NOTED and sudden revival of A good times Is reported or of Industrial activity that makes , for and la an assurance of bet ter times. This was expected, and due, without any reference to poll- tics If this had been an off year but It Is credited to the alleged as surance In certain big business cir cles that Taffs election Is sure. The , great captains of Industry and finance, it Is given out, were only waiting until Bryan was nominated, . being certain that this would insure s Taft's election beyond any doubt, . which was all that was needed to . give business a boom. rr Another explanation puts the case the other1 way about, and is that busi ness is to be made to boom by a concerted movement in order to aid Taft's election; that industries are all to get Into fall operation and all workingmen are to be employed, and the word Is to go forth that a continuance of these conditions will depend on that result; workingmen , and business men throughout the country will be given to understand that prosperity and confidence have returned to stay providing Bryan is beaten again, but wil, disappear In the event of his election a mere re finement of the scheme of wholesale Intimidation that was worked so ef fectually under the late Mark Han lia's leadership In 1896 and 1900. There Is probably some basis of truth .In both these theories or ex planations. Maay of the big Indus trial and financial captains are very likely pretty sure that Taft will win, . and largely liecause. of better times that they will help to bring about during the f all, and we are willing to give some of them credit for hon estly believing that Bryan's election would bei disastrous. Not a few of them might try, not entirely with out at least temporary success, to make it so. The fact Is, however, that Indus- " trial and financial conditions have bsen Improving gradually for I months past, and that far greater business activity and employment of labor must under existing conditions have taken place If this had not been a presidential campaign year. The situation Imperatively demanded this. Independent of the alleged cer tainty or probability of Taft's elec tion. The people have again raised great crops, which will bring good prices, and they are demanding im mensely Increased amounts of man ufactures, and Justifying by their present and immediately prospective expenditures a general expansion of business. That the Republican lead ers and their allies, the manipulators of "interests," should make political capital out of this, was to be expect ed, and is perhaps legitimate. Isn't fooling the people the main point of the game? Workingmen ts a rule are not favorable to Taft, and are offended with their treatment at Chicago and by the lat coii press, but if now they can be made to believe that It is friends and supporters of Taft who are employing thorn, and that. ten consent of two thirds of the prop erty owners on both, sides of the street be secured before a billboard may be erected In any block in a residence district. A residence dis trict la described as a block In which a majority of the buildings are resi dences. Why would this not be good ordinance here? WATSOX ON BRYAN. M' R. THOMAS E. WATSON Populist candidate for presi dent, censures Mr. Bryan harshly for changing his at titude In various ways since 1896 But Mr. Watson Is careful to rail In general terms, and not to go Into particulars much. He appears to accuse Mr. Bryan of holding differ ent views now from what he did then on the currency question, but even as to this Watson Is not spe cific and definite. Mr. Bryan eer talnly Is not advocating the free coinage of silver at 16 to 1 as he did then, because, as he says, the gold base broadened and the quantity of money sufficiently Increased. But It Is not this that offends Mr. Watson, but the fact that Bryan Is not a greenbacker, a "flat" money inaji, like himself. Even If Mr Bryan has changed his views and at titude on some questions since 1896, this is no discredit to him: rather the contrary, for he must be a dull or obstinate man Indeed who does not gain In wisdom between 36 and 48 years of age, especially If he has come Into contact with man and af fairs as much as Mr. Bryan has. But Mr. Watson attributes the changes or modifications In Mr. Bryan's views and these largely maginary to bad motives, to a sur render of principle in order to gain favor with people of wealth and power. This exhibits w atson as a man of narrow, mean mind. The man who attributes base motives to everybody ho does not agree with him be comes himself an object of suspicion. One who regards every one who dif fers with htm as a scoundrel will bear close watching. No honest man thinks, everybody else dishonest for holding a different opinion. Watson may be honest and sin cere, but If so he Is blinded by bit ter prejudices. He is Intolerant in h.ls radicalism, and can see no good in anything except the Ideas and theories he has espoused.

NOW PORTLAND CAN (jO AHEAD. T HE decision of the supreme court yesterday in the case of the charter amendments voted for a year ago last month, dis elpates a large If only a temporary cloud that hung In Portland's skv or ro vary the metaphor', removed a big boulder from her upward and onward path. The supremfe (jourt holds that It was competent for the council to initiate the petitions for these amendments, and that they are legal and valid parts of the city charter, even if in conflict 'with ex isting provisions. Now the bonds for the proposed Improvements can be issued and marketed, and can no doubt be sold at good figures. The improvements for which the money is to be ex pended are all urgently needed. The city will need a greater supply of Bull Run water by the time the new pipe line can be laid. Municipal docks will be of immense ultimate advantage to the city. A new bridge in place of the Madison street bridge Is an imperative necessity. A new fireboat and reinforcing mains are regarded as important. .More parK grounds are very desirable. The plan for district improvement of streets is believed to be far better than the present system, and hence forth it will take four fifths of the property owners to prevent needed Improvements. The other amend ments were of minor importance, though the one creating a free em ployment bureau should bring good results. Now let there be no further un necessary delay in carrying forward Wilson in the Chamber of nnmmrfli RullAtln. THE Woodburn Independent r?.

But what else has Mr. Harrlman done since he became master of the Union Pacific system to "benefit Oregon, from which he has taken between $30,000,000 and $40,000,000 in velvet" gold? Does the Independ ent know of anything? If so, why did It not mention It? Mr. Harrlman never was a great railroad builder, like Mr. Hill. Har riman has bottled up two thirds or more of Oregon; Hill has grldironed Washington with railroads and add ed hirridreds of thousands to Its pop ulation and tens of millions to its wealth. Hill builds Into new re gions to develop them and so cre ate business for his roads; Har rlman has for years built nowhere unless forced to do so in rivalry to Hill or Gould.

It frequently occurs thatthese lands are embraced within an irriga tion district, but cannot be furnished with water from the government proj ect, which fact, of course, ls very cane fully suppressed by the land agent. The Innocent purchaser discovers too lata, that he has paid an excessive price for land of little value and unsulted for a home. A case In point has recently been reported to the service by several In vestors, lnv which a company offering lands for sale states that the tracts are within the limits of lands with drawn for a project under the reclama tion act. investigation shows that this is undoubtedly true, but the comnanv falls, to state - that these land's cannot be wateid from It because the area Irrigated by the canal system was lim ited, and these particular lands could not for several years. If ever, be In cluded within the area Irrigated. iierore maxing investments under such advertisements, Investors should write to the office of the reclamation service on the project, or the Water I sera association established there, and obtain full information as to the con dition ef the lands and the possibility of furnishing water to them. If the proper local addresses are not known, a letter to the reclamation service at Washington, D.
