Pacific ocean and "help "commerce
on its way.
Looking to the south we had a
splendid view oral! tlii prominent ;
peak hi the Coast range; Mary's j
peak, now dressed in a mantle of j
snow, Grass and Table mountains, j
cold and grey in the distance, while j
south an'd west one has almost a !
continuous view of Rock creek and j
the Siletz river and valley to the i
Agency. The. green meadows,
with here and there a farm house, j
with quiet herds feeding on the !
highlands, calls one's thoughts
back from dreamland to the every ;
day proposition that the far west, i
or wild life in the far west will soon :
be a dream of the past, for Uncle ;
Samrs broad dominions will soon '
be all given away, and where but a,
few short years ago the dusky aa- j
tives fished out of the many brook-1
lets that de.it the Coast rane, or
hunted the lordly elk on the ever
green hills, tie liacks of civiliza
tion and the handiwork of the ever
progressive pioneer can now be
seen. Looking ' due west Cape
Foulweather and the Pacific ocean
come into view. We could almost
locate Toledo and Newpor, tthough
we had no glass. After taking in
this grand view we took our dog
and chased a fine buck nearly over
Senator Crosno and Mr. Porter,
but it being the close season for
that kind of game they wisely re
frained from shooting, but sent a
huge granite boulder after it which
mowed a track for a half mile
down the mountain side, knocking
down small trees and bounding
over logs, reminding one of the
track of a Kansas zephyr.
The trip down the mountain oc
cupied but half the time consumed
in ascending, but one's knees felt
shaky when the level was reached;
but hot coffee, bacon and eggs and
mountain trout, with a good camp
story from Commodore Lucas and
a lively song from Porter soon put
us In better cheer and at bed-time
we were happy and contented.
The settlers in this township
have great faith In the early exten
sion of the Southern Pacific road
from Airlie, the present terminus,
to tidewater on Yaquina Bay, the
distance being only about 38 miles.
Mr, Porter Informed me that he
had fun a level over the divide and
that'a one per cent grade could be
had. ' This road, if built, will corae
through King's valley and up the
Luckiamute, cross the divide down
onto Rock creek and pass through
about ten miles of as fine old growth
fir timber as there Is on the Coast
range. Reaching the Siletz Indian
reservation it would pass through
about ten miles of as fate valley as
can be found In Oregon, striking
the headwaters of the Depot, pass
through the great coal belt to the
junction of Beaver with Depot and
on to Newport, the summer resort
of the Northwest. In my judge
ment there is not another 38 miles
of" railroad in Oregon that has open
ed up the natural resources that
this road would develop should it
be built. There is no reason why
lumber cannot be manufactured and
shipped to San Francisco as cheap
as from this section of the country
as from the state of Washington.
It Is an uudiputed fact that the
Sound country depends upon her
lumber and coal resources wholly.
There Is no reason why Yaquina,
with her splendid harbor, should
not become a permanent coaling
and shipping point. If this road
was oiKTating the Indians could
and would raise a thousand
bushels of grain where they now
raise but a hundred. There is rock
enough iu Granite mountain to
keep fifty trains running dally for
ahundrel years, and of a quality
pronounced by Portland experts to
be equal the Maine or Quiney gran
ite. There is water power enough
flowing r.ist the mountain to turn
the w lice's that would drive hun
dreds of saws and drills. More
salmon a inually goes into the Si
leti; river than into the Alsea and
Yaquina combined. In fact the
whistle
steam in this caamrv of
uiulevclo;,! lesotirces would start
the whet .sot progress and at n. any'
places al..g the road woul l be
heard the musical sounds ol nuns
inventions. white green fields of
nature's smihiigverdue would fon a
a back-gvound to a picture ot pros
perky an I contentment. And now
that thero is every prospect ofa i
