The ,' Investment of fourteen millions of dollars Is alone an important item I in Pacific coast business but there is another significance to the vie- . tory of the (treat Northern. The decision definitely points to the stimulation of competition between ', important railroads as a matter of public policy. i V.'e may expect, therefore, that af, least one intermediate port be- twecn San Francisco and Portland ! ,vJJI be developed and perhaps two ' or three. Previous to the recent do i cision such a dvelopment could not I be predicted with entire safety. ' What are llio possibilities? They ! are, briefly,, the Port of I'mpnuu,. the Port of Coos Pay and tho . Crescent City port. ' The future of Roseburg and ! Douglas county Is bound up tightly ' with that or cither Coos Bay or tile Vnipqun port or both. I When the Southern Pacific built ' its road to Reedsport and to Coos ' Hay from Eugene nothing' niuch was accomplislied lor those ports i other than to make it easier to !; send people and rrelghl In and out. 3o terminal of Importance wits created for the' reason that it. is al most exactly as far by rail now ."Trom Eugene to Portland as It IS i-from Eugene to Coos Hay. Since I! Portland's port facilities nro ob vlously superior, Portland con stitutes to be Eugene's outlet to the ;ea, and Coos Hay has languished "these twenty years without the rwil development. It should have en Jdyed ns the result of having be "comea, tonuinal of a railroad. Should the Southern Pacific ex 's" lend Its allied lino which' now tor- , minutes at Eureka, on up Ilie const '' to Coos Pay llltlo would be tic .1 romplished again, other - than to rive the Southern Pacific a shore lino road. Nothing much, that Is " would accrue to Coos Hay ns the "result, of such railroad construe tlon. '' On the oilier band, should the "order or the llilcislnte ronimeiv Tnmnilsslnn be upheld, dlrecliii Uio I'nlon Pacific to build from J Cnmo in easieru Oregon across ! eniiii-nl Oregon, connecting wilh ' other rails at Crescent Lake, near the eastern foot of the Cascades, and should such construction be continued down Ilie fmpqua pass nnd on to Coos Pay anil to Meeds Witt, that would menu great de Mjiupment. Such construction Ktiulif create at its ocean terminal STdlstiiliutius point which would Wrvt a vast empire both east and MHt of the Cascades. Not only JJSt, but the vast timber llcreai;!' 4-.ho l'niiKjiia watershed would be JfJi-csslble us tonnage to make the 4ne pay. 2IDur Interests are bound very rlnaely to those of Ilie ports of Eios Hay and at Hie mouth of the Tmpqm. Their development and STirs depends upon the tiltimale Trmslructiou of the cro.isstale line the. sea. Their development and Xai depends also upon the con itruclloii of a highway to eastern BrrKon up the North Vtnpuna rlv Tr. Their development and ours ile jmdB also upon the ultimate bar lejillns! or the ureal Umber ro wtirces of (he 1'inpqua watershed. H.We have much 111 common with Ttn coast tl. lBhhors. The lime is iHMracliiii when we may reason Silly expect some or this develop tmit to come to pass.

There Is a succession of floral wonders, wild and riotous, t'iratll fields stretch level with the fences, rippling like green lakes in he bieeze or like a sea touched with sunsl cold as tile heavy heads droop uith their own weight as the crop ripens. Across clear and sparkling creeks- and rivers, over bridges of artistic beauty or occasionally by Terry boat where bridges yet await the builder's hand, our tourist friends will go over highways that are surpassingly excellent. They will pass through bustling, lively ! cliles with residential sections of tree-lined and lovidy grounds. They will, lilt through sleepy villages where the service stations alone strike the modern note. To many Caiilornlans. accus tomed to order and regulated scen ic settings, where every palm tree is counted and every fruit tree a dependent ou the hand that gives it water, where grass is something to look at and not walk on, the contrast must seem erent. Hut, J"t us admit that we are partial. Kven to us, there is something over whelming in the riotous growth of our mist led, ami In winter, rain drenched forest and plant lite. Our western Oregon has and probably always will have a touch of the primitive about It. it is a lialf tarned land and escapes Trolll hu man control. if we leave one of our trim city homes for a mouth of vacation, we come back lo a semiwilderncss. Hvery living thing takes advantage of us and goes on riot. Thai Is why there are bo many farm houses that look unkempt. In a single season a larm house and other buildings.

In our damp climate, paint quickly loses its lustre and a few years gives the unpainted building a weather beaten appearance. So. Oregoniaus have acquired a reputation for shiftlessness prob ably quite In excess of their de serts. They must ever be holding nature at bay or nature will appro priate all they have temporarily won front her sovereignty. The lure of western Oregon must certainly be felt by many who come on a casual Journey of sightseeing.

However, as this young man lives quite a distance from me, 1 shall probably lose track of him If we do not correspond. We have no telephone, and the boy does not know my address, al though I know his. Because of something which has recently hap pened he could not procure it from my friends. , As I should like very much to continue a very pleasant friendship would it be permissible or pi-opor for me to write" to him first? LOTTA T. LOTTA T.": Your letter indicates that you and the young man have, mutual friends. Surely your friends can find a way of inform ing the young man of your address and if he wants It he will never rest until he obtains it. When writ ing to your friends you might ask them 10 convey your kind regards and wishes to the young man. DEAR NANCY LEE: We are two girls In our early teens. Our parents object to us keeping company with boys. Other girls our age in this community keep company and we would like to also. We would like to have your suggestion on what age girls should begin keeping company. QUESTIONING FRIENDS.

Cokely, meilt packer of San Jose, Cal., a nice steak off a prime horse Is as roou as beef. Cokely suns Ills praises of horse stesk after his arrival here to back up his belief with purchases of horses. He plans to buy some of the ponies being rounded up on the Owyhee county ranee for shipment td his San Jose plant. He said much of the better grade horse ment is sold on the Pacific coast and is In great demand. Seattle, Portland and Sitn Francisco buy large quantities of the meat, be said, it is sold under its own name at a price less than that tor beef. Cokely asserted. One of the hardest Jobs. Cokely snld. was to get the owners of horses to admit having any wild horses for sale, due to their fear of the nssessor. Ranchmen with as few as five horses listed on their tax rolls will ship as many as onn horses to the packers dur ing the season.

" by Carolyn Wells 1 CHAPTER XLV. ' Dctor Eaton lett the sickroom with a heavy heart. He knew a lot about the results of shell shock, and this present case showed many symptoms. His diagnosis, corrob orated by his conferees, was that the whole illness of Emily was the result of shock or by some fright- ening occurrence or. series of occur rences. The latter most likely, for one snock, however great, could scarcely reduce a strong, healthy girl to this pitiable, trembling wreck or humanity. But the doctors all agreed there was nothing to be done but wait and let nature do all lt could by Itself In a recuperating way. Emily took the nourishment they offered and swallowed milk or broth naturally and with no un willingness. This led to a more assured opinion that physically there was little the matter with her. But when the sedative effect wore off and consciousness began to return, then came about the ter rible spells of hysteria and appar ent dementia. About dawn Ettillv had one of Ibese attacks and became so vio lent that they were obliged to re strain her by force. ... "1 must gel out of the window," She cried, not loudly, but with a low piteous moa. . "I must get out of Hhe window!" "Yes, dear," soothed the nurse, "yes, you shall get out of the win dow. Just wait till afternoon. Take a nap first." And so receptive was Emily's disordered brain that she obeyed and went to sleep as suggested. Then In a moment slie was wild again, tossing her restless head and throwing her arms about. Patiently the nurse soothed her and tried to calm her. Sometimes the efforts were successful, some times not, but the nurses, frequent ly relieved, were Indefatigable and persistent in their determination to do their part toward the recov ery of Emily Duane. Not ' only was it a celebrated case, as well as the most important and Interesting case the hospital had ever had In its brief career, but they all loved Emily, they all admired Rodney, and they outvied one another in their work of res cue. 1 At seven o'clock, when Emily chanced to be quiet, a nurse took occasion to tell Rodney he nau better go home and freshen up and get his breakfast. You can get breakfast here If you like" she went on, smiling at him. "but I'm sure you'll fare bet ter it Knollwood. And yon can t see Miss Duane today in any case. Perhans not for several days. "But she's getting better. She's doing all right?" begged Rodney and the nurse was moveu to give him some details. "Yes." - she said, .picking her words carefully, "she's doing all the doctors can expect or hope for at present. They want to build her up physically before she is ques tioned or even spoken to." "Has she said anything at all?" "Nothing coherent. I was with her about three or four o'clock, when she woke suddenly and seemed to want to talk. I didn't discourage her exactly, and she tried hard to say something. But she couldn't get the words right. Then she waved her arms about and said thickly, 'Can't talk get pen- ' So I offered her a pen cil and a paper pad. But she only stared at me and said, 'No, no get pen ' Well, of course, I didn't dare bring her pen and ink. for she's likely to flin? it all over the sheets, so I said, 'Yes, dear. tomorrow we'll get a pen for you,' f and she smiled almost rationally, and dropped ott to sleep like a lamb." Rodney listened, glad to hear tiny details, and then he said: "Thank you, nurse. It's plain to be seen she wants to tell of her experiences, but she can't com mand her speech yet. If the doc tor will let you, give her a pen today, but, of course, don't do anything he thinks unwise." "No, sir" said the nurse, de murely, quite willing to let this nice young man think he was giv ing her valuable advice. Sayre went back to Knollwood. greatly heartened by his talk with the nurse. It brought Emily nearer to him to hear these details of what she was doing and saying. Had he known the real truth of her terrible night, he would have felt less secure of her ultimate re covery. ' At the breakfast table all tried to be cheerful and hopeful. Aunt Judy was fianktv jujbllant over Emily's return and was sure that i she would soon be her own self again. Pete was worrying about the po lice. He hadn't mentioned it, but he felt sure the moment Emily was well enough they would arrest her for Polly Pennington's murder. Emily arrested for murder! The iden was so absurd as to seem im possible, hut Pete knew how stronaly Ijiwlor believed In the girl's guilt, and whatever the out come might be lt would mean a lot of trouble and publicity. netty was a little downcast, fo" 'she had had a relative who had lost his mind through the effect of shock, and she secretly feared for Emily. Fleming Stone, pleasant and kindly as always, ws abstracted and thoughtful. Vie roused to sharp attention when Rodney related what the nurse had told him. For Sayre. so pleased himself ;o learn details of his darling's do ings, wanted to pass tlie story r.n to interest Aunt Judy and Betty. But of them all Stoue showed the deepest Interest. "Tell that a tain. Sayre." he said, excitedly. "Tell It exactly as the nurse told It lo you." Nothing loath. Rodney repeated it ail. being careful to quote tit1 ... ...t t,..,.l ,.f II... t,,,,w "1 shall have to go right :o New York." Stone said, as they rose from the table "Pete, you keep an eye and ear for anything that may happen. Of course, no body can question Emily or even see her, I suppose, but get from the nurses a full account of any thing she say or does. It may mean everything in, our search for the villain who brought all this about. I shall stop at the hospital before I co to the train, for there may be some further news.' Stone hurried off, and though wondering what had given him this new Impetus they could scarcely think it was Emily's suggestion of writing what she could not say. And yet it. was. Fleming Stone stopped at the hospital on his way to the station and asked for Doctor Eaton and for the nurse who had been with Emily during the early morning hours. "You see. doctor." the detective said, "our suspicions are weil founded. I don't know where Em ily has been kept these, six days, but we do know who kept her cap tive. We don't know how she .got out, and we can't know until either she or her captor tells us." They talked for a few moments longer and then the nurse they had summoned appeared. "Has Miss Duane said anything rational?" Stone asked her. "Not rational, no," she replied. "But she babbles a great deal. Most of it is incoherent and of no sense at all. But some few phrases recur continually. She is always asking for a pen, but given either a pen or a pencil she cannot use them. She makes meaningless marks on paper and then throws them down. And she says over and over, 'Double you, double you.' Whether she means the letter W or what she means, I don't know. But it's everlastingly, 'Double you, double you,' and once she said clearly, 'R9 member, double you!' and then she went off into unconsciousness again." "Thank you." Stone said, speak ing so fervently that the nurse stared. (To Be Continued Monday) TILDEN CAPTURES BRITISH TITLE IN FINALS AT TENNIS tVlMBLEDON, England, July 5. Bill Tilden won the British ten nis singles championship today for the first time since 1921, defeating his sensational young countryman, Wilmer Allison, in the final In three straight sets.

ANGELS INCREASE LE.D BY DOWNING PORTLAND TWICE Dy the Associated Press Southern California teams feel the most prosperous in tlie Pacific Coast league today as a result of the holiday bills, in which Los An geles and Hollywood cleaned up with a bang by winning double headers. The Angels increased their lea gue lead to four games, with ten to play, by downing Portland twice, 10 to 0, and 6 to 5.
