INVEST AT HOME.
' Once more the East Oregonian Is
going to say a word regarding the ten
dency on the par: of local people to
niake investments elsewhere. Within
fhe past few weks a number of Uma
tilla county men have purchased land
i i Canada. They had a right to do
so, and this paper hopes that thoy will
tiake money.
But why not try something nearer
home. There are good opportunities
for investment in Umatilla county and
In other portions of Oregon. If peo
ple only knew it, the fields near home
are as green if not greener than those
afar.
People who want cheap wheat land
do not have to go to Canada to find
it. Wheat land may be purchased for
$13 per acre in this county. Such
land may be had in the northwestern
part of the county. And there is
every reason to expect that it will ad
vance in value. When the land under
the ta.-t Umatilla and the other pro
jects of the west end become fully
i (.claimed the value of the land In
the northwestern part of the county
will be enhanced. Within five years
the price of land In the "light land"
section of this county will be doubled
o. trebled. See if it is not.
! Then there are opportunities in the
irrigated section that should be in-
vestlgated. Some day, and it will not
lie many yars distant, land under
the government project will be selling
lor 11000 per acre or more. Similar
lind In Washington now sells for that
amount. ,
When the arid land of the west end
is colonized and orchards are bearing
where the sagebrush now grows, there
i" going to be a veritable garden of
Eden right next door to Pendleton,
ilany men have already become
wealthy through investments In that
section. Others are going to meet
with equally good fortune.
Canadian Investments now seem at
tractive because there land may be
f cured at a few dollars per acre.
But what is the difference whether a
Prson makes ilO.f'OO upon a 40-acre j
tract or through owning a section?
This article Is not written to knock
Alberta or any other portion of the
esrth. It Is written to remind people
that there are opportunities for in
vestment at home. For money mak
irg, Umatilla county and eastern Ore
gon offer golden opportunities galore,
Investigate them fully before going
a' road.
SEEKING THE LEVEL.
Westward the course of empire
takes Its wav.' wrote Berkeley. He '
n ight have added that it does so
gradually and through succeeding
waves of migration. In Oregon the
pioneer wave came many years ago
Those now coming westward are peo
pie who wleh land for intensified
farming. Oregon has plenty of room
for them.
"Oregon has seven or eight people
to the square mile," says the Oregon
Journal. "Rhode Uland has more
I nun 400. It la an unbalanced distri
bution . It is a condition that time
and events will correct. The seven or
eight to the square mile In Oregon
will pass to 20, then SO, and so on up
to the gamut of population.
"Oregon Is capable of sustaining an
enormous population. The water
powers In Its mountains are the
agencies for an unlimited Industrial
activity. Time will show that In the
ssme mountains there are hidden
Measures that will be the means for
other great activities. The forests on
these mountains are another resource
for further unlimited employment of
men In the creation of wealth. But
greater than all these are the agricul
tural areas, utilized as yet only In a
fractional part of their capacity."
As sure as water seeks its level,
Oregon and the entire Pacific coast
will some day be closely Settled. Other
parts of the world are crowded while
the west offers boundless Inducements
for settlors. They will come as sure
ly as the rivers run seaward and the
s:ind In the hour glass flows down
ward. A MOVE FOR CLEANLINESS.
That the city administration has
acted wisely In passing nn ordinance
licensing near beer resorts seems ap
parent. Through this ordinance, so 't
i claimed, the city will secure a firm
hold on the situation and will be en
abled to enforce its prohibition ordi
nance. That there has been need of some
vigorous regulation on tne part or
someone is evident to an wno nave
been watching local conditions. At
the present time there are some Joints
here that are plainly not intended so
much for the sale of near beer as for
the sale of Indian whiskey. They
should be ruled out.
Prohibition is now the law of this
county and city. The law was pass
ed by an overwhelming vote of the
people. This being the case there Is
tut one thing for the authorities to
do enforce the law as closely as pos.
sible.
Dives have never been anything but
an injury' to this city. They wop!
such even In the d iys when the liquor
business was a legitimate l!n and
srloons paid licenses. Now they ar?
even more of a menace and a nui
sance because the sale of liquor Is
legally under the ban.
Let it be hoped that the licensing
or these places will work for the
cleanliness of the city. It Is the be
lief of the mayor and councilmen that
the ordinance will result In benefit.
The idea is at least worth trying.
RECREATION" FOR WOMEN".
That women do not play enough
and suffer because of the fact is a
sentiment with which many will
agree. This Is believed by those who
recently attended a meeting of the
Illinois Federation of Women's clubs.
What the club ladles are going to do
about the matter Is not made known.
The art of living is still far from
being fully developed. Modern life
consists largely of work and of recre
ation that Is neither really enjoyable
nor healthful.
According to social philosophers
this Is especially true of the fair sex,
It is pointed out that men engaged In
sports such as baseball, tennis or foot
hall, and likewise hunt find fish
while women spend most of their lels.
ure hours with fancyworrt or at tea
parties.
But there Is now a new school
where the belief prevails that women
as well as men should pay attention
to physical development. Devotees o
this school advocate gymnasium train
ing for women and also such pastimes
as tennis, horseback riding, etc. They
claim that the real pleasures of life
are to be found In doing those things
which, while furnishing recreation,
likewise build up the body and there
fore tend towards happiness. Are
they not right?
As president of the Woolgrowers'
association, J. X. Burgess Is said to
fvor a republican for United States
senator. But if Mr. Burgess had taken
an oath to vote for a certain man
for senator, would he go Snck upon
his pledge? Would he advise a friend
of his to do such a thing? It Is no.t
likely.
Let us see, wag It not Governor
Chamberlain who Issued that celebrat
ed proclamation which ha'd for Its
object the reservation of Oregon
ranges for Oregon sheep? In that In
stance the governor was not . the
sheepman's foe. He might not be in
congress. .
The Oregon Bar association, for
technical reasons as usual, refused to
pass a resolution endorsing the San
Fianclnco graft prosecutions and the
work of Heney. Very well, Heney
will recover and Ruef will wear
stripes Just the same.
Home day the old cemetery across
the river will be cleaned up and a
grassy park will replace the jrc-ont
unsightly place. When the Improve
raent Is mndo a monument should be
erected In honor of the sturdy pio
neers who now lie buried there.
President Roosevelt Is said to have
asked some labor leaders whom he
had to dinner what, legislation they
desired. He should have, read the
democratic platform.
HIGHEST 1HMNT EVER
REACHED IJY IIAI.I.OOX
At the last meeting of the scientific
commission of the Aero club of
France, M. Descuzis presented a re
port of an ascension made on July
.1, 190S, in which the great altitude
of 17,500 feet was attained. At the
highest point the temperature was
53 4 degrees farenheit, and the hy
grometer indicated a relative humid
ity of 27 per cent. Dr. Orouzon gave
an account of the physiological ob
servations made by him and Dr. Sou-
bles In the course of the trip. One
of the passengers was attacked by
"balloon sickness" at an elevation of
13,300 feet, but was readily relieved
by the administration of pure oxy
gen furnished by the Ougllelminettl
apparatus. Xo regular effect of al
titude upon arterial pressure was ob
served, but a marked progressive di
minution of muscular strength with
Increasing altitude was recorded.
Cutaneous senslb.lity, measured with
the Weber compass, diminished
slightly and a similar effect upon the
acutcness of hearing was detected
with the Bonnier diapason. These ex
periments will be repeated and ex
tended in other ascensions to great al
titudes which will soon be made by
the commission.
CALL OF THE WEST.
The wanderers of earth turned to her
outcast of the older lands .
With a promise and hope in their
pleading, and she reached them
pitying hands;
And she cried to the Old-World cities
that drowse by the Eastern main:
"Send me your weary house-worn
broods and I'll send you Men again!
Lo, here in my wind-swept reaches,
by my marshalled peaks of snow.
Is room for a larger reaping than
your o'er-tilled" fields can grow.
Seed of the Main-Seed springing to
stature and strength In my sun,
Free with a limitless freedom no
battles of men have won."
For men. like the grain of the corn
fields, grow small in the huddled
crowd,
And wiak for the breath of spaces
where a soul may speak aloud:
For hills, like stairways to heaven,
shaming the level track,
And sick with clang of pavements
and the marts of the trafficking I
pack.
Greatness is born of greatness, and
breadth of a breadth profound;
Tile old Antaean fable of strength
renewed from the ground
Was a human truth for the ages;
since the .our of V. y vbirth.
That man amoncr men was strongest
who stood with his feet on the
earth.

Consul P. Merrill Griffith writes
that two carloads of pecans, the first
of the Mexican crop, were shipped
from the port of Tampico to St. Louis,
via New Orleans, during the first
week of October. They were from
the vicinity of Montemorelos, Ta
maullpas, and are said to be of an
excellent quality, the price at Tam
pico being about $2.40 per bushel
gold. At the same time were sent
500 crates of Mexican hats, and sev
eral carloads of ixtle f.ber.
