There has been so much said of late
of demands being made upon some
individuals to permit their names
used for some offlce or other In the
state, that there is q big increase Of
that class of men who have been
deluded In the idea that sooner or
later some Office would break away
from its mOOrings and seek them ont
as objects OF its special quest. There
used to be 3 good many who took
stock in the theory that the Oftice
should not only seek the man, but
that If the man was really qualified
and worthy, in some way the office
would seek him out and conquer him.
But this delusion has largely passed
away and is no longer entertained by
those who are chosen to look after the
affrirs Of the public. The custom
may have been frequent in those good
old days when men preferred to look
after the their private business mat
ters to accept e place in Office, but
since the advent Of that American
product known as the hustler, that
fellow who gets the idea into his head
that he wants an Office and starts out
70 hustle for it, the faat is the Office
does not have time to seek the man,
because it is too busy seeking to
dodge the hundreds of men who are
seeking 1t, or playing hide and seek
with it. In other words, the Office of
to-day that is worth accepting lie
not compelled to go begging around
for some one to take it in out Of the
cold or wet. All it has to do is TO get
out In the open somewhere, and
It can be delighted by the heroic
efforts made by those who are seeking
it and fall into the arms of the seeker
whose limbs are nimble and whose
determination is warranted not to rip,
raveI or run down at the heel. The
securing of an Office in this day is 6
science that the novice finds very hard
to master. Men seem to be in the
manner born to hold office, and they
know It the first time there is an OPP
pOrtunity offered for them to grab ct
the coat tail Of one passing their way.
It is 3 day and age Of going after
those things one wants, and the man
who sits quietly by and waits for an
office to come along and yank him OF
the perch win grow rheumatic and
gray through inactivity In his waiting.
The fact is also that the people rather
admire 3 man, who, IL he wants an
Office, win get q move on him, say he
wants It and then goes oHt and hustlea
for it. It may not be the best for
public service that this condition ex-
lists, but It exists all the same, and
probably win for some time yet to
elapse.

from that point the road will run

The CoIfaxSpokane road is most
feasible as a business proposition
and would be the means of giving a
very large country an outlet for
produce to splendid markets. The
main line will be about 100 miles
long and would stimulate various
industries, the one to be effected
most at the start being sugar beet
raising. An electric line will be
able to handle all sorts of freight
cheaper than the railroads can.
That has been the experience wher
ever electric railways have been

Short Course Benefits.

A special and general invitation
is being sent out by President Bry-
an and Royal P. Jarvis, professor
of mining at the Washington Ag-
ricultural College, to all interested
in mining to attend the short course
in assaylng, which opens in the
school of mining at the state college
January 4th. AS the name i'm
plies, this is a short course in assay
ing in which the principal points of
assaying are taught, and in the
brief course several men have
learned to be quite proficient assay
ers and have gone into the mining
camps and secured regular employ
ment at good salaries, while the
knowledge gained in this course is
of great value to men interested in
mining and prospecting. Any one
who desires TO attend will be given
all information upon the course up
on writing to President Bryan or
Professor Jarvis. The tuition is
free and board and lodging can be
obtained at reasonable rates.
Every farmer, fruit grower and
nurseryman who can possibly do
so is urged to attend the short
course in horticulture, which opens
January 18th for a course of ten
weeks. This course will be under
the direct supervision of Professor
Booth, head of the department of
horticulture, who will be assisted
by other members Of the faculty
and experiment station staff. Spe-
cial courses in grating, budding,
pruning, spraying, planting, and all
the various works pertaining to
fruit culture will be given. 1t is
the intention to crowd all the work
possible into this brief term, and
the work will be so divided that
one who has not the time to remain
for the entire ten weeks can gain
fund of useful knowledge by attend
ing for few days or week. The
question of spraying to kill fruit
pests will be made special study,
and all the information that can be
gathered on this subject will be
disseminated at this course.
President Bryan and the faculty
consider it almost imperative, in
view of the rapidly increasing in
terest in fruit culture, that every
man who intends to engage even in
small way in fruit growing should
attend this course. Full informa.
ton regarding this course, which is
! free, will be given on, application.

They Want New State


land Oregonian:
1t will not be at all surprising if
the agitation for a new state in this
neck of the woods is taken up soon
In fact, the desirability for a seat
of government for the accommoda-
ton of large area of country be-
tween central Idaho and British
Columbia and extending east and
west according to the notions of
different individuals, is often
talked of, and, according TO men
from different sections of the terri
tory mentioned, will one of these
days be live subject,
"There is Idaho, with her pan
handle sticking up between Wash
ington and Montana like a sore
thumb and it may as we'll be Topped
Of" says one. AS matter of fact,
the FIVE northern counties of Idaho
are effectively cut off from the cap
ital at Boise by the mountains of
central Idaho. To 60 from this
point to Boise, one must start in
the opposite direction and travel a
whole day before changing his
course in the direction of his in
tended destination. By either the
Northern Pacific or the .. r. Il y.
route one must go to Pendelton,
Oregon, to get start.
Under these conditions the ordi-
nary citizen is not kept in close
touch with the city where his laws
are made, and outside of those called
to the capital on official business,
the people of Northern Idaho are
perhaps as familiar with the streets
of San Francisco and St. Paul as
with those of Boise.
The people of eastern Washing
ton are likewise lacking in famiI-
iarity with their capital at Olym-
pia. An ex-member Of the Oregon
legislature, speaking of the present
political divisions of the country,
maintains the entire original Ore
gon territory should be redlvided
by extending the boundary line be
tween Oregon and southern Idaho,
and make a state of eastern Oregon
and southern Idaho, another of
eastern Washington and northern
Idaho, while Oregon and Washing
ton are restricted to the territory
west of the Cascade mountains.
A man from western Montana
and prominent in poiitits in that
state, suggests as new state the
FIVE northern counties of Idaho, the
three western counties of Montana,
Flathead, Missoula and Ravalli,
the eastern tier of Washington
counties and possibly Wallowa
county, of Oregon. Such a divis-
ion, he contends, would answer
topographic and geographic re,
quirements, and give the people III
cluded an opportunity to select
seat of government that would meet
the convenience of all.
