PRE.MDENPS MESSAGE The whole of the President's message contains about 25.000 words; but long as it appears it deals with vigor the multi tude of important subjects now attract ing the attention of the people and on which they expect congress to act at this session, and in language so plain that any citizen can understand exactly what he wants congress to do. " In persuing it the nterest of the reader is so thoroughly en grossed that he forgets its length. The most exacting critic can not And a sur plus sentence or a word that could have been omitted without detracting from it clearness. The determination to be understood by every body seems to have been the controlling one in framing his sentences and in the choice of the words he used. The portion published in this issue of the Observer is a fair sample of the style, and shows as plain as English words can that the President has made no back down from his former position on railroad rates. ' ' " ' tie United - States. The largest of ihe several grants was for common schools which aggregates 5,529,706 acres, the second in size is the quantities given the state to build wagon roads, which totals 777,096 acres. The bulk of these lands have been disposed of but there are many thousands of acres of state land yet unsold. It would be an unpleasant job to attempt to show what Oregon now has to show for all these acres. There is a splendid opening in La Grande for a business college. A good school would not only have the Union county Meld but would draw considerable from Wallowa county. The President' message contains over 25.000 words equal to 20 columns of the Observer. W give that portion of the message in full refering to corporations and railroads, which is receiving the un divided attention of the people and will hroughout the present congress. Did you ever figure up how many hand lings are required to get a sack of wheat to the nearest railroad s'.atori from the wheat farm in Union cojnty to L:ver pool. England? If tie wnai ion notga into a ware house or dock but is loaded direct from train to train or from car to The Dalles Chronic'e has just become a member of the Scripps News Associa tion. It will certainly please its readers, as it is the best afternoon service on the coast. OREGON LAND ' According to the records of the United States Gen ral land office, Oregon has rjcaived 6,055.395.- acres of land from It is to be hoped that the next' Oregon legislature will be composed of men wio are not sent there for the sole puroose of voting for a particular person for the United State Senate. The state has many interests that deserve attention. but they have been sadly neglected in the senatorial squabble of the past. It is of more importance to our people to have good country roads and schools than any man, however pleasant to hear talk, as United States senator. Senator Depew states the report that he intends to resign his seat is absurd. He spoke in truth that time, it is absurd to so much as dream that a man of hi class would think of resigning be cause of having been exposed. Those men never resign; they always desire to hang on the skirt of respectability until shaken off by the inexorable turning of time. It is said of Depew that ha finds a very cold atmosphere in Washington. Whereas he was formerly sought after, he is now left out The fact that this must gall him was no doubt the cause of the origination of the report that he would resign; but those starting the re port had not made sufficiently careful staiy of the breed. ship there will be six handlings. If it goes into a warehouse at Portland and another at New York city from which itV has to be trucked, there will be four mare As much of the wheat goes into such ware houses the bulk of our wheat is ' handled ten time to get it onto the Liverpool wharves.
