E Pendleton proposes to have a green golf course. 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!
