OUR GREATEST ASSET.

r. HAT the opening Of the Panama
canal is to have far more tre-
mendous effect on the coast and
especially Oregon than any Of us have
ever dreamed of is a certainty. It's
first and greatest effect will be the
placing of 0regon's unequaled timber
in the markets Of the world. This
state has practically one-fifth Of all
the timber in the United States, and
the reason It has not heretofore been
exploited is its remoteness from mar
ket and the prohibitive cost Of trans
portation. For this reason, the east
has perforce sought its lumber supply
from more available sources AS a
result Louisiana leaped into first place
as timber producer, but her supply
and the more available part of Tex
as Is rapidly disappearing and in a few
years will be gone. Michigan once the
leader in the lumber industry has been
largely cut over, and the eyes Of the
lumber buyers are turned to this coast
where practically one-half Of the total
supply left in the United States is
standing. The cheap transportation
provided by the Panama canal will
galvanlze the lumber industry into
new life, and 1t will spring into exist
ence like Minerva, full armed and
ready for the fray Heretofore our
lumber shipments have been largely
coastwise, with some Chinese trade,
and this with our local market was
the extent to which II could go. With
the opening Of the great markets Of
the east to us, the cut in year Of
two will be doubled. Ten years from
now we will be shipping ten times the
lumber we do now, or perhaps even
double that. The world needs 1t, and
we have the only available supply, and
until the vast mountain range, the
Cascades and that most magnificent
body of timber in the world lying
along the Oregon coast, is cut over
and denuded, the lumber industry of
Oregon bids fair to overshadow all
others, and perhaps nearly equal all
Others combined, in the value Of the
product This of course means many
mills, the employment Of thousands of
men directly and of other thousands
indirectly.
II is for this reason that the opening
of the p 10. & E. branch road into the
big body Of timber lying from Falls
City on to the coast and the making
Of Salem, as II were, the main business
city on that road, means 50 much to
Salem. II brings us in close touch
with the very heart Of this great in
dustry, and the coming of the Falls
City road into Salem for this reason, is
the most important event in Salems
history, not even excepting the COM
plction Of the Oregon & California line
now the s. p.
Next Saturday we are to celebrate
this event In connection with our
neghborlng towns and that celebra-
ton II commensurate with the impor-
lance Of the event. will overshadow
anything Of the kind ever held here.
II should be day Of rejoicing for all
and every one in the city, big and 1T
tie, old aud young, should join in maxi
ing ii one we shall all remember with
pleasure

And now, Mr.. Watson, 1 want to
apologize for this long letter. [ am
the oldest Of my family now living,
and I am anxious to get in commu-

Of Company K, Twelfth Georgia

battle Of Second Manassas, and espe-

with my little brother when he died
of wounds the next day after the
battle.
Your excellent paper has a wide

Dear Mr.. Watson: Like a good
many others, | see my subscription
to The Jefersonian is rapidly expir-
ing, SO [ herewith enclose one dol
lar, for another year. No one en-
joys your valued paper more than
do. I have read carefully and kept
up with the fight against the Roman
Catholics, and am right with you in
the battle. Have had the pleasure
Of hearing you speak in Tennille
and Sandersville on one or two oc-
casions. You may remember me
among your old Washington county
friends. | was glad to read in last
weeks Jeffersonian, a letter from R.
III. Fulton, of Homestead, Pa. I was
in the fight at Green Brier, Va,
against that 25th Ohio Infantry my
self. [ we'll remember how they
invited our 18th Ca. over to eat beef
with them, and we asked them to
come over and drink sWeetened cof-
fee with US. However, [ guess the
Invitations would have been gladly
accepted, had it not been for John
B. Gordon.
Would be glad to get letter from
Mr.. Fulton. Although, not knowing
him personally, I feel like he is one
Of ''The Boys" just the same. There
are only a few Of our 18th Georgia
boys in this Co., and we all have q
kind regard toward the 18th Ohio
Infantry.
I failed to set to Gettysburg to
the reunion, but l thought Of the
boys just the same I am now 81
years old, and don't feel like taking
such long trips. We had a grand
time at CHATTANOOGA, last fall.
Mr.. Watson, I trust you will be
spared a long life to continue tho
good you are doing. May health and
happiness be yours.

FROM ONE OF THE BEST OF OUR
OLD FRIENDS.

OLD FRIENDS.
Dear Friend: With a heart full
of love and friendship for you, Kwill
eDdeavor to write you a letter in
which I Join ali your many friends in
sending you congratulations for the
wonderful way in which God through
your instrun2 entality, gained the vic
tory over the base sons of beliaI in
the Z. 8. Court, for I feel assured Of
the fact that God was in the midst
OF the thickest Of the fight. I notice
some Of your friends seem to criticise
those others who were praying for
you and rot sending money to help
whip ~ t. but one of the great
est vic; yer won over the enc
mics Of c2use Of God, just one
man stouu ca the Lords side flied
with faith and prayed that God
would answer his prayer and let it
be known that God was God in Israel
and that he was his prophet, an0
fire fell from heaven and consumed
the sacrifice in the presence of $50
false prophets and back-sliders of
Israel Therefore we see that much
good is done by faith and prayer
Lots Of people can pray that have no
money. / don't know when | will
get done thanking Cod for giving
you such victory. I hope you may
live long to defend the noble cause
you are defending. I am persuaded
to believe that the man that fails to
see and aid in this conflict is reaIlv
blind to the best interest of our
American government. Strange it ie
that some so-called preachers can
oppose you in this noble fight for
American liberty. God pity their
ignorance and blindness, for if the
blind~ lead the blind they will fall
in the ditch and great will be the
fall. I know that ! prayed earnestly
that God would give you the victory
in your persecution. God pity the
man that would indict you, or the
jury that would convict you. Oh
how far they are from God and
right. Well dear brother Tom, I
would be more than glad to see you
and shake your hand the old fash
toned way and bid you God speed
and encourage you to go on in the
good work till the last. battle is
fought and the last victory is won,
Now I will give you words Of en-
COQIdSSlHSAt from the uOly blDIC.
When Senmacherib, King of Assy-
ria came to fight against Jerusalem,
King Hezekiah said to his men, be
strong and courageous, be not afraid
nor dismayed, for the King Of Assy-
ria, nor for all the multitude that is
with him, for there is more with US
than with him. With him is an arm
of flesh, but with us is the Lord our
God, to help us and to fight our bat
ties. Chronicles, 32:7-S.
Now I trust you will take courage
from holy writ and be strong in the
Lord and in the power of His might,
and be not afraid or dismayed for
Joe Sarto and the 5000 Catholic
priests in the u. S., and all their
bloodthirsty mob for the God Of
Israel is our God and will bring us
out more than conquerors through
Jesus. Will close by saying God
bless the JeffersOnian editor and
family, friends and sympathizers all
over this American continent l am
your true abiding, sincere friend,

FOR CITY

Brookings is going to have some
good advertising in the Automobile
Blue Book for 1914, which is the stand
ard road guide Of the United States.
1t will be remembered that this years
number of THE book had a description
Of the city, a map Of the town and a
write-up of the points of interest. Prof.
Solberg has prepared and sent in to
the publishers the following write-up
for the coming issue of the publica-
ton:
points OF Interest-Brookings is
the county seat Of Brookings county.
1t Is located on the Northwestern Rail-
