The popula tion ol Oregon Is small compared to that of other states, and the Burlington is doing all in its power to encourage emigration, and further interests of Ore gon and the Pacific northwest. A large majority of those who come west are seeking business locations, farming and timber lands, or anything for a livlihood, and there are excellent opportunities right here in tbe Willamette valley.

A traveling man, and eye witness, gave us tbe facts. As the train pulled out of Dallas one after noon recently, there was on board a big fat colored mammy with a pickaninny kid about a year old that was about as obstreperous and contrary as any brat could be. Tbe mother coaxed and coaxed and threatened It without suc cess. Finally she opened the front of her dress and exposed her bosom, and produced a "dinner" of generous propor tions, but tbe little brat still continued to squall and lefuaed to be tempted into quietude; then she resorted to strategy, "You bettab tak hoi' o' dat dinnah chile, or I'll gib it to the conductah." Tbe traveling men In the car let out a shout, while Conductor Cressy said he Just had dinner, "dam a rabbit," and in extra stern voice demanded tickets.
