I'lihlifhetl Every Thursday at the Journal Building, frioey ill, Oregon THURSDAY, AUGUST a 4 , 1905 Competition always has been and probably always will be, in the majority of caws, the life of trade. IxKal evidence of this is shown in the O. R. Jfc X. company's reduction of freight rates to com jvte with the state's portage rail road. While the latter road aa yet ha? demonstrated only a small amount of usefulness, the ad vantage which it will yield to the upper country of the Columbia will le better shown later on when river boats have begun to ply above the obstruction in the rirer at The Dalles. The O. R. N. will then be compelled to lower its present exhorbitant rates, the Wnefit accruing to the producers from the soil-the life and backbone of anv community. It required ST cars to bring the i Karnum and Bailey circus to Portland. There are '2t seperate tents on the grounds. There are 1,150 people with the show. There are three rings and two stages and an ocean of "aerial stuff." There are 100,0O0 square yards of canvas in the various tents. There are 19 nationalties represented among the performers. There ore 690 horses in the stables and St grooms. Everybody connected with the show has his own dishes in the big dining tent and they are carefully marked. The range which cooks the meals has 31 holes. There are VI cooks and 40 dishwashers. A blacksmith shop larger than any in this city is kept working all the time. There are only five giraffes in captivity and Barnum & PaUey have four of them, purchased at a cost of f 6S,000 and valued at twice that sum. There is no parade because the show couldn t be put up in time for an afternoon per formance if the old fashion was in vogue. Consequently the live stock is not overworked and every animal is sleek and clean. It is beyond comprehension of the average mind, in fact, how a show of such magnitude can "chase around" the country, moving once in 24 hours. a primary election 45 days before the general election. The next primaries in this state will be held in April of HKX. The cam paign will begin much earlier, for the candidates will have to make themselves solid with the people many days before the primaries. Hence it is not at all unlikely that there will be campaigners among the people as early as February while in March the woods will be full of them. In the good old days when the conventions did thei work there was nothing to do other than to elect delegates. The candidates were still in the back ground. The conventions were held about a month before the day of election, and the actual cam- ; paign on the part of the candidates did not begin until after .the nominations had been made by the conventions. But now these days are of yore and the candidate who hopes to be the nominee of his party by the vote at the pri maries must sally forth upon the highways and byways early in the game. Yea, before the last" of winter's sable train has melted iuto the viewless uir. There will be fences to build, signatures to tt; support to rustle from the great plains of voters. Indeed, he will be a Imsv man, and if he is successful at the primaries he must do it all over again and con vince the populace that the nomi nees of the opposite political pri maries are inferior to him. Where fore must he battle for office from the break of the cold, bleak months until the torrid rays of advancing summer slaut across his fevered brow. Roseburg Plaindealer. By Rcll nrrBngctnrnU with tht publishers, Tho Journal offers to tiew Mitacrilwr or tliot who jsij ui ri 1 1 r, n , cm e iu i ij'i it'll to both the Town and Country Jour nal and the American Farmer, all three for f 1.50. Both of the latter are live, progressive magaiines, full of good reading matter, and each issue is replete with interest ing articles on a variety of sub jects. This offer U limited for only a short time. Grain growers in Sherman and Gilliam counties are soon to teci the advantage of the states port age road. They will ship this year's production of wheat by that route, if it is available, and thus save a considerable sum in freight alone. The one objection to this method of reaching a mar ket is the difficulty encountered in reaching the terminus on the river at the Big Eddy by the steamboat. MARRIED. At the residence of R. Me Farland in this city Wednesday evening, August 2:J, Miss Annie Wilburn to Mr. Chaa. Shephard, Justice of the Peace, J. L. Luckey performed the ceremony. The Salem Statesman voices the general sentiment of the Oregon press when it says: 'Our help is in ourselves. If we have the right proposition for a railway, why wait for Mr. Harriman? There is no community in Oregon that can support a railway today that is not able to build it with its own capital. Once the com munity shows its confidence in the proposition, lots of Harrimans all over the country stand ready to come in and take up the work. "Let a community start con struction on a road and see how deeply it will interest not only Mr. Harriman, but other capitalists looking for investment. That they look, also, for just that sort of commenities in which to in vest, is well known. They know that if a community will go ahead and build a railroad, it will go ahead and build itself, thus mak ing the railroad to it a valuable property. This is the thing for Oregon communities needing transportation facilities to take up, and to look at. Help your selves, and the Harrimans can't avoid helping you." These re marks point out the only way, or at least the only sure and speedy way, by which to get needed rail roads built. The Harrimans are like the IiOrd in one respect: They help states and regions that help themselves. They will Cuild fast enough if they see the people moving earnestly to do so and determined at the same time to hold them to the responsibility which they should assume. Journal.
