MORE RAILROAD DOPE.

NJ J. c. Andrews, of the Great Nor
thern engineering department, spent
Saturday and Sunday in Oroville, and
while here drove down the branch as
far as Tonasket Mr.. Andrews was in
charge o. the engineering crew that
ran the survey for the branch. and
made his headquarters at this place
during the time of construction. His
visit al this time was mysterious and
mystifvine. as like all railroad engi-
neers he has a habit Of holding his
own counsel, but il aroused consider
able anticipation of early railroad
building and started a good deal OF
buZZing. Mr.. Andrews smiled blandly
when approached on the subject OF
railroad building but would not COM
Nit himself as to the object of mis-
falling into town just at that time. II
certainly was not a pleasure trip, and
il is natural TO feel that his presence
was 1Ie 10 growing disposition on
the part OF the powers that be to do
something. Nj Andrews did loosen
up AMI state, however, that the COM
mencament of active construction on
the branch hinged on the result Of an
effort on the part OF the railroad
company &c secure right of wa? be
