REJOICING IN STATE a line into the Nehalem country. Mr. Reid is the projector of the Nehalem road. He built the original Seaside toad from Astoria along tbo coast south from the mouth ot the Columbia river, now a part of the Astoria Jt Columbia river railroad, and also the Sheridan branch, now a part of the Southern Pacific system. “It has lieeu incorrectly staled,’’ said Mr. Reid, “that our contracts call for completion of the first terr miles from Hillsboro before Decem ber 1; the contracts call for completion before December 31, and the chief engineer, Mr. Davie, telle me the work can be done easily within thirty days from today. Much of the bridge work has been done and some of the grading. We can carry out the terms of the contract and the expectation) ot tho Loudon bondboldeis are to be met. ” SAYS HARRIMAN IS FIGHTING ROAD. Mr. Reid alleges that the Harriman interests have employed obstructive tactics to prevent tho consummation of the Nehalem company’s plans by cabling iuaocurute statomouts to Lou don. “But we have received word from our Loudon people,’’ said Mr Reid, which indicates that they are not deceived and we are confident that we will be able to carry to completion the plans for our road aud that before long we will be hauling freight and passengers into our city over our line.” The Nehalem company claims to have received from the llarriman people a proposal to give them an ex clusive tonnage agreement with aeon nection at Hillsboro. “We rejected, and shall reject, all such offers,” said Mr. Reid. Our plans call for a connection with both the Southern Pacific and the North ern Pacific for entrance into Portland, and we shall never consider any other arrangement. The idea is to bavo the two connections to give shippers the option of routing over either the Southern Pacific or the Northern Pacific, ’o as to prevent the control of the traffic ftom passing into the bands of eitbor of those roads.” The first ten miles now under con struction is from Hillsboro northwest to Roy's Junction. The surveys of the four routes show that the maxi mum gradient will be 2 pet cent; most of the distance the grade is not mote than 1 per cont. The distance from not theiu route, which is looked on with the most favor by the company, is ninety-seven mlies: via tho Sheri dan route, which there is some talk of building by tho Southern Pacific, the distance is 120 miles. The cost of construction is said to lie not more than 825.000 a mile for tlm entire line equipped and ready for traffic.

Smith, an old book man, tells a most interesting story of how it feels to be buried alive, says the Los Angeles Record. For quo hour he lay at the bottom of a deserted mine shaft and was only saved by a dog that whined and howled at a neighbor’s house. Just after a recent storm Mr. Smith went prospecting in Deer canyon, a branch of the Pig Tejunga, in the San Fernan do range. ITe was removing some tim ber about the top of an old shaft, when the rotten wood gave way and carried him to the bottom of the shaft. A heavy load of timber and earth followed. Strange to say, he was uninjured and lay free from immediate danger in the dark, damp space left by the boards. Gloomy were the thoughts that filled '¡is mir.d as he lay there and thoughts ■f his past life and the friends he vould never see again, for the shaft vas one which had been covered over load and lost to the knowledge of the teighborhood for years. Moreover, it ’.as a mile and a half from the nearest louse. Once or twice he shouted, but ds voice sounded sepulchral as it echoed in muffled way between the •verhanging walls and reverberated in his cars. For one hour he lay there in his cramped position, while gloomy thoughts passed in frightful procession through bis mind. Fortunately, his little dog was with him. “B om ” is a particularly intelli gent dog, and after the accident to his maater went to the nearest house and acted so strangely that Mr. Walton, the owner, followed him to the shaft. There he found and rescued him. Superintendent Wiley made an nppor tionnient of all school moneys on hand last Monday.
