WALLOWA COUNTY'S GOLD MINE. . There may or may not be in Wallowa county large du pcnits of the valuable yellow metal for which so many people slave their lives away, but there-is in the existence of, the Wallowa Lake region a natural resource which is just beginning to lie tapped and which can mean more to the progress and prosperity of Wallowa and Union counties that several rich mines could possible produce. The Wal lowa Lake tourists' attractions will mean much in the next few years to the country in Wallowa county that must be traversed before a visitor reaches this Wonderland. It should mean much in new population, agricultural develop ment, and industrial growth. How much it will mean de- pQnds entirely upon how much eilort Eastern Uregon w:il put into the job of selling the nation on the wonders of Wallowa. i:.-r " ' .'iS.

A man whose horse .ran away upon first looking upon a steam roller described the engine as "an unsightly iron mon ster, with n boiler, cab and a fire and fuel chamber, mount . .cd upon large, heavy rollers and emitting loud and unseemly noises in its operation." ''.'' :! With n little editing this mnn's description would have served admirably as the description a country squire might have given fifteen years ago of a "one-lung" automobile Which had raced by him in a cloud of dust at a terrific speed of eight miles an hour. Such incidents are provoca tive of much laughter and derision on the part of a genera tion which through constant association has learned to look upon the steam roller and the automobile as commonplace objects. , People who have been reared in the cities and towns of the I limited States amidst every engine and device known , :thl(('tillra-mechft1iical civilizationscan 'no wore -sympathize jtrWthe ?xcemunt ;nnd nma?oinent experienced by those who see them for' the first time than the prehistoric could sympathize with the feeling of nwe which would pass over the modem urbnnitc if ho was to encounter n real flesh find blood dinosnuria.
