They are ‘‘easy’ ’ careless, neglectful wasteful, thriftless. Of course there are numerous exceptions, and the proportion o f enterprising, de veloping people is increasing, but not nearly fast enough to keep up with the times. N o wonder when such conditions prevail as this man describes that outsiders point scorn ful nngers at us. The inexplicable wonder is that more homeseekers and opportunity seekers do not rush to this state o f unparalleled and as tonishing opportunities to get rich off the soil.— Portland Journal.

A New York man who for HO years has been the heaviest apple exporter ot the country- says Ore gon can produce the best apples in the world, and that good as Hood River apples are those raised around Ashland are even better. In the Rogue River valley and other parts of Oregon the choicest o f pears and other fruits can also be produced in immense quantities. Besides, he sees, ns well as other outsiders do, what a great dairy and poultry state Oregon could be and ought to be, and wonders at the importation of dairy products and at the almost prohibitive prices of poultry and eggs. Alter noticing the abnorm ally high prices for these products here, he asks: “ Now with such a market as this, with a great and growing city simply clamoring for eggs, butler and milk, do you see anybody in Oregon alive to the chance to make a fortune out of such a condition?’ ’ And he answers: “ No, sir. People move along in tbe same sleepy way. The people are too slow. The mossback must wake up and get busy or go to the w all." Chicago will dump millions o f dollars’ worth ol products here — is indeed doiug so— annually, Jeering Roosevelt. that Oregon can produce cheaper and better than the country from The Times does not believe in which Chicago ohtaius them. This New York man continues with un jeering and hooting at the name of pleasant but needed and wholesome the president of the United States. It does not believe in insulting the truth: American flag nor in waving ted With such land, such a climate, Hags. such market, it is almost a disgrace The president is the nation incar that things here should be in the nated.
