Work on the extension Of the Oregon
Pacific towards this city was begun at Cor
wallis last Monday morning, about two
hundred men being put to work. Mr.. Jos.
Liggett who was in the city last week in
formed us that work would be pushed with
vigor, and that the road will probably
reach this city IN sixty days. In fact the
contract with G w Hunt calls for the fin-
ishing of the grading in that length of time.
More men are wanted, s. being paid, and
s. for man and team. The bridge will
cross the Willamette about sixty yards be-
low the Red Crown Mills in this city, run
ming a few feet east of the old fruit drying
building. The structure will be a Howe
truss draw bridge. The opening will be two
numbered feet, one hundred each side Of the
central pier Work will begin next week
on il. 1t will take about three months to
build IL. Scows with material are now
waiting at Corvallis. They will be brought
down stream as soon as wing dams are
completed at one or two of the lowest
chutes, bowers being the worst 10 man
age. From the end of the bridge in this
city the road will run along Lafayette
street to near the o & G r r track, where
the depot will be located.
The completion of the road to Albany
will be Of material benefit to the city.
Though it is not large road now the in
dications are that in few years il will be-
come part Of one continuous trans-continen
tai line from the Atlantic TO the Pacific,
beach to beach, the shortest route in the
whole list of trans-continental railroads.

Lampkin had been watching at the camp

however, he protested that he was not the

THE HARVEST.

The twine binder has already begun sing.
ing its harvest song among the wheat stalks
and heads, The DEMOCRAT hears large
diversity OF opinion In reference to what the
crop will be- Portland papers have gone
out OF their way to notice Linn county par
ticularly as being unfortunate enough to be
visited this year by poor crop Of wheat.
After mature deliberation we arise and dc.
NY the charge. The indications are now
strong that the opposite is true. Take Linn
county all together, making allowances for
big and small individual crops, and we feel
justified In saying that the harvest Of both
spring and fall wheat will be larger than
last year. One machine man, who has been
all over the county, says nearly twice as
large but that Is putting Il too strong.
There are those who talk Of small crop,
but the DEMocRAT renders lis judgment on
the evidence in favor of a good crop, and It
does not do this for buncomb. II Is not
treating section of country fairly to pub.
lish reports of poor crops on the word of
few chronic GROWERS, whose fields may have
been hit, or, more likely,who have no fields
at all. Right here, at the beginning of the
harvest the DEApcRAr asks It's readers to
send Il honest reports Of their wheat yield,
whether large orsmall II the result Is not
a fattering one, considering the many ad.
verse reports, we will abandon all claims to

tion.
