TO STOP NATIONAL WASTE.

President Roosevelt has invited the
governors of the states and territories
to meet him at the White House May
1s. IA and Is to discuss the question
of means to conserve the natural re-
sources of the country. Invitations
are to be extended to the members
of both houses of congress and to the
inland waterways commission,
The presidents letter and his con-
yersation indicate that he believes
the American people must learn to
save and to cultivate intensely or
the very life of the nation willy ulti-
mately be threatened. The import
ance and manner in which the sub
iect is to be considered are indicated
in the presidents letter to the COVER
nors. which was made public at the
White House this week.
clifford Pinchot, chief of the United
States forestry division, one of Mr..
Roosevelts closest friends and advis-
ers. said recently that the two things
which will make President Roosevelt
remembered by future generations are
his trust and corporation regulation
campaign and his work in preserving
and having properly used the natural
resources Of the United States. Among
these resources, Mr.. Pinchot included
waterways, forests and lands.
Mr. Pinchot was asked whether the
Panama canal would not be Mr.. Roos-
evelt's greatest work. He replied;
THE Panama canal is only an in
sident in the great work of preserving
and making more productive our
natural resources-in fact l believe
this work will be remembered when
even the corrupt corporation move
ment has become hazy to the future
people of America.
millions of dollars worth OF ma
terial. good material, which should
go to supplying our people with food
shelter. clothing and luxuries. goes
to waste every year owing to the ex-
travagant MISUSE of Americas riches
in forests. waterways and soil. The
preservation and right use Of these
resources means more than a mere
added profit to present Industries; i
means the keeping alive Of the neces
series of national existence.
We may not see all the effects o
our extravaganza and blind negli
gence, but Wen see enough in tn
next few years, II we do not make
up. to show US the fate we are per
hitting to fall on the next genera
ton. It's the greatest question be

PENDLETON REJOICES.

Pendleton rejoices in the starting
of the woolen mill after temporary
suspension Of several months. This
is not only good news to Pendleton,
but to all Oregon and the northwest,
as It is an indication Of the far
reaching demand for more manufac-
turing establishments.
There is now a sharp demand for
the output Of the Pendleton wooden
mill. Indian blankets, robes, rugs and
other products.
Since the mill has been closed
pending repairs and improvements,
the old stock which was on the mar
ket at that time has been practically
exhausted and despite the efforts OF
other mills to substitute something
in place Of the Pendleton Indian robe,
made famous by the Pendleton mill

Portland lawyers have agreed to
prevent any wholesale filing Of at
tachment suits at the end OF the pres
ent holidays, as such might alarm
the public and make further holidays
necessary. It might be cruel to ask
the question, but It seems to be per-
tinent now: II the solid lawyers OF
the state can prevent wholesale liti-
CATION in times OF emergency, why not
unite to discourage 1t under ordinary
circumstances?

THE OREGON QUESTION"

Ever since the first white men
looked upon the beauteous and fas-
cinating landscape of Oregon, 'the
oregon question" has been a most
prominent issue in national affairs
It is a most entertaining study TO
follow the development OF the ore
gon sentiment from the very first.
From the first days of the 18th cen
tury Oregon has been prominently
before congress in one form or an
other.
The meeting of the rivers and har-
bors congress in Washington this
week and the strong pleas of the Or
egon delegates for the opening Of
the Columbia river recalls the long
series of petitions pleas and appeals
made to congress for the develop
ment of the state.
Back in 1910 a petition was sent
to congress by 81 citizens of Eliza
bethtown. KY, asking that the United
States found a colony in Oregon. In
the same year 40 citizens of Indiana
petitioned congress to found a colo
ny. take charge of oregon and build
a public highway from the Missis-
sippi to the new territory.
Thus the glamor Of Coxey's de-
mand for a national highway from
St. Louis to Portland is swept away in
a breath. Those pioneers of Indiana
had preceded him with similar de-
mand 60 years previous.
With all the publicity that has
been given oregon in various ways
a Grass ignorance about the state anC
its resources still exists in the east
Every day some eastern newspape
bobs up with a ludicrous statemen
about oregon or the Pacific coast
which even a small amount of gen
eral reading. it seems, should hav
prevented.
When Joe Teal of Portland, sprea
out 20 boxes of Spitzenberg apples
the most beautiful to be found in a
Oregon, in the convention hall of tn
rivers and harbors congress thI
week, at Washington, and while a
the delegates were in raptures owe
the display, a Massachusetts, delegat
was heard to say: They look yer!
very much like California product.
Then there was wise bobbing G
heads all about the Massachuset'
man, as though a state secret ha
been discovered.
Really it would pay oregon to pa
, the fare of every congressman ea'
of the Mississippi river to Portlan
and return just to give them an OF
iect lesson and set them right o
Oregon and her resources.

all efforts along this line have failed
and only the genuine has found
steady favor in the markets.
The employment OF from 80 to 40
people and the consumption of sew
eral million pounds OF wool, annually
in the mill, means much to Pendleton
and Umatilla county and there is just
cause for rejoicing.
Let us support the woolen mill well
and give it all the publicity possible
for It is one Of Pendleton's best ad-
yertisements.

Milwaukee, Wis, Oct 25.-The
telegraphers' convention ado pied a
resolution tonight asking the Order
Of Railway Telegraphers to call a
special meeting to vote on amalgama-
tion with the Commercial Teieg-
raphers International Union. This
throws the matter into the hands of
the railroad operators for approval
The convention discussed for sew
cral hours today how to finance the
strike and the policy to be pursued in
carving 1t on The concensus OF
opinion was that the money should
be raised as quickly as possible aad
that under no circumstances should
the strike be called off until some sort
Of a settlement is made with the
strike-bound companies.
The future of the organization was
said to depend upon the stand taken
or the proposition To end the strike
without an agreement with the COM
panies would mean, it was said, that
the organization would go to pieces.
Only the broker and the leased wire
operators, in that event, could be ex-
rected to remain loyal
The proposition to amalgamate with
the Order Of Railway Telegraphers
was for ght by many delegates. The
Chicago and New York delegates are
urging this issue, but number OF
those present from other cities are
opposing it. The opposition scored a
point in the morning session by tenn
porarily sidetracking the amalgama-
tion plan.
This was carried by one vote and
was said to forecast defeat for the
amalgamation plan.

New York, Oct. 25.--Another nerve
racking day has passed but the hnah'
cial institutions of New York nave
shown an extraordinary power OF re-
sistance to the pressure put upon
them. While it is true that several
minor institutions have been forced
to close their doors, yet two things
should be said about them; first
that the amount involved was not 50
great as to exert any marked infu'
ence on the general situation, as
these banks were located in resident
ial quarters and did not come into
touch with the larger financial ins'l
tutions Of he city: and second, there
is every reason to believe that these
banks aud trust companies are sol
vent. and their difficulties will prove
only temporary and due entirely to
the inability to secure ready cash on
gilt edge securities in their vaults.
The institutions which closed their
doors today with sums due deposi-
tors were:
The United States Exchange Bank,
Harlem. 100000.
international Trust Company, about
100000.
The Borough Bank Of Brooklyn, ST.
100000.
The Brooklyn Rank, s2,300,00o

panies had any important business

financial affairs.
On the other hand a number OF "a
yorable features marked the day The

which have suffered most from the
