SOMEWHAT PERSONAL
It lins been the pleasure of the cd
itor of Tito Bulletin to have more
Readers compliment and thank htm
'tor his editorial comment on nml ills
cusslon of school matters in the past
two weeks than on any subject for
eoiiio time. lie has also been told that
he Is nil wrong on the subject and
one subscriber has sent word that
he will have to stop his "radical
talk on the school question or stop
sending the paper to this particular
person.
This sort of thing is happening all
the time, especially when any con
trovcrslal subject Is under discussion
and is undoubtedly tho lot of any
newspaper "editor. Differences of op
Inion are said to make horse races.
They also create friction and that
In turn often produces n warmth and
heat of argument that leads to anger.
Now Just there Is where we stop. Tho
job of producing a newspaper In
eludes the 'duty of discussing public
questions but it we discuss them in
anger we are prejudiced. And that is
one thing we try not to be.
The editor' of The Bulletin, as he
has said before, lays no claim to om
niscience. He knows that what he
has to say from day to day cannot
please all his readers and he has an
idea that it he 'tried to please all he
would please none. He, therefore,
does his best to set forth his honest
opinion, not dogmatically as one who
would lay ' down the law, but simply
as bis opinion which, after all, is all
it Is.
He welcomes criticism and dis
agreement,, especially when It comes
In a friendly communication which
can be printed and read by all. He Is
glad when he pleases his readers,
sorry when he Is wrong, but never
ready to buy the approval of his read
er's at the expense of Iris honest opin
ion. And that Is the only thing for
which he asks credit, that Is, that
he says In this column what Is his
honest opinion.
THE NONCHALANCE ATTITUDE
No more Is the nonchalance atti
tude to hold back the development
ot the Harney valley. Irrigation Is
to perpetuate continuity and two
blades of gra,ss are to grow where
only one does now. But let the
Harney County News tell It In its
own way. Says the News:
"Humankind has long since clever
ly and peculiarly distinguished Itself
by an Intuition ot self-preservation
and need, to .provide for continuity
In existence. This ability is tho
force that has been potent in foster
ing progress. So confident and com
plete have .been the multitudious
achievements of science that the lay
man has ceased to marvel whether
he understands or not. However,
for a generation, or better, have the
people of this valley Utilized the
most obvious graciousness provided
by nature, .until nature's resources
OH DEATH, WHERE IS THY STING ?
WW ( sRo-isrs. wall
are now almost exhausted ami must
call for mankind to assert a little
more than exploitation nml to co
operate with tho natural resources
for recovery and full development
power.
"So it is in tho past wo have
maintained the nonchalance atti
tude. There has been little atten
tion given to tho exhaustion ot
natural sources of supply that has
run to bo only exploited by mail'
kind, but the end of enduranco in
nature must now bo taken into ac
count. A halt must bo called of
the ravaging and exploitation and
Instead a cooperation with nature
commands mindfulness' of today. It
Is hard for some to realize they
must desist from robbing and per
force give something back to per
petuate nature's continuity. Not
only to perpetuate continuity, but
to improve upon tho handiwork as
it now is and make two blades of
grass grow where only one does
now.
"Forty and fifty years ago the
profit in the stock Industry for Har
ney county was large In compensa
tlon for the energy and capital ex
pended. Twenty-five years ago the
industry invited some concern and
apprehension; for the last decade
the profit has not been commensur
ate with the energy and capital In
ested as compared to the profits In
other industries or lines of business
"A decade or so ago It began to
dawn upon the citizenry of Harney
alley that some change must bo
made. Irrigation by scientific metb
ods and a change of crop growing
were things talked and thought of
but there were deep-seated preju
dices and long-nursed selfishness of
third ot a century that clouded
the full breadth ot vision until now
when desperation awakens. Non
chalance no longer exists, but a keen
alertness prevails that portends
greater things for the great Harney
valley and associated valleys."

CASES NOT ALIKE
Whllo we were very glad to give
space to "M. H.'s" communication on
the subject of the school striko we
cannot agree thiit there Is any an-
ology between It and tho lioston Tea
Party. He Is mistaken when ho at
tempts to Justify one on the basis of
tho principles back of tho other. In
all seriousness let us compare the
two.
Of course tho Tea party was a re
volt against constituted authority
and to that extent was comparable
with tho school affair. There, how
ever, the likeness ends for, if wc re
member our history correctly, tho
lioston revolt took placo only when
all other protests and efforts to ob
tain tho correction of an unjust con
dition had failed. This condition,
too, was ono that affected directly
the participants in tho tea dumping
proteet.
In the case of tho striking students
all these elements wcro absent. In
tho first placo the students themsel
ves had no personal grievance. We
have not heard It asserted that Mr.
Paulson's severance from the teach-
ng staff of the high school affected
the quality of the Instruction In any
way. Tho students had no grtir;y-
nnce. They simply made Mr. Paul
son's grievance their own. Now Mr.
Paulson has a complete and adequate
remedy at law for any Injury he rnny
havo suffered so that so far as just
ice is concerned he needed no help
from tho student body.
Taxation without representation
was the causo ot the lioston affair.
Education without Paulson Is no
ground for complaint. If M. H. thinks
that our students cannot be educated
without giving them the right to so
lect tholr own teachers and to pro
test at bourd decisions that aro ob
jectlonablo to them ho ought to set
bout securing a change in our school
laws.
get things right to start oft Is by
a closed season of several years. In
their own Interest tho sportsmen of
this section should secure legislation
to this effect at tho next semlon of
the legislature.
GOOD TIMES AHEAD
Prosperity Is within our reach In
America.
All we need to have and to hold It
Is a sane, sure grasp on Its simple
elements.
They aro Industry, Integrity and
Faith.
These are the cardinal virtues of
human relations. Thoy aro tho under
pinnings ot healthy, natural business
life and the foundation ot a whole
some social system.
They are tho fountainhcad from
which progress springs.
A well-known business economist has
called them the "Fundamentals of
Prosperity."
Iluylng Is tho backbone ot prosper
Ity. An active market means moro
employment, steadier earnings; bene
fits are passed around.
The call of today Is for cheerful
thinking, willing working and con
structive action by you everybody
NOW.
Tomorrow's chnnge for tho better
will come about through tho combln
cd efforts of each and everyone of
us.
Hy sheer force of numbers nnd co
operation, by the high power of heart
and mind, wo can put business on a
firm, stable basis.
We can do this because all of the
material factors making for bettor
business are right.
Let us link our faith with Indus

stood on tho slto of tho Pilot Ilutto
Inn and seen deer in the meadow
across tho river near tho present foot
bridge. Great herds used to range
(ho homestead section to the east
and now all are gone.
Today It Is a lucky hunter who
gets a sight of a deer within 75 miles

To The Editor:

From Intlmnto ncqunlntnnce with
many of these students I know mni
their strike was not carried on with
tho feeling that they wero deliberate-
ly breaking n school law; nor was u
hnrmisn thov wished to over-rule tho
schoolboard that tho budding revolu
tionists paraded tho streets wiin
ihnlr anneal for "Paulson anil luir
play." Their striko was a protest
against whnt they believed was tho
unwarranted dismissal of tho princi
pal who had always uphold trutn
and fnlrncss.
Our early Americans In 1776 she.d
their blood In their revolt against
unfair taxes and tariffs. If our stu
dents aro real Amcrlcuns, why can
thoy not show their revolt against
unfairness, not by tho loss of llfo but
by losing a part of tho studies that
should bo benefitting them. Tho
school bourd Intnndod to be fnlr; but
bo did England In 1770.
I do not wish to criticize tho nctlon

board; tholrs' is a thankless task ot

If thoy did fcol that thoy had mado

To The Editor-
Von asked for suggestions on auto
mobile parking nn business streets.
Here' one.
The system jidopted In Pendleton
Is very practical a resorved nnd
marked strip aloug tho center of
streets In which cars are parked lit
oblique, positions, being eptered from
either side, The several advantages
of Ihls system uro obvious.
On thu Pacific and thu Columbia
Itlver highways the custom of dim
ming lights when meeting other curs
Is practically universally observed,
there being very few violations of
this requirement. Thin does not
seem lo be observed by drivers In tli-i
rural districts in Central Oregon.
Furthermore hnrsedrnwii vehicles do
not carry bend or tall lights, as re
quired by law. The pilch of lights on
aulos, as required by law, do not per
mit a driver to see tho road very
far ahead. Consequently ho comes
suddenly upon a loud of hay or wood
when lo nil appearance tho road
ahead is clear. In tho event of collis
ion and damage In circumstance.
would most likely full upon thu drher
of tho horsedruwn vehicle.
Motorists ure entitled to protection
through tho enforcement of tho law
pertaining to lights on vehicles ot
whatever kind.
I hope this observation will be as
welcome as suggestions called for on
street parking,
