OFFICIAL COUNTY PAPER. The Uw requiring the election of road supervisors by the voter of the dUtrict will nscessiute a radical change either in voting precinct or in road districts. The opinion ia freely expressed that too many road diatricta already exist, and more than likely the reaaonableiMM of each an idea will assert itaelf qaite for cibly apon many persona when the time arrirea for counting the ballota nnlea the number of diatricta ia diminished. For instance, in Aoborn precinct there are nine road districts, and there will nndoabtedly be a candidate for super visor nominated by each political party, which woo Id add eighteen names to the regular official ballot for that precinct. This fact alone would prove cumbersome and tiresome, and could only be reme died by dividing the precinct into not mora than two diatricta. In TTnlou pre cinct there are a number of road dia tricta, and the result would be the same in ease the) number ia not decreased. There are thirty-two road diatricta in thia county, and we believe it ia just bout two time too many. In the first place the average amount of salary paid to supervisors ia $50 each, some leas, soma more, when, if the number of supervisors were decreased to half as many, each supervisor would then have to hi credit about flOO, which would be some inducement to put forth an effort. Again, there are some diatricta within the county which contain but ten or twelve persona subject to road work. If men diatricta were joined with some other, better results would be had. A revision of the road district matter ia certain to be had by reason of a law which passed the last legislature, and While thia is going on an effort should be made to adjust the, matter aa correctly aa possible under the circumstances. Of course, thia will prove s more or leaf perplexing problem, and it cannot be hoped to arrange everything absolutely satisfactory at first, and to facilitate matters those interested should have no hesitation in offering aid in way of suggestions. These matter should be settled before the first of the year. Registering voters ia to begin at that time, and if in order to properly arrange the road diatricta it become necessary to create new polling precincts, some inconvenience would certainly arise. Perhaps some polling precinct can be enlarged, others dimin ished in territory and the number re main aa it ia. A road district cannot stand into two polling precinct, that is certain, and the whole system, must, of course, be revised. carry Oregon nest yesr than there is tor ears too few to avcouituodat the over him to carry Pennsylvania. Kentucky ' crowding traffic. There is not a single h may "redeem," and possibly-tha other border Southern States; but of the states ha carried in 1890 ha will lose Washington on this coast, and likely Nebraska and several other Western states. It ia sincerely to be hoped that the movement now on foot to unite the two school districts of Houlton and St. He! ana will meet with public favor and ap proval. The action ia now in thr eui bryo, but aa "great oaks from little acorns grow," so may the effort prove eminently successful. Tha school su perintendent, of course, cannot set in the premises until the proper petition is presented to him, which ia now in the course of preparation. The good to the community to accrue by reason of such move warranto the statement that every qualified person -within the two diatricta should favor the move and forthwith append his or her signature, Tha school Iscilitiea of either of the dia tricta at present, we believe to be wholly inadequate to demands, and if the pro posal is accepted and the aim reached, we will then be in a position to have conducted school which will be credit to us and our locality. On the prominence midway between the two towns can be selected a most suitable site for a large and commodious school structure, in a high, convenient, health ful and quiet location. Let unity of sentiment in this matter prevail to the end that all will be equally benefitted. Ths expression so common among a certain class that tha people are becom ing weary of tha methods of Mark Hanca in "'pludering the country' strikes tha absurd and comical rather than the serious side of life. If Mark's "plundering" continues to put hundreds of thousands of people to work at good wages, tha - country can stand a vast mount of it. Hay be a slight refer ence to tha manner in which the coun try was plundered during the years 1893, 1894, 1896 and 1896. when it be came necessary for the government to issue gold-bearing bond to the amount of 162,000,000 in order to defray the expenses of government in a time of profound peace, may serve aa a soothing application to ths inflamed "brain mat ter" of the perturbed individuals. With the available cash balance in ths treas ury at almost 1300,000,000, and increas ing daily, and the gold reserve being over $260,000,000, it certainly looks as though tha country were being plun dered. The people will accept the latter methods of plundering the country with gracious hearts. Indeed they will. BRYAN'S CHANCES. No new states have been admitted since 1896, the number of electoral votes nest year unless Arizona and New Mex ico are let in, which is improbable, will be ths same 467. McKinley had ninety five votes more than Bryan, who, to win nest year, must carry all the states he did In 1896 and gain forty-eight betides. Sanguine democrat figure that he will receivs twelve of these from Kentucky, three from Delaware, and "perhaps" fourteen from Maryland and West Vir ginia, Then they fall back on Indiana for fifteen votes more, which leaves only four to be obtained, and these, one Eastern paper thinks, may be picked up in Oregon. These estimate are silly, even with-, out such preposterous conjectures. OUR FUTURE WEALTH. That Columbia county has a magnifi cent future before it is a statement that needs no reassuring assurance. The magnificent showing of her wonderful natural resources which are almost daily brought to our attention in one way or another by the natural chain of circum stances occasioned by the activity in farming, dairying and lumbering indus tries, means that an era of prosperity has set in scarcely dreamed of by the county's most enthusiastic friends and supporters. Wealth is all about us, and needs only development. Solid men with capital are directing their attention our way, and quietly taking hold of the problems in practical manner by building mile after mils of logging railroad and lum ber flumes, and starting the machinery that will convert our wealthy forests into ready cash, our farm lands into genuine, good farms by the introduction of modern and lucrative methods. All this is not talk and bombast, but it is intelligent work, bringing rich returns. Very little is beard about all this be cause prospects for future greatness and the accumulation of wealth are the thoughts uppermost in the minds of those now interested in this great and good cause. AH thia mean that many more men arc being given employment at good, living wages, homea are consequently being opened up, and the rate of devel opment ia naturally rapidly on the in crease. Business is being extended, manufacturers will be induced in greater numbers, and, of course, our agricult ural resources developed to the highest degree in order to supply the natural increase of population with the neces sary products of the soil. Agriculture in this county baa undoubtedly made great strides in the way of development within the last few years, and is des tined in the very near future to be brought to such a scientific and profita ble stage as will itaelf support and maintain a large rural population. . There seems at this time to be noth ing that can prevent this country's on ward march, with all the wealth of farm, factory and timber combined to make thousands of people independent, happy and contented. People will naturally come and settle among us ; those espec ially, who are looking for profitable employment and investment. Our peo ple need only to be united and loyal to each other, direct and untiring in their efforts to get the right kind of people here, and then treat tbem honestly, to make tha busiest and most prosperous section in the Northwest. But let us offer this one brief, honest admonition: Continual bewailing of bus iness conditions, unwarranted charges of commercial stagnation, depicting poverty and starvation in our midst, will never accomplish what each good citizen naturally hopes to bring about. The conditions exist which now warrant ui to proclaim to the world that we are doing business on a good, solid commer cial basis, and we invite capital and in dustries to our doors, that the era of pros perous times now with us may be so firmly anchored on so permanent a foundation that reverses cannot dwarf us. All this is now within the scope of possibilities, and eminently certain of promotion if proper business-like meth ods are pursued. Inviting people to our threshold and warning them not to enter under penalty of certain financial destruction, by crying poverty and de pressed business conditions, even though it were so, I unpardonable. First of all, let us study that we may know our duties and responsibilities, and let each one be loyal, at least to his own house hold. . discouraging sign anywhere. Our pros perity ia stable, and will be lastlug, because it rests ou sound foundation, It baa Ita origin in our present system of giving protection to American Indm tries against tha assaults of foreign manufacturers who employ low priced labor of their own countries. It will take wore than Wall street speculation to disturb either the protective tariff or our prosperity. And the man who see sign of a crash ia the victim of a dis ordered imagination and of hopeli pessiniiem. Either that or alsa ha pre dicts the thing which he hope to see, There are men who would gladly see prosperity disappear If they could in consequeuce thereof see republicanism and prosperity wrecked. Cambridge (Md.)Era, ROAD LAWS. It cornea to light that tha last legisla ture adopted a measure calculated affect the administration of road mat ters in all the counties of the state. Al though the new law doea not repeal any of the laws already on the statute books, that is, in so many word by a specific repealing clause, it practically repeal the others or part of them. The statu tory provisions of this state for road business appear to be somewhat mixed. At the present time there are three road laws upon the statute books. One pro vides for the old system of road super vision by road district supervisors ap pointed by the county court, and each one absolutely independent of every other one. Then the other law was enacted em powering the county court to appoint county superintendent over all the pub- lie roads of the county, and to impose a cash road tax for the maintenance of the highways, in place of the toll of labor with which it has formerly been the custom under warrant of the statute to permit the payment of the annual road assessment. Then, later still, at the last sesrion of the legislature, a third law was enacted, making these provisions: The county court "must" divide the county into districts, according to its discretion, and at the general state) elec tion of 1900, and anuually thereafter a supervisor must be elected by tie voters of each district. One provision of the law I that no voting precinct may be partly in one district and partly in an other. Another provision of the law is that when a candidate ia elected to the position of road supervisor, and refuses to serve in that capacity be ahall be fined $25 by the justice court in bi dis trict, the fine money going into the funds for the maintenance of the roads of that locality. All these various laws leave matters somewhat confused. The provisions for the election of supervisors next year is mandatory, but what is to be done be tween now and the next general election is question. In the meantime our public roads are being neglected, and the traveling public ia entering com plaints continually of the unsatisfactory condition of highways. Dcfutt Sbsbutv Day, of Lane county, has absconded with over (2000 tax money, collected during the last two months. He has probably bought a phonograph and gone south. After he ha recovered from the almost certain attack of jungle fever, be will return to Washington, buy a farm, go back to Eugene, be tried and acquitted. That's history repeating itself, isn't it? Day undoubtedly kept close track of matters in other parte of the state. Precedent of that character is a bad thing to es tablish, but then the "people in general are satisfied with such proceedings." Some "good," "honorable" sheriff will steal an entire county some of these days, take it to Africa and establish a refuge home for the "poor" and "Ignorant." W are undergoing an absolute re incarnation of patriotism such aa has imbued American citizenship in every time of war. If today the edict should go forth that American arms should rise in power to conquer the known world, there would a Napoleon spring up to lead our forces in the Herculean struggle. At this very hour the ties of borne are not dearer than our patriotism and love of country, and nothing tends to add fuel to the flame more than the mouth ing of carping demagogues, who by their treasonable utterances, seek to throttle patriotism and trail the star and stripe in the mire of national disgrace. Failures continue to decrease both in number and in the amount of liabilities involved in spite of the democratic de nial that there is prosperity in the land Last month was a record month in that respect, beating the record of the past seventeen years. When it comes to failures, republican times make no pre tense of competing with democratic. In this state ths heat of politics will be at it height next spring. By having election in June, it ia made necessary to go to the expense and annoyance of two election during the year of a presi dential campaign. We can learn of no good reason why all elections should not be held in the fall. There are only a few state that deviate from the rule of holding elections in November, and Ore gon is unfortunately one of them. Tasai is not a single business, so tar as known, which is not prosperous. There Is not an idle workman anywhere who is not idle from choice.
