HowoTor, ho refused to give flout details concerning his pana for tensions, saying: .- "I don't Uko to talk about It. It ilways makes a lot of troublo whou we do build and generally costs lots 3f money mora than It would hare sad tho peoplo not known It bofore re were actually ready to start operations." "Tho Wlllaraetto Valley Is all right," ho declared. "I never saw It looking better or brighter. I am lad to boo it so. It shows that the eoplo aro grasping tho idea of re- .Srnlng to tho soil and of cultivating ho land. This ought to bo practiced nore." He, Insisted upon his oft-ropoated idvlco to tho pooplo of tho cities to jo to tho country. Ho said that it Was upon this very thing that the 'uturo development by tho railroads lepended, "Wo must seo business ahead of is bofore wo nro able to spend monoy u improvements," ho said.

Mr Hill spoko optlmlstlcnlly of ho general business conditions of ho country and snld lio lookod for out nuod prosperity. "Business Is improving every- vhero, although thoro is a temloncy oward conservation," ho assorted. 'Especially Is this noticeablo wost t tho Rocklos, but I bollovo this Is good thing, "Such a stato as Oregon has no eason to fear commercial depros ion, Laok at tho record you made tho farm lands.

"Wo shall do as much for Oregon as we havo done for Washington In holplng to build up the stato, and wo shall do It Just as rapidly as con ditions will permit.

"Tho peoplo of tho state aro tak ing hold of tho development question in tho right spirit. It was tho enter prising and pfogressivo men of the state of Washington that enabled that state to make such & marvelous showing as it has done In Increased population.

Barroom ethics in Falls City bT9 sustained ft terrific jolt. The cus tom of jiges has been confronted with a horrible reformation.

Nor can tho thirsty Falls Cltylte say to a casual friend "Just In time, join rao." All this has changed, for tho Council of Falls City has passed an antl-treating ordinance and has limited tho saloons to two. There woro only 14 applications mado for tho two licenses, and some nifty poli tical wire-pulling was exercised and pressure brought to bear on mem bers of tho council for the lifesavlng stations, but nn oven dozen of tho applications were placed In tho Ice-' It is an infringement on box. It Is not tho limiting of thirst hos pitals to two that has caused tho greatest sensation In Falls City, but tho passage of tho antl-treriting ordi nance.
