subscribed for that purpose, not that th.
people did not want a road, or that they
thought Lewiston did not want rail
road, but that they thought the company
could manage that business better thar
the citizens Of Lewiston, and were better
able to do it than our citizens. II tn.
company were p0r and needed oul
charities to enable them to purchase The
right Of way, the people Of Lewiston
are not so misery as to turn deaf cal

proved to be railroad company. Lew.
, iston has done much to swell the cofTere
Of the O. r. 4 N. Co., for long serie.
Of years when they have been screly
cramped to raise the funds to meet the
demands Of that company, while tina.
company have been growing rich through
our distress, and our people think they
can now afford to come to us withou,
a subsidy in the form Ct our purchasing
a right Of way Of settlers along the line
Of the road. They with as much COD.
'isteccy could ask US to buy their ties
and rails, and rolling stock. II they ask
us to form joint stock company with
them to build road to Lewiston, that
would be another proposition altogether,
and perhaps would be accepted if the
people Of Lewiston were 10 a suitable
condition to engage 10 railroad building
and operating railroads when built. But
they generally are not constructed that
way aud would have much to learn be.
fore they could make success Of the
business. The people Of Lewiston will
generally not hold back from emerging
in any kind Of business, about which they
are posted, and that promises them a
profit. They think that railroad con
Quoted with skill and energy will find
business enough here to soon become
profitable to the company who builds and
conducts it on fair basis. The grow.
ing population OF this section Of country
and abundant products Of the soil and
the energy and enterprise Of the settlers
in reasonable proximity to Lewiston will,
with transportation facilities at reason.
able rates, make business that no rail.
road company need despise, nor be will.
ing to surrender. We have the climate
and soil and our people have the energy
to enrich, by our products, and incoming
necessities from abroad, to enrich any
railroad company who will embrace the
opportunities VIC offer them without our
buying the right of way from outside to
induce them to build railroad here. II
any company is short handed and can't
build without subsidy, they had better
not build and take the risk, but give
way to those who have the money and
are not afraid to invest where opportuni.
ties are as good and no better than those
offered at Lewiston. l am one of those
that cannot fore see that people should
furnish all they have to railroad com.
pany to come to US, and We have nothing
left for ourselves. To the extent that q
railroad will enhance our interests W.
should offer inducements and show
reciprocal business liberality, and | can't
see the policy Of going beyond that.

Last fall, says the Wallowa Signal, q
camp Of thirty.tour Chinese moved on
one OF the bars on Suake river, JUS,
above the junction Of the Imnaha with
that river, to spend the winter mining
for gold. When they moved there !,
was known that they had large boat
aud good supply Of provisions, and, il
is estimated, about $1,000 in gold dust
The bar on which they had eucamped j.
very isolated, and since spring has
opened party Of men passing one day
noticed no one around the camp, and
on an investigation found the bodies of
two Cinnamon who had undoubtedly
been killed by shooting 10 the head,
and the other Cinnamon we're nowhere
to be seen. Their tents were blown
down. and after being taken up revealed
large amount Of provisions and mining
utensils, which had been used but very
little. The boat was missing, and every.
thing looked us if it had been deserted
for some time. On the bank near the
river were found several small piles Of
cartridge shells, which seem to have been
thrown out together, and with which the
awful deed mus. have been committed.
Is this revival Of an old story, that
has heretofore been published, Or il i,
some new account about missing China.
men. Who knows that any thirty. four
Cinnamon went on to any such bar and
vent to mining last TALL. We discredi,
he story aud shall do 80 till further
evidence be made manifest.
