G ILSTR AP in a recent article in the Eugene Guard voiced in sible way to supply the demands. m a very able manner a sentiment that has often been expressed by The Sentinel, to the effect that it is a mistake for the Pacific Coast to be longer advertised as a haven of refuge for the financially embarassed and a Mecca for the laborer. Those looking for employ ment are coming rapidly enough without further solicitation. What the country needs is capital to develop the natural resources, to convert the timber into marketable goods, to take the wealth out of the soil. There are opportunities here unequalled anywhere for the capitalist large or small. As rapidly as further capital is invested new employ ment for labor will be developed. For the present, while labor gener ally is employed, positions are pretty generally filled. PROGRESS OF PROHIBITION.
