to be left in comparative poverty and
many of them forced in time to seek
aid of the "county because a milling
company has gobbled up and wants to

rights are plainly secondary to' the

Are the Indians to be jobbed out of

XOT ENOUGH.
It isn't enough to work all day
Where all is bright.
Content to have merely earned
your pay.
When you quit at night.
It isn't enough to move along
Where cares are few
Content if no other bears a
wrong
Because of you.
It isn't enough to merely drift
Where winds blow fair;
While the weak still wait for
the strong to lift
Them from despair.

THEY CAN" IF THEY WILL.
"Where there's a will there's a
way," is a saying that is applicable to
the subject of irrigating the Umatilla
reservation as well as to other afairs.
If the right authorities but wanted
to do so they could proceed at once
with plans for watering the Indian
lands adjacent to this city. Under
an act already in force the secretary
of the interior has power to make
rules and regulations for the use of
water upon reservations. II. even
has power to revoke the permit un
der which the Byers mill has mon
opolized the river.
It is true it might not be wise for
the government to go far with re
clamation work upon the reservation
until the rights of the Indians to the
use of water are fully established in
the courts. But the department by
a little activity could greatly hasten
the adjudication of those rights if it
chose to do so.
At the present time no sincere ef
fcrt is being made' to establish the
Indian rights. The proceeding that
lias been brought before the state, wa
ter board amounts to nothing more
than a "staU." It will take many
years to determine the Indian rights
If that route Is follow i. Further
more it is an unfavorable court In
which to start the case. The state
board deals with state laws, not with
treaty rights. It Is but natural to
expect that when the case is decided
by the board the state laws will loom
big while the Indian treaty will ap
pear but aa a myth.
The reservation case should be
tried out before the federal courts as
the Montana cases were tried. It Is
a federal Question that is involved
and only the United States courts can
nettle it. It Is a waste of valuable
time to fight the proposition In the
state courts and everybody knows It
What is going to happen? Are the
If Col. George Harvey and his Wall
street magazine, Harper's Weekly,
have been supporting Governor Wil
son for the pres'dency it is well- in
deed for Wilson that such support has
left him. The same might also be
said of the support given by Henry
Watterson. .
Governor Wilson is running as a
progressive and the. support of the
bourbon element can do him no good.
It is quite natural he did not want
Cbl. Harvey's support. A few sup
porters such as Harper's Weekly
would be enough to "cook the goose"
of most any progressive candidate.
Among reactionary republican
newspapers theTe is a tendency to
magnify the aid that Col. Harvey has
given the New Jersey man. He is
credited by such papers with having
been the maker of the Wilson boom.
But such an idea is absurd. It is
doubtful if one man in 10,000 in Ore
gon even knew Harper's Weekly was
supporting Wilson or that Henry
Watterson was supporting him. They
did not know and they did not care
what those men were doing.
Governor Wilson is his own best
political asset. He is a remarkably
able public man. He is a very clear
thinker and a wonderfully effective
speaker. He is a champion, of im
proved popular government and he
sets forth his views so convincingly
that all may see the truth thereof.
Here is a good extract from a typical
Woodrow Wilson address:
"The" main object of what we are
attempting, both in state and nation,
i3 to establish a close connection, a
very sensitive connection, between the
people and their governments, both
in the states and in the nation, in or
der that we may restore in such wise
as will satisfy us again the liberty
and the opportunity In whose inter
epts our governments were conceived."
"We look beneath the label to the
man and his thought. Whichever
party proves most fit to cenceive ani
put through a wise, progressive pro
gram will become the liberal party
of the nation. ' Tories will be welcome
to resort to the other and enjoy the
privilege of minority."
A man who talks like that has
qualities of statesmanship and he Is
of such calibre that no scrlbler like
Col. Harvey can do much for him
or much against him. v.
The general effect of the attacks
new being made upon Governor Wil
son should be beneficial to his candi
dacy. They show very conclusively
that Wall street Is against him.
