AFTER THE COMBINATION.
Governor Van SAINT Will Summon
the Legislature.

Governor Van SAINT has determined
II tight the great railway combine as
represented by the Northern Securities
company to the last ditch. He has
decided to call an extra session of the
legislature for the purpose of prOVid-
ing funds for the legal battle and says
that should the legislature fail to APP
prCpriate the amount asked ne VIII

or the contest.
While the governor declined TO make
public his plains for prosecuting the
fight, he does not deny that ne has
decided upon an extra session. This
decision was reached after a prOtract-
ed conference with the heads OF the
various departments and the chairman
of the house committee on apprOpria-
tiCns. One hundred thousand dollars
Will be asked for to cover the ex-
penses of hiring counsel to assist the
attorney general and for other emer-
gercies. Beyond appropriating the
money the governor does not believe
that the legislature can aid him ma
terially. The antitrust and anti-con-
sOiidatiOn on laws now upon the
statute books of this state are looked
upon as embOdying the limit of legis-
lative powers, and the fight viii be

SHORT LINE CONNECTION.
Plan Discussed For New California
Oregon Road.


Oregon Road.
Another connection for the oregon
Short Line is being discussed in CALI
fOrnia. A special dispatch from Red
ding to the San Francisco Call SAYS:
The railroad building in northern
California, present and prospective, has
led to the revival of the plan to build
that section of road which viii close
a gap and give California another con-
Meeting road with the east. The scheme
accOmplishes what the Oregon Mid
land proposed, but not built, would
nave done The Burlington was be-
hind the Midland proposition, and it is
believed eastern railroad interests are
fostering the new plan that is being
discussed.
The great increase in lumber and
cattle traffic is causing branches from
the main line to push on in several
directions. One of the latest projects
Is for the extension of the branch from
Montague 10 Yreka, in the western
portion of SiskiyOu county. Thomas
B. Walker, the lumber king, is expects
ed to build a long branch through the
eastern SiskiyOu timber land.
simultaneously comes the report Of
prospective work that viii have more
than local Importance, in that it viii
supply a link for a transcontinental
system. 1t is probable that one of the
several SiskiyCu county branches he
ing extended toward the Oregon bound
airy in developing northern California
and southern Oregon viii form part Of
trunk line down the coast to Eu-
reka, to join the old DOnahue road and
reach San Francisco bay at Tiburou,
while northwaTd a connection viii be
made in eastern Oregon with the Ore
gon Short Line to Utah.
"A natural and easy route for cross
ing SiskiyOu county from Shasta val
ley would be an extension of the Yreka
railroad to Scott valley, then over SAL
mon mountain to Salmon river, or
down Scott river 10 the Klamath, as
may be deemed upon survey to be the
most practical way to cross the level
coast valleys direct to Eureka, to
which point the California North
western or Donahue road is now grad
uaiy extending.
a railroad from eastern Oregon
through SiskiyOu county to Eureka on
the coast would make connections for
a short and direct route 10 all eastern
Oregon, Washington, Idaho Montana
and British Columbia 1t would form
another route to Portland and Seattle
and connect with all the continental
roads of the north toward the At
lantic"

The tale that George J. Gould is to

In the past few days that George J.
Gould was interested with Senator W.

of the proposed new line from SAT-

points on the Pacific coast. These re-
