SLOW TRAINS.
"A slow train through Arkan
sas" is a saw common to all
of us and the book itself has
held the interest of many
readers. Slow trains in Oregon
furnishes food for reflection
nearly every day in the year for
Oregonians who need something
to think about. It is claimed
that the service is getting better
than it was, but we are inclined
to be pessimistic on this count.
Tho declaration is made that
tV-.(. improvement in the service
is recent. Again we are in
clined to be doubtful, as we find
none of our acquaintances to
have noted any improvement so
far as schedule time is concern
ed.
We have in Oregon a railroad
commission and hope that no
mistake, has been made in the
of this body. In the
event it is proved that such i
commission is for the best in
terests of the Oregon public, it
may be proper to voice an ad
ditional hope that time will
prove that fearless and efficient
men constitute the personnel of
the commission. It is a self
evident fact that there is work for
a railroad commission of stamina
in Oregon. The commission
plans for an early investigation
tho numerous complaints that
are becoming noisy in certain
sections and will meet in Salem
the matter in its
various phases.
It is possible that increased
traffic of every description over
the railroad lines in the state is
direct evidence that there are
things doing. While very ex
asperating and inconveniencing,
the present train service may
denote a better general condition
than has been the rule in the
past. At the conclusion of the
session of the railroad commis
sion we may secure 'more light
on the subject- But be the
conditions as they may the rail
road compaines should be up and
doing and ready to meet them-
AFTER WEARY MONTHS.
Sufferings of W. O. Trine
Ended Funeral Sunday.
W. 0. Trine, familarly known
among Oregon athletes as ' 'Dad, ' '
for the past four years physical
director and trainer at the Ore
gon Agricultural college, died of
cancer at his home in Corvallis
at 7 o'clock Saturday evening,
after many months of intense
suffering borne with the most re
markable courage. Brief services
were held at the residence at 9:
a. m. Sunday cond ucted by Rev.
G-H-Feese, after which the re
mains were taken to Eugene for
interment.
Mr.' Trine was a very popular
man ot OAC. and his death is
vtiilplv mnnrnpil. Hfl was one of
tSe best-known men in the state
among: athletes.
"Dad" Trine had coached
athletic teams in nearly all the
colleges in the valley, among
them being Monmouth, Willam
ette, Pacific University and the
Agricultural college. He was
one of the oldest trainers in Ore
gon. Before he became a trainer
lie ran professional foot races,
and had a record of 10 seconds
for 160 yards. At one race he
was credited witn aomg me j.uuj
yards in 9 4-5 seconds. His
record for the-220-yard dash was
22 seconds.
In 1905 Trine coached the
Multnomah track team, and al
ways assisted the chib team
whenever opportunity offered.
His friends say he had done as
much for Oregon athletics as any
other man in the state, and he
had phenomenal success at
Corvallis.
His death was not unexpected
by his friends, who have marvel
ed at his wonderful grit while
suffering from the cancer.
He I
had gone ahead with his
work I
while in great physical , pain and
worked up to the last minute.
He was hooked in the jaw
two years ago by a cow, wnicn
caused a growth on a bone. He
had one side of his jaw removed,
but relief was only temporary,
and he declined from a man of
great strength to a mere shadow.
It is said that only his strong
constitution and grit Kept mm
alive.
Trine was born in Oregon
about 4o yerrs ago. He is sur
vived by a wife and two little
children all of whom were with
him at the end. The deep sym
pathy of the community is ex
tended the young widow and her
ittle ones in their great bereave- j
ment.
Don't Laugh.
Don't laugh at a boy who mag
nifies his place. You may see
him coining from the postoffice
with a big bundle of his employ
er'sletters, whichhe displayswith
as much pride as though they
were his own, says an exchange
with much truth. He feels im
portant and looks it, but he is
proud of his place. He is attend-
-1 TT 1 ! A
mg to Business, tie lines to
have the world know that he
is at work for a busy concern.
The boy who says "we" identi
fies himself with the concern.
Its interests are his. He sticks
up for its credit and reputation.
He taken pleasure m his work
and hopes to say "we" in ear
nest. The boy will reap what he
sows if he keeps his grit and
sticks to his job. You may take
off your hat to him as one of the
future solid men of the town,
Let his employer do the right
thing by him. Check him kind'
ly if he shows signs of being; too
big for his place, counsel him as
to his habits and associates, and
occasionally show him "a pleasant
prospect of advancement. A
little pride does an honest boy a
heap of good. Good luck to the
boy who says "we."

- Prominent among the innumera
ble freaks of nature is the Balanced
rock, situated in the heart of the
Bocky mountains. This mass weighs
about 600 tons and is poised, slight
ly tilted, oh a base perhaps five feet
across. The local inhabitant will
gravely add when tourists are about
that it turns completely around
every twenty-four hours. This
