The count is going to be long and
tiresome in Oregon.
It is proposed to ask the state legis
lature to appropriate $50,000, or $25,
000 for two years to advertise Oregon
scenery.
The idea is to attract tourist to
Oregon.
Hotel men, advertising men, auto
mobile men, bankers and others are
interested.
It is a good idea to advertise Ore
ton scenery, to attract tourists, etc.
But it is not a proper function jf
the state to appropriate this money.
The gentlemen who are interested
should get the money elsewhere.
A a matter of fart, the railroads
do this work anyway as a matter of
business n order

EDITORIAL COMMENT
Little Mud-Slinging.
It is a satisfaction to note that there
is little mud-throwing in this cam
paign locally and that the election
promises to be conducted along that
line. "Let the best man win" is an
old rule that the verdict of the people
will settle soon. Union Republican.

The Right Course.
In its effort to secure funds for the
building of a state highway between
La Grande and Pendleton and in mak
?ijg application for federal funds for
eid in building a new road from Elgin
to Milton and for improvement of the
Thomas and Ruckles road the county
court of Union county is moving in
liie right direction and is working in
an effort to secure for this section
that which is ciue it ia the matter of
improved roads, and in the end means
ptactically a continuation of the now
f-mcus Columbia highway from the
present eastern terminus to the Idaho
lir.e.
The fact that State Highway Engi
neer Lewis has made a thorough in
spection of the route between La
Giande and Pendleton and highly rec
emmended the same leaves no doubt
as to the results. We are also assureJ
that reasonable aid will be secured
from the government for aid in build
ing the Elgin-Milton road and in the
improvement of the Thomas and
Ruckles road running northwestward
from Summerville
The Recorder is particularly pleased
with the activity shown by members
of the court in that wn have contend
ed for many months that a state high
way should be constructed through
northeastern Oregon to connect with
the Columbia highway. Elgin Recorder.

i Will Operate Sawmill.
I Dave McKenzie, well known busi
ness man and postmaster at Summer
ville, is installing a sawmill on a tract
: of timber north of there and expects
. to make a good run during 1917. The
mill is one that was originally used in
Ladd Canyon and has a capacity of
about 30.000 feet daily. The work of
setting up the plant is now under way
but most of the efforts of the winter
months will be devoted to logging.
Tributary to the first setting of the
. mill there is said to be at least a mil
lion feet and it is hoped to cut that
amount during the coming year. EV
