Ontario handles more cattle than Portland and southern Oregon sends Its cattle to San Francisco. Nevertheless the Idea of the steer Is a gixxl one, a fitting gest ure on the part of some hostelry to attract the men who know the plains lx*tter than they know the streets, who come to the city at long Intervals and distrust its confinement. It is unfortunate for Lincoln county that its moral troubles happened in an election year.

Citizens of Lincoln county, like those of any other county, do not care to l>e advertised as an Im moral group Just so someone can get headlines. They feel they can handle their own problems. Fur ther, they probably can. The story Is that during the summer when visitors go to the coast country there is income enough for many little businesses IDEAS that sell or purvey services.
