TRADE NOT AFFECTED.
tit-
The action of trie mill-work
rs ha not greatly affected trade
on the coast so far. The lum
bering interests are among the
largest of the great West and
are of particular importance in
Oregon- For the mills of this
state to close would be almost a
alamity.
Thousands upon thousands of
men follow logging and mill'
working in Oregon for a liveli
hood and times and conditions of
recent years have been very fav
orable for these men. But it
would almost seem that the mass
es of men eaniot stand prosper
ity, and with a little money
ahead they become so independ
ent of present c mditions and fu
ture possibilities of a "rainy
day" that they get mutinous.
Nor is this all there is, it
seems, a leader in every labor
organization and in . order for
him to impress his importance
upon those whom he is supposed
to guide, in other words, to
"earn his money," it is thought
necessary at stated intervals
that a strike be ordered. So Mr.
Boss of the crew orders a strike
no matter wnat his men are re
ceiving for their services. Then
comes trouble for everybody
possibly hard times.
The recent stand of the" mill
workers in Portland, and along
the Columbia river has not re
sulted disastrously nor so far in
any unfavorable fftcted
the lumber tradei and it is a
wonder. The prospects for log-
ginsr and sawmilling for the sum
mar were never in the past any
brighter than now.
Aside from our local demand,
which is greater than ever be
f ore, we have a larger export
trad 3. Then, too, the San Fran
cisco disaster of a year ago creat
ed a great demand for lumber
The cities of Southern California
are also making greater and
greater demands upon the for
ests of Oregon and Washington.
There is a splendid future for the
loggers and mill-workers of the
Pacific Northwest if they do not
allow some addte-pated, flannel
mouthed reprobate to lead them
into action to their own sorrow
and the regret of others.

Why Not Use Electric Lights?
Stop scratching matches on 3 our wall.
Those streaky match scratches look
mighty bad on any wall. Bnt as long m
you continue to use gas or oil you've got
to use matches.
The "matchless light" is the electric
light, a simple twist of the wrist does it.
We are improving and perfecting our
lighting service in this city and can givs
better service for less money than ever
in the history of the city.
The cost of wiring has been reduced
until it is within reach of all.
