It may bo Interesting to know something more definite con cerning the territory from whlcn u in nronosed to carve the county oi Nesmlth, one of the"most conspicu ous of county division propositions. The counties of Lane ana uougias, trom which It la proposed to tans 1940 square miles for the formation of Nesmlth, contains 9,241 square miles, or an area equaling ono- seventh of the area of the New Eng1 land states of Maine, New Hamp shire, Vermont, Massachusaetts. Rhode Island and Connecticut, wnuo the area of Douglas county exceeds the area of Connecticut, and that of Rhode Island and Deleware com bined. And Lane county has only G81 square miles less than Its sister on the south. Tho Joint area of these two vast counties Is only 39 square miles less than tho state of Now Hampshire, which has ten coun ties and a population of more than 4KO.000. ' ' To further Illustrate, lot It be said that the entire Willamette valley, the garden spot of the Pacific Northwest, and an empire in Itself, which someday will be the home of two millions of prosperous people, contains, exclusive of tho foothills, 5,000,000 acres, t while Lane and Douglas counties Jointly contain 6,800,000 acres, the former having 2,800,000 and the latter 8,000,000.

A peculiar Interest attaches to the announcement mude by Curtis J. Mar, the president of the Publisher Press of New York that It has se cured under contract the exclusive sorvices of Homer Davenport, tho famous Cartoonist Mr. Davenport has long occupied a position unique In American Jour nalists, "liaised" on an Oregon farm, without having ever received a drawing lesson, his work from the very first created a sensation. It was for sonio time the talk of the Pacific Coast, where his drawings first found their way Into print; but he did not achieve national repeti tion until he moved East; then, al most over night, he Jumped into n nnsitlon of prominence that has not been equalled since the days of Nast v Interesting opinions res lng Davenport's work have been ex- nresaed. but on one point all nis critics have agreed, namely, that his attention wholly to social cartoons. This suggests ouee more ifto com parison with Hogarth The influence of that artist on the social progress and betterment of the Euglieh speak ing people was Inestimable. It was through his work that many of the grossest abuses prevailing in Eng land during bis time were abolished. It would be not at all surprising if Davenport In his new' field should exert a similar Influence Europe. These Sunday cartoons are to be based on "consi-ruotlve criti cism," and 4t Is prophesied the ttey will make a greater sensation than anything put out by the Amercan newspapers for many years.
