Business Is Coming.

Tracklaying has begun on the log.
ging road leading from Little Rock to
the Black Hills country, and soon the
people of Olympia will see millions of
feet of logs doomed in the bay reserve
above Long bridge. 1t is understood
by the projectors of this scheme that
when the railroad is in full operation
the logs will be dumped into the bay
as fast as they can be shipped away.
All this, of course, means that our
city will then be the center of q far
reaching business enterprise, destined
to last as long as merchantable timber
exists in this vicinity.
