The small farmers are raining mar
ketable stuff, placing It on the mar
ket In a first class condition and are
receiving first class prices for It.
This condition has come about with
in the past few years. Formerly
many of the smaller farmers were
slovenly, sloppy, careless and happy-go-lucky,
and if they raised a crop
it was all right, and If the crop fail
ed for any reason It was all right
unyway. Now they work Intelligent
ly, cultivate their land thoroughly
and are making much progress.
He Is amazed at the vast Idle
areas of the west and is Impressed
with the need of irrigation to make
homes for the thousands of families
which are now looking toward the
west. People from the fartherest ex
treme corners of the south are look
ing toward the northwest. The story
of this country has reached and
thrilled them and hundreds of in
dustrious families will come to this
state as a result of the extensive ad
vertising given the state In the past
few years.

HENDRICKS' BASEMENT.
Corner Slain and Webb Streets.
C. S. Barrett, of Atwater, Ceorgla,
who Is known as "the farmers'
friend" throughout the southern
states and who Is president of the
Farmers' union of the south, was in
the city this morning on his way
to Walla Walla, Dayton and Pullman
where he goes to address farmers'
meetings and to assist in starting a
farmers' organtgation.
Mr. Barrett Is a hard worker for
the cause of the agriculturist and
believes in farmers' organizations,
unions, granges, associations and
combinations of every legitimate
sort by which prices of farm pro
duce may be raised and held up and
transportation and supplies may be
held In check.
Th grain sack Issue Is one which
the farmers of the south are not
called upen to meet, but they have
met the farming implement question
and the transportation question In
the south In a most practical man
ner and he 'believes that a farmers'
organization, it it could not "bust"
the sack trust, could secure sacks at
reasonable prices Instead of paying
the present exorhltant prices.
The southern farmer Is now enjoy
ing an era of prosperity and this has
largely come about through organ
ization and better farming methods.
Rearrangement of the Harriman Lines
WIU Give Promotions to Faithful
General Managers.
In the rearrangement of the Harri
man official roster made necessary by
the loss of prestige by Harriman In
the recent investigations, it Is said
(hat the present general managers of
various Harriman lines which com
prise the big systems, will be made
presidents of their respective lines.
Under this arrangement Generil
Manager J. P. O'Brien of the O. R. &
N., would become president of this
system. A dispatch from Omaha says
of the proposed change in the man'
agement:
A strong Impression prevails amontr
railroad men that Harriman will not
be elected to the position of president
of the several roads in the system
which bears his name. This does not
mean that he Is to retire or that he is
in any sense losing his control of the
Immense properties which he has con
trolled so long and so successfully.
But while no announcement of the
fact has been made and none Is looked
for in the immediate future, it is
matter of common talk that after the
next annual meeting of the different
roads the title of president of each
road will be held by the present vice
presidents, and that Harriman Iwlll
become chairman of the board of dl
rectors.
Under this plan A. H. Mohler would
! become president of the Union Pacific,
B. E. Calvin Of tne soutnern .racinc,
W. H. Bancroft of the Oregon Short
Line, and J. P. O'Brien of the Oregon
Railway & Navigation company. The
plan Is similar to that now in effect on
the Gould system. It will give greater
Individuality to each of the separate
roads, while at the same time main
talning the present harmony of the
management.
Together with the change In the ex
ecutive heads of the roads, a strength
ening of the boards of directors Is
looked for by the addition of new, men
who would share with Harriman the
increased responsibility which has
come with the great growth of the
system under his management.
Salaries of Conductors Raised From
140 to S150 Per Month and Work
1 Train Day la Shortened from 12 to
10 Hours New Schedule la Well
Received by Men in all Departments.
In receiving the actual benefits of
the recent wage settlement between
the trainmen and conductors and the
western railroads, the Oregon Dally
Journal says:
Trainmen's orders are pleased with
the result of the strike settlement
made by their chief officers and
committees at Chicago. The men did
not want a strike, as they realized
'hr.t such a course would be a great
calamity to the business interests of
the country. The settlement obtain1
ed from the railroad managers in
cludes material concessions as to
wages and conditions of service.
At the final stage of the negotia
tions there was but two cents dif
ference between what the men asked
and what the railroads were willing
to grant. In the settlement the men
obtained concessions that are regard
ed as nearly equivalent to that dif
ference.
A Real Wane Increase.
Under the new schedule which
went into effect April 6 passenger
conductor's wages are increased from
lUO to 1150 per month. Overtime is
granted In cases where by the delay
ing of a train the crew does not rcscn
destination on time where the crew
i nntitlrd to a lovover. as on the
Corvallls run. Wages for baggage.
men are Increased $7.60 per month
and flagmen $4.50 per month.
Freight conductors secure conces
sions still more important. Overtime
for passenger men will be on a ba
sis of 15 miles an hour and the rate
will be 35 cents an hour for baggage
men and flagmen, 23 cents: overtime
tn he counted where It exceeds 30
minutes.
Rccnlar Overtime Expected.
Work trnin crews, whose day now
consists of 12 hours, secured a re
duction of their day to 10 hours'
work. When they work 12 hours, as
is bound to he the case nearly all
the time, tljey will receive two hours'
overtime, which menns 90 cents
day increase for the conductors and
correspondingly less for the remain
der of the crew.
The effect of the settlement Is to
tslve yardmen an increase of pay
amounting to 4 cents an hour, or
cents a day.

COLUMBIA
The big railway bridge across the I
Columbia river which the Portland
& Seattle Railway company Is build
ing at Vancouver, will be a mile and
hulf long the longest steel bridge
In the world, work was begun in
January, 1906, and It Is expected that
the mammoth structure will be com
pleted early In 1908.
The bridge is located a short dis
tance from the main part of Van
couver, though the abutments and the
approach are within the city limits.
It Is on the Bite where the Union Pa
cific started : to build a bridge 14
years ago. In fact, the second pier t
from the Washington side the one
on which the draw bridge will rest
was built by the Union Pacific.
It extends over a small Island on
the Oregon side and across a slough
beyond there are 48 piers, ten In the
river and the rest on the Island and
In the slough. Those in the river
are sunk 40 fr.ct below the bottom
and are built of solid concrete from
the bottom up to within about 40
feet of the top. The upper portion
Is constructed of solid granite blocks.
Working In the caissons at 40
feet below the bottom of the river,
owing to local conditions, was more
perilous than usual In such work.
One workman lost his life and sev
eral were stricken with the strange
disease called "the bends" a paraly
sis of the lower part of the body.
The piers range In depth from 100
to 110 feet. They are 21x59 feet at
the bottom and 10x52 feet at the top.
except the pier on which rests the
draw bridge, which is about 25 fest
square.
The draw bridge is 464 feet long,
but, while longer than any other
draw bridge on the coast, will not
equal in length the draw of the Port-
li'inr1 Seattle Railway company's
new bridge over the Willamette,
which Is the longest In the world.
Abutments of Granite.
The abutments to the bridge, as
well as the upper part of the piers to
height varying from 25 to 45 feet.
are built of solid granite blocks quar
ried at Index, Washington, a point on
the Great Northern, northeast from
Seattle and near the Great Northern
tunnel. These blocks are brought
there cut to a given size and each
marked for a particular place.
The steel to be used in the con
struction of the bridge will weigh 20,.
000 tons, this weight not including the
double track of steel rails that will
be laid on the bridge. The actual
construction of thp steel work will
begin some time in. May.
A force of 200 men Is kept con
stantly at work rushing the structure
to completion. Bridge Engineer
Crosby is In Immediate charge of tho
work.
