and on to tn front. lott.
The Baker City RertNe is in scstacics be-
cause the o. s. l.. is about to build machine
shops at Boomerang, ON the Payette river
about 100 miles east of Baker City and
claims it as evidence that the line Will be
extended to Baker City. VIII. re the next ma
chine shop will be. That fellow does not
require very strong evidence to convince.
He would make a good juryman IN trying
some some of the horse thieves who are In
fostng the country.
Ezra Band, sheriff, arrived from Mt,
Idaho Oh Monday evening, where lie had
been at the cali OF his family. lie reports
all now SO far recovered as to he about and
he thinks the diphtheria entirely eradicated
from their systems. The winter grain Is
turning out well on the Prairie, but the
spring sown does not promise we'll. lie
says that quite large number propose to
nav visit to Lewiston on the occasion OF
the appearance of Shermans circus at this
place, on the 18th. The timber back of Mt.
Idaho is burning to some extent, but he
thinks no danger need he apprehended ex-
ccpt that some cord wood is being destroyed.
WHERE THERE Is A WILL THERE is A
WAY.-Tne people north of us have for sew
eral months past been promised bridge
across the Clearwater, and a ma ority of the
tax payers Of the city had petitlpned the
| City Council to adopt means to have good
! free bridge constructed the present season
aud if found accessory to bond the city to
secure the object. Contractors have exam
| med the premises and made estimates of cost
varying from SO, 500 to 3d., 900, according
TO location and character. 1t was finally
settled upon that y. $. Miller 4 Son would
build across the slough and island for $i9,
500 and the Council agreed, by resolution,
| to accept with his otter and the contract was
to be signed as soon as he sent in his specl-
tications to correspond with his general state
ment. But on returning to Portland and
making more close extimates he writes back
that it Will require ga, 900, and here comes
the rub. The city, cannot under its charter,
exceed SO, 900 IN a bonded indebtednt IS,
and the other 81, coo is to be raised in some
other way Thus the matter is poised. To
us it seems that the money ought to be
raised and good faith preserved with the
people OF the north, and that the trade OF
the city will be Increased more, annually,
than the cost OF the bridge. Our dealers
ought to consider this matter IN truly bus
mess light. The citizens generally want the
bridge But We are told that there is al
under current that is working against the
measure. II there be let the public know
who is in the under current and what are
the grounds OF objection.
