Enron I.EpANox FxrKiss:
While Mt Portland last week was
very much impressed with the great
development that has been made there
In the past six months, In way oftrans-
portation hy electric railways. They
hnve four fine systems now In opera
tlon and more IN contemplation. Why
cannot Lebanon build an electric rail-
way To Waterloo and Sodaville? At
Waterloo Falls the plant could be plac-
ed at small expense. A good turbine
water wheel would give the necessary
power. The rails for the road could be
obtained from the S. +. Go. when
they change the narrow gauge to a
standard gauge. and the probability Is
that the :. T.. Company would
sell, say six miles, very cheap, aud we
could get ears from Portland that have
heen replaced by larger ones, or we
could buy two or three of the narrow
gauge ears. | believe that this line
could be established and put upon a
paying basis ut once, especially during
the summer season. The people would
soon find that they could get to tho
noted Soda Springs Mt Sodaville and
Waterloo at n comparatively low cost.
Lebanon, Sodaville aud Waterloo
could have electric lights, and probably
Brownsville and other points would
ccntract for lights. \ franchise could
ne obtained along the county road for
the line, and In fact the whole plant
could be put in very cheaply, and in
vertise the resources of this locality
than any other one thing. In the
near future there will probably be a
large hotel and, perhaps, sanitarium
established ut Waterloo. Sodaville's
new hotel will soon he completed.
The properties of these springs are such
that II the people of Portland and 9TH
er places knew that they could obtain
relief from nearly all the ills that the
flesh is heir to, why these wonderful
springs would become noted far and
wide, and an electric railway from
Lebanon (the terminus of the ;. Z.
Co.'S Lebanon branchl would have
more travel than they could handle
from early spring to late into the win
ter, and in all probability all the year
round. With our water ditch an as
sured fact; the O'Neil Bros. on the
ground 70 commsnce operations Oh the
paper mill; the 5000 school house un-
der way; not TO mention the many
other public aud private improve
lnents going on in Lebanon, surely we
can justly feel proud OF our record, and
when an electric railway Is i'm running
order we will then have the best little
city of its size in the state Of Oregon
and if the :. p. Co. can be induced to
run the old 0regonian Railway line
through Lebanon when il is changed
to standard gauge, then Lebanon will
take a rush forward that will as
tonish the oldest inhabitants. They
viii either have 10 fall into line and 60
ahead on the wave of prosperity or fall
by the wayside. Who will be the next
to agitatc this question and keep the
ball rolling? Yours truly, b. +. B.

Montague must be preparing for a
boom, judging by the way he Is stock
ing up his Mammoth and One-Price
Cash Stores. BY purchasing his goods
i'm such large quantities he naturally
gets much lower prices. He guaran-
tees good goods In all the departments
of his extensive establishments at
prices that absolutely nstonish other
merchants in the valley, some of them
going SO far as TO say that Montague
retails his goods MS low as they buy
them at Wholesale The careful buyer
invariably goes to Montague's.
The One-Price Cash Store has become
one of the features of Lebanon. As
everything is new and fresh, and the
prices are 50 much below that charged
IN credit-giving establishments, people
who desire To buy their goods for cash
naturally go to the corner, where they
do not have to make up to the store
keeper for the non-paying customers
who, when they can do so, buy on
credit, and who are constitutionally
opposed to paying for anything. Get
prices at the Oue-Price Cash Store and
if there is any reason in you that is
the place where you viii purchase your
supplies.
BY far the largest real estate transae-

seldom that entire additions change
hands in any city. The above transac-
tion shows the faith of the purchaser
in Lebanon's future TO remarkable
degree. Ten acres of the acquired ter
ritory will be transformed into beau
tiful park and will add to our town n
Very attractive feature which hitherto
was supposed 10 belong to cities alone.
Mr.. kirkpatrick has declared his in
tentiou to make of Lebanon a second

meantime contrive some sufficient way
other than repeated and irrepressble re-
calls to demonstrate the fact that he tickled
them to death" His rendition Of the par
sons sermon, with Old Mother Hubbard
and her dog and bone for text, was simply
inmitable, and when he closed with the
announcement that A collection will now
be taken up for the agricultural college,"
the audience lapsed into a delirium of mer-
riment. Since the famous times of Barna-
bee, so rare humorst has not provoked the
mirth of a Montpelier audience. Mr.. j. j.
Pratt, who has the management of the
library entertainments has often shown
good judgment in the selection of the com
panies he has brought here. The Ariel
Thomas Combination was engaged on his
earnest solicitation, and the result abund-
antly vindicates his estimate of the quality
of company. The opera-house was filed
to repletion.

The Elections.

The elections yesterday, so far as returns
were received last night, indicate demo-
cratic gains. Seventy-fve towns in Massa-
chusetts and 200 out of 205 precincts in
Boston give Russell 44,250 and Brackett
SO 1862. A plurality of 5000 is claimed for
Russell. The democrats gain at least two
congressman. Senator Quay claims Penn
sylvania by 10000. The New York Mail
and Express says Mckinley is elected by
from 400 to 700. Tammany elects its entire
ticket in New York city by from 1900 to
10000 majority. There is probably no
election of governor by the people in New
Hampshire.
