Easteb Sunday wilt occur this year on the 30th at March, an excptkinally early date, and if an early Easter means au early spring we shall have two occasions for rejoicing. Chicago has ent down the salaries of school teachers without touching muni cipal salaries in general. To an outsider this treatment looks like trying to cure a malady by its aggravation. . In 1850 the per capita of wealth in the United Stale was 1307.69. In 1900 the per capita was $1235.86. with a popula tion increased threefold. The increase in the number of inhabitants in this country is rapid, but the ratio of wealth grows still faster. . Fiouees published by the treasury de . partment place the aggregate of wealth in the United Suites in 1900 at $94,300, 000,000, against total of only $7,135. 780,000 in 1850. By an enormous mar gin this is the most wonderful develop ment of a nation in all history. Kansas has just completed its forty first year as a state, and the anniversary was observed in several places. This is right. Kansas was a long time in get ting into the Union, and its sons bave ever since shown a proper appreciation of the fact that they did get in. Thb gold fields of Eastern Oregon last year produced $16,000,000. Having suc cessfully passed the boom period that region is now getting down to a produc ing basis that makes it the pride of the Pacific coast and a substantial contribu tor to the great wealth of the nation. Nra states and five territories, in cluding Porto Rico, have made appro priations amounting to $1,966,000 for special buildings and exhibits at the St. Louis World's Fair. Thirty-fonr states and territories are still to act and many have the matter nnder consideration. The state exhibits at the fair will repre sent at least $5,000,000 in appropriations. Button and other counties in the state are discussing the new road law, some predicting that it will lie an entire failure. Most of the counties in the state have made a very small levy, one and two mills. Clsckamas county bss worked under this system for eight or ten years, and last year spent on her roads and bridges nearly $60,000. The people of tbe county are beginning to see the result snd approve the system, and this year the board has made a levy of eight mills, the highest ever made. Oregon City Enterprise. Kwano Sit reigns in Pekin, but the empress governs. This means that the old situation baa been restored. The United Suites, England, France, Ger many and the rest of the countries ac credit their representatives to tbe em peror, but the diplomats, when they get on the ground, make their obeisance to the empress. This is a peculiar state of affairs, but the gentlemen who are com pelled to meet it quickly adjust them selves to the situation. It is a condition and not a theory which confronts them. Tbe place at China's council hoard where An sits is the head of the table. Wsrmto your name and address on the upper left hand corner of the envel ope containing your letter, or of the wrapper cuDutimag uiner man matter, is a simple matter, and may often save delay in tne sending oi your man, ana may often prevent its going to the dead letter office. For instance, if you bave written an Insufficient or incorrect ad dress, for which reason the postmaster is unable to tell where to send it; or, if tne postage is insufficient, tbe postmas ter may call your attention to the error that yon may correct it, without mocn delay. Thi English railway managers, who came to tuifc country a low ween ago u) Investigate our systems in their special ties, were trated to a run on a fast train, which mast have enlightened them somewhat as to the soeed oossibilities of American locomotives. -The weight of tbe train was xiu tons, Debind tbe ten der (without engine and tender) and consisted of five cars. A run of 66i miles was at the rate of 76.6 miles per hour, including three checks. During this run 36 ml.es were covered at 81W mile per hour, and one mile at 85.7 mile per hour. The last two miles were run to dead standstill in 120)4 seconds. Tb division of public roads depart ment of agriculture gives assurance that the request for co-operation on the part ol government omciais in practical road building in the state of Oregon will be complied with during the coming sum mer.' It bas been nrged that a number of sample object lesson roads be built in different parts of the state, and tbe di rector of public roads has said that three or four practical road building demon strations will be made In the state pro vided as additional appropriation can be bad. In addition to the object lesson the road department has agreed to aid tba people in building experimental roads wherever they are willing to do their part. Columbia county should ' not be backward in letting tbe depart ment know that we are willing to assist whenever the time is ripe and the de partment ready to demonstrate practical road building in our county. Tuesday of tltis week was the centen nial anniversary of tbe discovery that "the black rocks of the AUeghanies would burn." The rock was considered a nuisance. It was too breakable to be used for building purposes, and it made its appearance in places which otherwise might hare been cultivated to advant age. A century ago a man took word to Wilkesbarre from Mauch Chunk that the rock would burn if persistently coaxed. The people of Wilkesbarre thought it to be a practical joke, but Jesse Felt determined to try it. He told nobodv, but late one night he gath ered a busketful of the article, stole his way cautiously to the house, and after using up a great deal of kindling wood, gut up a fire in the grate which nearly roasted him. On February 11th, 1802. he invited everybody in town to the Fell house to see the rock burn. Everytody went, skeptical snd ready to laugh. This was the beginning of the use of a coal which has changed the business history of Pennsylvania, and which has carried tropical weather to the coldest settle ments of the United Slates and Canada. While the industrial stimulus imparted by the discoverv of tbe anthracite coal beds in Pennsylvania has been one of the chief factors in the upbuilding of the Keystone state, it has proven equally potent in the development of the indus trial resources of the country at large, for whatever prestige we may bave achieved over our foreign competitors in recent years rests mainly upon two prod ucts of our soil coal and iron. Consid ering our indebtedness to coal for much of the prosperity which exists today throughout our borders, it is well that in celebrating the anniversaries of less important events, we should not over look the discovery of the anthracite coal beds of Pennsylvania 100 years ago. The lenten season is at hand, Wednes day of this week being Ash Wednesday, the beginning of lent. The season of social gayety is interrupted for forty days, and in Its place baa come a season consecrated to quiet and religious ob servance. Lent is observed to commem orate the forty davs fast of tbe Lord in the wilderness. The season ends with Easter Sunday, the day of spring cos tumes. Tbe period of fasting is forty days, with all churches which observe lent, except the Greek churches, which have lengthened it to forty-eight days. Sundays are not counted in fast. Pope Gregory, the Great, directed that the season should begin on the sixth Sunday before Easter, and that on the interven ing week days fasting should be prac ticed. Tbe six Sundays included in the lenten period are observed as festivals, never as fasts. The last, or "passion week," is considered the most solemn portion of the season, and is known also as "holy week." The ancient observ ance of lent was of a most vigorous char acter. All flesh and even the so-called "white meats" were excluded. The celebration of marriages and participa tion in common amusements of the social world are looked upon with dis favor during the lenten season. It is already plain that great many Eastern people will come to the North west this year with a view of locating, it having just been learned that there is no more danger from Indians and wild animals in Oregon than in the heart of New York city. In fact tbe people of the East are learning that a glorious Japan current sweeps along tbe Pacific coast, giving the country a special bene fit in the matter of climate, which, backed by a splendid soil, makes this a country tb be desired as a home. The fact that we bave no blizzards or cy clones, and that our people are civilized and up-to-date in everything, is now being gotten into the heads of Eastern people, and the result is becoming ap parent. When the tide once sets toward this garden spot of the world, it will flow heavily, and we will have the in crease in population needed. We have everything else under tbe sun. What we want now is people. It has not been many years since a noted scientist, in an exhaustive article, satisfied himself and thousands of others that tbe telephone could never be brought into practical use. Today it is estimated that there are 2,278,000 tele phones in the United States alone. No man attempts to do business now with out the aid of the 'phone. Business is transacted over toe lelepnone, although the parties are separated by thousands of miles. The borne and the office are connected by means of tbe telephone. These instruments have now invaded the country districts, and the telephone and tbe free delivery of mail are going nana in nana, in many states thou sands of farmers have the telephone in their homes, and they find it of immense advantage in a business and social way, and yet the telephone is not very old. C. W. Fulton, of Clatsop county, for United States senator, and T. T. Geer, the present incumbent, for governor, would prove a strong team witb the peo ple of this county. There is little doubt about this county sending delegates to the state convention whose, sympathies and good judgment would prompt them to support both these gentlemen. Mr. Geer's popularity throughout the state insures bis renomination, and be would not be thus popular nnless bis adminis tration had been successful and was en dorsed by the people. Mr. Fulton is a Columbia river man and an able states man, besides being immensely popular throughout the state, and this county will do nothing else but support him. The law governing tbe payment of taxes has been changed. If you wish to get advantage of the rebate you must pay before March 15th. You must pay at least half of your. taxes by April 15th, or you will have a penalty to pay. Tbe law provides that half of the taxes can be paid in the fall if half it paid before April 16th. On that date, April 15th, all taxes become delinauent and a pen alty of 10 per cent is added unless half ol your tax is paid before that time. This time cannot, by law, be extended. Do not put off the paying of part of your taxes Deyond tnat date, unless you want to pay costs. In the past the time has been extended; it cannot be done tnis year. Medical Attention, Ifot fipan. Jury. To the Editob. Apropos to tb con tinued iteration of tbe Gazette calling for a grand Jury to examine the books of certain of the county officers, it is perhaps pertinent to suggest tbat the county court call to its aid two medical expert and make an official inquiry into tbe mental chaos of the Gazette editor, inasmuch as such an investiga tion is necessary, under the law, regard less or tne plainness oi tne case. When a man reaches tbat point in his intellectual itinerancy where nothing but uncleanly apprehensions are the burden of bis thoughts, where he mounts a bobby and rides, John Gilpin like, over the sensitive nerves of decency and lofty integrity, his case is xurely one calling for the holding of "leets and law days," and for tbe proper authorities to sit thereon "in meditations lawful."

Prof. Esson ha gone to Multnomah county to complete his examination for a state certificate. He has a brother living there, where he will stop for the time. Miss Mabel Blackford is serving as a substitute teacher in Miss Tracy's room, while the latter has charge of the prin cipal's room during his temporary ab sence. As result of the melting snow and recent rains, the Clatskanie river is now fillet! with logs from tbe bridge nearly all the way to Adam Barr's place, there having been a splendid run of logs dur ing Saturday and two or three days after. Changes have been taking place in some of our suburban real estate. In Haxel Grove, Grant Jones bas bought the Charles Rice property, while Rice has bought the E. Haukins place, and the late owner of the latter place thinks of making another move to Malheur county, bis second veuture in that di rection. James Van is reported to have sold bis house and part of his ground just outside th city limits, occupied at S resent by James McDonald and lauiily. lr. Miller, sr., of Nehalem, is the pur chaser. Several of our business men and ship pers came together Friday of last week to meet Superintendent McGuire and Engineer Curtis, of the A. 4 C. R. R.', to induce them to use their influence in having a track laid from the main line to a point opposite the town. Mr. Kingsley, of the West Oregon Lumber Company, was present and represented the necessity for railroad facilities to in duce the location of their proposed plan ing mill and dryer at this place. "Other interests were represented and made a strong presentation to the officials present in favor of the spur asked for. Later in the day paper was drawn up asking for th track, promising right-of-way and terminal facilities, and ex pressing the belief that other shipping interests would be attracted by the action asked for on the part of the rail road company. This document was numerously signed and presented to Superintendent McGuire, who promised to present the matter at once to the president of the road for action. The planing mill company want both rail and water privileges and can secure both if the proposed extension is made, which there is good reason to believe will be done. In the meantime the right-of-way for a flume is being secured and work on it construction will prob ably begin in a very few days.
