O. K. AIKEN, Managing Editor 8U0SCRIPTI0N Ono Ycrfr, $2.00 THH K.XHIIUTH AT Tim I'AlIt From ono end of tlia innln oxtilblt linll to the other, at tho Malheur County Knlr, tho hulldliiR Is packed with exhibits of tho prospects of tho valloy. In point of number, as well as In tho character of tho exhibits tho dis plays this year surpass by far fairs O of recent year. Particularly Is this truo of tho Community uxlilblts In which tho raco between Adrian, N)-b-sn and tho Uoulovnrd has resulted In tho assembling of tho flnncst tho valley produces. This Is tho real object of tho fair, and having been given tho promln enco It deserves Is bringing tho an - nuul exposition back to Its own. Wlilla ovoryouo wants to bo enter tained during Fair wcok, and tho program boforo tho grandstand Is ar ranged for that purpose yet after nil tho County Fair In primarily an ed ucational Institution whero by com petition and by axampto of what others havo dono tho nvcrngo rancher Is Mired with a dcslro to better his product, incronso his own prosperity and thus servo to Incrcaso tho wealth of tho community as n wliolo. It Is questionable how muuii tho Usual ballyhoo feature such as carni vals contribute to tho nttractlvo power of tho Fair. Thru custom thoy Imvo grown to bo n larger part than they should bo In such gather ings, Hluco tho Fair this year Is n success as an educational Institution without theso Inducements an object loKHon for future fairs' Is glvon. It It Is determined thnLmicli attractions tho uocuwtarny, It will not bo hard to sccura them In tho future. Tho fact tho tho rnrnlvnl attraction billed for Ontario failed In tho Ynklmn valley rannot bo charged ngalnst tho Fair board. Thoy did their best to se ruro ono, nnd had doflnlto, mmuriinco ofa tho appearance of ovory act billed, but tho pervorslty of man cannot bo foro seen, always, nnd no (Jama should attach to tho management of the Fair for tho absence of tho carnival this week. O.V'TIII- UIOIIT TIMCIC Tho visit of tho delegation from Kugono lioddod by I.ouls Dean, tho noxt spoakor of tho Oregon Houso of Itepresntatlvos on Monday, wo hopo Is but tlib first of many such visits. Whou tho folks over lu tho Wlllam etto Valley start lo got noqualntod with Kastorn Oregon thcra Is hopo for tho futuro dovolopmont of this region If stato wldo co-opcratlvo ef fort can accomplish It. And Wo bo llnvo that no other method will do It. It Is romarkablo to Kastorn Ore gnnlans that tho people of tho Wit itmcitto Valley should bo Interested In getting railroad work started lu this section of tho statu. It Is hard to bollovo, but It Is n fact. And what Is moro to tho point tho men who aro taking this Intercut In tho dovolopmont of thla section aro men who really count lu their homo lialllwlckB. Thoy aro tho men who do things. Lot them get going and with tho- energy that Knstorn Oregon con produce when tho lltno comes to net woll thero Is no limit to what can bo dono. And now lstho time to act. Wc havo for tho first tlmo tho spirit of co-operation rising In tho Wllamctto Valley. Tho Kttgcno mun and their associates over thoro want tho Natron cut-off built. Thoy wont It to con nect with an cast and west railroad running from Ontario to Crane, nnd a north and south railroad from Tho Dalles to Klamath. Aro thoy dream ing? No! Not at all. ' Oregon Is entitled to that much consideration from tho railroads. They havo been glvon substantial rUes In rntcs. Tho theory has been established that railroad Investments nro entitled to carulngB on tho funds actually Invested . Then why not proceed now to request, first per haps; but If that docs not suffice, de mand, of tho railroads that they pro ceed to complete tho b)-hIoiii they hnvo started In tho Interior of Ore gon? Thnl Is what tho Eugene men pro poso to do. They do not want, nor should they ha asked to do this atono. They want tho co-oporatlon of East ern Oregon. And they want It from Ontario, from Vale, from Crane, from llursn, from Klamath, Ilend, a ml uvory Interested community In East ern Oregon. They will get that co-operutlou. Thoy havo tho co-oporatlon of tho up- por Willamette- Valloy, anil thru tho 8tato Chamber of Commorro ran be socurcd tho co-operation of the en tire state That Is tho big thin. Put tho whole state behind this move input and It will go or sotim one will havo to reveal why It doe not. To got down to problem lirc at home. It Is up to Ontario to got be hind the Slala Chamber of Commerce plan, to do Its share, so that It can with Eugene. Ilend and their towns ta. say to tho directors of dial who luivo met their Chitmber quo body: "hero Is our problum, It Is mi Oregon problem, and wo want you to assist lu solving It." Until Ontario has dono that It In not In position to meet visitors such as tho Eugene men, and wiy we will help In this movement whleli will benefit us moro, porhups than It will help ou. Ontario's drlvo for tho Chamber .of Commerce fund lyis been tlolujed. Tho visitors did not como for the purpose of boosting It, but tholr ob ject sorves to cull attention to the need for that organization ns nodilng olso has done. If good roads extend tho, trade radius of n town from threo lo BO or 7G miles as Senator Chamberlain snld, to tho peoplo of Dead Ox Flat, Is It not straugo that moro business men do not tnko n real Interest In gottiug good roads built? Ontario Is Justly proud of tho fact thnt It was nn Ontario boy, Olenn Hoso whoso pig was tho big prize winner. IIUHY IIKKM IIAVK I-'OUK TANKS Ilcos carry four things Into tho hlvo, says II. A.
