, A..GREAT OAMPAIN" OF DEVELOPMENT.
Tho editor of thls'ncwsaper has been, in five counties .in tho past ten
days and has coma in contact with a great many people.
He Is impressed with tho fact that there is tho greatest era of devel
opment on- in Oregon that any state lias over enjoyed?
The year 1910 will see more accomplished Jn tho upbuilding of tho
state than any year Jn Its history .
Wh weiro in Lincoln county boosting for a Port Commission for the
peopleMf Toledo who wish to improve their liarbor clinnnels.
We wero In Benton county boosting for tho development of Corvallls
and Philomath and tho fruit industry there.
We wero at Scio, Shelburn and Aumsvllle boosting for tho develop,
mcnt of tho Sontinm country.
Wo werit to Independence Friday night through pouring rains to help
along a movement for a high school there.
We went to Donald on Saturday with Judge Bushey to talk for good
roads.
Wo wero at Buttovillo Saturday night at a nteeting of tho Trl-County
Push club to help tho movement for a bridge across the Willamette nt
that point.
We havo no time to spend with people arguelng politics or discussing
obstacles or negative propositions.
Oregon Is good enough morally and politically for any average citi
zen but wo must improve in other ways.
' Wo want better roads and streets, moro steam and electric railroads,
and betterrTvater transportation.
, Wo expect to go into every city, town and village preaching the doc
trine of dovelpmlent and progress.

THE FAROE OF OFFICIALISM.
After his own building was a hopeless ruin, Mr. Tooze rallied the
business men of Falls City to save tno town from destruction.
It is generally admitted that ho sved the town from destruction and
turned the tide at tho critical moment to save tho big hotel.
Such men as Mr. Tooze are never fully appreciated until the com
munity is in danger and then thcr appenr to get h little credit.
Few men would rally after such a blow but Mr. Tooze will come
through "tho Are a' blgg'er jiuslness man than he was "before.
..AGAINST IIONDLNG THE COUNTIES.
Tho first two meetings of Judge Webster in Marlon county for
Good Roads county bonding amendment to the constitution have been
held, and the sentiment developed is not favorablo to. bonding.
If each county could bo induced to Issiw a half million of bonds for
macadamized roads that would ndt Settle tfnythlng. ' ' '
Half a million dollars might bo a small matter to a rich" county like
Marion but it would only build 100' miles of road at $5,000 a mile.
That would bo two roads across the county and tho whole county
would bo taxed for those two roads, and forever to maintain them.
Tho two-roads would be a good thing across the county and -would be
a grand object lesson on tho value of permanent highways.
If ""we hadv"two .such roads built it would add millions to the value o?
pcoperty and would probably solve tho problem of road building as the
people would find ways to build all roads like those two.
Tho Capital; Journal believes the statle Ynust have a system that will bo
adopted and can be put into operation all over the state.
THE BUSINESS MAN'S PROTEST.
This ofllco and many private citizens and business men aro troubled
by appeals and circulars to help the census department.
They Bhould all bo thrown into tho waste basket, and the census of
ficials should tako tho census as they aro paid to do.
In other countries n census Is taken In twenty-four hours and tho
returns published within a year after It Is tnkon.
In our country it takes a month to enumerate tho people, oix
months to tako special census work, and ten years Jo publish it.
Tho perpetual, permanent, ovorlasting census bureau has boon fast
ened upon tho peoplo by Congross at tho cost of millions.
It grows moro cumbersome, moro complicated and more inefficient
each year but it feeds ofllclallsm nnd pauperizes an educated; class.
o .
COMES OUT OF THE FIRE SMILING.
Tho destruction of the Walter L Toozo department storo by flro at
Falls City has not depressed tho spirits of tho owner.
He was tho last man to go down fighting the lire and comes up for
another round with tho olomenta more dauntless than ever.
Mr. Toozo will rebuild a three-story brick or concroto building and Is
offered flnnnolal backing from nil directions nnd will build.
Tho business men of Oregon are signing' the protest almost unani
mously against carrying Oregon for Constitutional Prohibition.
They do not believe Prohibition is practical in large cities.
Their reasons do not appeal to the theorist and agitator who Imagines
he can force men to become sober by ledict of a majority.
Reason, moral suasion and Christianity must reform men.
If 'there is any principle Involved In the Oregon Local Option law,
tho visionary and thorist cannot see that it is to be upset.
You cannot make them believe a wet community can't be made dry.
State "wide Prohibition absolutely Contravenes and knocks in tho
head the principle that each' community must deal with this problem.
They overthrow Prihibitlon with Local Option and then reverse.
The protest of the man of principle who stands by a law because the
people have enacted It is as nothing to the radical Prohibiten
With moral disorder in a city like Eugene they want more disorder.
What do they care that a large residence city like Salem has perfect
order with saloons confined to three blocks and vice to half a block?
They would scatter vice and bootlegging like thistle-down.
Salem Is a city of homes and schools and has the best moral condi
tions ever established in a city of this size In the world.
Tho mad. imagination of Prohis picture Salem a moral cesspool.
Tho appeal of the business men Is for orderly management of a city's
affairs but It Is wasted on the theorists who want disorder.
In the long run the business man's protest will win.

of corpuoclos that defend you
against disease.
To make and keep these little soldiers
healthy and strong, is simply to mako

and quantity.
