' . . -Then came the agitation for the JIcNary-Haugen wheat bill and all of us in the wheat growing sections set out to help get the measure through congress. Not that it was sound business, but it seemed that there are so many un sound governmental affairs that assist other lines of business,- we were anxious that the producer should share in the. .governmental game. That bill is dead and will hoc be passed. , .What is the next move? There were but two roads, namely, cither bring the price-'of fami products up to a level with other commodities or 'bring the other commodities down to a level with the prices of farnl products. " It looks like the other road must be taken. It is the bji? road, the lasting road, and the sooner work begins oj it the sooner will America reach a stable condition. ' We believe this will be the Coolidge altitude, lie will Udvocutc the other road. isCongmssi Adjourns ; The adjournment of congress calls itttontiun to very little accomplishmed at the last session lasting six months. Ihe game of politics has been the chief sport and It1 has been given right of way over sound legislation. One man in the cast described it very well in u letter to a -friend in La Grande when lie said: "Our billion dollar Congress has proved to be a small-bore country cross-roads grand jury." The political medicine that has been made in the last session, instead of aiding either of the old parties, has tshaken the faith of the people in both branches of con gress. Time may cure it, for time is a great healer, but surely at the present moment there is little confidence left among the pet pie in both branches of the national assembly. lll-;iNl. SPRINGS. Ore.

' JULY FOURTH - 1 AT MAXVILLE (rontlnued from p.iire 1) The Fight Is A Long One All reclamation projects were beaten before congress adjourned. The slaughter occurred with such men as Iorah and Sinnolt pleading for consideration but they re ceived it not. They know the west must have some of these projects in order to save sections of the country, but congress, is composed of a great majority of members who never faw an irrigated field of alfalfa, who never witnessed the desert blossom as a rose because of irrigation. Nat urally these members were against any further government expense on imgation. And it set the whole scheme of the west back for some time to come. Constant work will be necessary to ever get reclamation up to the point it was during the last ses sion, and it means n long road for congressmen and Sena tot's from the western states to travel. Accoin modal ions for unloiiiohlllstH Who arrive here are assured. Ma llle r1eiidH a hearty weleniue In " on und your frlendM the more 1 he merrier." How Ibt Von Prefer Your Ice 'renin Scrtir.

The high goal set up by the new organization more than three years ago has been reached. The last year's rapid development of sweeninc sunri. orities in riding, and driving, and all phases of performance, leave no doubt of that.
