Umatilla county owns the poor farm, and it must put it in condition to yield the most profit on the invest ment. and be of the highest efficiency in the purpose for which it tu in- tended. The present quarters can be sold and the proceeds applied to making the Chapman place the best equipped farm in Umatilla county. Nothing short of this will satisfy those who believe in county poor farms. The county should own the best, most productive, most profitable piece of property in the county. No expense must be spared, now since the farm is bought. The only complaint ever made on the poor farm proposition, was the initial cost Nobody denies the excellence of the farm, and now that the county owns the farm, the people are unani mous in demanding that this excel lence be utilized for their advantage. In Umatilla county is not found a more desirable building place, for such buildings as will be needed, than is found on the hill, near the road, just east of the orchard, on the poor farm. High, dry, sightly, healthful, well situated for drainage, convenient to the main roads, easy of access to all portions of the farm, it is an ideal site for the house and hospital build ing or inmates' quarters. While the farm is in a high state of cultivation, it can still be improv- ed. It can be stocked with good furnished breeds of farm animals, with labor-saving tools and turned in to a bee hive of industry, by the la bor of those who are not helpless and who would naturally enjoy a life of light labor on a farm. Near the best market in Eastern Oregon, it can be made the official market garden and granary of Uma tilla county, It can utilize every foot of land, and every hour of time, in some useful and profitable product, Beautiful in the summer season, its artificial lakes, groves and lawns can be more elaborately prepared and be made a Mecca. In future, as it has been to a great extent, in the past, for the tired city, thirsting for an hour of recreation in some country nook. The quicker the new quarters are built and the old poor farm disposed of, the more profitable it will be for the county. Two farms are not Reduce the number of studies; give more time to classes; go to the bot tom of branches taught; lay founda tions upon the solid rock of under standing, and get off the shifting sandbars of surface learning, quickly forgotten or inadequate to meet the The resolution, demands of life. which follows, should receive the earnest consideration of the board of education: Whereas. The public school Is the only Institution actually employed in the education of the masses, and Whereas, a very large per cent of the children receive all the education they ever acquire in said public school, and Whereas. The course of study now employed in the public schools of this state requires so much work on the part of the child, that the essential branches are not and cannot be well learned, and Whereas. The number of books now in use in said course of Instruc- tlon in said public sehools is exces- aive and a financial burden upon the people of the state. Therefore. Be it resolved by the senate, the house concurring, that the state board of education be. and is hereby earnestly requested to so re vise the course of Instruction now in use in the public schools of this state, a« to reduce the amount of work and give special attention to the branches that will be of most value to the children in pursuing the different av ocations of life. And that it is the sense of the leg islature that the public schools of the state should be encouraged and fost ered by every means in our power. WHERE INVESTIGATION HURTS. W. H. O’Dell, former clerk of the state land board ,who has been prom inently connected with Oregon school land, lieu land and swamp land trans actions during the term of Governor Geer, is out with an 80-page pamph let, denouncing the Investigations of committee, as a the legislative “farce, conceived In envy, prosecuted with malice, and executed with crim- Inal stupidity." It *111 require more than 80 pages of vile names, and empty assertions, to convince the people of Oregon that there has been no crookedness in the land transactions of this state during the past four years. O’Dell nor State Land Agent Geer, may neither be guilty of it This is for the Investigating committee to say. But white hot denunciation of a properly authorized committee, which sought the truth, in the inter est of the people, will not lessen the suspicion now established in the mind of every man in Oregon ac quainted with the facts, that there wax something wrong in the state land office and the state land trans- actions. The people may be denounced, an envious, malicious, stupid set by the parasites who are disturbed in their blood-sucking processes, but, right usually comes uppermost and justice is always done. Crookedness convicts itself If given time.

No. 24, Introduced by Senator Miller, of Linn county, and passed by the legis lature, contains some -M the most im portant and vital suggestions that were laid before the people by the twenty-second session. SAVE OREGON'S FORESTS. The statement Is made by San Francisco papers that Oregon pine lumber In the rough. Is now worth 321 per thousand in that city. Six months ago the same lumber in that market was worth but $12 per thous and and it may be said that this in crease in price, represents the rap- idity with which the resources of Or- egon forests are passfng away from the people. The plow shall turn the grassy plain The sickle reap the golden grain; But those who now the valley sow. Shall each lie slumbering cold and low. Where now we sit in twilight bowers With music, kisses, love and flowers. Shall others call the rising moon To hear their vows—forgotten soon. shadow o’er the field of grass living century shall pass fading, as a summer eve. earth to those who follow leave. . • • • • One. with whom the battle of life had gone hard, and w-ho at last decid ed to quit the unequal struggle, left this message to a friend on the eve of her departure: “So will I journey alone to a far country, the Ruler of which will know my story and will judge mercifully, and where you. my friend, will one day come, and we will know whether I have done well or ill.” • • • Tropical climes with their wealth of shrubbery and sunlight have never lacked for appreciative pens to de scribe their charm, but the Arctlca, too. have their charm as witness the following pen picture from a wander er In the Far North: “A grander scene than our bay by moonlight, can hardly be conceived: it Is more dreamlike and supernatural than a combination of earthly features. The moon is nearly full and the drawing sunlight mingling with hers. Invents everything with an atmosphere of ashy grey It clothes the gnarled hills that make the horizon of our bay: shadows out the terraces in dull definition; grows darker and colder as it sinks Into the fiords, and broods sad and dreary upon tbe ridge» and measureless plains of ice that make up the rest of our field of view. Ris ing above all thia and shad.ng down Into It in strange combination. Is the intense moonlight, glittering on ev ery crag and spire, tracing the out line of the background with contrast ed brightness, and printing its fantas tic profile« on the snowfield It is a landscape such as Milton or Dante might imagine—Inorganic, desolate, mysterious I have come down from deck with the feelings of a man who has looked upon a world unfinished by the hand of Its Creator." • • • It would appear from a perusal of Mr. Bryan's replies to the Tilden Club banqueters that the injunction "Turn the other cheek” is not literally en forced at Lincoln. Neb. • • • Mr. Baer Mr President Baer has been talking some more lately, this time about tbe Civic Federation, and Oscar 8. Strauss a prominent mem ber of the federation replies: “I regret to sav that Mr Baer’s statements re garding the federation are Incorrect as to facts and misleading in deduc tion." This seems to be a diplomat ic way of calling Mr Baer a common, everv day liar. Like This And The Without some decisive action on the part of the national government, the forests of the Pacific Coast will be stripped from the mountains, with in the period of ten yer.rs. The rate at which lumber is being sent out of the state, and at which tbe destruc tive forest fires are denuding the mountains, is alarming Last year over $4,000,000 worth of aamage was done to Oregon forests by fire. The amount of lumber manufactured was one billion feet, valued at $10.000,000. The total value of the standing timber in the state is estimated at $250,000.0**0. Each year the amount consumed by fire and removed by the lumber trade is increasing. In 1902 the value of forests thus remov ed was $14.000,000. At this rate of decrease, with no systematic efforts to replenish forest areas, the present supply will last but eighteen years. Oregon is not yet at the prime of her industrial life. Twenty years will be but a beginning for the splendid resources of the state. Yet the ruth less slaughter of that priceless treas ure goes on, furiously. What effort is being made to secure the future? What provision do we find in the creed of today, for the safety of tomorrow? The people will have need of for- eats in Oregon after the government shall have ended its extravagant practise of forest denudation. The forest reservation must be in stituted to protect that people in their rights. The generations that are to perpetuate the excellence of this state, will deplore the short sighted policy of their nineteenth cen tury forefathers ,who destroyed with out rebuilding, the heritage that na- ture gave them. Portland can ill afford to suffer a three quarters of a million fire loss, on the eve of a phenomina] era of building preparation for the fair. She must tax her energies to meet the extraordinary demand, and remember that progress never enjoys clear sail ing. Every step in municipal life costs money and work.
