Special Correspondence
Nyssa Ore, April 2.--Your paper has
always been open to communications
that interest the public at large and all
your cientage This Is from Nyssa,
a town which is in embryo. We've got
a pretty good townsite here and all we
need is a capitalist, As you are well
aware, now that Mckinley and pros
perity are stacking up pretty high 1t
might be as well TO clarity the muggy
atmosphere and remove from all doubt
the question whether or not Nyssa is
in the race. We ship a good deal Of
stuh-good at that-from and into this
place. There Is a trst-rate railroad
running here, II Is called by people the
Oregon short Line 1t has facilities
unequalled by any other railroad In the
districts traversed by II, 1t has the
best managers in the world, and they
have no competitors. They viii short
ly erect a capacious and commodious
depot at Nyssa. The board Of directors
have net decided whether they will
extend $50, 900 or 100000 In this direc-
ton, IL goes without saying that this
depot VIII be constructed on plans
commensurate with the demands Of the
new Town,
These demands have been emphatl-
cally and explicitly submitted to sub.
ordinate officials Of the railroad COM
pony. II is confidently anticipated that
after the usual tran of circumlocution
mas been camped on and the maze has
been traversed, shoals avoided, bank
full rivers forderd Nyssa will be ac-
corded the consideration 10 which she
Is entitled
You are aware, Mr.. Editor, that Nys-
sa is located at a point most favorable
Ii is the natural distributing point of
district rich In material resource. When
the town Is plated immigrants viii
gladly come. The sage brush country
IN the immediate vicinity will soon
change It's character. Schools. churches
factories and pretty cottages will ap-
pear on the scene. A population Of L.
0O0, st least, will be here. The town
Of Nyssa will become the commercial
entrepot of Malheur county 1t Is rath.
er an unhappy circumstance that
suburb Of Nyssa, malappropriately
called Arcadia and situated in an al
kali desert, ever came into existence
But Nyssa people endeavor 10 bear up
against this affection. For Arcadia the
Oregon Short Line has Just about the
same amount Of sympathy as a hospl-
tai nurse has for a smallpox patient.
Nyssa is not embroidered with flowers
nor Is IL sitting in the lap OF nature
Ii has acquired the habit OF rustling
and proposes 10 move, But Dame Ma
ture has been generous. Within a quar-.
ter OF a mile Nyssa has the best and
snfest terry leading to Emmett and
Boise City. At all times OF the year
this ferry is safe Consequently. cattle
and sheep men viii avail themselves OF
this short route. The road between
Nyssa to Vale, the county seat Of NAL
heur county has been made through the
unassisted efforts Of the people OF
Nyssa first class. Hope Bros, OF Vale
an extensive mercantile concern. are re-
ioiolng In the fact that when their
good arrive az Nyssa there Is a splen-
did opening for stacking them in the
open sage brush. They also are sens-
bic nf the great convenience Of the pro
posed depot at Nyssa. Passengers ar
irving and departing from Nyssa can be
accommodated under the canopy OF
heaven at a small price provided the
hotel Is full The price Is colds. asth-
ma, rheumatism and general discom-
fort. All these Inconvenience and dis
comforts win be avoided BY walking
four miles 20 Arcadia where a bath I'm
the alsali desert there win be az the
deposition ~ all who like 10 partlcl-
pate IN that kind Of healthful amuse-
ment
Nyssa Is In the procession and Is de-
sirous OF recognition at the hands OF the
oregon Short Line. I don't think the
people here would object whether they
recognized them az the hands or feet.
but they decidedly object to getting II in
the neck.
The News" Is a favorite out in this
country. and Il would confer a favor
by telling the people OF Utah that
Nyssa has openings for small or large
capitalists unequalled,
