higher development and a vastly
greater scope of possibilities.
Some Land Values.
To the south of us are mountains
of timber, coal and minerals, which
need Increased facilities for trans
portation to open a new field of re-
sources and enterprise. We nave land
worth IS per acre at present used for
grazing purposes, which could be
cultivated and doubled in value, and
some of our $50 wheat land with ir-
rigation and careful farming, could
be set to alfalfa, fruit or other di-
versified farming and also be doubl-
ed in value.
To obtain the best economic re-
suits we need a reduction from our
present tremendous scale, which is
necessarily extravagant. Why. we
have men who own hundreds and
even thousands of acres, yet they
neither reap nor SOW. Their land is
titled by steam driven ploushs and
their crops are. harvested by a ma
chine unknown to you of the valley
or to the man from the east except
he be from the Dakotas-a machine
compounded of a thresher and a
reaper-drawn by 80 horses or more
likely steam engine. 1t is such a
harvester as this. that day after day,
the long summer through. moves on
and on, over thousands of acres leav-
ing in its trail the well filled sacks
to be gathered from the fields and
hauled to the nearest railroad ware
house. Few farmers live on their
land, for very probably they have no
stock, raise no gardens, cultivate no
corn, and own no hay, hut only the
enormous stores of wheat, wheat,
nothing but wheat on every hand,
while the farmer himself lives in
town to follow the more strenuous
avocations of medicine, law or poll
tics.
And it is even. so with the stock
man. The sheep king Of our county,
notwithstanding his 10000 head, and
as many thousands of acres of land,
lives in town with all the apparent
ease and comfort of a retired banker.
What the Traveller Sees.
But alas, the traveller, for the
whole breadth of our county, from
his railroad car window sees only the
rocky canyon of the winding Una
tilla and the sand banks of the Co.
lumbia. He sees the worst and not
the best we have to offer. Thus the
eastern man who comes to make his
home among US. looking for soil
black as he left behind, i'll conceals
his scorn and disgust as he rushes
past to invest-elsewhere And you
of the valley who have heard that
eastern Oregon is all alkali, and that
it will produce absolutely nothing,
why, you pity us who must live in
the awful sands of the desert.
Ladies and gentlemen. we do have
sand-enough sand, and enough rock
in our county to dam the willamette
river and the Columbia, and then
enough to bury the whole town of
Portland, and still have enough good
soil left within the limits of our coun-
ty to produce annually 100000
pounds of wool, and to raise one per
cent of all the wheat in the whole
United States.

Thirty years, and what a remarka-
BILE transformation, yet It is the iden-
uct1 story Of every part of the west.
Though interesting. and full of events,
and even remarkable, yet a contem-
plation of the past is Improbable,
and we rather choose to look to the
profitable future, which is equally in
teresting. remarkable, more remark
able and indeed most wonderful.
What a striking example of the
survival of the fittest in the struggle
for existence. Even as the white man
has supplanted the savage, so under
his careful supervision, the grass of
the hills has been supplanted by the
wheat, the thistle and the poplar tree
of the valleys has been supplanted by
the clover and the orchard. The heavy
draft horse or the high strung pa
Ger, now trods where once was seen
by thousands the Indians spotted cay
use, and the hills support thousands
of cattle and a quarter of million
of sheep.
To some of you who are my fell
low townsmen, a remuneration of
these facts may seem old or trite,
but to the man from east of the
Rockies, how vague are his ideas of
our methods OF livelihood. To you
whose knowledge of Oregon is limit
ed to Portland or to the west of the
Cascades, how much less than the
eastern man do you appreciate that
part of your. own state so rich with
inexhaustible resources.
Thousands of Inquiries.
Thousands from the east are seek
ing information relative to our
churches, schools, resources and bus
iness in general, and of the available
homestead land, dreaming of vast
lowlying expanses of black rich soil
like that of the valleys of the Platte
or Mississippi rivers, and then when
they see our land they understand it
not.
How different ii is and how disap-
pointed they are, and in their reports
to their eastern friends, how depre-
ciated are those resources. 1 have

Despite the Attack of Roberts
1t Went Through.
The Ballot Was Eight
to TWenty-one.
Act Will Now Go to the Senate
for Adoption.

From Tuesdays Daily.
The Minneopa state park bill passed
the Minnesota house this afternoon by
the handsome vote of rs to 81. Repre-
sentatives Gates, Lewis and Juliar
made speeches in its behalf. Representa-
tive Flower of ST. Paul talked in its
favor, delivering a very fine speech
which captured the legislators. Other
representatives spoke briefly for the
bill
Roberts of Hennepin made strenu-
Gus fight against the bill.
The bill will now go to the senate
where it will receive the support of
Senator Pugh of Duluth and others
Senator Eberhart will work in the in
terest of it's passage.
The Blue Earth county delegation in
the house deserves much credit for their
untiring efforts to secure the passage
Of this meritorious measure.
