It will be phenomlnal indeed if
wool prices do not soar next spring
and our woolgrowers are Justified in
looking out for their Interests.

New York to Liverpool Is three cents

Portland. The water
rate on wheat from Portland to Liv
erpool ia approximately the same aa
the rail rate from here to Portland
These facts illustrate the cheapness
of water transportation when it comes
to hauling such products. We have
had other illustrations closer at
home. When the 'canal at Cascade
Locks was completed the rail rate on
grain from The Dalles to Portland
m us cut 40 per cent because of the new
competition that was set up. Reduc
tions in the grain rate and in the rates
on ether commodities were brought
about w hen the portage road at Celilo
was built
Under such circumstances the farm-
era of the Holdman country are show
ing sound judgment in planning for a
road of some sort over which they
can get their wheat to the Columbia.
Such a road will mean great benefit
to them; it will mean benefit to all
who can secure connections with
such a road. Pendleton too needs
that road, because it would insure
this place an Independent connection

In a report from Baker It Is stated
that Secretary Gale of the Oregon
Wbolgrowers Association
The Wool strongly advises all grow
Sltuatlon. era to refuse to sell or con
tract their next spring
wool unless they are given 25 cents
a pound or more.
In other words if wool prices are
to go skyward the sheepmen wish to
get a portion of the benefits; they do
not want to let some commission men
step In, contract for wool at ordinary
prices and then sell at fabulous
terms later on. The fact buyers wish
to contract for wool thla early shows
they hold the opinion wool prices are
to go higher; the sheepmen can afford
to entertain the same notion.
Condition at present certainly point
to high prices fur wool. The Eng
lli-h embargo on Australian wool will
force a great wool shortage in thla
country. Another feature of the situ
ation is the fact European govern
ments have been contracting heavily
in thla country for woolen blankets.

intervened? To save the Belgian
nationality, brutally violated by a
Power that had sworn to safeguard
Belgian neutrality; to assure, by the
maintenance of an Integral, and even
ggrandized France, the equilibrium
of Europe, a balance of power syn-
nymous with the freedom of peoples;
and, above all perhaps, because of its
belated perception of the clear variety
which her idealism and her self-engrossment
had so long prevented her
from seeing; namely, that when Ger
mans spoke of "claiming their place
In the sun" they really dreamed of
looming so largely there as verily to
eclipse that luminary and to fling the
Planet behind them Into their shad

This is an anomaly which it
will be the destiny of the early twen
tieth century to abolish. Wherever
there be a natlonaj soul, it must be
allowed to breathe at ease. Nation
allty is the self-conscious struggle of
a people to maintain Its integrity
when it is exposed to the gravltative
attraction of a powerful neighbor. The
present war is a war of nationalities.
It is a war of nationalities even for
the Germans.

A newspaperman was trying to
sell a merchant some advertising.
"If the boss wanted to adver

assistant.
"But he may not know the ad

persisted the solicitor.
"Oh the boss always knows,"
said his assistant.
Sixmonths later the newspaper
man passed that way. The sher

door.
''Yes," murmured the newspaper
man to himself 'The boss al

NEW YORK, Nov. 24 Outdoor
boxing is planned for New York
fiKht fans, would give the ring game
the biggest boost it haa received In
years. Both fighters and fans would
benefit by boxing In the open.
An open air boxing club could seat
many more spectators than could oe
accommodated in the largest enclosed
arena. New York promoters said to
day that because of this they will cut
down on the price. of all tickets ex
cepting those for ringside seats.
The boxers would benefit most
through fighting In the open air,
where he could fill his lungs with the
maximum amount of oxygen. It
would mean that he wouldn't be com
pelled to fight In the smoke-choked,
fetid atmosphere of an enclosed ring,
which any medico will tell you would
frequently prevent knockouts. The
theory on this point Is that a blow
which would mean a knockout In the
ordinary closely packed building
might be recovered from before the
fatal ten count if the knocker and the
knockee were out in the fresh air.
This outdoor fight scheme la not a
new one. It has been tried and test
