There is a harvest, indeed, that has waited for too long. A moat villainous herbage covers acres of suburban real estate, ami even encroaches on the downtown di.v trici.

Box 47 Pendleton, Oregon. Some Special Bargains in Morrow County Lands. All Kinds of Property. Agent PACIFIC AGENCY The German-American National Conference finds that Wilson has pursued a "perfidious foreign xli cy." We fancy that the ex-kaiser endorses this view, but will it ap peal to the unhyphenated American? The resolution passed by the confer ence read as follow, and the more publicity given it the less, we think, will it help the republican ticket: "In view of certain enlightened statements in Senator Harding's speech of acceptance and in his sub sequent utterances expressing his unalterable opposition to the League of Nations and the perfidious for eign policy of the present adminis tration, we shall, unless unexpected events transpire, regartl it as our duty to support the republican candidate." Two separators tlwtl over a few lays ago in the Touchet hills. Somu places up there remind olio of the late Hill Nye's North Carolina farm, whore ,he could look up the chimney mid sec the cows come home. i Common-law Texas oil companies are found to bo swimlltng thousands of Oregon people who have plenty of money for worthless stocks but are quite likely the howlingest howlers over the high cost of living. Germany is said to brand her goods for England "Made in America," and her goods fr America "Made In England." Herein are methods of traffic poscssing a peculiar appeal to the Teutonic mind. It would simplify matters for the average voter to learn out of their own mouths whctlu-r Cox is wet or dry and Harding a dry or wet. "Pussyfooting" should be left to the tomcats. "If we were fanine, instead of getting advice of those German gen erals we'd consult some of the win ners," says James J. Montague. We gather that the esteemed Ore gonian condemns us as blindly parti san because we are not as one with William Jennings Bryan in sulking in his tent. But is the Great Only itself entirely free from partisanship in saying that it would oppose Cox, wet or dry, because he is a demo crat? Once a strong league of na tions advocate, isn't It supporting a republican candidate who is frank ly against the league? Our own view is that this powerful big jour nalistic pot ought to feel a bit like a bully in jumping on a poor little truly rural newspaper kettle and calling it black. "Wheat Goes Higher Today" is just about the best news the daily papers can convey these times to the agricultural communities. Do Your Chickens Lay?

Sold in Weston by Weston Mercantile Company We are still wondering what sort of a gift it was Chief Tall Pine handed Irvin S. Cobb at Pendleton, with the suggestion that if he came to the Round Up he would get plenty more of the same. Cobb winked, we are told, and remarked: "I get you, bo." Yet it wasn't the sort of a sam ple that one would be led to suppose from these mysterious happenings. It is no case for a prohibition officer. We think we know Chief Tall Pine, and if there were aught of bottled cheer in that little box the noted humorist would have gone his way with thirst unquenched from Round Up town. The remarkable growth of the mo tion picture industry is indicated by these statistics assembled by New York Tribune: Fifteen thousand reg ular theatres arc showing motion pic tures. Twelve thousand legitimate theatres are showing motion pic tures. Twenty-five hundred of them change two or three times each week. Daily attendance at picture theatres is fifteen million. Total income of motion picture theatres in 1019 was three-quarters of a billion dollars. In this country there are 830 differ ent chains of motion picture theatres. Dr. J. Whitcomb Brougher said what is is slangily known as an ear ful in a Portland sermon Sunday last in the following sentence: "Nothing has brought more misery into homes, caused so much trouble in churches and hindered the progress of God's kingdom in the world as the failure on the part of people to control their, tempers and have a kind, sweet, help ful disposition." If the onion of nations that Hard ing says he wants were now in ex istence and a democratic president had been identified with its organiza tion, Harding would be against it and for a league of nations article ten and all. . The New Jersey senator having re turned from Europe to take part in the slush fund investigation, the re publicans seem to have an Edge on the democrats. Whether the "slush fund" of the re publican managers was intended to be three or fifteen millions, they'll only be wasting it anyway. , In iImj Omnty Court ' tli Stale of oreffon for t'ninlllln Count,.
