Another important fact ought to be always remembered in a discussion of these questions, There is an equality of benefits and « distribution of added wealth which affects every interest in the com munity and it ought not to be for gotten that the interests of the rail, ways and the communities served by them are mutally interdepend ent. If a community docs not prosper, the transportation lines necessarily do not prosper. If there is increased population, incroasod manufactures, increased subdivi sions of farms and added families, there must of necessity be increased revenues coming to the railway companies serving such communi ties. I believe that the northwest is on the eve of a great upward and forward movement, and in that movement lies the hope of western aDd southern Oregon. The Wil lamette valley is capable o f sustain ing a population of more than one hundred times that now here. Southern Oregon could easily main ! tain fifty times the present popula tion. Instead of farms of large area there would be sub-divisions into ■mall parcels end close and intensi fied farming encouraged, and a market for the produce provided. The history of the state of Washing ton on the north demonstrates the Costa Money to be a Candidate Secretary of State Dunbar has be- guu to make preparations for the general primary election to be held in this state and district offices must be filed with the State by April 1, in order to have a place on the offiial ballot. It will require at least 60 days for each candidate or bis friends to secure the necessary names and pre pare the petitions required by law, so that the name may appear on the official ballot. Two tally sheets will be prepared: One for the Republican party and one for the Democratic party. No other party cast sufficient votes at the last election to entitle it to rec ognition in the primary election. Secretary Dunbar placed an or der with the state printer for 32,- 380 blanks to be delivered January 1. The estimated cost of the pri mary election is between $3500 and $4000. There is nothing to prevent any man from circulataing a petition to have bis name placed on the offi cial primary ballot. Secretary of State Dunbar has no discretion in the matter, but must place every man’s name on the official ballot whose petition is regular and who complies with the terms of the law.

Practical Politica One of the defeated candidates for mayor of New York City, in mak ing his claim to the suffrages of the electors, promised sm on/ other things to end the shortage of seats in the schools; to solve the water problem; to seize the lapsed gas franchises and to furnish gas at half the present price; to improve the traction situation at once, and to reduce fares on street car lines, to punish grafters in finanee as well as in politics. These were some of the most vital questions which were at issue in the mayoralty election in New York City. These questions and others of similar import are the questions which are, or should be, at issue in citr elections all over the country. In every one of these questions women are vitally inter ested, and it requires d o delving into treatises on economics to come to intelligent conclusions in regard to them. Women are as competent to give an intelligent decision as are men, on evsry one of these ques tions. Common fairness demands that they shall be given an oppor tunity to record their decisions on these matters of vital interest to them, through the medium of the ballot, by which those questions are decided. G a i l L a u d h l in . Tho very high price of logs pre vailing in the Mississippi Valley impresses a wetern man with the idea that they are rapidly becoming extinct. A recent sale of United States timber in Minnesota, where logs brought nine dollars aud ninty- five cents stuinpage, indicates a re markable demand. Ono lot of logs bought at those prices by an [own mill company on the Mississippi river, will cost the company, when delivered, about twenty dollars. These logs are considered very cheap, A mill company operating in the same state and on the Miss issippi river is getting logs now which are costing twenty-four dol lar! and seventy-five cents per thousand at the mill. It is very doubtful if even with the present price of lumber, any money can be made by manufacturing logs at these prices. At the same location of these mills, the base price of di. mensions is about nineteen dollars and fifty cents. There is a mar ket for every scrap of lumber that comes from the mills. The only thing that is wasted along these Mississippi river mills is the bark. These same mills have bought in the past white pine logs as low as seven dollars and fifty cents per thousand. The class of logs now being sold is vary poor and ten or twenty years ago would not have been aceepted at any mill. The milling busi ness along the Mississippi river is fast dying out. Below Keokuk, Iowa, there is not a white pine mill in operation on the Mississippi river, while in the whole of Missouri but two mills are running on white pine. One is at Grandin and the other at Winona__ West Coast Lumberman. W hat Has Qod to be ThaJtlui For. Chicago, Nov. 28.— A dispatch to the Tribune from Washington, D . C., says: “ Mark Twain,’’ who took luncheon with President Roosevelt yesterday, gave tho following Thanksgiving sentiment: “ Every year, every person in America concentrates all his thoughts upon ono thing—catalog ing his reasons for beiDg thankful to the Deity for the blessings con ferred upon him and upon the hu man race during the expiring 12 months. “ This is well, and as it should be; but it is too one-sided. No one ever seems to think of tbe Deity’s side of it; apparently no one con cerns himself to inquire how much or how little he has had to be thank ful for during the same period. “ Wo may be unstintedly thankful but cau that really be tbe case with him? If he had voice how would he regard the year’ s results in Russia? “ Doubtless the most that he can be thankful for is that the carnage and sufferings are not as bad ns they might be. "He will have noticed that life insurance in New York has gone tolerably rotten, and the widow and orphan have had a sorrowful timo of it with the hands of their chosen protectors. Doubtless the most lie is thankful for is that the rotten ness and robberies have not boon absolutely complete. He has noticed the political smell ascending from New York, Philadelphia and 60 or 70 other municipalities has been modified a little temporarily and doubtless is thankful for that tran sient reprieve. “ He has observed that King L e opold’s destruction of innocent life on the Congo is not as great this year as it was last by as much as 100,000 victims, because of dimin ishing material. “ Without doubt be, himself, is thnnkrnl that matters in tbe Congo are not as irretrievably bad as they might be, and that some natives still are left alive.” Caughing Spell Caused Death. “ Harry Duckwell. aged 25 years, choked to death early yesterday morning at his home, in the pres ence of his wife and child. He contracted a slight cold a few days ago and paid but little attention to it. Yesterday morning he was seized with a fit of coughing which continued for sometime. His wife sent for a physician but before he could arrive, another caugbing spell came on and Duckwell died from suffocation.— St Louis Globe Democrat, Dec. 1st. 1901:” Ballard’s Horehoud Syrup would have saved him. 25c, 50c and $1.00.
