1R .. Z. Z y. AND q. 3. l. RAIL
ROAD8.

The WasAiagtom Democrus makes the
effort following to clear up the mystery
Of certain railroad movements in East
ern Oregon and Idaho, of interest to our
people:
Al our nsiRhbors on the other side of
tho mountains are worrying over the
conflicting reports published BY every
reporter running about with "spaoe to
nu," We viii state to them that one
viewing the battle afar OF perhaps has
. clearer idea of the situation than they
tnemse!ves possess. The object of q
railroad Is to make monev, and to do
this they must secnre traffic. The q. r.
q n. 20. have made extensive prepAra-
tions to build upon the line 70 Baker
City a. far - Pelican station on the
edge Of Grand Ronde, and there they
have ceased. Were they to build no
further than this, they would at once
secure trade and travel enough to make
the route pay. But the completion of
the proposed Short Line Road being a
through route. would at once destroy the
Y. Il. d N. Co.'S business, consequently
It can b safely predicted that the O. Il.
n. viii build 20 Baker City, and pos
e1bly extend further. On the other hand
tho Short Line has reached the Wood
River country, and it 10 also projected
Tor . dietanCe which will bring it to
Weiser through . country that will yield
. ready trade. Whom Il gets beyond
that point It will be in profitlees coun-
Try, ono whose productions could be
taken out with single tram.
Then it Is evident that, should they
make any attempt to pass this point of
paying traffic, they will do so with a
vlew to controlling a through line to tide
water. They have already made prepa-
ratlons for q bridge at Burnt River Pass.
At that point the U. Il. & N. Co. are also
grading. This conflict caused a propo-
aition to 30 made by the o. Il. d n. Co.
to the Short Line Company, to connect
roads. No definite action was taken on
the matter at the time. though about a
month afterwards it was whispered
around that meeting was to be held
at Salt Lake, and negotiations were then
20 % 0pened between the rival COM
panies. This was in December. Moth
ing since has been heard of Cancellation
OF settlement of the complication.
When the o. B. 4 N. Co. started their
road-the Baker Branch Road-they
know their destination. They also were
aware of the Short Lines progress, and
the Short Line had its eyes open to the
action OF the o. Il. d N. Co. There is
one thing evident. the o. Il. d N. Co.
must nave started out with the intention
OF building through line, bat the sub
sequent requirement of the control of
the North Pacific rendered that plan
undesirable. Yet being aware that the
proposed route of tho o. B. d N. Co. was

TELEcRAPn MISTAKES.

Some strange freaks Of the telegraph
are occasionally heard of and the fol-
lowing has q savor Of the land o. cakes:
A young man, whom about to start for
his new parish, was unexpectedly dc.
tanned by the incspacity Of his presby-
terv to ordain him. In order to explain
his non-arrival at the appointed time,
he sent the following telegram to the
deaoons Of the church: "Presbytery
lacked . quorum to ordain." In the
course Of its journey the message got
strangely metamorphosed, and reached
the astonished deaeons in this shape:
"Presbytery tackled . worm ON to
ADAM" They were sorely discomposed
and mysti6ed, but, after grave consulta-
ton, concluded it was the minister's ia
oetious way Of announcing that he had
got married, and accordingly proceeded
70 6nd lodgings for two instead of enc.
We personally sympathize with the tel
egraph operators, FOR it often falls to
our lot to dsoiphsr such terrible hand
writing. that We are at our Wits end to
make head or tail Of it.

ReDsrt sn the Ceaserueaaen ef the g.,
W. ". 4 ,. c. Z. Z.
Some time ago Judge Jacobs, A. S.
Miller, and John Collins. members of
the Chamber of Commerce in this city,
we're appointed q committee to confer
with the Directors Of the Seattle, Walla
Wslla and Baker City Railroad Com
pany and to report not only the result
OF their conference, the prospects of
said company, and the reasons for the
construction Of a road such a. that pro-
posed BY said company. This commit
tee-through its chairman reported 70
the Chamber Last evening.
The report WAS signed by Judge ia
cobe and A. 8. Miller.
II first treated Of the motion and OBJ
jects Of the Chamber il spoke au-
thoritively and what were the modes
and manner Of its speaking.
II then went into . summary state
msns OF the reasons why the coal
In the bituminous coal fields directly
east of this city should be tributary to
this city. No more complete statement
has yet been given ON this subject, and
tho Chamber appreciating this fact, di-
rected its Secretary to have five hundred
copies OF the report printed in pamph-
Let form. The report is temperate in it's
language, and discusses the matter in
hand in q dignifed and considerate
manner.
First, 1t shows the said company are
required to raise, by subscription. $780,
600 for the stfOrty miles section, and
that, having accomplished this, the
amount necessary to complete the $50
tion Is pledged: and that $l35, 900 has
already been secured.
Second, A statement of the reasons
showing that this forty miles section
would be, from the business rendered,
and from the lumber and coal interests
necessarily tributary to it, one of the
best paying roads in the United States.
Third. The report shows that vast
quantities Of the finest magnetic iron
ores are directly beyond the terminus of
this forty miles; that the working or
utilization of this ore il certain in the
near future; and that it is q historical
fact that that amount of the circulating
medium possessed by any nation in the
world has been in almost direct proper.
tion to the amount of iron manufac-
tured by it.
Fourth, Not only are there vast guam
titles of iron ore of the best quality di-
rectly east of this city, and in close
proximity to the eastern end of this
forty miles section, but there are also
inexhaustible quantities of gypsum
and senite, marble of every variety and
of tho finest quality, and lime also.
