In- creased industrial activity is indicat ed by the reports from some of the large manufacturing companies In the East covering the month of Jan uary. From all sources the word Is given out that the Jgnuary volume of business was larger by far than that of December, and It Is conceded that It is getting better all the time. From these straws it Is argued that good times are again on the way, and will be with ub with . the opening of spring. Confidence Is already estab lished, and all that Is to'be done now is to keep at It until everybody and his hired man is busy. There Is a difference of opinion be tween the railroad telegraphers and the railroad managers about the en forcement of the law which prohibits working the former more than nine hours a Jay after March 4. The lat ter wants the Interstate commerce commission to order a suspension of the law, but the commissioners do not think they have the authority, even had they the desire. Cards are out for the next catch-as-catch-can International mtarlmonial bout, the principals to be a daugh ter of T. P. Shonts, who got cold feet on the Panama canal job, and the Duke of Chaulnes, who lives in France, where titles are supposed not to be recognized. Time will be called at noon on the 15th Inst, at New York city, of course. A brother of the count-that-Gladys-bought scyys this Is a great country, and we have no doubt he would say it was the greatest ever if he could sell a share in his counship for five million good American plunks. He has a wife, however, and she might not consent to the usual method In such cases. A fellow named Donald G. Ross is sending out from New York city a lot of press stuff booming W. L. Douglas, of Massachusetts, ui pres ident on the Democratic ticket. This may simply mean another ad for the famous $3 shoes. The Philippine delegation of two to the Chicago convention is solid for Taft, and nobody has accused him of using official machinery to get them. But the electoral votes of the Phil ippines will not befor Taft, and thai Is no guess. . A leader of Paris fashions saye 130,000 a year Is the very lowest sum that a woman of that town can be well dressed for. And at that, we have heard that Parisian women of fashion are only half dressed at night. "Bankers beginning to solicit bor rowers" reads a headline over an cp tlmlstic financial article. Maybe so, but they know that the men solicited have plenty of good colateral to se cure any loans they negotiate. The man who puts his good money on tips on the stock market and on horse races will tell you without a smile what suckers he thinks the backers of expeditions after hidden treasure are. Cigarette smoking probably re ceives, more general condemnation than any one of the minor vices, yet the consumption of cigarettes in creases yearly. Now, what's the an swer? Mrs. Fairbanks has long been ac tive and prominent in the woman suf frage movement, and now Mrs. Taft has recently joined It. Yep, this is presidential year. Was the Lewis Stuyvesant Clian ler boom put on the blink by the .1 nanclal squeeze, or lias It only swap ped Its brass band for gumshoes? THE Ql KEN' CITY fGresham. Or.. Herald.) Judging from the appearance of the Eugene Dally Guard, which is a wel come addition to our exchange list, we should say that Eugene certain ly has a Hunt to call herself the queen city of the Willamette. The Eugene Dally Guard Is one ot tne most prosperous dallies In the state, and certainly speaks well for the pro gress and sound sense of fcugene bus iness men. MR. VAN III SEX SATISI IEI) (Pacific Outlook. 1 This week the fitness and compe tency of Fish Warden Van Dusen U again questioned, in this case by the governor himself. Chnmberlnln holds that the Incumbent is hampered in the performance of his duth's by per sonal prejudices and by a tendency toward favoritism, and that he u.ies not realize the importance of the closed season. Along with a lit of others in the state, the governor would like to see the masl-r warden among the "has-beens'' and Ills suc cessor appointed. Judging from the j "kicks" that have come In from va- nuus fians ui ine Fiaie ii w.im.t n. that the only person who K entirely satisfied with the service of Mr. Van DuBen Is Mr. Van Dusen.

For prompt service phone Black 3S11 Po.Monoo 57 lllfh street tf THE PEOPLE'S CHECK OX THI'I POLITICIAN I (Beaver State Herald.) j Recent uterances of the Oregonlan. Eugene Register. Dalles Optimist and a rew a very few other old-time party organs, as well as State Senator Hodson and other would-be leaders, of the G. O. P., would lead one to believe that the direct primary law, I the Initiative and referendum n..rt ! especially Statement No. 1, are the biggest lemons ever handed Oregon's voter:!. We are willing to admit that they are very hard and very, very bitter pills for the politicians to swallow. In view of so oft recurring bargains and sales at inflated prices, it is not surprising that the parent (the voter) sought to curtail the privileges of its degenerate child (the legislature) especially when that child so willfully and persistently continued to defy the will of the parent and so afteii prove recreant to its trust. What would happen if the politician was again given his way? Precisely what happened before a record of which every citizen of Oregon should feel heartily ashamed. Every Intelligent friend of the new laws admit they have some defects, but that is no reason why they should be cast aside. The sensible thing to do Is to amend the laws so as to make them more efficient and less trouble some, but let this be done by the friends of fanr play and not by dyed-in-the-wool politicians. STATEMENT XO. .1 (Cottage Grove Western Oregon.) Any man who wants to try his pop ularity can get on the primary ticket and the electors of bis party will see that some candidate goes on the state ticket. This is true of the Democrat ic party as well as the Republican. Then Statement No. 1 was written to compel legislators to vote for the people's choice. Mind people's is written here, not party. It is just us absurd for legislators to refuse to ratify the people's choice of United States senator as it would be for the same men to refuse to count in the candidate for governor whom the vot ers by their majority had chosen, but it has been noted that legislators do absurd things. The subscribing to Statement No. 1 gives notice to elec tors whom they can expect to carry out their will. A refusal to sign In dicates that the candidate may or may not respect the will of the con stituents of the state. Individual voters need some assurance that they will not be defrauded In this choice of senator. There may be better plans that Statement No. 1, but with our rather weak primary law nono have yet been suggested. If it is desirable to elect senators by popular vote, then some plan like the Oregon law must be employed until such time as the constitution of the United States is amended so as to permlt an election by popular vote. LET THE MAJORITY RULE (Albany Herald. Rep.) The matter of a legislative member voting for his party s choice as deaig nated In the primary, has nothing to do with the intent and purpose of the question of electing United States senators by popular choice of the peo ple. If the majority of the voters of Oregon are Republican from princi ple, rather than for sirails, the popu lar choice of the voters of this state In the June primaries will be a Re publican candidate. If not then the majority of the voters of the state are in favor of a Democratic United States senator. If the latter Is the condition in this state, some set of po litical pirates are responsible for such a state of affairs, and the soon er recognized the sooner mended. 'KOPLE'S CHOICE (Portland Journal.) The Dalles Chronicle, after run ning for a few weeks as a morning paper, has changed back to an even ing paper, saying that "this change is made after consulting a majority of the patrons, who expressed the opin ion that they preferred an evening paper." This Is In the case In all places, especially on this side of the continent. NOTICE Notice is hereby given that I have made and filed with the city recorder ballot titles for the amendments to the city, charter proposed by Initia tive petitions and to be voted on at the city election to be held April 6. 1908, In reference to water bonds and water works, and prohibiting ceme teries and burials within the city lim its. Any person dissatisfied with said ballot titles may appeal to the circuit court from my action as provided by law. S. D. ALLEN, City Attorney. Eugene.
