"A slow train through Arkansas" is a saw common to all of us and the book itself has held the interest of many readers. Slow trains in Oregon furnishes food for reflection nearly every day in the year for Oregonians who need something to think about.

It is claimed that the service is getting better than it was, but we are inclined to be pessimistic on this count. Tho declaration is made that improvement in the service is recent. Again we are in clined to be doubtful, as we find none of our acquaintances to have noted any improvement so far as schedule time is concern ed. We have in Oregon a railroad commission and hope that no mistake, has been made in the of this body. In the event it is proved that such i commission is for the best in terests of the Oregon public, it may be proper to voice an additional hope that time will prove that fearless and efficient men constitute the personnel of the commission.

It is a self evident fact that there is work for a railroad commission of stamina in Oregon. The commission plans for an early investigation tho numerous complaints that are becoming noisy in certain sections and will meet in Salem the matter in its various phases. It is possible that increased traffic of every description over the railroad lines in the state is direct evidence that there are things doing. While very exasperating and inconveniencing, the present train service may denote a better general condition than has been the rule in the past. At the conclusion of the session of the railroad commission we may secure 'more light on the subject- But be the conditions as they may the railroad compaines should be up and doing and ready to meet them- AFTER WEARY MONTHS.

Sufferings of W. O. Trine Ended Funeral Sunday. W. 0.

Trine, familarly known among Oregon athletes as 'Dad, for the past four years physical director and trainer at the Ore gon Agricultural college, died of cancer at his home in Corvallis at 7 o'clock Saturday evening, after many months of intense suffering borne with the most re markable courage. Brief services were held at the residence at 9: a. m. Sunday cond ucted by Rev. G-H-Feese, after which the re mains were taken to Eugene for interment.

Trine was a very popular man ot OAC. and his death is vtiilplv mnnrnpil. Hfl was one of tSe best-known men in the state among: athletes. "Dad" Trine had coached athletic teams in nearly all the colleges in the valley, among them being Monmouth, Willamette, Pacific University and the Agricultural college. He was one of the oldest trainers in Oregon.

Before he became a trainer lie ran professional foot races, and had a record of 10 seconds for 160 yards. At one race he was credited witn aomg me j.uuj yards in 9 4-5 seconds. His record for the-220-yard dash was 22 seconds. In 1905 Trine coached the Multnomah track team, and always assisted the chib team whenever opportunity offered. His friends say he had done as much for Oregon athletics as any other man in the state, and he had phenomenal success at Corvallis.

His death was not unexpected by his friends, who have marveled at his wonderful grit while suffering from the cancer. He I had gone ahead with his work I while in great physical pain and worked up to the last minute. He was hooked in the jaw two years ago by a cow, wnicn caused a growth on a bone. He had one side of his jaw removed, but relief was only temporary, and he declined from a man of great strength to a mere shadow. It is said that only his strong constitution and grit Kept mm alive.

Trine was born in Oregon about 4o yerrs ago. He is sur vived by a wife and two little children all of whom were with him at the end. The deep sym pathy of the community is ex tended the young widow and her ittle ones in their great bereave- ment. Don't Laugh. Don't laugh at a boy who mag nifies his place.

You may see him coining from the postoffice with a big bundle of his employ-er'sletters, whichhe displayswith as much pride as though they were his own, says an exchange with much truth. He feels im portant and looks it, but he is proud of his place. He is attend- -1 TT 1 A mg to Business, tie lines to have the world know that he is at work for a busy concern. The boy who says "we" identi fies himself with the concern. Its interests are his.

He sticks up for its credit and reputation. He taken pleasure his work and hopes to say "we" in ear nest. The boy will reap what he sows if he keeps his grit and sticks to his job. You may take off your hat to him as one of the future solid men of the town, Let his employer do the right thing by him. Check him kind' ly if he shows signs of being; too big for his place, counsel him as to his habits and associates, and occasionally show him "a pleasant prospect of advancement.

A little pride does an honest boy a heap of good. Good luck to the boy who says "we." Real Estate Transfers. W. W. Rosebraneh to T.
