For over a third of a cen tury this epic drama of the old west has been dis played with a brilliancy unequalled by any other show of its kind in the other states of the great west. In literature and drama the events of the settlement of the west and of the ranges have filled many pages of the romantic history since the days of ’49. The de velopment of our country east of the Mississippi con tained many tragedies, wars and laborious effort, and laid the foundations of our nation, but the west had its wide open spaces, mountains, varied terrain, resources, and a freedom of action of its peoples, w hich have contributed to the romance of the coun- try like no other region. The life of the Round Up is continued because of this deep sentiment among western people. The tragic death of Johnny Nye on Tinian island in the deep distances of the Pacific brings the war very close to the citizens of Hermiston. He was a very capable young man, and while only 23 years old, had made a fine success of business, and was well known and highly respected by all. The loss of such men, and there are many of them, 70 from Uma tilla county alone, shows us how much we are paying for freedom in the best blood of the nation, and makes us feel how little we pay in dollars and home effort to keep the war going, that we may live after wards in security and liberty. Hermiston has reached a stage when it must lay aside some of its old garments and take on new clothes. ■ It has leaped from 800 people to over 3000, and our obligation to our new conditions and oppor tunities cannot be considered in our older conserva tive ways. New planning, and along with this new expenses, must be set out in our program. There should be no fear of the future, as resources have been better stabilized, the needs are greater, and the ways of living demand better improvements. Tax valuations have increased, money, in local hands, is much greater, and our growing pains should cause us very little agony. by all.
