harm of the section, but the educat-
ed, refined, experienced tourist will
insist upon much more than mere
views; they will want dispatch in
getting to and from them; genuine
comfort while lingering about them;
cleanliness, convenience, ease and
service of the highest order such as
are supplied in southern California
and we must furnish these in all
their completeness. And in the do
ing of this we will begin to under
stand the exact and stupendous value
inherent in our climate, scenic
beauty, mineral waters and environ
ing attractions; these splendid assets
belonging to us and which we are
now developing at such great cost of
time, energy and money.

Belgian Queen is Doctor.

Women's names in the stress and
tumult of war are unspoken but re-
membered, and among those that
will be present in the minds of all
is Elizabeth, queen of the Belgians.
Like her husband, the queen of the
Belgians is a fully qualified doctor
of medicine and a magnificent sick
nurse. 1t is only natural that her
knowledge of disease and her power
to combat it should be sound, for
she is the daughter of that famous
oculist, Karl Theodore of Bavaria
the specialist in diseases and trou.
bles of the eye, who during his life
time did an enormous amount o.
work in charitable directions.

The Rich Man.

| met the richest man in all the
world. 1t was neither Rockefeller
or Morgan. You would not know
him should I give his name. He
owned no stocks or bonds. He drew
no profit or interest from anyone.
Like one of old, himself the richest
man of his age, he had not where to
lay his head But he was rich. He
had health, worth more than mill
lions. He had a consciousness of
righteous aim, an invaluable aim, an
invaluable asset. He had possession
of his senses-was self-possessed in
stead Of being possessed by things
that tied him by paper titles. He
saw into the hollowness of systems
that have bewitched the world and
his eyes were open to visions of bet
ter things He heard the music OF
laughter and of joy yet to be. He
| felt the great inspiration of labor
lifting its hands from the mire to
the stars. He sensed the powers
that yet would come to man made
free by conscious control of his en-.
vironment. He tasted in advance the
fruits of faith. With an unfaltering
hope he pressed onward-a tramp

Amendment Votes
Finally Shown

The first complete report on all
the measures voted on by the people
at the recent election appeared in
the Portland Journal Sunday morn
ing 1t shows only four measures
carried and all the others were de-
feated. The total vote shows that of
the measures that failed, with the eX-
ception of the dentistry bill, the two
normal schools received the largest
affirmative votes. The Southern Ore
gon State Normal School received
the highest vote, although the East
ern Oregon State Normal School re-
ceived a somewhat larger plurality
than the former.
The Southern Oregon Normal re-
ceived S6,964 yes and 109,295 no.
The Eastern Oregon school received
S6,S54 yes and 100,179 no.
The dentistry bill received 91.S17
yes and 1O9,776 no.
All the other defeated measures
fell under these in affirmative votes
and several won and lost wherein the
total votes cast on both sides of the
subject was small The four meas
ures that carried were all constitu-
! tional amendments and were subjects
that people would readily have an
opinion on. These were prohibition,
citizenship, capital punishment and
consolidation of cities and counties.
No measure that the legislature had
the jurisdiction to pass upon carried
A study of the returns shows that the
people refused to entertain any meas
ure that the legislature was compe-
tent to pass upon and that the slo-
gans to vote no swept the entire
state and was in itself the single fac.
tor that defeated possibly over hall
the measures. The slogan worked
against every measure on the ballot
The vote on the normal schools il
the face of the defeat appears quite
encouraging. Many of the measures
were backed by immense sums o
money and extensive and thorough
organization, while the normal cam
paigns were necessarily limited in tn,
amount of funds and their alumni
> were small as compared to othe
schools.
There is no definite plan as to tn,
disposition Of the two schools. The.
still remain fullfledged state norma
schools. free from debt and the prop
erty of the state. and are not in mo
tion solely because of the want of al
appropriation.
Many of the other measures de
feated will be presented to the legis
lature, and under the new feeling ex
pressed I'm the balloting the legisla
ture will assume larger responsible
ties in passing upon measures than /
has in the past.

Thoughts from the Editorial Pen

Living 1000 Years.

Down in Topeka the other day
there died a man who had held firm
to his belief that he would live for
1000 years. He was 8S years old
when he did, and for half century
had told himself and his friends that
ten centuries would pass before he
paid the last debt to nature. The
jokester may be inclined to laugh,
to say that he missed it by 912 years
and sneer at the folly of a belief
that he could do what no mortal had
DONE" says the Great Divide.
Yet if you pause for a moment
there is an inspiration in that faith
of half century.
We may be sorry for the false esti-
mate of values which entered into
his calculations, not for the supreme
belief that he had held for years.
He was mistaken in measuring life
by months an dcenturies, in using
as the yardstick of realities, that
procession of days which he would
see.
To live ten times as long as the
oldest of men and twenty times that
of the average is hardly worth while
To live ten times as intensely
twenty times as much as others
o,,1l la fn 70 MT Il
vinity itself
To crowd into each day ten deeds
of kindness, to put into each month
a decade of gladness for others, to
mark each year with a century o.
lasting work-this would be /;
mighty aim in existence.
We don't know what he did with
his life. But, did he really fail?
Some things live longer than ;
thousand years. Others die in mo-
ment. 1t is only the best and the
worthiest than can stand the test o.
time.
Did he reach out hand of fellow
ship to some weather-beaten, foot
weary, down-hearted brother anC
with his words of encouragement
start him on the path towards sue
cess and usefulness?
Did that wreck turn from the roaC
of Encouragement to endeavor ant
impart that smile to some youth
who, as the wreck, needed tha
friendly touch to send him onward
and upward, to renew again ant
again the smile of the man wh'
would live to be a thousand?
If he did, that smile will be aliv,
ten centuries hence, as vitalizing a
it was the day it was given.
Did he plant new hope in the hear
of woman who came to him wit
her burdens? Did he send her on
into the world with renewed faith i
humanity to pass that inspiration o
to her daughters?
The papers said he died. Pei
haps he did. But, maybe, he wi
live that thousand after all--in hi
smiles, in his words of encourag,
ment, in the germ of hope plante
in the hearts he touched

"Since then there have been devel-
opments in the zone of the then pro-
posed canal without any protest from
or notice by the canal company,
among which improvements are the
opening of Avenue I from Bay ave-
nue. to Jabez street, the opening of
Avenue r from Ferry street to Peddie
street. the opening of South street
and Bay avenue from Pacific street
to Newark Bay, all of which cross
the route of the proposed canal.
An examination of the records of
the city show that Mrs. j. =. l. Robi-

I'm February, 1870, ]. B. G. Robin
son. president of the Canal Company,
addressed a letter to the Mayor and
Common Council, as follows
ITO the Mayor and Common Council
OF the City of Newark.
Gentlemen - Having determined
upon a route for the line of our pro-
posed ship canal within the limits
of the city, it is of the utmost i'm
portance that a street communication
should be made with the wharves
fronting the canal, and having been
informed that considerable delay will
be occasioned if in this case the usual
course is taken by the Common Coun-
Gil in its proceedings with reference
to the opening and grading of streets,
we would therefore respectfully sug-
gest to your honorable body that a
supplement to the city charter may
be introduced without delay in the
Legislature now in session TO provide
for the appointing of a board of COM
missioners to lay out and open two
streets to the bay, and such other
