1IKHT AT KVKXIXG.
The day is Ions andtrylng. and lioavy Is the heat; and often I
am BlKhiiiK, while iliuKKinK weary feet. The sun is burning o'er !
me; there is no grateful Khaile; the rows stretch out before me,
that I must hoe and spade, tint when the nun has wendod his path-!
way to the west, my weary toll is ended, and evening brings me
rest. Then comes the kind word spoken by loved ones at the door;
then conies the sleep unbroken, until the night Is o'er; then comes
tho tuneful jmssngo of restful twilight hours; then conies the mystic :
message of winds among the flowers. The day may treat me mean- j
ly, and rob my life of zest; but evening comes'Berenely, and even- !
ins brings mo rest. And life Is but a longer and sadder summer '
day; tho weary heat is stronger, uud rockier the way; the watch-
word is "Endeavor," and till the day is done tho laborer may never !
escape tho glaring sun. And thus the harsh world grinds him against
its rugged breast, till starlit evening finds him and evening brings
him rest.

GREAT POPULAR MOVEMENT.
That was a great outpouring of the people yesterday to
celebrate tho beginning of work on Eugene's railroad to the
, sea. Springfield sent a large and enthusiastic delegation, and
evinced lively interest in the enterprise. This was a most com
mendable spirit and shows that the people of both towns real
ize at last that their interests are common; that they must both
grow together and combine their energies and capital in the
development of the resources of Lane county.
In this particular railroad movement every resident of the
entire upper Willamette valley is directly concerned. A railroad
to the sea will increase the value of every piece of city prop
erty and every acre of farm land in Lane county. It will open Up
undeveloped country, start new mills and add millions of dol
lars to the taxable property of the county. More than this it will
reduce freight rates on exports and imports alike, and make it
possible to establish factories with their attendant payrolls.
John F. Stevens, the great railroad engineer, until rec
ently manager of the Hill lines in the Northwest, told a dele
gation of Eugene men, including the editor of this paper, at
a conference in his office, a few weeks ago that the construe-1
tion of a railroad to tho coast from Eugene would reduce freight!
rates in the Willamette valley 50 per cent. This he explained
was the reaso'n Why the' Harriman people refused to .build to the
coast and opposed the efforts of other companies in that direc-:
tion. Their long haul overland from Portland to San Francisco
was a source of great revenue that they would not relinquish
until forted to act. Mr. Stevens went further than this, when he
deolared that, after having traveled over the entire world, he
considered the Willamette Valley and its surrounding foothills,
4000 square miles in extcut, susceptible of the greatest devel
opment of any territory ho had ever visited. Railroad building, he
asserted, was its greatest need.
It is generally understood that Mr. Stevens resigned his
position with tho Hill lines because of a deal with the Harriman
system by which the Oregon Electric and lines in this state
were being held up indefinitely. He refused to be party to a deal
designed to block tho growth and development of a great stato.
As to the building of a railroad from Eugeso lo the sea, ;
the people of Lane county are able to accomplish that. The hard-1
est pull will be to complete tho first section to Elmira, but if all
the people who will share in tho benefits will do their part the
burden should bo so distributed that it will fall heavily upon no
one. A few shares of stock should bo taken by every man and
woman who owns a home in the city or a farm in the country. It
is a popular movement to break tho strangle-hold of railroad
monopoly and the resident of Lane County who does not aid
the cause is lax in his duty to the community in which he lives.
Tho attorney general now spenks of an effort, tentative,
to indict officals of the Standard Oil company and the tobacco
trust, found guilty, in the opinion of the supreme court, of en
gaging iu a criminal conspiracy. There is some hope of, effec
tive work to break up the evils of these combinaions of great
wealth in that. When tho individuals who direct their affairs,
prey upon the public and disregard the laws of the country be
hind the shadow of a charter shall be brought to trial and con-
viction like ordinary lawbreakers much of the trust evil will bei
done away with.
The steel corporation is a billion and a half affair. Beside
it the tobacco trust lool;s small. And yet the hitter is not much
of an infant. It hns stock of $380,000,000 nnd about $148,
000,000 of bonds. lis constituent companies number 68, nnd
it controls the tobacco business not only of this country but of
England.
Popular election of United States senators wnn at. lnot
because the "Oregon plan"' forced action in that direction. The
"big interests" will no longer own the upper branch of congress
because its members must answer directly to the people. i
