Dawson, of Donvor, head of tho Colorado delegation, presented the resolutions as adopted, with some minor changes. Tho other resolutions embodying the principlo of Federal control In tho Ferris bill, were intro duced by Thomas J. Walsh, United States Senator from Montana Of the four United States Senators attending the conference two favor the principle of state control of water power resources and two stand for Federal control. The two advocates of stato control are Senators Smoot, of Utah, and Clark of Wyoming. AS the only member of the Wyoming dele gation he was made that state's re presentative on the resolution com mittee. The two advocates of Federal 'con trol are Senator Chamberlain of Ore gon, and Senator Walsh t Montana, both Democrats and strong support ers of tho present Administration, which has fathered tho Ferris bill. On the other hand A. E. Chandler chairman, of tho California Water Commission and as tho only delegate of that state ot tho conference, lined up with the Federal control forces.

I RAILROADS AND RIVERS Sfircvoport, Louisiana business men have organized a $50,000 com pany to establish a bargo lino to New Orleans, Alexandria has a similar pro joct pending. The, purpose is to util ize the Red river as a regulator of freight rates. The Now Orleans States says that just as the railroads drove boats from the Mississippi so they drovo them from the Red river. The States says:' Tho railroads originally wero able to destroy river traffic because tho former made rates to suit their own sweet will, lowering them until they drove the boats from the rivers and then raising them as high as they pleased. But with ample power in tho hands of the stato railroad com mission to curb tho railroads in any way they can soon make luirmless any attempt to put rates down merely to crush a competing water service Whether a barge lino between Shrevo port and New Orleans can be made a permanent affair rests entirely with those who ship tho freight. If benefits of tho cheuper haul arc to be realized, tho cheaper haul Viust be used. The rule holds between rail roads and rivers just as it holds be tween improved and unimproved high ways. Thero is something in tho Louis iana situation for those who ship the Columbia basin's freight to think n bout. Tho timo was when a railroad through ownership of a boat line, kept river competition at a minimum But tho IntorxtnUf Commerce Com mission freed the river of ruilroud domination. It is now open nnd ready for service ns a freight carrier, But tho Columbia and its nuvigu Lie tributaries will not servo, their full purpone ns rate regulators unless they nro used. As In Louisiana, it Is up to those who ship the freight. Oregon Journal.

That was a time when the country be tween the Mississippi valley and tho mountains was being settled by a new people uii'tl tile population was com posed of hardy pioneers, men broken down financially who had gone there to recoup, and desperadoes. MncKnlght concluded to go out nnd look over the ground. The mode of travel In the region referred to was on horseback, and, as for Btopplng places. any settler would tako in a stranger One evening MacKnlght rode up to a small farm aud asked admission of & woman who bore evidence of refine ment. Ho was admitted and treated with kindness and attention by tho family, among whom wus a very pret ty daughter Just grown to womanhood. Tho family uninc was Osborne. The father had lost a fortune and gone west partly because he had not the means to enable his wife and children to movo In the same clrclo to which' they had been accustomed and partly In tho hope of accumulating new capi tal. MacKnlght became Interested In these people nnd 'remained with them several days. Ono evening a mnn a bloated, hairy fellow with an ugly look on his face- rode up to the house and called for Osborne. Mrs. Osborne turned pale as she told the man, whose name was Muldrough, that her husband was not Mfc 1. f . . I .1 1 iil uuiiit;. .uuiuruugu roue uwny uy- lng that he would call again. As soon as ho hi(3 gone the lady collapsed There had been trouble between Mul-'j drough nnd Osborne, tho former hav ing branded some of Osborne's stock that bad strayed on to his ranch. MacKnlght listened to the story told tearfully by Rosa Osborne, and his sympathies were aroused. The ilny after Muldrough's visit MncKnlght left the Osborncs. instead of pursuing his tour he rode to the storo a few miles distant from which the neighborhood wns supplied nnd sent a messenger to -Muldrough that ho would like to see him on a matter of Importance. Muldrough enme to the store. In "which nt tho time were sev eral, cattlemen making purchases. "I understand, Mr. Muldrough," said MacKnlght, "that there Is trouble be tween you nnd a man of the name of Osborne, at whose bouse I put up for a few days. I have called for you to see If I. can't bring about a settle ment" "Young man," said Muldrough, "1 want you to understand that If you don't want to go the road r propose to send Osborno you'd better keep out of this business." MncKnlght tried to reason with the man, but, finding it impossible to pro duce any effect on him, took another tack. "Since you are determined to fight Mr. Osborne." ho sold, "I think you should give him a cnanco tar his life. In other words, he shouldave tho choice of weapons." By this time tho cattlemen had gath ered round und evinced nn Interest in the discussion. It was plain that they were advocates of fair play. "You Jcln tell Osborne," replied Mul drough. "that I'll bcat his house to morrow morning at 10 o'clock. Find out what weapon he prefers, and I'll have It with me." ( "He will tight you with bowle knives," rejoined MacKnlght "Muldrough laughed. "All right," he cried. "I'll bo there with a bowle knife." "Gentlemen," sold MacKnlght turn ing to the cattlemen, "thero la a quar rel between this man and Mr. Osborne, nt whose house I have recently been entertained as a guest Mr. Osborne has n family and can't affordto die at present I nm a bachelor and am .at jlbcrty to take any risk. I'll fight Mr. Muldrough with, knives twelvo Inches long on condition that the fight be transferred to mo nnd Mr. Osborne have nothing further to do with It" "Tlmt'H fair," was the unanimous ex clnmatlon, and Muldrough unwillingly cousented to the change. A couple of carving knives were pro duced, each a foot long; a ring was foraged, two of tho cattlemen were mnde seconds and a third umpire, Muldrough, who was a large man. towered over his antagonist who was of medium height MacKnlght ad vanced, retreated, advanced again, danced about his opponent, his knlfo Jumping nbout as glibly as himself.

America Recognizing that a great purpose of the school of commerce vt the Uni versity of 'Oregon is to help build up trade relations for the state, the Uni varsity is taking, inital steps toward nn exchange of professors with one or more universities of South Ameri ca. The man sent from the University to South America must be well post ed on the products the nbrthwest can and should be exchnncinc in trrf .vith the southern republics. He is to impart his knowledge to the stud ents at the university to which he is accredited and in addition is to teach j course in business English. In re turn the University expects to re ceive a professor conversant with the trade conditions of his republic, which he will make familiar to the students here Jiesides teaching them a super ior course in business Spanish. Each visiting professor will study the needs and prospective trade re lations together with the banking me thods of tho country to which he is sent nnd on return will be able to re veal to the home students trade pos sibilities from a native standpoint The expense of the exchange will be little mora than tho cost of trans portation. The South American will be asked to advise the Portland commercial clubs bureau of trade with regard to the territory from which he comes.

SUGAR BEET PROSPECTS Of special inerest to Oregon farm ers who contemplate embarking In sugarbcet production is tho statement of Clifford Willis, editor of the North west Farmstead, that the outlook for homo producers is more encouraging than ever before. This is due Mr, Willis thinks, to the fact that exper ience has bettered cultural methods, than ever before, and that the market i3 influenced by war conditions more nearly to approach the normal under favorable tariff regulations. Produc tion in many districts hns nlso greatly increased and , many of the largest manufacturers of best sugar report that they have contracts to their full capacity and have been forced to turn down scores of applications for fur nishing raw products. He is greatly impressed with the favorable sugar beet conditions of the Willamette Val ley. Mr. Willis is the successor to John- E. Larson, Extension ngrono mist of the Agricultural College, aa editor of the Farmstead. SHERIFF'S SALE OF REAL PROP ERTY. ON FORECLOSURE.
