T ne war maneuvers back east are education in Hie war spirit, and in tola resoect are not particularly a good thing for the young of tbe country. Tbe spirt of tbe.day should be one In the interest of peace. Progressive civilization sbouia have lees ol .militarism, and it is not a good plan to mase;too much ol a display if. Even if tbia country does see .lit to make a thorouah preparation for emer gencies it 1b not necessary to have a grand eland act of it. The counties of Oregon generally may well look to their bridges and roada . Toey Bbould' be p aced in first claa'a con dit'on and kept that wav. Good roads and bridges will mean a great deal to the future of the Willamette Valley. It is believed that wo are entering upon an important era and tbat the future ia bright for tbe upbuilding of this country to proportions lar beyond the present undeveloped conditions. General im provement should be the order, not only on the part of the counties, but the state, cities and peopls generally KThe gambling spirit has taken hold of the east, and it is stated that moro bet tiDghBB been done this year than ever before, particularly on horae racing. One man riaked $100,000 on hiB borne coming in first in a bunch of over twenty fine animals. It has even invaded the lawn tennlB court. In the national tourna ment at Newport $50,000 wbb wagered on the reBult between Dougherty and Larned. It does not particularly indi cate prosperity, for people of the betting class havs always had p enty of money for the purpose, but it indicates an m orease of the apt tit, no doubt developed from the gambling epirit involved in con siderable of the money making of tbe day. 5 JAn effort is being made to make it ap pear tbat the trusts of the country are up in arms against Roosevelt, but thia is being done for political effect. The trusts know Mr, Roosevelt thoroughly, and are very familiar with bis position during the recent BeBBion of Congress. They are not frightened. They appreci ated the fact that a congressional eiec tion is approaching, and that tho repub- ican candidates are in danger unleea something is done to stem the tido, and these sneecheB oi the President are a part nKlio nrouram. The trusts know who their friends are, and are not nt an dis turbed except on paper for political ef fect. A blind man can read between the lines. i " Woi la's Fair Notes.

The total length of the Panama canal will be 46.6 miles, including an extension ol 3 1 miles through tbe Bay of Pub- ma. The summit evel will be 103 feet. Tho route of the canal lies wholly in j egro'iabjr is obtained from the! negro 'uujr British Antilles. An excellent hospital baa been sstab- " tabhshed near Panama. A iznod railroad exiBta at tbe presert time along the entire rmte. M. de Laseps' plana contemplated tho expendiiure ol 6120,000,000. At present a force of about 2,000 men is at work on tbe cons' ruction. A tide-level canal was planned by the directors of the first company. Tne lime ol transit for an ordinary vesoel will be from eleven to fourteen hours. There are no volcanoes, within 18b miles of the even ext'net, ronte of tne canal. Nearly 4,000 .000 cubic yards of earth have been removed for experimental ex cavation alone. l'he present conceBBion allows until October 31, 1910, for the completion of tbe work. Tbe receiver of the company appoint ed by the Franch courts has never been discharged. The shareholders in the first company when it went into liquidation numbered : over 800,000. I Good housing accommodation for from 15,000 to 20,000 laoorers already exists along the line of work. The Isthmian Canal commission esti mated the coat of tbe woik of completing tbe canal at $184,233,358. The first survey of the present route was begun bv omnloyeB of the de Lea Bepa compauy in February, 1881 The origiuttl company formed by M, ue LesBepa was known as La Compagnie Uaiverselle du OanBl Inter oceanicfue. Berl-beri and yellow fever are among the epidemic diseases which have ap peared among the workmen at various times. ' The government of the United Stalos, if Panama is selected, will pay $40,000,- 000 for the plant and all concussions of the Panama Canal company. The temperature throughout the re gion of the Panama canal is that of tbe tropics, seldom varying during the year from the mean of 79 degrees Fahrenheit. Tbe canal is owned at the present time by the Panama Canal company of Ameri ca, which ia organized under tbe laws of Nbw Jersey, with a capital of 30.000, -1 000. 1 About two filths of the entire stock ' l... 1 i.t inRti.nl nr. , peridental work has been done on the remaining portion materially to lessen the construction.

All days are Sundays witli the rea 1 Christian. The greater the heart the Ibbb room for malice, s Debt is the bait trouble uses to catch suckers, Only our neighbor's children are too worst in tho community. Politics is dirty business only when clean men refuse to take part. Never put off until tomorrow what should havs been done yesterday.

The man who is not interested in poli tics is not interested In good govern ment. riiore are only two good dujs on which to worry yesterday and tomor row . ibe man who gets tbsre is the man who has to be told when quitting time comes. Tbe man who quits a good work be' cause his motives are questioned, never gets very far. Some people offer up Ibeir prayers just like they order a bill of goods flora the tore. No man is poor if be iB blessed with the sight of a baby's face at the aindow when a day's work is done.
