is bypass arrangement and two wioks, a

THE COLUMBIA SOUTHERN.
The New Extension Completed to a Sta
tion Fourteen Niles from BigGs
Called IzIOndike.

BY recent circular emanating from
the headquarters OF the Colum bia South
ern Railway Company at Wasco, this
official announcement is made:
''To agents and connecting lines:
"The extension of this conn pany's line
has been completed to a point fourteen
miles from Biggs, and the station of
Klondike, Oregon, has been established
thereat.
"E. f. LYTLE, Pres.
I'D. G. O'REILLY, Gen. Mgr"
When this is completed it is reported
that it will reach as far as Prineville.
The surveys of the proposed Eastern
Oregon from Albany to Ontario were re-
ported complete long ago. The same
territory will be tributary to both lines,
although the latter, of course, will be the
much longer line of the two. The ad-
vantage of the former over the latter,
however, lies in the fact that actual con-
strnction is in progress, and it will nat
urally be the first in the field.
When the Columbia Southern is
opened to Prineville it will tap a very
productive country, rich in wool and
cattle interests, now looking for market.
This will find its way to The Dallee, and
naturally tend to greatly promote the
growth and business interests of that
place.-Telegram.
The Columbia Southern will either
strike it rich or it will be cold day for
it when it reaches KIondike.

blooming for the first crop of flowers

put his scheme into effect and forced a
second growth of blossoms, with which

LEARNING NOTHING.

The Medical Department of the Army
Seems Incapable of Intelligent Action.
Santiago de Cuba, November 2.-The
United States transport Port Victor
was to have left to-day at noon for
the United States with a number of
sick officers and men. Fortunately,
just before the hour fixed for her de-
parture, Gen. Leonard Wood, mill
tary governor of the Department of
Santiago, went on board. To his
amazement he found no provisions
specially suited to sick persons, an
entire lack of delicacies and an IL
sufIiciency of medical supplies.
Gen. Wood declares that hereafter
he will pay a personal visit to every
transport before it leaves the harbor.
He thinks it very strange that, after
all the experience had here in this
line, the medical department is not
able to manage affairs better, and that
the personal supervision of the COM
manding officer should be necessary.
