TIME FOR RAIN
Farmers have prayed fur rain
since the last drop fell. Dry land
farmers are always praying for
rain; it is their immemorial cus
tom, born of long experience with
drouths and gf knowledge of tht
difference that timely rain make*
in the number of sacks of grair.
which provides the wherewithal
for new cars, new farms, new fur
niture, new clothes and the in
numerable things they buy.
It is now time that the rajr
should fall in Sherman county. Tht
grain has faded from its dar’
green hue of a few weeks ago
the thick foliage has cured am
will not take the moisture needet
by the heads, which are nov,
emerging from the boot. Rair
now would nearly all be used fo:
the grain and it is time for it t<
begin to fall.
We would have a crop of som<
kind even if the rain did not com
for farmers in Sherman count}
grow wheat in some measur
whether it rains or not; but with
out rain the crop is never satis
fying to the farmer who want?
above all things, to see his acre?
yield their utmost.
We need rain of the soakinp
kind, that falls day and night
till the earth is soggy and th-
cattle push their feet hoof dee’
in the sod; rain that falls gently
persistently until farmers sea
the skies looking for a bit of blu
to herald the end of the we
spell.
Rain is often described as r
gloomy period and rainy days arr
thought to be depressing on th<
spirit. ,No one who has live«
long in a dry land during the per
iod when crops are growing car
hold to this notion. Rather it if
a joyous occasion, when it rainr
and there are shouts of laughter
and cries of pleasure when it rain
in May or June in the wheat
country.
It is time for rain.
EUROPEAN TROUBLES
One cannot help wondering, o
reading the news from Europe, i
Russia is not about to preemp
the traditional place of Englan
as the balance between the othe
great powers.
There has recently
been hope
that Russia Vould align itsel
with the democracies and aid ii
stopping the dictator ruled nation
from taking over more territor
and the world is still waiting t
see what will happen in this mat
tef. Surely Russia is as dictator
ially governed as any nation whiri
makes it doubtful if Stalin wi'
join the democracies of the dicta
tors.
Perhaps the only hope of th<
democratic countries is in th«
fact that dictators can hardly be
expected to co operate with eacl
other for long bectuse each one
must be the boss.
England has for years been able
to keep the powers of Europe
whether governed by kings or
premiers in some sort of balanc«
most of the time. During fha
period Napolean and the Kaiser
have tried for domination only to
be defeated. Now England is
definitely on the side of the dem
ocracies which may hamper its
statesmen.
Russia claims to have a consti
tntion more democratic than any
other in the world and Stalin rule?
as if he had never even read it
No one can foretell the direction
it may take in the struggle now
going on. Its traditional enemy
is Japan, now switching from ad
herence to the Rome Berlin a x is
to a position that 'will enable it
to work with a freer hand in
Manchuria.
It is probable that the results
in Europe cannot be foretold from
the information now at hand:
events not yet foreseen will likely
have the greatest influence on the
possibility of war—and may they
tend toward peace.
It's a cinch

know what he said. As an in
dividual he might have expressed
some doubt about the safety of
the road and as a governor he
might have wished that he . thad
members of the highway commis
sion with him. For Cottonwood if
a secondary road, being the officia1
interior passage from Biggs to
Pendleton, or, when connected with
‘he Wapinitia highway from Pen
dleton to Portland.
Men with less official promi
leece have passed over th? road
before now and have expressed
themselves about it in language
that indicated awe and relief. To
Lnr: Bladine, newspaper man of
McMinnville, the road seemed t«
be pasted on the side of the cliffs
Libert Bede’s comment was tha4
he road was held in place by sag«
’.rush and he marveled at the en
tire luck of signboards until hr
’•effected that they would be mos4
;nnppropriat? on a road that had
neither cross road or place tc
‘urn around.
W p wish the best for our stat«
»oard of control and would not
have anything happen to them fo
he w orld,but if they were a bif
cared, at least n little nervous
vhiie climtbing the narrow grad'
vc would be m-ore inclined t'
mile than weerp. For then they
right whisper to those who direct
he placing of highway funds tha1
he Cottonwood road could w ef
"cct ive a bit of notice-—and a bit

The next change on the Stat«

pleasure of Herman Oliver, Gran

banker« Governor Sprague, shor
ly after taking office, let it b
known that Oliver would be name
to succeed E. B. Aldrich on th
commission if and when the Per
dleton publisher should decide t
retire. This week the goverm
indicated that the change woul
probably be made “some time th
rummer, when it suits Mr. Oliver’
convenience.” - Apparently Alrtric
is ready to quit the commission a
iny time and only continues t
serve at the request of the govci
icr. Oliver who is now a membe'
of the state board of higher fd»
•ation, will retire from that boar
