RUM0RS ARE
RIPE AGAIN
Santa Fe System Look
for an Outlet on
Oregon Coast
Railroad Men Say 1t Is Doubt.
full Whether 1t viii Build
up the Sea Coast for
Some Years to Come

The news that Vice-President Ken.
ma, Of the Santa Fe, is visiting Eure-
ka, Cal, in company with other OH,
cials, and that he said that the com
pany was DESTROYS of securing a com
plete system on the coast, Is not re-
garded seriously by local railroad
men, who are in a position to under.
stand what an Oregon extension of
this system would mean, says the
Portland Journal.
Engineers and operating officials,
who have a knowledge of the coast in
Oregon say that no new line will be
built for years, If at all. The right Of
way up to the mouth Of the Rogue rly.
err is said to be fairly easy, and few
difficulties would be encountered by a
road building into this region from the
south. After leaving the Rogue river,
engineers say, the line would be too
costly for present consideration. Gin
after cliff meets the sea shore, high
crags and iutting shelves Of rock
stretch cut to shut off progress, and
in many places tunnels would have to
be bored through living rock, or else
the line would be forced to skirt the
cliffs and make wide detours.
The general belief is that the Santa
Fe viii not build up the coast, because
the cost would be enormous, and also
because there is no traffic or prospect
Of any along the coast, apart from a
few ports of minor Importance. Should
the Santa Fe build to Northern Ore
gon. the only practical route, It Is
stated would be through central Ore
gon, and this region Is beginning to
be tapped by feeders of the o. r. g.
N. so extensively that other lines
would not find the traffic needed to
Justify such construction.
Railroad men say that the only rea-
son the Santa Fe entered Northera
California, or considered a line fran
San Francisco, was because Of a lack
OF lumber along it's lines. To supply
it's territory with lumber, to secure
the entire haul on this commodity
and besides to secure building materi-
al at the lowest cost for it's W work
the Santa Fe pushed its lines into the
redwood forests Of Northern Califor
MIA. That the Eureka line will be a
part of the system is generally admit
ted. Il even believed that later the
line viii be pushed north towards the
Rogue river to secure an entry into
the vast fir forests there, but the best
posted railroad men believe that this
win be the end of the roads progress
for years, and that even this terminal
will not be reached for perhaps a de.
cade.

If BLACKS SHOULD RISE.
Negroes in Africa Vastly Outnumbe
White People in Dark Continent.

New York Mail and Express: This
sentence has not infrequently been ut
tered, and %nervously uttered, in Africa,
The whites on that continent, even in.
Dutch n English South Africa, are in
an absurd numerical minority. In Cape
Colony itself, the Oldest INC best set
tied European province, there are but
Ss2,19S whites to 2,11S,437 blacks. No
such disparity exists in n part of our
American "black belt" In Rhodesia
upward of 100000 warlike blacks of
the strongest sort. including the fierce
Matabele. In Natal there are 1905
whites to SOC SIP Zulu-Kaff1rs. In most
Of German Africa, and, of course, the
whole of the continent n%orthward to
Algeria, the disparity is greater still.
In the Warmbad district of German
Southwest Africa, whence only yester-
day we had news a another German
outpost had been overpowered and
massacred, there were at last accounts
1,513 white persons, mostly Beers who
have trekked there, to 10000 blacks.
Yesterday, too, we had news, as yet
unconfrmed, but very likely true, of
the massacre Of a white missionary
and his community of eighteen con-
vcrts in the hitherland of Liberia. The
scene Of his deed is significant, If the
news is true, for If the black ava
lanche Is ever let loose In Africa 1T
will undoubtedly be by the hand of
some black who has been inspired by
thoughts Of black rule and independ-
ence, such as those that prevail in Lii
IBERIA. No such native avalanche ever
hung Owe the heads of even the few
white settlers in the American colonies
In the early day, for the American viii
derness was never peopled by such
hosts of saVages as fill the African
veldt and jungle.
For the attempt, at leaSl, nothing Is
wanting but the Toussaint rOuvreture,
the determined and able black leader
who can organize the diverse and mu-
tually foreign nations and tribes and
inspire them with a ommon motive Of
revolt. No such leader is In sight. Yet
q negro King Philip, a negro Pontiac,
q negro Tecumseh, the stamp of whose
foot upon the earth may some day be
heard In the earthquake, is neither in
conceivable nor impossible.
We may understand the uneasiness
of South African whites over this Hot
tentot Instruction German rule is
sufficiently oppressive to light the
flame If anything will do 1t. The Hot
tentots are @ widespread nation. A
general black Instruction must result
in horrible maSsacres. Yet there could
be but one f1nal result for it, as there,
was but one possible result for the,
general wars in America. The thou
and of whites, with their resources
and organization, would prevail, and
more sternly than ever against the.
million of blacks.
