According to the Oregonum the population ol the State ot Oregon lias increased since January t. 1S92, a period of fourteen months, over 44,000. This is said to be the heiviest increase during a like period, in the history of the state. In June 1900, Oregon's population of 413,356, in figuring the natural increase of syi per cent, and adding the immigration for the nineteen months from June 1900 to Jan. t, 1902, which was probably 15,000, it is estimated that the present population of the state is 510,000. This is a remarkably good showing. It shows that Oregon is now thor oughly introduced in the east. For years people of the middle states were little acquainted with Oregon, in tact had little knowledge of the Pacific coast, and for years the im migration, especially to Oregon, has been comparatively few. At the present time through the efforts of railroad, realestate men and boards of trade literature, not fiction but facts, has been circu lated east. Today our state is re ceiving a goodly proportion of the easterners. They are scattering from one end of the state to the other, engaging in various occupa tions, bound to be to their gain and to the state's. Lane count has long been recognized as one of ihe best, most productive, and wealth iest counties in the state, and naturally is receiving its propor tion of the immigration. Accord ing to the Oregonian's report Lane county ranks third in number. Multnomah heads the list with 16 000 immigrants to her credit. Then comes Clackamas county with 2500, Lane follows with 2200, Much Interwt vk taken In tlie city election lat Momtay. Two ticket w-re Ih the !Md. the "CM mm Ticket", Hettded by ex-Mayor II. K.

The resolution introduced by Senator Kuykendall at the couuty .. convention last Saturday, recom mending to the next convention that the names of those desiring to be come delegates to the state or con gressional convention shall be on file with the chairman of the county ceutral committee prior to the date of convention, recommended by at least two republicans, and that the printed ticket placed before the con vention shall incorporate the names of those who have thus been recom mended and no others, is certainly a good one and a move in the right direction. For years the county convention has been flooded with tickets short, long and medium, while those who have won out by this system are naturally pleased, the system is wrong in the pri maries. A ticket composed of a liberal number of names should be presented to the convention and "short" tickets left out. A man that is not willing to take his chance on a proposition of this kind is not fit to represent his county in conven tion. The resolution adopted last I J l' Tavinr.

LODGU J.0TUS- Saturday, if religiously followed, will do away with much of the clash and bitter feeling that al ways exists at such times, and that should not exist. It may be more difficult to be fair and honest in politics, than in other vocations, but it should not be, and those who talk purity of the ballot, should encourage every move cal calated to bring about such a con dition, A particular reason why this resolution should be followed is that it gives small precincts a fair chance to send delegates to the district and state conventions. It is supposed that our form -of gov ernment does not legislate in any manner against the weak, because of weakness. In the past, outside precincts have had unjust represen tation by reason of their small delegations and inability to organ ize, while the larger places, like Eugene for instance, being on the J W Currin " " 1 m Water receipts for Slarch 142 m. w.

The boys of this city are follow ing a very silly and dangerous practice that of fooling around the railroad, jumping on and off of cars while in motion. A number of the young lads, sotae of them not over 7 or 8 years old have the habit of going to the rear of the freight trains and unawares to the railroad employes, jlay "train", by boarding the cars and stealing rides up and down the yards.
