Entered at .the postotlice at Oregon City, Oregon, as second-class matter. A LARGER FOREST RESERVE. Petitions are being put in circulation at various points in Western and Southern Oregon asking the President to revoke certain orders creating forest res ervations and that no others be made. Our citizens will do well to pass these petitions by without signing them. Aside from good grounds of public policy which dictated the forest reservation system, it has plainly been necessary to interpose this power of the President to withdraw lands from entry in order to gave any of the public domain, or that part of it car rying timber and mineral from being wholly appro priated by a limited class through fraud and false swearing. There are many tracts already so appro priated that are capable of agriculture and would sustain a family, if homesteaded in a legitimate way. The miners and prospectors, who are permitted to op erate within the forest reserves, have suffered outrage ous injustice in many instances through the fraudu lent manipulation and alienation of timber claims. The interests of the mass of the people will be sub served by withholding as much of the public domain rivoto ontrv aa nrarticable. except where the 7 A lW - J- ' land is sought by an honest homesteader, who will conform to the law. Ashland lriDune. MUST SPEAK ENGLISH. An Albany judge, Clifford P. Gregory, has rejected a large number of applications for naturalization pa ners on erounds indicated by himself as follows: "I will not naturalize any person who comes be fnrfi me and is uable to speak the English language sufficiently to make himself understood. I will com pel them to answer questions regarding their age. nlace of nativitv. when they arrived in the United X ' States, and other questions which I deem essential to good citizenship, and if they fail to make satislactory answers I will refuse to grant them the necessary pa pers. When a man has been in this country five vears and is unable to talk our language, in my opin ion he is not fit to be admitted to citizenship, and I will act accordingly.' An unique contest, recently conducted by tho Raker City Herald, has been decided, A cash pri.o was of feror! for tho best definition of a kiss. Mrs. M. W. IVnham, of Walla Walla, Washington, received the prize. Her definition was: "A kiss is a demonstra tion bv which our most sacred feelings, also feelings of a less heaven'y nature, are expressed " Moro than five thousand definitions were submitted. KOU KXIUIUT OK MVK M'OI K. j . CANDIDATES FOR THE VICE-PRESIDENCY. That the contest for the vice-presidential nomina tion in the next nftional Republican convention is likely to develop considerable public interest is again affirmed by the action of the :ebraeka state conven tinn. Nebraska has brought forward a favorite son for the vice-presidency in the person of John L. Webster, of Omaha. For the infoimation of those who have never heard of Webster it t-hould be said that iie is a pros perous lawyer, has been in the Nebraska state legisla ture, was president of the constitutional convention, and has been more or less identified with local politi- al campaigns. Mr. Webster has been "mentioned tor many offices, including that of United States senator, and hence the mention of his name for the vice-presidency will not be a new experience for him. The bringing out of Webster by the Nebraska con vention merely strengthens the belief that there will be at least forty-five candidates for the vice-presidency by the time the national Republican convention meets. Every state will have a "favorite son" to present. Some of them, as a result of factional fights, will doubtless have two or three "favorite sons." And this does not mean that other ambitious states men will not be "mentioned" for vice-presidential honors. Before each state agrees upon a favorite son an opportunity to get in the "favorable mention" class will be offered to mayor of cities, chairman of county central committees, state legislators and constables. Men who have served the party faithfully and have carried water to the party elephant in sunshine and in shower are entitled to this honorable distinction. No favoritism should be shown. The vice-presidency is something every man may aspire to. The indications are that the next Republican na tional convention will not be such dull and unin teresting event after all. Veky general is the hope that the unseasonable weather of the last week will terminate and more favorable conditions'prevail to the end that hops and other crops may not suffer extensive damage. Rain for two weeks more would work a great hardship on -both producers and laborers. As an instance of the good wages that prevail for labor of all kinds in the Willamette valley this fall, may bo cited the charge that is being made and col lected for tho storing away of cord wood, i ifty cents a cord is being paid for this work. An average work man can store away a cord an hour winch for a day of ten hours means per day. Complaint is made that laborers of all kind were never as seareo as they are this vear. An Oregon City business man has been advertising for several weeks for men to haul -100 cords of wood and has been unable to find tho neces sary help. v The experiment of Joseph Pulitzer, the New York editor- millionaire, in establishing a school of journal ism for the production of newspajK-r writers, will Ihj watched with interest. Success in tho newspaper field, as well as anv other field of labor, dejH-n.ls largely on the amount of native talent and adaptability to the work that is possessed by the ambitious writer. Unlimited training in a school of journalism will not make a successful newspaper man, where there is not in the r.ntiirftl fondness for the work. However. Mr. Pulitzer may be able to improve tho quality of the work of many reporters who aro laboring under the mistaken idea that they are newspaper men. If he does this he will have rendered the general public an appreciable service. Ok all liars, that Jotephine county man should have the medal. He claims that s hr tree on tm timber claim has a petrified top, while the lower part of the tree is alive and green. Eugene tiuard. I hat a noth ing. An instance was this week reported in Clacka amas county of a tree that burned for eleven consec utive months before it fell to the ground. Oregon City Enterprise. Pshaw, you fellows know nothing about timber. Come over to Central Oregon and we will show you thousands of acres of sage brush that our dear Hitchcock has placed in a reserve that in a half dozen years will grow into trees that will produce dia monds on every twig. Our sage 1 rush is wonderfully productive, and under the stimulating effects or Hitch cock will become marvelous. Prineville Review. . ' Sai.km, Eugene and other uj-valey towns are in volved in a controversy as to the purity of the domes tic water supp y. To the alleged impurity of the water supply is attributed by some the main cause for the prevalence in those cities of many cases of ty phoid fever. Herein Oregon City it is different. Typhoid fever and other epidemics, directly or indi rectly contributed to by impure water, are practically an unknown quantity. Oregon City owns its own wafer plant and its capable board of water commis sioners has at heart the best possible service for all consumers rather than the sacrifice of that service to the end that a substantial dividend may be regularly apportioned to the interested stockholders as is some times the case when this publio utility is owned and controlled by individuals. Another instance of the harmful effects of the five cent yellow-backed sensational novels is reported from Lane county, where a young man of twenty years has been committed to the state insane asylum. As a consequence of the extensive reading of this sort of publications, the lad imagines he is a detectivo. The publication and circulation of these worthless pamphlets sfTould be prohibited by strict legislative acts. These cheap novels do more towards producing young criminals and good-for-nothing citizens in a community than do a combination of other pernicious habits. Educate the boy to read substantial maga zines and periodicals with which every book store is bountifully supplied and the problem of providing accommodations for the incorrigible of the state will be of easy solution. . Ionoha.ste of Oregon to a surprising degree is dis closed in a letter received Monday by Register Dresser, of the Oregon City Land Office, from a prospective settler now residing in Missouri. After asking that he be furnished a plat of all government lands in 'the state and making other inquiry as to land values in this state, the author of the communication inquires if the entire state is irrigated. This query is supple mented by an equally ridiculous one in that the Mis sourian wishes to know if there are,, any homesteads located near Portland that are still open to settlement. Register Dresser thinks the contents of the letter are sufficient evidence of the need for some missionary work in the East by which the population may be in formed as to Oregon as it is. A six months' residence in Oregon during the winter months would suffice to show the inquisitive Missourian that irrigation is not essential to the growing of crops in this state.
