The timber lands of Washington tributary to - the Northern Pact flo are already being' rapidly de nuded. The great timber reserves He in western Oregon and Washington. The great demand of tha future ia the east ern and middle states will be for fin ished lumber products. The Hill roads are. it ia said, preparing for the great movement of lumber from the Columbia river basin to the east, and the wheat traffic Js not an important Item in the north bank railroad builders' calcula tions! -. - It 1 said that with a deep harbor Portland would be absolutely Impreg nable as wheat and flour center, and that Oregon-farmers would . nJoy the benefits of tha highest prices paid' any where for wheat, and they would be nearer than any other known wheat fields to sn nntrammrled export I and domestic market..-- .-, -; 1 BaUroads Are Independent. But without a deeo channel at 4he bar, i the same ' farmers and producers will,: it Is said, be ever aubject to the differential of IA centa per ton so Ions as the ship ownera association imposes that burden on the port of Portland 'by reason of the bar at-the mouth of the Coluhibla. ' "T .: The construction -of the projected Harrlmaa lines from" Portland to - the sound will place the HI II and Harrlman roads on practically even, terms , as to their relations with the Oregon pro ducer. Neither will have to curry favor for wheat shipments. Both will refuse to pay the differential that is now being absorbed by the Harrlman lines."-"It is said no other conclusion can be reached by . any business man or farmer who looks the situation squarely In the face. The voters of Oregon must, it is said, begin to consider the Jetty as an Issue at the poUs. - WORD HAS SIX MORE VOTES (Continued from Page One.) The number of ballots gone. Over was Lilt.

The hard, tedious fight la already wearing on the attorneys and they are quicker to shew a flaeh of temper. .The most stubborn fight was over the validity of a Stevens ballot oir which there were marginal ' marks, not all In front of the namee of can didates. Judge JTrasar was at-flrst In clined to reject the bit of 'paper, but after several long speechesAttorney Malarkey convinced him that the marks might have Jjeen-made by accident dur ing the voting process. The ballot was counted, the Judge Issuing a . warning that he might reverae hla decision later. Another Stevens vote questioned a mo ment later was marked differently only In the minutest sense, but the marginal marks seemed less likely to be acci dental and the vote was allowed. . Besides heatedly debating upon the merits of ballots which stand a chance of being -rejected the attorneys are con tinually quibbling over the class of bal lots to which exception to the court's ruling that they be counted may be taken. - ' ' "You might as well object to a fly speck being on a " ballot,' " declared Blf6dew)ieTrMalarkey JshedtO"take exception to the counting 'of a batch of sheets whloh were more or less hlnttcd with ink. - It appeared plain - that the ink turkey tracks had been left by aome fuddle-thumbed election clerk In pre cinct No. 19 and the bunch was finally passed without exception. The tendency has been to except to every ballot of whose validity the moat elastic Imagina tion might conceive to be doubtful. There la no objection made to counting them, but they are laid aside as exhibits of plaintiff and defense, -t, Evidently neither Bide expects the contest to end with a recount before thw-clrcultcourt. but that the theatre of war will be transferred to a .higher tribunal' before the curtain Is rung down on the final act IO WMUI ll Xlll."

IpS .rejection of this ballotcalled up the memory of one. marked "Tea. In deed," which was counted for -Word,- and one marked "No sabe," which wag thrown out.' Judge Praser stated that though "No woman la mine" goee beyond mere emphasis as expressed by "Yes. indeed," he may have erred In hla decision as to the latter ballot, and, after due consid eration, might change hla decision In re gard to it. Thts would mean one less wote for Word. - - , The picture .of a , house, probably sketched by the voter while hesitating and" cogitating .over the respective merits of Stsvens and Word, caused his Note to be of no value at allT The vote was cast In- precinct lpr for Stevens. - .
