ROUND UP THE PARENTS.

Chief of Police Gurdane would be
justified in rounding up" few
dozen parents of bad boys in Pendle-
ton as we'll as the boys. Where small
boys, ranging in age from to 10,
use vile language and commit acts of
rowdyism and misconduct, it is safe
TO say that nine out of 10 parents
learn of it and are familiar with the
facts.
That the same boys perform the
same acts of misconduct day after
day, all through the vacation period
and then on Saturdays and Sundays
during the school year, is evidence
that these boys are not properly cor
rected at home.
Where the same boy is guilty of
misconduct twice, it should be the
duty of the police officers to round
up the parents with the boys on the
second offense and see why the boy
is allowed to be a nuisance.
One rounding up of parents is often
better for the boy than a dozen
rounding ups for the boy.

THE EX-PRESIDENTS.

The coming of James r. Garfield,
secretary of the interior, to Portland
next week, is a reminder that of the
long line of ex-presidents of the
United States, Grover Cleveland is
alone alive today.
And it is a further reminder that
in this commercial age of dollar wor-
ship, the people have but little time
for hero worship or veneration for
the things which were once sacred to
the American.
In the early days of the republic
when Jefferson, Madison, the Adamses
and other Of the presidents and ex-
presidents lived, after having served
the people, they were regarded with
absolute veneration. The people de-
lighted to do them honor and show
them respect.
But in this later day when politics
perform such strange freaks in plac-
ing men in office and when men in
office perform such strange freaks
through politics, the people lose their
veneration for public men. Half of
the presidents of the United States
have been the choice Of political eau
cuses and not the choice Of the people,
and therefore the people are little in
terested in them or their descendants.

"THE ECHO COUNTRY

The first alfalfa cut in Umatilla
county every year, is cut down in
the Echo country; the first grain to
ripen in the county is down in the
Echo country; the first gardens to
mature, the first berries to ripen, the
fattest beeves, the whitest fleeces-
are all found down in that wonderful
Echo country" which includes a
large section from Nolin west and
which comprises perhaps a larger va
riety of resources than any other sec
ton of its extent in the west.
1t has been with keen delight that
the East Oregonian has watched the
slow but certain development of the
resources of "the Echo country"
which includes Butter creek in a gen.
eral way.
Only few years ago that entire
section, excepting a few farms along
the creeks and river, was one unbrok-
en- sagebrush waste. The rabbit trails
were the only signs of life in much of
it.
But gradually the shoulders of the
settlement were pushed out into the
sagebrush. The verdant green of the
alfalfa formed a luxuriant setting for
the forbidding sagebrush plain. Peach
trees blossomed where once towering
sagebrush trees as large as the laden
peach trees, formed the only growth
on the soil.
Water, that miracle of nature, rev.
olutionized the country. After the
warm sandy soil was once thoroughly
soaked, the vegetation sprang up
luxuriantly everywhere. On Butter
creek where irrigation has been prac-
ticed for years, immense fresh water
springs have burst out, furnishing
plenty of water for stock and house
hold purposes on many of the farms.
The altitude is low, the climate is
mild and the soil is a perfect store
house of force and vitality. No other
miracle on earth equals the miracle
of the reclaimed desert.
And what has been done in the
Echo country can be done in other
like portions of Umatilla county.
There Is living illustration Of what
work and water and intelligence will
accomplish. This is the only answer
necessary for the kicker who doubts
the virtue of trying to irrigate the
desert Just point to "the Echo coun-
try" That is sufficient witness.

"yILEsT DEN" IN NEW YORK.

Police Commissioner Bingham OF
New York, is nothing If not energeuc
and original in his effort to improve
the police service of Gotham. week
or two ago he issued to the public
neat little pamphlet entitled blue
Book for Citizens rule three OF
which reads as follows: I'm case OF
complaint, write directly to the ponce
commissioner and mark the envelope
Personal
one warm day last week, when
the 1O-cent fare to Coney Island was
proving a distracting problem, the fol-
lowing communication reached head
quarters from "a citizen" who evil
IDENTIFY takes his advice literally: Il
beg to inform you that the vilest den
in New York is run at 434 West 37th
street. Disorderly persons OF both
sexes resort to it at all hours of the
day and night. This infamous den
should be broken up"
Instantly there was excitement at
headquarters and visions of another
shake-up. Forthwith the commune
cation was dispatched to Captain
signed the task of holding down the
lid Of the tenderloin during the dull
summer season, with the information
that II Captain OBrien had not
enough men to close up this resort,
the commissioner would furnish all
that were needed.
BY return messenger came the fol-
lowing report from Captain O'Brien:
1.-The building, 434 West 37th street,
l most respectfully report, is the po-
lice station house of which am COM
mander. Respectfully, Stephen
O'Brien."
The citizen who had the courage to
perpetrate so mean a joke on the
commissioner has not yet been dis
covered, but in the tenderloin sta
ton at least he is regarded as worthy

tomorrow in the American plan. If
a lumber house will answer temporary
purposes, that is sufficient
suppose the farmers owning the
rich land of Umatilla county should
build concrete or stone houses on
their land and begin to look to the
future when their grandchildren and
great grandchildren will occupy this
land. This would give the observer
faith in the future of this country.
Il would then seem country of
homes, surely.
suppose every man owning a tract
of land in Umatilla county instead of
building a temporary lumber struc-
ture, should build a stone house laid
with concrete mortar. In hundreds
of years from now that house, covered
with vines, yet staunch and strong
would be standing as monument to
that farmers wisdom and foresight.
How different is the situation in
Umatilla county now. Drive through
the north part of the county and see
how many tumbled down farm houses
you can count. Only 25 years ago
families occupied these houses and
they answered for homes. And yet
in less than one short generation they
have fallen into decay and in many
instances have been wholly obliter-
ated. Even the wells at many of the
former sites of homes have been filled
up and nothing remains to tell where
the home stood.
We must have some other building
material for permanent use, beside
lumber. When the people come to
their senses lumber will be a drug on
the market and forests will go beg
ging.

NEW BUILDING MATERIAL.

Strange how the American people
have slaughtered their splendid for
ests to secure building material, when
lumber is the shortest lived, the most
infiammable, the most expensive, Of
all building materials!
How many years will a lumber
house stand, under the most favor
able conditions? Fifteen, 20, perhaps
rs years, owing altogether to climate.
What are 25 years compared to the
lfe Of the land upon which the house
stanls? How many lumber houses
must be built in the course of few
Centuries. where farms are occupied
by the same families as in England
and France. for centuries?
Tho American people build homes
ike they do everything else--just for
today. There is little preparation for
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1907-07-10

Pendleton is better prepared for the
hot weather this year than ever be-
fore. Her housewives have gas, the
coolest and yet the hottest fuel
known, and It is not necessary to stand
over hot range all day or half day
in order to get a meal. With the gas
range in the house there is no heated
kitchen, no smoke, no SCOT. 1t Is a
clean, convenient and perfect fuel and
after one summers experience It IL
safe to say that it will be extended to
large proportion of the homes OF
Pendleton.

CANARIEs FROM GERMANY.

Germany carries on a large trade
in the export of canaries. Every year
she sends no fewer than 10000 OF
these birds to America, 5000 to Eng
land and about 1000 to Russia. The
great nursery for the breeding Of
canaries is the Harz mountains. Many
of the peasants are engaged in the
work Of rearing the birds and receive
wages Of from $50 to s125 a year for
their trouble-an important addition
to their earnings.

There will be room for rest room
and library in the city hall building,
perhaps. Pendleton has done with
out city hall so long that she will
be at loss to fill up all the rooms
for the first two or three years, any
way. II each member of the city
council and each separate city official
is given a private office in the new
building there will still be room to
spare.
