A SMALL BUSINESS.

The Legislature of Illinois is making itself not only ridiculous. but con temptibie by its display of petty rhildishness with regard to Mir Conner ford. The refusal of the other mem bers to stand up, as Is the custom, while he was being sworn in was an sxhibition of petty spite fitted only to very small minds. Resolving. as they are said to have done to practically blacklist him ,and refuse him any recognition is what might be expected of pouting children. but not of men who are considered of enough importance to be law-makers for a great State.
 Do these small ca1ibre statesmen really expect to silence MT. Conner ford by such tactics. or to break the force of any charges he has made or may make? Common sense ought to teach them that they are going the right way to strengthen him. If his charges and accusations were without foundation there is an infallible way 10 show their innocence in a manner That will be satisfactory and conclu- Bive, but certainly they cannot clear Themselves by putting on an air of Injured innocence and refusing to take notice of the man who makes the rharges. If he was mistaken, or If he was actuated by malice they should be anxious to show him up, but if he told the truth when he virtually charg- ed that Illinois Legislatures are cor 'rupt they should be able to see that silence and contempt on their part only strengthens the suspicion he has aroused, and will cause the opinion to become general that he was telling the truth on them. That body is engaged ln mighty small business.

 If The News is correct in it's state- ments and deductions 1t would seem that there may be an important addi- ton to the resources of the South and Southwest. It is stated that the price of camphor has doubled since 1t began to be used in the manufacture of smokeless powder, and it is evident that as the supply diminishes and the demand increases the price will con- tinue to go up. Would it not be good plan to experiment with the several species on such scale as would show whether raising the trees will be "a paying business? According to the statements of The News it will require but few years to demonstrate its value, and certainly the demonstration need not be attended with any great difficulty.

THE FL PASo LIAR
How He Helps to Keep Up Human
 Interest in Arizona.

Of all the newspaper liars in the world the yellow correspondent who is permitted to live in Fl Paso takes the biscuit He lies on the slightest provocation without fear of punish ment f, this world or the next, and with appalling regularity.
 But what depresses one more than the stories he tells, which are harm less by reason of their self-evident eX- aggeration. mislead but a very few people, and brand the writer as an ass, is the nerve this correspondent has in sending out anything as news from Arizona. What does a man in El Paso know about startling and sensational things going on in Arizona a thous- and miles away. more or less? It is not his field, yet he seems to think that everything south of the Grand Canyon clear to the Isthmus of Pana- ma is his back country. The only thing in Fl Paso gets from Arizona Is by the telegraph which takes the news if there is any. to the outside world contemporaneously with its delivery in Fl Paso During the last few months various sensational things that have been sent out of Phoenix and that have actually occurred have been enlarged upon in Fl Paso until there was scarce ly the framework of the original story left, and sent out from that city a week after the circumstance originally occurred. Early in January there was a heavy rain here. A local paper pub lished a rumor which had little foun- dation. that the Roosevelt road was badly damaged. The story reached Fl Paso and a week later there was sent out of that city by telegraph, story that the Roosevelt road was entirely destroyed
 The occasion of this protest is a special telegram from the Fl Paso liar to the Globe Democrat The truth is bad enough in a case of this kind but Phoenix will take her chances with it i if the liar will keep his hands off. One might say in extenuation that there was foundation for the story only it was badly exaggerated, if it were not for one thing and that is that there is no law on earth that compels the Fl Paso man to send out reports of i happenings a thousand miles away and concerning which he knows noth- | ing. His weekly Yaqui war lie ought
 to be sufficient glory for one newspa- I, per correspondent.
 Following is an extract from the story in question, under an Fl Paso
 date line:
 At Phoenix almost every street in the town is river with a swift cur
 rent, and water three feet deep is rac- ing through the capitol building. There
 was consternation among Legislators
 when the wall of water struck the capitol building. The legislators ad- | journed pellmell. and members waded through waist-deep torrents to higher ground.
 "So far as reported, no loss of life has occurred, although numerous adobe
 houses have been wrecked and hun- dreds are camped on the outskirts to- night, homeless and without food oI clothing other than the scanty gar
 ments in which they fled"

IT'S RoADBED ON THE
MOUNTAIN DIVISION.
Several Novel Service Trains Will be
Put Into Commission April
On the Road.

Beginning about April 1, the o. r. &,
n. Co., will start several gravel trains
on the mountain division, having
opened up gravel pit at North
Powder. The track from La Grande
eastward will be graveled as has been
done from Umatilla to Huron. About
two feet Of first-class gravel ballast
will be distributed over the entire
length Of the La Grande and Hunting
ton division and the roadbed dressed
up in elegant condition for the heavy
travel expected this year.
The bridges are already in first
class condition, most all Of the old
wooden structures having been re-
placed with new steel bridges of the
latest design.
With the completion of the gravel
ing from La Grande to Huntington,
the o. r. & N. will have the finest
roadbed in the west.
The North Powder gravel pit has
been used by the o. r. & N. COM
pany for the past Is years at different
times. Much of the track from La
Grande to Baker City has been partly
ballasted in the past, but never so
as it will be finished this
season.
The heavy power now in use de-
mands a solid roadbed and the heavy
steel that has been laid over the en-
tire o. r. & n. system also needs
more substantial basis than it is posi-
BILE to secure from dirt or loose rock.
Several crews will be assigned to
gravel train service and at first the
entire crawling outfit will be sent to
North Powder, from where the trains
will work in both directions in ballast
ing the track.

DR., SCUDDER'S
STRENUOUS
CAMPAIGN
HAS BEEN ON a MISSIONARY Lee
TURING TOUR OF MONTHS
RETURNS SOON.

Rev DR.. Doremus Scudder, who has
been away from Honolulu for about
three months is expected to return jan
uary G.
He left here at the + quest Of the
American Missionary Society, which
contributes to the work of missions in
these islands, to make a tour of adj
dresses and lectures through the east
on the work, the need, and the pros
poets of missions. DR.. Scudder having
thorough knowledge of missions
here and in Japan, it was believed that
he would be able to arouse interest in
the subject as another might not, sim
ply by the force of observation at first
hand. So successful has he been that
the American Missionary Society has
kept him a little longer than it was eX-
pected he would be gone when he left.
AS illustrating the strenuousness of
his work, a letter received from him
sometime ago stated that he had made
forty-one address in forty-one days.
Since then he has made many more,
| travelling extensively in the east. His
assignments are made entirely by the
missionary society. Among other places
where he has made addresses has been
! the MOhonk conference.
