Mr. Wlllinmson will MtrhupH make ait good a Keprosonttttive of Oregon, in Congress a aiiy new man ooulil; at tiny ralo ho will be watchfull, active vigorous, and de termined to do Inn bunt, Yet it was a great mistake, merely be- cnnno llicro was a (aotionul "fight" iu tbo Republican pa'ty, to subsll tuto him, or any other man, (or Uopresonlalive Moody, wlio, it can probably bo said without oxnggoru tion, has accomplished nioro (or hit district and Htuto during li i h (our years' service than any mem ber went of the Missouri rivor. Hu had gained a position o( much in fluence and power. Ho was recog nised as a thorough business man, not showy, but diligent, indefatig able in bin work, knowing juBt what ho wanted and pleasantly persistent in getting it. Hu had been particularly noticed by the President, with whom ho is a favorite, a circumstance of great value to Oregon, if ho could have held his place. The President de Hired to give him a Federal office, but Mr. Moody declined this, say ing he preferred to return bomt und resume his business lifean other Illustration of tee man'i clear, good common reuse and American manliness.

Telegram. flleif lial itspart of Irrigation Probuuit For those who regard irrigation as a local question affecting only the present residents of arid regions the following remarks by Guy 13. Mitchell, editor of "The lloummukcr," o( Washington, D. C, delivered In the course of an address before tho American As sociation for tho Advancement of Kcienco at their recent annual ses sion in the capital city, on Janu ary 2, will bo convincing to the contrary. Mr. Mitchell states that eastern farmers do not profit by tho lesson of the drouth because of unfa miliarity with irrigation methods. There is another and, that the les son of tho drouth is wiped off the slule and soon forgotten by suc ceeding years when the rainfall is reasonably adequate. The an swers to this conclusion are two fold, First, if the rain-bolt farmer will take pains to estimate tho gains by having enough water at the right times during the growing season, although tho annual pre cipitation may bo normal, he will discover that tho net profits will more thun compensate him for the expense of tho installation of ma chinery and equipment. Secondly, tho records of the weather bureau lor the past half century show that a disastrous drouth aeason occurs about every five years. As these drouth years are sure to come again the taring of crops in such years would alone moro than repay tho cost ol estab lishing somo sort of ouxilary water supply.

Owing to the flat refusal of Speaker Hender son to consent U the consideration of Representative Moody's bill al lowing settle: on odd sections within the liiuila.il the conflicting grant to The Dulles Military Wagon Koad Company und the Northern Pacific Railroad, in Eastern Oregon, to have credit on second homesteads for the amount of time and improvement made on tho lands of which they were do- nrived. that measure went to the graveyard, although it had passed both houses. The bill passed the House early in this session, and was amended in the Senate a short time ago, the amendment sending it back to the House for concurrence or confer ence. Tins Henderson relusea to consent to. although he recognized several of the filibustering Demo crat to put through private bills or measures local to their state or district. Ho wos personally ap pealed to by both Moody and Senator Snooner, who put the bill through the Senate, but Btood out stubbornly. The fact that the mil passed the House and Senate thir timo will give it prestige in lh next Congress, however. tailing Short, THE Weekly Journal WILL FURNISH LL THE NEWS ALL THE T1HE An Eight Page, Six Column, Paper, all Home Print.

Old and New Remember The Journal for Fine , Job Printing The Journal Pub, Company It was worth noting that the lacing of both bituminous and an thracite coal in the free list and the proposed reduction in the duties on sugar and other products in the Cuban treaty are the work of the Republican party, which was placed In power in WM that it might restore and maintain the Protective policy. Under the leadership of President McKinley and President Roosevelt, who have recommended reductions in the Dingley Tariff in the interest of so called reciprocity, it is falling very far Bhort of tho just expectations o thousands and tens of thousands of American workingmen and others who voted its ticket in 1890 and again in 1900. If it had been declared in 1900 that it was the purpose of the Republican party to reduce the duties in the Dingley Tariff many thousands who then voted for McKinley and Roosevelt would have voted against them or would have withheld their votes.
