Another year is passing and the
banner wheat and livestock county
of Eastern Oregon looks forward to
a street carnival, instead of an ele
vating county fair.
While it is humiliating to acknowl
edge that a woman witness was

the minister arrested for burglary st

Patti took just as much money out

If the state irrigation commission
can find any head or tail to Oregon
irrigation laws, it will do better than
lawyers or courts have ever done.
There is some tall searching ahead
of the commission if it expects to
find a starting point inside the cov
ers of the code.

It has ceen the policy of the gov-;
ernment to deny federal buildings to |
cities not able to furnish
two or j
more government institutions. Pen
dleton can't dig up anything but the
postoffice just now. She hasn't even
got a weather bureau man with his
elaborate equipment of rain guage

Wanted, by Russia, an excuse >o

suggest an honorable way to let Rus

a terrible decline from a literary
standpoint, compared to that note
calling The Hague conference.
Whoever is interested in doing
away with political conventions and
in giving the common man a voice
in the nomination of the candidates
for whom he must vote, should see
that the direct primary nominating
amendment carries in Oregon this
year. It is a step a century in ad
vance of delegate conventions, pack
ed to the brim, nine times out of ten.
While a week's repertoir is being
played at one of Pendleton's thea
ters, it would be perfectly proper to
practise a fire drill as the audience
passes out. Everybody should know
about such things. Because this is a
small city and has always been for
tunate, does not excuse ignorance
and carelessness. The city officials
should assist the management of the
theaters in carrying out rules for
public safety.
Senator Bailey, of Texas, is incon

Roosevelt's administration and he is
running it to suit any popular fancy
which will work votes for himself in
the nominating convention. There is
more in diplomacy than there is in
opening both eyes to the interest of
the whole people, at times.
With the Influence of the great
Hearst papers fighting the trusts in
every corner of the United States;
with a Hearst boom sounding in the
ears of the largest list of readers
reached by a single newspaper syn
dicate in the world; with the honesty
of his purpose and the popularity of
his platform making friends daily by
the thousands, it seems that Wil
liam Randolph Hearst is going to l-e
a hard man to beat in convention.
And once nominated, his Immense
engines of publicity and the influ
ence they carry in the highest cir
cles of business, politics and person
al friendship, will make even the
popularity of Theodore Roosevelt
hard to catch in the coming cam
paign.
Young, vigorous,
enterpris
Ing, a leader of matchless skill, as
evidenced by the success of his great
papers, achieving stroke after stroke
of triumph under his direction, there
is no more logical man for the demo
crats to nominate than Hearst. It
will require a Hearst to offset the
indefatigable energy and irresistible
popularity of a Roosevelt.

To those who see the idle land and

short step from the wilderness to the
alfalfa field.
But the tedious and
wearisome progress of the govern
ment would lead to the belief that

Cattle Outlook Favorable.
William Fleetwood, the Hereford
sheep and cattleman, who Is at the
Antlers, says that the cattle outlook
for the coming season is much bet
ter than it was two months ago.
and from
present indications ne
thinks there will be a great demand
for stock of all kinds. "It is poMible
that the prevailing prices will not
equal those that have been paid
growers during other years." ne
says, "but the general status of af
fairs is very encouraging to growers,
who would rather have a steady
market at fair prices than a finnlcky
demand at high figures.
Further
more, 1 believe that stockmen this
year will be able to find a market
this year for all kinds of cattle,
while heretofore »or a number of
years it has been difficult to sell
anything but prime beef in the very
pink of condition."
Those who have handled cattle
during the past seasons are already
in receipt of inquiries from eastern
buyers regarding the cattie outlook,
which is intrepreted by some to in
dicate a greater demand and bettor
