TWO INFORMING THINGS. To tho studentf advertising two vory fntcrcstlng nnd Informing things hnvo happened In tho past year, tho decrease of tourist travel to southern California and tho Incrcaso of travel Into tho northwostorn states of Ore gon nnd Washington. Doth condi tions nro easily explained. In tho pre-war dayB tho attrac tions of southern California were widely ndvcrtlscd by tho railroads. Chief among tho visitors to that sec tion wore tourists from tho eastern and- -nilddlo westorn states. Tho railroads looked to them for their passenger traffic to tho coast states, and to get It, advdrtlscd tho country. In comparison little was done by tho Btato Itself, or by tho cities. Tho railroads wero left to do all tho work. Then camo tho war. Tho railroads wero taken over by tho government. NAU advertising stopped and slowly ,tho tourist travel to California begau .to fall ofT. Of course, the war had 'some effect but It was not wholly re sponsible, as Callfornlans themselves agree. The chief causo was tho stopping of the advertising the pub licity formerly given by tho rail roads. In tho northwest an opposilo tend ency has been observed, Hero wo havo never depended on tho railroads to advertise our tourist possibilities, b'o that tho cessation of railroad ad vertising made little difference to us. But -while California was setting no advertising the northwest, Oregon, Washington and British Columbia, was being "sold" to the country through tho work of tho Northwest Tourist association, maintained by appropriations from the, two states and tho province.. And now tho re sults ar6 beginning to show. National parks in Oregon and Washington had moro tourist,, travel last year than ever before. Already this year moro tourists aro coming Into this section than have over been known and all indications now point t6 a'year'a business In excess of any thing hoped for. New hotels aro planned In several cities simply to caro for tho tourist travel developed by tho association advertising.. In short, when .tho California ad vertising ceased the travel fell off; when tho northwest advertising be gan tho travel Increased. Draw your own conclusion. BOY SCOUT WEEK. Boys nro as gregarious-that la, literally, na fond of .hording togothur an their fathers are, Fathers havo their lodges nnd clubs nnd pool rooms, und ,bdys, unless their activ ities hnvo been orgimlzcd In sumu proper fashion, nro likely to havo their gangs. And &anga nro llkoly to bo tho causa of mischief, It not of worso, making troublo for parents nnd neighbors hml tho community In general. Tho Boy Scout movement Is n recognition of tho natural tendency of boys to band together and an effort to tako hdvnntngc of tho tend oncy and Cum It to good account. Uoya are taught things that thoy do not learn In school. Thoy nro given practical lessons In many arts which nro almost bound to bo helpful to them nt some time In nttor life. They aro taught cleanliness nnd manliness nnd loyalty. Tho effort is to make them Into "good scouts." This Is Boy Scout week. If nny of ua do not know much about tho organization wo havo an opportun ity to learn. And wo shall havo an opportunity to help, each In n small way, toward the, success of an or ganization of real value in tho boy II fo of tho town. Wo cannot make a hotter Investment of our money. It will not buy anything more valu able than tho proper dovclopmont of our boys -through the aid of tho Boy Scout movement.' Writes Treaty by Hand. News dlimlcii3f from Paris report ed tho old tradition that ttvntloi shall ho written 'by hand Butyl ve, nnd that Joseph Curio of tho French ministry of foreign nffnlrs, oltlelal cullgiuphltjt nnd pointer, wrote tho now peace treaty, For -10 years tho post of official Hlu mlnntnr In the- French ministry of for eign nflnlrs was held by M. Oarapln, according to tho Detroit NVws. Ho linil ono lovo In life ."tho pen." to quote Ills own word, "this simple nnd marvelous Instrument through which human thnutthfls trnnVrlued and forever preserved i" ono hate "ihe vulgar nnd unacstbctlc tjinjwrlt-J er, which prints without art pages that tlmo will not respect." THE OLCOTT CASE. A Judicial body ts ordinarily re luctant to pass upon a question which Is not regularly before It. In decid ing' a enso it may make n statement concerning a related point, and that statement, being unessential to tho decision, Is known as a dictum and is not n decision on tho point. Tho difficulty faced by tho su premo court, in tho Otcott enso, seems to havo been an unwillingness to decide a most Important point by a-mere dictum. Tho question before tho court was whethor or not Mr. Olcott could legally draw his salary as secretary of stato nnd also a salary as governor. The question of his term as governor was not In volved nor any question as to his right to resign as secretary, con tinue as governor and appoint a now secretary. Two of the Justices seem to havo taken this view and to havo ruled on tho salary question only. State ments in tho othor opinions on the rotated subject aro dicta. Possibly somo way may. be found to get tho question squarely before tho court, but Mr. Olcott would bo perfectly safo In going at it In another way that is, in putting the case up to tho people by taking his chanco on elec tion next year. Miners Appreciated Books. Oniclols In charge of Iowa's circulat ing libraries were afraid Io truit a set of books to tho people In a certain Iowa mining district. They were nfiald tho books would not he cared for properly, and thought they could bo placed where they would ho mod nnd appreciated More than In the min ing town. Through the efforts of. the home demonstration agent, however, ono traveling library was sent to the community on trial. The demonstra tion agent Interested tho schoolboy, who mndo a case In which the books were placed. This small library led to much Interest among the peoplo of the town, and the demonstration agent reports that not n single book has been lost or destroyed. A Qreat Objection. "I don't take nny stock In theso cro pnyfent medicine," nsvrled I.afe Lopp, a languid cljjr.cn of Wayover behind. "They're nn enemy to tho human race. S'pose, now, you are getting along alj right, unnbto to work b'cux you're sick; you're pretty mis erable, of course, hut people sympa thize with you nnd respect you And then somebody persuades you to tako a few bottles of Sound-So and you arc cured and get -your picture In tho almanac. And forever afterward ev erybody wonts to know why you don't go to work, dnd-blnmo your ornery hide." Country Gentleman. THE LIBRARY. Wo scorn to be making progress to ward a real library In 'Bend and It Is about time that we did so. For years wo have contented ourselves with about as mlserablo a makeshift for a library as there could be. What should havo been ono of tho attrac-i tlons of this town has been a subject for apology. We havo called our selves progressives, wldo -awakes, live wires, and all the othor booster names in tho dictionary and wo havo given no attention whatever to ono of tho most Important features of American community lifo tho pub lic library. No blamo for tho condition of our library Is to bo attached to tho wom en who havo had It in charge. Rather are they to bo praised for obtaining even tho results which they havo obtained. They havo been handicapped by indifferenci and lack of funds, eviction from tho quarters occupied seemed more than ohco imminent, and yet In spite of diffi culty, they havo maintained a rend ing room and made It posslblo tor tho book hungry to satisfy their needs In somo degree. The blamo lies with us all in not organizing to get what Bend ought to have in tho shape of a public library. Now tho goal seems in sight. A suitable slto has been offered by Tho Bond Company, building funds may bo obtained from tho Carnegie Cor poration, and tho county and city of ficials aro disposed to provide flnan rial assistance through tho coming budgets. Let's make this tho' next stop in tho advancement of Deschutes coun ty and Bend, tho building hero of a modern library for tho servlco of tho peoplo of tho city and county. j , . . Portland papors aro filled with ndvortlsomonts of certain "bathing girls" who nro appearing at a the ater there "In person," Froni' tho illustrations it- sooms tthatthpynp-i !aar in person and in not much else. ON THE CAMP GROUND. The tourist camping ground Is proving Itself all, and even more than, Its originators hoped. Already scores of. travelers havo .taken ad vantage of its .facilities and have gono on their way with a' good word to say for Bend. In spite of all that has been vlono to develop the site, however, there remain many things that could bo done to advantage, things that would add very, materially to tho comfcrt of those using tho spot and by that much more add to their kindly feel ings for tho town. A few brick ovens, for Instanco, would bo inex pensive and yet would mako tho out-of-door cooking much easier. Simple tables and benches would be a great convenlcnco and boxes for the storage of fuel, Instead of letting It scatter all around, would add to tho looks of tho grounds. Of courso, nono of these things is as important as tho camp ground it self. But having provided that, it seoms worth whllo to mako It as comfortablo and convenient us po& oible. A llttlo moro money will do a great deal. If tho city cannot af ford it, the Commercial club might well raise a small fund for the pur pose Tho results may bo Intangible and Immediato returns small, but thoy will come. Burleson has given up control of tho wires. If ho will only glvo up tho post office department every body will bo satisfied, Seattlo had an carthquako shock. Now If Portland could only havo something to shako It up. By the calendar it Is summer, but by tho thormometcr still in tho vi cinity of mld-wlnter. 'hy go to Portland when wo havo a regular llttlo Froze festival here ovory night. Now for somo good roads in Dos chutest county. How's 'your wood pile. .- $, , , . ,., Put It in "THE BULLETIN." No Chance of Relief. Maria was a tender, senflmentnl llt tlo thing, but, to put It mildly, hard ly n benuty. She w-ns very fond of hubby, but exacted from him rather ii n unduo amount of attention and service. . "Oh, George," she complained ono night, "I don't believe you really lovo me! Tell me, would you feel It, dear If we wero parted?" '" "Eh what's thajr said George, brightening up. "I mean, If somo one were to come nnd offer to take me. away to a beau tiful homo nnd every loving enro and nit the rest that money could buy, how would you feel?" MIt won't Imppen," Jie answered, re lapsing into moody silence. Made a Hit. Judge You nay thl man was nt tho performance last night and that ho took nlm and, fifed gn eggnt you?
