MOHHOW COIXTV OFFICIAL PAPER Thursday, April 29, 1915. Those of our citizens who visited Hardman on Monday to attend the I, 0. O. F. celebration, are loud in their praise of the splendid time they had, and the cordial treatment ac corded them by the citizens of the little south-end city. It would seem that there was nothing left undone that should have been done for the comfort and pleasure of the visitors and there was nothing to mar the en joyment of the occasion. It is no light undertaking to entertain so large a portion of the outside communities, and for a place the size of Hardman to do so well and make such a splen did impression, speaks volumes for her enterprising citizens. These gath erings do a community good and the town of Hardman has gained much to her praise in the manner in which she entertained her visitors on Mon day. We would call attention to a com munication in another column on the road question. This matter of good roads for Morrow county is a very live question, and our correspondent touches upon a point or two well worthy of earnest consideration. We have our ideas about the carrying on of road work in this county; in times past we have had something to say, but just now we are willing to give this discussion over to the citizens of the county the tax payers who have to foot the bills. We like the suggestion offered in this article that there be a free and open discussion of this question, and wish to assure our readers that the columns of this pa per are open at all times to the fair discussion of any question of public policy. We especially desire that this road question be freely discussed in the pages of this paper, and will give all the space to it that is deemed nec essary. We do not invite controversy but frank discussion of the question cannot but result in good. Come on with your ideas. Four dollars and thirty-five cents is not a great sum to part with, and especially when the cause is a worthy one, such as a visit to The Dalles and Big Eddy next week to enjoy the cele bration of the opening of the great Dalles-Celilo Canal. There will doubtlessly be a large representation of Morrow county citizens present on this occasion to join their voices in the general rejoicing of the popula tion of the Columbia River basin over the completion of the great work. It marks another epoch in the ad vancement of the Northwest and is the opening up of the great avenue for advancement ana progress of the Inland Empire. WHY EDITORS ARE INNOCENT. In Stillwater, Minn., the convicts of the state prison publish a little mag azine called the "Mirror," for their own edification and instruction. They sometimes have difficulty in handling all the technical problems connected with the somewhat pretentious pub lication because there are never any editors in prison! The amateurs who run the magazine have pondered over the situation and have the following to say. "Why is it that from the first in ception of our paper to the, present time we have never had an editor to sojourn in our midst? Other pro fessions have been well represented. Of preachers we have had enough to furnish subsistence to an African chief for a year; of doctors, sufficient In numbers to depopulate a state; and of lawyers, enough to establish a good-sized colony in hades. But editors not one." This is a compliment to the pro fession and comes from a source which is authoritative. Of course, there may have been editors in prison at some time, somewhere, but these were mostly "journalists" not real industrious, every-day editors. With becoming modesty, we can state that the reasons for the high grade of morality existing among editors are two-fold. First, their oc cupation requires them to maintain a judicial attitude, which generally prevents them from doing anything in violation of laws. Second, they haven't time to do anything wicked even if they wanted to. By a strange coincidence, just af ter the Stillwater paper issued its startling statement, the University of Wisconsin instituted a labor which may serve to drive our second point home forcibly. Its experts are be ginning a "survey" of Wisconsin newspapers to learn the insides of the publishing business. Among other things, the experts ask what editors do with their time. In a general way, the result of the survey on this point may be forecast fairly accu- rate. It will show that the average editor J has the following things to do almost j every day; I Sweep out the office, hire a new of fice boy, read seventy-five out-of-town newspapers, write from three to six columns of news, read proofs on forty columns of type, indulge in one or two fights with irate sub scribers, chat with ten or twenty politicians, open and answer corres pondence, reply to foolish questions 1 over the telephone, grant employes a raise in pay, reduce his own sti pend, compose several deep editorials explaining subjects which have puz zled the world's greatest minds, call on the banker to discuss the weather, eat a sandwich, put coal on the fur nace fire, attend the theatre, church and prizefight, look in at a reception or two, act as judge at a raffle, try to collect bills, attend choir rehear sal and then at odd times perform a few chores around the house. Under the circumstances, how can an editor be wicked.-Seaside Signal. NATURALLY. The St. Louis Globe-Democrat says 1 that the woman who has become the 'bride of the 101-year-old Joplln man is likely to discover that he is some , what "sot in his ways." According to the lone Journal, that city is seriously considering the oiling of their principal business streets. This is a good idea. Hepp ner might arrange to loan them the use of out oil sprinkler for a few-days. Senator Porter J. McCumber, in speaking at the Eugene Commercial 1 Club recently, said: "In our haste to . bring about reform, we are abandon ' ing the fundamental principles of government necessary for freedom I we are adopting paternalistic and socialistic theories. We have adopt I ed the ideas of a new school we are abandoning the constitutional prin ciples and drifting out to the sea of every varying public fancy. We look to the theory that we no longer need a constitution to check us and that nothing should stand in our way. Our ancestors did need a constitution and they knew that the American people required a constitution tested by centuries to bind the people. Every paragraph of the constitution is for the protection of the minority against the dangers of the majorities political and religious Intemperance. Gentlemen, the great problem con fronting the American people today is the duty to create a careful and conseratlve American citizenship. Let us see to it that our foreigners are taken into our schools and sent PT71T1 11 H Bros.

General Merchandise out as American citizens; see to it that we stand for law and order and for calm, careful judgment on the part of the American government." In other words, let us preserve the very foundation of our government and curb the political vaudeville of the professional office seeker. Rain! Rain in abundance, the farmers rejoice. Let Heppner's hard surface walks are on the increase. Many property owners are laying concrete walks and they say that they are as cheap, if not cheaper, than board walks. Are your walks worn out? If they are, you might do well to confer with the concrete man, and find out just what the cost would be. The low figures might surprise you. Besides, you would have a walk that would last for all time, and something that would add to the beauty of your pro perty as well. Snow the last of April ! A few flakes fell this morning after the rain, but they melted as they struck the ground. Now Is the time to swat the fly. Drs. Lowe & Turner will be in Lexington May 12, Hardman May 13,. Heppner May 14-15 and lone May 16-17. 9
