JUNE 4 More Than "One Model County." Bunion is a model county acwJing to tha Oregon D.iily Jo irnal. which had the following tribute to that Willamette shire recently: "Benton county is out of debt Aside from some violations of the local option law, now suppressed, ii is a cou: ty practically without crime. There is but little litigation thei'e. A term of circuit court sometimes lasts but a day or two. "The people, however, are not asleep, but are industrial v active and are becoming more and more enterprising. There is richer farm ing land to le had .it a moderate price, much unimproved land, timber land and many streams. The climate is almost perfection and there is no booze in Penton; it is a dry county. "Where is there a better residence county, a better one for American homes, in the country? If there is a better one it must be some other other Oregon county and we doubl if any of these is more than just as good." There is one "just as good," if not better, in the extreme north eastern corner of Oregon. Wallowa is not only ideal as a residence county, but it is something else it is a good place for business. How often it is spoken of some old, non-progressive place that it is not much for business but H a fine ulaee to live, rent and eilncntn a fumilv Wallowa county combines both advantages in a superlative degree. There are few places in the Inland Empire that equals this for opportunities, both for the invester and homeseeker, and there are cer tuinlv none in the old, settled counties west of the Cascades, Here in Wallowa are mar y exceptional openings for the man of large capital, hundreds for the man of small capital, and thousands for the man win so capital is brain or brawn, or both, backed by thrift and industry Wallowa county has lacked only one thing to be THE model county, and before the leaves fall that lack will he supplied, for the Wallowa county extension of the 0 R. & N. Ry. will have been com pleted clear through lo Joseph, bringing the Coast market to the heart of this delectable land. Time To Get Together. The people of Wallowa county have said emphatically they wish the county seat question settled at once and forever. It simply rests with the county court to put that verdict into the concrete form of a county building and the question will stay settled. That cause of strife removed there is nothing to stand in the way of nil the townB and dis tricts co operating together in the up building of the county, unless some town places resentment above the common inteiest of all The railroad will be completed through to Joseph within four months say the company's odicials. That means trains running into Wallowa by October 1st, or a full month before the expiration of colo nist rales. This is our opportunity to secure hundreds of homebuild ers and small investors. It can be done without too heavy expense on any one community if nil will work together. The time is full ripe. It has been suggested that some commercial club or the county court in an unollicial capacity issue a call for a meeting of representa tiver. from all clubs, towns or districts, for the purpose of advising to gether and a reeing upon a united plan of action for advertising the county. We hope such a call will be issued. Now is the lime to organize for county development. What helps ue ht lps all. Railroad's Coming. The railroad's coming, no foolishness thin tints, hut surely con iug. (leneral Manage O'Brien himself says it will be completed clear through to Jivseph this summer. Isn'i he the fine man? Hundreds of men General Superintendent Buckley says a thousand- -will be at work by the middle of June. Bless Buckley's good ild Celtic heart, and more power to him. O'P.i ieu and Buckley, There's the real, railroad building combi nation. The Irish always have been and still are the greatest of rail road builders, though they hire Japs and Dagoes nowadays to do the heavy lifting. If Ilarriman had only left it to the Irish months ago, Wallowa county would be shipping carloads of products from her rich oil today. But tho railroad's coming now sure. Glory be! The cold, wet weather ha? !eeii general all over the wtstern and central states. In central Illinois corn planting is over two weeks behind The season is a month late in central California. Wallowa oiinly is as ever the favored spot. While there has been more rain i ml cold weather this spring Mian usual, far met s have their crops in mil everything is growing finely. Fruit is not harmed to any extent mil will be an abundant yield. We have reason for congratulation that we'are exempt from California sandstorms and from the tornn loes that devastate the centrl slates. Wallowa county is the garden "pot and the ideal climate of the great Northwest. All the Portland pnpers gave groat prominence to the orders for esumption of work on the Wallowa county railroad, and speak of this is th garden spot of immense natural resources, agricultural, timber nd mining, and possessing unequalled scenic beauty. All of which is literally true. Wallowa county has made grx d her claims of being a prohibition ounty by again going dry by a large majority.

Edmund Clarence Ptodman's own poem, ''The Undiscovered Country," was sung at his funeral. This is the pojm: Could we but know The land that ends our dark, uncertain travel, Where lie those happier rills ai.d meadows low Ah, if beyond the spirit's inmost cavi', Auglit of that country could we sure ly know, Who would uot go? Mig'ht we but hear i Tho hovering angels' high imagined chorus, Or catch, betimes, with wakeful eies and clear, One radient vista cf the realm befcre us Ah, w ho would fear? Were we quite sure To find the peerless friend who left t;s lonely, Or, there by some celestial stream as pure, To gaze in eyes that here were love) it only, This weary, mortal coil, were we quite Biire, Who would endure? Makes Portland Proud. . The Oregon Ian In giving a list of big things of recent occurrence that make for the vital progress of that city, In cludes the extension of the Wallowa brunch of the O.
