OREGON PACIFIC CINDERS.

A special train leaves Albany for
Yaquina on Sunday next at 2 p. m.
The indications are that the river
will remain at a good boating stage I'M
til late in the summer.
Receiver Hadley was over to the
bay this week looking after the CON-
pany's interests ill the Alice Blanchard,
recently released.
Under the present river schedule the
boats tie up at this city. This arrange
ment better enables the company to
meet the demands on the river craft.
The rolling stock and track is being
improved and repaired so that Row
trains make as good, if mot better time
OVER a portion of the road than 7jany
other road in the state.
The government snag-boat is now
engaged in removing obstructions in the
river above Harrisburg, and should she
complete the work before the
water is too low, the Hoag will bring
an excursion party from Eugene to
Harrisburg or this city.
The steamer Willamette Valley ar
rived at Yaquina from San Francisco
on Thursday afternoon with "a passen-
gers. AS usual, train started east
ward at once with the passengers and
perishable freight. The vessel sails
Saturday with 750 tons of freight.
A special train will leave Yaquina
on Saturday afternoon for Albany to
carry the Corbett excursionists. The
train will pass Corvallis at $50, and
return to Corvallis after the entertain
ment. The faae for the round trip
from Corvallis has been fixed at so
cents.
The willamette valley merchants
cASutSiou W Dan TdDClSCO on the = (tn
inst, promises to be we'll patronized.
1t is creating considerable interest in
the City of the Golden Gate, and the
may expect the best kind
of treatment by the business men of
San Francisco.
Some time ago the company began
to repair and repaint all OF the rolling
stock of the road. Next week two
passenger coaches, mail car and an
engine will come ont of the shops ard
will take the place of the regular pas
enger. Other cars will at once take
he place OF these in the shops.

give the employees an opportunity to
vote Oh this all important question, and
to acquire the necessary information to
vote inte!ligently on the subject, and to
vote AS honest American citizens, the
factory was closed on Monday.
The pleasant and warm weather Ct
the past two weeks has given very
desirable impetus to the carria Sc
trade, and many persons are now Sc
lecting their vehicles to be purchased
at once. A great many visitors find
their way to the factory for this pur-
pose. A number of liverymen of the
Willamette valley have placed their
orders with the carriage factory for
from one to half-dozen different
styles of vehicles, and we are informed
that orders are being received daily by
mail.
DIS. Applewhite and Pe.not, our
eminent and highly respected physi-
clans, recently paid the factory IL visit
and were SO well pleased with the
work that before leaving they left an
order for one of the No. ! Portland
spring road wagons. This is one OF
the lightest and best open buggies
made at the factory, and is the first oi
the kind sold for use in this vicinity
Combining all of the qualities OF
lightness, symmetry, durability and
strength, made Of the best material
obtainable throughout, full leather
trimmings, concord body, side spring.
and being the easiest riding buggy in
the state, makes it especially adapted
for the doctors use for, summoned in
haste as SO often occurs to make long
drive in it, instead Of being worn out
when the destination is reached, the
reverse occurs, and one is refreshed
| and ready for business. The company
expect to sell great many of this
style during the spring and summer.

THE SUNDAY EXCURSIONS.

About a hundred persons ayailed
themselves last Sunday Of the oppor-
tunlty Of viewing the Santiam scenery
by taking passage or the Corvallis and
Albany excursion to Detroit, the termi-
nus Of the eastern division of the
Oregon Pacific. Those who went ex-
press themselves as having had a
delightful outing.
At 10 O'Clock Sunday morning the
steamer Hoag arrived down with a
large party of excursionists from
Harrisburg and vicinity, among whom
were goodly number of former resi-
dents of Corvallis. The arrival of
the excursionis,s was unexpected, but
our citizens made their stay of several
hours as pleasant rs possible. The
good cheer of members of the party
upon their departure at $50 gave evi-
dence that they had enjoyed the day.
The Corvallis band and a number of
others returned to Harrisburg with the
party and report joyous time. The
band boys speak in high terms of the
treatment they received at the hands
Of the officers of the boat. The Cor
wallis party arrived back at 7 o'clock
Monday morning. .....
