T 1 1 1 M prcsont storm condition which is so unusual for this part of tho country presents Bomo wonderful lessons if ono will Jtist stop to consider tho human In terest sldo of tho wholo situation. And how quickly wo can chnngo our wholo methods and what a lovcl cr this storm lins been.. The birds of tho forests that formorly Bhunnod ub, and oven tho wild beasts, liavo como into our midst to seek and nsk for food. Our sympathies havo been nrousod for theso wild creatures which a tew wcoks ago Boldom re ceived a passing thought. In a fuw days tlmo oursolvcn and tho birds luivo becomo closo nnd intlmato friends. Tho deer of tho mountains, -which during tho pnst hunting season wo thought only us our proy and our meat, nro now being protoctcd and pltlod by tho humans who sought tholr life and food, but who now en deavor to prevent tholr starvation. Tho powerful machinery and organi zations of tho logging opcrntoni which doflcd nny troo of tho state which might bo covered for lumbor, nro now utterly holplcss. It is n fact that within a fow duys the wild and tho civilized havo boon brought together with ono common lntorcst, our man-mado dovlcos havo proved Inefficient against tho olomonts and we aro vory painfully Bbown that wo aro closer to ntituro than wo thought. What a losflon It has been to tho fnrniors. Thoro is an old Haying that ono mUst "ninlto hay while tho sun hIiIiiob". and novor was It better Il lustrated that this winter, lloroto fpro tho ranchers bollovod thai they need not provido food for tholr stocic In winter tlmo us thoy could always find onqugh ovor tho raugoB and in tho woodB, But this tlmo wo havo had a real winter. I may not happou again but tho stockman lins learned, nnd nt a considerable expense, that ho must prepare in ono season for tho hardships of tho opposite season. In fact tho lesson applies to us and simply brings with greator forco bo foro ub tho fact that wo must In tho sunshiny times storo up for tho bar ren season that is suro to follow. Tho Inconveniences nnd lossos of this uusual storm will havo a haalthy af fect. It brlngH everybody nnd every thing n llltlo closor together, It freezes out nnd snows under a good deal of artificial upon which wo de pend entirely too much, and It makes us realizo many fundamental princi ples which wo aro too lllcoly to over look and forgot if tho sun shono nil tho tlmo.

Consolidation of tho Binallcr school districts is n movo that is growing nil over Oregon. It hns accomplished splondld results, it wns pointed out.

Mr. Dlmmlck Bays that two now under consideration aro of fair ly good slzo nnd havo good passenger accommodations ns well as bolng of good freight tonnage. Mr. Dlmmlck is now looking ovor tho territory with a vlow to finding out what business would bo nvnllablo to tho company in case tho boat should bo put on tho run. Tho plan would bo far tho ship to load lumber on Coos Bny, In its trip from Portland, for San Francis co nt tho Swnyno nnd lloyt mill In North Bond. v Tho moro gross tho fraud tho moro glibly will it go down, nnd tho moro greed lly "bo Bwallowod, slnco folly will always find faith where impostors will find lmpur donee.

Edward R. llaou of Portland Tells of tho Woht Count Association Convention PORTLAND, Oro., Fob. 1. Ed ward B. llazou, president of tho Bri dal Yell Lumbor Co., with offices in this city, has returned from Seattle wheiQ ho attended a mooting of tho West Coast Lumbermen's Associa tion. Speaking of tho meeting Mr. llnzon said: " Tho concousus of opinion among tho delegates at tho convention was that tho uverago market today on lumber was ?i;i a thousand foot. That is too low. Evorybody urged against uight-ruunlng of tho mills, because tho domaud docs not yet Jus tify It. "Whllo tho outlook is good, wo should cousldor that thoro nro io, 000,000 foot dally of idlo capacity (that is boforo tho storm and bud weather of tho past 30 days), which could bo rehabilitated within GO days. It Is doubtful, however, if tho do maud for lumber will bo sufficient to absorb such capacity. " If it had not boon for the storm ami tho bad woatl(er generally much of this idlo capacity would bo run ning now, But tho logs aro not to be, had. And tho log supply will not catch up with tho sawing capacity of thoso plants boforo July. Tho hopo Is that by then tho volumo will bo such that tho market will not bo dis turbed by tho resumption of theso idlo mills." In overy Coos Bay man there Is a llttlo of tho Instinct of a slave; tho Instinct to cringo before power, It Is easier to tell your ago to thoso oldor than yoursolf than to thoso younger.
