And nro oonteuted thero to stand.
To make his home in Oregon West.

Oh, foolish man
Why iB it, then,
You onnnot see
Where yon ought to be?
Rut oome oat West
And cannot reat
Till yon go back
Where yonr climates lack
And when too late
Yon see your fate
With frozen toes.
By cold white snow.

Oregon has no electric storm,
Nor blizzards severe to do us harm
No cyclones to kill us all
Or blow us up to get a fall.
(Chorus,
Neither has it sultry nights.
Nor ras.ldogs to run and bits,
Hut pleasant nights for all to sleep
Where yoo esu rest till day doth keep.

While we don't olaiin the Promised land

What yon folks there have not got,

And mud in every street aud lane

And almost everything we get oar share,

Isthmian Prospects.
Although Colombia and the new­
ly formed Republic of Panama have
made considerable noise in the
world of late, intriusically, under
whatever names the fortunes of
revolution have designated, they
have so far counted for little in the
world’s practical affairs.
Mainly
from a physical point of view there
is much good reason for this, and
now from changed political fortunes
there is equall) good promise of a
marvelous change for the better.
From typographical causes, with­
out doubt the Isthmus of Panama
is one of the most undesirable
places to live on the face of the
globe; and except that it offers fa­
cilities for the close linking of the
commercial interacts of two hemi­
spheres it is a fair assumption that
its changiDg autonomy would be of
comparatively slight interest to civ­
ilized nations at the present time.
Nature revels in such strength of
exuberance on tbis narrow strip of
land which connects the two West­
ern continents that civilization finds
no adequate reward along the lines
of usual extension. Opportunities
for intensive effort in agriculture,
commerce or manufacture are al­
most entirely lacking or are largely
negatived by prevailing physical
conditions, which encourage the
most virulent diseases that plague
mankind.
Smallpox, malignant
malaria, yellow fever,— these are all
common, with the appearance now
and again of diseases peculiar to
Asiatic peoples, as the bubonic
plague, leprosy aud cholera.
These lacts have given to the
Isthmus and adjacent territory an
immigrant population peculiar unto
itself.
Underlying all civilized
progress thus1 far in this region is
the element of adventure dependent
upon variant political fortunes, and
the efficacy of schemo and intrigue,
rather than legitimate industrial
and commercial pursuits. Private
ambition has been the dominant
force behind every movement of a
political character, and wherever
men have been gathered together in
considerable communities, absence
of public spirit has made this un­
healthy and undesirable region even
more irksome as an abiding place.
In oither of the cities of consequence,
abominable sanitation addB to the
moral effectivnees of prevailing
disease.
As affairs have now shaped, there
is every assurance that a wonderful
change is about to be wrought.
The building of the Isthmian water­
way through American agency will,
as in Cuba and the Philippines,
create an American atmosphere.
There will follow knowledge of the
American method of doing things,
and appreciation of the benefits that
will accrue therefrom. There was
something done by the Frenchman
when he was digging the inter-
oceanic ditch. Hospitals were erect­
ed for the exclusive treatment of
the laborers in the employ of the
French company, but with these
came extensive graveyards.
The
world is familsar with the assertion
that the Panama railroad cost a hu­
man life for every tie, but it is safe
to say that in the canal work now
in contemplation American intelli­
gence will avoid such fearful mor­
tality. Admiral Walker, president
of the Canal Commission, has given
assurance but recently on that score.
With the inauguration of canal
construction, the people of the Isth­
mus should realize the dawning of
a new era in all matters that pertain
to the political and material welfare
of that region. Except for Colom-
bia, temporarily in the sulks, there
is, without doubt, appreciation that
their future is largely within the
direction of their great North
American neighbor, and that their
faces are finally turned from the
night of wretchedness and misrule
to the dawning promise of modern
achievement, through honesty, thrift
and enterprise.— Evening Telegram.
Save the Elk.
Attention to the ruthless slaugh­
ter of elk in the Olympio peninsula,
is being called none too early, and
it is gratifying to know that drastic
measures are to be taken to sup­
press the evil. While the Order of
Elks has a decided interest in the
preservation of this noble game, it
is unfortunately true that the use of
elk teeth as badges, has stimulated
the wholesale destruction of elk
simply for the sake of the teeth
which could be obtaiued, and for
which fancy prices would be paid.
The Tacoma Lodge of the order is
entitled to commendation in its offer
to not only assist in policing the
Olympic region, but in pledging it­
self to use no more elk teeth as em­
blems of the order, until the slaugh­
ter for the sake of the teeth shall be
stopped. Thin action should receive
the co-operation of all other lodges
of the order, especially in this state.
