I'Ut thav d-i rot fro far - enough," declared Dr. Calvin a White, state health officer, yesterday. lie was Breaking In particular reference! to the Immediate need for the enactment of the law requiring a statewide tuberculin test for dairy cows. "We , are given power and authority i to fight against epidemics," continued Dr. White. "If some swift moving dis- -ease Is sweeping away the people, then we can muster the entire strength of the state to light it, off, or we can" fight against the minor diseases that occur sporadically here and there: throughout .the state. ' " , ' "But the state does' -ot give power to fight against such a disease as bo vine tuberculosis as should be done in " order to control the disease. Bovine . tuberculosis, or cow consumption. Is the greatest deterrent to the dairy industry. But more -than this, it is a continuous menace to human life. Few who. have .studied contend any longer that bovine tubercle bacilli are not transmissible to , humankind. . Ventilation Important.' . " "Those who make a specialty of treat ing consumptives find , many cases of bovine tuberculosis, especially among the; young. We are bo well convinced thai much of the Infection comes through milk that we would be going against the dictates of conscience not to protest against the sale of milk from animals that are known to have tuber culosis, or. for that matter, from cows that have not been proven by test free from the disease. ,'-"-'' 1 '"Whenever I hear that nearly every member of a dairy herd has been found .tubercular I expect to find, If I go - to fcoe, a dirty dairy barn, careless methods In producing milk, lack of ventilation, and, very likely, an impure water sup ply. Dirt and disease go band In hand, "I am fully aware that tuberculosis ' is frequently found among herds where the most cleanly methods possible are employed. Bat this does not signify that the disease is propagated '! readi ly where the, surroundings are , clean. ' Legislation; xrecessary.. . ; "To fay mind it means that' the full bowl 'has slopped over on the dry spot In other words, that with the infection to general it IS difficult, if not -impossible, to keep disease away from any . particular dairy. In the same way by . . passing a law to eradicate tuberculosis among cows whose milk is sold In Pprtland,..we cannot', hope to accomplish the purpose nntll we broaden its ef tects. . . v k - " J W must move generally. We most have a law that forbids tko existence of - a tubercular cow In Oregon. t . We must have a law that forbids, the sale of a cow not known by test to be free from tuberculosis. We must have a law that forbids the Importation into the state of any cow not known by test to be free v from tubercnloels. v -w ".- . "Such a law must bear with It pro- - visions for cleanliness in the operation of dairies. It must stipulate equipment that can be kept . clean, Ventilation mpst be among' the v first requirements. .

He should be recompensed In part, at least, for the loss of cows that are slaugh tered in the enforcement of the antl- ! tuberculosis law., v. "':-.' v..?w ? "Then if the legislature passes aoeh . a law aniT.heglects to provide means for tta enforcement It might Just as well leave the whole matter alone. It la not a law that we want it is eradication of disease and protection for human and animal lif e. . The law is but a means to the end.

' Since the ybonding' . of th Rainbow mine for over tl, 000,000 a few weeks ago, a neV impetus has been given the Mormon Basin mining district "Numer ous good placer mining properties in the district,' if not seriously handi capped by the water proposition, would long ago have ' been ' 'wonderful camps. The- excellent showings of ore found on , the surface go to show that some day the mother lode the greatest sur prise of this country will be found. Over $4,000,000 of . ore has been blocked out' In the Rainbow mine. - On the point of the California hill prospects from the surface rock of the Joe Wlrch'a claim go as high as $150 to the ton.

Baker city, now 22 miles away with a heavy iip-hill pull to the mines, is to lose all of the trade, Vale being preferred on account of the short distance and the down-hill haul for freighters. .

Morrison, Portland DAWAIIA'S CLIMATE One of a Scries of Letters Written by Mark Twain Years Ago ,In view of the Interest In the Ha waiian islands created br the - Rocue Tbompaon excursion,: which sails direct from Portland February 1. 1911. any thing pertaining to those garden spots or tne Pacific Is read with -much avid lty. Away back lri the early seventies Mark Twain wrote a series of letters to the New Tortc Tribune.- Everything he wrote was well written. In the first of these letters he tells the story of the Hawaiian climate, as be only could tell it. He wrote: - 1 spent several months in the fS-and wich Islands, six years ago. and, if could have my way about it, I would go. back there and remain the rest of my days. It is paradise for an indolent man. If -a-man is rich he can live ex pensively, and his grandeur will be re spected as in other parts of , the earth; if he is poor he can herd with the natives, and live on next to nothing; he can sun himself all day long under the palm treesaidbe-no-tnoTe-1ubled7l3yhtH conscience man a nuiierny wouia "When you are la that blessed retreat you are safe from the turmoil of life; you drowse iyour days away in a long deep dream of peace; the past is a for gotten thing,' the present ia heaven, the future you leave-, to take care of Itself. Ton are in the' center of the Pacific ocean ; syou are ' 2000 mllea from any continent; you are millions of miles from the world; as far as you can see, On any band, the crested billows wall the horizon, and beyond this barrier the wide universe is but a foreign land to you, and barren of interest. f "The climate is simply delicious never cold at the sea level, and never really too warm, for you are at the half-way house that is, twenty degrees above the equator. But then you may order your own climate, for thls rea son."; the 4 eight inhabited islands are merely mountains that lift ; themselves out of the sea a group of bells, if you please, with some (hut not very much) flare' at thetr basis. Ton get the idea? Well, you take a thermometer, and mark on it where you want the mercury to stand permanently , forever (with not more than II degrees variation) winter and summer. If 83 in the shade Is your figure" (with the privilege - of going down or up five or sir degrees at long Intervals), you build your house, down on the v flare' the ? sloping -or level ground by the seashore and yon have the deadest surest thing In the world on that temperature. :,. t-.H-.i - v i i-.r-. "And such is the climate of Honolulu, the capital of the kingdom. If you mark 70 as vour mean temnerature ' rou build your house on any mountafn side, 400 or 6Q0 feet above eea level. It you mark 55 pr 60, go 1500 feet higher, Tf you mark Tor wmtry weatner, go on rllmblng and watching your mercury. Tf you want snow and ice forever 'and ever, and sero and below, build on the summit of Mauna Kea, 16,000 feet up in the air. If you must have hot weather, you shonid build at Lahatna. where they do not "hang tha thermometer on a nail because the solder might melt and the Instrument got broken; or you should build in the crater of Kllauea, which would be the same as going home before your time. You can not find as much climate bunched together anywhere In the world as you can in the Sandwich Islands. i: . . - :'. :' i"'. ' Ton may stand on the summit of Manna Kea, In the midst of snowbanks that were there before captain Cook was born, maybe,' and while you shlvjsr in your furs you -, may cast r your eye down the sweep of .the mountain sldo and tell -exactly where, the frigid tone ends r and ? vegetaWe ; life begins; a stunted, and tormented growth of trees shades down into a taller and : freer species, and that In turn, into the full foliage and varied tints of the temperate zone; further down, the mere ordinary green tone of a forest washes over the edges of a broad bar of orange trees that embraces the mountain like a belt, and is so deep and dark a green that distance makes it black; and still fur ther down, your ' eye rests upon the levels of the seashore, where the sugar cane is scorching in the sun, and 'the feathery cocoa-palm glassing itself, in the tropical waves; and where you know the sinful natives are lolling about In ufter nakedness and never knowing or caring that you and your snow and your chattering teeth are bo close by.
