taries cover at least 100 miles on
the west side of the summit, and
embrace a territory of at least IS
by 20 miles: of a most rugged,
mountainous wilderness. On this
trail there has been only two men
the past season, and while some OF
our people have seen fit to criticize
this forest-range feature as Her
mann campaign, this writer is OF
the opinion that it is a piece OF
wise management to thoroughly
invest this region with fire wardens
and preserve intact and for all
future generations this grand piece
of natures handiwork in all its
pristine beauty.-E. R. L.. in John

Just think Of it! One of Cover
nor Lords friends wants a senator
from Oregon who will work for the
entire United States. After a
residence on the Bay for more than
seven years we have become so
used to hearing that we needed
men to work for Yaquina Bay and
"our interests" that we supposed
everyone knew his lesson we'll, and
that none would be so foolish as to
advance a proposition so entirely
out of order. Will somebody who
has the privilege of the floor please
call that man down; knock him off
the roost; drive him out the barn?
Why, he will spoil all the feed, ard
stop all improvement. "Work for
the whole United States" indeed!
Well that is original, but that's all.
BY no means. Who could ever
have such narrow view of public
duty? Surely, he is only joking.
Don't he know that we, the people
of Yaquina Bay want appropria-
tions? Does our false friend think
Uncle Sam is going to call a man
from Oregon to work? Does he
not know that confidence is res
tored, prosperity is here, and that
the war is over? Don't he know
that the public treasury is full and
running over with gold and other
"honest money!" Work for Uncle
Sam! Well, that would be a great
how.de-do. What we want is a
man that will cause the old man to
disgorge, pass out the coin, give lis
a finger in the pie, and let US get
our hands in the sack. We need
appropriations, pensions, aud no
work. Cinnamon, Spaniards, Ital
ians should work; but, we Ameri-
cans, men of brains. and with a
push and pull, work? Well,
guess not; not even for Uncle Sam.
There is nothing in it..

No one, unless he be ION The
inside" can venture a prediction
as to what will be the outcome of
the extra session of the legislature
called by the Lord, governor of
Oregon. The LEADER is not "on
the inside" but will venture a
guess, if not another hold-up, J. H.
Mitchell will develop more strength
than is generally supposed. We
don't think the people on Yaquina
Bay would take it to heart il he
should succeed in getting there.
We will await results, patiently,
trusting in the Lord, of course, for
lie alone knows what the session
was really called for, and he will not
tell until the legislature convenes.
That is, he will make no official
statement. Possibly some of his
apostles may know more than they
Will tell. All such matters are
esoteric in their nature, you know,
and us common people are not
supposed to know or understand
the infinite works of an Oregon
legislature. Only the initiated
have a right to question even.
What great wisdom can be devel-
oped by the present members over
and above what was, but no longer
is, and what great saving can be
made to the people by converting
them in extraordinary conclave the
Lord only knows, but he will not
tell.

An editor is million aire with
out money, a congressman out of a
job, king without a throne. He
constructs without hammer or saw
builds railroad without rails or
spikes, and farms without a plow.
He runs a butchershop in the
journalistic world and deals out
brains for cash or credit. He loves
those who advertise with him as a
brother. The editor is a teacher, a
lawyer, preacher-he sends truth
out to save souls and gets lost him

for the dying, rescues the perishing
and then starves himself when a
ham sandwich of kindness would

motherhood from excessive suffering is the
"Favorite Prescription" devised by DR..

IN THE CASCADES.
Country Tributary to the Corvallis &
Eastern Railroad.

Now that indications point to
the early extension of the Corvallis
& Eastern, some considerable inter
est is manifested in the country
through which the new mileage
will extend. During the past few
weeks several parties have been
camping and prospecting along the
streams tributary to the north fork
of the Santiam. ~
Many of these persons have had
business as we'll as pleasure in
view, and the result is that very
lively interest has recently been
awakened in all that pertains to
the Upper Santiam country. From
the first to the latter part of Aug
ust there were camped, between
Mud lake and Marion lake, a dis
tance of II miles, parties from Cor
Wallis, Salem, Albany, Portland
independence and other points.
The altitude in this section will
average about 5000 feet, while it is
an easy matter to climb local noun
tains at least 1000 or 5000 feet
higher, to say nothing of Mount
Jefferson, which is within reach OF
any point along the Santiam, be-
tween Whitewater creek and Mar
ion lake, and of especial easy ascent
from Independence prairie OF
PAMELA creek.
Throughout this whole region,
from the present terminus of the
railroad, Detroit, to the summit OF
the Cascades, distance of over 40
miles by the proposed railroad
route, the water is pure and cold;
the air clear and sweet with the
resinous odors of fir, spruce, hem
lock, cedar, pine and juniper.
The tracts of timber is simply
beyond description; one must see
them to realize to what enormous
size frs, cedars, hemlock and pines
grow on these rockclad slopes ot
the higher Cascades.
While all the land lying within
a distance of IS miles in a direct
line on both sides of the summit is
now held in the United States
forest reserve, there are along the
line of the proposed railroad exten.
sion a large number of timber and
homestead claims that were staked
out about ten years ago. On these
one generally finds substantial
cabins, wells or nearby springs,
sometimes barns and other out.
buildings, and occasionally clear
tract on which is set out fruit trees
and bushes and other crops.
In the event of the building OF
the railroad, many of these claims
will be proved up on and developed
others will revert to the govern
ment, and thereafter all this region
will be common camping-ground
for the weary clerk, business and
professional man; place in which
every citizen may feel that he can
lie close to nature, commune with
her in all her majesty and not be
liable to trespass damages, hedged
in by barbed-wire or other fence,
or molested in his reveries by the
harsh noises of factory wheels,
laundering trucks and other pom
derous machinery.
This region, like all parts of the
Cascade reserve, is patrolled during
July and August by fire wardens,
whose duty it is 10 see that camp
fires are properly managed so that
the risk of firing the forest is re-
duced to minimum; also to ascer-
tain, if possible, the origin of any
fires that may be doing damage TO
the reserve.
These fire wardens, or forest
rangers as they are sometimes called

INDIA AND CAN ADA.
The Gold standard In These C0un-
tries-A Probable Run on the
bank of England.

Canada cannot merely have gold
standard without gold currency; she
can maintain her gold standard with
out any currency at all. She uses al
libtum United States currency; her
merchants keep bank accounts In New
York, Detroit and Chicago; one OF the
busiest and best banks in Chicago il
tie Bank CT Montreal.
If India had a gold standard COM
munity, say, so times as wealthy an
herself, containing las four is TO
eighty, say. 6,Ooo,ooo.ooo OF inhao-
itants, sepa rated from India by an im-
nginary frontier 5000 miles long, and
cid India use the currency OF this vast
pred omin n mt partner" the arguments
from analogy would be ineligible.
But il Canada had been saturated
with coined legal tender silver for a
hundred years; had she practically no
banks. and therefore no system OF pa
per credits; had one-half Of all tho
silver produced by the worlds mines,
after being coined. shaken down into
the boards of her myriads; we're those
boarding myriads only waiting for the
Importation and scattering OF goid
soyereigrs TO convert n depre
silver into an appreciating gold cur
rency. then it is safe to say that Can
ada could only satisfy her "auri sacra
flames" BY the wholesale suspension or
specie payments by other nations.
Let me put the argument In this
way: To give India gold standard
means that any Indian with Is rupees
shall be cble TO get a sovereign for
them on demand. If he cannot get a
sovereign for Is rupees, but is obliged
to give i6 rupees. then gold is at a
premium. the standard is Ineffective
and the exchanges fluctuate as to-day.
Now. we have in all England less than
hundred million sovereigns, and the
hoards of India have been reckoned to
contain $50 crores OF rupees-that Is,
Q 500 900. 900 OF rupees, or the equiva-
lent OF 156.0o0,000 sovereigns, at Is
rupees 10 the sovereign. The govern
