It now, but not one word 'of protest did that paper ever lift. Ai long ai It was done under a convention system, tbe prac tice went unreproached and uncon- demned. Even the notorious elec tion frauds tn 1904, when more than 2.000 bogus certificate! were dis covered by The Journal ready for uae In voting Democrat! or members of any other party In Republican In forests, not one single word of pro test was lifted by the paper that has suddenly bloomed out as a paragon and saintly exemplar of election purity.. To those who know that paper's record, how empty and what a mockery is Its chastened cnarge that Democrats voted In the late primaries to such an extent as to change results.

I HE RAPIDLY increasing traf fic development of the coun try makes absolutely neces sary an enormous expendi ture for Improved facilities," ssys American inanstr.es. in is is un doubtedly true, although several hundreds of thousands of cars have . been idle during the past few months. They will all be needed, and more, in the near future. Mr. J. J. Hill keeps repeating that the country needs $6,500,000,000 worth of more railroads and railroad equip ment In the next five years. Mr. Harriman admits that he must ex pend hundreds of millions In extend ing and expanding his systems. The Pennsylvania railroad has spent sev eral hundred millions within a short time, and mast spend a good deal more. So with other great systems. Here la the Pacific Northwest both Mr. Hill and Mr. Harriman are getting exceptionally busy. They realise that the country needs many more miles of railroad and a great deal more equipment and facilities, and they will have to be supplied. Tbe peopl will ultimately "pay the freight. and they are bound to get tbe roads. And they are going to get a lot of local electric lines too, whether Mr. Hill and Mr. Harriman build them or not. WO THINGS are of more In portance to thq country people t and to all of us than any passing phase of politics, the success of one party rather than an other. These are: Better Cultiva tion of soil; and Better Roads The people of Oregon are impror- Ing in these matters year by year, but there Is need of greater, more rapid and more intelligent Improve ment. In a good many Instances a man can raise $1,000 worth of stuff per acre, or even more, on a small tract of land. In far more numerous cases he can raise $100 an acre. This can be done on hundreds of tnousanas or acres oi uregon sou. And then on millions of other acres the returns will amount to $50, $40, $30 or $25 an acre. If the best cul tivation is done enough to make families cheerful and thankful that the lines have fallen to them tn pleasant places. Now thousands of people should be striving, not spasmodically and feverishly, but steadily, thoughtfully, progressively, to raise 11,000. or $100, or $50 an acre of products on small tracts of land 40, 20, or 10 acres. Such famines are tne salt of the earth," Industrially. They are sure as a rule to be pretty good cltl- zens. nowerer tne men may vote, And get good roads. Tney pay in various ways that The Journal has often pointed out. They are a distinguishing physical evidence of civilization and progress. More scientific, thorough cultiva tion, and more good roads, are among the needs of Oregon. And they will materialize gradually as Oil NEWSPAPERS. s ENATOR FORAKER scarcely re- Uculara menibered the transaction, but on Investigation It was recalled to his memory that he had con sented to help a man, apparently a stranger, t6 get control of a news paper In Columbus, the capital of Ohio. Mr. Foraker did not have much money to Invest, but he had a client who had plenty, and so there were negotiations looking to the purchase of this paper for $135,000 Then, the Idea was, that Standard Oil would own the newspaper, and would of course control Its utter ancee. . .

The paper was to say what Standard Oil dictated, Just as Foraker In the senate was to do. - This has been done more or less directly, no doubt In several state, capitals and other cities.
