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

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
