Th 3 story that ,North Powder is to
have an Armour packing plant la
pleasing to' bear. But from the his
tory of the Armour company It would
seem that the story is overdrawn. A

Is plenty of labor. Probably Armour
will 'reect a largeTfeeding station at
North Powder and that- will "be of
considerable benefit to this part of

Lack of Adequate Transit Caus of
Crowded and Dilapidated Houses.
. Lack of adequate transit and trans
portation facilities is one of the chief
causes of congestion, says G. A. Fonl
in the American City. . With no good
means of going to and from the heart
of the city people are forced to remain
In the near vicinity of their work,
and In this connection we use the
word "adequate" advisedly, for it is
perfectly possible for a subway to be
so placed that Its operation tends to
Increase rather than decrease conges
tion. , . '
Again, congestion often appears as
a result of the lack of adequate city
regulations with regard to open space,
sunlight, etc. These regulations would
differ In different communities, but
the smaller community must be care
ful not to adopt .standards for these
things such as bare been adopted by
the greatest cities, as this often tends
to incite builders In the smaller com
munities to aie the Intolerable condi
tions prevalent in the greater cities.
.Speculation in land, due to ithe de
sire of each individual to get te max
imum possible return on his holdings,'
this return often being out of jail pro
portion to anything that thj owner
himself has done to bring it about,
probably accounts more than anything
else for the worst phases of (Conges
tion. .. .
That congestion has a marked effect
on health no one can donbt Its tend
ency is to crowd tenements so closely
together that a good circulation of air
or the admission of sunlight Into liv
ing rooms becomes impossible. The
rooms are dark. The air in the nar
row slits of shafts and wells becomes
stagnant and foul There Is no incen
tive to self respect on the part of the
dwellers in these hovels. The shafts
become a receptacle for the constantly s
Increasing accumulation of garbage.
Tt Is nobody's business to see that it is
cleared ont .

Our best conjectures as to the
true spring of actions are very
uncertain. The actions them
selves are all we must pretend
to know from history. That Cae
sar was murdered by twenty
four conspirators I doubt not,
but 1 very much doubt whether
their love of liberty was the sole
causa. Chesterfield.
