A young couple whose names we
were unable to learn, passed through
Heppner today on a hike from Ander
son, Indiana, to San Francisco. They
are making the trip on a wager and
are to walk the entire distance, en
quiring their way as they go along,
carrying neither chart nor compass.
They did not stop here only long
enough to get the direction to Fossil
and passed on out of town eating a
lunch of cheese and crackers. They
have ju3t so long a time in which to
reach their destination, and if they
run short of funds they are obliged
to stop and work. They are 18 days
ahead of their schedule at this point.

THE MOST PROFTABLE BUSINESS
This seems to be the day and age
of regulation of all branches of in
dustry from the peanut stand to the
transcontinental railroad.
Private capital and enterprise is
being driven further and further back
into its hole.
The man with money is afraid to
Invest it in an industry for fear of
the different brands of state and gov
ernment regulations which cause the
most optimistic to hesitate.
The most profitable business today
is promoting some new Btate or gov
ernment commission and getting
yourself appointed on it at a much
larger salary than you could earn in
any other way.
The beauty of promoting and ob
taining a high salaried position on
one of these commissions is that you
can be totally ignorant of the work
ings of the business you may be ap
pointed to regulate.
Any money you need to experi
ment with may be taken from the
tax-payer and if you run short of
your estimate just ask the legislature
for an increased appropriation, for
the bills must be paid, and the tax
payer can always furnish the money.
Another beauty of promoting a
commission is that it employs no la
borers and you do not have to wor
ry about a big payroll, high taxes, ac
cident insurance and a few dozen oth
er burdens now imposed upon the
employer of labor.
Although you may have been a
failure in every line of business you
have ever undertaken, you will find
that as a commissioner, sitting in
your state government office, with
everything paid for by some one else,
your mind will broaden and you will
feel fully able to assume control of
the largest industries and make the
rates and regulate without question
the largest railroad systems of the
country.
The beauty of It all is, if you make
a mistake the other fellow will have
to pay the bill and it will in no way
effect you.
La: t but not I ast you have become
a member'of the official aristocracy
of the country and will undoubtedly
hold a political job the rest of your
life.
FE PORTS
BUILDERS OF
COMMERCE
CONGRESS SHOULD GIVE THEM
PREFERENCE IN APPRO
PRIATIONS. By Peter Radford.
This nation is now entering upon
an era of marine development The
wreckage of European commerce baa
drifted to our shores and the world
war is making unprecedented de
mands for the products of farm and
factory. In transportation facilitlei
on land we lead the world but our port
facilities are inadequate, and our flag
is seldom seen in foreign ports. If
our government would only divert tbe
energy we have displayed in conquer
ing the railroads to mastering the
commerce of tbe sea, a foreign bot
tom would be unknown on the ocean's
highways.
This article will be confined to
discussion of our ports for the pro
ducts of the farm must pass over our
wharfs before reaching the water. We
have in this nation 51 ports, of which
41 are on the Atlantic and 10 are on
tbe Pacific Coast. The Sixty-second
Congress appropriated over $51,000,-
000 for improving our Rivera and
Harbors and private enterprise levies
a toll of approximately $50,000,000
annually in wharfage and charges for
which no tangible service Is rendered.
The latter item should be lifted oil
the backs of the farmer of this mv
tlon and this can be done by Congress
directing its appropriations to ports
that are free where vessels can tie up
to a wharf and discharge her cargo
free of any fee or charge.
A free port is progress. It takes
out tbe unnecessary link in the chain
of transactions in commerce which
has for. centuries laid a heavy band
upon commerce. No movement is so
heavily laden with results or will
more widely and equally distribute
its benefits as that of a free port
and none can be more easily and ef
fectively secured.
HE VITAL PROBLEM Of
CUE
By Peter Radford.
There is no escaping the market
problem and the highest development
of agriculture will not be attained
until it is solved, for a market
is as necessary for the producer
as land on which to grow his crop.
Governmental and educational insti
tutions have spent $180,000,000 in the
United States during the past ten
years for improving soil production
end improving seeds and plants, but
very little attention and less money
has been given to the marketing side
of agriculture.
The problem is a monumental one
and one which will never be solved
until it gets within the grasp of a
gigantic organization where master
minds can concentrate the combined
experience and wisdom of the age
upon it. It is a problem which the
farmers, merchants, bankers, editors'
and statesmen must unite in solving.
The Farmers' Union stands for all
there is in farming from the most
scientific methods of seed selection to
the most systematic and profitable
plans of marketing, but does not be
lieve in promoting one to the neglect
of the other. We consider the work
of farm demonstrators valuable and
we ask that governmental and com
mercial agencies seeking to help ub,
continue to give ua their assistance
and advice, but we believe that their
influence should be extended to the
marketing side of our farm problems
also.
We cannot hope to develop manu
facturing by over-production of the
factory; we cannot build up mercan
tile enterprises by the merchants load
ing tbeir shelves with surplus goods
and no more can we develop agricul
ture by glutting the market with a
surplus of products.
DARIUS
The neigh of a horse made Darius
King of Persia, the six contending
powers for the thone agreeing among
themselves that the one whose horse
should neigh first should possess the
kingdom. This ancient method of
settling disputes among politicians
could be revived with profit today.
If our partisan factions and petty pol
iticians, could only settle their dis
putes by the neigh of a horse, the
bark of a dog or the bray of a donkey,
it would be a great blessing and would
give our citizens a better opportunity
to pursue the vocations of Industry
free from political strife.
Let those who pick political plums
by raising rows and who flash swords
dripping in the blood of Industry un
derstand that they cannot turn the
public forum into a political arena and
by a clash of personal aspirations
still the hammer and stop the piow
and that their quarrels must be settled
la the back alleys ot civilization.
