Oreron. under the Act at March J. lffll Street Improvement Opposition to the request of property owners on Oak street to have it improved is not in line with the progressive spirit that characterizes most Hood River citizens. The petition asking for the improvement has been signed by a large majority of the property owners in fact, with the exception of three. For this reason it should not be opposed, and for the further reason that it has become a necessity that is working an injury to the city in a business way. The argument that the im provement should be delayed un til the water pipes and electric and telephone lines are under ground can not be taken as suffi cient grounds for putting off the work. It may be several years before the work of laying the new water pipes and putting the wires underground can be ac complished, while the benefit of the improvement which would ac crue during that time would far outweigh the added expense of taking up the pavement Some slight objection is being raised by those owning property on other streets, that they would be favorable if other business streets are included, is not ex actly the right attitude to take, as we see it. If the property holders on other streets want them paved they should take the initiative and secure a petition from the taxpayers affected, ask ing the city to have the streets in question paved. Under the most favorable conditions, it will take several months to perfect the details for improving Oak street in order that the work can be done in the near future, and the city council will have the support of those who are directly interested if they take favorable action on the matter. Oregon Development Notes Klamath Falls will have the first Postal Savings Bank in Ore gon. The government n pre paring to establish such an insti tution there, and if this sort of a bank is popular, other Oregon cities will have them. Baker is the first city in Ore gon to adopt the commission plan of government It is working successfully and it is likely other communities in this state will fol low the lead of the Eastern Ore gon capital in revising the pres ent methods of administering affairs. The Mazamas, the mountain climbing club of Portland, will probably make the ascent of Glacier Peak in the Chelan Lake region next summer. The club has about fixed upon Glacier Peak as the objectivo point of the next climb, it being the cns tom to scale a different moun tain each year. Glacier Peak lies in the midst of magnificent mountain scenery and is about 10.000 feet high. That Oregon will have a popu lation of 1.200,000 when the next census rolls around is the predic tion of R B. Miller, traffic man ager of the Harriman lines in the Northwest He bases his figures on the constant western trend of population as disclosed by former census statistic. He estimates that the United States will have a population of 113, 000,000. This additional popula tion, he believes, will pour west ward to find an outlet in the vacant agricultural lands of the coaat states. Nowhere is there a Sweater area of unclaimed land than in Oregon and the migration will cover this area as it seeks naw territory to occupy. The Oregon National Guard Association will meet at Albany January 4 and 5 in the new ar mory recently completed there. Business coming before the state organization will be transacted and a large attendance of O. N. G. officers is expected. Albany people will provide the visitors with special features and enter tainment Eugene celebrated the conclu sion recently of a whirlwind cam paign for new members of the Commercial Club that brought 150 additional persons into the fold. A banquet marked the close of the contest and the club will enter upon the new year with a good deal of enthusiasm. Among the big plans now being considered is the erection of a Commercial Club building for permanent headquarters. The Siuslaw river is due for further improvement, and army engineers are preparing plans for a north jetty at the mouth of that stream. Bids will soon be asked for its construction. The south jetty at the mouth of the Siuslaw is already under con struction and the breakwater at the north side of the river's mouth will be built by govern ment appropriations, together with funds raised by the port. jToRfHWEsfNOTEs"!

T'LL not leave thee, thou lone one, To pine on tha stem. Since the lovely are sleeping, Go sleep thou with them. Thus kindly 1 scatter Thy leaves o'er the bed Where thy mates of the garden Lie scentless and dead. C0 soon may I follow When friendships decay And from love's shining circle The gema drop away. When true hearts lie withered And fond ones are flown. Oh, who would Inhabit This bleak world alone? Thomas Moore. w HAUNTING8.

I'll attend If you'll Impeach ma Of my sins or even preach me Sermons hard to understand, But if you have naught to teach me, Dear, your meaning I demand! IF you wish ma, love, to leave you Why forever walk my way? Then, when gladly 1 receive you, Wherefore do I seem to grieve you? Must I then, In truth, believe you Wish me. darling, far away?
