SUBSCRIBE FOR NEW RAILWAY. . Not only are the citizens of this city Interested In the success of the at- . . . i , . . i. . n.i.it. lempr to muia m nuij wu way through Beaver Creekv but the citizens of leaver Creek are taking aa Interest. This la certainly a gratify ing outlook for the project. Not only does Oregon City need thla road, but the people of MoUJla, of Beaver Creek, and la fact the man and hla family on every farm that lies within two miles of the proposed route, with many other firms spread out fan-like In the country beyond MdaJla. It is true that the project means much for Oregon City, and its citizens cannot subscribe too liberally In an effort to make the work easy for the officers of the company; but the city is subscribing liberally and now the other sections to be benefitted should do their share. . And It is likely that the people along the way will do all they can. The sue cess at Beaver Creek is an Indication of this. But a word on the matter of coming to the front and doing what one can, without an undue wait: Thla will be greatly appreciated by the peo ple interested In the auccesa of the road. Have you subscribed your limit? If not don't wait to be urged but come and do it of your own free will. ROOSEVELT HEADED THIS WAY. Roosevelt still has the power to draw crowds and then to interest and entertain them when once gathered about him. And he rarely opens nls mouth to talk that be doesn't say something that some people are glad Gladstone Council will meet In ape cial session this Saturday evening. Chief among the matters to come be fore it will be the reports of its water works committee and Its street com mittee. ' . " The water works committee, com posed of Messrs. F. A. Burdon. F. 8. Baker and C. T. Howell, have held several meetings -and carefully can vassed the aituation. Report will be made this evening, it la expected, and will he about as follows: The drilling I in of wells In the fiat near the S. P. j railway bridjse. the walling of them up so as to keep out all surface water, the building in of filters so that the water from the Clackamas River may filter Into the wells through the chemi cals, of the filters, passing through by the force of gravity. . The building of a 500.0) gallwn reservoir on a high point of land back of Gladstone Park, giving the water a fall of 160 feet to the height of fire hvdranta on the atreets of tbV city This will give a 75 pound pressure at the spigots ob tb Brat 'floor In the city. Erection of pumping plant to pump this filtered water Into the reservoir, from where It will supply the people of Gladstone by the pressure of Its own weight. The construction of mains and laterals in thla connection The street committee, composed of Messrs. F. 8. Baker. G. 8. Williams and C. A. Baxter, will recommend the grading of Portland avenue. Dart moot and Clarendon streets, giving people the grade that they may build sidewalks and level off their lots per manently. Surveyors have been at work and the committee has its data well In hand and it la not thought there will be any hitch In the approval of the committee's report. Will Move to Woodburn. Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Jaeobson, who have made their home in Oregon City for the past year, will move to Wood burn, where the former will be day telegraph operator for the Southern Pacific Company. Mr. Jaeobson will leave on Saturday, but hla wife, who has been seriously ill since January, will not leave until her conditions will permit. She will be able to sit up within- a few days. Mr. Jaeobson has been night operator for the Southern Pacific Company In this c ty. PLATTING 0L0 HOME SITE RUSSIAN gossip has it that the Grand Ducboaa Olga, the oldest daughter of th csar of Russia, la expected to marry her father's coualn, the Grand Puke Dlmltri Paulovttch. The grand due be la a beautiful girl not yet quit alxteen years old. Her father believes In early mar riage, and be has given strong hiota of what be wlsbeut ao far the Grand Duk Dlmltri has not shown any treuiendoua admiration for his pretty kin woman. He is extremely wealthy, having inherited vast sums from th Grand Puke rVrgiua. who was assassinated In lWtt. leaving no children.

Poverty In Its Second Sense Mis eryMust Be Eliminated y FDWARD T. 0BVINE. Prfsor of olel Economy. Columbia University. fOR nearly fifteen years it has been my duty and my opportu nity to know something of the misery of the poor in New York, -and thi. MISERY IS NOT IN, ANY SENSE IN EVITABLE. Misery, as we say of tul-rcu!rH'w, ia COM MUNICABLE, CURABLE AND PREVENTABLE. There are more kinds of misery in New York than Milton ever dreamed of in his blindness. But the great fact is that this human, earthly goffering is at once ECONOMIC, ACCIDENTAL and NOT HOPELESS. I woold not overthrow the great social institution of property if I could. And no revolutionist could overthrow it if they would. Poverty aa I 'define it is NOT THE ABSENCE OF PROP ERTY. Temporary even if complete lack of wealth is merely an in centive to wholesome labor. To be poor in this tense, even to be penniless or in debt, may be of no disadvantage. But there ia another kind of poverty, which I have distinguished by calling it MISERY, which, while it implies lack of wealth, implies also other grave disadvantages. I HAVE NO EXPECTATION N0H EVEN DESIRE THAT POVERTY IN THE PIR9T SENSE WILL BE ABOLISHED, BUT I HAVE A VERY ARDENT DESIRE THAT MISERY, POVERTY IN THE SECOND SENSE, SHOULD BE ELIMINATED PROM OUR SOCIAL LIFE, AND I BELIEVE THAT IT CAN BE.
