MOLALLA.
The Russellville correspondent
gives ye scribe a pencil chase on the
"pioneer Indian trail" and catches
himself in his own trap. He limps
along In his criticism like unto one
wearing a "pinching shoe," and pre
sumes that we "advised the County
Court on good roads just because they
(Rusellvllle) were trying to Improve
the grade on Soda Hill" being wrong
in your presumption, likewise you are
wrong clear to the "foot of the hill."
Let Creation enlighten and be with
you In all good road Improvement, for
Heaven knows that the "Soda Hill"
will stand all the Improvement you
are mind to do thereabout. We were
not advising the County Court about
making an up-to-date road from Heav
en, or Russellville, to "Soda." but
were pointing out a common sense,
or "horsesensible," even grade, water
course, route from Molalla to Wilholt
not from Russellville or Scott's mills
but direct as could be, without
climbing hills to the right or the left.
Then my critic goes on and presup
poses that the even route to "Soda"
would be such a "taker" and so fasci
nating to travel on along the "foot of
the hills" that he might be compelled
to come clear down to Molalla In order
to reach "Soda," which Is situated 7
tree tops from his starting point.
Never even hinted that the dear peo
ple living Heavenward'be deprived of
their familiar slide with all the short
cuts they can make en route. Using
the elevated correspondent's argu
ment, we can Just as well say, that In
driving to Wtlhoit we do not want to
be forced to go via Table Rock.
As to my "travelling Indian trails
for thirty years" In the Molalla coun
try, my answer is amen; that is me.
And yea, further say, we know all the
tribes that Klatawa Skoakum Illlhe,
and venture the assertion that we
have figured shoulder to shoulder on
the Improvement of "Pioneer Indian
trails" much more than the Russell
ville correspondent probably will,
should the Good Lord permit him to
travel and work for 30 years longer.
The County Courts are. discontinuing,
Our Ships and Guns Superior to Any
Others In the World.
While the air Is full of charges that
the Navy Is not fit to take the long
voyage around the Horn Into Pacific
waters and we are told that our bat
tleships are unequal to a possible con
test with the Japanese vessels. It Is
gratifying to read In the eighteenth
annual Issue of Jane's "Fighting Ships
of 1907," Just published In England,
that "both In ships with high-power
guns or impervious to vital Injury at
long range the United States Meet Is
superior to any other navy In the
world."
This English authority does not dis
miss the American Naval force con
temptuously. On the contrary. It says
that our Navy Is "an extremely good
second" among the world's sea-fighting
arms. While our two American
Dreadnaughts are only contracted
for and it must be several years be
fore they are In commission, we have
a navy that is remarkable for effec
tiveness. In contrast with mere big
ness. On top of this reassuring news come
the tidings from Sandy Hook that the
United States possesses an explosive
far superior to the Japanese shlmose,
which did more than any thing else to
enable Japan to whip Russia. Since
then the secret of shlmose's composi
tion has become known to all the
great powers, and hence shlmose can
never again be the great factor It was
In the recent war. But nobody outside
of the Government knows what the
new American explosive Is. It Is
called dunnite, after its inventor,
Major Dunn, of the Army ordnance
corps, and is said to have such force
that heavy armor plate was shivered
into thousands of fragments by Its
terlfflc Impact.
