Don't fume and fret,
Don't squirm and sweat,
And ifft all In a tanxle;
Don't rip and Icar,
And dance and swear,
And fill the air with JhhkIc
Don't Krtimp aud Krowl,
Dtm't scold and scowl,
Don't Ki't all In a muddle;
Don't wall and weep,
And make a deep
And nesnliulsllc puddle.
Keep steady, boy.
There's much of Joy
And pleasniitnens awaits you;
Let In the sun
It's ten to one
It's Just yourself who hates you.

SHORT-SIGHTED CAPITAL.
German financial interests are being tempted to invest in
China, and a preliminary arrangement has been made for a loan
of $18,000,000 to the Chinese government for railway con
struction. Doubtless China is a fine field for the expenditure of such
a large amount of money, and unquestionably the investors have
arranged for heavy interest. But the Sacramento Union wants
to know why these people should go to China for their invest
ments, and at the same time declares that they are pursuing a
short-sighted policy in doing so. That territory offers small
returns in freight business for many years to come, when here
in the United States the construction for the main lines would
double the value of the subsidiary properties in the short period
of ten years.
Main-line railways now cover the surface of the country in
all directions, and Eastern Oregon and a few other western
fields alone offer any promise of profitable returns in that di
rection; but smaller lines to connect with the trunk roads and
navigable water bringing the neighboring communities into
close touch with the through route, are assured of good busi
ness from the day they run their first train. This has been the
exporionce everywhere.
It has even been found by the great railways that to operate
an auxiliary passenger service on part of a main line, making
it something in the nature of a feeder for itself, proves profit
able, as In tho running of gasoline motor cars between thriving
towns. Eloctrio railways into the country have demonstrated
the value of the feeder system everywhere.
Would it not bo better to spend $15,000,000, then, in sub
sldiary lines in a civilized country, than to risk the same money
in an untried foreign land, where the prejudice against railways
has several timos led to tearing up many miles of track?
This matter of building a railroad from Eugene to Siuslaw
tide-water is too important to the city's future to allow any
number of failures to discourage our efforts. No other enter,
prlso should be pursued with the persistent energy that this one
calls for. Possibly after nineay nine failures, the hundredth
effort will succeed and Eugene and all Lane county will profit
by it in tho end.
And here's another thing that does not indicate an early ad
Journmcnt of congress. In accepting two suits of hot weather
clothes, made of Goorgia cotton linen, "Sunny Jim" said he was
mighty glad to get them, as he expected to bo in Washington
the greator part of the summer.
Isn't the female orator who says. "Adam Whs the first man
to shield himself behind a woman's skirt'' a little shy on her bib
lical history? As we romembcr reading it in our Sunday School
days, Mrs. Adam didn't have any skirt until after that shielding
stunt had boon pulled off.
Artor the hoboes succeed in getting Uncle Snm to construct
a national highway from Washington to San Francisco, they'll
arrange to have free breweries, distilleries and lunch joints not
more than a milo apart thereon.
A London committee, which has been looking into the opcr
ations of our beef trust, says the trade methods of the trust arc
superior to those prevailing in England. If, gobbling methods
will also be found world-beaters.
This more daylight league, which wants to start things two
hours earher in the morning, will have to put a kibosh on the
midnight league now in the field before it can win.
The Odd Fellow, w.ll come to Eugene next year. They
would indeed be queer fellow, to turn down an offer of the bo,,
pitality of tho queen city of the Willamette valley.
Not being accustomed to handling glnss. though some of its
member, are said to live in house, of ft. the senate did some
smashing in that schedule of the tin iff bill.

What are laws and ordinances for,
anvwav, if they are not enforced?
Is intemperance the only crime
which can he prosecuted?. Our au
thorities keep busy on this one line,
although there Is no more danger to
the innocent ones in this than in
dangers mentioned here.
How about I he milk and meat In
spection? I read of some ordinance
having been adopted, but Is It en
forced?
The writer was rebuked last year
for suggesting hygienic measures. I
don't want to force myself ujkih the
public, but I understand the duties
of a cllizen such, that he comes out
openly If he sees lawlessness and
abuses.
As said before, let us apply the
"Eugene way to these matters. We
have given a great example In pub
lic improvements: let us lead also
in the enforcement of such laws,
which in their evasion may hurt the
innocent more than the guilty one.
Hy the way, the speed ordinance
for automobiles needs enforcement.
Do not let ua wait until the unex
pected happens, but "take time by the
forelock."
Fellow citizens, see that the au
thorities act and lend them your sup
port by dutiful vigilance. This is
for the sake of the poor and the rich,
the weak and the strong.
Let us act one for all. all for one.

Seattle and North Yakima, on the
trip, they were impressed with the
number of well-paved streets in com
parison with the thoroughfares of
Portland. In these three cities much
good paving has been laid within the
last three years, and the excursion
ists were shown over these pave
ments In a manner which brought
home to them the shortcomings of
their own city.
It is admitted that Portland has a
good many improved streets, but the
neglect shown on streets adjoining
these well-paved thoroughfares needs
remedying, aa the travel nearly ail
favors the hard pavements; and this
subjects the improved streets to un
due wear, a? well as to mud
trailed in from the old-style maca
dam surfaces. Improvement by dis
tricts w'ili therefore be urged here
after, so that whole sections of the
city may be rendered fit for travel
at all 'times of the year.
