What volume of wealth is be-
ing brought into the Gem State from

The business life of the whole state
is being quickened by the diffusion OF
wealth taken from underground.
The demand for copper is said to
be worldwide, Japan being in the
market as we'll as the European coun-
tries. At the same time domestic
consumption is constantly increasing.
While there may be some doubt as
to the heavy sales of the red metal

reach that price if the present demand
continues for any length of time.

Duerock's testimony corroborated
that of Huff. 1t was brought out that

the Twenty-hrst street crossing just
ahead of the Garvin sisters. He testi-
ned to seeing the danger into which
the. young women were driving, and
said he called to them. 1t is improb-
able that his warning could have saw

they seemed not to have heard. Hut
chins testified that the engineer sound.
ed blast of the whistle when within
100 feet of the crossing.
Engineer Ward testified that he
pulled the whistle cord at the same
instant he applied the emergency
brakes. He thought he was 50 yards
from the girls at that time. In none
of the testimony was it claimed the
train was running less than a IS
mile an hour speed. 1t is said this
fact was given weight by the jurors
since the crossing marks the begin
ming of the townsite and the prescrib-
ed rate of speed is limited to 12H |

ANYWAY 1T WILL SETTLE IT

At last there seems to be hope that something will be
done toward settling the action to be taken as to the
forfeited railroad grant lands The house committee on
public lands which has the matter under consideration
has agreed on bill which it will report with its findings
and recommendations to the house soon.
The bill as finally agreed upon, gives the counties in
which the grant lands located 30 per cent of the net
receipts for the land within them The state will get 70
per cent of the net receipts which will go into the school
fund.- the general reclamation fund will get 40 per cent
and 10 per cent will go to the federal treasury.
This is far from satisfactory solution, but as it is
better than seemed probable or even possible short time
ago. Oregon should smile as though she liked it. She gets
something out Of the wreckage and that is better than
the most optimistic dared hope.
1t was largely due to the untiring and intelligent work
of Congressman Sinnott that this much was conceded
Congressman Macarthur, though not a member OF the
committee given permission to speak and heartily
indOrsed Mr.. SinnOttS efforts.
One thing was done thoroughly ands that was to-
eliminate John Lind from the bill and cut him off from
any possible participation in the benefits of the bill The
status of contract lands however has not been decided
definitely and the courts may have this part OF the JOB to
finally dispose Of
Another feature of the bill is that in the of cut
over lands the homeseader will not be required tOpay the
$3.50 per acre. but will only be asked to comply with the
other requirements of the homestead law This is good
feature for those who have tackled the JOB OF heWng out
farm from Oggedotf lands know that it costs all the
land is worh-and then some. 1t may serve though to
induce some hardy and industrious ones who are not
afraid of hard work and lots of it, to locate these lands
and in the course Of time make them productive.
While not mentioned in the bill reported yesterday
it is understood that when the United States takes over
the lands it will at the time pay the taxes now due
This is anoher good feature of the bill for the land grant
counties have had to carry the expense Of county govern
ment and Improvement without any receipts from these
lands for several years The payment of these back taxes
would lift pretty big load from shoulders that have been
overloaded in this line No arrangement satisfactory to
everybody could have been made and we can accept
the settlement of the matter Of benefit no matter just
how it was settled

LOST, A CITY WOODPILE

Portland has lost thousand cords of wood Whether
it has just been misaid slippery Dick has swped it
the measuring stick used in receiving it only ten
inches to the foot has not yet been decided All that is
known is that that amount of wood that should be in
the city woodpe is not there. One investigator at first
thought it due to the bark being knocked off, but
while this might account for small portion of the loss it
could not the entire deficiency rank outsider
suggested that perhaps when it lost its bark also
cropped its ears and bobbed its tail This however, is not
worthy of serious consideration anymore than the sug
gestion that maybe it of "heart" failure well
as loss Of bark There might be other places where it
dropped out causes of its disappearance but why
worry? Nothing that can be done will bring the wood
back to the pile or the shekes passed to someone
for it's cutting and delivery back to the city treasury
Public property lost is like virtue umbrella
under similar conditions-gOne forever.
The best thing to do is to forget it. Otherwise several
experts and embryo Sherlock Holmes will be put the
job of seeking the lost wood pile and the price Of another
thousand cords of wood will be expended in tracing the
other thousand Cords and when its whereabouts dis
covered it is discovered nothing will have been gained
but the satisfying of abnormal public curiosity What
more need the public know than that the wood is not?
Why inquire where it has gone since it is known it has
return ticket?
