Aa usual, crops are turning out
"better than ex;cted." Oregon Is
alright every year, al'hough some
year may be better tbao others.
It has often been said that Seattle
was built on wind. Yet It is evident
that the Seattlelles have been able
to "raUe the wind." for the L. 8

year shows that to be murh the larg

Thousands of eastern people are
coming to Oregon this year and the
almost universal verdict among tbem
upon arrival Is that this country
"looks good" to them.
"Patronlre home Industry" is a
good motto aJI the time. The eastern
mall order houses have no Interest
In you whatever, except to get your
money. Patronize your home dealers
and the money may come bark to
you. but ii it is sent east It it
gone forever.
During the Strawberry Carol va!
here two months ago "The Kno-ker"
was burled. -Vow there seems to be
a sprout springing up here and
there. If you see one, cut it down
and salt the stump, as you would an
noxious weed. We hare no room for

ful natural advantages. Don't let Its
growth be hampered by any growth
of a new crop of knockers of any
kind. No master what the other fel
low does. It's up to you to boost.
Roseburg Is learning a valuable
lesson, and -thai Is that cities are
built up by the people who live In
tbem and do not wait for outsiders to
come and build it up for them. Our
street paving work, now well under
way, is laying the foundation here for
a real city. This fact is 'becomlns
known abroad and many other people
will soon be coming here to reside
Finding conditions congenial they

Once more baa Galveston been ks
sallfed by the storm-driven makers of
the Guif of Mexico, and ink time
there Is no story of death and disas
ter. The seam-all has done its work;
It stands as solid, apparently, as the
foundations of the globe.
The history of the Galveston sea
wall dates from Jfcto. In Septem
ber of that year, while the convention
was in seeeton which framed the pres
ent constitution of Texas, a hurri
cane swept in from the Gulf, of
approximately the same violence and
duration as that of recent record.
Having la mind the frequency of
such storms and their disastrous con
sequences. Judge William P. bal
Unger. a Galveston citiren. a lawyer
of note and a member of the consti
tutional convention, introduced a pro
vision, which was adopted, granting
all counties and cities bordering on
the Gulf of Mexico the right to Issue
bonds (or the construction of seawalls
and breakwaters. Galveston did not
act upon this provision. On the 20th
of August, 1886. another severe
rtorm swept In upon that city. Im
mediately following that. Judge Hal
'inger addressed an open letter to
the citizens of hie town, calling at
tention to their powers under the
constitution and warning them of the
necessity for the protection which the
urovieions of lb at Instrument per
mitted. This letter provoked much
liscussion. but no action.
The night of September 8. 1900.
is memorable In the history of Am
erican disaster. Galveston was nearly
obliterated from the map by the
tugry waters of the Gulf. The loss
of life and property was nothing
hort of appalling. Judge Rallinaer
was long since dead; but upon the
subsidence of the flood waters, and
ifler the first breath of relief from
the horrors they bad occasioned, his
irgent appeal became active, and to
xood effect. The result was the con
struction of the famous seawall.
George W. Bosch ke. engineer In
'harge of the seawall construction.
ha given the following interesting
facta concerning it: The length of
the wall is 17.593 feet. If rests upon
niltnr foundation driven for 4 3
'eet in the ground beow mean low
water. The wall is sixteen fe-t at
he base, sixteen feet high and five
'eet wide at the top. curving from
op to base, and protected on the
lulf side by a double thicknets of
iheet-pHing and by a rip-rap of gran
ite twenty-aeven feet wide and from
hree to seven feet in thickness. The
xst. including the purchase of a
i AO-foot right of may, was tl.'.oo.-
000.
Building this wall broueht wKh it
he problem of regradlng the entire
-It y of Galveston. The op of the
-eawall Is seven and one-half feet
-.bove extreme flood-water mark.
prior to September 8, 1 900. and
something more than a foot above
he flood mark of that year. As es
'abllBhing a proper contour for the
tty. and as furnishing a movt ub
tanilal backing for the seawall It
self, Galveston was raised from eight
feet above mean tide on the bavside
to seventeen feet at the seawall
-n the Gulf side. This grade gives a
tne of one foot in every lfttto frim
he bay to the Gulf, and will forever
revent a disastrous depth of wa'er
:n the city, even If a storm should
'e so violent and long continued as to
tverlap the barrier that has been
raised.
