 1'aclllc Hallway, jlili-li U to ruu from near Salt Jtke. L'tah, to San Francisco, and of xvhlih a number of Gould railroad nieu are directors. While uo au iiounccment was made of the pur pose for which these funds are raised the belief is that it is to further the- Gould plan toward both the Atlan tic and Pacific Coasts. Wall street's understanding from the 'purchase of these bouds by Kuhu, Loeb & to. waa that It meant a better understanding with the J'euusylvanla interest and no friction with the Jin rrlmau Interests, for which the banking bouse also acts. At a meeting of the board of direct ors of the Weteru 1'acllllc Compauy today, 1'ivsldent cr & Klo Grande, was elected vice-president of tbe Western racllic. This U regarded as ludlcatlve of tlie interest the Den ver & Klo Grande and other of the Gould lines have In promoting the Hue from Salt Lake City to San J-'ruuclsco. The mysterious John loe Indicted before the federal grand Jury last spring in connection with laud frauds, has turned out to be Guy H uff, a barteudcr at Eugene, who was arrested t he other duy. cadet at West Point. And he says he hopes the grandson of Jackson will show the mil itary genius of his giandfalher. His garcelul action, also, in proxiding a place lor the x-enerahle Confederate General, Senator Coikrell of Missouri, at tt salary of 7,500, is warmly appreci ated by the veterans in grey. Among the bills which will be intro duced the coming session are Mr. Over Btree'l's for the protection of the Presi dent ol the United States. When Con gress adjourned this bill was in confer ence, i The pure food bill he called up, but has slender chances of being adopt ed. Some of its requirements are con sidered to he loo drastic. The Woman's Chiisl.iiin Temperance I'niou wil! have a big lobby in Washington, urging the pattfiiigi.' of the Hepburn J) illiver bill, lo contrjl inter- s'ale trullic in liipior; the McCumber bill forbidding the sell ingef Hj!ir vrnr.erit l,'iilditi!S and soldier's homes, and the bill pro hlpiting the opium trwtiic. These women also want Senator 8 moot un seated. Congressman Green of It. I., will introduce a bill makiug hours of labor throughout the United tatei uni form. This ia forlorn hope as it would require a constitutional amendment. The President of the Society for the prevention of Cruelly to Animals, in this city, Mr. C. A. Snow, informs your corresprndent that President ltoosevelt is actively interested in the promotion of kindness to animals. In a recent message to Congress he recommended that special care and kindness be showb superannuated horses aud mules, that hud been in Government service, lie is vp posed to docking orshesring horses. While the 1'resideut is known as a hunter, it will be remembered that he has liuuted only ferocious aud carniverous auimals those that are destructive to deer, sheep and cattle. lie does not shoot small birds or game. Hecently a Boston paper published an accouut of cruelty to a Thanksgiving turkey by the ltoosevelt children iu the White House grounds and represented the J resident as enjoying the performance. There was no word of truth iu the story tor the'turkey was killed and dressed iu Khode Island before it was shipped to Washington aud tlie Koowevelt family did not see it until it w as served on the table. As a punishiueut and a warning to mendacious Journalists the President elected by the counties and paid a salary regulated by the county court. This law would not effect the district attorneys elected last June, but would go into effect so as to cause county attorneys to be elected at the expiration of the terms now being serx-ed by State district attorneys. of the land frauds Is to confirm his suspeclon of Binger Hermann. The secretary has only directed Investi gation in eases where he had reason to believe Hermann could be found implicated or have his name involv ed' in some way, notwithstanding the fact that greater frauds in the states of Montana and Colorado, and lu fact ail Western states, have leen brought to his notice. He has shown a desire to first prose cute those In which he. could involve Mr. Hermann." The above Is the substance of a Washington dispatch to the Oregoniau.

SulmuilusJ uud Wuru lo bvtuiu 4nis tills the 30th day ofSovemhen, JU04. W. J. MOORE Notary I'ubllc for Oregon A few facts About Ihe Bank of lakevlew. Jt has a Capital Stock, fully paid, of 1)0,000.00, which la the. larg est paid up Capital Stock of any Bank In Oregon south of Salein. Its Net Surplus of 50,080.00, is more than the eutire paid up Cap ital Stix-k of any other Dank lu southern Oregon. IU eutire earnings are passed Into a Surplus Fund which added to its paid up Capital Stock amounts,, on this date, to tlie sunt of 149,0(59.00. This amount, which Is the Banks own money, places It among the strongest and most substantial of tlie larger Dunking Institutions of the State. Jt has never lost & dollar, during Its entire history, by bad louns or otherwise. - It has never foreclosed a mortgage or begun a suit for the collec tion of any of its own loans or accounts. It has never received or loaned any money for outside money speculators, therefore, Its customers are protected from the forced payment of all such loans. It is owned, controlled and managed, Ly successful business men vyho have long resided In Lake County and who individually and col lectively own larc and valuable property jnter-ts In h County. With all of these advantages the Bank of Uikeview is now better prejmred than ever to extend to Us customers pud patrons every accommodation that Is consistent with a const rx at! ve and iegitl' iuate Dunking business.
