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-

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

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

Seattle, Aug. 17. "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

newspaper conference, and John E.
Gratke and E. E. Brodle, members ot
