Leslie, Tcccntly. Mr. Richard
son is familiar with the advan
tages that obtained for the Mid
dle west with Ue improvement
of deep-water facilities at Galves
ton, Texas, and says that with
deep-water improvements here
l the same benefits would result.
ROAD BUILDING..
The last Oregon legislature
provided for a State Road Com
mission to investigate the feasi
bility of employing convicts on
the public roads. It is under
stood that the resolution passed
authorizing the road commission
provided for a certain specified
road. Now, if it Droves practic
able to employ convicts in the
building of a certain bit of road,
may it not be found practical to
establish a permanent state road
buiiding department?
All classes dsplore the condi
tion of our highways and every
where there seems a demand for
better roads, but comparatively
few of our citizens really take
kindly to road work for some
reason. Of all things proposed
and discussed for the general up
building of this or any state it is
doubtful if any single item is of
anywhere near the importance
that attaches to the road ques
tion. Good roads are a good in
vestment for any people. A
good, passible thoroughfare
facilitates the transportation of
the inland products to market
this is a boon to both producer
and consumer.
Our criminal class must have
bread and meat during their
period of sentence, and why not
compell them to earn their keep?
There . is scarcely any field of
labor that convicts could be set
at that would bring them less in
competition with the average
laborer than in the building of
good and permanent highways
for the state. If there is any
other field for the employment of
convicts where they would be
brought less into competition
with labor as a whole we should
like some one to name it.
The commissioners appointed
are: G. W. Jett, of Baker City,
president; R. A. Harris, Port
land, secretary; W. K. Newell,
Dilley; A. B. Cavender, Browns
viile, and W. J. Shattuck, of
Gresham. It is the duty of this
commission to report to the next
legislature upon tke feasibility of
thus employing convicts and the
citizens of the state should see,
if possible, the report is favorable.

$2 per annum, or 25 per cent discount it "Noteworthy in this COlinec
paid in advan-f ition,"said Mr. Richardson, "is
tne tact mat tne advance in tne
land values would hold good.
The moment there is competition
between deep-water harbors, the
value ot lard in i he vicinity of
and tributmy to these haiboT.s ad
vance. If Portland is yiven a
litep-wntrr c'uann- 1 from the P.i
t ific; to iter docks, competition
leiwet-n big sta-yoing ves-stls
wi!l be on. Rate conspitHcm
would .immediately ensue be
tween the Co.umbia River and
Puget Sound. .
"Le-s than ten years ago peo
pie were burning corn in the
Middle Western States and rais
ing more wheat tlvni could be
marketed. That was hen the
only traffic competition was be
tween tiie lake routes and New
Orleans. The deepeniug of Gal
veston harbor broke the back of
this combinat'on, and two vear
after Galveston had 25 feet of
water the price of wheat raised in
Kansas, and in one year the pro
fit on crops was more than
$6,200,000, which sum was ap
priated by the Federal Govern
ment for the improvement of Gal
vestou harbor. ,
"The benefits to Portland from
the improvement of the Colum
bia river would be indirect, but
very material. The point is that
competition in freight and ship
ping rates will have the effect of
increasing the value of lana all
over the productive districts of
Oregon, Washington, Idaho,
Montana, and for a distance of
500 or a 1000 miles inland. It
is these sections that people will
build up and develop. Portland
can take care of herself, and Port
land interests in this regard do
not count. The object is to de
veiop the vast sections of fine ter
ritory lying in the interior, and
deep-water accomodations wil
certainly have that effect in this
instance, the same as it has in all
others."
An Albany Squad.
For Deeper Channels.
At present there is consider
able agitation regarding a deeper
channel, both in the Columbia
and Willamette rivers, as far
up as Portland, also on the bar
of the Columbia. We fully
realize what this means for the
country at large and sincerely
hope that the dreams of many
inuustrious and enthusiastic
Portlauders may in a measure
come true. The Columbia river
and her bar, and a portion of the
Willamette are the same to the
metropolis that the latter river
alone is to Corvallis.
The people of this section,
backed by the Benton County
Citizens'' League, have yelped
themselves hoarse in the past in
an cffoit to secure a deeper chan
nel on the Upper Willamette in
order that light draught river
boat? could ply here the year
around but all in vain. Never
theless, we would like to see
what Portlanders plan in the
pitent instance come to pass, as
we realize that "a fulfillment of
tnese plans would benefit us, al
though in the past Portland peo
ple never would assist the people
in the valley in their efiorts to
open up .the Willamette where it
winds through the great valley of
Uregon. .
"With a deep-water channel
between Pot thud and the Pacific
Ocean, Oregon tnd the interior
country tributaiv m the Colum
bia River will ex:-. -. unce a per
manent rise in land values mil
lions of dollars more than the cost
of river improvement would be,"
said Tom Richardson, secretary
.of the Oregon Development
In certain circles about Cor
vallis the idea that Albany
would have no football squad has
prevailed.' It seems things are
ordained differently in Albany
as the following from Friday'
Herald will show:
A squad of college students
assembled on the college campus
last evening for the first hour of
football practice, and great in
terest was shown in the game and
the promised sport. Charles
Stewart is the coach, and while
he has no heavy material, " such
as . played in the college team
last year and the past two or
tnree seasons, ne nas a promis
ing bunch of players, and hopes
to turn out a good team compos
ed entirely of bona fide students
to represent Albany college on
the gridiron the coming season.
Charles Monteith has been
selected as captain of the team
and a suitable manager will be
chosen soon. Arrangements for
games are being made with the
Corvallis, Eugene and Salem
high schools for games, and also
with the H. M. A. and the N.
R. A., both pt Portland. Those
mentioned for positions on the
learn are: M. Iyennan', ceuter;
M. . Rogoway and Stalnaker,,
guards; Stevens and R. Stewart,
tackle; Wallace, Simpson and
Curran, ends; Fortmiller, quarter
back; Crews and Schultz, half
backs; Monteith, fullback.

THE DANGER TO THE CHILD
Mav be real or the snake may be a harm
less one, but there is danger that menaces
every child's life if the mother is defi
cient in womanly health and functional
vital it.v.
Thousands of women have borne their
sufferings and kept their troubles to
themselves from motives of delicacy and
fen.hle childhood has naid for it.
Dr. Fierce, forty years ago, consulted
Nature, and found that she had provided
romedles in abundance for the cure of
woman's peculiar ailments and weak
nesses. He found that non-alcoholic
glyceric extracts of Golden Seal root,
Blue Cohosh root, Unicorn root, Black
Cohosh root and Lady's Slipper root,
combined m just tne rignt proportions,
cave such surprising results mat tnis
comnound soon became a standard fa
vorite of his in the treatment of such
cases. In a little time the dmnnd for it
became so great that he determined to
put it up and provide for its general sale
so that the multitudes needing it could
rear i v sunn v themselves.
This is now known all over the civil
ized world as Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre
scription, and its unparalleled record of
hundreds of thousands of cures, in the
last forty years, justifies all that can be
said of it.
It is non-alcoholic, non-narcotic, it is
safe and reliable for any woman, of any
age ana in any conuiuuii, lo use.
T)r. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets only one
or two a dav will" reeulate and cleanse
and invigorate a foul, bad Stomach, tor
pid Liiver, or siuggisn ioweis.

Cadet Rooster.
Lieut. Quinlan has just con
pleted the task of organizing the
military department for the year
'05-06 The plan ot organization
has been different from those of
previous years. In contrast to
the former way of assigning the
cadets directly to a company, the
plan of this year has been to'
have all men drilled in the "Set
ting up" exercises before the
companies were organized. Sat
isfactory work having been done
along this line, the organization
was then perfected and the men
assigned Jo companies. The fol
lowing is a list of officers and
non-commissioned officers:

For nearly four years I suffered
from ovarian troubles. The doc
tor insisted on an operation as the
only way to get well. 1,. however,
strongly objected to an operation.
My husband felt disheartened as
well as I, for home with a sick
woman is a disconsolate place at
best. A friendly druggist advised
him to get a bottle of Wine of
Cardui for me to try, and he did so.
I began to improve in a few days and
my recovery was very rapid. With
in eighteen weeks I was another

Incipient consumption is curefl by

hold out ialse hopes to consumptives by
claiming that it will cure that dread dis
ease in the advanced stages; but if the
