There are about dozen respectable
saloons in PendIeton, in which minors
are not allowed, in which gambling
is not permitted and from which not
drop of whiskey goes to an Indian.
These places are run on a decent plan
and cause a minimum of trouble in
the community, while on the other
hand 80 per cent of the disorder and
crime in the city originates in, and
from the influence of, about dozen
joints.
If the business men are Interested

trade, they will protest to the city
council against the issuance of license
TO a certain class of saloons in this
city. They will take some interest
in the moral surroundings of the

still clings to the wornout belief that

The activity of Pendleton in form
ing an agricultural fair association
right at this time will be an incentive
to the legislature to create the third
Eastern Oregon District Agricultural
association in Umatilla and Morrow
counties, a bill for which has been
introduced by Senator Smith. Una
tilla county is entitled to state aid in
this matter, and her citizens are now
making every effort to organize such
an association. With aid from the
legislature the citizens will be en-
couraged and one of the most success
full associations of the kind In the state
can be built up here. Other Eastern
Oregon counties have received aid
from the state, and have been en-
abled by this means to add to the
efficiency and interest of their sOci-
eties. Umatilla and Morrow counties
need such society. They are
horse and agricultural counties par
excellence, and with a "boost" from
the state, to place the infant society
on its feet, the future results will
more than justify the appropriation
asked for in the bill.

Opposition to a new irrigation code
in Oregon is found to be centered in
the selfishness of present private
owners, whose large holdings may be
jeopardzed by a wider distribution of
the waters of the state. Idaho eXper-
fenced the same opposition in the
passage of her present irrigation law,
Utah faced the same selfishness, Cal
ifornia is now fighting the same prop
osition, and Washington is in the
power of the private monopolies. The
jumping off place" must be reached
somewhere in the reorganization of
the irrigation laws of the West. Irri-
CATION being the most vital industrial
subject in the West, must be systema-
tized. founded on the principle of the
greatest good to the greatest number,
and utility must be the basis of all
laws, instead of selfishness, however
well founded it may be in ancient
custom and unwritten law. After the
first upheaval of the change in pass
ing from the old to the new system,
the new irrigation law will be bless
ing to the state, because it provides
for the widest possible use of the
streams. At present there is idle
water in every private ditch, and idle
land and idle families because thereof
on every hand.

The same afternoon another woman-she

pink under ribbons, and a white piquet
fiared above French heels-stopped at the
triangle back of the Sherman statue, where
two gardeners were roofing up the exotic
foliage, which mas given a tropical pic

There was nothing timorous about that
young woman.
