Two Trains a Day.

Citizens of Corvallis will be
greatly pleased to learn that pros
poets of a twice-a-day service
ove~ the Westside from Corvallis
to Portland are growing brighter.
Assurances that the project is
shortly to be consummated are
especially gratifying. to the Ga
zETTE,. for it was first advocated
in these columns. While the
business men of Corvallis have
been quick to give what encour-
agement they could to the en-
terPrise, the greater share of the
credit for the service, if it is
established, will belong, to the
Improvement League of indie
pendence.
A dispatch from independence,
under date of August 10th, con-
tains the following;
Mr.. Conan, Mr.. Jones aud
party, in the employ of the
Southern Pacific Railroad COM
pany, were through Indepen-
dence a few days ago, and stated
that they were of the opinion
that another train would be put
on the run from Corvallis to
Portland in the morning and re-
turn at night. They stated they
were trying to improve the eff
cheney of the road on the west
side as rapidly as the travel
would justify. The people of
independence are we'll pleased
with the treatment of the South
ern Pacific i'll almost all cases,
and feel much elated over the
