TALK IS CHE A P.
ThIU is cheap but it takes money
to buy whiskey. Likewise it takes
money to build railroad.
Gilliam county has had a

et the people are not natistied.
Th? people want a railroad, not
a whirlwind of uot air.

over about 200 acres a day and is
often operated continuously, day
and night.
But the interesting feature oft
this method of farming lies in the!
economy with which it is done. It
is said that an acre oflandcanbe
put in grain with the discs, for?
cents and with the plows for 10
cents an acre, exclusive of seed,
intend to build and that they will
build at once..
Without questioning the sinceri
ty of the gentlem in who have been
-talking railroad here lately the
Itlobe begs to suggest that, so far,
none of them have attempted to
make it clear to the people that
they really mean business that
they can and will build the road
within a year. The people of this
county are all from Missouri on
this sort of a project. Railroad
promoters must "show them" that
they can "promote'' something
besides siroccos.
The people want a railroad and
they are willing. to do anything in
reason to secure one. But it is
hardly reasonable to ask the peo
ple to subscribe for $i50,000 of
bonds or to give a 3-year right of
way on the bare, bald assertion of
one or two strangers that "We will
build the road." Anybody can
make promises but the promoter
needs excellent backing to be able
to make good.
The railroad propter who will
tonij to the citizens of Gilliam
county with a clear cut business
proposition, who will identity him
fiCif Satisfactorily and show the
people just what he means to do
"and can di, ca-i dj business here.
J3ut he must cut out hot air and
not think child's talk will fool all
the people all the time.
It takes money to build railroads
It also requires some judgement and
common g jnse.

THE COUNTRY PAPERS
kkp THE FAIR.
The Tortland Telegram, when it
has nothing else to write about, has
fitMen into the habit- of taking up
"certain country papers" and lam
basting them on account of their
alleged failure to print gratis, "cer
tain" stuff that is being sent out by
the state board of the Lewis tmd
Clark fair. By so doing the Tele
gram is playing the role of a very
cheap advocate. If employed by
the commissioners it is hanllv
earning its money. If not employ
ed, for the sake of the fair, it would
better save its space.
The facts are, the "co intry pa
pars" have done and are doing more
than all other agencies combined
for the 1905 fair. Without the
suppirtof the country press th:?
half millio i appropriation for the
nterprise would not have passed
the last legisl iture. B jc; t H3 of tin
lriendly disposition shown by the
c-Juntry press the board is not war-
runted ia still, not only asking
space but dictating what shall go
into that space. Beg jars cannot
bj clnosers. When Lydia Pink
h iui asks for space it is sold to her
with the privilege of writing her
evil copy. The fair hoard has put
rthe Lewis and Clark. - fair on the
si u plan' with Lydia Pinkhatu's
pills and a-i appaal is made to
country papers, in sweet charity's
name, to advertise their wares. If
Ijft alone th cjuntry papers will
support the fair but they will do it
in their own way. They are doing
it now with scarcely an exception.
What the papers object to is the
stuff sent out and the timeitis
Bent. It is the practice with the
board to let the Portland papers
have anything of a newsy nature
that occurs in connection with the
fair, and the secretary, who is not
a nawspaper man, is instructed to
nend the left over trash to the
country papers and the country
press is showing good judgement
in rejecting it. News, not ancient
history, ia what the papers want,
