If the Oregonian states the case
without prejudice, Portland ttapds
quite as much in need of cleaning
up 88 does Eugene. In our case it
is the physical man that is suffering
from contagious engendered by im
pure water and unsanitary condi
tions. In the metropolis the moral
health seema to D in serious dan
ger. Registers
One of the best poets of these
days has passed to the great be
yond where color does not count
Among the writers of recent poetry
Paul Lawrence Dunbar has esood
alone, a negro who witb his beauti
fui poems and 8toriets have helped
people the world round to better
and higher lives, and who in every
country 'but his mother country,
America has received his due merit.
The tales he told brought him
many friends and warm admirers in
this country, but too many could
not forget that color does not beget
stupidity nor dullness. All honor
to the man, who in epite of tbe
hindrances of his race has striven to
and made himself such a name.
Elsewhere we print an article
from the Mining World concerning
the Great Homestake Mining Com
pany of Lead. So. Dakota, which is
a most wonderful statement to any
man.
For 20 years this mine has paid
regular dividends, which have
amounted to $14,333.35. in Edi
tion to vast improvements made at
the expense of millions of dollars,
and all worked out of ore that only
averages $3.37 in value per ton.
In Hohemia such ore would not
be considered worth looking at.
We have, great quantities of low
t'rade ore. which must be mined
and handled. Tbe time is corniug
and that too rapidly, when we will
-ee great plants at nvork in the dm
trit t digging out and reducing the
previous metals. It all takes time
and lots ot it.
The fever situation in Eugene is
exceedingly alarming. Tbe ma
jority of the ptople who are sick
seem to have been using city water,
and to it is attributed all the trouble
The Guard in its Stturday iaiue
says: "Investigations show that
nearly all the Lane County cases,
of which there are a few outside of
Eneene, are traceable to this city,"
We are pletaed to note that they
have found out tbat-Cottage Grove
is not suffering from such a con
tamination, although a Eugene
paper did tate that Dr. Mataon,
the bacteriologist was coming here.
He won't find any typhoid bacilli
in the town, if be does come and we
don't thank our Eugene friend for
intimating that they grew here.
Such a condition as exists at Eu
an should Dut us all on our guard
to leave no chance for so terrible a
calamity.
Tbe action of the Soutlern Pa'
i fttahlishinp larms for tbe
tliiv, " ,
investigation of alfalfa growing is
one tbat deserve much commenda
tion. Of course, tbe object is,to
get more people 10 rais'ug n, uu
to make a success of it, that more
cattle maybe Jed, that mere may ue
ziairv nroducts. ete..and inci.

Alfalfa s a wonderful crop wbeu
properly grown, and would do
wonders for the dairying interests
in tbis section if it can be grown
successfully. Every farmer should
use this opportunity o studying up
on tbe question, and get the pam
phlets given out by the railroad.
Seud in your name for this pam
phlet and you will receive all the
other papers that lollow about the
work-canied on.

Iti thermal evolution of policy to
be pursued by forestry official j in
. .! .a
treating with stockmen nesirmg
range privilege:! on reserves, an
important question has already
arisen in Oregou. The supervisor
of tbe Weimha reserve has given
Washington sheepmen lenses on
portions of the reserve in Oregon,
under tbe announcement that the
Washington sheep were wu.t to
feed there during tho summer.
Oregon hbeepmen, protesting
through the Umatilla County
ool (J rower s Association, assert
that much of tbis lauge aeon Jed
Washington as, has been used in tfie
past by them in predatory manner,
and that the action ot the forestry
officials is perpetuating the wr .ng.
The effect ot the present situation
is that Washington men nave a
total of 1 74. ?t!0 sheep on the entire
Wenaha reserve, while the Oregon
meu have a total of but '-5,740.
There is said to be a total of 37,23
Washington sheep on the Uregon
aide, which is more than the Ore
gon people themselves have on
their own side of tho reserve.
Sheep owners paiug taxes in
Umatilla count v insist tlmt they
would use all ot thv Oiegon side of
the range, if not forced cut.
Senator Fulton has been working
with the department to ehatiee t-ueh
a policy, and the cat-e has iceoivcd
itself into a question ot fact. 1 he
department, acting uuder the in
structions of its Wenaha super
visor, proceed on au assumption of
facts which is contradicted by the
sheepmen. The result will be for
mal investigation to learn the real
situation, as ttse Oregon senator in
tends to insist upon fair play, and
will not be content with the mere
statement of offiiials that their
policy is adhering to the former
range practices.
In making ureliminarv arrange
ments for construction of u mile of
good road on either side of tbe Cas
cades, Senator Fultou has been
urged by Judge John H, Scott, of
Salem, president of the Oregon
Good Roads Association, to strive
at all times to keep the average cost
of work down to the lowest figure.
Judge Scott holds that owing to the
sparse settlement in Oregon, such a
demonstration will have value n
proportion to its permanence and
initial cost. Tbe senator has taken
this point up with the government
officials who will have charge, and
hopes tbat the experimental work
will be a lessen in economy, ab well
in the new science of road construc
tion. x
Announcement of the Iuterior
Department that reclamation wok
for some time would be confined to
present projects, because available
funds are pledged, is dejecting for
the Orepon workers in Congress.
Oregon's contribution to the rec
lamation fund being larger than
other states, her people txpecpd
proportionate work,- but have ben
dissapointed. The varied troubles
through which the state has passed
made all efforts in her behalf the
year unusually difficult, and just as
thes-e were being swept aside, the
department expressed the purpose
of entering upon no new w ik
Senator Fultou has been contend
ing with tbe Interior Department
tor a long time that hjs state had
as many practicable projects ror
re-cUmation as any other, and
hould be given money in piopor
tion to its contribution to the fund.
He hopes t to establish bis prin
ciple, so a t buue it observed in
the litur-
Aouilisr View.
Thene eases of glaring violations
of the laws of right conduct, should
not blind the eyes to the doings of
many men and women of vast
wealth. Great wealth in the dis
posal of Helen Gould has proved a
blessing to hosts of needy souls.
Wealth in the bands of (lirard,
Drew, Tulane, Peabody, Cooper,
Drexel, and literally hundreds of
others has been of vast service to
the race. To this spirit fhe coun
try owes the establishment of hun
dreds of libraries, numerous hos
pitals, seminaries, colleges and uni
versities, tenement bouses and
equipmeuts, Y. M C. A. buildings,
homes for the woik of social settle
ments, beautiful parks in the cities,
and hundreds of other applications
to the betterment of the race. It is
but natural to ascribe to the donor
a selfish impulse perhaps it is true
but few would prevail in their
contention against the value to the
public. Tbe tendency of the day is
to look for the t pots on the sun.

Prof. Strange says that the tardi
ness of the pupils in ttie i-chools is
one thnt is a serious luvtiaucu to the
welfare and standing of the school
The present report shows sixty-one
boy aud sixty fwur girls bave been
tardy during the mouth, a total of
l;.r tardicess,8 for just one month.
No wonder the professor is alarmed
over tbe fact. Parents don't give
jour thildren so much to do that
tho caii' l get to school before it
opens, which most ot tlutu give as
lh reason for thnr'lHteness
Theie is a uew old jauitor at the
High School now, Mr McKilben
having resigned, and Mr Howard
who was jauitor lust year being ap
pointed in his place.
A 11 umber of flower gardens Hie
to be stalled immediately on the
wefet tide of tlm High School build
ing, and they are going to make
the yard blossom all over. The
ladies of the Woman's club hae
quite enthused the children and all
aie anxious to get the llowers plant
ed and to hurry them up.
There is almost no sickness in
tho schools at the piesent time,
what little there is, being mostly
from slight attacks of grippe. The
year has been an unusually healthy
one for wbich every parent is very
thankful.

Bl Brick Pla.nl For Spr!rtfflel4
During the past tear numerous
inquiries have l.elm received by our
townsman Chas. Kivett, in regard
to the quality of the soil orouud
Springfield lor the manufjictiiring
of brick. Mr. liiyett has spent
considerable time in looking ovei
l-the different clay beds and in test
ing the quality by burnulg Uout
three we'ektr ago he found a huge
bank that centaine I a bed of the
best dirt for the purpose tbat he
has iter seen in Oregon, located
just one-half miln from Springfield
aud it is tins rpot tbat the new
brick yaid will be located.
Mr. Rivett informed a Ntws re
porter Monday that It J. Huntiug
ton, a representative of the syndi
cate, was in town "over Sunday
talking over the prospects and mak
ing arrangements for the immediate
construction of the plant. The
company consists of San Francisco
capitalists who are said to have
millions at their command. Mr
Huntington stated that $150,0011
would be invested in the Sprirg
field yard. A sidetrack will be
built from the . P. yards to save
the handling and hauling of the
brick.
It is estimated that tbe yard will
employ betwe'eu 75 and 100 men,
and that the average wages paid
for labor will le $2 per day. This
means an increased payroll for
Springfield of nearly $5000 per
month. Springfield News.
