Pendleton is the utter lack of proper facilities for the training of teachers in the schools now maintained by the state. This is due to the reason that neither of the cities in which these schools are now located have a public schrool enrollment sufficient to give the teachers in school the proppr working in practical teachers. Also the fact that only 13 per cent of the school teachers in Oregon have nor mal training. The location of the school at Pendleton would remedy many of these defects, give a more proportional representation to the education interests of Eastern Ore gon and provide a better means of piving these educational advantages b the teachers. It would also bring the profession into better standing and prevent many prospective teach ers from going out of the state to get .heir normal scholl training; has a public school enrollment of more than a thousand pupils, and the movement has the endorsement of the heads of every educational institution .ia the state, practically every teacher ami every county school .superintendent.

After the system has been adopted, let the court then set apart a certain sum each year for grading, draining and graveling these main artery roads and putting them in the best possible condition for year-round travel. The sum should be a considerable one and the work should be done in the way that will get the most in the way of results for every dollar that is spent. This plan naturally contemplates pa trolling every mile of road thus im proved, for the patrol system is abso lutely essential to the maintenance of good roads. With such a system of market roads reaching every section, Lane county's transportation problems would be very nearly solved. The al leged necessity for a heavy bond issue for costly paving would be done away with, yet we should be in the j best possible position to pave as soon as growing property values make such a course advisable. The work of grading, drainage and graveling would not be lost, for a hard surface could be laid on the existing grade if future conditions justify hard surface pavement.

SPRAY, AUGUST 10 to 12 Ordinarily the public is not con cerned with controversies between the railroads and their employes, but when a controversy reaches a state where a general strike and interup tion of the service is threatened then tlt- general public is bound to take notice. Employes in train and engine ser vice on the railroads of the United States hae demanded an inereaseNn wages approximating $100,000,000 a year, although they nre now the highest paid class of labor in the world. The railroad managers have refused to arbitrate and are taking a strike vote. It may as well be understood at the start that the public is not go ing to sit idly by and fail to invoke it's sovereign power. The railroads not only are public servants but as such have become a public necessity. To suspend operation or to seriously impair the service would entail both great loss and great hardship. Such a situation is at once intolerable and the public will not suffer it to exist. The public will expect the trains to be run and business transacted in the usual orderly manner. Settle ment of the differences between the railroads and their employes must be effected without interuption of the service. If the present employs strike and refuse to operate the trains, then it is up to the manage ment to fill their places with other men. The trains must be operated. The public will stand firmly on its rights in this respect. The public will be all the more de termined by reason of the refusal of the employes to arbitrate. For the principal of arbitration has been re cognized and crystalized into law by all civilized nations and peoples. If the demands of the employes are just they have nothing to fear from arbitration. If the demands are unjust they should be acceded to. In any event the American people are committed to the principles of ar bitration and they will stand on their sovereign right to exact obedience on the part of anyone. Under no cir cumstance or condition will the peo ple suffer hardship or inconvenience resulting alone from a defiance of this principle by either the employer or employe. In commenting on this proposed nation wide strike, the National Bank of New York says:-"The consequen ces of a tie-up of the railways would be so disastrous that the public scarcely credits the posibility. "The railroads have proposed that the entire controversy be subimtted to the Inter-State Commission for ad judication but offered to agree to arbitration under the Newlands act. "This offer makes a strong appeal to the public. The members of the Inter-State Commission are the best informed men upon the railway situa tion in the country. They know whether it is practicable to reduce the train runs to eight hours without reorganizing the whole service , and greatly increasing the costs of opera tion. They know how the wages of the trainmen compare with the wages of other railway employes, and with wages in other occupations. They know all about the ability of the companies to pay higher wages and whether or not it can be done without increasing rates. They can consid er the entire subject of railway in come and disbursements together and if they conclude that wages should be higher, they would have, what no body else would have the power to adjust rates to meet the new require ments. It cannot be said that the Commission is either without ade quate information or the judicial qualifications to deal with the case. The more the proposal is considered the more clearly it will appear to be the best possible disposition of the matter. "It is not reasonable on the part of the trainmen to demand that their claims for more pay shall he allowed under duress, because they have pow er to tie up the transportation sys tems. The day has gone by for eith er the managers or employees to at tempt to settle such an issue by force, without regard for the vast public involved." La Grande has entered the metro politan class by putting on a "speed 'em up" day. Motorcycle races will feature the day's attraction in that city. Don't forget the Morrow County Fair dates are set for September 14, 15 and 16. Now if we only had the grain ele vators. In our last issue we made the state ment that R. B. Wilcox purchased his silo material from the Tum-A-Lum Lumber company at Lexington for $192.00. In order that this may not be misleading or appear Inconsistent with the prices now quoted by this company for their hundred-ton silo we will say that Mr. Wilcox contract ed for his silo 18 months ago. Since that time the price of lumber has ad vanced somewhat and the present cost for such a silo would be $259.00. We make this explanation in behalf nf the lumber company, for fear it might place them in a bad light in view nf our article of last week. Their price on silos includes everything hard ware, cement, lumber, building naner and paint. pSA W f ,J03ACCO.IS PREPARED '' K': f 4V'r. A !
