INLAND DI E CONSIDERATION
Hie pica of the La Grande chamber of commerce and prom
inent producers and shippers in Union county yesterday to
President Roosevelt's longshoremen strike mediation board
for a voice in the arbitration, seems well founded.
The coast dock strike throughout has lcen one of great
seriousness to inland shippers, who after all provide the pro
duce that flows through the coast ports and makes them
what they are. Talking with shippers in this section, it is
found that some of them already have suffered loss of busi
ness because of the strike, and in other instances costly
delays in shipments have occurred. It is to their interests
that settlement be effected as quickly and as fairly as pos
sible to all concerned, and it would seem only just and right
that the interior should have representation on the board
jf arbitration.
A DROUTH LESSON
Months ago. a noted grain speculator on the Chicago board of trade who
was buying wheat and frankly said so. declared that It was Impossible
for the middle west to harvest a gram crop In 1034. Successive years of
drouth, he argued, made a full crop Impossible, however favorable the
iU'.t weather might be.
. That was month ago. Instead of having a good "growing" year, these
same areas have been stricken by the worst conditions of the dry cycle.
For the past week, temperatures have ranged upward to new all-time highs.
If the Chicago operator was rightand he makes his living by being
riant on just such matters then the hope for the early restoration of pro
ductivity In the mlddlewest is thin Indeed. It will require several seasons
of abnormal rainfall to restore the productivity of these lands. In the
mejnwhlle. visible surplusses of wheat, corn and other staples originating
In that devastated area must soon be consumed. The era of overproduction
for agriculture is probably ended.
Nor is this midwest situation nt all new. It will be recalled that tides
of Immigration swept over the prairie states, took up fertile lands and re
duced them to cultivation, only to be driven back by the destructive forces
of heat and drouth. Close students of those settlement failures predicted
then that these lands should never be cultivated, that farming there was
too uncertain. But words couldn't stop pioneers who. today, are reaping
the reward for their heedlessness.
Out of It all should come a new recognition of the value of reclamation,
an understanding of the safety valve upon farm, production by those lands
in the fur west whore, despite abnormal drouth conditions, crops are sure.
The nation, ere this experience is written into the pages of history, may
yet turn to Idaho and her sister states of the great west for the food that
wind and sun and hcut have destroyed In the east. Caldwell (Idaho) News-Tribune.

In an Iwue of; the Observer of July
13, 1934, It Is stated, "In checking
over historical facts, it Is learned
that one of t ie mountains In the
county bears the name, not of Mr.
Brcwn, but of his wife. Mt. Fanny
In the eastern end oi the county was
named for Mm. Brown."
We quote an article from the late
ex-Governor T. T. Gcer's book "Fifty
Years In Oregon." published In 1912
it follows: "The beautiful peik on
the summit of the mountain range,
east of Cove, Is called Mt. Fanny in
lienor of Mrs. Fanny McDanlals. one
of the first whit- women to reach
the .summit, which she did in June,
