The Ljcky Pioneers
They met yesterday in La Grande those pioneers, those
sturdy men and women who have lived their lives and now are
waiting for the curtain to go down, waitinjr for the sun of lifc to
net, waiting for the final summons to the Great Unknown.
Lucky they are yes, positively lucky for they lived in Amer
ica when the country was in the' building process. They lived the
best part of their lives when it took some effort to live and dol
thiniix. That was before the acid of luxury Imgim to eat out the
foundation of American citizenship, nonce we say the pioneer.
were lucky. , .
Aljiny, of llierii today are witnessing the process of erosion
caused by too much wealth, too much luxury, too much ease am
comfort that may have started the downfall of the republic, but
they will not live to Bee the climax. Again, we say they are lucky.
Their memory is filled with acts of red-blooded men ; their tales
or history deal with things and with people, with conditions that
were epoch-makers, while the generation of today, when it grows
old, will not have those outstanding things to remember. It is a
scramble at present for which no memory need work overtime to
: record happenings out of the ordinary. Too much of everything,
-; too many things for everyone, too much wealth and everything
too easily obtained. .
$ '
As we looked those old pioneers in the face yesterday the
thought came forcefully that a few years, a very few years more
. will have recorded the end of all of them. The plainsmen, the des
ert rider, the trail blazer will be known only on the printed page.
No longer will there bo a Dunham Wright, a John L. Caviness, a
. All. I'ursel, u Mother Pioebstel or a Alother Grundy to tell with
their own lips the historic adventures.
What a sad thing it is to see these fine old people gathered
together for a day in pioneer galheiing, and to have so few of
the present generation who have come to this country in ease and
have lived in luxury because of the bravery and fortitude of the
pioneer, express willingness to give a part of the day to veneration
and proper praise of the men and women who made the northwest.

Might Wonder A Bit
A I Kill
I'Nllml
At the risk of having people wonder a bit why he has not in
Ill's several years as Uni'ted States senator from Orej;on advocated I v""'" l,ln- 1,1
a plan to help the wheat grower, Charles L. AlcNary has given out
a very strong interview to the Portland papers saying he will meet
'President Harding and ask that a guarantee (if $1.75 per bushel
on wheat be made by the government.
. Yes, people might wonder a little about such an utterance from
Senator AlcNary. t might also cause some talk about tho many
things which the senator has unfortunately started in Washing
ton, only to have the papers run the story and then have the move
ment drop out of sight and never more be heard of.
And this kind of a program is very regretful to men of this
state who had hoped to be able to keep a senator on the job for
i, period of years permitting him to grow into usefulness. We be
lieve that most people in Oregon had hoped that Senator AlcNary
would be the man who would grow and be big, politically speaking,
and possibly he may yet do that very thing.
It must be admitted that such un utterance as he had made
relative to wheat growing, at a time when he is running for re
election, has a twang to it that might be classed as propaganda
Surely it would be fine to have a wheat guarantee. lUlt why
has AlcNary postponed action so long on wheat when sheepmen
