The battle over the potential railroad wealth of south ern .Oregon centered in the Klamath Falls di.stiict is on. that, means much to the entire state, from a development standpoint. It is natural for the Southern Pacific to want to keep other roi ds out of this rich tenitoiy, and it is equally.'.desirable for the people of Klamath and Ilend to want the northern lines to extend southward, which they propose to do. Added transportation facilities always bi in?1 added prosperity to the territory seiTcd and that is the most important factor from a public view even though it means decieased profits for the rr.ii lines. Testimony heard in Portland by the commission indicate 'that oxto'i Five industrial development will lie umlei'tuken by largi lumber interests as soon as the northern outlet from K'am-l nth falls is assured. And it is industrial activity that1 Oregon needs. More industries mean more consuming pop ulation, which in turn will increase nearby markets I'm' Oregon food products. Every possible giowth in this direc tion should be encouraged. j ' MAKING LAW'S FOR OTIiKUS. The legislative sponsor of the Michigan law requiring the elapse of five days between the issuance of the mar riage license and the wedding ceremony has c'oprel "acinsi the border" where they issue the licen. e un. perform the ceremony hII in the same hour. Returning, he announced that he still believed "in ordinary circumstances a couple Khould wait five days .after applying for a license before being wedded, but ours was not an ordinary case." In other words, the Michigan legislator means Hint what is "good for the people" is not good for him and that the lawmaker shon'd be immune from the lavs ho enacts. There is not a couple in the who'c state of Michi gan which if suddenly inspired with the desite to get mar ried would not contend, as did Representative D.uin. that theirs was not an ordinary case. And Representative Darin and his bride arc not the first to evade this niau iage pi li bation statute. TjfHr.lpTv.'s v.ho evade or violate law of their own tna'i in?
