Railroad to Goldendale.

GOLDENDALE, WASH, Oct. 10.-A
big railroad meeting was held by
the citizens here Saturday at the
court house. A proposition was
made, through a communication
from Denver parties, In which they
offer to build a railroad from some
point on the Columbia river, the
same making connection with the
Union Pacific, thence to Goldendale
and vicinity will guarantee a sub
sidy Of $50, 900 and the right of way
for the entire line. The details of
procuring the subsidy were fully
discussed. IL was decided 1t could
be raised. Six men offered to
pledge $4,000 to start the list. The
meeting instructed that an invita-
tion be sent 10 the Denver parties 10
send out q representative to confer
with the people. If Goldendale
accepts the proposition, trains will
be running to this point without
doubt within six months, providing
all reports are true. 1t now costs
the farmer of Klickitat valley 8
cents per bushel to get his wheat on
the Union Pacific cars. With the
proposed road many dollars will be
saved to the farmer.
