Has Reorganlzed and Propose to
Push the Project.

Push the Project.
A reorganization of the Kansas-Colo-
rado Railroad Co., with practically the
same officials, was effected in Pueblo last
Friday and the people Of that city arc
iubilant over the certainty of the road
being built from Canon City to Pueblo
and the assurance that the road will be
built to La Junta within three years.
To secure the financial backing they
required the projectors found it necessary
to change their charter to read that
either electric or steam motive power
might be used and they had to eliminate
the word electric from their title. 1t is
asserted that the project has now the
necessary financial backing and will pro-
eeed with the work.
Here are few sections Of the amend
ed franchise granted by the City Of
Pueblo:
First-They must construct and have
in operation twenty-five miles OF railroad
outside Of the city, limits which includes
the Turkey creek division by June l.
Sseond-They must construct and put
in operation line Of railway through
the city by June l. le 10.
Third-Ihey must begin work within
ninety days from the time that the
new franchise is granted and work must
be continuous and prosecuted with rea-
sonable diligence.
Fivs-They must maintain at lsas,
daily train service. six days week. each
way, over all main lines Of the completed
part Of the road.
Sixth-They shall complete aud put ir
operation a road from Pueblo to the Goa
fields Of Fremont county by June !
Ssvsn-Ths Kansas-colorado railroae
must furnish low freight rate on Goa
from the Canon City coal fields to thi.
city Of not to exceed 80 cents per ton OF
lump, nut and run Of mine coal. 1ht
rate on slack coal shall be not TO exceed
50 cents per ton. This Is reduction or

lance Of sixty-th miles which Is to b
completed within three years.
In tho event Of failure upon their par
to build this road within the preseribes
three years any other road wishing =
build this proposed line that does so shal
have the right to enter tho city and US
the terminals Of Of the Kansas-Coloradt
road. In the event that the two road

BOURNE is PROVING
TO Be ONE OF OREGON'S
GREATEST SENATORS
IS WIDE AWAKE AND THOROUGHLY INFORM
ED ABOUT EVERY PROJECT THAT CON-
GERMS OREGON AND IN WHICH THE
GOVERNMENT IS INTERESTED

through the medium of the public
press.
Oregon City Locks Project.
Willamette River Above Portland
and Yamhill River, oregon-The
present project provides for i'm
provemeDt below Corvallis with n
view to obtaining by dredging and
dam and revetment work. and by
snagglng a low water depth of TX
to 31h feet from Corvallis to Oswe-
go, and low water depth OF 12 feet
thence TO Portland. Some smuggling
may also be done above Corvallis.
The work is carried on by use of
government plant.
During the past year the total OF
1880 cubic yards OF material was
removed from the river and 73O
snags were taken from the channel
and banks between Corvallis and
Newberg and repairs were made to
revetment and dikes at Wheatland,
Independence and Five Islands
Some work of a similar nature was
done on the Yamhill river above and
below the locks at McMinnville.
The district officer submits an es-
tlmate OF 100000 for continuing
the work on these rivers during the
year ending June 80, 1911.
The operating expenses of the
Yamhill river lock are provided for
by a permanent appropriation.
The question OF the acquisition by
the United States OF the canal and
locks at Wlllamette falls. Willamette
river, was investigated under au-
thorlty OF the act OF March 3. 1899.
and again under the act OF June 13.
1909. Reports thereon are published
In House Docs. No. 202-56th-1st. and
No. 80. 5S-3d Further investiga-
ton OF this question was authorized

Until this government report be

possible to give any intelligent opin-
ion as to what the Oregon delegation
can accomplish regarding the pur-
chase OF the Willamette locks. The
fact, however, that the state has ap-

upon the federal government appro-

Citizens who are the head of big
business interests, and who are la
boring for the promotion of the large
factors in the development of the
state are learning that Senator
Bourne is a big man In the right
place. Years OF Misrepresentation
dictated by political opposition, have
created an unfavorable impression
that the senator is living down as
fast as he can show by his work
what sort OF an official ho Is in the
place where the people have put
him, and he fearlessly throws down
the challenge that II he does not
make good In that position II is the
duty OF the people TO try some other
man for United States senator.
Bourne Making Good.
After session OF about two hours
with the biggest business men in
Portland, at the Chamber OF Com
meroe Senator Bourne not only salts
ned the most critical. but created
tho unanimous sentiment that he
was thoroughly Informed as to the
needs OF the state. and the actual
status OF every pending improve
mont OF the rivers and harbors. and
had Informed himself at first hands.
He was also able to answer every In
quiry as TO the amount OF every ap-
preparation, expended or unexpend-
cd and spoke clearly and with au-
thority.
For the Big Things.
Senator Bourne also showed by
MS handling OF the subject matter
that he had clear conception OF
tho relative Importance OF improve
ments asked for, and placed Coos
Bay and the Willamette falls and
canal foremost IN the list, and next
afber the Columbia river Itself He
also showed that he had no pet pro-
ieots. but desire to serve the whole
state, and harbor or river improve
ment that Is placed before him, with
requisite data, will be treated In the
same intelligent manner.

Journal Senator Bourne has COM
piled an article dealing with the riv-
lr and harbor improvement work

The article goes more completely

shows the amount OF money required
10 complete the different projects,
the length of time it will require TO

obtained from the completion Of the
