COW rUKUIt CANYON. Tlin Jtvmsirkiililo Illockndu In Tlint Mountain Vnrtt. Ashland, Or., Feb. 21. The first mall from the outside woild will enter this valley today, after a blockade arising from the California snows for over n month. Report from the wrecking force in Cow Creek canyon now indicate) thai the damages to the railroad are much greater than at first anticipat ed. Now It is generally understood that the railroad people have abandoned all iiopes of clearing out the big West Fork slide, but will build three mile of entirely new road around it, on the opposite side of the canyon beyond the big slide. Many miles of track will be almost entirely rebuilt also. An old resident and prominent Oregon surveyor furnishes the Journal the following description of COW CKXEK CANYON. Cow Creek canyon in the South ern part of Douglas county is now the preat barrier to a speedy resum ing of railroad tralllc between Port land and 'Frisco. Cow Creek heads In the Cascade mountains between the waters of the Rogue and South Umpqua river. It runs nearly west for thirty miles, and then forming a curve to the north and then back to the east, empties into the Umpqua river near Riddle' station. From the mouth of the creek by Canyon- vllle. along the old stage road, through the "big" canyon, it is only about fifteen miles to the upper val ley, a distance of more than lllly miles by the creek. The R. R leaves the old stage road at Myrtle creek, eight miles from the big ean jou, and crossing the south Umpqui. river passes Riddle-i' station, and enters the cauyo'i piupcr some three miles south of the latter station. The construction of the road from ibis point to near Glend.ile, a dis tance of twenty-live miles is but lit tle above, ordinary high water mark, and many places the road-bed was constructed iu and along the bed of 1 lie stream, crowding its territory and much Increasing its powers for dan ger. The stream is a very rapiu one and as it seems, lias almost wiped the railroad out of existence I hrougli this canyon. There are seven tun uenls within this distance, and three bridges of considerable importance. One across West Fork, a stream that comes from tho west, and two bridges across the creek. The mountains on each side of tho creek are exceedingly steep, and landslides are a common annoyance. There being no road through tliis canyon, travel will be compelled to take con veyance at Riddle go til rough (he big canyon and take railroad again at Gleu'daie. ANOTHER ENTERl'MSE. Salem to Have a Siconl lr:i Foun dryArticles Filed and Work to he Pushed Forward. For some time the fact has beau realized that Salem was in need of a second iron foundry and articles of incorporation li ivo been liled with the secretary of state, by W. T; Gray, C. A. Gray and John Ilolinan, all of Salem, to con duct a general foundry, machine and repair shop, and other business incident to such an institution. Tho company incorporates with a capital stock of $25,000, divided into share of $100 each. The news (if tiiis new venture will be hailed with delight through out the country. Mr. IIoliu.ui will be the manager of the firm, and he is so well known that it is Useless to speak at length upon hi abilily. He was forsjveral years foreman of Drake's iron foundry and la con sidered one of the be3t machinists and workmen In his Hue on the coast, Most f the stockholders are competent ufhanioi and have had experience i i thtf business. A Jouu.n'AL reporter called on the gentleman interested iu the matter and learned that tho incorporators will settle upon a location at an early date, and expect to be In full operation inside of sixty days. A nuinlx-T of sites have boeu offered io the company. Tho uu.v establUhmant will give Bteudyeinp'oymeiii tontletiHttwuity men and will be a credit to the ei y.

What It i not two month since the Jouk.val commenced Its system of advertising in the East, yet it is al ready receiving mauy return of Its bread cast upon the waters. Wo be lieve In advertising and conse qnent'y spend considerable iu set ting fortli the merits of the Capital Journal. About a month ago we published n special edition for circu lation in the East.. It was noticed by some of the best papers of the E-ist, nnd has brought us nearly a hundred replies during the past ten days. From among these wo pre sent a few to show wh.it iuterest is being manifested in Salem and Or egon iu general. Mr. J. W. Murphy, editor of the Burlington, Iowa, Post, writes: The possibilities of Oregon nre simply beyond comprehension at tho pres ent day. I envy you your oppor tunities. J. F. Kempker, uj Missouri valley, Towa, says: "Please send tne a copy of your piper this week and next. I wo'ild like to read up some about your wonderful country." Four parties Miave writen from Wichita, Kan., for pipers, all of whom have been supplied. Salva tion is f.ee with the Journal. A gentleman from Amherst, Mas wants to know, 1st, The price of farming land. Prices range from $10 to 100. See real estate ads. 2d, What could a man with $10 )0 do out there? A sensible man with good judgment and nerve coudmakeu fortune with it, and harl work in five years. A fool could squander It here a quickly as anywhere. 3d, How cold tiro your winters? It seldom "freezes up," and zero weather Is almost an utfO Kll JWI1 tlllillllUj' till, IJIVU pi-ii-ua 1)1 provisions. See market reports. 5 h, Would it pay foship furniture? LNo, not from east of the Rookies, for hoa-e furnishing here are almost as cheap as in the E 1st. He says in e inclusion, "there are a number of my neighbors Interested In this let ter, and would like to leave this poor worn-out land." Oregon Is the most desirable ntate on tho co.ist to live in and there is no country in the world oilers more advantage to the industrious than the Willamette valley. W. D. Fence, of Hinoock Cotnty, Minn., wants to know what time he can get on Ian 1 here, siys the railroad camp my there gives seven years, with 7 percent, interest. You can get as good time here, and not de.il witha railroad monopoly either. An old veteran at Plankingtoii.. S. D., says: "I am living iu the land of the Dakota, and the great est fault I find Is the Intense cold. I served three years iu the war and can't stand tho cold. If your cli mate suits, there are m my of my comrade here Who would like to go too." As tliis come from the border of the great Sioux reservation just thrown open for settlement nt$1.25 an acre, our friend's letter shows about how much it is worth. If vou would bo comfortable iu your old age and enjoy your deolinlu years us an old soldier deserves, come to the beautiful valley of the Willamette. A young pedagog from Liwernce, Mass., asks: 1st. Have you good schools? Yes, Salem not only ha several good colleges, seminaries and private schools, hut has one of the best public school systems in the in tellectual west. 2nd. What of the country schools, and the wages of teachers, male and female? From $35 to $50. Sex cuts no .figures. Competency is tlio only criterion. 3rd. Of manufactures, and wages of laborers? Silent has xaw mills, grist mllNi woolen mills, sash door factories, foundries and fruit ovapo tors, bjsldej ni.Miy other manufac turing interests iu operation and prospect. No common laborer gets lea than $1.00 per day, and many $2. Mechanic, from $5 to $5. 4th. What must I pay lor a respectable (not extravagant) dretfl sui ? The writer will simply stale that he re cently purchased what Is 'or boiiio time to be known as his Iwst, toutety suit fir tho hum of $17.60. How ever, s nue people hole we..r better clothe than newtjiaper men. On the whole.clothln,? is nb.iutns cheap here a iu tluiiiiil lie sla'c. The Jouux.u. cannot answer all the letters tluu received, mid gives the above as a fair average, hoping "tho questions answered will o-ivor .nearly all that utuy w naked. ciuriiiT emmr.

Grant; tho report of the referee referred back to him to report findings as to whether or not ceitalu amounts of wheat for wliLh receipts were issued by Grant were actually in the ware house at tho time and were the prop erly of said Grant, and several other facts of a Hko character.
