CATTLE FAMINE IS FELT OVER COAST 45,000LessHead InOregon Than There Was In 1009 POSTAL SAVINGS BANHSSTARTED Klamath Falls Institution to Be Criterion for All Oregon Ibe fate of tbe postal savings bank , system, au far as Oregon is concerned ; will dtut-ud upun tee success or fail ure cf tie experiment Wat will be made iu Klomatu Fall. The (iovern ment has designated but a sicgls in stitution iu each .state to .tent tbe practicability of tbe plun, and the Klamath Count; Liiiuk. of Klaaiatn Falls, ty virtue cf its priority iu 01 iug its application, ties been desig nated as tbe postal ttaviugn Luuk de positary fur Oregon This new leatuie iu Government baokiug business will be inaugurated there shortly aod every banker in Oregon is watching bo a the public takes to the plan. Correspondent of the Portland banks at Klamath Falls Have been asked to advise the local financiers as to the volume ot business that is done under tbe new system and to report as .soon as suf ficient data to give a line ou it has been secu red. A number of Portland banks made applications to be designated as tbe postal savings institution, but none baa been i-electtd. The system is in tbe purely experimental stage, aod until tbe Government has determin ed whether it shall be wise to further extejd Hi operations, only oue bank hi 1 bave the ritfbt to transact sui-h illlbllJUsS. Portlaud Journal: Tba Paoldo coast la today faolng its worst cattle famine, but tbe entire United Htatea ia feeling tbe grip of a diminished supply of atock. In the territory tributary to toe Portland market there are at this time, It li estimated 4,211,(110 head "t cattle exoulstve of milch rows, as compared with 4,7:W.O(X) a year ago. The lose of nearly half a million bead of cattle in this territory within tbe space of oue year la startling and is caiiBHd by two conditions. Chief among these Is the disappear ing rauge and the second Is the scar city of hay together with high feed prices aid low oatlle values up to the past few aous. It taker from two to three years to raise a steer or cow, therefore tbe loss Is not easily re plenished. While tba Paoirlo coast territory la saffertug from tbe smaller visible supply ot cattle, the country at large Is Iu just as bad plight. Wilb available Information It la figured that the entire country holds today 40.000.UH) bead of cattle, ex clultve of milch oowh, aa compared with 4n,:i7!.(K)0 a year ago, f0 IW.W'O. in 190S. 61.0iW.lKi0 in l'.Hi7 ami 47,0(W. 000 in I'Ah'i. The decrease iu the couutn 'a herd wlthlu the space of four years is startling. Wilb such a startling decrease In the amount of cattle visible thnugh out the country It ia do wonder that meat prices at this time are the high est on reoord tor a like period auJ are within a fraction ot the highest figure ever reached during any period. Meat and cattle prioea are alwaya highest In tha lata winter or early aprlog, but preseot values are ao cloae to tboaa reaobed durlug last spring tbe former high reoord that lltlls difference remalua. For in- staure, while steers sulci here at tdtgbtly better tban IT per hundred pounds last spring, tbe market here on Saturday reached 17 basis. Because of this packers bava been beef to Ho a pound. Tnis Is for au entire aide of an animal. Tbe high est price ever reaobed bere for steer beef was last apriug, when la a limit ed way Hales were made around HlfC a ponnd, tut this high figure remain ed out) a few days, while the present valua of beef, wbicb Is the bigh reo ord for this time ot the season, is endued by a condition of ueueral famine in the offerings and not to any temporary state of the market. WIRELESS TRAIN " CONTIESYSTEM Train Brought to Stand still With Throttle Wide Open Drawing a train of 12 oara and rushing over tba rails at a speed of 45 miles aa bour on a borne atretob of track near tha city of Toronto, a powerful angina on tba Canadian Pad do railway service waa brought to a standstill with tba throttle wide open, aod the engineer standing In bis cab, a mere spectator, like thoae with hint, to view the wonder. The brakes had been applied on the big locomotive and train of cars by a wlrelesH wave ot electricity. It seemed as if a giant bat seized the equipment and held It with ease. I Kxperlmeula with a wireless train coutrnl system have been quietly con ducted by the Canadian Pacific Kali way company since May last, and this demonstration waa tbe culmina tion of a long seiles of successful tests. Tbe automatio tralo control system Is tbe loveotloo of a Toronto man. , Frank W. Prentice. Thirteen years ago on August 13 there was a bead on j collision between a stock train and a passenger train ou a line In which a frlsud of Prentice was Involved, tie worried about It a good dl, aud tnat night be dreamed atout planing oireiena generator ou trains to pre vent such accldeuts. Awakening with the idea still In his mind be commenced work ou it and has been at it ever since. The Ualtlniore & Ohio company raid f 10,(H)0 for bis experiments, but tbey failed because Prentice was using tbe wrong system. A few years later in Ciulnnati, while passing a soda water fountain be noticed a little rubber ball kept bounding In the air oy tba force ot tbe water. Tbia little accident sup plied him with tna missing idea and and the lata demonstiatlso waa the Dnal result.

The club will incorporate aud Usue bends, erecting a five or sir story building tor their quarters and leaning such surplus space as there may be. Tbe Fugeue club is very much alive, hav ing lately added a large number ot members and a big promotion faud is now being raised. in connection with the dispatch from Wiimiogton, Deieware, publish ed in tbe Chronicle Uanday morning telling of the forming of tbe United Properties company of California, some later developments have come to light in connection with the i'JOO,- 000,000 merger that will interest the readers of the Chronicle. lo giving a resume of this merger as it effects California, t tie Ban Francisco Fx- ai-iner bas tbe following to say: "James J. Hill's Hurliugtnu road is to run, beginning oxt April, to solid through passenger trains each way daily between Chicugo and Han Fruuciscso in connection with tlin Jeuver and l!io Grande and the Western Pacific. "Hill iri building th Oregon Trunk road south through Central Oregon to KlituiiiUi Fulls iu tviuiheru Oregon. "it irt now t eliovod lie aiinn to ex teod the uew road into California, connecting with tbe Western Paoiflo in Plumas county and tapping en route the 000,000 acres of fine timber owned in that ipart of the state by Walker, tbe tbe Minneapolis lumber king. "That Hill's Oregon Trunk is like ly to enter northern California la at tested by tbe fact that tbe Southern Pacltlo people bave mapped out five branch lines in that territory which call for GOO miles of road at aa ex pense ot 120,000,000. It is tbe desire of the boutbern iPaolflo to entrench itself against Hill and tbe Western Paciflo iu that section of California." Wealth in Oregon streams, as well m iu the fertile boil of the Heaver stato is shown by the figures of the annual take of calmou lu Oregon waters, chiefly ia tbe Columbia river. A total of 200,000 oases, 35, 000,000 pouuds, waa packed during the past year, having a value of 1.1.600,000. Tne Foreut Servloe is goiog outside of the timber, according to the an- uual report of the Forester, und ii'iw bas well formulated plana for see how ranges tnat bave been depleted and extendlug grazing privileges to acre that hitherto have been untouched for lack of transportation aud water, and Is couductiug experiments in handling sheep in feuoud land, doing asy with the necessity of herding aud more fully utilizing tbe foraga crop. H is said that stockmen and sheepnieu will find asurpllso In the contents of the report. Tbe report shows an enormous amount of work done by the Federal Oovernment In the interests of the stock industry. The Forest Service desires tbat all available range, be used, but tba re port expresses the opiolon tbat rauge as other resouices, should be ao handled as to lucreaso permanently. Along the line of polloy advocated to make forest laud grow beavier stands of timber, it is proposed to make the range support more stock. With tbis idea in view, plans have been outlin ed and experiments conducted in tbe Interests of tbe atock industry, which are calculated to replenish the range with more uutritlou and more ahuuda :t forage. Gallows Don't Check Haleiu, Jan. 0 - lieslrictioii of the pardoning power aud abolition of capital iiuirilimimt are salient feat ures of the report of Superintendent Juiutih, ijt ilu pL'iititcntlury.

Imprisonment with small chauoe of release, he bt)lio ch, would give better results and be more In harmony with the principles of the constitution. Superintendent James reoomraeuds placing the par doning power io tba legislature. Mr. James also believen it should be obligatory upon the trial court to exercise tbe Indeterminate sentence of law la all cases excepting those calling for life imprisonment.
