CHAMPOEG "NOT NATIONAL"? IT will roueo the Iro of a (treat niany loyal Ore gonlana to learn that the national parks and monuments commission at Washington has de cided that historically Clinmpocg Is not of sufficient national significance to warrant federal coopera tion In the development of the memorial there. The rsouest for 125,u00 to Improve and beautify the grove on the hnnks of the Willamette will he re jected. The authorities any Champoeg Is "of local Interest only." If It Is to he made a monument, It must be done with Oregon money. Nevertheless. It will require more than this re pulse to defeat the Champoeg tradition In Oregon. There Is nothing so tenacious as an heroic legend, reople want to believe. It may he merely legend that Joe Meek called loudly for the division at Champoeg and that tha 52-50 vote to establish provisional government saved the Oregon country for the United States. Even Oregon historians are cautious in relating the facts of May 22, 1S43. It may be true that Oreat Britain had really relinquished all serious claims to tlio territory south of the Columbia river as early as 1S4 and that only the fate of the country north of the river was In dispute In 1813. It may be true thai the Champoeg meeting was mainly for tho purpose of setting up some government to legalize claims to land, marriages, births, Inheritance and to estab lish roads and other services necessary to the settlers. It may be true that tho constitutional gathering of July 5, 1SI3 was more important, actually. Dut Champoeg was dramatic, and we all love the dramatic. Professor R. C. Clark, at the Uni versity of Oregon, a leading authority on the his tory of the west, points to a broader significance In Champoeg which perhaps both the officials at Washington and the enthusiasts at home have over looked. The establishment of the provisional gov mmont may not have been the single act which saved tha Oregon country for the United States but It certainly stimulated the great migrations which completed the Job. With the assurance of a government In Oregon even though the provisional setup was strictly neutral the great white fleets of covered wagons began to move across the plains to the new empire In the West It Is Important that the waiting Amer icans east of the Missouri In that day believed that it last Oregon had been saved for the United Itates. Into the fertile lands north as well as south t the Columbia, they poured, and the British fin ally withdrew before that tide of American belief. Nature bas made Champoeg a very beautiful spot. What needs to bo done there can be done hy Oregon people at relatively small expense. Thous ands of pilgrims annually will make the pleasant drive across the rolling hills between Aurora and Newbers; to stand at Champoeg for a moment. Historians will debate the available facts and their significance, but in tradition will not be rooted eui.

He claims Rontttvllle na bulH ei Make good a Franklin D. Roosarelt prom I m, mad In the beat of the 1932 campaign, on Impulse and not on acber study of facts. Mr. Marshall claims th Northwest already has more cheap power than can ba used economically for Industry or agriculture. He sees little Immediate prospect for vast chemical or metalurglcal Industries because he sees no ready markets for those products. He sees only years of . waste and loss until the great Northwest grows 1 up. He sees tho death of the ,10.000,000 salmon fishing Industry as the only probable Immediate result. There Is Just enough of truth In Mr. Marshall's ! article to have at least one good effect It may silence the silly squabbling over who's to get Bon neville power and Induce a little sensible study of some of tha problems Bonneville will produce. Figuratively speaking, Mr. Marshall has performed the public service of turning tb fire hose on a bunch of drunks. Everything Mr. Marshall bas said can be verified in volumes of engineering reports : except certain errors and omissions. i Mr. Marshall claims "hardly anyone In the Northwest says today there Is a real need for i Bonneville." This Is not so. You have only to read j the warring statements of the Portland Chamber ' of Commerce, the State Grange, or the dally news papers to realize that Bonneville has become a matter of religious faith. Even such representatives of "private power" as C. M. Brewer, of Mountain Ktntes; Franklin T. Griffith, of Pepco; Paul B. McKee. nf Pacific Power and Light and L. T. Mer- win, of Northwestern, as quoted as recently as this week's Voter (C. C. Chapman) In expressions of Bonneville faith and hope. Our own J. W. McArthur j and other representatives of municipal power have ' served with government engineers In surveying and planning Bonnevllle'a use. The problems of developing USES for Bonne ville have NOT been overlooked. Only trouble Is that in spite of much talk and much reporting, too little has been DONE about It. It Is true as Mr. Marshall alleges that phoney Industrialists from the Eaat have played Northwest newspapers for sucker publicity with handsome talk of projects they never Intond to start. What Mr. Marshall overlooks mainly Is the spirit of th Northwest He sees only 4,000.000 people In a wilderness of mountains and deserts. He questions the folk lore of mineral weslth under those mountains, desert which will blossom and "a second Belgium" in the valley of the Willam ette.

GRAY IN THEM THAR BEARDS he no doubt but that difficulties and differences -such as confront the dif ferent crafts and business of todny could be adjusted satisfactorily to all concerned. Hut on the other band where we have dictatorship or high pressure forces with a spirit -'will force you to it" and an objective VOW that a blj midsummer picnic Is being or- ganlied at the summit of the Cascades to tequalnt people with the Important Wlllametle route, there comes a suggestion that a similar oc casion ba organised to acquaint people with what has been done and needs to be done to complete Route F the short road from Eugene to tidewater and the playgrounds of the Coast. It Is an excellent Idea and there can be no doubt the people of Mapleton, Florence and other Western Lane points will cooperate. Too few people realize how nenr nnd yet how fsr off Is Ihls Route F project. Befnro depression set In Lane county under the guidance of Judge Barnard had developed an excellent road through Notl and across the almost Imperceptible Wildcat pass through Walton to Richardson on tho Sluslaw. Ther wotk stopped for a number of reasons. Money ran out. Tho state took over secondary roads. An engineering problem arose. Should tNo road continue on down the Sluslaw to Bwi.Mhoxo .ir should U cut up Turner creek and down Kroi'ies creo'n lo Mapleton a Mr saving In mr.op.grt rr.u a hugo Increase In cost. County En gineer Percy Morse mndn preliminary surveys nm recommended a tunnel through the ridgo to hold tile advantages nf "nter grarto" which otherwise woui.i be l,-?t. This called for n million at least. Then came the hectic efforts to Induce the state highway commission to add ltoule K tn the major stale- blghnav program nnd to attract federal aid. The state has started the Improvement on the Wast Eleventh street road from Eugene to Veneta as part of the ultimate program, but II has not been able tn render help nn the all-Important Rich ardson Mapleton gap. The problem of l.nne county has been In got a preliminary rend built on this section, in hne tins seetlen replace tlio liiehard snn SwiFilinme Fei-'.ion us part of the secondary hlthwny route, and It has been neee-sary to use WPA and C('C crov, for tn. work.

There's sliver threads among the gold, red, brown or black of many a whisker that held Its pristine colors three years ago. Perhaps that explains the hold-out of the Lions and the so called Supreme Court. Nine Old Men! Yea, ninety! And just as vain as peacocks! Hut why hold back on account of that? The pioneer wns usually a graybeard, according to fond report. He Is always pictured as a venerable. His wisdom was supposed to be proportioned to his whisker length. Oregon owes lt5 start to the fact that so many had 'cm clear down to the waist. Note the protest hecnuse that New Y'ork feller who Is sculping for the new Btatehouse pictured his pioneer as a mere youth. True, the graybeard In starting gives one some what the appearance of a benevolent muskrat. Rut let m out! Let 'em attain their majesty and strength!
