the Columbia river in Douglas, Lin
coin, Adams and Franklin counties
This great project when completed
will convert the greater part of the
area of the state into the most fertile
lands in the world and, of course, add
greatly to the wealth of the state and
lands, now almost wholly unproduc-
tive, of no value except for grazing
purposes, and not very valuable for
that, will be equal to these now under
irrigation in the Yakima valley. There
are none better in the world than
these. If they should grow nothing
but wheat they would probably pro-
duce a crop worth from SIP to 500 per
acre per year. But these irrigated
lands are too valuable for wheat
growing They are susceptible Of the
highest cultivation and abundantly re-
ward all the labor that can be expend-
ed on them. 1t will, no doubt require
several years to complete this vast
improvement. but once the work is be-
gun there will be no doubt about it's
successful conclusion. The govern
ment will not fail in the undertaking,
nor will it fail to prosecute the work,
once it is begun, with energy and good
judgment. The lands will be ready
for settlement as rapidly as settlers
demand them. At present the import
ant thing to the people who are now
here is to get the work begun. 1t
seems probable that a beginning will
be made soon. All obstacles in the
way Of its beginning, if there are any,
should be promptly removed.

HONEYFUGLING THE FARMERS

The Oregonian, which for the last
two years has been picturing Gov
ernor Mcbride as a man Of small
calber, a charlatan and demagogue,
commencing the governors manly
stand in accepting defeat gracefully
and promising his support for the
state ticket The Oregonian then en-
deavors to console the followers Of
Mcbride in eastern Washington by
telling them that they were deluded
about the merits Of a railway COM
mission and reciting in proof the fail
ure of the Oregon commission.
It has been repeatedly pointed out
that the Oregon railway commission
vas one of the advisory" kind, a
Door, weak, spineless thing with the
power to recommend but no power to
enforce changes in freight schedules.
The failure Of such a commission
does not prove that an appOintiVe
railway commission ClOtneQ Win
plenary powers would not prove eff
fective in the state of Washington.
1t is the evident purpose Of the Ore
gonian to honeyfugle the disaffected
republicans of eastern Washington
into the support of Boss Farrell's rail-
road ticket and platform, but unless
all signs fail it's efforts will be futile.
The issue now before the people is
whether the corporations or the people
shall rule this state and on such a
question party lines will be disregard
ed.
If the democrats do their duty and
nominate the right sort of candidate
for governor on a strong commission
platform, every county in eastern
Washington will go democratic by
majorities SO large that a possible re-
publican majority west of the Cas-
eades will be completely overcome.

stance such as a dwelling house in or
adjacent to the alleyway in our city
A dingy old clubhouse next the other
side Of street or alley and put espec-
tally on the inside of such clubhouse a
white and CLAIM washing with lime
and open a door or of such place. See
the neatness displayed. 1t really gives
out feeling of pleasure to the be-
holder stronger than words as to the
character of the people living there.
l have a private stable of this kind on
my place. For the respect I have for
my neighbOr across the way l Whiten
it thoroughly inside by simply putting
cOlu water Oh the lime IN q bucket,
letting it slacken which will be in a
few moments. Then take an old stub
of a common broom, brush it on and
you will be surprised at the change
in the healthfulness Of your home.
For strangers who are sojourning
with us how suggestive is the appear
ance Of our homes to them it gives
even a favorable idea Of our citizens

maries eliminates him from the race.
However. there are others of the same
ilk in Seattle and Tacoma who aspire
to the governorship and they may be
able to muster considerable strength
on the west side, where the commits
sion sentiment is not very strong.

Washington and he should be an UNI

man in the state, and his masterful
presentation Of the monopoly ridden
condition Of the republican party
and the commonwealth would set the
voters afre and cause reform to
sweep over the state like a whirl-

AS Senator McCroskey himself has
been prominently mentioned as the
democratic nominee this statement
proves that he is a democrat of the
highest type, who places the welfare
of the state above personal aggran-
dizement. If Turner cannot be pre-
vailed upon to accept the democratic
nomination for governor, the demo-
Gratis could not do better than to name
McCroskey, who was one Of the origi-
nal advocates Of railroad regulation in
this state.
