A Port land expert has gone over the present club holdings and says they can have a good course for $30,000.' If that' is true, jPendleton' golfers' will be getting off cheap. La Grande had about $45,000 in its original goat course and salvaged a few thousand before throwing it In the ash can. Now the new course represents an investment of about the same amount maybe $50,000 and no club house. But no one will deny Jthat it is a credit to Eastern Oregon and a joy to golf bugs. Golfers will tell you that it is worth the money, we suppose, and there is no doubt that Pendleton will have a similar ex perience. The Pendleton club now- has 46 members and aspires to a hundred. La Grande has at least eighty playing members and nearly a hundred paying members, the increase in the number of those who play as well as pay being due to the excellence of the course. It should be so with our neigh bor when a good green course is realized. The golf bug thrives, we would judge, under favorable conditions. And Pendleton has a lot of old men who have nothing better to do than become properly susceptible. A CALIFOKNIAN ADMITS SOMETHING ; . The dedication of the bridge completing , the Redwood Jfighway was the recent occasion for Governor Young, of tho sun'WC.wnriTi) Califqrijiato jjiurneyorUi 'to the stale'liiio anil across into Oregon. At Grants Pass jtho visiting chief executive is quoted fls saying , "After traveling over the smooth, velvety pavements of Oregon and then riding over the rough, bumpy roads of California, I became a good roads enthusiast and have for tho past five years endeavored to have California equal tho highways of Oregon." Read that again.. The governor of California is quoted. Ho admits that Oregon roads are superior to those- of his home state. lie admits that he has been trying to bring California up to the Oregon standard for the past five years. And he does it publicly. . Can it be possible that Governor Young was misquoted? Wo think not, but tho statement is unusual, very unusual, coming from a Californian. It's one of the most modest things we ever heard of coming from a California!!. Even a goodwill envy, coached to utter sweet nothings and to Bay a lot of. things with his fingers crossed would hesitate to desecrate his California!! heritage by admitting that Oregon highways were now or ever had been better than those of the slate to the south. ' The only explanation that offers itself is that Governor Young may regard his present term as the climax of his pub lic career, that ho plans to retire with the coming of another election and live in quiet seclusion the rest of his days. He couldn't possibly be planning another term of office and bo guilty of tho admission that California's mads are inferior to those of a sister state. It just isn't done in California, you know. The only thing they admit down there is that every thing is bigger, Ix-tler, boominger than it is' any other place under the hot, hot sun. That's the universal religion in California. It is the birthplace of this thing called n "super iority complex." : Well, after nil, we admit admiration for Governor Young admitting some things about Oregon. When it conies to be ing smug and set-up, we can qualify in Oregon when the question of highways is brought up. Not that they are per fect, of course, because we have one or two stretches in mind that could do well with some spending right now, and not that they are greater in mileage than some other states. But when you want to go somewhere in Oregon and propose to get there by automobile, we admit that the expreience is just a little bit more ideal than can be found in other states of (lie country. And we are glad that Governor Young has made that discovery- even if it costs him his job! CIIICAfJO CASH CIUCAOO, June 25 aV) Wheal: No. 2 hard $1.14 Vi ; No. 3 northern prlii $1.119 41.
