mature consideration on the subject,
make an order that will force this pro-
perty to sale before May or June. There
is no hurry that 1 can see. OF course
it has Its troubles and its vexatiOns,
but it must not be manipulated by
hasty action. l would suggest that we
make haste slowly, and it will be
much more satisfactory in the end.
The court: 1t seems to me that there
has not been any hasty action in this
matter. To rue it seems that there is
an injustice to the creditors to keep
this thing pending longer than the
first Of April; if they can get ready at
all they eau get ready by that time.
1 think that a sale ought to take place
before the next regular term of court
here. 1 will adjourn this court to some
time along in MIrch the first of
March, and then if there is no better
prospects than there is now it can be
put off again. Then the sale could
take place about the first of April.
The bond holders have had sufficient
time, and they have been at il for
three or four years, and don't see as
they are any nearer consummating an
agreement than they were when they
began The creditors here in Oregon
need relief, and their claims ought to
be paid-tbe road ought To be sold for
whatever it will bring and let them

An adjournment will be taken until
some time before the first of March, at
