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. The declaration is made that the improvement in the service is recent. Again we are inclined to be doubtful, as we find none of our acquaintances to have noted any improvement so far as schedule time is concerned. We have in Oregon a railroad commission and hope that no mistake has been made in the creation of this body.

In the event it is proved that such a commission is for the best interests of the Oregon public, it be proper to voice an admay ditional hope that time will prove that fearless and efficient men constitute the personnel of the commission. It is a selfevident fact that there is work for a railroad commission of stamina in Oregon. The commission plans for an early investigation of the numerous complaints that are becoming noisy in certain sections and will meet in Salem to consider 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 asperating 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. AFTER WEARY MONTHS. Sufferings of W. 0.

Trine are Ended -Funeral Sunday. W. O. Trine, familarly known among Oregon athletes as "Dad," for the past four years physical director and trainer at the Oregon 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 remarkable courage. Brief services were held at the residence at 9: a.

m. Sunday conducted by Rev. G. H. Feese, after which the remains were taken to Eugene for interment.

Mr. Trine was a very popular man, ot OAC and his death is widely mourned. He was one of the 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 he ran professional foot races, and had a record of 10 seconds for 160 yards. At one race he was credited with doing the 100 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 club 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 had gone ahead with his work while in great physical pain and worked up to the last minute. He was hooked in the jaw two years ago by a cow, which 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 him alive.

Trine was born in Oregon about 40 yerrs ago. He is survived by a wife and two little children all of whom were with him at the end. The deep sympathy of the community is extended the young widow and her little ones in their great bereavement. Don't Laugh. Don't laugh at a boy who magnifies his place.

You may see him coming from the postoffice with a big bundle of his employer'sletters, whichhe displays with as much pride as though they were his own, says an exchange with much truth. He feels important and looks it, but he is proud of his place. He is attending to business. He likes to have the world know that he is at work for a busy concern. The boy who says "we" identifies himself with the concern.

Its interests are his. He sticks up for its credit and reputation. He takes pleasure in his work and hopes to say "we" in earnest. 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 kindly 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.

Yesterday they went on to Newport for an Mr. Berry is now on the Dallasoutinhin division of the road.

Guy Davis returned yesterday morning from an over-Sunday visit in Eugene. In six weeks more the colonist rates to Oregon will be in effect again, continuing for sixty days. In order to get the full benefit of them, every commercial organization should get busy with their correspondence with prospective settlers During this vacation period the boys and girls have the time to write their friends "back East" and tell them about the Oregon country. As an illustration of what can be accomplished by this means, the school children of a single district in one of our coast counties doubled the school population of that district merely through correspondence, necessitating the construction of an additional school building.

Prominent among the innumere. ble freaks of nature is the Balanced rock, situated in the heart of the Rocky mountains, This mass weighe about 500 tons and is poised, slightly tilted, on a base perhaps 1 five feet across.
