Oregon for 10,000 snore men to -work at common labor, at irag higher tban bare over. before been paid for common labor in time of peace in the United States. Tie Pacific eoa is calling to fie east for its surplus working population. Here is Oregon the workingman may find the most healthful conditions, tiie best living; the pleasantest surroundings, the warmest welcomer and a climate tiat will permit him to work oat of door ho whole year. It i sid tbe, most serious meiace to the increasing prosperity and devel opment of the Pacific northwest, at the present time is the lack of mea to do the work that must be done in various lines of coasruetion. Business men who bare looked carefully over the field y there is bound to be a sharp ad vance of wages for common laborers a&cJ otben extraordinary measures adopted to induce them to come to Ore gon if the stupendous plana of develop ment are to be carried forward. Oreot Need for Labc&rs. "Projects in the state of Oregon alone at this time demand S000 more men tban one in fight. There are that many orders actually now on the. books of employment agencies," 6&id "Willis E. Potter, the well known tie and tim ber contractor, who is probably as fa miliar witb conditions as any other man. "The fiVxns and corporations that have planned large undertaking and are in hato to carry oat their plans are up against a bard .condition of affairs. Men who are willing to work at common labor of all kinds are absolutely necessary. There does aot seem to be any way to get enough. T addition to the strong demand fcr laborers ,a this rtate. there is an equal ly loud call from Washington, Idaho, Nevada and other places. Bringing Men from East. The Harriman railroad companies are making an effort to organize a party of 1000 working men at Chicago and bring them to the Pacific north west to work on railroad construction. Tho Harriman companies are bard 3rtl for help on the grades of the hundreds of miles of road they have under'nken to build in Oregon and Ida bo. The Riparia-Lewiston extension, wbieb was to have been completed this summtr, by employment of 1200 men straight through the job, is not nearly knc, and the time for finishing it is indefinite. Initead of 1200 men the contractors have had as low as 450 Spring Lamb Makes the Onset kind of a Sunday dinner. Way ahead of chkken. Get some to morrow. BEF STEAK ROAST BEEF Ever eat veal cutlets?

If cos struetion of the Drain-Coos Bay lice is dcSayed it will be because of short age of laborers. The Portland and Se- afie company has had a bare ttme get ting enough mea to carry on its work on the nortb bank. The Harriman peo ple have been trying thefr utmost to get a large force of men to work on tie north bank grade of the Columbia Valley road, bat have been able to eccure only 450 men. The or:h(m Pacific is having similar trouble to get mea to work oa its Lewiston-Graage ville extension All railroad projects are being carried along under difficul ties with limMed fences of workers. Wherever it is pofsibla to secure Jap anese and Chinese labor the railroad companies are putting them to work. The Lytle road from Forest Grove to Tillamook, is being built largtfy by Chinese labor, as it has been impossi ble to get enough white men. The situation is nearly as bad in Washington, Idaho and farther east. There are railroad and irrigation pro jects being launched in all directions, demanding many thousands of men who are willing to work witb pickshovel, scraper and dycamit". Xever in the history of the United States, it is said, has tbere been a time when common laborers conld demand and receive as good wages, and be so well cared for aad secure steady work the year round, as they are offered today in Oregon. A scene was enacted yesterday morn ing in the north end which illustrated foreefullv the truth of the assertion tbat tbene is a mighty call for men. On Burnside sirt, between Second and Third, stood a little group of laboring men listening to the harangue of a man in the hallway leading to an employ meDt office. The man was pleading with the laborcs to sign for wok at from $2.25 to $3 a day oa the Biparia-Lewis-ton road. ' "From $2.25 to 3 a day, that's, what we're offering you," bellowed tie man. "There's work for 500 men, and it'll last a year and maybe two years. A Pullman car leaves tonight with the men who want to work and it's free fare for all. When you get tbere the work is nice and she weather is fine no rain. Grub first rate and quarters O. K.; 2.25 and ?3 a day." Fcj more tban an hour the orator pleaded for labor witb poor success, o Following the Flag. When our soldiers went to Cuba and the Philippines, health was the most important consideration. Willis T. Morgan, retired commissary sergeant, U. S. A of Rural Koute 1, Concord, N. ilv says: "I was two years in Cuba and two years in the Philippines, and being" subject to colds, I took Dr. King's Xt'W Dlscovedy for Consamp tion, which kept me in perfect health And naw, in New Hampshire, we find it the best medieine in the world for coughs, colds, bronchial troubles and all lucg diseases.

SWEET CO-EDS ARE THERE Size Up More Numerously Than the Boys on Graduation Day The 62d annual joint closing exer cises of the normal department and of the Oregon Institute of WiEamette University were held at the First M F.. chnreb last evening. A large num ber of friends gathered to witness the exercises and the granting of diplomas to the members- of the 1906 class. The decoraion scheme, though simple was beautiful. In the foreground, suspended from the ebolr loft, were the numerals " '00, " artistically wrought out of evergreens and flowers. The platform, too, was a mass of fragrant blooms, the tribute of friends to the members of the graduating class. In the nor mal they were Carrie X. Belknap, Ella M. Evans, Gladys M. Soward, Lorena M. Smitb, Maud O. Stone, Clyde F. French, Albert J. Wright, Myrtle C Duncan and Ethel M. Gerding. John Will received a certificate of comple tion of the pr-iparatory course. The program consisted of a piano solo, by Miss Blanche Brown; invocv tion, Prof. W. H. Manage. Ph. D.; la dies' quartet, Missea Winans, Ketch urn, Alma Hales, Buth Field. The address was made by Hon. J. H. Ackerman on "The Trained Teach er." In opening Mr. Ackerman stated be recognized Willamette University as- one of the state scUools, aad this class of graduates as a tate class, just as if they had" completed a course of study at one of the institutions di reetly euppo-tJ by the state. The public school system, he asserted, has bad thTee great battles to fight; the first was to make the school for the instruction of the masses; the second wa io make the property of the state taxable to istain public education, and the third, but not the least, is the fight for the 'trained teacher. "I am an optimist," said Mr. Ack erman, "I believe we are advancing LEASED RIFLE RANGE Adjutant-General Finier was in the city yesterday on an official visit, and leased a piece of land in West Salem for five years for the establishment of tae state rifle range. Caryain Murphy, of Company M. of this city, has been given charge of the work, and the best range ever constractod in Oregon will be the pride of the Capital City. The annual shoot will be held in ibis city Julw 9th, and will continue for three days. Company M now holds the state trophy, and is working hard to keep it hvro. When the cup is won thrice in succession it becomes the property of the organization. The state trophy has already been won twice by the crack shooters of Company M, and they are determined to win this last shoot, that the tophy may remain in their pos session permanently. Heretofore the annual shoot has been held in the fall. but this year it is to be held July 9th. The piece of ground leased for the construction of tbe range is on the E.

Tit is probable that the enMnanee prohibiting the use of firecracker on the Fourth of July during certain hours, and which was printed in The Journal, will not be considered favor ably by tbe ordinance commi'ee. While tho citizens favor a sane Fourth, they do not believe it good policy to prohibit the ute- of firecrackers on tha-j day. At first it looked as though tho ordinance would receive practically a unanimous vote, but some earnest oppoicltiou baa manifested itself against it Vtace tbe ordinance was published in ilie papers and becomo better under- &opd by the people. Monday evening tba council will act on this ordinance. Socne believe It should not only in clu'dn the Fourth of July, but the Chi note Xow Year as well. . Stealing Begins In Lake.

The speaker closed with a few personal words to the clas-s, impressing upon them that teachers are made, not born. After a sweet solo by Miss Durate, Dean W. C. Hawley presented the di plomas to the class, and congratulated tbe members on tie successful termina tion of their course. Inspect Irrigationf Project.
