J i , I A FAVORABLE OCT LOOK. Not for many months has the busi ness outlook been as bright as at the present ;ime, considered from a gen eral standpoint as well as locally. In Umatilla county the outlook for a favorable wheat crop is good. Though the rainfall during the first three months of the year was defi cient the rain of the past month has practically made up the shortage and a normal crop or better seems as sured. In the wool market the prices paid at the Pilot Rock sale were most en couraging. They were a considerable Improvement over the prices pai 1 I earlier in the si-ason and were a cent or two per pound above what the Pilot Rock growers themselves ex pected. It is fortunate too that the woo! market is looking up. If there is any Industry in eastern Oregon entitled to sympathy Just at present it is the heep business. Due to the tariff agi tation and other causes the price of wool was beaten down to a point far lelow what it should be. The low price of wool and the restricted re aerves have together "played hob" with the price of sheep. .So the grow ers have been hit going and com ing and fortunate is the concern that has made any money during the past year. So the better prices now offer ed for wool are truly welcome. The above paragraphs deal with lo eal conditions. The situation through out the country is also encouraging. The end of the Mexican revolution is a blessing to the business world for a war so close to home was neces sarily a disturbing factor. Especially so since there was a possibility inter vention by the United States would te necessary. The decisions of the supreme court in the Standard oil and tobacco trust cases have also done much to "clear the atmosphere." It Is plain that wholesome results, from a business atandpolnt, have followed those de cisions. The trusts now know where they are at. They are not in danger of promiscuous slaughter but each will get a trial upon its merits If trounht ir.to court. Xor should the pubiic suffer by the decisions. It Is quite generally regarded as hopeless to restore competition by means of anti-rrut laws. Hope for the public lies in barring unreasonable monopo lies and in governmental regulation of eervlce and prices. There has been wroiig doing by trust magnates and the guilty men should be placed in Jail. Put all the trusts, good an1 bad, should not be kUled because some men have abused their oppor tunities ,.nd violated the Inw to the barm of the people. With the general situation favor able, with prospects for good crops and with over a million dollars in building work in sight for Pendleton there is no reason for pessimism at this time und Foinc who have been feeling badly may well cheer up. Business is quiet throughout the country It Js true, but nevertheless things are moving along at a very satisfactory clip. head. marti is at Huker.. It is true that Raker Is a good town und has a splendid citizenship but its geographi cal position should make it an im possible .ispirnnt for the eastern Ore gon federal court. 1 Outsi,. of Raker county there arc just two counties that would profit through having the federal court head.U.vrt rs at Raker. Thev are Malheur and H.irney. both sparsely settled counties that have little if any federal Urination. There are seven counties In the proposed eastern Oregon district that would be con venienced by having the court lo cated here. They are Umatilla, Mor row, Uilli.un. Wheeler, Sherman, Crook and Iik Grant, Union and Wallowa people are as close to Pen cViton as to Raker. Pendleton has railroad accommo dations such as Raker never can have. Railroads enter. and leave Pendleton from five directions and , total or passenger trains arrive ind dep.irt each day. Another factor that should be (considered in the location of the east 'em Oreg'ti court is the immense am ("tint of litigation arising from the Uiaatilla Indian reservation. More ft dt ral litigation arises out of the 1 rtservation than from all of Baker, ' Ya'hour and Harney counties com , billed. Why make these litigants go laway from home for the trial of their ' cases ? t Under the circumstances it would l.c a blunder and a crime against prod government to take the federal court headquarters from Pendleton and locate it at Baker. Congressman Laffertv is takine an opportunity to pay a political debt. To please the ! Rakerites who voted for him he would "throw down" all the rest of the dist rict. Perhaps he feels safe because I he will not again ask for the votes oi eastern Oregon people. But he is in small business and his scheme should be shown up and defeated. for public docks. The Oregon Journal is a staunch advocate of public docks and It is do ing good work for the people of Portland by such advocacy. It is poor business for Portland to allow its waterfront to be monopolized by the railroads who will naturally de ny wharf room to competing ocean lines. It would be silly for Portland to have the Columbia river deepened and improved and then fail to sev that ships may secure dock facilities at Portland. ith the completion o the Manama canal drawing near and with the knowledge that the canal will make water competition far more effective than at present It Is especially necessary that publU docks be provided at Portland. Xor i:; it a matter in which merely the people of the metropolis are interest ed. Every merchant of eastern Ore gon, every sheepman and every v.heatgrower also has an interest in the subject. The railroads have the land. Don't let them take the ocean also. Medford wants the proposed Har riman university and is willing to give 1000 acres of land and $50,000 besides to get it. If they want a pri vate school they could buy the de funct Pendleton academy for half that price. This town is now putting its money on its public schools. Whether the high school debating team wins or loses in the state con test at Eugene today at least this city will have the satisfaction of having had a team In the final contest for three successive years.

John Marshall Harlan, associated Justice of the supreme court of the United States, who hit that "reason- able doubt" t'eeision such a hard knock with his dissenting opinion In the Standard Oil case, is seventy- eight years old today. He was born In Boyle County, Ky.. and graduated from Centre college, Kentucky, after , which he took courses at Bowdoin and Transylvania Universia. At the outset of his career he pracelsed law at Frankfort." He married Malvina F. Shnklin of Evansvllle, .Ind., in 1856. Shortly after his marriage he; entered politics and has served as county judge, district Judge, con gressman and presidential elector. He has been a candidate foj governor of Kentucky also for vice president of the United States. Justice Harlan has been a member of the supreme court of the United states for nearly thirty four years, and is the dean of the present bunch. If he lives another year he will have served longer than any other Jus tice of the court. He is six feet tall, broad shouldered and active in spite of his weight of years, straight as a pine anil his blue eyes are kindly ex cept when bent on a Judicial prob lem. He has been eligible for re tirement on full pay since Junp, 1903. but he has no thought of retiring. He proved his physical courage in the war and has not yet a full sum of that moral courage that has en abled him on more than one occa- s!on to wr.t" opinions dissenting from i the giet lawyers who formed the ma jority of the court. It has been said that if it were not for his years. Jus tice Harlan could head his party in the national campaign next year. Like every Kentuekian In good standing, Justice Harlan has a skilled appreciation of the good things his state produces. He is a devout churchgoer and plays a mighty tidy game of golf.

Among the youngsters belonging to a college settlement In a New Eng land city was one little girl who re turned to her humble home with glowing accounts of the new teach- er. "She's a perfect lady," exclaimed the enthusiastic youngster, "that's what she Is!" The child's mother gave her a doubtful look. "How do you know?" she said. "You've only known her two days." "It's easy enough tellin,' ' contln- ued the child. "I know she's a per- feet lady, because she makes you feel polite all the time." June Llp- pincotts.
