was made to Mrs. Duniway.

From wadsworth. Nevada, to The
Dalles.

The Lake County Examiner
learns that the Nevada and Ore
gon Railroad is graded out to the
junction, and that there is twenty.
two miles of track laid and in run
ming order. Reno people are dis
posed to scout the idea that the
Central Pacific proposes to build a
road from Wadsworth to The
Dalles by way of Goose lake,
though there are good grounds
that such is the intention of the G..
P. folks. He says that in the event
the road is started from Wads-
worth there will be ample capital
to push the work fast enough to
reach the Oregon line much sooner
than the n. & o. can, and it is the
universal opinion that If that road
is started in earnest the Nevada
and Oregon will branch off into
Plumas county, and abandon the
project of coming to Oregon. The
objective point of the proposed
road from Wadsworth will be The
Dalles, and if commenced it will
be built as fast as men and money
can do the work.
