(Eugene Register.) The Register was authorized jester- day to announce that the Oregon Coast & Eastern Railroad company that has been looking over the W ¡1. lamette valley for the past year lias secured ample financial backing and will immediately begin the constrnc- tion of a railroad from Portland to Tillamook, and thence southward to Coos Ba y and then to Humbolt bay in California, touching the intermediate harbors along the coast, including Ya- quina, Siuslaw, Umpqua and Alesa. The part that interests Eugene the most is the fact that a line will also be run from the coast through Eugent across the mountains to Ogdon where connections will be made with several transcontinental lines. The Political Bosses’ Candidate Prof. Hawley is a tool in the hand» oi Salem's political bosses. A very humil iating position for a person of the pro fessor's dignity to occupy. But such is the case. The president of Willamette University is, then, the political bosses’ candidate for congress. Wait until after the primary and then see what the voters think of Salem’s political machine candidate. The day of boss rule in politics is a thing of the past, but it is not surprising that Salem should still cling close to the political machine methods. Prof. Hawley ought to have known better to have tied himself up with the (political bosses, for he is too good a man to be mixed up in all the dirtv work his backers are resorting to to.defeat Walter L, Tooze. Here is what the Silvertonian-Appeal has to say on this point : “ Salem is evidently trying to follow the old and long established rule of claiming all state and county officers, and it is not so very much surprising after all that a few of the old machine gang have centered their ambition upon the unfortunate professor. It is a pity that they will use a good man—innocent of the motive—to fight their old battles. “ When the correspondent in Salem cities about twentv-one of the old line leaders in the party, he has expressed practically all of Hawlev’s support in that city. 7 here are hundreds of young republicans in Salem, who are interested in Mr. Tooze’s candidacy and who are working hard for him in this campaign The day has gone by when a few old sore head machine politicians can govern the nomination of candidates, and under the direct primary law the farmers and country districts are the people, and they will improve the op portunity this year to regain that which has l>een lost through the Salem hog in years past. ” People of the First Congressional district know enough about Mr. Tooze to appreciate him. He is the kind of a representative they want in Congress He stands for the interests of the com mon |>eople, and here is where he is re ceiving his support, in Marion county, Curry county, Coos county, Clackamas county anil in fact the entire southern portion of the state, besides receiving a good vote front Yamhill and Washing ton, the home of Mr. Huston, ex-demo cratic candidate.” ANOTHER trunk line .

Har riman, A. W. Foster and E. P- Riplrv, of the Santa Fe Radroad, have, it is said agreed upon a general plan for railroad extension into the Northern territory. A new company is being organized, according to report, which is to do three things : First, to tase over Ripley’s San Fran cisco & Northwestern lines, with its valuable Eureka terminals. Second, to take over Harriman and «C Foster’s California & Northwestern line between Willits and Tiburon and this city, and probably the North Shore or Sausalito road. Third, to build the 100 mile gap north of Willits to the southern end of Ripley s San Francisco & Northwestern road, 31 miles south of Eureka.

The immediate object of Messrs. Har riman, Foster and Ripley in wanting a joint rail line to Eureka, it is said, is to tap the great redwood forest district in Humboldt County and build vp a big lumber traffic with the East.
