Eugene couiu well afford to pay $50,000 for a new rail road extending say twenty-five miles in any direction. This is because such a road would be sure to traverse considerable undeveloped territory and tend to center the business of the upper Willamette valley in Eugene; furthermore, a second road will make it comparitively easy to secure a third or even a fourth line by making the city a commercial center worth while. The Guard will gladly at any time subscribe $1,000 toward se curing a road down the Siuslaw, or to bring the Carver road up the valley from Corvallis, and makes it a standing offer. If other property owners and businessmen will be correspondingly liberal we believe that Eugene can have a second railroad, and perhaps a third one before the present year is gone. We must realize that this matter of securing railroads, until we have a city here double its present size, will depend solely upon the enterprise of the people in reaching out for them. Foreign capitalists are not coming into Eugene to build railroads at this time unless substantial inducements are extended to them; that they will come here of their own accord is a notion that the people must banish entirely from their minds in the consideration of the railroad question, as well as the folly that a proposition may be secured that in all its details will suit the divergent views of everybody interested. The only thing to do is to act quickly and energetically whenever there seems a rea sonably good opportunity to secure additional transportation facilities, and to regard failure only in the light of an incentive to work harder at the next opportunity, since it serves to empha size the difficult nature of the problem confronting the future of our city. WAR AGAINST CONSUMPTION. ——■■■■ ■ I -*'■ I ■ . !■ ■ I ...................... .. 1 1 1 II—■ history is known. It is a fact no longer disputed that most of the cases of consumption are due solely to infection breathed into the system from the foul air of streets and houses. Every municipality must begin to wage war on the germ. We would not deny the hospitality of the city to the poor suf ferer from the tuberculosis bacillus, but we must prevent the spread of what has been well called the "Great White Scourge." We must end the chances of infection. The laws against expectoration must be enforced and the deadly typhoid-consumption-pendisease fly must be killed. The Guard's position on the railroad question is simply this: We favor taking advantage of every opportunity to secure an other road into Eugene from any direction, believing that when a second line is secured it will be easy to get others. In other words, it will be the beginning of making Eugene a railroad center, which must be brought about in order to build up a real city here. A town with only one railroad n«ver becomes a very important commercial city, as far as we have been able to dis cover. For these reasons, we favor the acceptance of any rea sonable proposition to build the Siuslaw railroad, as well as any offer Mr Carver might make for the extension of his Corvallis line to this city. The thing to do is to go after railroads good and strong, and the first man who puts up a proposition that is made in good faith is the one we should do business with and do it quick.

Mtwert M Some individuals seem to have a highly exaggerated notion of their own value and importance in this world, an estimate often greatly at variance with that held by their contemporaries. Some woman asks half a million to compensate her for a broken heart and the injury suffered by her reputation, while even her most intimate friends must admit that her reputation would not bring fifteen cents even among friends and that nothing less than a seven-ton drop-hammer would ever make any impression upon her heart. As a rule the basis for damages demanded in such cases is entirely imaginary. Even in bona fide cases of mental injury it is rather difficult to estimate the injury in dol died ♦ i lars and cents.
