confirmed victim of the drug
some months ago. He was re.
peatedly arrested as a vagrant,
and finally he was sent to the
State Insane Asylum for treat
ment. He was nuisance here
to himself and to others, and de-
spite that he tried to reform and
get away from the drug, he
would fall again and succumb to
the tempting influence.
Moore has returned from stay
at Salem, where he was scienti6-
cally treated. He was seen on
the streets here today, looking
ruddv and kealthfu1. He said
that the treatment he had, re-
ceived from the authorities is the
best thing that has ever happen
ed to him. He declares that he
is perfectly well.

Will be Right for Once.

An old line democrat was in
town yesterday and while discuss
ing the political situation, said:
II have voted the democratic
ticket since 1868. My father
was democrat before me and 1
voted the ticket straight. 1 fol-
lowed democracy when the party
platform said that the reconstruc-
tion policy of the republican par
ty was wrong, but democratic
speakers and leaders now tell me
that we were wrong. I voted for
Horace Greely On that issue. I
voted with democracy against re-
sumption of specie payment, but
modern democracy now says that
1 was wrong. I voted for free
trade against protection, and
yelled myself hoarse three times,
for Cleveland, but democracy has
chided and abused me for it ever
since. I followed w. J. Bryan
and free silver through two CAM
paigns, and contributed my mite
for his success, and now democ-
raey says that was wrong again.
l am sick and tired of this ram.
bling, wandering system of poll
tics, and I have quit. During
these many years have noticed
that republican platforms de-
manded certain measures, and
when the party was in power it
passed them. l made up my
mind several months ago that if
the democratic party continued
in its course toward the Philip
pines, deuouncing the govern
ment in its policy, I would not
vote with the party that is always
wrong. am going to cast a
straight republican ballot and be
for the government. "-Albany

No One Could Shirk.

"I just came in to tell you
that I am warmly in favor of the
plan outlined in the GAZETTE
for the improvement of county
roads, said A. R. Brown as he
entered this Office Saturday
morning. 81 own ass acres of
land about four miles west of
this city, and am therefore a tax.
payer, but am in favor of rails
ing funds by taxation to secure
good roads. I had rather pay
500 taxes for this purpose than
contribute 500 in cash or work.
"By the taxation method every
property owner would have to do
his share; by the contribution
scheme only those who wished
would join in improving the
roads. For instance: I might
spend 500 in improving the
road along my property, while
my neighbor would do nothing
for the betterment of the road ad-
joining his land. He would get
the benefit of my improvements,
while I plowed through the mud
when got to the road that he
should fix. The roads leading
out from the towns should be
fixed first. The nearer you ap-
proach centers of population, the
more people use the roads. If
the road is improved for a mile
of the distance between Corvallis
and my farm, I get to use it just
as much when I come TO town,
if it is improved for a mile out of
Corvallis as I would if the i'm
Drovement was along the first
mile of my trip"

Farmers Growing Hanghty. {.

Commission men, market men
and caterers all combine to rail
at the honest farmer these days,
says the Oregonian. They say
he is waxing fat and becoming
rich and naughty. and while
they admit that "the farmer feeds
us ALL" they .asseverate that he
wants to "take all we have for
feeding US and then does not
furnish what we want and are
willing to pay for" The long
abused farmer has been having
''the long end' flor some time,
and is getting high prices for
everything he has to sell.
The Willamette Valley is the
great source of supply for farm
products for a vast and growing
territory. Tacoma and Seattle
and towns all the way north to
Dawson look to the broad and
fertile Willamette Valley for
supplies, and Portland has to
import poultry from Missouri, as
we'll as salmon from the Sacra-
mento. This condition of things
is to continue and be intensified
during the coming years: and
the farmers of the Willamette
Valley and their wives and
daughters might as we'll realize
the fact and devote more time
and labor to raising poultry, fruit
and potatoes, for they have the
world for a market.

MORE RAILROAD TALK.

Theory in Railroad Circles That Recen
! As stated in our issue of last Tuesday
| the recent incorporation in New Jersey
| of the Oregon & Southern Railroad Co
has led to well-defined theory in rail
road circles that this move e1nbodies q
scheme for a railroad to connect the Cor
Wallis & Eastern Railway with the Cen
trail Pacific at Winnemucca, New. 1t is
presumed that the recent talk of line
from Eureka, on Humboldt Bay, north
eastward to Welser or Boise, was the inn
mediate cause of the Incorporation of the
Oregon & Southeastern at this time. III
this Humboldt Bay road should be built
it would penetrate a country that could
also be served by line from the Corval-
lis & Eastern to Winnemucca, and the
first road in the field would establish
trade routes that might not be easily
changed afterward. 1t is less than $50
miles from the present eastern terminus
of the Corvallis & Eastern to Winnemuc-
ca, SO the enterprise would not be out of
proportion to the capital of the New Jer-
sey corporation, 81 900 900. The fact that
something like $1,000 would be required
for an incorporation fee in that state is
looked upon as evidence that the people
who are behind this project have ser
ious purpose in view. Their identity is
carefully concealed behind the names of
K. K. McLaren, Horace F. NJ. Gould
and Evan J. Dudley as incorporators.
1t is said that the G. P. Huntington
estate is heavily interested in the Cor
Wallis & Eastern Railway, which is plain
ly in condition of arrested development.
The Huntirgtons recently got several
millions from the sale of the San Fran
cisco street car lines, and must have
much more than is required in the de-
of their trolley system in
Southern California. Therefore, it is |
that Fl. E. Huntington, who |
the estate, is favorable to carry
ing out at this time long-cherished |
scheme of his late uncle to build across
Oregon to Winnemucca, and thus make
something of the family's present hold
ings in this state.
There has been a good deal of talk
ately about a Pacific Coast outlet for the
Gould lines, and it is deemed possible
hat this Oregon & Southeastern may be
designed in the Gould interest as well as
n the interest of the Huntingtons. This
vould be carrying ont plans that were
ormed many years ago. 1t wonld also
e an in vasion of Hartman territory by
competitive line. But every new line
D the Pacific seaboard must invade ter.
itory that has been assigned in some
manner in the present adjustment of
interests, and it certainly cannot lie that
o more railroads will be built to the
acific.
How the Oregon railroad situation
ould be affected by this new enterprise
annot be foretold. 1t is possible that
le new forces that bring power enough
, bear to have the Yaquina Harbor
lade available for vessels of deep draft. =
, that case good use could be made of
le Corvallis & Eastern. Or it may be
lat the new railroad power will insist !,
4 getting down the Willamette Valley i
, Portland. These are incidents that I
ill take shape when the en- terprise t
lall be further advanced. I

An Englishwoman who was pres ent when De Wet addressed the men and women in a concentration camp after the signing of peace sends a summary of his remarks. The speech is a remarkable and strong mixture, displaying at once De Vets natural chagrin and his determination grimly to abide by the promise he has given. He said: "Of course you will all like to ask me the question. Have we lostT In word, must say, Yes Our flag is fallen. It is dead and buried. never to rise again. and we are now under a new government, which we have to serve. not as we'll as we served our own, but a great deal better.
