R. A. Booth Draws Picture of

VAST WEALTH POINTED OUT
Varied Resources Declared Capable
of Sustaining 1 00,000,000 ' Pop
i illation on Pacific Slope,
'fating European Basis.
EUGENK, Or.. April 18. (Special.)
Speaking to the Bubject, "The Future of
the Pacific Coast," before the Round
Table Club of this city last Tuesday, H.
A. Booth, Republican candidate for
United States Senator, delivered an ad
dress notable for the great deal of con
crete information it contained- Mr.
Booth took advantage of the opportu
nity to outline the policies which, in
his opinion, the people of the Pacific
Slope must follew if they are to attain
the maximum of development. He
said in part:
The newer conditions that will obtain
upon completion and use ot the Panama
Canal will draw more of our Eastern
kindred to the Coast, but in a large way
w must look to European countries for
the great increase. Our laws admit immi
grants from all Europeon nations. From
them we will receive in great numbers la
borers and agriculturists. Our ultimate
population must depend upon the number
who may be able to supply their needs
from soil production, fisheries, manufactur
ing for domestic and foreign use, and such
other additional people as are usual and
needful in promoting and maintaining the
best things of highly civilized and cultnred
people.
Computing population on the basis of the
density of Europe would mean 100.000,000
for the Coast,' or using Italy. 300.000.000;
British Isles. 470,000.000; England, 605,
0O0.000; Belgium. Sl. 000.000.
"We can care best for and be most profit
ed by intelligent, industrious, rural pro
ducers. Following them should come the
city growth as industrial opportunity war
rants. When the best conditions obtain but
few acres comparatively will be required
for the support of a family.
Along an Oregon river, ordinarily consid
ered insignificant, partly because it lies
wholly west of the Coast Range and just
coming to be known, are 600 dairy cows of
Indifferent breeding, feeding on 80 acres of
pasture devoted mostly to native grasses and
subsisting almost wholly from the produce
of the area stated, yet producing annually
an average of more than $75 each from the
ale of milk. Along this same stream, ac
cording to the statement of an intelligent
and reliable resident, there are 14,000 acres
susceptible of equal production, when
cleared. The receipts from 10 such cows,
with the natural allotment of pigs, poultry
and garden, would support in comfort a
family of say five individuals a population
of more than 5000 without considering the
pasture of the neighboring hills.
Timber Stand Cited.
In the water ahed drained by this river
there are billions of feet of timber. Five
thousand men for 25 years might labor in
manufacturing it Into lumber and yet the
forests would not be depleted. Four million,
five hundred thousand dollars would be a
reasonable estimate of Its annual output and
87,500 people would be comfortably cared
, for by the operations In this district dur
ing the .quarter of a century.
The great valleys of the Pacific Coast,
lying between its two mountain systems,
are to become famed the world 'round.
This comprehends but a fraction of the
whole agricultural possibilities. At the
broad fields beyond the Cascades and Sierra
Kevadas. we have not yet glanced. The
agricultural possibilities of the section ly
ing between the mountains named and the
Rockies is so enormous that I hesitate at
the computation. In this region there are
tens of millions of acres that a few years
ago were considered worthless, or of little
value.
Reclamation by irrigation has given a
new meaning to agriculture on the Pacific
Coast. Land without value when arid has
been reclaimed at a cost of from $10 to
$60 an acre and become worth from $100
to $500 an acre, based upon the annual
revenue from Its never-falling yields.
In 110 Idaho had over 5.000,000 acres
under water, over 10,000 miles of Irriga
tion canals constructed at a cost of $00.
00,000. Yet the work there Is only fairly
begun.
We have mentioned fruit as an incident
. only, yet the Coast raises about 25 per
cent of the United States' crop. Its value
in 1909 was over $33,000,000.
It is easily believable that on the 25,
OOO.OOO acres of forest lands In Oregon
alone there may be dwelling within a com
. paratively short time more people than now
in the state. Of course this will depend
upon the attitude of administrators of both
privately and publicly owned land and the
policy of the Government In aldlna set
tlers. Manufacturing I'utnre Predicted.
As to occupation, we have looked only
to agriculture. Lt us pass hastily to
manufacturing. In this line our first and
greatest opportunity is In lumbering. Be
. fore the end of another decade wealth will
begin to flow to the Pacific Coast for lum
ber and Its products in such sums annually
. and continuously for many years as to give
a basis for employment, aggregating many,
many millions.
As a first step, let us cite what lumber
. ing was to Oregon in 1812. It rilnu.ii. -m
ployed one-eighth of the population; it
brought daily over $70,000 outside money
into the Btate; it employed over 60 per
cent of all persons engaged in manufactur
ing. Eighty per cent of our outgoing
freight was lumber. The value of the
standing timber Is nearlv iTnnmniviii
Manufactured into lumber It would cost
. $7,000,000,000. Manufacture a reasonable
pert of the lumber into furniture and other
articles of common use and the value added
by labor will continue almost indefinitely.
Our fishing Industry must not be over
looked. The West has produced in one

POLICY SAID WRONG'
Filipinos Far From Ripe for
Self-Government, Declared.
SCHOOLS AIDING IN WORK
It. Z. Burgess, Dagupan Merchant,
on Visit to Albany, Asserts Gov
ernment Action Will Lead
Eventually to Tronble.
ALBANY, Or.. April 18. (Special.)
That the present Government policy in
the Philippine Islands Is wrong and
eventually will lead to trouble there is
the opinion of L. Z. Burgess, manager
of a general merchandise store at
Dagupan. a city on the island of Luzon,
about 120 miles north of Manila, who
has been a resident of the Philippines
continuously for almost 13 years. He
thinks the American schools established
on the island will fit the Filipinos for
self-government, but that the Filipinos
are far from ripe for it now.
Mr. Burgess arrived in Albany Tues
day, bringing with him the 8-year-old
and 10-year-old daughters of C. H. Mo
Clure. of Dagupan. The little girls
will live with their uncle, D. C. Mc
Clure, for the next five years, and at
tend school In this city. Mr. Burgess
will go to his former home in Crocker,
Mo., for a visit, and will then return
to the Islands.
"The Government should maintain a
stronger policy toward the Philip
pines," said Mr. Burgess. "It is all
right to place Filipinos in some posi
tions, but Americans should hold the
reins and retain the balance of power
always. That Is the only safe way.
Under the new policy of the Govern
ment the Americans in the civil ser
vice In the Islands are being displaced
rapidly by Filipinos. Men who havo
been in tHe service as long as 15 years
and passed a civil service examination.
mind you,, are being asked to resign,
so that their places may be filled by
natives. Many men who have worked
bard .and faithfully, and have been
promoted through various branches In
the civil service, have been displaced by
Filipinos recently.
"It would be a great mistake to give
the ' Filipinos independence at this
time," Mr. Burgess continued. "There
are a few Filipinos who are fitted for
self-government. Some of them are as
able as could be found anywhere. But
the number of these men Is so small In
proportion to the total population that
independence at this time would be a
great mistake. It is generally regard
ed In the islands that if the Filipinos
were granted independence, trouble
with Japan or China would ensue in a
few months, and this country would be
embroiled as a result.
"The mass of the people Is very igno.
rant, and not capable in any sense for
self-government. The American schools
established In the islands are making
wonderful, simply wonderful improve
ment, among the natives, and in the
course of 10 or 20 years it is probable
that many of the younger Filipinos
will be able to vote Intelligently. Most
of the children are taking a keen In
terest In the schools, and are being
educated rapidly."
That the Filipino children take to
American sports as readily as to Amer
ican teaching' in the schools Is another
statement of the Dagupan merchant.
He says baseball has practically dis
placed native sports, and the cock
fighting pits are almost a thing of the
past. He says the boys play baseball
splendidly, and almost every village
has a baseball field with games in
progress most of the time. So far
have the Filipinos progressed In learn
ing the game, he says, that a Filipino
team in Manila plays on a par with
the best Army teams there.
Filipinos Take Up Sporta.
"Not only have the Filipinos taken
up baseball and made It the leading
sport of the Islands already," said Mr.
Burgess, "but the schools have regular
field meets Just like those of this coun
try. The natives participate in all the
usual track and field events, and have
tournaments continuing sometimes for
four days, when they have their inter
scholastic meets."
Mr. Burgess went to the Philippines
In 1899. with the Thirty-second United
States Volunteer Infantry, and has been
there ever since. He was honorably
discharged from his regiment in 1901,
but continued in the service for 13
months longer as a civilian scout. He
then entered- the Government service
In the construction of roads and
bridges, and for five years was in the
Bureau of Internal Revenue In the
islands. He was stationed as an Inter,
nal Revenue Collector in Pangaalnan
Province, Luion, and resigned to be
come manager of the American store
at Dagupan.
Dagupan is a city of 21,000 people,
only eight of whom are Americans. The
store of which Mr. Burgess Is manager
is the only American store in the city.
There are only three natives in busi
ness there. Practically all of the busi
ness of the city is conducted by Chi
nese, there being more than 100 Chinese
merchants.
Mr. Burgess had not left the islands
since he went there as a soldier until
this trip. He wanted to return for a
visit, so Mr. McClure, who is one of his
employers, sent his two little daugh
ters under his care on the long Journey
desiring the little girls to attend school
in this country for several years.
CRANES DO GREAT DAMAGE
Farmers at Ls Grande Want Law So
- Amended to Protect" Fields.
LA GRANDE. Or.. April 16. Petitions
to Copgress are being circulated
among the farmers of the Grand
Ronde Valley asking that the law pro.
tecting the Sandhill crane be set aside.
and are being liberally signed. The
bird is protected by the Federal game
laws. They have become quite ven
turesome and thousands light upon
one wheat field at a time only to fly to
an adjoining field when scared away.
Their damage is serious, as each bite
spells a wheat plant.
State Game Warden Evans was In La
Grande last evening conferring with
Deputy Warden Leffel regarding the
crane question and advice that the
farmers scare the cranes away without
.killing any of them was given out after
the interview. This is especially hard
for the Injured farmer to do, for
coupled with the damage which the
bird does him, it is especially fine meat.

common ground, to stimulate Interest
among parents regarding school con
ditions, and to aid in making the pub
lic school syBtem more efficient.
Work Is Explained.
The industrial club work carried ion
by the extension department consists
in the giving of lectures, usually in
the schoolhouse, and demonstrations
on the school grounds. In dairying
communities, for example, the method
would be to give a lecture upon some
one or more of the principal factors in
dairying, and after adjournment, to
make "cow demonstrations." using ani
mals owned by dairymen in the neigh
borhood. The relation of the conforma
tion of the animal to profitable milk
production is pointed out. and the rela
tive value of each important point In
dicated. Following this, each of those
present is given a score card, and the
animals are scored. The scores of the
students are then corrected by the
demonstrator. These demonstrations
are popular and draw crowds every
where, both because the farmers get
the benefit of the instruction, and be
cause the 'opinion of the demonstrator
on the quality of the stock in the com
munity is valued by the- progressiva
farmers of the district.
