VTlio students of the University of idnho recently competed for a

HON. BILL GRIMES OF OKLAHOMA, NOW OF COOS BAY.
'He was a plain citizen of Nebraska who came to be sheriff.
He went into Oklahoma with the rush that was composed
of about equal parts of public officials, criminals and decent
P vOhen things got too tropical to hold the latter, and ordinary
timid people were leaving the territory, Bill Grimes was made
'He anThls "deputies cleaned up the Dalton gang and made
the country too hot to hold the rest of the desperadoes.
As John Brown and his men hunted down the pro-slavery
night-riders of Bloody Kansas days, so Bill Grimes and his
men restored order, and his deputlos and the men they hunted
were not always accounted for.
Grimes was made secretary of state by Roosevelt, served
two terms and becamo acting governor of the territory.
When the state was admitted Into the Union, things got too
settled and Grimes decided to move to Oregon. ,,,.
He had boon out to the Lewis and Clark fair at Portland and
liked the country's appearance.
He had also heard of Coos Bay and liked the sound of the
In 1908 when Taft wantod a delegation from Oklahoma thoro
was just one man who could got it for him.
Bill Grimes of Oregon went back and took charge of the
round-up. , , , if , JU
Taft had been thoro and opposed adoption of the new con-
S A big bunch of tho original Rough Riders were on the ground
early to stampede the stato for Toddy.
The Taft brand went on the delegation, all the same.
Evor since ho has been at Marshfield there has been some
thing doing. . , . . , rx . . n
Ho helped organizo tho Oregon-Idaho Development Congress.
At the first meeting he acted on a committee on resolutions
that endorsed district-built railroads. .
i- That congross also appointed a commission through Gov
ernor Chamberlain- to draft a general port commission act,
When tho U, S, congross failed to appropriate $15,000 to
work tho dredger on Coos Bay Bill Grimes headed a movement
to raise the money and work tho dredger anyhow.
Next the railroad amendment had to bo put through to tho
Orogon legislature,
It was tlioro Bill Grimos mot Bill Hanley, Pat McArthur and
Governor Benson, and as a result the bill went through both
houses.
Thon tho Port of Coos Bay commission act had to bo put
through and a commission namod who could not bo grafted
and would not graft,
To protect all Interests and keep the communities from
fighting, Bill wanted a commission of two from North Bend,
two from Marshfield and one from up Coos River,
The commercial bodios namod them, Governor Benson ap
pointed them and tho port commission stands,
Grimos came out with a committoe, met Harriman at Rose
burg, rodo down to Portland With him.
He studied the llttlo Napoleon who bestrides the American
continent and made up his mind to go home and buifd a rail
road himself.
Harriman sent him a pair of boar hounds and Bill went out
and tracked them over tlio trails of tho now railroad,
Not waiting for Harriman to build Into Coos Bay, nor for
tho peoplo to amend tho Oregon constitution, Bill went to work.
In tho past sixty days tho Coos Bay, Central Oregon and
Bolso Railroad has been incorporated, organized, survey
started, right-of-way socured, officers namedand stock sub
scriptions opened,
A practical railroad man Is In charge and there will bo no
lotting up, t
Grtmtc fought the same battle in Oklahoma and got results.
Tho territory had 150,000 people and two railroads that
refused to bum any extensions.
The people had little moans and no capital, but they forced
a new lino through the heart of tho territory and all the big
trunk lints followed. ii( , n
Grimos will do the same thing In Oroson,
His motto it: "Km on raising hell.'
Men k$ WK GHmtt are the best antidote for the knocker
snd the piker.
The knocker kicks tho most, hollers the loudost, does the
(east and never contributes a cent,
The piker is only a more cunning form of the knocker, Bill
says.
He slips In and buys property, refuses to make any improve
ments or contribute to any, but gete the benefit of all his
neighbors do for development.
Oregon needs fewer knockers and pikers an.d more Bill
Grimeses,
If we had more men like him in congress Oregon would get
to the front faster.
We have had too many self-assertive, do-nothing, leathery
cheeked statesmen who are mere parasites on the payrolls.
God bless Bill Grimes and all the good work he is doing for
Oregon,

TWO IMPERIAL COMMONWEALTHS.
Oregon and Idaho are two empires- lacking only develop
ment to make them great.
We have a problem before us: Given the country, the soil
and unlimited resources, the men and the amhitinn.
What is lacking is the impetus to action along right lines
a scientific program carried into execution.
Back the program of development with all the power of the
commonwealth Tegltlmately and constitutionally exercised.
Why should not governments promote the welfare of the
people instead of being mere burdens upon the taxpayer?
Those who engage in the battle for the development of these
two sister commonwealths will live to bless the day.
A railroad from Butte, Montana, to Boise, Idaho, across
Central Oregon Is an ambitious undertaking.
But the people of Idaho have awakened, taken legislative
action, and the people of the Coos Bay country have aroused
and taken independent action.
This is not warfare on the Harriman system but It does
mean to put the commonwealths and all the energies and re
sources of the people into the scale for develpmeot,
The people of these two commonwealths must act.

Verso 14 What docs James mean
hero by "faith?"
Can n man have true faith, it ho is
not filled with lovo for his follows
nnd dlong nil ho can to help them?
If n man "say ho hath faith," what
is tho test of whothor ho Is tolling
tho truth?
Aro thor- thoso today, who say,
and probably think, they havo faith,
but lack loving hearts, and tho
fruits of love, aro decolvlng them
selves? Whnt Is n Christian's proof to
himself, that ho Is not n docoivud
man In claiming to bo in tho favor
of God?
Versos 15, 10 How do you class
thoso who sco people In need of food,
nnd clothing, and do not do all thoy
can to supply tho need?
Whnt pwrson moro nearly resem
bles Jesus, tho ono who talks very
piously, nnd prays with tho ncody,
hut giving them no help, or tho ono
who generously supplies tho need
without any religious pretensions?
If n man helps tho needy to sup
ply their own needs, Is that as well
or bettor, than supplying tho needs
direct?
Is It posslblo for a church to bo
doing full Clirlstlnn servlco which Is
not helping thu needy, either In Its
own or BOino other community?
Vorses 17, 18 Is It posslblo to
show faith without works?
