FRIDAY 1ULY 17, 1903 PROSPERITY STILL PROSPDRS. .Many times in the past two years, the prophets of evil and the over wise have issued warning thnt the crest of our prosperity httd been renched,nnd that a dechue was im mediately iti prospect. x Hut the general prosperity has continued unabated,-new heights hnve been reached and the prophets hnve re tired in more or less coni'usion, much to the relief of the country. Now the Orcgonirfh is seeing things. It expresses the opinion that u decline is at hand, but the chief reason for this view appears to be. that labor strikes of the past fewmonths have not .been success ful.'.lt is true-tlmr the strike in rortlanu taiicu to make any per ceptible winniug and in some other localities a similar record has been made. Hut it is hardly to escape notice that the most extensive ad duces in wage that any industry hasjwituesscd in ears has taken place this year, namely, among rail way operatives. Telegraph opera tors,engi:je men, train men, ofhee em ployees and even section hands have been recognized with higher pay. These advances did not come as a result of strikes, it is tme, but they were demanded by organized labor, with the alternative of a strike but thinly veiled. Hoth parlies con sented to negotiations by which labor's demand was met without going to that extremity. And then there is the very no table case of the strike of boiler makers and machinists on the Union Pacific. That was settled a few seks ago, after nearly a year, by practical surrender to the strik ers. The strikers got a radical modificatfbn of the piece-work UnSls of nay, which was the heart of the contention, with full recognition of their Organization and a definite agreement for joint consultation in the future. Labor is still winning its share of the battles with capital. Portland Jacks much of being the whole labor situation. Now comes the hard fact that the iron and steel industry, which all adnijt to be' the best indicator of prosperity, shows undiminished vigor. At the quarterly meeting of the United States Steel Corporation last week the surprising statement was. imide that die advance orders already-booked materially exceeded those of the same date last year, particularly in steel rails for 1904. Thfe does not indicate railroad stag nation." Not so many miles of new track' arc under construction as have been built in other years, but thjjj does not mean that times arc hard dr threatening. This country 13 tolerably well supplied with transportation lines. The wise policy now is to perfect those al ready built by improving tracks and rolling stock, and that process goes on at a marvelous rate. It is unlikely that we shall ever again see the new mileage that has marked some of the past years of our prog ress. Hereafter construction will lie more devoted to balancing up systems than to reaching out into vast undeveloped sections. Of course new. regious will not be wholly neglected, but they are ev ery year becoming fewer and less vast Our prosperity has long been nt its "height and on the verge of de cline "If," If there should bean extensive crop failure or a great financial miscalculation or any one of a dozen misfortunes avc should have trouble. Hut witliout some great cause that is yet to develop there seems no better basis for glpomy prophecies now than at any time in the past five years. Our prosperity is yet on a firm founda tion and may continue indefinitely. ing agent of the O.

This year, also, the Oregon lines , of the Southern Pacific join with the O. U. & N. in issuing the pamphlet, which thus Incomes representative of the llarrimau lines in this section of the nation.

The numerous towusite projects ui proof or the fact that this locality is increasing in importance rapidly. Two years ago, or even a year ago, there was nothing at Hetitl to attract the townsitc boomer. To be sure, there was the well-formed plan for au extensive Irrigation enterprise, but this was hooted at as nefarious I in design and .impossible of consum mation. Nevertheless it has proved the nucleus for great material ad vancement in this neck of the woods ami the faithlcss.ones are not nearly so numerous as they were. Let the towns come, ve say. There is room for all, and without crowding. iTSschutes and I,ytle and Ttmiclloftnd the nameless town at the Sixemore ranch, any or all of them, will(uot crowd out Head, though they do flourish like a green Imytree. Thcv still lack something of perfeOtOu 011 their legal end, as does Heud also. Hut those matters may all be attended to in due rea son. Tlte common. t.es thus seek ing individual corporate existence fwill eventually merge into a homo- genious city. Tlte railroad may aid or may retard this nuult but it will come just the same. It is the part of wisdom to recog nize the inevitable before we arc up hard against it. The .prufciit J- :l very . brief , time too' brief .tb'bs spent in wrangling over matters that involve no lasting principles. Kvery man may be expected to pull for his own interests first, but that does not mean that he should knock his neighbor. If we cannot get just what we want let us help our neighbor to get it; that's better than driving it out of the country. This community is already too big and prosperous and hopeful to waste its energy in snarling at everything that does not gratify individual sel fishness. There are others in this world, and a great many of them. declares its ability to proceed nlone in the further work or repairing the damage wrought by the storm of June 14.
