W. R. & N. Co. is forced to curtail s6me on its passenger service in order to reduce expenses. No complaint is made against that action, but it is timely to remark that t,he greatest economy this railroad and other railroads' could mate would be to electrify. With the single exception of the Milwaukee our northwest rail roads are all' operated by motive power based on the use of coal ind oil. . . . " , . This fuel is shipped in from other states and necessarily the -t .. 1 . . I . r - rt-i .. auci cum is someming lerruic. mis cost tails directly upon the shipper and consumer who must pay rates to produce railroad dividends on present costs. The practice is also injurious to pos terity for the reason our coal and oil suppliea will some day be exhausted and therefore these supplies should be conserved in every possible way. 1 . ' ' j While the railroads consume -vast quantities of oil and coal yearly we are allowing the water power of the northwest to go virtually unused. The Columbia r:ver alone-can be made to generate enough hydro electric power to operate every railroad in the northwest Once developed that power is inexhaustible and is provided by the Almighty without cost. . , The development of power on our rivers is the foremost task before our people and it is a task that should no longer be neg lected. The people of this region believe that the Columbia , rapids power site is the most feasible for early development and are planning to get the subject fairly presented before the pow ers that be. It is a great move for the common good and it is logical to expect a very pronounced interest on the part of the railroads now forced to rely on coal and oil for motive power. , i ' THE ONLY USE WE HAVE FOR THEM G ROVER. CLEVELAND BERG DOLL, millionaire draft dodger who has found a haven of refuge in Germany, sends word that he and his chauffeur will return to Am erica, "if America needs us." - There was -a. time that America needed them and where were they then? They did not volunteer their services to their country and they fled from the draft officials when their time came for induction into' the army. They have been dodging the long arm of the law ever since and have only eluded it by crossing into the country which was their own country's enemy during the war they would not help fight. It would be a fit punishment if they were banished from America for life and compelled to spend their days in Ger many. America will never need such citizens as they unless perchance she should want them to exhibit before growing young Americans as examples of all that an American should not be. - AFTER TOURIST BUSINESS THE Portland Chamber of Commerce and the Oregon State Chamber of Commerce, representing every section of Oregon, have gone on record strongly endorsing the work of the Pacific Northwest Tourist Association which was organized four years ago to attract and direct tourist travel to the Pacific Northwest states. The association has been the cmef factor in- advertising and disseminating information in a national way regarding the scenic grandeurs of Oregon. That work may be co'ducted on a larger scale, the association this year is to ask the state legislatures of Oregon and Washington, and the parliament of British Columbia for increased appropriations luiuiot, travel Dureaus. In connection with the work of the major organization, it is proposed that a separate bureau be established in Oregon, to be financed by the state an controlled by a commission to be ppointed-by the governor. For this purpose it is proposed to appropriate ?12,500 a year. The Oregon bureau would have the direction of the tourists to the various sections of the state, would keep in touch with hotels, would issue information re garding roads, would assist the scenic sections of the state to develop the tourist business to the highest possible degree, and would do evervthina- make Oregon one of the most attractive states in the union for iic entertainment 01 tourists. " w. ; Properly handled, it is believed, the Oregon bureau can at-' tract to the state iriflnv tourist v.-hn into i.;n chu i - ti .. " " .
