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

had heard a lot of silly nonsence
about the sanctity of the courts.
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

wntld have been shaken.” He also
condemned the frequency < f ex parte

Justice Gaynor said they were

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.
