There must be something in the late Winter days of February that conduces to greatness. L eslie M. S haw , former sec- retary of the treasury, says that Japan could lick the United Slates and not half try. It will be remem- bered that Hon. Mr. Shaw, is one of those “interest’’ men who were strong advocates of the Ship Sub sidy. Whenever Japan thinks she can lick Uncle Sam there will be several million good American fighters at the show on short notice, but there is no immediate danger of any trouble even though the Cali fornia legislatute is trying to enact anti-Japanese laws. There will be no conflict while men of today arc young enough to go to war. - • ■ ------- - ■ ---- ——— ■ ■ — v---------------------- extend a line from San Fr. ncisco to Drain, Ore. This would be the much talked of road down the coast that would cmne through this section. It is said that work has alreadv !>een done down in the neighborhood of Sherwood, Calif., also the road is built some distance north from Eureka, and a short stretch has been constructed between Smith’s river and Crescent City near the Oregon line. It is said that Harri- mm has been holding up his rail road building until he could get control of the Northwestern Pacific, and that now he will go ahead and construct the road at once. Now there has been so much railroad talk that most of these specu ations go in at one ear and out at the other, but people alwa- s like to figure on prospects, and they like to hear announcements, so this one will do to talk about until something else comes up to employ the minds of the people. In the meantime everyone will hope that there will really be some activity on this line in I he near future, and that the re- l>ort will not all be talk, as has been the case heretofore. A (.« roup of business men in New York gravely met a few days ago and drew up resolutions of advice for the consideration of country-bred youths who hope sometime to leave the farm to engage in metro politan activities. The admonition of these men, most of whom weie once farmei boys is “don’t”. Col lectively they admitted that, while they bad been reasonably success ful, their condition has been in no way bettered by the abandonment of rural neighborhoods and that they are probably le ss happy and contented than they might have b' en had they possessed the wisdom to accept the simple life with its many advantages. Of course, to talk in their paternal fashion to an ambitious youth of the country is merely to squander words. Young men who are convinced that they need only the opportunity to win wealth and fame in direct competi tion with city dwellers would give scant attention to such advice, no matter how disinterested it might seem. It really is not worth while to attempt to discourage country boys who believe they hear the call of the city, if, indeed, there is any reason why they should be dis couraged. The fact is, the cities of United States depend in a large ex tent upon the country bre I young men who are yearly recruited from pastoral disD icts. The life, the in dustry, the ambition, the hopeful ness which the lads from the farm bring to the cities is essential in the growth and health of metropolitan society. The farms, too. need the young men whom they have reared. As they are in demand in both the country and the cities, it would per haps be advisable to leave the farmer boys to settle the problem of lestiny for themselves.—Times. T he legislatute seems to have ar rived at a solution of the problem as to how Harriman's grip on Ore gon might be released, and that is the provision for building a state railway through territory that ne«*ds development, and measures looking toward that end are being consider ed in both house1- with favor. An amendment to the constitution will be necessary, and the movement is favored by the various sessions of the Oregon-Idaho development con gresses. It is probable that South ern Oregon and Idahb would be the first to receive benefit from the new law, as a railway from Boise to Coos Bay was the main consideration in influencing the development con gress to recommend such a law- says the Myrtle Point Enterprise. While this is all good it also seems that it will take the state about three years before it can get around to railroad building, at least this is the justice G aynor , a member of report, and then it would take the appellate division of the supreme another year or two to complete the court of Ne v York and an anti roads, so even in that event it would Tammany Democrat, expressed be « me time befcre the long suf some opinions recently that attracted fering public will get relief, but if a good deal of attention, and caused Mr. Harriman sees we really mean some of his judicial colleagues and business he may get busy and do corporation attorneys to “sit up and something. take notice.” He asserted that all T he C oos Bay Harbor has been giving the Coos Bay Times a few “digs’’ recently regarding the latter paper's attitude toward the Bel street railway franchise that has been up to the bay peop’e for some time. The Harbor accuses the Times of blocking the interests ol Cooa Bay, or words to that effect, but the Times comes out in its issue ol Saturday February 13, and tells T he San Francisco Chronicle the general public what it thinks of siys that representatives of the newspapers and people who say it is Northwestern Pacific left that city animated by other purposes than last Wednesday with a party ol Ibe common good and welfare of the surveyors to investigate the property people of Coos Bay in the street >1 the railroad.

Referring to President Roosevelt's declaration that desirable results had been thwarted by certain court decisions, he said that the country ought to be thankful lor a president who dared to say so. Justice Gay’ nor further said that when the lower federal courts decided the 8-3 cent gas law in New York unconstitu tional “a danger jioint had been reached,” and that if this decision had been sustained “the confidence of the |>eople in our institutions would have been so iinpaiied that the foundations of the country wntld have been shaken.” He also condemned the frequency < f ex parte injunctions on the application of orporations, some of them issued " judges whose mental and legal attainments would not entitle them to membership in the Portia club.” Discussing public service franchises Justice Gaynor said they were aterely permits to use the streets and do business for the people, not property on which such a corpora tion had a light to earn any divi dent, and he asked why the people should pay anything on a right granted by them; and he said further that “if corporations were declaring dividends beyond what they had a right to expect, they were taking the people’s property without due process ol law, quite as much as the corporations’ property was taken without due process of law when rates were fixed so low that the investor -ould get a fair re turn for his money.” And he re iterated, in so many words, that the federal courts have no right to inter fere in the business affairs of states. —Journal.
