into great private holdings is going
on under our present laws at railroad
speed, but this plan to permit a man
to take up a square mile OF land is to
my mind little short of iniquitous. 1t
would condemn much of our finest
agricultural lands in the Northwest,
capable of growing crops and sup
porting families on small tracts. to
perpetual stock grazing. Nor would
it result I'm 640-acre ranches. This
square mile unit is too much land for
a man to farm and too little for him
to successfully raise stock upon. The
result would be that in one way or
another, the land would be concen-
trated into big holdings, very effect
lively preventing settlement. There is
a great future in agriculture for my
state and adjoining states, but such
a law as this would do much to shat
ter our hopes for the development of
real farming"
1t is admitted at the capitol that to
secure the enactment of a general law
allowing homestead entries of a
square mile would be impossible; but
it is expected to take up the question
state by state. one state having all
ready been granted the right. and to
secure the legislation piecemeal.

COMPLAINS OF ExrRAvAGANcE

II is estimated that the price of
this legislature will foot up about
$2.500.000. 1t would seem that it is
about time to call halt on this eX-
cessive abuse. The present legisla-
ture is the worst for the taxpayer in
the history of the state.
There has been made no definite
statement as to the large items of the
appropriation bill. though it is be-
lieved that the committee has about
made up its mind as to what the
amount will be, approximately. 1t is
estimated that the penitentiary will
receive at least 100000 for mainte-
nance; the asylum will be given $500,
000 for the same purpose, and $751;
$50 for betterment. 1t is more than
probable that $32,5O0 will be allowed
for transportation of insane and $15.-
600 for the transportation of convicts
For the maintenance of the reform
school the committee is said to be in
favor of donating $4,000, with an
additional $500 for new buildings
etc.
The school for the blind will prob
ably receive $4,000 for maintenance
and an additional $500 for better
ments.-Eugene Guard.

Already a large number of people
are looking forward to the beginning
of Lent or March s, as time when
they expect to be good. For 40 days
few will forego some of the simple

DR.. W. G. Cole, of Umatilla county,
has made an able and conscientious
fight for a broad, progressive, mod
ern irrigation law, and has only
failed in achieving the best results
for the state through the inactivity
of Eastern Oregon. However. he has
laid the foundations for a future law
that will surpass the one proposed at
this session. as such matters are
purely educational. Another legisla-
ture will perhaps rise above private
interests and pass a general law that
will place irrigation and water rights
on a broad, equitable basis as one of
the departments of great state, in
stead of making it the plaything of
ditch companies and private interests.
DR.. Cole went to the legislature with
the intention of securing such irri-
cation laws as would permit the gov
ernment to expend part of the $4,-
100000 contributed by the state of
oregon to the reclamation fund, with
in the state. Although partially de-
feated, he has been true to his trust
and is entitled to advancement in the
legislature, in order that his useful
ness may be fully enjoyed by the peo-
pie.

PENDLEToN's THREE MAsCoTs.

Three things" in the language of
A. D. Stillman, before the CONNER
cial association, "have advertised
Pendleton more widely and more ad-
vantageously than all other things
combined; Pendleton Indian robes,
the Moorhouse twins and the Women
of Woodcraft"
Three irresistible mascots of Pen
dleton's progress, are these.
If we can strengthen the hands of
any one of them, if we can send the
message of either of them farther
or give new impetus to their mission,
should we not do it?
Last winter it is said that Pendle-
toms Indian robes were sent as
Christmas presents into Sweden, Fin
land, Ireland and Germany. Could
any. more meritor'ous advertising
than this be imagined?
The Moorhouse twins and other
MooThouse pictures are known to be
on exhibit in art studios in Paris,
Berlin, Antwerp and London, besides
in thousands of homes in almost
every European country.
These tell the story of Pendleton
and fix the imprint of this faraway
Oregon town in the minds of people
who look forward to a home in this
boundless and inviting land of the
free!
Every week in the month and every
month in the year, messages, letters,
circulars and postals by the thous-
ands fly through the mail from the
offices of the Women of Woodcraft,
in this city, to the 1900 members
of the order, dispersed over the nine
west coast states.
Every fluttering message sent
forth, bearing the Pendleton imprint,
fixes upon the mind of some one the
memory and acquaintance of Pendle-
ton. %.
Every one makes a new friend for
the town. Every one causes the
name of Pendleton to be spoken by
another stranger and by and by, Pen
.dleton becomes a household word
among the best class of people in nine
of the best states in the Union.
Imagine, then, what it means to
concentrate all the offices of this
order here, and multiply the winged
messengers ten fold and scatter
broadcast mail sacks full of personal
messages about this city and its peo-
pie.
Let US strengthen the Pendleton
mascots and give them more tongues
with which to tell our story!

The price of drinks will be raised
in Oregon; more tarantula juice and
less spirits must be added to the
whiskey barrel; less booze must be
given away by the bartender who is
"good fellow" and where the
change comes out uneven the bar
must be given the advantage. All
this must be done because it cost
the liquor dealers $4,000 to fight
the local option law last June and
about $4,000 to fight it during the
recent session of the Legislature.
This is the alleged statement of their
own handy-andy, Al Crofton. who
managed" the campaign. Really,
doesn't it seem that there is some
thing wrong with an industry that is
thus forced to fight for its existence
in the community? There never has
been a time when the miller, the
shoemaker, the blacksmith, the tail
or, the merchant or the butcher was
forced to fight for existence. Their
wares are needed by mankind. Their
industries are safe in the hands of
the people. 1t is not necessary for
them to sleep with one eye open to
guard their interests

every law favoring any of these
great interests must be secured on a

egon prune growers don't need.

not need and there you are! Legis-
lators may be honest and able and
sincere, but if they are not good
traders. their labors are fruitless.

NEWS IN MISSOURI.

A Missouri newspaper has publish
ed the ten commandments by re-
quest This literary selection is a
new thing in Missouri, and there are
indications that it will have a great
run. 1t is already attracting the at
tention of some of the sensational
ministers in that state, and the dis
covery that the commandments are
not copyrighted will allow all the lit
tie weeklies to make a strong feature
of them. The best plan for Missouri
would seem to be to run the ten as a
serial and give the people about half
of one at a dose. They would never
be able to take the two tablets as
they We're delivered to Moses without
fatal results.-Cedar Rapids Gazette.

It is not strange that Oregon leg
islatures accomplish so little of
general good to the state, when one
views the widely differing needs of
Eastern and Western oregon. Two
sections separated by opposite climat-
&c conditions. opposite industrial pur-
suits, opposite natural advantages and
different resources, could scarcely
be harmonized with justice to both
interests. Human nature is the same,
east and west of the Cascade noun
tains. Legislators who have local
pride are ready to pass local meas
ures at almost any cost. 1t is natural.
No one expects anything else. Wes-
tern Oregon is busy with her sailor
boarding houses, her fish wheels, her
hop inspectors. Eastern Oregon has
her irrigation bitches, her range wars

AGAINST MILE SQUARE FARM.

The overthrow of the old home
stead law and the substitution of a
64O-acre homestead is being rapidly
consummated. so far as the change
rcan be pushed along by the public
lands committee of the house. That
body voted the other day to recon-
mend the passage of square-mile
homestead bill as applied to eight or
ten million acres of land in western
South Dakota, although a minority of
the committee, consisting of Chair
man Lacey and Representatives Mon
dell of Wyoming. Miller of Kansas,
and Needham of California WILL it is
understood, bring in a separate re-
port against the bill. The Committee
will take up succeeding bills applying
the square-mile homestead to other
states.
This report of the committee was
made In the face of strong adverse
recommendation from the commits
sioner of the general land office and
the secretary of the interior. The
commissioner pointed TO the fact that
similar bill was enacted last year
for western Nebraska lands "as an
experiment" and he stated that suf-
ficient time had not elapsed to war;

BILE to the Nebraska or Kinkaid law
Under the South Dakota bill the
government is given four months in
which to make a complete survey of
the state and withdraw any lands
suitable for irrigation. There is no
provision in the bill. however, by
which the government could withdraw
lands which it might find to be suit
able for agriculture without irriga-
ton.
Unless a strong sentiment is devel-
oped in opposition to this bill, it is
likely to quietly slip through congress
so slight is the interest manifested by
Eastern members in the question of
the development and administration
of the great agricultural domain of
the country. There seems to be a
disposition to let the public lands take
care of themselves, no matter what
amount of fraud and speculation in
them is shown to exist. to pass by the
problem and even as in this instance
to enact further laws allowing their
more rapid disposal.

quite evident: but that i! can lie defeat ed

TEACHERS AND STREET CLEANERS

Much has been said about the pay Of
school teachers in Vermont, but as a rule
II is assumed that structures in relation
to the small compensate ton received by
this class of educators apply principally
to the smaller towns. The people OF Bur-

learn that according to statistics fur

Educational association the minimum
wage of the teacher In our public schools
il less than that OF the street cleaner.
This committee. OF which Carroll d.
Wright is chairman. gathered its data
from three classified sources. from cities
OF more than 5000 inhabitants. from cities
and villages OF 5000 population and less.
and from rural districts. A table is given
comparing wages of teachers with those
OF municipal street laborers. employed
and paid by the municipality. and the re-
markable fact is developed that in only
four cities OF the country do the lowest
wages Of the elementary school teachers
equal the lowest wages OF the street
cleaners in the same city. These four
cities are Chicago. Washington. Columbus
Ca. and Meridian. Miss. In the last two
places the teachers are white and the Ia.
