Now is the time for towns in the
Valley and in Eastern Oregon to
make arrangements for their dele
gates to be present when the board
of government engineers visit
Yaquiua Bay. Don't let the an
nouncement that the board will be
at Yaquina Bay on a certain day
find no preparations made. 1t is to
be sincerely hoped that this board
may be thoroughly advised of the
Importance which nearly all Oregon
places upon this improvement, and
the great and never ceasing benefits
which the farming class all over
the state will derive from its com
plstion. Let no delay be allowed,
but let every town see that its pro-
portion of the representation be
ready to appear when needed.

well-to-do by an appropriation from
the government or the extension to
an eastern connection of the Cor
wallis & Eastern Ry., the sooner
will Lincoln county begin to grow
and prosper as it ought. These
two enterprises will come. Do not
doubt it. But do not sit and wait.
Lay the foundation for your home
and prosperity as though they were
never to be. AS children say, 'Jes
play there never was going to be a
better harbor or longer railroad"
Then you will begin right, a factor
which has never been very deeply
considered here, though of great
importance. Our county is not as
prosperous as it should be. 1t is
hard to admit this, but it is true.
The ault is not the land, the climate,
or anything of that sort. 1t is
yours, With a better market,
farmers could all prosper, but to
open that market, first produce
what you can sell and with that
advertisement, open the way for
others. Go to Frisco or Portland.
There you can sell all you can raise
of celery, winter apples, mohair,
beef, hemp, butter, eggs, poultry,
honey, fresh, salt and canned salm-
on. Now, send such a quality as
will create demand for more, and
little by little buyers will come more
often and soon you will have a
market established for every product
of this county. This is the only
one way to bring prosperity. You
cannot legislate it; if you wait for a
railroad to bring it, you will die
without even glimpse of it;
neither can you sit in the sun or by
the stove and kick it into being.
1t never results from such causes.
Produce that for which there is a
demand and soon you can demand
a market and fair price. This
article may be homely and not
pleasant to the taste, but it is true.
Ponder it we'll and change your
tactics.

This is funny. The engineers
recommended $40, 900 appropriation
for Coos bay. The government
granted $I5o,ooo. Then they left
Yaquina out entirely, though there
was much more reason for the ap-
preparation. Will some one with
very big head explain it.--Demo-
crat. The same railroad influence
that delayed the Nicaragua canal
also delayed the Yaquina project.
Any tack headed citizen can see
that. The Portland board of trade
also asked for the Coos money but
forgot to mention Yaquina-purely
an oversight.

Yesterdays Trial.

1t was developed in the trial at the
court house yesterday afternoon, OF the
three men who robbed the millinery es-
tablishment OF Mrs. Maud Chapman
last Tuesday night that the stolen goods
were taken to the house OF Groce Wini-
demi monde.
According to testimony given by the
inmates Of these houses, the goods, or
part of the goods, were left there about
three o'clock on Wednesday morning
Upon being asked where the articles
were obtained, the thief remarked, II
bought them for my girl"
At noon another one of the burglars
came with two pieces OF silk and tried to
dispose of them, but the inmates refused
TO buy them and were thereupon told "If
you tell on me I'll kill you"
Sheriff Wallis was notified by these
people, what had taken place, and i'm
mediately went and recovered part OF
the stolen goods. The railroad man
when arrested, confessed and went to
the coal shutes, where large white
sugar sack, full of the stolen goods, were
obtained. Mrs. Chapman identified the
goods as her property, and the entire
valuation amounted to nearly $40O.
Ste has only received about half of her
goods and is unable to discover the
whereabouts Of the remainder.
Two Of the men are bound over to the
March term of the district conrt in large
sums. The young man, Washburn, was
also bound over, but was bailed out
through the assistance of his mother.
The information given by tho demi-
monde, to tho officers of the law goes to
show that this class Of women do not be-
lisve in harboring criminals, always
The officers are to be oomplimentsd
upon the quick capture and efficient
work in placing these men in the
clutches OF the law.

have erected plant in Grand junction

One of tho foremost citizens Of Grand

In this connection it can be safely stated
that the republican party always has the
best interests Of the state at heart and
delights to honor those who are most en-
srgetic and deserving in the cause Of
progression, either in the state or nation,
and inasmuoh as the western slope has
never been properly recognized among
the state officials there can be no good
reason why the far western portion Of

MOBILE AND OHIO.
L. & N. and Southern Will Have Con-
 trolling Interest.

Another story is that the Southern and Louisville and Nashville have acquired an interest in the Mobile and Ohio in order to freeze out the Birmingham Southern.
 No definite information can be secured concerning this scheme, but it is well known fact the Southern has been after this line for some time.
 This is evidently the outcome of the pro longed meeting held recently in this city between President Spencer, of the South ern. and President Smith, of the Louisville and Nashville.
 One of the main reasons why the South ern and the Louisville and Nashville are so anxious to control the Birmingham Southern is to defeat possible competition at Blocton By the addition of eighteen miles of line this road could reach Blocton and subject both of the two large roads to severe competition.
 If it be fact that the Louisville and Nashville and the Southern have acquired controlling interest in the Mobile and ono this line will not be built and a competition will be had. The closing of this deal will make impossible aggressive competition on the part of the Birmingham Southern.
 The question is one of most absorbing local interest and is probably one Of the greatest railroad problems that has come up in the Birmingham district in ten years or more.
 In case the change is made in the con- trolling power of the Mobile and Ohio their officers will not likely be changed. but will continue to manage this spendid system of railroad.

WAR ENDED.
Traction Company Crossing Tracks of
 Electric Company at Woodlawn.

The track is now open across the line of the Birmingham Railway and Electric com- pany at Woodlawn, and the cars of the Birmingham Traction company are regu- larly passing across the junction.
 The decision of the supreme court few days ago gave them the right to cross, and they will continue to do so. This is evident ly the end of the bitter and determined legal fight which has been waged between the two rival car companies, and no more trou- tle is anticipated.
 It will be remembered that two injunc- tions were made, one against each com pany. The Birmingham Railway and Elec- tric company contended that the Traction company had no right to cross their track at Woodlawn. At the same time the Rail- way and Electric company were contending that they had right to lay tracks on Eleventh avenue at Five Points.s which would enable them to connect the Eleventh avenue line with the Twentieth street line. This they were enjoined from doing by the courts. Both cases have now been decided and both injunctions were done away with.
 The Birmingham Railway and Electric company can now connect their Eleventh avenue line with the Twentieth street line, and the Traction company can peaceably cross the line of their rivals at Woodlawn.
 large amount of money has been spent in prosecuting these cases, and much bit- ter feeling has been aroused. As windup both sides got what they wanted and the public is relieved. from the inconvenience experienced while the companies were awaiting the supreme courts decision.

MILLER CASE.
It Will Probably Be Concluded This
 Morning.

The case against Undertaken John ID. Miller. charged with trespass after warn- ing. is st Il on trial before Judge Feagin, but will probably be concluded this morning.
 The warrant was sworn out by the officers of the Congregational church, in connection with the removal of the re- mains of Mrs Martin Helen from the Jew sh cemetery at Enon Ridge about ten days ago, which, it is alleged, was done against the orders of the cemetery board, who refused to allow the body to be moved without an order from MT. Helm the husband. The trial was begun in the inferior criminal court on Tuesday morn ing. but was adjourned over until yesterday to ascertain whether or not the cemetery was in beat S7, it being contended by tue defense that the scene of the alleged un- lawful act was not in the Jurisdiction of the court.
 Several maps and plans were submitted yesterday morning, and Judge Feagin Ge- c:ded that the cemetery was in beat 37, and ordered the trial proceeded with.
 The testimony was concluded with the examination of MT. Miller, who took the stand and testified that he had removed the body after the cemetery board refused aim a permit. He stated that he had orders from the mother, sister and husband of the deceased to remove the body, but that he had misplaced the husbands letter at the time, which he had since found and which was introduced and admitted.

PECULIAR CHARGE
Against Crazy Negro Brought From
 Palos.

Bill King, a crazy negro, was brought in from Palos yesterday afternoon on a war rant charging him with disturbing fami- lies." Sheriff OBrien refused to commit him to jail on the warrant as the code fails to specify such charge, and an effort was made to have him committed on a writ of lunacy from Probate Judge Stiles.
 The constable in charge of the negro stated that he had terrorized the people of the little town with blood-curdling screams and violent actions.
 The negro is evidently laboring under an hallucination that he was attacked by a number of circus men some time ago in this city and subjected to rough treat ment. He says that he was put in the middle of a pond and that his assailants attempted to cut his throat, and that he was fearful that they were "student doc tors" and wanted to cut him up for medi- cine.

The Vanderbilt furnace property has at E. M Tutwiler, of the Tutwiler Coal and Iron company
 The deal was finally closed yesterday and the papers turned over. J. H. Blackwell, of Trenton, N. J., made the conveyance and the price paid was $1250O. In connection with the furnace there are twenty-five acres of land surrounding it which was included in the trade, also a number of tracks and mineral lands.
 There were several intermediate persons connected with the trade who were also in- terestd in tn deal made by the Spathite Iron company some time ago. It will be re- membered this company undertook to operate the plant and dickered for some time with the owners on making a purchase of all the property. They never came to terms, however, and the work was aban- doned. r5--.
 MT. Tutwier now owns the entire plant and as soon as possible will have the fur mace blown in and go actively to work mak- ing pig iron.
 The work of getting the furnace repaired has been going on for some time. but it will be several weeks yet before operations can begin
 The Tutwier company will operate this plant in connection with it's coal and coke property, and will be a considerable factor in the Birmingham iron market

NO. 1 FOUNDRY
 QUOTED AT $125O Miners May Get an Increase in " Wages Within a
 Month.

Pig iron is gradually but steadily climb ing "and," said a buyer yesterday, 'there is no telling to what point 1t will rise. The price per ton now is s5 more than it was last summer. Purchasers have been get ting pig iron for sometime at s12 but yes- terday 1t was quoted at $l2.50, and could not be had for less. If the price continues to rise the miners will more than likely get another raise in wages by next month.
 No. foundry is now being quoted at S12.5O f. O. b. Birmingham and the other grades are rising in proportion.
 A gentleman said yesterday afternoon: ''There seems to be no doubt of iron rising over the now high price, and if it does great stimulus will be given to the busi- ness around Birmingham There are only one or two idle furnaces now. With the iron market in such healthy condition these idle furnaces will soon be bought and put in operation.'
