THIS BICKERINU?
If two or three small weeklies
of the state should keep up such
a constant, disgusting ard use
less bickering as dets the Ore
gonian. Journal and Telegram
over their circulation, news, ad
vertising patronage, etc., they
would be called all the opprobri
ous names within the vocabulary
of the city editor. Of what ben
efit is this contemptible tirade of
abuse to the readers of the pa
pers mentioned? Who cares if
the Oregonian comes out in a
coat of many colors? or if the
Journal is a follower of Hearst ?
or that the Telegram has a few
inches more advertising patron
age than the Journal? One
would imagine that they are
a set of braggadocio school kids,
or old men in their dotage.
Time is too precious to spend
in such a manner, space too val
uable to be wasted in such a way.
Beside this it smatters of abso
lute insanity to be for years quar
reling over matters of so small
moment to the majority of read
ers. It certainly would show-
more sense to put in more time
on helpfnl editorials, —such as
all three know how to write.
There is room for all, and some
to spare.
Better then come
down to common sense and leave
these petty prejudices and jeal
ousies to those who know no bet
ter.
POOR BOYS WHO HAVE BECOME
FAMOUS.
Thinking over the names of
men w ho have become famous in
history we find that the majority
were of lowly origin. Commenc
ing with Abraham about 2CC0
years before Christ follows the
names of Joseph. Moses, David,
Samuel and a host of old and new
testament characters.
Christ
too was of lowly origin yet his
name has become the most fa
mous in all history. Then too
we have the names of Banyan,
the village tinker, Stephenson,
Franklin, Chase, Lincoln, and
others too numerous to mention
who have risen from the lowest
to the highest. But you must
ever keep in mind that these
men, as boys, believed in ‘‘doing
things” not ‘‘dream them all day
long.” and so must the boys of
today “do things” if they would
achieve success. Success is the
price of persistent effort and
comes not without it.
LETS TALK
IT OVER.
Isn’t it about time for the cit
izens of Gresham to be doing
something toward securing a
city water system? Someone
has said that the town would
have to be bonded, that taxes
would increase, that the present
way was good enough. Yes, the
town will have to be bonded,
probably for $10,(MX) to $15,000,
that is no reason why the city
should be taxed to pay it. Tne
system can be made self-support
ing and pay off the principal too.
Why delay this work? We
can have no sewers until a water
system is installed, consequently
improvement is retarded.
Property values kept down,
disastrous results from disease is
being constantly invited, and
Subscription.
at <«re.*hani. Oregon.
people who would like to locate
here are forced to go to a more
up-to-date town because of a
lack of modern conveniences.
This step should not and cannot
consistently be defferred any
longer. Hence we hope that
our town council will give this
matter the careful consideration
it merits.
Again there comes the cry of
more cars. In the fight between
the Harriman and Hill interests
the consumer has been lost
sight of. Eastern Oregon and
Washington are suffering from a
fuel famine without hopes of im
mediate relief. Southern Ore
gon can ship no lumber because
of failure to secure cars yet it is
said hundreds of empty cars are
being held by both companies in
an effort to force the other to
their terms. As usual, the pub
lic is the scapegoat and are made
to suffer at the hands of the cor
porations who. because of free
land grants and other forms of
intolerable graft, have become
multimillionaires.
How long
will it be until the people will
demand government ownership
of all public utilities? At the
above rate it will not be long.
In proclaiming Thursday, No
vember 29. 1906. as a national
holiday and time of thanksgiv
ing President Roosevelt evident
ly realizes that, as a nation, we
have mnch to be thankful for.
As an individual, what have you
to be thankful for? This prob
lem should be, and is, of great
importance to every one of us,
for we are not dependent upon
self alone. We are forced to de
pend upon many others for ne
cessities as well as luxuries. So
many of us are prone to think
that the world owes ue a living,
and what we receive take it as
our due rather than with thanks.
Gratitude is a needed factor in
the makeup of every human be
ing. Cultivate it. and use it. for
by so doing you will make the
world happier and better for
your having been a part of it.
A mother can do her girl no
greater wrong than that of neg
lect in domestic training. It is
a shame and a disgrace to Amer
ican motherhood to see how- little
interest is taken in the training
of our girls in the care of the
home. Not one girl in ten, at
the age of sixteen, knows how
to prepare a decent meal. Not
one in five even know how to
take care of the home as it
should be. Too much time is
given to social and other duties.
It is no wonder that dyspepsia
and its attendant ills have be
come a national disease and will
become more so unless the mat
ter is remedied.
A little of the old time train-
iug of the girl, on the part of
the mother, is badly needed, and
we hope our folk will see to it
that it is forthcoming at once.
