The number of entries, filings
and selections in the 26 - U S
Land Officei in fire states w.st
of tbe Rocky mountains ag
gregated for the nine months
, euding with, March 1W)5
22,334 . viz. . Mantana 4833
Washington 4,659, Idaho 8,666,
Wyoming 3,204, Oregon 6,167.
' These figures put Oregon ahead
of any of its neighboring states
named. ,'
. The five land offices in Ore
goo, for tbe nine months end
ing with March 1905 recorded
gentries filings and selections an
follows Burn"49,"La Grande
1435, Lakeview 768, Oregon City
681, Roseburg 1041, Tbe Dalits
2,193. The Dalles did a little
more than one-third of tbe land
office business ,done in Oregon
for the nine months a act that
shows that people ' seek lsnd
where there ia a pros'peot of jn
creasnd faoilities for utilizing it
The' prospect of the , construc
tion of the Canal at Celilo at a
'i
near future, and several irrigat
ing enterprises in that land
district msy be given as tbe
cause for a greater desire for
land in th it district than others
in the state. Tbere enterprises
in that land district have proved
a catching 1 advertisement for
that region from which other
districts would be wise in tak
ing a hint. The most effictive
,,'way to advertise a reagion is 1 to
increase the , opportunity for
men to make a living therein.
Tourists , make temporary
visits to counties to view their
scenio grauderue, and for a abort
time enjoy their genial clime",
hut homeaeekers hunt out lo
calities where the opportunities'
for. establishing homos and
maintaining them in coraforf,
with civilized surrounding are
greater than in their native
heaths. This is illustrated by
the figures from tbe land office
in the regions on the Columbia
and Snake rivers both of which
will be opened to navigation
for long distances by the con
struction of the canal at Cehio,
now being prosecuted by the
United States. The laud office
at the Dal'es on the Columbia
a few mVes I t low Celilo did
mere thuu oue-tbird oi tbe en
tire laud office business in Ore
' gon for tbe nine months ending
with March li05.
The six U S land offices in
the State of Washington for tht
nine mouths refered to did e
business of 4659 entries and
filiDgs; tbe three offices in thf
. Columbia river basin, tbe regioi
that ill be benefited by Celih
canal, Walls Walla, Watervilh
and Spokane made 3,534 entries
and filings " or more than one
' third of the land office businest
done in tbe state.
The deduction from tbe abovt
statements, ia that if our peopl.
wish tc draw hometecken
here and. keep them the way i
to do something, as build inp
good roads, schools and f'actou

. They are about to haog a
lawyer in New. York. Who will
afterthis deny that the- world is
growing belter?
Cleanliness like charity be
gins at home. Keep yourjown
premises neat and your neigh
bor will profit by your example.
Don't be 'alarmed. The raiC
road has been 1 nilding down
Snake River from Huntington
for the past dozen or more years
the same time they have been
spending millions on the main
line between Huntington and
Umatilla.
