UNITED EFFORT

Congressman Williamson in an inter-
view published in Fridays Astorian,
puts himself 10 record as favoring an
open Columbia river, particularly the
mouth of the river. The Second dis
trict representative speaks out plainly
In opposition to further forest reserves,
in fact states that the interior depart
ment has already gone too far in reser-
walton business. The last withdraw
als-the one in Northern Wallowa, the
one in Southwestern Oregon and the
one includig Southern Crook and North
ern Lake and klamath. Mr.. William
son thinks would better remain subject
to settlement. The Eastern Oregon
Congressman also speaks unequiv-
ocally concerning the duty of congress
and the Oregon delegation in the mat
ter of securing for the state some of the
first money to be expended in irrigation
projects, since under the law Oregon
has contributed the greatest proper
tional amount to the irrigation fund.
There no doubt s.re those who will diff
fer from the Second district representa-
tive on his forest reserve policy, even
among the delegation. Mr.. Williamson
admits that we have use for the Cas-
cade reserve, while it is understood one
or two members are opposed to the re-
serve policy altogether. In the mat
ter of securing for Oregon liberal
appropriation for the reclamation of
arid land in Eastern Oregon, the dele
cation will no doubt act as a unit and
the people with the possible exception
Of few individuals who may be in
terested in getting control of the pub
lie domain under the Carey law, will
back them. What is OF great import
ance to the Northwest is contained in
Mr.. Williamson's statement to theeffect |
that here is tendency toward getting
together of the delegations of Oregon, |
Washington and Idaho, on matters per-
tanning to the northwest corner of the |
Union. There is no good reason why
the delegations from these three states |
should not stand together as unit up |
on measures looking to the development |
of the Northwest, and especially any |
measure having for its object the util-
ization of The Columbia river and it's |
tributaries as means of commerce. Con- |
certed action on the part of delegations /
Of different states is the strongest hope, /!
sparsely settled regions Of the country
have. As against the immense inter-
ests back of congressional delegations /
from Pennsylvania, New York or Illi- |
nois, as represented by corporations
and trusts as well as individual wealth.
a western delegation representing
of only a half million to
two million people is fearfully handi-
capped. The interests of Oregon, Wash
ington and Idaho are in a general way !
IDENTICAL and their relations naturally
Instead of the delegation
from Oregon, the delegation from Wash
ngton, and the delegation from Idaho,
they should come to be known in con-
gress as he Northwest delegation.

Representative Gillette of Massachu-

q good time. Like other cabinet otfi-
GERS, Mr.. Moody is constantly annoyed
by people coming to his house ON off
cial business They think they can
catch him a leisure instead of going
TO his office, and he has given orders
to his butler not to admit strangers
without sending in their cards.
One evening after dinner President
Roosevelt concluded TO go over and see
his secretary OF the Navy, and walked
leisurely from the White house to 142S
* street distance of three or -four
blocks The butler, who answered the
door, mindful of his Instructions, would
not admit the caller. He had never
seen the president and treated him as
he would have treated any other Wis
itor.
Mr.. Moody is sick he explained,

ONE IDEAS MANY USES.
How Many Jokes Can Be Made Out o.
Same Material.

New York Times: Very often one
idea serves for a good many jokes"
said Marshall p. Wilder, who should be
considered an authority on the subject,
as he has passed the merry quip with
more people than any man in the coun-
try today. General Sherman once
wrote me a seven page letter about
jokes and solemn things" he says. ut
was by way of acknowledging copy
of my book, People l Have Smiled
With IN that letter he told the story
of the lrishman who was too much
given to strong drink.
You must sign the pledge and stop
drinking said his priest, or you will be
SO saturated With the fumes of liquor
that some time when you try to blow
out a candle your breath will take l.e
and YOU will burn up
Then give me the pledge said Pat,
and he wrote: i hereby solemnly
promise never to blow out candle
again.
That is General sherman's story.
Now, here is the way fixed it up:
"sYou must stop drinking, Pat, or
you will go blind
We'll said Pat. I guess I've seer
about everything.'"

The late Rev. Joseph Parker was a
truly good man and never wearied of
doing all in his power for the benefit of
his fellow nlortals. He was willing to
admit, however, that as Il missionary
he would have proved a failure, and to
sustain this opinion once told the fol-
lowing story:
The criminal he said, whom first
tried my youthful hand upon was ac-
cused of the murder of a woman. Tht
case against him seemed a good one
and the future of the poor fellow looked
black
This man, when l visited his cell
welcomed me and my instructions in a
natterirlg manner. He could not talk
with m. Anough upon spiritual matters.
He asked to see me daily, and it did
my heart good to note how sedulonsly
lie studied the little black bible that l
gave to him.
IAN through his trial his loiety con-
tinued to be ferWent and deep. In the
end he Was acquitted, and I shall never
forget my last visit to him in his cell, -
few moments before his release and de-
parture.
ION my entry he looked up from his
packing. and, recognizing me, he ex-
tended the bible which had been my
gift'and which he had so carefully pc
8rused during his peril.
Here, sir he said, allow me to re-
turn this book to you. l hope never 10
have use for it again..

Maurice Fishbere of New York SAYS
There is No Such Race.
New York, Jan. 27.-At joint meet
ing of the American chronological So
ciety and the New York Academy of
Sciences. DR.. Maurice Fishberg, we'll
known anthropologist, delivered an adj
dress in which he made the declaration
that there was no such thing as a lie
brew race and that Hebrews We're not
descendant from Abraham, and Isaac,
and Jacob, but were in reality Arma-
mans.
The Aryans," he said were, up to
quite recently, considered to be race
on account of their linguistic affinites,
although in the light of modern anthro-
biological research we know that there
is no such thing as an Aryan race"
After citing opinion on the origin OF
the Semites, DR.. l'ishberg advanced
the theory that they were different from
other races in Africa, and not in Asia
as was generally believed TO be the
case, and reviewed the physical char
acteristics of ancient and modern Sem
ties.
