A report from tho state engineer which Is published in the chamber's news latter makes a most nttractlvo showing ot potential traf fic, which Is tho chief deciding fac tor as to the feasibility of a railroad project. In Central Oregon, from Crano to tho California line, 353,000 acres hnvo been Irrigated, nnd lrrigatt-.u. is proposed for 375,000 acres ndditlon al. nil of which would bo tributary to tho proposed roads. Thcro are also tributary to those roads and to the uncompleted lines ot which thev would be extensions over 76,000,- ,000,000 feet of timber, mostly yel low pine. To this must be udded the livestock ot Control and South eastern Oregon. When tho McNary reclamation bill is passed, irrigation nnd dralnago will add greatly to tho area ot reclaimed land that would be tributary to the lines. Obtaining of capital for this and other lines, construction ot which has been long deferred, is contin gent on conditions which will again make railroads an attractive invest ment. When costs have been re duced so that rates can be reduced and when rates have been reduced to the point where volume of traffic will increase railroads should earn an adequate return on their invest ment at the same time that cost of transportation ceases to be an undue harden on production. Capital can then be drawn into railroad Invest' ments, and the Strahorn plan will become a reality. Reclamation of land and spread of Information about traffic possibilities will hasten that day. has boolf directed . against .Shima.

Is withdrawing from Centra Oregon. With others he owned 17,000 acres In the three Central Oregon counties and for sev eral years past had grown potatoes on some ot this land, using chiefly Japanese labor. Now, according to his spokesman, ho Is disgusted with continued agitation here against Ja panese colonization and although he "never contemplated Japanese colon ization himself he dislikes to havo his operations hampered by false ac cusations which have made his ven tures in Central Oregon disagree able." How much of this, we wonder, Is the truth? If Mr. Shima had no Intention of Japanese colonization there Is no reason why his operations should be hampered.

REFUSE TO ACCEPT "SMITH" UNIVERSAL EDUCATION The old way was for the student to go to school. At tho stated times ot the year when school was open he left home, took up his residence In tho school town and pursued his studies during term time. When the term ended ho camo, homo or went to work to earn enough to go through another term. Many who did not attend school studied by them selves without regular Instruction. Only In special cases was instruction brought to the student these being cases where tutors were employed for pupils whose parents were able and who, for one reason or another, did not want their children to at"montn tenu scnooi. Students still attend school and college and private tutors are still employed. No one need work at home without guidance, however, and to a large extent instruction Is brought directly to the pupil. That essentially American tthlng, popular education, has become more gener ally available to all until today It is almost universal In its opportunities to old and young. These thoughts aro suggested by Margot Asquith, commenting on tho engagement of John D's grand daughter to a Swiss riding master. said that International marriages were silly, that only un American girl could get along with a foreigner and that English girls prefer their own breed. Inasmuch as Mnrgot's daughter married a Roumanian named Blbcsco wo wondor whore that leaves her. Members of That Family Havo Hard Work Convincing.
