He was a believer in justice at all times, and altho an intense partisan, listened to opposition of opinion with an equanimity that was commenda ble. The world is always made better by such men as he. Phys it-ally, he made his mistake w hen lie left the farm whereon he had lived and toiled so many years, like thousands of others who have left a life of activity to retire to the comforts of town life for they at his advanced age soon pass. The New Years Orcgonian came this morning, and it is a symposium of all the best for which Oregon stands.

HI.NES, Work more Produce more Save more But we can't continue increasing our production unless we continue increasing our railroad facilities. The farms, mines and factories cannot increase their output beyond the capacity of the railroads to haul their products. Railroads are now near the peak of their carrying capacity. Without railroad expansion more en gines, more cars, more tracks, more ter minalsthere can be little increase in production. But this country of ours is going to keep right on growing and the railroads must grow wilh it. To command in the investment markets the How of new capital to expand railroad facilities and so increase production there must be public confidence in the future earning power of railroads. The nation's business can gww only as fast as the railroads grow.
