It is such a grave condition there should be no time wasted in recriminations, but a united effort should be made to secure the rail- road upon the best possible terms. Mr Carver has it in his power to deal a serious blow to Eugene's com mercial prestige, but will no doubt be reasonable if approached in pro per manner and treated In good faith. He has always said that he desired to come to Eugene, and ap parently only awaits proper encour agement to do so, and would doubt be able to arrange matters as to build from Eugene, as well toward this city. This Is certainly the most portant condition that has fronted Eugene for a long time and Is worthy at least of considération by a special meeting of the Commer cial club, if its governing officials do not clearly see their way to act without instructions. m I • rd V ITCHING TORTURES YIELDED TO CUTICURA >w • • • ma that it ( passed eighteen y ion W O O ago; It ha: Jan employ a large faculty, give individual instruction, receive more calls for office help than we can meet.
