Proverbs 27: 1. OfEAV IvOf KS AT IOVEVIIJ.E Residents of the Inland E.nplre. cornpruin? wtrn and central Oregon, eutern and central Washington, Idaho and Montana, are practically un anlmoua In their demand that the plans of the Bonneville Dam in the Columbia River anall carry a provision tor lock permitting ocean-going rhlps to reach The Dalles, Urns reducing transportation cost of wheat and other product to the mark of Idaho. The Bonneville Dam, which la located at the bottleneck of these improvement, tiiould not be designed to prevent the free movement of ocean ve&ftels to the wheat, timber and mineral areas of this great region. We are building lor the next hundred years. The experience of Europe has demonstrated the value of Improved waterways, which afford the cheapest transportation systems yet devised. The Inland Empire maritime conference, hitherto active Jn Oregon. Wash ington and Idaho. Is planning to extend Its work Into Montana, Wyoming and Utah, Mining interest In these three states are highly in favor of extending ocean navigation as far up the Columbia Elver as possible. The time to Install ocean-going loefcs at Bonneville is the present. Wnat ever may be the reasons advanced by the Portland Chamber of Commerce and other Interests which oppose the Inclusion of ocean locks at the Bonne ville Dam at this time, the thought cannot be too firmly Implanted and too often reiterated that only by the development of the hinterland can Portland grow Ih population and the trade Importance which her natural location has ordained, The TImberman, March, lr34. I T0P1A rOKKVKtt! A contributor to The Bnokeaman-Revlew forum thinks that some inner voice is saying to mankind, "You are being brought Into a new era, an era In which wtint, misery and wretchedness shall have no part." "Inner voices" have been suggesting Utopias all through recorded history, and hope has risen and fallen times innumerable. The record of the old Oregon trail should be an enduring warning, at least to our western people. -Travel I Travel I Travel!" urged Dr. Marcus Whitman to the Immigra tion of 1843. "There are no dependable short cuts to Oregon. Tou would better be guided by the experience of the fur traders, missionaries and ex plorers. Don't be led off by mirages, but stick to the beaten trail and travel, travel, travel! The way is hard and the toll is great, but, men, If you want to take your women and children to the Willamette valley, you must stick to the beaten course." Nearly 1000 men, women and children In the immigration of 43 heeded that counsel and came through. Later Immigrant trains wrangled and divided. Those that stuck to the beaten trail came through; those that wandered off after mirages and -short cuts" perished, many of them, or suffered great distress. So it Is with the broader relations of this world. Bhort cuts are dangerous, alluring mirages lead to destruction, and Utopia land la still Utopia, MASONS PICK NEW OFFICERS; ELGIN MANIS APPOINTED ASTORIA, April 10 fJT, Carl W Evertsen, of Marsrifield, was elected : grand high priest of the Royal Arch ) Masons of Oregon here Monday at the annual meeting of the grand chapter.

To the editor: 1 have1 been requested (through , your paper and otherwise) to express j nrf opinion on the hunting season j for 1934 end aa there seems to be i no controversy over anything but deer and elk. I will confine myself to 1 that subject with the exception of our native blue grouse. This bird Is becoming scarce In this section and the bag limit should be silently re- ! duced", j I would favor a chango In the deer ; law lor one year permitting a sporta- l man to have a deer of either sex as the bucks have been hunted con- j tlnuously for years and we have too ; many barren doea. Owing to the j mild winter and good feed there will j be an enormous Increase In our wild j life this spring and 1 would favor an ; open season on elk. A ten-day or two weeJt separate season, say from Nov. , 1 to IS, or near that, as there is lit- i tie use lor the old bulls If they will i do tiny good, let them have tnein. I would not be in favor of any more j game refugea as we have plenty of ' wild game and I do not think. It fair ; to tho sportsman or to the man ad-! Joining such a refuge. I do not think , It Is fair to sell a man a license and restrict him either by closing the sea son or limiting his hunting area. Thlo Is the opinion of a man who has spent 20 years among your wild life, paid tnxtn on land for la years Infested with deer and elk, spent four tfears as a deputy game wardfn nnd have also beeu prosecuted for killing Micm.
