In the lengthy editorial discuss
ing the cane of Senator Mitchell
and Senator lVoew, the Kooky
Mountain News, owne! and edited
by Senator Patterson, says that
"guilt should not he condoned.
It is repulsive in all it variant
forniH, and he who tries to dis
tincuish. that he mav condemn or
palliate, renders a
questionable benefit,
not but conclude that
service 0 f
Yet I can
if the aver-
age citizen of the day, cogniiant
of the careers and the conduct of
both, were compelled to choose
between the senator from New
York and the senator from Ore
gon, as an object either of sympa
thy or of approval, bard though
the task might be he would not
stand with Mr. Depew upon the
senate floor, but place his arm
around the drooping shoulders of
Mitchell and walk beside him with
slow and silent stride out into the
marble vestibule beyond."
The disappearance of S a ni
Branton from a ranch on the
Deschutes river nearly a month
ago, which has baflled every effort
on the part ot his neighbors to
locate him. is another of those
mysteries for which Crook county
has been noted ever since its
origin. Branton ha gone never
to return, for it is not probable
that a man nearly X0 years of age
would be so completely swallowad
up without some outside assist
ance. If he committed suicide in
the Deschutes, the roaring tumbl
ing waters of that powerful stream
will probably hold their secret for
some time longer, but if he went
by another method the place and
its surroundings are such that
only by the merest chance will
"his bodv be recovered.
Professor Nichols, the famous
Cornell physicist, during recitation
of a freshman class in natural
philosophy observed a tall, lanky
youth in a real seat, his head in
a languid pose, his eyes half closed
and his legs extended far out in
an adjacent aisle. He was either
asleep or about to lose conscious
ness. "Mr. Frazer," said the great
scientist, "you may recite."
The freshman opened his eyes
slowly. ' He did not change his
somnolent pose.
"Mr. Frazer what is work?"
"Everything is work," was the
drawling reply.
"What! Everything is work?"
"Yes sir."
"ThenI take it you would like
me and the class to believe that
this desk is work?"
"Yes sir" replied the youth
wearily, "that desk is wood work."
No man from his mere position
could be more literally at the head
of the Republican party than
Senator Fulton. Out of four
representatives in congress he is
the only one, as matters stand,
who isn't fiat. In the appoint
ment of a federal judge or some
such office one thinks that under
the circumstances his recommend
ation would be final. But it is
neither final nor official. He may
give a list of eligibles and he may
take a stand against the appoint
ment of a particular man and
make it stick, but that is all. The
man he really desires may not be
appointed and there are others
consulted about appointments who
follow a clearer trail to the White
House than is blazed for him.
Why should the recommendation
of some federal fly-by-night who
spends a few days in Oregon be
accepted in preference to the en
dorsement of Oregon's sole active
representative? It is unfair and
it reflects upon both the dignity
and character of the representative.
Senator Fulton should not stand
it. He either is or he isn't. If he
isn't, well and good. But if he is
he should in his own behoof raise
a roar that will be heard clear to
Washington. Journal.

MEETING OF GREAT
BENEFIT TO THE WEST
The National Irrigation Con
gress, which will lx held in Port
land August '21 to 24, and to which
Mayor Wuriweiler of this city is a
delegate-from Crook county, will
be the most far reaching and im
portant to the western state of
any meeting which has locn in
this country.
The government 1
irrigation fund has now reached
an amount which warrants the
initiation of large irrigation pro -
jects in the various states con -
tributingtothefund, and a mun -
. . . , . .
u-r ot these schemes are norr being
launched m the states ot the
Pacific northwest

executive jptinimtte?, will arrive

gress. He will le assisted, by A.

Lowell, acting president of the
Oregon State Irrigation associa
tion, and others who are interested

merce and 'abor, and other of
ficials. The states of Utah, Colorado,

SllPTER ROAD
HURRIES ITS WORK
There is a good deal of talk
about railroad building in East
ern Oregon but the Sumpter val
ley is pushing its road right along
without any talk and the exten
tion of that line from Tipton the
present terminus, which is 54
miles from Baker City and 25
miles beyond Sumpter, which was
for many years the terminus until
the present extension plans were
begun is being made rapidly and
will certainly reach Austin Station,
ten miles beyond Tipton, this
fall, and may be extended further,
although that is now doubtful,
owing to the sqaracty of water.
Superintendent Joseph Barton,
says the Democrat, will leave for
the front Thursday and while
there will locate the new townsite
and arrange many other import
ant details of construction and
improvement of the line as out
lined and agreed upon by the
company during" the present visit
of Prosident David Eccles. Mr.
Barton will arrange for the erect
ion of regular section bouses for
the use of the section men instead
of the old cars they have been
using in the past. The entire
line will also be ballasted with
gravel as fast as possible, the work
to begin this season. ' In fact the
Sumpter Valley railroad is to be
made an up-to-date road in every
respect and when the improve
ments contemplated are completed
it will compare with any of the
trans-continential licea.
