SAME OLD SAGEBRUSIL
Standing on the bank of the gov
ernment irrigation canal yesterday
near Echo, admiring the great volume
of water flowing toward the reser
voir which Is to reclaim 22.000 acres
of sagebrush land in western Umatilla
county, an old pioneer declared that
he could scarcely believe it Is the
same old Lmatuia county, me same
old sage brush, the same old hills.
Here through the waste land which
has been the haunt of the rabbit for
centuries, the current of the river is
now flowing, like a Ufegivlng spirit,
awakening the verdure, starting the
pink of the peach bloom, spreading
the green of the alfalfa through the
domain of the sage.
ITtah has seen "the same transfor
mation. Idaho has been stripped of
her ancient habilaments. Wyoming Is
a new state. Nevada is breathing
again with renewed life. Colorado is
a vigorous queen under irrigation.
California is a dream of bloom and
beauty and Oregon will become a
model of the new world development
when her rivers and deserts are
united In irrigation.
It is almost unbelievable until you
stand on the bank of the canals and
dee the water flowing through- the
sagebrush wastes. Green grass Is
growing where nothing green has ever
been seen before. Shrubbery Is start
ing up vigorously where never a' tree
lilted up Its arms in gladness before.
Flowers are blooming and crops are
thriving where no verdure ever look
ed up to the god of nature before,
and it Is all on that same old desert,
among that same old sagebrush, on
those same old barren hills.
It is the marvel of wate'r, the-ser-!
mon of the flowing river, the dream
of the ditch maker, the realization of
.'he poet's fancies, the fruition of the
"hope of the irrigation "crank" who
ha ben laughed at in every age, but
who is yet the greatest civilizer known
to mankind.
at great profit to the farmer and
greater benefit to the land.
This, Dr. Withyeombo declares, Is
one of the unpardonable sins of east
ern Oregon farming methods. While
the land Is being Impoverished by
continuous wheat growing, the farm
er Is taxing himself, in addition to hit)
other economic burdens, by paying
freight on hogs for 1800 miles while
he might grow these hogs on his own
land and sell them to Portland and
Puget sound packers at enormous
profits.
Thus the farmer loses in two ways:
He pays a useless freight charge on
his bacon and he loses a profit which
he might reap from hog raising at
home.
These things may sound like the
ories, but they are gospel truth and
will come to be recognized by Uma
tilla county farmers perhaps when it
is too late.
Mil. CAKE'S FAIRNESS.
H. M. Cake, republican candidate
for United States senator, has set a
new pace in political campaigning In
Oregon.
In his political addresses Mr. Cake
absolutely refrains from attacking his
opponent, Governor Chamberlain, al
though the governor devotes much of
his time to assaults upon Mr. Cake
and his alleged failure to stand by his
ante-primary principles.
"The office of United States senator
is too exalted a trust to be lowered
to the level of personalities, "says Mr.
Cake and so he shows his respect for
the office by conducting his campaign
on a high, manly and dignified plane.
Mr. Cake believes that principles
are at stake, that Oregon should send
a man to the senate who will be in
sympathy with the administration and
with the advancing republican senti
ment of the century and so personali
ties are no part of his campaigning.
This is really a new era, a new
Ideal in politics In Oregon. Who can
remember a political campaign in Or
egon when candidates did not roast
each other, when personalities, no
matter how bitter, did not play a con
spicuous part In the fight.
Mr. Cake Is making - friends and
votes by his high class campaign. He
is confining his addresses to bona fide
arguments, td discussions of public
questions and has studiously avoided
attacks upon Governor Chamberlain.
This Is one of the best arguments In
favor of Mr. Cake. He has proved
that he Is a man of high Ideals, broad
principles, broad guage dignified and
highly sensible "xf the dignity of the
office to which he aspires. He Is
senatorial timber. His conduct
proves it. His principles prove It.
His Ideals prove It and he Is convinc
ing voters of the fact by his maner
of 'campaign.
IT ISN'T ROOSEVELT'S IDEA.
-WASTEFUL OREGON.
One oi the most forcible arraign
ments of the wasteful methods of Or
egon farmers ever made In this county
was made by Dr. James Withycorabe
during his lectures from the O. R. &
N. demonstration train itv the county
this week.
Dr. Withycombe called attention to
the absolute waste which Is tolerated
every year by Oregon, In allowing land
tc be cropped with wheat continuous
ly, while millions of dollars worth of
fat hogs are shipped 1800 miles from
Omaha and other Nebraska points
Into this state to supply bacon and
lard for Oregon farmers.
Several million dollars worth of
hogs are shipped Into this state each
year, by farmers paying the freight
from .Nebraska, in addition to the
wholesaler and Jobbers' commissions,
while these same hog might be fat
tened on the farms of eastern Oregon
Because few of the people of the
country understand the method em
ployed In the various big stock and
grain exchanges of the country, dema
gogues can easily distort President
Roosevelt's condemnation of "bucket
shops" into an arraignment of all
legitimately conducted exchanges, a
condemnation of all. trading In the
form of future contracts, without
which the merchants and manufac
turers, and even the agricultural In
terests, would be virtually paralyzed
But part of what the president did
say was;
"The great bulk of the business
transacted on the exchanges is not
only legitimate', but is necessary to
the working of our modern Industrial
system, and extreme care would have
to be taken not to interfere with 'this
business. In doing away with the
bucket shop type of operations."
The president, knowing the differ
ence between real transactions, back'
ed by the products of the country,
merely attacked the bucket slfop
method of wagering upon the turn of
the quotations made on the big ex
changes where actual business Is
transacted.
tible to a much higher state of cul
tlvatlon than Is now found In the
county, and within a few years the
prophecies of the experts will have
been largely realized.
The average size of farms In the
Hood River district Is 16 3-10 acres
and the average income Is $S0O per
ucre per annum. A stretch of coun
try 30 miles In length and from five
tc 10 miles In width along the west
elope of the Blue mountains In Uma
tilla county Is susceptible to the same
high state of cultivation and enormous
Income.
Umatilla county Is no longer a Rip
Van Winkle. The rusty, old gun of
ancient prejudices Is falling to pieces
in his hand, the tattered coat of moss
backlsm has fallen away piece meal
and a new man Is facing the future,
clear-eyed and hopeful. This Is a new
day.

scriptions for the publicity fund?

LAND IX11 THE JEWS.
A peculiar will case was recently
settled in an English court. A. J.
Kenward, deceased, bequeathed a leg
acy of between $10,000 and $15,000 to
ttje Zionist congress with the provision
that the land be geographically divid
ed among the tribes as of old, or some
such arrangement, Imposlble and Im
practicable today.
The relatives of the deceased con
tested the will, and the claim of the
Jewish Colonial trust, the financial
agent of the Zionist congress. As the
latter could not comply with the let

PRAISE FOR FARMERS.
The agricultural experts who are
accompanying the O. R. & N. farming
demonstration train through eastern
Oregon this week, have had the high
est praise for the farmers of Umatilla
county, the intelligent, progressive
farmers who have attended the meet
ings and asked questions on the sub
jects discussed.
. The experts feel that their lectures
have not been wasted. The high
class farmers of this and adjoining
counties, the Intelligent understanding
of advanced farming methods evidenc
ed by them and their practical Ideas
all give the experts encouragement
and It is believed that the seed of new
Ideas sown In the county by these
lecturers wlfi ripen Into practical re
sults within a few years.
foe few bonanza farmers are not
now interested but the rank and file
of the farming communities are In

covery in time and persevere In its use
until you give It a fair trial and It Is not
likely to disappoint. Too much must not
be expected of It. It will not oerform
miracles. It will not cure consumption
In Its advanced stage. No medicine will.
It will cure the affections that lead ud to

Representative Cushman of Wash
ington, came to Speaker Cannon with
a letter written by the speaker himself.
"Mr. Speaker." he said, "I got this
letter from you yesterday, and I could
not read It. After I studied it quite
a spell I showed it to 20 or 30 of the
fellows in the house, and between us
we spelled out all the words except
those last three. We can't make them
out. I want to know If you won't
translate those last three words?"
Uncle Joe took the L-tter und stud
led It.
"Those last three words that stuck
you and everybody else," he said "are
