JUKE 28, 1901.
That ia wholtHwiroe advice contained
in the letter to William Reid, eciftary
of the wind jammer's railroad from
Portland to Tillamook, written from
Spokane by II. W. Cottle. Reid can
accomplish more in his mind than any
other gentleman ho ever came to this
coast, tiia schemes show tip well on
paper, bat there they invariably end.
Weill's railroad from Portland toTilla
taook Is still a thing of the future, and
mighty long way in the future, too.
People are becoming impartial in
Arkansas. A man and his wife swore
that a negro had made an assault on the
woman and he was arrested, convicted
and sentenced to be bung the latter part
of this month. The woman could not
stand the strain on her conscience and
confessed the other day that they had
sworn falsely. A mob attended to the
case at once. They gave the man five
hundred lashes and put him on a train
with the promise to hang him If he ever
put loot on Arkansas sou again.
Ix many of the richest, most fertile
barts of this count there is scarcely
any, if any settlement at all. In this
fact Hea one of the greatest obstacles to
the achievement and maintenance of
good roads. With but an average of one
settler to a square mile the cost ol good
roads can scarcely be met. When we
have arrived at the happy condition of
having at least eight, and better, six
teen farms to the square mile, then will
the country be on a money-making basis
and the realisation of all the conditions
which make rural life pleasant and
profitable.
It may teem like a broad statement,
but it ia" probably a safe one to make,
that the railroads form the most stupen
dous industry within the United States.
The capitalization of the railways of
the United States is $11,000,000,000.
These railways employ more than 876,
000 men, and for the fiscal year ending
June 30th, 1900, they paid to their em
ployee aa compensation for services
more than 1406,000,000. There is an in
describable fascination about the rail
road business for nearly all who once
embark in it. It demands a degree of
close application and forgetfnlness of
elf interest which is not demanded or
accorded elsewhere.
Th lesson taught by the experience
of linn county in its failure to make its
tax levy .sufficiently large to meet the
running expenses should be profited by.
Similar demands were made of the offi
cials of this county, but instead they
courageously kept up the levy, and as a
result the county is practically free from
debt. Besides paving running expenses
a debt of about tW.OOO has been paid
within three years. The rate of taxa
tion, to be sure, has been high, but the
burden has been eliminated, and the
future will undoubtedly bring relief
from the bigh rate. Linn's officials
owed to the wind and have reaped a
Whirlwind.
Kansas is in dire need and appeals to
the country for assistance. She wants
help, and nothing short of 20,000 help
ers will satisfy her. The wheat crop is
to be cut, stacked and threshed within
a short time. The harvest promises to
be great. .Laborers are lew. jn tne
next three months at leat 20,000 of them
will find steady work and fine wages in
Kansas, and the states north and west
are in similar need. Iowa will want
help, and so will Nebraska, Minnesota
and the Dakotas. These states simply
languish in their need for workers.
Tbey ought to be equal to their oppor
tunity. Ureat and golden as our pros
perity is, it must be met and utilized or
it dissipates.
A Koran mechanical inventor says
there will never be a successor to toe
bicycle because "there can never be a
less amount of material put together
With greater skill that will answer the
purpose of human locomotion with
greater pleasure and ease, or at less
original cost and current expense to the
rider. To consider its lightness; its
delicate beauty of appearance, strength
and endurance ; the price at which it is
eold ; the uses it serves, and the pleas
ure and health it gives the rider, it must
unhesitatingly be pronounced the con
summate achievement ot our mecuain
cal development and the most benefi
cent contribution that invention has
made to civilization. It is so unique
and superlatively perfect that it has no
rival and can have no successor." Just
wait until the flying machine is per
fected.
A fsw days ago we read of the death
of a man who had resided in Oregon
thirty years. He was a farmer. ver
since he arrived at the age of twenty
one he had been a hard worker. Was
there a circus in town he and his family
could not find time to go. He could be
seen on the Fourth of July working,
while the neighbors went to some picnic,
or to town to bear the eagle scream and
cannon boom.. He arose at 4 a. m., and
worked as long as he could see. He
amassed a competency. He was long
on dollars, but short on amusements
and happiness. He has gone over the
divide. He had no pocket in his shroud
and consequently took no money with
him. Would it not have been better if
be bad allowed himself a little time for
recreation t Would it not have been a
good scheme for him to have gone to the
coast or mountains for a week's vaca
tion once or twice each summer?
While we should be diligent in business
we do not believe that we should be
slaves to it. We shall be a long time
dead, and would better extract some
pleasure out of life from day to day.i
we have no promise of the future, j
While we live, lot us live. 1

THIRD TERM PROURAHXS.
i -i .. ' - v ii.i.i
: ivotninir remains nuw m nnniwiiH
possibility eats, the renointnation of
Govt CluVtfa&J. Mr; .Ctewmrt ri
already had three nominations, but he
' has been preaidcut but twice, and lm
never said that he would not run again.
: lie ia rather more than the loeioal can'
didate of the party. He is the only
i democrat elected to the presidency sineo
the calamity of James Buchanan in
.185(1. The failure of the party since
j breaking with Mr. Cleveland has lieeu
most aweeping. A huge republican
majority in 1SH8 was followed by one
Mill larger in 1900. The fnrther the
democratic, nartv drifts from Mr. Cleve
land the worse it is off. Standing by
bint it is wrong, but without hi m il is
ridiculous. If the democratic national
committee should go to Mr. Cleveland
in a tuirit of contrition and aeluiowl
dire that he is a democratic necessity.
as proved by the political history of
forty years, it would at least get out of
the wooas ana nna itseu on a iraveteu
road.
The reomtnixers are friends of Mr,
Cleveland and regard him as the most
eminent man in the party. If he is not
entitled to that station, who is? Of
course, it will be proposed to nominate
some other democrat in 1904, but the
vrriin fact of the business is that only
one G rover exists. Olney wabbled over
to ttrvan in the last campaign ; Uorman,
the oleaginoUM. has lost his grip on his
own state; Hill is too easiiv impelled by
panic to crawl up into Wolfert's Roost
and slara the trap door; but drover ia a
husky block of granite, with two terms
inscribed already ana room remaining,
as far as beard from, for third. As
the democratic papers of late have been
much exercised about third term, they
can apply their remaining ammunition
to a Cleveland boom, and they cannot
deny that the democratic party without
i rover is simply a set oi wheels witu
out linchpins.
Tm Fulton-News- Astorian controversy
regarding an open river from the sea to
Portland is asrominsr greater propor
tions than was expected or desired, no
doubt. Mr. ul ton's position is correct,
and is shared in undoubtedly by many
liberal tninded people in Astoria, but
there are eutiicieut numbers of people
of the opposite faith there to cause his
candidacy for the United Btatea senate
to receive a black eye in his home
county. Astoria papers have contended
against an open river to Portland by
federal aid for the last twenty-nve years,
and they are farther away from a reali
sation of their hopes than they were
before they entered upon their rasbiy
impetuous contentions. To corral the
commerce of the mighty Columbia at
Astoria is a proposal as unwise and an
likely as the construction of a railroad
to Mars. tjeass your bickerings, Drotft
era. and loin in tne cborus that is shout
ing for progression and a mightier Co
lumbia. The events of the past two
yeais the hundreds of thousands of
dollars of exports from this river
should demonstrate to you that, con
tend as stubbornly as you may, Portland
is still, and will remain the shipping
point for the commerce of the Colombia
river.
The article published in onr news col
umns this week, from Wednesday's
Oregonian, purporting to establish the
reasons lor tne aeiay in construction
work on the Northern's branch road to
Pittsburg, bears the earmarks of the
pen of William Reid, who can accoro
plish nothing himself and extends his
influence to cause delay to others. The
Northern's undertaking is the only pro
posal ever made to build a road into rie-
halem that has benina it a semblance
of genuineness, and the cause of their
delay is not going to be made public.
Besides tne work ol securing a route
through the mountains, there are count
less details to be looked after, and when
everything is in readiness the construc
tion of the line will be proceeded
with, regardless of Mr. Reid or anybody
or anything.
The populist f.-ator, Chas. A. Towne,
has forgotten that liberty is expiring and
has turned his back upon the strumclins
masses who depended upon him to get
their wages paid for them in fifty-cent
dollars, has ceased to try to boid the
crumbling constitution together, and
has, in tact, gone off arm and arm with
the octopus. Nor is this all. Mr. Towne
has not been content to work his own
downfall, but he has carried others down
with him. Mr. Towne has paid 2o,WX
for an oil land tract in Texas, and with
him has associated Govenor - Benton
McMillan, of Tennessee, and ex-Gov-
erner Hogg, of Texas, iu a (5,000,000
company. It is bard to believe these
things of McMillen and Hogg; but, after
this news about Towne, we suppose that
we may believe anything.
Opposition Steamers Coming.
It is again reported that Captain E.
P. Parker, of Astoria, will put the As
torian on the Astoria-fortland run and
cut freight rates about 40 per cent. A
rumor is also current on the Astoria
water front that the Regulator line
which operates steamers from Portland
to the upper river intends to retaliate
for the White Collar line placing the
steamer Bailey Galzert iu opposition to
its boats. It is stated that the Regula
tor line will place the fast steamer Re
liance on tbe run between Portland and
Astoria during the summer season at
about half the rates charged by the pres
ent combination of the transportion lines.
Tbe Reliance will handle no freight ex
cept personal baggage, and will be an
exclusive passenger boat.

Take Oat Door Exercise.
This worthy advice from one of our
exchanges is worth heeuine: "Take as
much outside exercise as it is posRible
lor you to get. Tbe greatest of ait dis
infectanta is fresh air, and properly ap
plied it will clear the brain as effectually
as it win expel microbes irom tne body.
In co-operation with its partner, exer
cise, fresh air will successfully perform
the work of raisin the eoirita. brighten
ing the faculties, stimulating the ener
gies, rousing the ambitious, doubling the
muscular strength, and establishing the
good health of men. The average Amer
ican man and woman, is Indifferent to
fresh air, and positively hostile to exor
cise. This is due partly to bis concen
tration on business, partly to the fact
that to combine exercise with fresh air
has always been a bit of a bore. It
meant to take walks to nowhere in par
ticular or to undertake outdoor labor for
no particular end."
On July 3rd and 4th tbe Astoria & Co
lumbia River Railroad Co. will sell
round trip tickets between, all points at
one and one-third times the regular

Strange Indebtedness of 7,tM0.00
Create la a leaf.
About a year ago County Judge Bar

lion" up in l.lnn county was heralded up
and down the countryside by the judge
and his friends. Newspaper that dared
to question the financial statement of

liars because they told that Linn county

economy was simply political buncombe
to tool the taxpayers, and tne county's

tered until a large debt has accumulated,
the people are entitled to know about it.
A plain statement from the present ad
ministration is due to the people.
Commenting upon this condition of af
fairs in Linn county the Salem Sentinel
savs:
'JUnn county has bad to borrow $07,
000 to meet deficiencies caused by its
low tax levy, and pays 8M per cent In
terest on the same. The Lebanon Cri
terion, in an editorial entitled, "We Told
You So," comments as follows:
" 'It is hoped that the amcunt will
make up for the deficiency caused by the
failure of the county court to levy a suf
ficient tax tor ordinary running expenses.
The people now realise, when they are
requires to pay iuiere on foi ,uw, wuat
i . . , i. - ,m mA . k. .
it means to nave a low tax levy maae
solely for campaisn purposes.' "
"The Salem Journal, which during the
last campaign, held up unn s low tax
levy as a campaign argument, now pro
ceeds to roast the "reform" officials ot
Linn tor not raising the debt by popular
loan at 4 per cent instead of paying the
banks 5Ji per cent. Venly, in Linn
county, aa elsewhere, the way of reform
for political purposes only, leadeth to po
litical disaster."
Leaaed the Meaty to Radir.
It la stated that George W. Davis, the
defaulting clerk of the state land board,
loaned the missing $31,000 to W. T.
Radir to buy timber lands, and that
Radir was unable to make sale and
repay the monev, but since Rndir's
death the lands bave been sold and the
widow received the proceed from them.
Now, from all appearances, no one is to
beheld responsible for the loss to the
state. Affairs must be in a very rotten
condition when an official may loan or
appropriate to his own-use the public
funds in his hands and receive no pun
ishment therefor. Will the courts place
a premium on wholesale stealing from
the state by making no prosecution of
this case T McMinnville News.
Radir, it will be remembered, died
from ptomaine poisoning about two
vears ago, while cruising timber in
Clatsop county. He, with three other
men, perished at the same time and
from tne same cause.

It ia likely the rate war which for so
long was vigorously waged between
I. muni , UII.ICI BUM 11... I VU UU BlUH,
and W. E. Newsom on tire other, will
be resumed. Kumor baa it that Mr.
Newsom is looking around for a boat
suitable for the purpose to take the
lace of the Iralda, which he sold to The
alles, Portland and Astoria people
when the 25-cent rate was declared by
both rail and water lines, and it is said
be has already procured one. It was
owinir to tbe keen competition between
the two factions that the little steamer
Athlon, which recently went to the
Hound, was built. The business to
Rainier is an important one, and should
Mr. Newsom place a 25-cent rate in ef
fect, it will bother the other lines plying
on the river.
