Rosenfeid's Neoo Road Commented On, b

Rosenfeids Ne,o Road Commented On by
the Stockton d" Mail"
STOCKTON, Call, Nov. 14.--THE CALLS
story in regard to the new railroad scheme
and the plans of the hackers is generally
accepted here as the correct version of the
mysterious movements of the projectors of
the line. At the Office of Woods & Levin
sky, from which the news emanated, it
was stated to-day that tomorrow night
the leading members of the company
would arrive in the city and a portion of
the plans of the company be made public.
The Mail this afternoon, after crediting
THE CALL with the story, makes the fol-
lowing comments:
Whether the proposed line viii come by way
of Corral Hollow is still doubtful. RoSenfeld
& Son are interested in the new road, and it is
said to have been their desire originally to run
a line across the tules The route they favored
lay along the south side of the San Joaquin
River to the vicinity of Brentwood, thence
easterly across the swamp land to the vicinity
OF Bracks Landing. From there they would
either build to this city or make connection
with the Lodi Terminal road, conveTging the
latter into a standard steam railway and eX-
tending 1t from Lodi to Bracks Landing.
Whether this project has been abandoned or
not remains 10 De seen. AT present the 1nulca-
tions point to line by way OF Corral Hollow,
but there would be some very expensive tun-
neling and the line would be a great deal
longer than one crossing the tules. If the
Corral Hollow route is chosen it would be
much easier TO build to Modesto and connect
with the Valley road there than to build to
this city or its vicinity The fact that Mr..
Wiley says Stockton is to be one of the ter
mini of the new road is construed by some as
indicating that Rosenfeld's original idea has
been modified, and that the new line will be
built across the reclaimed lands 10 this city in
stead of to Bracks Landing as at first proposed.

New Cargo of Material at San
Francisco Has Come in
Good Time.
MAY BEAT THE FALL RAINS
Will Reach the StaniSlaus River With

Thirty Days.

STOCKTON, CAL, Nov. 1.-THE Valley
road track-layers have passed the new
station of Escalon and are now working
on toward the StanisIaus River.
The line was nine and half miles out
two days ago. To-day it extends over
twelve miles. The rails in the material
yards are being used up rapidly, and the
arrival of the new cargo at San Francisco
is timely.
If the fall rains catch the workmen the
season must come month too early, for
at the present rate it will be less than
thirty days until the river is reached.
Every department of the construction
work is moving with clocklike regularity.

A JUST VERDICT.
Tom Lewis Convicted for Burning Hay
Near Antelope.

Tom Lewis Convicted for Burning Hay
Near Antelope.
The case of the state VS.. Thomas
Lewis was given to the jury about
O'Clock yesterday afternoon, and within
thirty minutes the court was informed
that a verdict had been reached. When
the verdict was read it was that the
Jury had found the defendant guilty as
charged in the Indictment. The crime
for which Lewis was tried was the
burning of 80 tons of hay belonging to
Mr.. Brogan, near Antelope, on the
night of the 18th of November. AL
though the evidence given in the trial
of this case was entirely circumstantial,
it was so conclusive that the jury could
arrive at no other conclusion than that
the defendant was the guilty party.
This has been one of the most ex-
pensiue cases to the county that has
been tried during the present term OF
court, sixteen witnesses having been
brought from Antelope, but it is money
well expended, for Lewis crime is one
that should not go unpunished. So
ciety has no protection against the
diabolical deeds of an incendiary, ex-
cept the punishment meted out by the
courts after the crime has been com
mitted, the property of the victim
DESTROYED, and whenever one of this
class of criminals is brought 30 justice,
society feels the relief that it may
serve to prevent other similar crimes.

GOOD TIMES AHEAD.
Mr.. Sufert Reports Prosperous Times in
the East.


Mr.. F. A. Sufert returned Monday
from morths visit to New York City,
where he had been looking after the
fish shipping business. He says there
Is an increasing demand for frozen
fish for shipment to England, and the
outlook for the business next year is
tlattering. Columbia river salmon and
sturgeon are sought after both for con-
sumption in New York and for ship
ment to Europe, and the demand far
exceeds the supply. When asked re-
garding times in New York, Mr.. Seu-
fert said they were good. Everybody
seems to be prosperous. Factories of
all kinds are running on full time, en-
plOying full forces of operatives, and
an air of general prosperity prevails
throughout the east. The wages of
operatives are somewhat lower than in
former times, but they are getting what
they consume at 80 per cent reduction.
hence are making more real money
than formerly. The same is true of
the farmers, whose products are com
manding a somewhat lower price than
they did few years ago, but on the
other hand everything they have to
buy is also cheaper, hence they are
comparatively prosperous. Through
out the east Mr.. Seufert says there
appears to be considerable activity in
all branches of business, and all are
looking forward to prosperous times
next year.

UmatiIla Indians Ask to Have Tribal Gov
ernment Restored.

ernment Restored.
All the Indians on the Umatilla res
ervation, says yesterdays Pendleton
Tribune, will assemble in council to
memorialize congress to take from
them the rights of citizenship and with
hold the same from them for a period OF
% years, or until they are entitled to
patents to their lands under the allot-
ment act. The initial steps in this di-
rection were taken few weeks ago
when the first assembly was held. On
Tuesday second council was called to
order and speeches were made by Chiefs
Peo, No Shirt, Young Chief and many
others. After the addresses memo
rial which had been drawn up and
signed by every Indian on the reserva-
ton, each acting under the advice OF
the three leaders.
The memorial states in effect that the
Indians do not wish to become citizens
until 1917, when they will be entitled
to their patents: that in the year men
toned the children, who are making
rapid advances at school, will be better
able to enter into possession of the
lands and to hold the same and to cul-
tivaue it after the manner of the whites
than are the Indians of the present day;
that the Indians wish to be restored to
their tribal laws and customs.

Old Bally Ran Away.

For the past thirty years Mr.. J. W.
Vanbibber has delivered milk IN this
city each day, and never had mishap
until Wednesday, when Old sBally,
his trusted and true horse, who had
hauled the milk wagon for four years
and never before showed a disposition
to betray the confidence imposed in
him, concluded to take q spin. This
insane idea entered his head while Mr..
Vanbibber was delivering milk on
Third street near the convent, and
taking advantage of the opportunity
offered broke away at fearful pace,
up one street and down another, scat
tering milk cans promlscuously about
until he was caught by Mr.. Wiley in
the eastern part of the city. No ma
terial damage was done, except the
spilling of some eight gallons of milk,
but since Mr.. Vanbibber is not wont
to "cry over spilled milk" he has no
serious regrets only that he has lost
in Old Bally and will dis
cipline him in the field dragging the
olow until his conduct is such as to re-
store confidence.

Big whert Deal at Pendleton.

Yesterdays East Oregonian has the
following:
Reports came from Adams that a
lot of bluestem was sold at 40 cents on
the platform. No. club also sold for
40 cents. 1t has been predicted that
the market would soon begin to arouse
from the sluggish condition in which
for many weeks it lay. The arousing
has come, and the 40 cent sales are in
doubitabfe evidence of the truth of the
assertion. In addition to these sales
comes the news that, today, an option
was sought and obtained on 100000
bushels held by Pendleton parties.
The option was for a purchase at 40
cents, and expired at II o'clock this
morning. Such. a round lot, although
it is not all in one warehouse, but is
scattered among several stations. is
very eagerly soue ht after by the wheat
buyers, at all times when there if any
demand whatever.

Another Dastardly Deed.

If the following from the Antelope
Herald is true, another lynching in
Crook county may be expected pro-
vided the wretch is caught who has
been committing dastardly deeds in
the vicinity of Mitchell:
"The fiendish thugs who have been
burning hay in the Mitchell and Bridge
creek countries this fall, not being
satisfied with this fendish practice
alone, have now turned their attention
to the the poisoning of sheep. Last
week Mr.. James Connolly, who re-
Gently had all his hay burned by in
cindiarism, had 400 head of his sheep
poisoned on the range, either saltpetre
or strychnine having been used. Con-
roy & Joyce few days afterwards lost
about fifty head in similar manner.
This is the most despicable practice
ever instituted in Eastern Oregon, and
every possible effort should be made to
ferrett out the perpetrator, and if
caught, he should never be allowed
time to say his prayers"

IAN aged American lady is presumed
to be speaking in australia
On Austral's shore at times lay
On summer nights before my door,
And listen to an old time lay,
Which have often heard before,
Around my youths beloved home
America, my home.
A lament tits, in music told,
Recalling childhood's years and scenes,
Which had been left for glittering
gold,
Which once attained how paltry seems
When weighed against the loss of all
Which fills Hfe's path with pleasant
ways,
The loss of home, sweet friendships
call;
From this alone spring peaceful days.
Now I age by woods and rivers,
Far from thee dear land, my home,
Sadly feeling shall never,
Never more the old paths roam.
OF their land, let strangers sing,
l can love but thee my own,
And to thee my aged heart clings,
America, my Home!

brilliant gems of thought under such
