In response to the address of wel come yesterday J. H. Morrow, of Wal la Walla, said some very timely and sensible things. He complained of bonanza farming and of its deterring effect upon the development of east ern Washington and eastern Oregon. Bonanza farming is the "sleeping sick ness" that has taken the life out of maiiy otherwise good sections of the Inland empire. Big farms have work ed to the injury of this city. But Pendleton is not dependent upon the wheatraising country alone so it has bten saved from the fate of some less fortunate towns. Mr. Morrow asked that Pendleton and Walla Walla people co-operate in working out a remedy for the blight of big farms. It Is a fitting line for such co-operation. The task is a big one. To the average man the problem seems impossible of solution. Vet it need not be impossible. The breaking up of the bis stock ranges was also considered an impossibility, yet they have been broken up. The reclama. tion of the arid plains of the west was for years but a dream. But it is a dream that has come true and the realization of that dream has worked wonderously towards the settlement and development of the west. It is the firm belief of the East Ore gonian that the big farm problem can also be solved and will be solved in due time. Some progress is now be ing made along this line. The ad option of closer farming methods and the raising of leguminous crops as well as wheat tend toward the break ing up of the great ranches. When by experimentation a system of farm ing has been worked out that means n annual crop instead of a biennial crop the big farms will be broken Up as by magic. Land wili become so valuable the ownerswill find it good business to sell it out in comparative ly small tracts to people who will live upon the land anj actually farm it. Right at this time much might be done towards the colonization of the wheat district of this county if the right steps were taken. With an or ganization such as that now at work upon the colonization of the Umatilla project marvels could be accomplish ed towards peopling the rolling plains of this county. There are millions of people in this world who desire land and homes of their own so that they may support themselves and loved ones and hold up their heads among men as God intended they should. Such people would be glad to locate in this land of sunshine and progress. They would not complain if they had to work hard and could not afford automobiles at first. The big farm problem can be solv ed and it will be solved the quicker Is, as Mr. Morrow suggests, the people of Walla Walla and Pendleton co ot erate in this cause. THEY AKE WINNING OUT. It Is Interesting and gratifying to note the successful development and settlement of the west end of this county. When a few years ago work was undertaken on the reclamation -of the Umatilla project ana upon such private projects as the Furnlsh-Coe the task seemed like a big one. There were many who predicted failure and scoffed at those who became inter ested in the west end country. This was but natural for the scoffer Is al ways at hand. No matter what the proposition nor where there will al ways be some who will scoff and sneer. There" are people who will re vile when Gabriel blows his golden trumpet and the pearly gates' of heaven are thrown ajar. The fault though will be with the scorners not with Gabriel's music nor with the heavenly gates. But with respect to the west end country there is now little room for scoffing. Such showings are being made upon the government project, upon the Furnlsh-Coe project and other private projects that there can be no reasonable doubt but that the work will prove entirely successful and the west end of Umatilla county become one of the most productive regions in the west. Already those who invested In the west end country a few years ago have made money. Some have doubled their money, others have trebled or quadrupled it. Many who went into that sectirm as poor men are now in line to become independently rich. And the good work has only com menced. The west end country is making good, v THE CITY OP DESTINY. The city of Walla Walla Is a thriv ing place and it has made especial progress during the past few years. This growth has been due largely to the construction of the lnterurban line to Milton and to the settlement of small farming tracts in the close vicinity of Walla Walla. The East Oregonian hopes that Walla Walla will continue to grow and prosper and it believes it will do so. Yet without meaning for a mo ment to be disparaging towards the Garden City the East Oregonian pre dicts that in the course . of time Pen dleton will outstrip the metropolis of southeastern Washington. This be cause at the pjesent time Pendleton has a much larger and a more un developed territory than has Walla Walla. In a sense Walla Walla is now eating her ake while Pendleton is just opening her basket of resources. When the west end of Umatilla coun ty becomes fully settled, when the southern part of the county is open ed up to civilization, when the bo nanza farms of this county become divided, when the Umatilla reserva tion has passed Into white ownership, when the timber from the south end of this county is. brought here for manufacture and when by menns of electric lines and more steam lines and more motor cars Pendleton be-co-mes properly connected with Its tributary territory this place is go ing to become a real city. This Is as sure as fate. Walla Walla is the Garden City; but Pendleton is the City of Destiny. THE SERVICE IS JUSTIFIED. That the motor car service between Umatilla and Pendleton was actually needed has been fully demonstrated by the patronage the car has been given. The car is being liberally pat ronized on every trip and It is of ben efit to every section of the territory between Pendleton and Umatilla. It seems Inevitable that the patronage will increase as people become ac customed to the service and as the settlement of the west end country Incomes more dense. There is no reason why there should be bitter enmity between Walla Walla and Pendleton. The two places are commercial rivals, yet they should be as brothers In working for the de velopment of the inland empire. Stanfield has been incorporated and so is officially christened. But be fore that formality occured Stanfield made some husky strides in the way of growth. Pendleton's fine train service and motor car service in addition makes this place the big shopping center of Umatilla county. If you don't belong to the Commer cial association hurry and Join it. Don't wait to be asked. They did not see many empty bus iness locations. OUT OF SIGHT OF LAND. "Yes." said a traveling man last night. "I was once out of sight of land on the Atlantic ocean 21 days." There was a small-sized crowd sit ting around. Another manpoke up, says the Denver Post. "On the Pacific ocean one time I didn't see land for 21 days," he said. A little bald-headed man knocked thj ashes from his cigar. "I started across the Kaw river at Tokepa In a skiff once," he said, "and was out of sight of land before I reached the other side." "Aw, come off!" said the man who had told the first tale. "The Kaw river Isn't more than 300 feet wide at Topeka." "I didn't say it was," said the little bald-headed man quietly. "The skiff turned over and I sank twice." 1 fJtoftV . from IT MADE A HIT. " There Is a story on a St. Louis man going the rounds, which might as well be blamed on one man as anoth er any one running for office will do, says the St. Paul Dispatch. The story Is that this man went to a meeting largely composed of Nor wegians, many of whom could not understand English, while he didn't know a word of Norwegian. Anxious to please, he said to the chairman: "Now please give me a good, rip ping line in Norwegian with which. T can close my speech something that will create enthusiasm.' The chairman complied, writing a line out carefully, rehearsing the speaker in pronunciation and show ing him where the oratorical period should come. The speaker went through his usual talk, and then, com ing to the sentence furnished by the chairman, roared out: "Vil dere alle sammen vaere so snille at aaned og have lidet forfrls gnlng paa nin bekostnilng 1 salonen ne deunder!" There was a yell of delight, a vocif erous round of applause, a shriek of Joy and then a stampede of five hun dred eager men for the door. "Gee! It made a hit!" exclaimed the speaker. "What does it mean in English?" "Why," said the cnairman. "You asked them all to go down stairs and have a drink at your expense-" AS QUIETLY AS POSSIBLE. Addison Miwner. the well-known New Ytfk first nighter, told, at a studio supper, a good story about a prominent business man. "A chandelier fel: In the night at his house," explained Mr. Mizener, "and in the morning at breakfast he said to his wife with a laugh. " 'What did you think, my love, when you heard the chandelier fall In the dead silence of the night?" " 'I thought, darling." his wife an swered, 'that you had been detained on business again and were getting upstairs as quietly as you could.' " NOT THE SEALSKIN. Simeon Ford, apropos of wifely sympathy said at a recent dinner in new York: "How hard it is when the wife- is unsympathetic! "Poor Jones trudged home through zero weather the other night, and, blowing on his frozen hands, said solemnly: " 'Well, I've got the sack.' " 'Oh, you dear!' his wife cried. 'The sealskin or the other one.' " " 'The other one," " said Jones, laughing bitterly." Physically Not Mentally. Dick You were born to be a writ er Charlie.
