Fairbanks Is perceptibly "thawing out." On his trip across the conti nent to the Irrigation congress at Boise, the vice president was anything but the icy recluse which he is said by the cartoonists to be. Mr. Fairbanks and party arrived at Eolse yesterday morning over the Union Pacific and Oregon Short Line Yrom Denver, and at several places along the way, especially at Pocatello, Idaho, large crowds greeted the vica president, who shook hands with the men. chatted . with the women and kissed the babies in the usual canv puign planner. The general impression of Mr. Fair banks will be changed by a personal acquaintance with him. On the over land tiain Mr. Fairbanks made him elf extremely sociable and compan lonable. He occupied an apartment In a drawing room car, but at every station he left his car and mingled with the people In a most . cordial manner. Af one sees more of the vice pres ident, the stronger grows the convlc tion that his Icy temperature has been greatly exaggerated. Ho seems to be in earnest in his Interest in the west and Is out to sc and learn. If he is assuming his cor dial mood on this trip, he is a superb Mo- the irrigator from the sagebrush are mingling In a delightful carnival of speechmaklng and banqueting. It is the greatest irrigation congress ever held anywhere In the world. The I'nited States Is the home and originator of the Irrigation congress. and the Hols congress is ahead of iheni all; This is the 14th and great est meeting h 'ld by the National Ir. rlcation association. To the persist ent efforts of Idaho, and the cordial co-operation of her friends, chief o( which is the state of Oregon, Is this great achievement due. Until one visits the leading irrigated sections of the United States Colo rado, Utrh. Wyoming, Idaho where la;id values have reached the fabu lo'is stage, through Irrigation, It Is, Impossible to properly estimate th Importance of this great national In dustrial movement. The cast cannot appreciate th'j value of irrigation, because it has few If any, practical demonstrations. The majority of eastern people are totally Ignorant of the vastness and national romlnence of Irrigation. They feel that the reclamation act and the rec lamatlon service are little local affairs hlch concern only a limited portion of the west But the splendid interest shown the Boise congress proves that even the east Is awakening. Fifty corres pondents of leading eastern newspa pers and magazines arrived at Boise yesterday to attend the congress and to send the story to their papers in the east. This means more for irrigation than Is realized at a glance. This la really the first organized effort of the east em press to learn something of Irri gation and Its far-reaching meaning. The East Oregonlun Is glad that Idaho has made the Irrigation con gress a success. The Gem state owes much to Irrigation. That she appre elates Irrigation is shown by her splendid greeting to the Irrigators. PEN Dl. ETON'S OFFERING. In last Saturday's East Oregonlan v:is pub:ished an outline of the com ins year's v, ork in the public school of this city. This o-jtline comprehends the most complete public school course ever put foith In eastern Oregon. It means that Pendleton keeps her place at the head ol the list of school town In easte.-n Oregon. Nowhere else In eastern Oregon or Washington, or In fact. In any other western state, has the public school work been organlz ed and systematized as It has been in this city. The highest possible efficiency, within the limits of the courses taught and with the facilities at hand, haB been reached here. The public school organization and program In this city are equal to those of many cities with a population of 20,000 to 30,000. It would be Impossible to find a more thorough organization In a city of th lze of Pendleton, and the East Ore gonlan is glad that Pendleton makes this offering to the public. This excellent public school sys tern. In addition to the high class pri vate schools of the city makes Pen dleton the school center of eastern Oregon. In BRYAN AND ROOSEVELT. The republican press of the country auds Theodore Roosevelt to the skie for spending $200,000,000 of the peo ple's money in building the Panama canal, for the development of com merce and for the protection of the industrial Interests of the nation. The same press condemns Bryan a an anarchist and an unsafe dreame for proposing government ownership of the railroads, for the development of commerce and the protection the Industrial interests of the natlo If It is wise for the government to build, equip, maintain and operate the Panama canal in the Interests of national commerce, and to free the people from the shipping trusts, why is it not Just ns wise for the govern ment to oejn, maintain and operat the railroads In the Interests of na tional commerce and to free the peo ple from the railroad trusts? If Roosevelt should advocate gov ernment ownership, which Is but a short step in advance of his railroad regulation program, the parrot press which now condemns Bryan, would shout Itself hoarse for Roosevelt. Con sistency Is. Indeed, a rare jewel in pol itics. mm W il . .V m M- .M 4 I ' te mm. n-mi waya W P J ; ft 1&.

With the approach of the theater season, Pendleton asks herself: "Where Is that new theater building so long needed and so often promis ed'" The truth of the matter Is that Pen dleton Is denied the best class of at tractions because of her small and poorly equipped theater building. She! is entitled to the best, and would have the best If she could accommodate them. Her railroad facilities bring her Into direct touch with the largest and best companies that come to the Pacific coast, but she enjoys but few of them. The largest and best cannot show here. She gets only the best of such as she can accommodate. THE IRRIGATION CONGRESS. This week at the beautiful and busy capital of Idaho, speculative and op erative Irrigation have met and Joined hands.

Teasdale, who Is suffer ing from a cancerous affection of the throat, which physicians havo pro nounced Incurable, has been taken to the shrine of St. Anne de Beaupre, near Quebec, Canada, In the hope that a miracle through contact with relics of the renowned saint kept there may bring him relief. Thousands of the afflicted who have gazed upon the knuckle bone of the j saint enshrined In the cathedral of St, Anne and have kissed the case In From March 1 to June 30, 1006, au thorized to organize with a minimum capital of $35,000, 18 national banks have been opened In Oregon, each capitalized at $25,000.

AN EDITOR'S TOAST. At an editorial convention one of the country editors offered the fol lowing toast: "To save an editor from starvation take his newspaper and pay him for It promptly. To save him from bank ruptcy advertise in his paper liberal ly. To save him from despair send him every Item of news of which you can get hold. To save him from pro fanity write your correspondence plainly on one side of the sheet and sent It In as early as possible, To save him from mistakes bury him. Dead people are the only ones that never make mistakes. Newspaper readers would do well to remember that there are no perfect people, editors or readers."
