Lack of Order.

1t is astonishing how all of us are
generally numbered UP with the thou
sand and one hindrances and duties
which are not such but which never
theless wind us about with their spider
threads and fetter the movement of
our wings. 1t is the lack of order
which makes us slaves. The confusion

President Roosevelt who is travelling

speech at Raleigh, N. c.:
The preservation of the forests is vital
to the welfare of every country.
l do not believe in Government

railroads.
The delays of the law are proverbial
and what we need is reason able quick
ness OF action.
Private cars, terminal tracks and the
like must be brought under the control
OF the commission.
The most important thing is 20 give
this body the power to make its find

by giving it power; ii it finds given

all in some shape that really amounts

Morrow county at the Lewis and

at the fair in pushing our claims

NEED 5000 N EN-.
North Bank Road Will Use Inn
mense Force Of Men.

Five thousand men will be wanted
Immediately by Simms 4 Shields, the
St. Paul contractors, who will build the
road down the north bank Of the Col
umbia river for the Northern Pacific,
aod $4,000 laborers will find employ
ment soon in the Pacific northwest in
the construction of the various new rail
way lines that are thought now to be
reasonably sure Of beirg built, says the
Oregon Daily Journal.
S;mms 4 Shields will distribute to
their 5000 men approximately $780,
900 month, or not less than $4,000, 900
before their contract is carried out /;
while the so, 900 laborers wanted on all
the projected lines of railway will draw
in wages not much less than 500 900 a
month or a to.al of from $5,000,C0O to
s. 900 900 befo' the work is completed.
Added to this enormous sum of
money to be distributed to the working
men by the railway companies will he
the immense sums paid out in the pur-
chase of supplies and materials, most OF
which will be bought IN Portland.
However, not all the money expend-
ed for materials and supplies will 60 to
Portland business houses, for scores of
other towns will receive benefit. There
will be large purchases at points near
the many camps of construction gangs,
and the prosperity induced by the rail-
wav construction will! be diffused
throughout the entire northwest. Inas-
much as most of the new lines are pro-
iected in Oregon or in the territory that
makes Oregon towns the natural puv-
chasing point, this state will feel the
influence most favorably, and the in
lection OF 20 many millions of dollars
into the local money circulation will
cause wonderful forward impetus. In
the opinion of conservative fnanciers,
these conditions alone are enough to
forestall absolutely all possibility of
reaction after the closing of the expo
stion.
Simms & Shields are peculiar in tn ir
methods of handling men on construc
ton work Instead of issuing time
checks to be cashed in the usual manner
with brokers buying them at discount,
they will pay their big force of men
every night in cash.
"We have found that this is the bet
ter way to pay our men," said L. E.
Shields today. "It holds the men bet.
ter and saves them from the loss of the
that they usually pay brokers
who buy up time checks at discount.
When man knows that he is to get his
pay every night he works with greater
"Another reason for doing this is
that workmen of the class we demand
are more or less transient. If man
has to wait for his pay to obtain il

Rather Likes Texas.
Pleasanton, Texas,


| NONcTlDeT H. 1905.
EDITOR OF THE REVIEW
Herewith send you SI-hoping
you will continue my name OH your
list.
We had very pleasant trip to
Texas, spending about one month
getting here seeing some old
friends and acquaintance and many
new places.
Our first impression of Texas
was that IL was a warm country,
for October was rather tropical.
The only assurance was that the
natives were swel,ering as much as
We were and that gave Us some
hope that IL was not always so
warm. OF course they said Il was
very unusual To be so warm in
October.
The people are very kind to us
and received Us in true southern
style. So far as | can Judge, all
they want is for us To leave politics
aud niggcrs alone-and since we
don't feel like string up a hornet $
nest. we feel much inclined to
accept of those two features in the
case about as they desire.
San Antonio is one Of the oldest
and queerest towns in the United
States. With its Alamo, OF which
they are justly proud, il is also his
toric, and We had to read up on
the subject of Texas history.
This part OF the state has been
settled for a very long while but is
not developed as yet. Plenty of
land can be purchased for IS per
acre. The reason for cheap land is
that Il is yet range country.
Cattle is the only thing extensively
produced.
Ranches are Of from 5000 10
10000 acreS-and some much
larger. There are some smaller
farms and under good cultivation,
and some few irrigated by artesian
water that are truly garden spots.
The country is looking fine and the
people are, as rule, prosperous,
The hunting season opened on
the first OF November and there Is
no lack OF an opportunity To shoot.
Quail are plentiful; in fact. | had
not seen as many quail in IS years
as ! have in the past 30 DAYS,
Nor have ! killed as many. Re
sides small birds there are wild
turkeys and deer,
This country has its drawbacks
and discouragements. Rattle
snakes, wolves and other varmints
besides a few "thorns." The
weather is delightful at this time OF
the year. There has been plenty
OF rain but not the plenty ex-
perienced in Oregon. We often
think OF ST. Johns and wish we
could put in some OF our spare
time enjoying ourselves there.
Hand around literally our kind.
est regards To all our friends.
