FOR A STATE RESERVE.

If a state forest reserve is estab-
llshed in Oregon, as is now planned
by the state forestry association, Una
tilla county will be vitally interested
in the movement, since she has one
of the largest compact bodies of fine
timber now remaining in eastern Ore
gon.
If the state decides to locate two
large reserves, one in the Cascades
and one in the Blue mountains, Uma-
tilla county would be in line to secure
the eastern oregon reserve. Such an
honor would be worth going out after.
1t is the plan of the state forestry
association to secure from the gov
ernment a compact body Of govern
ment land in the mountain ranges
and to exchange state and school
lands elsewhere for this timber land,
which may be set aside in a perpet-
ual state reserve.
The state would then cultivate,
beautify improve and in every way
make more valuable the vast reserve
with a view to preserving not only
the timber values, but also the natural
beauty and grandeur Of her forests,
for future generations. Roads and
trails would be built in the reserve,
young trees will be cultivated, forest
tree nurseries will be maintained and
every effort would be made on part
of the state to perpetuate the pristine
worth and beauty Of it's forests in this
reserve.
1t is hoped that this splendid plan
is carried out. oregon should per-
petuate portion of her magnificent
forests. She once possessed the
greatest timber values of any Of the
states, but slowly this resource is be-
ing depleted. Let us do something to
replenish the supply to keep for the
future something Of the splendid en-
dowment which this generation has
enjoyed.

able land and loss and deterioration
Of the soil forces which result from
summer following.
II the o. r. & n. company and
the farming experts could induce
Umatilla county farmers to crop their
land with something every year, thus
Increasing the yield by 100 per cent
no greater accomplishment could be
written down to the credit of the
railroad.
If by furnishing the farmers with
practical theories for multiplying
their products the company could add
to the wealth Of Umatilla county, in
crease its own traffic and bring into
cultivation a large amount Of waste
land in the county, what greater serv-
ice could it perform?

MANS RIGHT TO VOTE.

The San Francisco Star review:
mans boasted right" to vote, in the
light of it's being superior to the right
of woman, in the following graphic
manner. The Star says
The assertion that suffrage is a
natural right is said by Golfers Week
ly to be a worthless argument" "
Some of our California contemporaries
say that woman will get the ballot
when the majority of women want it.
That seems to be the opinion of Col
lier's.
How are we to know when the ma
jority of women want the ballot? 1t
is not proposed to permit women to
vote on the question, and thus decide
it. The fact is, women will get the
ballot when men decide that she may
have it.
What right have men to decide the
matter? If voting is a privilege, who
gave the privilege to the men? Some
other men? What right had they to
grant such a privilege? If some. but
not all, members of organized society
have the right to take part in gov
ernment, where did the some get the
right?
Is it a privilege or a right to live in
organized society? If a privilege,
who may grant it? If right, who
may deny it?
We are told that "as the ballot is n
responsibility and a duty, it should not
be thrust on all by the clamor of a
few" But who have the right to say
that sex alone shall determine the
matter of responsibility, and that GER
tain civil duties shall be placed on
males only? If men had the right to
confer suffrage upon themselves, have
not women the same right?
Perhaps in regard to the matter OF
privilege. some of our friends are as
much befogged as President Roosevelt
when he speaks of the privilege" Of
holding property. That is a depar-
ture from the right to hold property.
which is acknowledged by our consti-
tutions.

MCOURTS OZARK PAST"

The Lewiston Tribune says of the
appointment as United States district
attorney for Oregon:
One John McCourt Of Pendeton
has been selected for appointment as
United States attorney for Oregon,
and meanwhile a diligent search into
his record and antecedents is being
made. Heretofore the man seems to
have had a first rate standing and no
one has questioned his integrity, but
the fact that the Oregon delegation
has agreed upon him for that partic-
ular office is in itself so suspicious
and SO sinister that it is feared he
must have dark past somewhere.
But If that should prove to not be the
case, the chances now are all that he
soon will have.

THE NEW INTRUDER"

When 7. 7. Geer is away from home
campaigning for the congressional
nomination, his hired man who edits
the Pendleton Tribune tells some plain
truths which are not always compli-
mentary to Mr.. Geer.
In the Sunday Tribune the hired
man says, editorially:
THE one duty of Umatilla county
republicans is to stand together dur
ing the approaching campaign, re-
gardless of a new intruder whose sole
purpose is to SOW seeds Of discord
where harmony was wont to hold full
sway"
OF course this new intruder" in
Umatilla county must be T. 7. Geer, a
western Oregon man who has tried
for almost every office in the western
part of the state and now comes over
to Umatilla county to establish a tenn
porary residence and run for con-
gress.
This action on part of Mr. Geer has
surely "sown seeds of discord where
harmony was wont to prevail" since
republicans of eastern Oregon bitterly
resent Mr.. Geer's persistent office
seeking, especially in the second dis
trict upon which he has no claims as
a bona fide resident.
Before Mr.. Geer came into Umatilla
county to run for congress in place
of Congressman w. R. Ellis the pres
ent incumbent and logical candidate
for reelection from the eastern Ore
gon district, harmony was wont to
prevail" but Mr.. Geer has sown
seeds of discord' and will divide the
party in this district beyond any hope
OF reunion.
Well may his own paper term him
a new intruder" in the ranks of har-
monious republicanism in eastern Or
egon. Congressman Ellis is entitled
to the congressional nomination again
by all the rules of political ethics, and
being the most capable man in the
field, should be sent back by the peo-
pie to represent them again, in spite
of the disorganlzing efforts OF Mr..
Geer, the new intruder"

MY NEIGHBOR.

Somehow she keeps her little groove
With starlike lamps of love replete
And snow-white blossoms lift and
move
About the passing of her feet.
Bright glints of laughter, wreaths OF
song,
Make all her tasks a rainbow band;
However dark the day or long,
1t passeth crowned from her hand.
All, Myriad unseen wings enfold
The homely bow'r wherein she
stirs,
And all my hours are edged with
gold
That catch the passing light Of
hers.

THE o. II. & y. AS A FARMER.

The eminently successful trip Of the
o. r. & n. anti-summer fallow train
which was recently run through the
wheat districts of eastern Washington,
shows conclusively that the o. R. & ~
has advanced ideas on farming and
IS willing to go to enormous expense
to give others the benefit of these
ideas.
The train which bore agricultural
experts with scientific paraphernalia
and apparatus for demonstrating prac-
tical farming methods and other
equipment, was a center Of attraction
throughout eastern Washington.
Farmers flocKed to the train to hear
the experts lecture and to investigate
the methods which they proposed to
eliminate summer following in the
wheat belt And 50 well pleased were
Palouse farmers with the result Of
the train that they have requested
that It be run again later in the sum-
mer.
It seems useless to summer fallow
half Of the rich wheat lands Of UNA
tilla county every year. 1t seems
that certainly modern farming meth
DDS offer some relief for this waste
OF labor, loss Of the use Of the valu-

ONE ACRE HOLDS 1853 SOULS.

Fourteen hundred and flfty-elght
people living on an acre of land on
Manhattan island! That seems almost
incredible, but It is true, says a New
York letter. In the square bounded
by Rutgers, jefferson, Cherry and
Monroe streets on lower Manhattan
island that is the percentage of hu-
man congestion.
Moreover, there are today on Man
haitian island between 75 and 100
blocks where the density of popula-
tion is more than 1000 to the acre.
And sociologlsts, figuring along the
lines suggested by these statistics, are
predicting an eastern metropolis of
2OO,0OO,OO0 souls in the near future.
These figures are not put forth in
a mere academic discussion of con-
gestion Of population. They indicate
what one may see demonstrated by a
visit to the exhibit OF congestion of
population in New York beginning
next Monday at the museum of nat
ural history, which continues to March
22. The exhibition will be open from
10 a. m. to 10 p. m. on week days,
and on Sundays from p. m. to 10
p. m.
There was a press view OF the ex-
hibit yesterday afternoon. 1t is not
yet complete, but it is sufficiently far
advanced to show what its projectors
propose to demonstrate. There Is a
chart illustrating the congestion Of
school children on the east side. In
the English assembly district 1920
children Of school age inhabit an area
Of 9S acres, and there are 11'schools
to supply them.
A model tenement built and main
tained under the new law is shown.
There are also charts. diagrams and
models illustrating the great growth
of population in the Borough Of the
Bronx.

SOME MEN.

Some men spend most of their lives
making the rest miserable.
Some men are so little that they
cannot see the greatness of trifles.
Some men will waste four dollars
worth of time trying to save 25 cents.
Some men think they see every
thing. They are the ones who in
variably "go It blind"
Some men are so dishonest that they
suspect every honest man of playing
a game too deep for them to get on
to.
Some men are only a little removed
from their monkey ancestors-they
are always busy, yet never accom-
plish anything.
Some men, who readily admit that
a straight line is the shortest distance
between two mathematical points,
cannot see that exactly the same prin-
ciples apply in morals.
Some men manage to succeed in
spite Of their most earnest endeavors.

AUSTRIA'S "ICE STICKS. "

In Austria "lce sticks" are manu-
factured at a profit. A series of poles
is arranged so that the water will fall
slowly over each one in a series. OF
course, the water in the winter time
freezes, forming large icicles. When
the icicles have attained the proper
size the employees of the "ice plant
come around with carts, break off the
great sticks Of ice and haul them away
to place where they are put in
storage. OF course, 1t is much easier
to handle a large quantity Of ice in
tbs way than it is to cut 1t from
some stream and then pack it away.
There may however, be a difference
in quality between stick ice and lake
or river ice.
