Sam Hughes Company The New State Highway Commissioner Mathe ..-.4 1 ia.i.bj, eighth vice president of the American Fed eration of Labor, is known as the "understudy" to Sam Gompers, pres dent of the American Federation of Labor. During Gompers' absence in Europe, Woll was editor of the Amer ican Federationist. He has been Gompers' assistant for the last year. The governor has honored both himself and Umatilla county in the selection of J. Newton Burgess as the successor of V. L. Thompson in the mpo.tant office ot highway commis sioner. There is no man better fitted lo undertake the duties of this diffi cult station than Mr. Burgess. He possesses a comprehensive grasp of the affairs of the state. He has a wide acquaintance gained from contact with leaders of the business world, and as a senator in the parliament ot the commonwealth. He is an inti mate friend of the retiring commis sioner, and will have the advantage of his experience and technical know ledge of road conditions. If any man can take up the threads broken by Mr. Thompson's retirement, it is as suredly Mr. Burgess, and the state is to be congratulated on his appoint- Thin, Dainty and Awful Fussy m WM r M . or -j- -J r-.4w-h ) ment. The vast territory comprising the trans-Cascade region of Oregon, once popularly known as the Cow coun ties, has a very vital and a very com prehensive interest in the highway program, and the mighty livestock nterests and forestry interests there located could select no man of sound er judgment or fairer purpose than Mr. Burgess, who knows by personal ouch the necessities of the majestic territory where he has passed his mature years, and in the development of which he has had a very import ant and effective part. Entwined with the roadlconstruction ot the state is the broader outline of the federal government. As time ad vances there will be larger govern mental appropriations, and more elaborate government plans. Oregon will be fortunate that she has a man upon her commission with informa tion and vision to make cooperation sy metrical and effectual. Whether the legislation requiring the commissioners to serve without compensation is wise may well be questioned. But in the existing sit uation that is the law. Fortunately Mr. Burgess is amply able to devote his time and talent to the public weal freely and he posesses the public spirit 'to make the sacrifice. What ever he does will be honestly done and will be ably done. Pendleton Tribune. Bear Plentiful. Bear are Baid to be very plentiful n the mountains this summer, ac cording to the sheepmen who are on .heir summer range with their sheep. A number of complaints have reached Deputy Game Warden Hazeltlne, and the stockmen claim that the bear have destroyed some ot their stock. One ot the reasons ascribed is the fact that berries are very scarce this year and it has caused the bear to search in quest of other food, consequently their visitations on bands ot sheep. Mutton is worth to much money for bear food, in the opinion of stock men, and they have appealed to Mr. Hazeltine tor his assistance in rid ding the range of bruin. Blue Moun tain Eagle. B. H.

"United we'll ride In high priced cars, divided we will have to ride In flivvers. There Is nothing penurious about Oregon. We' would have paid it had I he amount been twice what it is yes, even three times." So declared the members of the executive committee ot the Oregon State Editorial association today as they drew a bank draft for 6 cents to send to the Chicago Tribune as a tender to Henry Ford for the nominal award made him by the Jury in his suit for libel. "We realize the dangers of news paper publication as well as anyone In the world can," said C. E. Ingalls president of the editorial association! "With the necessity of producing reading matter for people who think that the war for Independence was fought In 1812 and think that the history we write is bunk, we have enough on our minds without expect ing some of these Intellectuals to fall on us for anything from 6 cents up lo a million dollars. The Oregon editors are attending the National Editorial association convention here. Other Oregonians who helped to raise the "pot" for the Tribune were Lloyd Riches, secretary ot the Ore gon State Editorial assoclaton; S. C. Morton, president "of the Oregon newspaper conference, and John E. Gratke and E. E. Brodle, members ot the conference executive committee.
