The 27,000 members of the bartenders' union may be
indicative of a memory, a state, or a hope.
If this weather continues much longer we believe the
Grande Rondb valley could be made'a heavily populated
winter resort.

What is news? Acco-ding to the modern newsp-iper
idea, news is made up chiefly of any interesting, readable
facts about which readers concern themselves. The func
tion; of the newspaper is to give those facts. They may
be entirely foreign to what the ncwspapcr'puhlisher bc
lieven, they may be oudtntioiis rmide by peop'e whose point
of view is thoroughly opposed to that of the newspaucr
or they may be utterly ridiculous in character. Yet, if
they are interesting facts, they comply with the greatest
news requirement. Some people who cannot appreciate the
true, fair and interesting mission of the news o'limns s"t.i
to think that a newspaper should closely censor its news,
that it should print only those particulars of news that
its publisher thinks the public should know about. In
other words, they would havo every co'unin' an editorial
column that is, until something viis omitted TUFA'
thought shou'd be printed. Fortunately, newspapers pre
fer lo remain just that KF.WSpapcis. Things v hit-h are
interesting and have news value will continue to occupy
the news columns, If not, then the newspaper crises ti
be what its naipe implies.
1 "TFIK PROBLBM OF SETTLKMKNT"
"The essential part of the federal reclamation policy of
the future," says Secretary Work in discussing various
projects contemplated for the Northwest, "is a program
of land settlement and farm development. Unless the set
tiers can be attracted to the projects and can remain on
them, there is no reason for building them ard t'.ie gov
eminent will not be reimbursed for their costs. The gov
eminent constructs irrigation projects, but it cannot d.a.f,
settlers." i i
Hint is a round policy, contrary as it may seem to some
of the plans for developing Oregon tenitory. And there
is no area in the Northwest that would meet the require
ments of settltnii lit any more satisfactorily than the Cu.iide
Uonde VaMey. Cue of the big difficulties with p.-ojm-ts of
the past is that there have been no roads, no schools, no
churches, no existing homes or improvements of eaiy real
value. Providing these has been a buiden of consiileinli'e
size to the .vett'ers and lack of Uiciii has ih c va.;ed t!e at
tractiveness of the distiict for many prospective citizens.
Here, nil those advantages are already in existence--a con
d.lion ;h..t v.ouid be icadily appreciated by the government
reclamation bureau. Settlement uouH not be a problem
