If two or three small weeklies of the state should keep up such a constant, disgusting ard use less bickering as dets the Ore gonian. Journal and Telegram over their circulation, news, ad vertising patronage, etc., they would be called all the opprobri ous names within the vocabulary of the city editor. Of what ben efit is this contemptible tirade of abuse to the readers of the pa pers mentioned? Who cares if the Oregonian comes out in a coat of many colors? or if the Journal is a follower of Hearst ? or that the Telegram has a few inches more advertising patron age than the Journal? One would imagine that they are a set of braggadocio school kids, or old men in their dotage. Time is too precious to spend in such a manner, space too val uable to be wasted in such a way. Beside this it smatters of abso lute insanity to be for years quar reling over matters of so small moment to the majority of read ers. It certainly would show- more sense to put in more time on helpfnl editorials, —such as all three know how to write. There is room for all, and some to spare. Better then come down to common sense and leave these petty prejudices and jeal ousies to those who know no bet ter. POOR BOYS WHO HAVE BECOME FAMOUS. Thinking over the names of men w ho have become famous in history we find that the majority were of lowly origin. Commenc ing with Abraham about 2CC0 years before Christ follows the names of Joseph. Moses, David, Samuel and a host of old and new testament characters. Christ too was of lowly origin yet his name has become the most fa mous in all history. Then too we have the names of Banyan, the village tinker, Stephenson, Franklin, Chase, Lincoln, and others too numerous to mention who have risen from the lowest to the highest. But you must ever keep in mind that these men, as boys, believed in ‘‘doing things” not ‘‘dream them all day long.” and so must the boys of today “do things” if they would achieve success. Success is the price of persistent effort and comes not without it. LETS TALK IT OVER. Isn’t it about time for the cit izens of Gresham to be doing something toward securing a city water system? Someone has said that the town would have to be bonded, that taxes would increase, that the present way was good enough. Yes, the town will have to be bonded, probably for $10,(MX) to $15,000, that is no reason why the city should be taxed to pay it. Tne system can be made self-support ing and pay off the principal too. Why delay this work? We can have no sewers until a water system is installed, consequently improvement is retarded. Property values kept down, disastrous results from disease is being constantly invited, and Subscription. at <«re.*hani. Oregon. people who would like to locate here are forced to go to a more up-to-date town because of a lack of modern conveniences. This step should not and cannot consistently be defferred any longer. Hence we hope that our town council will give this matter the careful consideration it merits. Again there comes the cry of more cars. In the fight between the Harriman and Hill interests the consumer has been lost sight of. Eastern Oregon and Washington are suffering from a fuel famine without hopes of im mediate relief. Southern Ore gon can ship no lumber because of failure to secure cars yet it is said hundreds of empty cars are being held by both companies in an effort to force the other to their terms. As usual, the pub lic is the scapegoat and are made to suffer at the hands of the cor porations who. because of free land grants and other forms of intolerable graft, have become multimillionaires. How long will it be until the people will demand government ownership of all public utilities? At the above rate it will not be long. In proclaiming Thursday, No vember 29. 1906. as a national holiday and time of thanksgiv ing President Roosevelt evident ly realizes that, as a nation, we have mnch to be thankful for. As an individual, what have you to be thankful for? This prob lem should be, and is, of great importance to every one of us, for we are not dependent upon self alone. We are forced to de pend upon many others for ne cessities as well as luxuries. So many of us are prone to think that the world owes ue a living, and what we receive take it as our due rather than with thanks. Gratitude is a needed factor in the makeup of every human be ing. Cultivate it. and use it. for by so doing you will make the world happier and better for your having been a part of it. A mother can do her girl no greater wrong than that of neg lect in domestic training. It is a shame and a disgrace to Amer ican motherhood to see how- little interest is taken in the training of our girls in the care of the home. Not one girl in ten, at the age of sixteen, knows how to prepare a decent meal. Not one in five even know how to take care of the home as it should be. Too much time is given to social and other duties. It is no wonder that dyspepsia and its attendant ills have be come a national disease and will become more so unless the mat ter is remedied. A little of the old time train- iug of the girl, on the part of the mother, is badly needed, and we hope our folk will see to it that it is forthcoming at once. A recent visitor to Jackson county has published a descrip tive letter in which he says, among other things, that in Ash land. where the people are about evenly divided on the saloon question, the saloons are trying to curry favor.
