TO GOVERNOR WEST.
Governor West will find little op
position to and little support for tho
plan to hnvo tho government take ov
er tho North canal unit so far as tho
eettlcre thereon arc concerned, bo-
cause there Are practically none on
tho project at present. The work
should bo done, however, nnd If con
tractual obligations aro to be observ
ed, it should be dono by tho ata
whose sub-contractor has failed to
carry nut Its promises. If the state
avoids its obligations. It will bo mere
ly another Inttanco of tho fact that
contracts made by or with tho state
through the Desert Land Hoard need
not bo performed but may be amend
ed, altered and changed at will.
Tho settlers who have been Invited
to Saturday night's meeting hero
are not interested in the com
pletion of the North canal unit. Some
wont the canal finished so that they
can havo water delivered, but they
care nothing for the unit as a whole.
What they do want Is a completion
of the projects, already begun where
water rights 'have Wen sold but no
water delivered. They want enough
water to insuie growth of their crops.
They want enough water so they urn
get patents to their lands, borrow
money and make needed Improve
ments; so they can sell, If need be,
and give good title and not have their
minds filled with tho thought that, In
a few years perhaps, the land may
revert to the United States and be
opened to homestead entry by any
one. IJeforo anything new Is start
ed they want what has been begun
finished.
The answer, that the irrigation
company will now give them what
they want with the money from the
North canal sale, does not satisfy.
What assurance Is there that this will
he dono? Who knows where the mon
ey will go? Time and again the
company has contracted with the
state to do things, to do things by a
certain day, and they are still un
done; settlers are still clamorinc for
water and for patents. When are
they going to get them?
The record to date of the state's
dealing with the C. O. I. Co. shows
that the atate cannot act In a super
visory capacity; its record on the
Tumaio, . project, on the contrary,
shows that where It has full charge
It succeeds. Let It take full charge
here. It it to provide the money.
Let it have the spending. Or if the
funds are to come from Uncle Sam,
let him watch how they are spent.
To Governor West we say this:
Take over the .North canal if you can,
carry out the company's program; but
whatever you do. see to it that set
tles now here are taken care of;
that water Is brought to them, and
the work done that will give them
their patents.
Theodora Roosevelt, In lilt autobio
graphical sketches In tho Outlook,
Mr. Roosovelt writes of innny things,
groat and small that "I" did while
president, but wlum ho sots down tltnt
thnl ho or any 0110 else prevented Tho
Hague peace cort from becoming an
' amply farco" It bocomos dllllcult to
swallow tho egotistic pill. Tho ordi
nary man, who Is uotthor statesman
nor diplomat, feels that after all Tho
Hague Tribunal Is a farce. Porlup
not. Wo hope not. Rut tho evi
dence of continued wars among tho
clvilted iintluus nnd the continued
unwillingness really to trust tho trib
unal with settlement of tho disputes,
not to mention the orgnnUod Insanity
of tho international annuitant race,
all mnkes one wonder If, after all,
Roosevelt, or any one else has pre
vonted or can prevent, Tho llnguo
Court from becoming an empty farce

DROWNING STILL LEADS.
Tho following table gtves the loss
of life resulting from disaster of var
ious kinds In this country during
1913, as roported by tologrnph and
the local columns of tho dally press:
Drownings 7.128
Fires 1,015
Mine ,229
Cyclones nnd other storms . . . G2S
Explosions DG1
Electricity 2C1
Lightning , ISO
Asphyxiation 225
Elevators S5
Automobiles 1,694
Which shows that despite tho ovor
Increasing competition of tho auto
and aeroplane, drowning itlll holds
tho gruesome mortality records by a
big margin.
Why doesn't William Randolph
Hearst go to war with Mexico him
self? Arthur Hrlsbnne could be chief
of stnrr, and all tho employees on tho
Hearst papers might enlist. That
would save tho taxpayers the liurdmi.i
of tho Hearst-llnerta coulllct, the
children and the women their bo-renvoments.
THE OUTLOOK.
In Its editorial comment on the
outlook for the now year, the New
York Times echoes a general senti
ment qt optimism when it winds up
the detailed review na follows:
"So tho now year opens In hope,
with opportunity, with certainty of
good things, good business, and care
free minds, if only the opportunity be
availed of. .The tariff, that terror
of the timid, is out of the way, tho
Currency net, with Its proroiso of
greater freedom for businoas and of
protection against prostrating panics,
will soon become effective. Unfav
orable eondRlons the world over, of
whloh wo have felt our share of the
effects, aro changing for the better.
Wo havo harvested crops totalling
poarly $10,000,000,000 in value, tho
nation's top record. The railroads of
tho East have made out a convincing
case for nn Increase in rates. Capital
lias accumulated during a period of
slackness and is accumulating. If
there bo any unfavorable condition
existing a3 the new year begins, It Is
in men's minds. If the chief men of
trade and industry will put doubt be
hind them; If they will rid themselves
of causeless fears, tho year 1914 will
oeo a return of the country's pros
perity.
"It was under my administration
that The Hague Court was prevented
from becoming an empty farce," says
OREGON FISH WINNERS. .
Oregon sportsmen may be interest
ed to know that five of tho six "big

awarded prizes In the "Field &
Stream" content, wero caught In Ore
gon streams. The first prize went to
a Montana angler. Tho others were
awarded as follows:
Second prize Maude H. Reed, 13

Third prize H. W. Peterson, 12

If England and Germany continue
their llbudvlsod olllclal hostility to
tho exposition, wouldn't It bo pois
tbte, by a little organized effort, to
return tho compliment fco far nib
Ilrltlsh and German Importers to the
United States arc concerned? Tit for
tat may not bo a pretty moral code,
but It often Is efficacious.
Among other things, tho now in
como tax regulations speak of tho
huBbaud "as tho hoad nnd legal roi-
resentntlvo of tho household nnd gen
eral custodian of Its Income." Which
Is another Indication that Democracy
isn't always up to date.

EMERSON IN OLD AGE.
Evn HI Falling Mtmory Could Net
Mar HU Amiability.
In Dr. J. K. Hosmer's "The Last
Leaf." there Is n pathetic picture of
Emerson In tils old age. when his mem
ory hail failed while his other faculties
remained strong: "I had as a fellow
guest a man who bad long been Intl
mil to with him and whom he wns very
glad to see. Talking nfter tea In the
library. Emerson said: 'I want to tell
you about a friend In Germany. His
name I cannot remember,' and be
moved to nud fro uneasily In his effort
to recall IL This friend nltb whom
we have taken tea tonight, whose
name also I cannot remember' here
agntn came a distressed look at the
failure of his faculty 'I cannot re
member his name either, but he can
tell you of this German friend whoso
namo I havo also forgotten.'
"It was a sorrow to see the breaking
down of a great spirit and his agita
tion as ho was conscious of his wan
Ing ower. And yet. so far as I could
see. It was only the memory that was
going. The Intellectual strength was
still apparent, ami tho amiability of
his spirit wns iierhaim even more than-
If cut than In the years when he was in
the full M)McMlon of hlltim-lf.
'This cnino out In little things. Ho
was overanxious at the tablo lest the
hospitality should mine short, troubled
about the supply of butter and applo
saucn. nnd soon nfter I saw him on
his knee nn the benrth taking caro
that tho fire should catch the wood to
alwite the evening coolness that was
gathering In the room."

A Dover correspondent reports a cu
rious incldeut which was witnessed at
a farm at Elms Vale, on the confines
of the borough. A flock of seagulls fly.
Ing Inland hud taken possession of a
newly sown field and were pecking
away, when a still mora numerous
flock of rooks swooped down nnd at
tacked the gulls. Tho rooks, being
about two to ruch gull, flapped and
rushed tho gulls until they withdrew
to a field somu distance off. The vic
torious rooks then proceeded to enjoy
themselves In the field, having llrst set
what were apparently sentries along
the aide of the Held. It was amusing
to watch thcsi? sentries hustling away
any gull which strayed too neur. It
has been rioted by naturalists that this
setting of sentries Is In accordance
with the habits of rooks. l.oudon Ily
