The annual report Of the city clerk
presented last evening to the city
council, showed that the city is en-
tirely out Of debt, there not being one
outstanding warrant left unpaid. This
report marks a new era in the history
of Watertown. The city has been in
the best financial condition for sew.
eral years past. There have been
sufficient funds on hand at all times
to take up the warrants. bnt as they
were not due until later, they could
not be paid
No other city in the state enjoys
this distinction. The taxes in Water.
town are lower than those of any
other city in the same class and yet
many of the other places are heavily
in debt.
Sewers Up Again.
The two big sewer projects, one in
the First and one in the Second ward.
were up for little discussion last ev-
ening and the council decided that the
best way to handle the projects would
be to make separate districts of each
of them. AS it will take some time
to get this plan formulated, the coun-
ell appointed May 8 as the day on
which it will meet as a committee of
the whole to decide the matter.

COMMONWEALTH DAY
TO Be CELEBRATED
HOLIDAYS AND PUBLIC
DISCUSSIONS MARK EVENT
Third Annual Commonwealth Confer
ence Will BE Held I'm Eugene in
January-ImprOvem of Country
Life Conditions to BE Discussed.

The Third Annual Commonwealth
Conference, which celebrates Oregon's
admission into the Union as a state,
will be held in Eugene at the Univer-
sity of Oregon on Thursday and Fri
day, January IL and 13, 1911. Ques-
| tions of vital public and civic interest
will be discussed by citizens who have
given the subjects the most thought
and study. Holidays at the university
will be declared, the students will at
tend the sessions in a body.
The reason for celebrating Com
monwealth Day by the university Is
found in the theory that Oregon's best
capital is the high purposes of its in
telligent citizenship. The conference
and discussions are directed simply
| to organize and apply this capital for
effective achievement for the good of
| the people of the state. 1t is believed
| that the example set before the young
people of the state can not but lift to
a higher plane the life of its citizen
ship. The scope of the university's
effort as a servant to better citizen
ship is being extended and systematic
ed, with a view of infusing into the
spirit of it's students stronger sense
of obligation for the welfare of the
state as a whole.
One of the leading subjects for dis
| cussion at the coming conference will
| be the Improvement Of country life
| conditions, so that they will outshine
| those of the city in the eyes of the
country boy and girl.
The conference will also aim to pro-
mote the building up of health con-
| science among the people, so that they
will know menaces to public health,
shun practices detrimental to it, and
make a vigorous and persistent fight
for raising the physical efficiency of
| the people of the state. The social
( service of the physician, his training
| for it, and his duty towards it, will
| be discussed.
| The enlistment of the members of
| the bar Of the state in active and
| constructive work for securing largest
| and most economic justice through
| laws and courts of the commonwealth
| will be another aim of the coming
| conference.
The women of Oregon sustain an
other organizations for the study of
problems of social welfare. The uni
versity is especially desirous that the
| sentiment created amongst the intel
ligent womanhood of the state shall
be made effective in achieving social
betterment. The coming conference
will consider ways of cooperation with
the women's clubs.
The alumni of the university, as
beneficiaries of the state, are of
course, under obligations for effort
towards encouraging and co-ordinat-
ing all social agencies for common
wealth uplift To secure more enthu-
siastic and energetic espousal of this
responsibility by the students and
graduates of the university, will be
one of the main aims of the confer
ence.

KLAMATH FALLS WILL
GET POSTAL SAVINGS BANKS

Government officials are preparing
to open the first postal savings bank
in oregon at Klamath Falls the first
of next month. The bank will be the
only one in the state and will be much
in the nature of an experiment to
learn whether or not such institutions
will be popular. There is no chance
or Portland having one for some time
to come.
Postoffice officials generally are
not enthusiastic over the postal saw
ings bank experiment, chiefly, they
SAY, because of the nature of the law
passed by congress. They claim the
experiment will be very expensive,
that it cannot bring any returns to the
government under the present law and
that it will necessitate the expenditure
of millions to make 1t of benefit to
many people.
They blame the interference of the
bankers of the country and the con-
sequent emasculations OF the law for
what they fear will prove to be its in
adequacy Interest is fixed at the
very low rate of per cent with in
itself will not prove attractive, it is
feared. But the law provides that
| the money shall be loaned out to the
banks by the government at IA per
cent and that not more than 65 per
cent of the deposits shall be loaned
| out at one time. Thus the actual in
terest feature alone will cost the gov
| ernment something over 43 cents for
every 500 deposited, to say nothing
of clerk hire and alterations in post
office buildings necessary to accom-
modate the banks.
To establish a bank in Portland 1t
would be necessary to rent a building
outside of the postoffice and the num-
Der of clerks required would be con-
siderable. Until the size of the ap-
preparation for savings banks is in
creased there is little likelihood of
their being established in the larger
cities The appropriation for this
year was only $225,000, barely enough
to start the banks in a small way.

NORTH DAKOTA PEAS.

Another profitable source of revenue
has been opened up for the farmers of
North Dakota. 1t Is in raising peas for
the big seed houses. The st. Paul
Farmer has the following:
TO those who believe that North Da-
kota can grow nothing but wheat and
other small grains, it will come as a
surprise to learn that one of the big
gest seed firms in the United States is
to get large part of its supply of
peas on contract from La Moure county
In this state. The project started with
w. M. Tre9dwell, a successful farmer
Of Adrian, who had previously been
engaged in pea growing in the state of
Michigan. Noting the thrift of wild
peas in the neighborhood of Adrian,
his adopted home Mr. Treadwell con-
ceived the idea that garden peas could
be as successfully grown under proper
management. So convinced was he of
this fact, that he went down to Detroit,
Michigan, and discussed the matter
with a prominent seed house, which
has engaged in pea growing. The
seedsmen became interested and sent
at expert representative of the house
to Adrian to look into the possibilities
of the situation. AS a result, Mr..
Treadwell and a number of farmers in
his neighborhood have contracted 500
acres Of their land for the production
OF peas for the Michigan house.
The contract provides that these 500
acres shall be used for pea growing
alone. The scotsman supplies the seed.
which is paid for after harvest in the
fall, and binds himself to buy the whole
marketable crop at 1928 a bushel. AS
the production ranges from Is to 30
bushels per acre, or an average Of rs
bushels, the profits of the crop are ap-

give instructions as to the proper

UNION LABOR HERE.

Fargo is entertaining the Minnesota
North Dakota Federation of Labor this
week. Delegates are present from
every city in either state in which
there is an organized labor union. Il
is a meeting of the most intelligent
representatives of all branches of or.
ganized skilled labor in the northwes
and Fargo is proud to have them here
The session will continue three days
during which many matters of import
ance to the labor unions Of this Sec
well known in union circles will be
heard in addresses and action will be
taken on matters of vital interest to
the members of the organizations rep
resented here.
Not everyone is likely to endorse all
the principles of the trades and labor
unions. To an outsider some of their
plans may even seem entirely wrong.
| But every thinking person in the
slightest sympathy with men who earn
: their living by laber-must feel an in
terest in the broad, general movement.
The primary foundation of unionism
, is an uplift. The ambition to advance
! to become something more than an
ordinary laborer is the original incen-
| tive to organization. AS result the
labor unions include the better ele-
ment-the higher type Of the working
men.
They are those who are able to use
both their brains and their hands and
through organization and federation
they seek to better their financial and
their social conditions--to create bet
ter conditions for their associates. for
themselves. for their children.
Being human, members of labor un-
, Sens frequently make mistakes. AS a
rule they are the first to admit them.
They do not claim infallibility and
when once they fail they seek next
time to profit by their errors.
The day of the wild-eyed, rampant
labor leader is forever past. In his
place"are conservative, far-seeing men
who investigate thoroughly and make
a movement only after the maturest
elaboration. 1t Is this element that
is compelling respect for organized
labor and lending dignity to the move
ment. 1t is they to whom Fargo is
hostess this week and the city bids
them welcome
As an employer of union labor in all
its mechanical departments, from it's
first issue-The Forum joins in the
kindly greetings that are everywhere
being extended to the representatives
OF the Federated trades labor.

DARIUS GREEN INDICATED.

porations-municipaI and other
wise-to say nothing of individuals
seem to be bent upon the mission of
making the aviators rich whether thew
VIII Or no. Prizes-running into fig
ures that a few years back were re-
garded as fortunes sufficient to satisfy
the ordinary mortal-are being offered
on every hand with a cheerfulness that
must be very gratifying to bird men.
There are not many to peck at the
golden bird scotland the opportunities
are certainly alluring. To make a for
tune by flying about for a few hours
seems to be an easy road to riches,
and doubtless the future will prove
that money will make the aeroplane
go-even as 1t has kept the mare trot-
ting along these many years.
In the spectacular achievements of
air navigation eyes are turned sky
ward-and the populace with hands
appraised, is waiting to place it's crowns
OF laurel on the brows of those who
sweep the heavens.
How much do these modern aviators
owe to that band of devoted enthus-
lasts which were called cranks not
many years ago? 1t was a standing
Joke that any man who thought of
flying machines and went tinkerins
about strange looking contrivances-
which he hoped and believed would
some day soar into the air-was to
some extent irrational. To put II
plainly he was thought to be crazy.
TO what extent those hardy pioneers
OF the air, who bore the banter of
ridicule for the sake of an idea have
contributed to the conquest of gravity
is a problem that does not lend itself
10 mathematics. There is no doubt
that from the crude machines which
they constructed many of the basic
IDEAS have been perfected.
1t requires courage to defend an IN
ulNiuual ldea against the temper of
the crowd, and it is only the enthu-
siasm born of belief that will compel
a man to work alone-without prece-
dent or professor-to demonstrates that
the impossible" is fallacy. The &C.
centric man who periodically hauled a
strange and ungainIy machine to the,
