In a conversation yesterday between
the scribe and a prominent Western cattle
man, the Northwestern and its progress
west was mentioned. Il am glad" said
the Westerner, that the road Is so stead
lily pushing forward, for the people of
Central Oregon are getting anxious to
have it meet its connection in their re-
gion."
Inquiry developed the fact that the
connection referred to, was a short road
eighty miles in length, which left Aquina
bay on the Pacific coast, and ran du.
east It's full length in Central Oregon
This road is generally believed in the sec
ton through which it passes, to be thu
property Of the Northwestern, and that
its eastern terminus is the objective poinl
of the road in its westward cuurse. The
Aqnina road has a itch country tributary
to it, already well pnpulated.

EinnncinI Prosperity.

The statement of the condition of the
Farmers and Merchants Bank on the
3lst day of December, 1885, appears in
another column of the HERALD. 1t is a
most cheering Indication of the financial
prosperity of the country and of success
ful and wise management on the part of
the President, Mr.. /, w. Hellman. The
statement shows the large deposit of
Sl,4l3, ,076.3 and solid loans of 81 1884,
4lS.g5. Cash on hand $3.50, 342 10,
and United States bonds and warrants,
SAGA, 234 Al, making cash resources of
1858, 576.5l. The undivided profits show
the handsome sum of S66, ,033.l9, while
the surplus reserve is $4,000.
This exhibit shows an enormous bust.
ness with generous profits, the result of
consummate skill in financial affairs.
The stockholders and directors may well
feel proud of the strong financial position
of their institution. No bank on the
Pacific Coast is managed with more sue
cess, skill and good judgment than the
old Farmers and Merchants Bank of

One Of the largest audience that has
ever been seen in Los Angeles filled the
Grand Opera House last night TO hear
Charles l.. Davis and his excellent Com
pany In Alvin Joslin. No doubt the
presence Of the $4,000 silver cornet
band belonging TO this show and the
fame OF Mr.. Davis collection OF
diam onds as. isted materially in swelling
the audience to the mammoth propor-
tions attained last night BE that as it
may, those who attended the Opera
House were well repaid for their time
and expenditure, and saw one of the
most pleasing and popular plays which
has been produced in this city for long
time. Mr.. Davis took the title role,
Alvin Joslin, and his delineation OF the
old New England farmer was true to
life. and he carried the audience with
him throughout. To Judge by the fre-
ouont bursts Of applause and almost com
tinuous laughter which greeted Mr..
Davis. he achieved notable and gratify-
ing success. -
Mr.. L. s. Roden, as New York
crook, didn't have much to do, but he
certainly did that little perfectly. II he
ever gets loose on the streets in his stage
makeup he will be arrested on suspi-
cion by the first policeman who secs
him.
Mrs. Charles l.. Davis sustained the
part of Julia Ford, the abused wife. adj
mirably.
Not the least attractive feature of the
evening was the delightful music be-
tween acts by the Alvin Joslin orchestra.
The overture 1.-THE Blacksmith In the
Woods" was especially charming.
This afternoon there will be matinee
at popular prices. and tonight the last
performance Of Alvin Joslin will be
given. Crowded houses can safely be
predicted.

of heavy loads and rapid driving, the
people are moving into Croscenta Cana

Mr.. II. II. Lowell has purchased the
interest Of the Messrs. Childress in that
settlement and has engaged men aud
teams to work all winter in making per-
manent improvements. Among the
improvements made are cemented
ditch of large dimensions, two miles in
length, to carry the water from Cook
Canon over large part of the tract.
Mr.. Lowell has besides donated two
lots in the townsite to Messrs. c. w.
Cryer & Co., for the site of store and
hotel, which are contracted to be put up
within ninety days.
A lumber yard, planning mill and
blacksmith shop will all be established
in a short time. These improvements
and the two nurseries already started
will give an air OF business to the new
settlement, which is destined to be one
of the beauty spots of California.
