TUESDAY, NOVEMBER .1, 1905 MOUTH OF TrtE COLUMBIA The people of Oregon, are very much worried-lest the coming congress will not make a liberal appropriation to continue the operations that the United States has been carrying "on to deepen the channel through the bar that stretches across the mouth of the Columbia river, and the river channel from there to Portland so that ocean going ships of the largest size, can enter the river and pass up to Portland and return with safety. The United States has already expended " -tit:- H rtwm .v.:. project, but it is estimated that it will take several millions more to complete the job. , Two very ugly facts confront our peop'e in this dilemma. The most potential one is the fact that recently our national expenditures have exceeded the recei pts. and there is a growing defict in the U. S treasury. The minor fact that, though a very unpleasant one for Oregonians to contemplate, is, that practically, Oregon has but one representative in congress. It is thought, or at least claimed, by some that if we had a full delegation in congress, by their united efforts, they would stand much better chance to induce congress to economize somewhere else than in Oregon to stop, the growing deficit This may be true, but even a full delega tion under existing conditions. would" have to answer, in all probability, some very pointed questions; put by economically inclined congressmen. ' Suppose some statistically inclined member should call attention to the very liberal appropriation of public land to Oregon for schools, colleges, and wagon roads and then ask our members. "What have you done with all these millions of acres of land? What have you to show for the munificent donations the U. S. has heretofore made to Oregon? - . And while our representatives were scratching their heads for an answer, the inquisitant figurer would come again with the assertion, backed by a dismal array of figures and say. "1 find that a dollar appropriated to do anything for the betterment of Oregon accomplishes less than almost anywhere else. It is like pouring water down a rat hole to make appropriations for 'Oregon. Your people are too liberal spenders of Uncle Sam's money." ' New York, the d.str.ct attorney who has been laboring to clean up that city seems to be a winner and Pa'rtrige o7 San Francisco gives hopes of overcoming Schmitz, that king of grafters. Riht will prevail. The people of the United States are having a taste of clean govern ment and and will in the future demand clean government in every locality.

Min -18 i '".t DAVIS 1 J H CHll.liM Htcaad Tm Perhaps the reasons for the low grades received by the students in the public schools at the tests a few days ago, are that at a certain age almost every boy. and some girls, conceive the idea that they are in possession of sufficient learn ing to guide them through the narrow pathways of life. Fathers, mother's and teachers-learning pales before that poss essed by the average boy of from IS and up a few years. That is the reason why the world w so filled with, failures. It is a lamentable fact that a boy seldom realizes the great necessity' of education until he has lea school and' enters the different walks of life. Then he can look back over his boyhood days, realize the great amount of wasted time in school- How much easier life would be if he had utilized his time in study instead of flipping paper wads and idling his time in looking out of the window. Some pro vision should have been made to enable the young student to look ahead into bis coming tfe and enable him to realize the advantage of making the best of , his opportunities. Today is election day m almost every city of any consequence m the United States. The question at stake in almost every one is whether or not graft shall BLUE MOUNTAIN MARBLE AND GRANITE CO.
