NORMAL SCHOOL IUDI.Y Ni.I'DK!)
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

adopt it by a formal order an order
that by mandate of the public, at
least, will be binding on future
courts.
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

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.

Now if we only had the grain ele

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.
