The story is good reading, not only for loyal Missourians, but for patriotio Amer icans generally. It 1b u tale of energy and growth and development of re sourcos of which the country may well be proud. Our .Democratic friends claim that the cost of living bus grotm; with the increase of wages under a protective policy. That may be true; but other tbings have grown, for instance the savings bank deposits made mostly by the wage earning class. Under the Democratic "low cost of living' poilcy, from 1893 to 1894, the deposits in the savings banks of the United .States dwindled from 81,785,150,9!)7 to $1,747,901,80. From 1897,' when the Republican party took the'reigus of power, to 1898, the deposits had increased from 81,939,376,035 to 82, 065,631,298. Now, in 1904 these de posits stand at 8,935,04,845, as against 81,747,901,280 ten years ago. A bil lion and a quarter reasons, each oue of thegold standard .value, why the people ox .too .united states should keep the Republican party at the head of the government. The Movement Toward Honesty. William Allen White analyzes some of the opposition to the re-election of President Roosevelt in an article on the Postal Frauds in the September McClu-re's. Roosevelt's "unreason- ableuess" in dealing with crimes against the state, his prosecution of thieves and law-breakers, has organ ized against him dishonest forces in high circlee and iu low circles. The appearance of one honest man in a group of thieves produces the instant crystallization! of the group. Mr. White Dads a homely and prac tical meaning in Roosevelt's action the postofftee business, namely, that when a trVief steals from- the Ameruran government, if there is a law to punish him bo must propare for trial, and if gnilty go to jail. That is why Roosevelt is regarded as an unsafe man in certain business circles, where busim-s methods and l.. v.;i ikh "i-l... movement is- toward enmaion,, old- faehlosied' hffivesty seolfl to be geui oral movometi.ti Zt soems-ta foe spring- from the- iimple, audi to be mak- iiig. itself, niimitwat IhTOngJr men like Koosevelt until Bt-utovv nort Folk and J Jcromo -imhI tfew CrhiniHo (CiTowd1,. head mtm, , 1 by "l.HUy'"' Kent, ami hundreds of u,t,Mt'11' Known 10 one people o ove,'-v community ; thie mc-vement 18 "'K l"u' I""'' "'' to to its ends wiui iiiui-u pi.ioinai sKin;.uuqi also 11,0 "loveinent tsward polittealtlettertcy ls "' strong o, the gret. newstiapeis - and. ntAgayJues. of the country.

The TOGGERY, Medford, A. C. Howlett Travels. OREGON CITY, Aug. 13, 1904. EDITOR MAIL: When 1 last wrote to you I was at Coburg, and I have gone as far as this place, but will resume my writ ing where I left off, I believe I wrote up as far as Round Prairie and hero is the beginning of the heart of tbe Umpqua valley. , While the valley ie beautiful to be-1 hold, still It presented an antequated appearance. You and your readers have read and sung of "The xnoaBj covered bucket that hung in the well,1 well, it is not the bucket that is moss covered, but one would think that the inhabitants of the valley were moss covered for everything else la that you see, especially in the Hue of fences and buildings, the same old homes and bufruB with only an oc casional new oive, the same old rafl worm fences that stood there thirty- four years ago. The land ia held in large- tracts by the old settlers, who are waiting for th prioe of land to come' np. We reached Koseburg about ten o'clock fm the morning "of the SiKth. The city has grown some since my last visit to that pEace, but not so much as we would naturally suppose. Leaving Roseburg we passed through Oakland,, a beautiful little town, situated on the Southern Pa cific railroad, near tbo old town by tbe same name. ' All along, the way from Drain to the Cost Fork, that s branch of tbe Willamette river, f large saw mifls are scattered and an : immense amount of lumber is-sewed ' out and shipped to diUereut parts of the country, giving employment toj a- great many mmi. About four o'clock p. m. we reached Eugene City,, funrj days from home,' having traveled a distance of one hundred and seventy eight miles. We found Kugeue to be a beautiful phrce, as the most of your renders know. It is there that the State University is sitnatod and1 in addition to tht they have a Divinity School aud public schools; etc. Stop ping over at Coburg. a lumber town, where one of the Booth-Kelly saw mills is situated, with Thomas Van Dyke. It was there I found, among ' the- first things I saw, a copy of The Medford .Mail. I always spoke a good word for Jackson county; There seemed to be n prevailing idea that Jackson county was simply a rough, mountainous region, where mining was the principal industrv. but when I told of the hundreds off acres of orchards that were bearing thousands of dollars worth of fruit or all kinds, and especially apples, they seemed to be surprised: What our country needs Is live men to advertise it that can and will talk and tell' facta not fiction, for that injures any country.
