or three occasions talked to me about a

baptism of fire.

ST. LOUIS MEN BUY
Gold Ray Ranch Near Gold Hill to
BE Made Show Ranch-Fine
Bungalow Started.

Frank Parent of St. Louis has pur-
chased through Huntiey & Mac
Claiche a 2S0-acre ranch near Gold
Hill. The ranch is on the Gold Hill
road between Tolo and Gold Hill and
belonged to the Gold Ray Realty
Company. Mr.. Parent, who halls
from st. Louis, is associated in the
venture with his father, Frank Par
ent Sr., and his brother, George Par
ent. The sale brings three or four
families to the valley and no doubt
more will follow. The ranch has eX-
ceptionally fine soil for fruit or grain
and will be developed into a show
place of the valley.
Mr.. Parent has already started a
fine bungalow and will soon start
two more. One feature in connec-
tion with this sale which speaks well
for the valley is that on account of
Mr.. Parents poor health he has trav-
eled extensively during the past year
through Mexico, Arizona, California,
Colorado and Oregon, looking for a
place to locate, and after a stay of
several weeks here, decided to go no
farther.
Mr.. Parent has been a prominent
hardware man of st. Louis and is a
thoroughly modern business man.
He is already strong booster for the
valley. The household goods for the
three families have been shipped and
the families are expected soon.

Hon. e. w. Hocn. who is TO lecture

ernors of Kansas which that state has
ever had. He is an orator and
thinker. Wherever he has appeared,
on either the Lyceum or ChautauQua

lighted as well as instructed by his
message.
During his administration many of
the things which he championed were
crystallized into law. A few of these
may be summed up as follows:

BANDON TO P. E. R. R.
Survey Reported Completed for the
Proposed New Hill Road.

Bandon, Ore, Jan. 15.-The sur
veys have been finished and the
right-ofway secured for the Bandon-
Oregon Railway Company's line, arti-
cles of Incorporation for which were
filed at Salem in October, 1912. The
road when built will not only open
up vast and rich section of coun-
try in this immediate vicinity and
furnish an outlet for this country to
the outside world, but will tap a
country with unboupded resources all
the way from Bandon to Eagle Point.
and will mean millions of dollars
worth of material of all kinds to be
transported here by rail and exported
through the local harbor.
The proposed line will follow the
foothills on the south side of the CO.
guile river, avoiding the marshes
and low land so as to get substan-
tial and permanent roadbed with the
required elevation. Most of the
right-of-way grants were obtained for
81, which indicates the favor with
which the people look upon the
project
The company has secured for dock
age at Bandon the entire river from
Lyons-Johnson's mills, two miles up
the river to the plant of the George
w. Moore Lumber Company in the
town proper. This affords as fine
frontage for depots and docks as
could be desired. At Port Oxford
dockage room and depot grounds
have been secured At this time
there Is no obstacle in the way of
the construction of the road,
The completion of this road will
be the awakening of southeastern
Oregon and will mark the beginning
of new and wonderful industrial
and commercial era. Timber of the
best quality and largest quantities,
mineral, agricultural and dairy prod
ucts, will find their ready market.
and throughout the section touched
by this road all business will be
transacted in volume equaled by no
other territory of same dimensions
under the shadow of the American
flag.
The route of the proposed line ex-
tends up the coast from Port Oxford
to Bandon, thence up the south bank
of the Coquille river past Couuille
and Myrtle Point, thence up the
south fork of the Rogue river noun
tains, thence by tunnel through these
mountains to a point on the Rogue
river 10 or 20 miles above Illahe,
thence. up Rogue river to Grants
Pass, and thence to point near Med
ford, where the line will connect with
the Pacific & Eastern.
The Coquille river valley, Coos and
Curry counties are but small part
of the territory that will be bene-
fitted by the proposed line. The Ga
lice and Rogue river valleys will reap
a decided benefit. The Alameda
mines alone will furnish much bust
ness for the road. The 81 900, ,OO0,-
600 feet of lumber in the Rogue riv-
er valley-every foot of which is
merchantable-wii contribute to the
income of the road.
