Oregon, with nearly 100,000 square miles of territory, can support a population more than twenty times as large as that- which now lives within the state lines. As this population increases, more care ful methods of tilling; the soil,. and conserving our national re sources, will add to the general prosperity of all of our people. The new settlers which a the railroads are brinerine: ito the newer portions of the state must be provided with transpor tation facilities or the railroads will reap no benefits of conse quence by bringing them here at low rates. For this reason the new arrivals will serve to hasten the much needed extensions of our railroad systems.

SIXTY THOUSAND SETTLERS All the Northwest railroads .ire entitled to the credit for the wonderful publicity cam paign that has resulted in bring ing into the Pacific Northwest in the past two montns more than 60,000 new settlers. ' No such movement in so brief a period has ever before been known, and it cannot fail to prove highly beneficial' to the entire territory by the new comers. -''.' All classes seem to have been well represented in the move ment. The Willamette Valley and the older settled farming districts of Eastern Oregon and "Washington have attracted large numbers of wealthy farmers -who were in quest of a "fin ished", farm or orchard already in condition for making imme diate returns on the investment, and in Cenlral Oregon and over in the coast regions, where rail facilities are as yet missing, a younger, hardier class has set tled and is hewing farms and orchards out of the unbroken prairies or forest.

C has allowed the state's claim a gainst the United States for Indian War Veterans' bounty and has sent in the claim Congress with the recommenda tion that an appropriation be made to cover the amount. It is believed that the special session of Congress "will enact a deficiency appropriation bill during the present session, in which event Oregon's money will be forthcoming pretty soon. The total amount of the claim allowed is $193,534, and is based upon the Goverment's offer of $150 for every man that would volunteer to serve during the Ciyil War. Oregon mustered " in one regiment, First Volunteer Infantry, which, although its services was not called upon to engage in the East, did service in the Indian outbreak in this, state which the Goverment recognized as equiv alent to service in rebellion Acting upon the good faith to the United States Government, the Oregon Legislature author ized the issuance of 2760 bonds, in favor of the veterans entitled to the Goverment boun ty ot in io4, at tne par value of $50 each, bearing in terest at 7 per cent per anuumi The state redeemed these bonds, the principal amounting to $129,041, the interest ..$63,868, ecpenseof advertising for re demption of bonds before maturity, printing, etc., $644, tlie total $iyd,od4, wnicn was .allowed by the Court of Cairns.
