Portland, Ore, Feb. 1.-THE Central
Labor council OF this city has forwarded
to the state officials of all the states, as
well as to the labor organizations, a
statement of conditions in Oregon. 1t
seems that through the efforts Of hostile
employers, promoters, real estate agents
and others, the country has been flooded
with alluring advertisements of the great
opportunities in this state and large
numbers of people have migrated here
to find that they have been hoaxed. The
result is that there is large number
of people in the state who are victims of
these advertisements The statement
concludes with stating: 1--WE welcome
to our state men and women who have a
true understanding of conditions in Ore
gon. There is room for such emigrants
to aid us in the development of our re-
sources. What we protest against is
the INSCRIPTIONS exploitation Of deluded

BIG INCREASE IN
 RAIL WAY SALARIES
FEWER MEN WERE EMPLOYED LAST YEAR, BUT WAGES
 WERE HIGHER.
At the Same Time Earnings Were Less and Operating Expenses
 Greater.

In view of the engineers demand it is interesting to note that substantial increases were made in the wages paid railway employees during the fis- cal year ended June 30, 1911. Re- ports filed with the interstate com merce commission show that the total compensation to the employees of rail- ways over 300 miles in length was $1,005,277,2 The total wage cost to the railways for the year was greater by $41,S6S,S22 than it would have been at the rates of pay in effect during 1910, and greater by $69,297,- 67S than it would have been at the rates of pay in effect in 1909.
 Notwithstanding an increase of 2,l0S in the miles of rail operated there were fewer employees on the payrolls on June 30, 1911, than on June 30, 1910, by 31,037, yet the total compen- sation paid to employees during 1911 by S49,976,216. This is greater than the increase in the gross earnings of the railways by $22,595.121. The net revenues of the railways, which are what is left after paying operating expenses fell off by s4,09S,539 during the same period in which compensa- tion increased nearly $50.Oo0,0OQ.
 These figures are summarized in bulletin just issued by the bureau of railway economies, which is based on officials repots made by the railways to the interstate commerce commits ion and which exhibits in detail 6 comparison of the aggregate compen- sation to the different classes of em- ployes, the number of employees of different classes and the relation tc railway traffic for the fiscal years, 1909, 1910 and 1911.
 The summary of revenues and ex- penses of the steam railways over 800 miles in length for December, 1911, shows that for the calendar year 1911 total operating revenues were less than for the calendar year 1910 by $27, ,69s,7s0 and the net revenues less by s22.2s6,7s4.

JUDGE GRACE WRITES
 OF REAL COURAGE
Thinks That Bravery of Mrs. Straus of the Titsnic,IS To Be Most
 Admired.

In the Little Rock Gazette yester- day Judge A. B. Grace, of this city, says.
 q noticed in Sundays paper a dis patch to the effect that movement has been started in Washington city to raise sum of s5o0,000 for the pur- pose of building monument to the late Maj. Archie Butt, who lost his life by she sinking of the Titanic. It is further stated that Congress is to be asked to appropriate $2e0,000 or this sum out of the public treasury for this purpose
 While 1 would not in the slight est degree detract from the honor and praise :hat is due to Maj. Butt for his gallantry under most trying cir cunstances, still it strikes me that the proposition referred to is piece of wild extravaganza inspired by foolish sentimentality. In the first place, Maj. Butt was a soldier; it was his profession to face death when called on without fear. In the second place, he did no more than any enc of the scores of other hum- ble and obscure citizens who went down with him. He simply met his death like a man and not like 9 whimpering coward. The fact that he was aide to the president seems to have inspired great many peo- pie with the idea that his social prominence entitled him to be dis tinguish.ad above others who were equally meritorius.
 "In this connection. I desire to say that if monument is to be built to anyone fer courage displayed at the time of the great disaster, l think it should be to Mrs. Isadore Strauss Here was the case of an elderly lady, who after being removed to a place of safety in one of the life boats, voluntarily left it, returned to the deck of the Titanic and said to her husoand We have lived to- gether fer long time and we Will not part now" If sublime courage in the face of an awful death is to be rewarded and commemora:ed by I monument at public expense, it
 ie entitled to 1t above all others
