Oregon i'AciUc Kallroul.
The CorvalllB Times says It is
quietly rumored that the Oregon
Pacific road will soon go into other
humls and be built with cash in
stead of badly-kept promises and
lawsuit, or words to that efl'ect.
Tho history of tills enterprise since
its first Inception, nearly twenty
years ago, has been unfortunate In
many respects, and no credit to our
state. All sorts of expedients have
been resorted to to raise money and
to get work done. There is no de
uying that unusual business (net of
n certain kind has been displayed,
but it has not been of a credituble
Bord Too many men have been
ruined by trying to fulfill eoutracts
mid too many times have had to
liavo their vouchers down to a low
ligure to get something for hard la
bor performed for this company.
Tlioy had little else to work with but
not overvuluablo land grants and
over sharp wits, and these they have
made tho moit of and with such
apparent success as tho world sel
dom sees, Tho Times intimates
that the Chicago & Northwestern
company will probably take posses
sion at an early day, a consumma
tion most devoutly to be wished.
There Is no enterprise more impor
tant to Oregon than tho Oregon Pu
eitlo railway running through the
middle of our state, and with the
Chicago it Northwestern In charge
wo may oxpect that the work will
be rapidly pushed to completion.
Wheat Swindling Cm.
Suit has been commenced in Den
ton county by Hamilton & Job,
bankers of that place, against Elias
Kceny for $300 alleged to bo duo for
twenty bushels of wheat at $15 per
bushel. This is an Issue of the old
wheat swindling game which was
practiced upon severul farmers in
Linn county and was exposed.
Hogan, tho leader in tho swindling
scheme, was arrested hero but was
acquitted through some technicality
and was afterwards arrested in
Eugene. Keeney's note for $300 fell
into the hands of tho bank of Cor
vallis. Bimillar suits in the Eastern
states have been repeatedly decided
against the swindlers, and will prob
ably be in this state. Albany Iler-uld.
Sill cm nml Astoria It. It. ileum.
The railroad that is considered
certain of crossing the country from
Astoria either lo Halem or Albany,
or both, in tho Willamette valley,
will traverse a portion of Columbia
county. West Shore.
Work has been commenced at
Astoria on tho Astoria & South
Coast railroad, and it is proposed by
citizens of Salem to unite with those
ofMoMinnvllIo hi bringing tho road
Into tho valley to Galeni by tho way
of MoMinuville. When tho time
comes for action there is no doubt
that tho business men of tho city
will take hold of tho matter with
tho same energy tlioy have exhibit
ed in other enterprises. West
Shore.
lllds for railroad ties were opened
at tho o 111 uo of tho Astoria & .South
Coast railway company Monday.
There was evidently a misunder
standing of the specifications on tho
part of some of tho bidders which

Likes Prison Life.
William Darragu, convicted of
furnishing liquor to au Indian and
sentenced' to a year in the peniten
tiary from Portland was brought; "to
Salem yesterday. Darragh saya
"You may think I am a fool for
giving the snap uway to tho judgo,
but I like it. I was there for u year
and fouiiu the fare so line that I
think it is better than knocking
about on the cold charity of the
world. When my year is out I'll
tumble in again."
Tbe IlearilHlry Examination.
At Dallas tills afternoon the pre
liminary examination of O. P.
Ueardsloy charged with tho killing
of T. L. l'erryman atEola is in pro
gress. The city was expected to be
lull of people, as at an early hour
tills morning t,be roads in all direc
tions leading to the quiet county
seat were filled with teams from
the country. How the examination
may terminate is no conjecture. Mr.
lleardsley will, no doubt, be held
without bond to await tho action of
tho grand jury which meets soon.
Very Hear; Immigration
A Portland paper says that im
migration at present is beavlerthan
It has been for some time. Eastern
peoplo ure coming into the state in
large number. Every trulii Is
crowded and hotels ure filled to
overflowing. This heavy influx of
Immigration is even uoticeablo on
the streets, for hundreds of new
faces are daily to be seen.
Tho hotel men complain that they
can hardly una accommodations
for all who come, and often they are
obliged to turn people away. In
fact, some of the hotels are so crowd
ed, that their busses are sent to
meet trains but every other day.
Most of tho Eastern arrivals natur
ally go to second-class hotels, and it
is here that a person must look for
the greater number of intending
settlers. It is hard to give an ca
curate estimate of tho total number
of arrivals per day. A conservative
estimate could not be any less than
1000 per day. The average daily ar
rivals from the astern states in the
hotels in East Portland is about
twenty-five. The question Is asked,
Where do they all come fiom?
In most of the hotel registers tho
arrivals from Kansas take tho lead.
Michigan comes in a good second,
uud Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska,
Ohio, Dakota, and even Pennsyl
vania follow with a large quota.
All are in quest of land and webfoot
climate.

tho tendency to make prunes their

comparison with the Kuropean pro
duct, and even California does not
claim to be able to grow as good
prunes as Oregon. They bring the
highest price in the market."
