There are -S senators to be re placed by legislatures to De chosen at the November balloting. Of these, 1J are democrats and 15 republicans. Berry. Blackburn and Carmack. democrats, have been defeated, but replaced by other democrats. Martin and Morgan have the assurance of the primaries for re-election. The others must run their chances. So far as in creasing their strength in the sena'e is concerned, the democrats have very little hope for the coming elections. They cannot expect to gain in any state except possibly in West Virginia, when- Eikins is up f'r indorsement, anj they stand to lose in Colorado, where Patterson has been repudiated by his own city of Denver and where ! 7 The man w ho. perchance, thinks he labors aione, The man who stands out be- tween hovel and throne.

One of the best results of the Pen-dleton-Pilot Rock railroad will be to -cheapen and increase the fuel supply Ja this and other towns of the county. The wood yards In Pendleton are now more completely cleaned out than ever before since the railroad has been In operation over the Blue mountains. Fuel has been higher priced the past year than ever before. and the supply on the rilue mountains Is becoming more uncertain each year. The Pilot Rock railroad will Up a rich yellow pine district to the south and east of that place. This timber belt is the ultimate goai of the road for the mountains to the south are covered with a splendid forest, which will give the city a fuel supply that will be inexhaustible. In addition to relieving the fuel situation In this part of the country, the Pilot Rock road should be the means of locating a sawmill In this city with a capacity of at least 100.000 feet dally. The logs can be trans ported cheaply from the mountains. and the slabs, sawdust and other waste products can be utilized for fuel in the mills. England, the profits from the municipal electric light, gas. telephones and other city properties have been so great that the city coun cil has paid the sum of $217,304 of the city taxes for the past year, thus reducing the levy on the taxpayers about one-third of the usual amount. This Is a practical result of, public ownership one which no amount of sophistry can explain away nor dis parage. The city can furnish these utilities at cheaper rate than corpor ations for municipalities are satisfied with smaller profits. Then when the profits accumulate, as they have in Bolton, the city has a surplus on hand with which to pay off old debts, re duce taxes, or make further improve ments, as may be best. Pendleton and every other town can take a practical lesson from this story- Every town is founded on practically the same general lines. Taxes are republicanism is on an ascending . scale. Cullom. Dolliver. Frye. Crane. Nel son. Gamble and Warren, republics 1 senators who are acceptable to the people, are fairly certain of re-election.

In their efforts to disparage the re sult of the earthquake, the people of San Francisco exhibit a fort of fran tic hcf-fu!r.e which is amusing, if not pitiable, at times.
