The Oreuoii Electric Railway, ox'rutiiij between Portland
and Eugene, h unable, in pay the intercist on some two million
dollars of ouUtiinding bonds. The company says their inability
i meet the intortht on the liond is due, iiriiicijially, to automobile
i -J.iiiir. This latter mode of transjxirtation is raising the very
I with other roads, as well as the Oregon Electric, and we are
- iderinx what is jroins to b' the ultimate result, if present
i editions exist in regnd to passenger and freight traffic for a
f lew years longer. What . - going to be the outcome to our expensive
; highway system throughout the state, and what is going to be the
jeault if train sen-ice is crippled to that degree that the invest
ment to the stockholders will not justify operation of the railroads
that parallel the i'litilic highway ol tins ana oilier siaies: tan
the ttate nfford to keep up the highways under the present
licensing system, and, with constantly increasing traffic, will it
not be compiled to practically rebuild the highways in a few years
at great e.ense to the taxpayers, the latter already carrying a
burden of taxation that amounts almost to strangulation? This

It is a certainty that we cannot airord to dispense with rail trans
portation. Neither can we say that automobile transportation be
i c mulled. l!ut it is as certain as night follows day that under the
r 'sent pressure of highway transportation our roads will not
Uitet the demand now made for various kinds of traffic for ur.y
Considcrab!e period of time. This state is net settled by people to
; that degree that it can support duplicate transportation Hues with
. any success to the operators. ' It is a lonng game for the railroad:).
. tiiey cannot copo wiui weir tremendous overneaa expense against
that of automobile freight and passenger service, lherefore, the
matter seems to have reached that state of application to the
welfare of this great comtuouwjcalth that it is either a choice of I
future automobile transportation, incurring great additional ex
pense to the slate in the way of upkeep and new highways, wiping
imt all railroads that are directly affected by the new method of
Jtratric, or protecting the railroads to that degree that they can
Dm i id, maintain aiid operate their holdings at a fair profit.
I', , The public, as a rule, is too prone to give just consideration
$y large corporations, esiiecially to railroads, and adverse criti-
joi.im has brought, them into disrepute, many people getting a false
irtrprc;r,ion ns to their real worth. ' This Is an entirely erroneous
and injurious way of building up large industries and adequate
: rail transportation. The railroads of the country are giving a
great service they employ millions of men and these men are
crippled as much as the stockholders when business is diverted
'Into other channels.

What if spring is slow to come in the North or other troubles
hi'.rass the South? The United States bureau of agricultural
i economics promises the nation the biggest strawberry shortcake
V ver! Estimates from the strawlx-rry producing regions indicate
that this year's crop will exceed last year's by no less than 18,7 10

Every once and awhile a human vulture creeps into the lime
light by being taken into custody, though quite a number of these
' fellows are lurking around in almost every hamlet. Hut their
identity is always a mystery unt il their dastardly acts are revealed
' by an attempted at tack on some innocent child. This state has a
Merilization law for just such degeiiniles and we know of no
' N-Lter remedy to clear the atmosphere than the free use of the
eon's knife on any human who would lower himself to that
nv that innocent cliildhond should le subjected to such heinous
'posals as reported in this city yesterday.
When the pavonn n is slippery don't sced, don't apply your
brakes quickly or attempt any fancy capt rs. It can't be done
without serious results. Some of them pa by in h mangled way
tu toil the Mory. Put a litilc, sound common sense while at the
wheel of your machine, with a largo amount of caution, will
usually put you on the safety first list.
