RAILROAD TO OREGoN.-After mentioning that the
contract has been let to construct hundred and fifty
miles Of railroad in Oregon, commencing at Portland,
and running thence through Oregon City French Pai-
RE, Salem, Albany Corvallis and Eugene City the Val
leo Recorder asks-"What Butte county friends
doing railroad matters:" II thinks we should push
the road up the Sacramento Valley to meet the Oregon
road at the State line and that Oregon and California
viii just begin prosper when Vallejo and Portland are
connected by railroad. We incline to the opinion
that the road is about completed as our Congressman
told when the bill granting lands in its aid was pass
cd in G5. that work would be commenced on it that
year This being the fact. under the impression
that the California and oregon Railroad COM
nleted! II not it must be because its Butte county
friends are principally running for .'orfs' We
oeed however to that Oregon is going ahead with
that portion Of the road lying within her State limits
It may have the effect awaken interest in those who
have the California portion of ii charge and perhaps
something may yet be accomplished We incline 10 the
opinion however, that nothing VIII be accomplished
unril after the present political campaign The most
promising feature in connection with the Oregon road
is the progress being made by the Vallejo railroad COM
pany. Should they complete the road 10 the Oregon
State line they viii find themselves in possession of
valuable and most important improvement 1t is
IN our estimation destined to be the most profitable
railroad in California particularly portion be-
tween Feather river and Vallejo. When completed from
the latter place to 0royie link OF hundred fifty
miles up tho natural and perfectly practicable
Feather river and the Beckwourth pass will connect
with the Union Pscifc railroad in Nevada thus making
