It is with much regret that we have to
announce the death of Mrs. Maxwell,
wiie’ofex-Scnator J. W. Maxwell,which
look place at her home near Tillamook
City on Sunday morning. She had
tree« in poor health for several months,
but it was only about four days before
her death that she was taken worse.
Everything was done for her that could
be bv loving relatives and friends until
death claimed her. Mrs. Maxwell wns a
woman who was loved and respected by
nil who knew her, and was a good wife
and affectionate mother.
The lunerai service was conducted by­
Rev. D. L. Schrode, pastor of the M.E.
church on Monday afternoon, which
was attended by a large number of rela­
tives and friends, who followed the de­
ceased to the Oddfellows’ cemetery, thus
showed their last token of respect and
sympathy for the deceased and the ber­
eaved family. The Fairview Grange, of
which deceased was a member, hud
charge of the funeral, the service being in
the Grunge hall.
Mrs. Esther Ann Maxwell was born in
Ohio on the 13lh March, 1845, and wns
>1 daughter of William L. and Mary Ann
Graham. She was the voungest of a
family of ten children. She wns married
in Illinois to Mr. John W. Maxwell and
then went to Missouri and from there to
Nebraska. In 1880 thev crossed the
plains with ox team and remained in
Eastern Oregon two winters.
They
stopped at Hillsboro for a short time,
and came to Tillamook County in the
fall ol 1883, where they settled near Ne­
tarts. To this union were born nine
children, of whom five, with her hus­
band. survive her viz , William Martian,
Riley mid Robert Marshall Maxwell and
Mrs. Bertha Jane Carlson, ot Tillamook,
and Mrs. Mary Elnor Jones, of Silver

NOTICE.
Reported that Hill has Bought
the A & C. Railroad
Work on the extension of the railway
to Tillamook is expected to begin this
Summer, and, as the coast route has
been selected, its construction will afford
the rroit attractive scenic line on the
Coast, as well us open up and make
directly tributary to Astoria nnd Port­
land a remarkably rich timber and agri­
cultural district.
During the past lew weeks, the Ham­
mond interests, w hicli own about four
miles of water front preperty in the vi.
cinity of New Astoria, have purchased
200 acres of land adjoining this on the
south and abutting on the Fort Stevens
military reservation. For this they paid
$300 per acre. It is to lie used as a yard
for the sawmill which the company is
to erect this Summer, a plant that will
l»e one of the largest and l>est equipped
in the Northwest, and will employ over
1000 men. The logs to supply this mill
are to be obtained from the company's
vast timber holdings in the Necanicum
River district, extending as far south as
Tillamook County, In the section that is
to 1« tapped by the extension of the
Astoria railroad.
Not Officially Confirmed.
rush orders came to have abstracts
prepared at once of the title to all the
property which the railway company
owns in this vicinity, including the
holdings of the old South Coast road,
which was acquired by the A. & C. R
some years ago.
It appears that the original abstracts
which were in the hands of Mr. Ham.
inond were destroyed during the San
Francisco fire.
Several men were
immediately put to work, and the ab­
stracts were prepared and forwarded to
New York in ti e shortest possible lime.
Again it is asserted that a few weeks
ago a contract was made between the
Hammond Lumber Company and the
railway by which the latter agrees to
haul the lumber company's logs to its
mill at a specified rate for a term of
years. These things, coupled with the
fact'that persons who are closely
connected with either the Hammond or
Hill interests havo been quietly purchas­
ing real estate in this vicinity for some
weeks, have caused a belief, which is
considered a certainty, that the reported
sale lias been consumsted.
This belief is augmented by President
Hill's oft-repeated assertion tl.at the
lumber trade is one of the greatest
classes of business, which the railroads
are af'er, and the knowledge that by
purchasing the Astoria road and extend­
ing it to Ysquinn he will make directly
tributary to his roads the output of the
most extensive timber belt in Oregon.—
