THE NORTHWEST. "In setting Portland apart as the central point of the general agency of the Northwest - and making it entirely separate from the San Francisco office," said? weeks f Kat tvs.ihai rrW General Agent R.1 W Holder, of the Chicago North-Western, who has just ; arrived and taken charge of the Portland office, vice W. A. Cox, who has accept ed the general agency of the Western Maryland road, "The Chicago North-Western Company recognizes that the Pacific North west has outgrown the point of being subsidiary upon the field of which San Francisco has here tofore been the official center. "The Chicago North-Western, as do all of the other big railroad companies fully realize the great importance of the Northwest field, that it has a wonderlul future in prospect, and that the competition in service is becom ing more pronounced every day. Ail the Eastern roads seem to have taken up with the idea o: encouraging toarist travel to visi the Northwest, and are sending out thousands of dollars' wort of literature every month, setting forth the scenic, climatic and other natural advantages and at tractions along their respective lines, with this object in view." There are indications of greater activity than ever in developing the great territory of the North west. It is noticeable that every endeavor is made to induce cap ital to come from abroad for in vestment. This is all right and there is neither reason nor sense in railing against this mode o: 1 , procedure. still, one cannot avoid wondering in many in stances why it is that local cap ital is so wary in the matter of investment in our home-state de velopment. A little more self help, gentlemen, and things wil move still livelier. As the above quotation indicates, Portland is growing and the entire country is developing, but it is mostly because outside capital is begin ning to look this way. same, and as warm as any Febrn ary since 1898.

It would be refreshing to see a man of so much heart and brain and good horse sense in the executive chair of that grand state. We hail with pleasure the bare suggestion that he may be made governor of Oregon and hope that every one of our Oregon subscribers will come up smiling and vote for him both at the primaries and the final election. ' Commenting further on the Doctor's candidacy, this paper adds: Dr. James Withycombe for governor of Oregon. We second the motion and would like to see the election made unanimous. If Oregon ever gets as good a man as Dr. Withycombe for governor, every farmer and . stockman in the state will be entitled to fel icitations.
