the I'nited States, not merely ns a
matter of national . honor, but ns a
matter of dollars and cents in our
commercial dealings with all Latin
America, where sympathy could be
gained to so large a degree by no
other one net.
Coder Mr. Wilson's leadership the
democratic party is today n better in
strument of progressive government
than iu a generation, if not in its entire
history, and, what is more to the
point, a better instrument, in the
opinion of this paper, than the rcpub
that we shall not have a permanently

until the most, patent wrongs under
which the masses of tho Mexican peo
lo havo suffered are righted through
their own efforts. Tho recognition of
this principle in the long run, means
the minimum of evil to this country
from the Mexican problem. It is to
Mr. Wilson ' everlasting credit that,
ill' spite of difficulties, discourage
ments and possibly of incidental mis
takes, he has not wavered in his en
deavor to apply this principle to the
changing circumstance of the times.
Much is made, and very properly,

would take office free from hampering
pledges. But if free from pledges, he
is not free from obligations. Having

22. "You cannot get something for
nothing. "
Jtileuii Arnold, head of the commer
einl serviee of the I'nited States in
China, repented this ancient epigram
to Stato university students in com
merce a day or two ago. Mr. Arnold
has been a commercial attache from this
country to China Tor j5 veurs.
His application of the epigram was,
however, new; the peoplo ot the I'nited
States cannot expect something for
nothing from China if they want to
build up a large trade with China, they
must invest in projects for China's do-
lopmcut.
"America has been trading with
China since colonial days, yet today
wo carry on less than 10 per cent of
the world's commerce with that coun
try," said Mr. Arnold. "And China
imports more thnu $100,000,000 worth
of goods each year.
"British, Belgium, German and other
foreign syndicates issue bonds and
secure concessions for financing Chi
nese propects, und when they do they
lose out. Americnii money is not be
ing invested to any extent in Chinese
undertakings; hence the slight de
mand for American products, outside
a few specialties."
Mr. Arnold believes American man
ufacturers will find themselves with
a great surplus as soon as the war
ends, and that they will turn to the
Chinese market. Accordingly he ad
vises a few strong trading agencies
which should handle all types of pro
ducts. Mr. Arnold, who is one of the 10 com
mercial attaches of the department of
commerce, is making a tour of the l:ni-j wheat
ted States, and is urging co-operative
selling to meet tho Chinese trade
problem.
When .Mr. Hughes was governor ho
forced the passage of tho public utili
ties act, which stripped New York
City of all authority over the traction
companies and vcstcil that authority in
tho state but gave the public service
commission no power to deal with a
situation such as. exists. Only the
legislature has power, and to call the
republican legislature in session to en
act emergency legislation dealing with
the strike would be following the pres
ident's precedent and repudiate Mr.
Hughes' criticism.
Henry Zorn's Jersey
Cattle Receive Notice
In Oregon Farmer
- The Oregon Farmer, under tho date of
September 7, contains a brief,
well worded article relative to Henry
Zorn's Jersey cattle, together with a
picture of Mr. Zorn and a portion of his
t'hampoeg farm. The information con
tained in the story is of such a nature
that we deem It quite interesting and
take pleasure in presenting it to our
readers, says the Donnld Record.
"Champoeg, Ore., where in 1842 the
first territorial government was set tin
and where at a meeting of earlv pion
eers steps were taken which saved this
great and rich territory to the I'nited
States, now promises to become famous
as a Jersey breeding ranch. The town
of Champoeg is dead, a boat landing
being nbout all that is left to mark the
site of the momentous meeting of the
few men whose action meant so much
to the future generation; pioneers'
meeting is held and largely attended,
the tenth of May, every year to com
memorate the place, the men and what
they accomplished. The site of old
Champoeg is included in the J,200 or
more acres of Champoeg farm, owned
by Henry Zorn, whose postoffice is Au
rora. His residence, which is still quite
a pretentious buiuding, wus erected be
fore the Civil war and much of the lum
ber in it is hand pinned. One of Mr.
Zorn's uncles was a pioneer of 1848,
another 1850 and his father came to
Oregon in 1802. Considerable of the
farm is in woods pasture and has many
beautiful nooks and dells.
"Ten years ago Mr. Zorn's wife in
duced him to buy a grade Jersey heifer.
She proved to be a great milk and bat
ter cow, ami her sire, a registered buli
of which Mr. Zorn is unable to learn
anything regarding his breeding, sired

CROPS TURNED OUT WELL
There mny have been seasons iu times
past when threshing was as late as it is
this fall, but so far as we are able to
learn, no one seems able to recall them.
It will be remembered that the summer
of 1808 was a wet one; and that much
of the grain was siioiled by rain and
was not threshed at all. But we had j
experienced more hot, dry weather that
season than we have this and all kinds
of grain ripened at tho proper time, i
whereas right now there ore a few I
pieces in this vicinity which have not I
yet been cut.
So far as we have been able to learn
tho yield of grain this fall is quite satis
factory in all instances. It would not
be easy to state what the average is for
the vicinity, but we have heard of one
field, belonging to Mr,
dian is champion bucking horse rider
of the world. He is none other than
Jackson Sundown, the Ii" yenr old Nez
I'erce rider who year after year has
been among the round up contestants.
Before 30,000 people,-yesterday t'-ie
lnrgest single day attendance since
Pendleton began staging her famous
frontier show, he proved his right to
the title, and it was tlie most noinilai
championship ever made.
There was no question in the minds
of the spectators at all, after three
riders iu the finals had finished riding
A mighty cry of "SimcTown, Sundown"
floated out from grandstand and
bleachers and, when the judges' decis
ion was found to conform with their
preference pandemonium reigned.
Sundown was placed on his horse
and rode slowly about the track. The
crowd stood en masse, yelling, cheer
ing and waving hats with wild en
thusiasm. It was an ovation that a
king might havo envied and the old
Indiun, who is a nephew of Chief
Joseph, tho noted Nez Perce warrior,
acknowledged tiio tumultuous plaudits
wiiu a wave or ais aat.
Over among the Indians sat his
wife and daughter and they, and their
people cheered with the rest.
Thrill in finals
Out of a field of 14 contestants se
lected to ride in the semi-finals, Sun
down, Rufus Hollen of Claremore, Ok

in tho finals. Kolleu was just fresh
from winning in two other big back

ns one of the best broncho busters in
the west.
