majority of the members favored
brains, while an able minority argued
brilliantly for the supremacy of dress.
Some expressions of the members
views are remarkably striking. One
said that the women of today are
broadening their views as we'll as their
waists"
Another that she hated the clothes
we wear, but we can't make guys Of
ourselves"
Another remarked that "all things
being equal, the woman with the pref
test hat will get there first"
While it is not easy to see the bear
ing of all this upon political study. 1t
is safe to say that the debate was
probably more interesting than most
discussions upon the tariff and finance.

Illinois evidently has drawn largely

but now has only 169. Ohio gave birth
to 94S, but has only 535 left. In In

California does better yet. In the

equally amusing contemporaries made

The West Is eettin the Easts Brains

(Salt Lake Telegram.)
Is the far west capturing the brains
and the culture of the United States
at the expense of the east?
The book who's Who?" contains
the biographies of 1900 Americans who
have done something emitting them to
have their names enrolled in such a
work These sketches give the birth
places and the residences of the sub
jects. and the statistics of these two
facts have cen complied by states.
To the chagrin of Boston and Mainel
and Philadelphia and Hackensack, the
statistics show that, with the exception
of New York and Florida, the east is
losing its smart sons and daughters,
many Of whom are following the star
of empire to the west. Not that the
east has lost it's supremacy in num-
bers yet, but the movement westward
indicates that it may in a few years.
New York city. of course, draws
business and professional men and art
lists and experts from the country be-
cause of the financial opportunities Of
fered there. Consequently while only
2,640 of the who's Who" were born
in that state there are 3,675 now liv-
ing within it's borders, a gain of nearly
40 per cent.
But Illinois. largely due to the mag
netism of Chicago. has done relatively
better. 1t has GAL of these distin-
guished people among it's residents,
though it has given birth to only 5S2
This shows a gain of about 80 per cent.
And except New York and Florida,
almost every state east of the Missis
sippi, counting out Illinois. shows fewer
people of talent and eminence than the
number born to them. Counting I'LL
nois as belonging to the west, and
counting out New York and Florida,
while S507 of the prominent men of
the country were born east of the Miss
issippi, in the same territory today
only 5,996 are living.
AS the gain in New York and Flor
ida of eminent men in these state today
over the number born there Is only
1,076, it will be seen that the east has
lost to the west nearly 1900 eminent
names in spite of the attractive hold

CHEERFUL NEWS

Things are moving In way to in
sure big developments for the Clear
water and upper Snake river valleys
Obstacles that have heretofore hin
dered this section in its growth arr
soon to be removed and our transpor'
tation problems at least are in fail
way of being settled.
The Oregon legislature in it's briei
session has removed the only obstacle
that stood in the way of the immediate
construction of the Dalles-Celilo canal
by appropriating $1OO 900 to secure the
right of way.
The announcement was recently
made that the government engineers
had agreed upon plans which had been
accepted by the department and that
100000 was available to begin the
work as soon as the right ofway was
secured but no part of it could be used
to purchase the right-o
This was the problem which con-
fronted the people when the Oregon
legislature came to the front and gen.
erousfy made the appropriation which
win remove the only obstacle in the
way of immediate work on the con-
struction of the canal which open the
river from Lewiston to the sea.
BY a strange coincidence the same
days news brings word that truce
in the railroad controversy had re-
moved any obstacle that may have ex-
listed to the building Of the branch lines
Inn the Clearwater country that have
been exploited from time to time but
where actual construction had been
held up pending the settlement of more
wefghty matters.
The report from New York that the
Hartman and Hill interests had ar
rived at the basis of a lasting peace
and would work hand in hand for mu-
tual interests in the Pacific northwest |
opens the way for the immediate con-
struction of lines connecting the North
ern Pacific, Great Northern, and Union
Pacific roads lin Oregon, Idaho and
Washington.
Under this agreement the lewiston
Huntington and lewiston Riparia lines
can be built without opposition and no
doubt the joint. traffic agreement COW
ers the road from Lewiston to the
Columbia river as Welt as the roads
from Portland to Seattle.
This is important news for the in
terror and revives all anticipation that
railroad construction so long delayed
will be one of the important happenings
of the new year.

The Mesilla valley exponent of sci

the policy vi these merchants who
bug his cantalonpeg and sell them to
the public as the Rocky Ford product.
Not from a financial standpoint does
he Object. as the money is forthcom-
ing readily enough to the raiser, and
more money. too, than the Rocky Ford
man gets, but Mr.. Barker has the
pride Of pr0prietorship in what his
gardens produce, and furthermore he
thinks it is a decided shame that the
best c%antaloupe in the world should
be used 70 enhance the reputation Of

name for New Mexico.
The man from the Garden City
says the agricultural outlook In the
Mesilla valley was never brighter.
There is plenty Of water and fruit, al
