toksaox's vtroRTiwirr. In last week's issue of tlio NVf Siik Commissioner NVilklna urge; opon the people of Ore gon the im 'portauee of having tlie resource or the country fully represented at the Columbian Exposit ion iu Wl This is unquestionably Oregon's opportunity of ninkinR known to the world the extent and variety of her rich endowment in mineral wealth, timber, cereals, vegetable, fruits, etc Aud as all legislation is simply an embodiment of col leetive public opinion, it therefore behooves the people of this state to urge upon their representatives in the next legislative assembly to ' provide sufficient funds for a thorough exhibit of Oregon's nl- . most matchless resources at the Chicago Exposition. Under exist ing circumstances the law making body of this state cannot afi'ord to be either dilatory or parsimonious in providing ample means for ad vertising the fertility of resources of our vast area of rich but compar atively undeveloped territory There is no real danger of the leg islature needlessly expending the public funds, although the cry of "wolf is heard from certain quar ters, for the average legislator is constitutionally conservative in his financial notions and business methods, besides, all of our legis lative precedents, in regard to ap propriations, have leen along lint of strict public economy. A few radicals may advocate a large ex penditure of money for the pur pose indicated, but no man of con servative views is going tolly into the face of well established pre cedents. We do not presume to designate the amount of money to be appropriated, only that the sum Bhonld be amply adequate for the purposes intended. The rock ahead iu the future de velopment of this country is a semi-acquiesceut"let-wellenoughaIoiu)" policy, which has a large following among the average mediocrity of well-a do people, and the heaviest pressure against legislative approp rUtion for the World's Fair exhibit will naturally come (nun this very quarter. Self satisfied with their own superficial and somewhat re Btricted views of life, and tinappre ciative of the social aud intellee tual tendencies of the age, these jwr sons bold tenaciously to the estab lished order of things; all their ideas and habits becoming solidi fied into the ' hard cake of cus torn," while they themselves. although ceasing to be progressive, at the same time, are honorable and capable citizens. While we have no disposition to flippantly antagonize the piutieu lar opinions of any individual much less to arouse the censure of a large aggregation of people, but, at the same time, we have certain very positive convictions iu regard to the necessity of pushing Oregon to the front, aud, with all due eoiir tesy, we propose civiiiz a few of our reasons for the faith that is us. A multitude of eirtiu instances have conspired to keep Oregou li the background of progress while onr Bister states of California ami Washington have forged ahead at a rapid rate. Of course the great transcontinental railroad lines now centering on the Puget sound have much to do in filling up that conn try with both wealth and popula tion, but, then, there is another leading factor in the problem the pluck and enterprise of the pco pie themselves. They not only have faith in their country, but have the courago to advertise it as well. The people of Washington are not afraid to expend money letting "the world and all the rest of mankind" know where they are and what they are there for. They preach from their very house tops all about the resources of the coun try, and as a natural result the world is not only becoming interes ted in what they have to say, but Washington is fast taking rank as the brightest star in the North western constellation of states. A similar spirit of enterprise on the part of the people of Oregon would add four fold to the wealth and population of the state within the next decade. Oregon is a better country than Washington, it has a richer and more diversified soil, a far more beautiful landscape a more congenial climate. We only need the influx of population and cap! tal to enable us to become one of the most prosperous common wealths in the United States. A little judicious legislation by our representatives at the state capilol next winter will bo a step towards placing Oregon well up to the fore front again. FEW ' REASONS FOR OH A T ULA TION. CON It is quite obvious to the most casual observer that Independence is on the high-road to prosperity. We have, at last, torn from the pages of our history the seared and yellow leaf of isolation. Jfapid transit with the outside world is attracting hither men of means and energy; it is, also, inspiring our own people with nenewed pluck and life. Already the procession has W-guu to move" forward, the baud to play, and the people are learning to to keep step with the I'llek music of the modern world. Thirty years Is long time lu the history of an individual, but it not a very long period of time In the history of a tow u. ome towns live thirty years and then die; others exist thirty yearn and then spring Into fullness and beauty ol life. . The cycle of Independence' history may cover a period ot thirty years or more, but she Is to day a livetowu and her future h full of promise. She is fullj abreast with the progressive spirit of the age; has splendid schools, numerous religious edi ticca, sub stantial business houses, first elii manufacturing Interests, eleganl rvwidencea, etc. The surronndiiui country tributary to the city com prises some of the finest agrleul tiiial lands in the state. Iminl gratlou Is rapidly pouring into the county, and .the old donation land claims are lieiug divided Into small farms adapted to the wants of a populous commonwealth. With a gejiial and healthful climate, n magnificent area of fertile soil, and numerous other natural resources, Polk comity is destined in the ucai future to Income one of the wealth iest sections of Oregon. vvflumt riis new lawk. A great majority of the Oregon press is In. favor of the publication of all new laws at the time of their enactment. We consider this n judicious idea, for the people should know something alsmt the statutory laws under which they live. It is "not uiiftc-iuently the case that long and expensive liti gations are the result of ignorance of state laws. People do nt, as s rule, bring suit at law simply through sheer piglicatluess ami a disposition for combat! veneHS. The great majority of men mean well, and are actuated in their busi lies dealings by n nice sense of honor, and it is only when they consider their commercial rights Infringed upon that they resort to an appeal at law. The temple of Themis Is not always an impartial court, the scales of the so hilled blind goddess do not always balance towards the side of justice, the innocent often suffer, and wrong only too fre mieutlv walks boldly out of the court room into the broid light of day. The majority of people realize the fact that courts of Justice do not always adjust wrongs, and tley are somewhat disposed to look ask ance at a sleek attorney when he blandly assures them, '"It is a safe case, sir." Hut tieiug uninformed as to the real status of the law, they urc pcrsundtHl to rush into the legal vortex, and, of course, they usually come out in a very tattered aud beggarly condition. A little knowledge of statutory law would save many an individual a good di al of wholesome experience, us well as snug little pile of uir.li. Our estwiiusl contemporary, the Miuiuiouth IrmwTutt assumes that we are "straddling the political fence," While we do not admire the euphony of the phrase by which our neighbor designates our politic ul position, we art, at the same time, fnni to confess that the Nkws is non-partisan iu politics. How ever, aside from its editorial management, this journal is au open court for the discussion of any question of public interest, political or otherwise. The Went Shore is making a bit ter fight on our World's Fair com missioners, Messrs. Wilkins and Klippel. While that journal's caricatures are really laughable to 'lookers on in Vienna," yet there is a certain kind of refined brutal ism in thus masquerading the good name of individuals before an mi discriminating but fun loving pub lie.
