NO. DMiO, WE .CAN'T
THINK OK IT.
The state of Idaho may be anvthlnir but It's far from be-
Ing, back ward. At east it's not .backward In wanting. some
thing that belongs' :to"Komebody else and" hot backward .in
iisking, for'ity The' stiip' of Malheur county running south
from Ontario -to the Nevada -line offers a very -ideal means
(ii the eyfes of Idaho Ixiosteis) to' secure n shorter and bet
ter route by highway from Southern Idalio to San Francisco
and 'California markets. Since the needed territory is. now
in Oregon and Oiegon hasn't built that wanted highway for
Idaho, our neighbors on the east propose to annex the re-
quirea land and build the highway themselves. , A very pro
pitious men. a scneme lor bringing Idaho closer to the coast
that is worthy of much praise from Idaho's standpoint. But
wo are reluctant to say, it doesn't seem likely that realization
is possible for a little while., Oregon, for some reason or
other is a bit jealous of the territory within its boundaries.
True, not all of it is valuable. Some of it is quite the oppo
site, as n matter of fact, and even the most optimistic op
timists can hardly anticipate. utilising sonio of the barren
territory to be found around the state. Wo suppose it likely
that most of this country desired by Idaho doesn't nroduce
very much in taxes; it probably isn't over-populated. Con
sidered from a good many angles, there's quite a portion of
itiaineur county (not to mention numerous other counties)
thnt might well be given buck to the Indians and result in
everyone congratulating themselves on a good riddance of
baa rubbish. Give it to the Indians, give it to the magpies,
give it to the coyotes give it to anybody, but to Idaho
never! Wo wouldn't have the people of Idaho think for n
minute, 01 coume, that we are stingy or tight or anything
me iiini. we woman t want them to feel that we are in-
liuencea to n negative decision just to thwart n pert project
and a pet highway of their lending to the outside world. No,
mat s not tne case, it s a matter or sentiment, we suppose.
And sentiment must be sej-ved. Like a freckle-faced, red
headed, bow-legged boy, he may lie nothing to look at and
good for alwut the same amount but we love him just the
ame. Who knows but that he will grow up to lx un all.
American football star or president of something? Who
knows but what that particular section of Malheur county
may be resting on a field of gold, or may Income the future
oil producing center of the world, or something equally im
possible? No, Idaho, we can't think of it but we thank
you for the compliment just the same. Be patient and may
be Oregon will build your highway for you some of these
flays, you never ran tell. Stranger things have happened.
Hut we like our Oregon, every corner of it, good, bad, or in
different. And we're going to keep it.

Do You Know
that the Heart is the only machine of which we
know that will absolutely last a life time?
As a pump it is so perfect that in the average
life time it pumps a total volume of nine million
gallons of blood, making two billion five hun
dred million strokes.
Uninterrupted nerve supply is vital to the
function of the heart. Be sure that there is no
pressure along the spine where these nerves
leave the spinal cord and it will perform it's
duty throughout life.
