Just sixteen years ago yesterday the first passenger train pulled into Klamath Falls, the picturesque mule train became a memory and the stage coach became his tory. Klamath Falls put on its holiday attire and be decked the first passenger engine with flowers. It mark ed the passing of the old order; the stage coach and freight team wera to be superseded by the train and the automobile. On that date Klamath Falls had a popula tion of about 2500 people, today it has at least 7.000. Most of the fertile lands in the county were then covered with sage brush. The sage brush is now a memory and the lands are cultivated to alfalfa or otherwise utilized. Dairying was then a subject of remote speculation, today it is coming into its own and promises to vie with other sections that have become prosperous through this one industry. At the time of the advent of tha engine Klam ath Falls and the Klamath country were practically in accessible by highway, and a freight team stuck in the mud was not an uncommon sight. Today Klamath county has a system of highways that compare favorably with sections that boast up-to-date road construction. At that time this section was a horse country, the auto was in the offing. The horse has joined the memories of the pack train and the stage coach, and so numerous are the au tomobiles today that it is difficult to find space for park ing on the principal streets of the city. But looking into the future what may we prophesy for the next sixteen years? It would appear that the period juHt pM has b?en only a wait for what has now appeared. Klamath, Full today is nut looking forward to the coming of one engine, but is expecting a flock of .iron horses. No section of the Tnited States can reason ably expect the railway construction that appears to be logically certain to take place in the Klamath country. And the building permits disclose the fact that Klamath Falls, comparatively, exceeds all other towns in the state, in the way of construction. With a payroll of a million and a half dollars a month from its industries, the im mediate future promises to double this volume, and the next sixteen years will see it quadrupled. This year will add three thousand people to Klamath's population. Is it oo much to predict that at least that number will be added each year to the population of this city and that the rounding out of the next sixteen year period will find a population of at least fifty thousand people in Klam ath Falls? . ... .. . - .

Rev. rtamuel Clinton was taken SPURNS TITLES South Africa's parliament has definitely declared against the granting of titles by the king to subjects of South Africa. The resolution was opposed by several men with titles as trenching upon the king's prerogative handicapping the prime minister. General Hertzog, the prime minister, however, fav ored the resolution. He declared that titles tended to create caste and class, whereas in the old republics the ideas of absolute equality had been maintained in such form that the humblest might become president. o For more than a year the Home Endowment Limit ed of Australia has thoroughly investigated every scheme for financing home building and finally agreed upon a plan that will make it possible for every small man to become the owner of his own home. o President Coolidge is investigating some forty "in dependent agencies" of the government, but directly con nected with the public treasury. There's a reason for the protest against his economy program. o There would bo no objection to a state song if at tempts to sing it could be effectually prohibited. Chat tanooga News.
