BETTER TIMKS THAX EVER.
Prosperity, better and saner than
tho United States has ever known be
fore, is foreseen for the next decade
by Prof. Henry C. Adams, for twenty
years in charge if statistics and ac
counts for the "interstate commerce
commission.
Prof. Adams Is recognized as one
of the closest students of industrial
and financial conditions in the service
of the government. His intimate as
sociation with the railroads and
their operation has given him an in
sight into conditions unequalled.
The commission's statistician has
reached the conclusion that business
in all lines will return rapidly to nor
mal, and normal conditions are to be
-exceeded quickly by extraordinary
prosperity in every department of in
dustrial activity. '
Both capital and labor, In his opin
ion, are on the dawn of a new day.
Prof. Adams declared that the hold
er of stocks Is about "to come into
Iiils own." He regards the depression
that followed the panic of last Octo
ber as a blessing in disguise, in that
it will insure economy by preventing
the retlurn of reckless confidence
that was engendered by too much and
jtoo long continued good times.
"JVe are now almost through the
depression to which I referred," he
said today. "It was preceded by a
period of intense business activity.
.Inevitably during such a period men
Jose more or less of their caution.
JEverythlng seems prosperous and
. promising, and there is less care tak
en to watch the details of manage
ment and expenditure. So when tao
..-depression comes and revenues fall
-away, tho managers cast about for
-means to reduce expenditures. Thoy
have beon finding out for the larger
.part of a year past where to make
economies, where they were per
mitting part of their money to go I:i
.rio (avoidable expense. They have
i&een taking in tho slack, getting
things on the safe and secure basis.
It has beon a severe experience, but
from tho standpoint of the sharehold-
.et 1t has .been really a good thing.
"The depression will end and
business will be good again. Its vol-
. ume In the next cycle will be greater
.than evor. But tho lesson of this
) .vperiod of enforced economies will not
be soon. unlearned. Tho increasing
. revenues will bo paralleled off
- against columns showing' reduced ex
penditures in many ways. Thero will
be jtrpatercafe and ecoiiomy, wijth
the result that the stockholder will
..Jhayo a b'etfeF'sliarb coming to him."

What do ye give of the very God,

And crimson the ground with stain?
Oh, ye of the little loves,
Who kiss in the golden sun.
Could ye but lightly guess
Tho glory by great love won
Could ye but guess so lightly
The glory by great love won,,
Ye would pierce your breasts witn

Ye wa3te your hearts on a faith

TTtOMISE RAILROAD 11UILDIXG.
Tho public has hoard much about
railroad building Into Contrnl Oro
gon, but it has seen entiroly too lit
tle of It. Thero has beon talk of
building to tho coast, and rights of
way wero secured, sometimes nt vory
low prices, on the plea that tho lino
was an independent one. It now
turns out that from tho first It was
a Harrlman enterprise. But tho mo-
.anent tho so-called panic came, nil
work was stopped and the enterprise
apparently abandoned. An investiga
tion Is now in progress upon which
is said to hinge the question whether
or not the work is to be prosecuted.
What Is true of this enterprise is
true of every other' Harrlman rail
road building enterprise in the state.
When tho panic camo, everything
was shut down tight.
It is now stated that there Is to bo
some money spent In building an ex
tension In Central Orogon. We hopo
so, but there has been so much talk
like this that The Telegram will pa
tiently wait tho outcome and actual
ly see the line in operation before it
wastes any enthusiasm upon projects
that may never materialize. Oregon
has steadily and persistently got tho
worst of it in the matter of railroad
building, and the chief sinner has
boon Mr. Harrlman. Oregon has
been an imperial domain, with no
other outlet, and tho treatment it
has received has not been calculated
to please It, little Inclined as it has
ever been to bo exacting or oven to
demand what It was entitled to re
ceive. But tho work cannot bo much
longer delayed if not by one qprpor
atlon, then by anothor. With prac
tically four-fifths of tho state with
out railroad communication, nn in
dictment Is brought against tho ex
isting railroad domination that is not
paralleled in tho country. It is high
time that thore was railroad building
In Oregon. It is likewise high time
thnt it was dealt out ungrudgingly,
not a mile or two nt a time, but upon
a scalo commonsurnto to our noeds.
That wo nro entitled to it cuts no fig
ure but tho circumstance thnt It Is
good business policy should. Port-
