Though there may l>e one or more of these new county schemes possessing some degree of merit and arc promoted by good faith, it would appear that in the main they are in t entitled to the favorabl«- considera tion of the people at large, and a< a matter of exp«-diti n and good pub lie policy all of them should be de feated . In the first place, the Herald be lieves that the creation of a new county is a matter devolving upon the Legislature and should not be submitted to a vote of the people at large, who cannot possibly have any intelligent idea of the demanti for such proposed new counties, and are, therefore, in no sense competent to vote upon the measures What does the average voter of the north eastern part of the state know about the practicability or wisdom of the clamor of the southwestern portion of the state for the creation ot a new countv? Certainly, in the maj.ni y of cases, he 'would not be able to cast an intelligent vote on the prop osition. * The submission to a vote of the people- of the whole state of these vinous county division schemes, therefore, would seem highly imprac ticable, it r.ot unwise. Moreover, the success of these various division schemes would establish a bad pre cedent. which might tend to retard the healthy growth and reasonable prosperity of many counties of the state. There are d«»ubtlcss counties in Oregon whi« h should be divtdeil into two separate county organizations, but these, the llerald believe:-, should lie taken c.ue ot by the Leg islature and not voted upon by the people of the state at large, who cannot possibly jtulge ot the merits or wisdom ot the prop set! division of a remote section ot the state, ano in which the voters at large car. hav« no reasonable interest. Many «if th«- county schemes up for consideration this Fall are with out question ill -advised, and th« Herald sugg«-sls a negative vote on all county measures as th- most practical remedy for the present county division epidemic. - Albany H raid How to Beat the “Porkers” line« for|trans|x>rting height bctw,een comjxting |xrint.s. The Amt-iican people are not prepared frfr such radical legislation as that which has maintained the prosperity ot French waterways, hut if this suggested ¡tower be conferred uj>on the Inter stat«! Commerce Commission, it will at le*st prohibit the economic phe- m in«.non of railroads carrying freight between given points at'an absolute financial loss. The second suggestion is that the railroads he forbidden to increase a rate when it has once been lowered, where the manifest purpose of the reduction was to destroy waterway comp« tition. This is similar to the system practiced in England, where the railroads are not permitted to raise rates once lowered except on the approval o! the board of trade. In Germany and Belgium, with the states owning the railroads and con trolling the waterways, the railroads are not permitted to carryrertain coarser classes of freight which lend themselves readily to transpoitatio i by boats World’s Work.

City Water in. O Oregon Fir Leonard Bronson, manager of the National Lumber Manufacturers’ Association, with headquarters at Chicago is making a tour of the Pacific coast in the interest of the organization and the lumber indus try. He believes that the opening of tiie Panama canal will he a great thing for Oregon fir, because it will open helds to the Oregon lumber manufacturer from w hich he is now excluded by the high transportation charges.

Commercial bo«lies of this stale are being invited by the Twice-a- Week Spokesman-Review, Spo kane, to express an opinion on the most piomising agricultural devel opment in their own sections and the means used to further the ad vance. An interchange of ideas along these lines will be helpful. This ¡taper has taken an active in terest in the intensive development of the Northwest and is doing much to fui ther it. l b«- agricultuial interests of any community, where agriculture is p issible, aie the most sme <>t «level- opinent of that section, b.•cause 1 his is .in industry th it nev« r wears out but instead is alw ays <m the increase. livery man wiio is interested in the development of t country is in terested in agriculture. Steps should be taken to buikl up this industry in Coos county in a more rapid degree than has been the case in the past. It has been demonstrated, beyond 0 doubt, that there is no more fertile soil anywheie that’ here, and though May Get Redman Home. th re is a quite lapid «levelopment going on at the pi « sent time, yet Dr. J.

The building of the Bring your canal is essentially a Pacific Coast event, opening the Pacific to the Senator Burton, the recognized authority upon waterway transporta tion, who has made a life study, not alone of American, but al -v ot Euro pean rivers an«l harbors, and who led the fight on the last "Pork-Bai - rel” appropriation, has offered two suggestions for the relief of the wat er-ways front unfair railroad compe tition. The first is that the Interstate Commerce Commissi >n shall given the power to fix in in mi 11 in railroad rates where water coriqteli tion exists, in th«1 same manner as they now have the power to deter mine maximum rates. An analo gous system prevails in France commerce of the world, and that where the railroads are compelled to sLoutd l»e In l«i a the largest Ameri can p*ni on Utt* Pacific.

Again, their are many th.tigs w .rth seeing in the West —the Yeii- wsti.ne, th Grand Canyon ot the Colorado, tin Yosemite. Shasta, and a vacation country generally. Sull another strong argument tbit might appea to Congress is the ¡act that San Francisco has, within a radius of 200 miles, fully i,500,0«» people, and it is that nearby population, according to previous records, th it in ikes such affairs successful financially This Exposition is essential v a Western proje«. t and the director-, o: it are urging all friends of th«- move ment to get busy with then con gressmen.
