Down to the last Cwo bits and that went for breakfast? Did you ever experience that feel ing? .a Well, it is quite a feeling. Everybody should nt some time in life have it, for really there is not n condition in a man's career that will level him and .make him realize how small he is, so much, to lyiow you haven't a single cent and no work. For the last five years no one has been in that shape scarcely, but for the twenty years before that time most any fellow Was liable to go broke and be down and out for a lit tle while. . There Is no disgrace attached to being broke, but there' is a decided disgrace attached to staying broke. No man need be broke in this country .for twenty-four hours, lie can find something too do if he is made right. If he belongs to skilled mechanics and will work only at his trade he is in bad shape, but if he is a college professor by profession and. possesses the American itlea of doing what tyer come tip to do whether it be shoveling the load Of coal in' tho basement or' hoeing the garden for four bits, then he is all right.' '' v '"' ' ' " v ' ' ' Yes, to be broke is a good experience. V DR.

As the Portland Chamber of Com.rw J'. rnerce reoresenlative at Omaha said recently, other stales are !,,m t th " .Thanx, taking the settlers who should go to Oregon. The reason is J simple. Colorado for instance, sells irrigated land with no pay ment down and only exacts payment of interest for five years. That is competition In its keenest sense. Oregon must meet that competition in order that, her lands may be settled. It ' j.) the biggest slate question we have today, for this common wealth is not increasing In population.' Look at the last cen sus and compare t tvith that of ten years ago. Note the few people on 'larms -less farms in Union county now than tlioi e rfUB ten years ago. No new people are coming into Oregon and settling on her farm lands why? Because Colorado, Utah and Idaho are of fering better inducements. Oregon must wake up or ten years from now we will be even further behind the great procession than we nro at the present lime.
