WHILE SETTLERS WAIT.
While the editorial columns of
other metropolitan papers remain
strangely silent regarding the Mc-Mahon-Columbla
Southern suit the
most Important matter of state nows
In the Oregon Journal of Juno
13th we find the following:
"There Is prospect that the Mc
Mahon ease against the Columbia
Southern Irrigation project may be
argued before Judge Galloway at
Salem June IS.
"The legal moves In this suit
should follow each other with all
IKieslblo celerity. There was In fact
no crying need, for the suit to have
been brought. Now that It Is on the
docket, the Issues should be prevent
ed to the supreme court for a final
determination attlio earliest possible
moment.
"The legislature felt that It was
worth while for the state to render
aid In financing the Columbia South
ern project. Like many others, as n
private project It dismally failed.
Many of the settlers who depended
upon getting water on their lauds
through its ditches, were victimized.
"The project with Its rich lands
and contiguous water flows pre
sented possibilities for converting a
large area of unproductive land Into
producing territory. It was In such
an emergency that the legislature
voted to back the project on terms
under which the state's outlay would
be returned In full at the end of
ten years.
"The action of the legislature was
distinctly constructive. It was ex-
perlmental for a state to finance,
such a project, but It Is by experi
ment that all progress has come
The many failures at irrigation
through other plans suggested that
the state might evolve a program o.l
icclaliuing desert lands that would
be successful.
"Suah was the program when, tho
McMahon suit to have the Columbia
Southern measure declared uncon
tttltutlonal was brought forward It
has put a stop to the operations that
were already well under way, an-1
through which waiting settlers on
the project hoped to be given ulti
mate justice and a means of liveli
hood for their families.
"The aircuuiHtancea are such tint
the i?urts and all concerned should
afford every faolllty for getting an
wirly decision of the case. It Is tho
last place In the world In which de
lays and postponements should bo
introduced or tolerated,"

possible reason for so doing?
They might. Hut probably they
won't. Instead, they'll go on their
way sadly, cusalug tho tariff.
AFTER THE TRIAL IS OVER.
Colonel Roosevelt makes It plain
thru tho 111k Stick Is not used In his
beverages. Pittsburg Dispatch.
Jacob Rlls Is the record character
witness he even 'denies what tho
Colonel admits Wnll Streot Journal,
Colonel ltooeelt8 refusal to tnko
a drop too much could bo emulated
to advantage by our lending avi
ators. Columbia State.
Sitting next to Colonel Roosevelt
at h Iwnnuot must have been pretty
soft for a man who wan fond of
cocktails. Detroit Free Press.
Wo suppose the W. C. T. V. will

in other words, the Colonel would
have us bellevo that u man Isn't
necessarily drunk every time he acts
thnt way. Washington Hernld.
In vluw of Mr, Roosmelt's testi
mony at Marquette, rt Is not too early
to state thnt lmth Wisconsin nnd
Kentucky are already hopelessly lout
to tho Progressives. Chicago Inter
Ocean.
Ex-President Roosevelt's testimony
makes It clear that tho White House
cow during his administration had no
cinch. Huston Globe.
It Is pretty hard to judge a man
by the company Jio keeps when hu

at the same time. Columbus Ohio
State Journal.
The testimony at Marquette Is a
great relief to Dr. Lyman Abbott. It
will be remembered thnt tho Colonol
once remarked that he drank nbouC
es much as the Doctor. Huffalo
Enquirer.
The following extract from tho
New York Times tells a story of
sensible cdueatton which, If It wero
only possible, might bo emulated lo
cally most profitably:
"Felix Metzger Rosenstock cannot.
swim the length of the Columbia
University swimming pool and there
fore he will not be among those who
will receive degrees from tho univer
sity nt the commencement exercises
to-morrow. It Is n rule that no
student who has not devoted enough
time out of the four years ho Is at
Columbia to learn to bwIiii, ns re
quired by the gymnasium course, can
receive his dogree, although he may
have earned it ten times over by
scholarly attainment. '
Talk about circulation! Tho
other day The ltulletln was given for
publication n contest notice addressed
to " deceased." The do-
parted was a good man, ami we
haven't the allghtest doubt that the
paper wilt bo dellvured to him on (ho
Heavenly R. F. I), route. However,
had bl mornlH made bin destination
questionable, we are cqtmlty uuro
that he'd never see his notlrei be

THE TARIFF nOGEY.
Oregon wool growers are howling
about the tariff, lwcauue they are told
that It Is solely responsible for the
low wool price this year. Who tells
them that? The buyers do. Wouldn't
you. If you were a buyer?
"It's (he best wo can do for you;
the tariff Is killing tho business;
foreign wool will como In and knock
the stulllug out of our American
prices" that's about what the buy
crs say. Of course. Rut suppose
the Isolated, unorganized growers
happened to find out that wool In
Australia and other forolgu markets
gotSj right at home, several cent u
pound more than the prevailing
American prices, do you suppose they
might wall up to the fact that por
liAW they are lining gloriously bilked
b the lpiMirhoQdud buyers? Do you
aupposo they might realize that per
Jjans the in.uch.igallgned tariff, and
the T)oniiorntc administration, Isn't
entlroly to hlamol Dp yon suppose
they might have spunk enough to ask
thobo pessimistic buyers now it hap
pens that foreign grpwors could af
ford J,t U,r commercial phllan
TUropfsfH and send all their "wool to
thts country, to sell It hero for lower
prices thau they would receive at J
