U. 5. ENGINEER OFFICE,
PORTLAND, Greg, Sept. Is, 1873 (
Colonel: After completing the survey at
Cape Foulweather, proceeded to make the
examination of Alsea River and Bay, as di-
rectedfn your letter of instructions
The Alsea enters into the sea IL miles
south of the mouth of the Yaquina. The
road connecting the two points lies along
the sea-beach, except for the distance OF II
miles opposite Seal Rock, where the coast
line is rocky, rising vertically out of the sea,
at low tide line.
The river rises in the Coast Range, 80
miles in direct line from the ocean, Its gen.
eral courss is westward.
The principal tributaries are Fall Creek
and Fire Rivers, the former entering from
the north, 2S miles by river from the sea.
the latter 6 miles lower. Drift Creek, which
flows into Alsea Bay at its head, is a tidal
slough OF lagoon navigatable for small boats
for miles. It does not contribute to the
volumn of the river proper, although it is
included in the same general drainage basin,
which covers an area of 800 square miles,
The tide extends II miles, from the head
of the bay to the foot of line of rapids
where my personal examination ended
Here the stream is so feet wide and from 8
to feet deep at low tide Above it is a
mountain stream navigated only by Indian
canoes, with swift current and rocky he'd
Below it is a tidal channel with no percepti-
BILE river current, widening gradually down
to the mouth of Drift Creek, where It is 300
feet across.

THE WEsEsInE RAILROAD.

In another column we publish the
proceedings of an adjourned railroad
meeting, at the court house, last Sat
urday evening. As will be seen, by
those proceedings and former notices
in the GAZETTE, our people are very
much exercised over the location Of
the railroad depot and route of road
through the city.
This is matter of the most vital
Importance, and one which, we fear,
many of our citizens do not fully
realize. While We do not favor some
of the conditions imposed by MIR.
Kohlcr, in his letter of recent date,
we are decidedly opposed to allow
ing the railroad to run back of the
the city. Such policy would he
suicidal to the best interests of the
city, and would not be good policy
for the railroad. The history of Sa
lem and Albany, in regard to this
matter, should be warning to Cor
wallis. We are decidedly in favor of
having the road pass up Water, or
First street, with the depot located
on the same, and we regret, exceed
ingly, that any misunderstanding or
collision should occur between the
managers of the road and our citi
zens. Our interests, and those OF
the railroad, are mutual, and steps
should be Immediately taken to heal
any contentious that may have arisen.
Instead of holding mass meetings
and passing resolutions, which have
no binding force, we think it would
be far more satisfactory to invite Mr..
Kohler to be present at meeting oi
our citizens, so as to have free and
full consultation, and more perfect
understanding as to what is desired
by both parties. We hope some
steps will be Immediately taken to
secure harmony and perfect under
standing between the railroad com.
pany and our citizens. 1t is a mat.
ter of too much Importance to be
trifed with. Upon the proper loca.
tion of the track and depot, in a great
measure depends the future of Cor
wallis. A conflict between the road
and the city authorities will be pro-
dnctive of irreparable injury to both,
as in the case of Salem. Let us have
the railroad on Water street, provid-
ed, of course, that Mr.. Kohler will
modify his demands, as we are in
formed he will. Let us have an un-
derstanding, at once. The sooner
the matter is settled the better for all
concerned.
