WHAT THE FAIR SHOWS.

For the third time the gates Of the
district fair were swung open this
afternoon and a week of pleasant,
profitable entertainment is now in
store for the people of Umatilla and
Morrow counties.
In every particular the fair is bet
ter this year than ever before and the
management is to be congratulated
upon the success Of their work.
But the fair should be better than
in the past because the district has ad-
vanced. When the third district was
organized four years ago the Umatilla
Central had scarcely been thought of
and the east Umatilla reclamation
project was but a dream. The Una
tilla river and other streams of the
county were being used for fishing
purposes only and the idea Of an in
terurban electric line would have been
chimerical
Now all is changed. The Pilot Rock
country which was then only a stock
region, has been aroused from its
sleep by the whistle of the branch
line locomotive. and as a result Pilot
Rock now has a fruit exhibit that ri
walls that from Milton and Freewater
In the Echo country four years ago
the principal hope was in jack rab-
bit cannery The land of the west
end was worthless. But the breath Of
life has entered the arid section
through the irrigation bitches and the
desert is being converted into alfalfa
fields, orchards and vineyards.
These are but some Of the changes
that have taken place in this county
during the past few years and they
mark the beginning Of a new period
in the history Of the county-the era
Of development The fact that
transformation is now on may be
plainly seen at the district fair pavil-
ion. and to the East Oregonlan this is
the finest thing in connection with
the fair

But the wide, wide lands that stretch.
ed away
Before my eyes in the days of May;
The rolling prairie's blllowy swell,
Breezy uplands and timbered dell;
Stately mansion and hut forlorn-
All are hidden by walls of corn.
All the wide world is narrowed down
To walls of corn, now sere and brown
What do they hold-these walls OF
corn,
Whose banners toss in the breeze OF
morn.
No sent'nels guard these walls of corn
Never is sounded the warder's horn;
Yet the pillars are hung with gleam-
ing gold,
Left all unbarred, though thieves are
bold,
Clothes and food for the toiling poor;
Wealth to keep at the rich mans door
Meat for the healthy, and balm for
him
Who means and tosses in chamber
dim;
shoes for the barefoo.ed, pearls tc
twine
In tire scented tresses of ladies fine;
Things of use for the lowly cot.
Where (bless the cornD want cometh
not;
Luxuries rare for the mansion grand,
Gifts Of rich and fertile land.
All these things, and so many more,

In the olden days of the district

Point to this rich and bounteous land,
That yields such fruits to the toller's

"Treeless desert" they called 1t then,
Haunted by beasts and forsook by
men.
Little they knew what wealth untold
Lay hid where the desolate prairie
rolled.
Who would have dared, with brush
or pen,
As this land is now, to paint it then?
And how would the wise ones have
laughted in scorn,
Had prophet fortold these walls Of
corn,
Whose banners toss in the breeze of

sAGEBRUsH FOR ROADS.

Ranchers OF a practical turn OF
mind in the vicinity Of Pasco have
discovered a use for the generous
growth Of sagebrush in that vicinity
SAYS the Spokesman-Review. They
are using it to make roads of, and 1t
is proving of great benefit during the
season of wheat hauling.
Following a dry, hot summer the
reads were full of dust and the heavy,
grain-loaded wagons cut deep unto the
highways and made hauling difficult
The usual remedy, straw, was too
scarce to be wasted upon the roads.
Nc other road material appeared at
hand. until some bright farmer be-
thought himself of the despised sage
brush
The bushes are grubbed up, roots
and all. and thrown into the highway
and the road building is complete.
After that it is simply a question OF
time until the grain wagons grind the
sagebrush and dust into a firm
though springy mass, and the road
will stay in good condition during the
hauling season. Should a spot wear
thin, repairs are easy. 1t is simply a
case of pulling up a few bushes and
throwing them into the road.
How the sagebrush would work un-
der rainy conditions it is impossible
to say. as the fall has been as dry as
the summer. The success has been so
marked this fall. however, that it is
probable the use Of straw, in that sec
ton of the grain belt at least, is a
thing of the past.

THE MAN WHO DARES.

on page Iii of the current issue OF
The Fra you may find a most reson-
ant cadenza by Richard Wightman
which, as it may make you feel better
and cannot make you any worse off
we here reproduce with such APP
proval as may be 50 expressed.
TO snap the CHIP from o Tdte's
shoulder, nifty-like,
Just with your thumb ana long CEN
ter finger, so;
To dare the little devils, all of them,
to do their worst
And then sit by and watch them
break their bloomin' necks
A-doln' it, while down your own
flows the good, glad wine OF
victory;
To skip a silver dollar on the waves
as If it were a mere flat stone.
And see it sink at last to God knows
where
And care not only so longs you
skipped it;
TO see the other fellow pitch ker-
PUNK into the nice black mud
he's stirred up for you;
TO send a good loud haw-haw ring
ing down the nave
OF some old worship place, where
pale, punky piety
Sits shiyering upon a marble saint
To turn the blessed proverbs upside
down
And prove that only thus may they
they be lived by truly;
All this and more besides, may not
be just exactly
What I'd call my symphony, but all
the same it's an awful lot of
Real resounding satisfaction.

LEGITIMATE RACING.

At the Pacific national show held
in Portland last week was given an
other exemplification Of the fact that
races may be conducted successfully
without pool selling.
During the week tens Of thousands
of people gathered at the Country
club track and watched some of the
best harness races ever seen in the
W est. Respectable people of all
classes were there, but the tOuts and
bcokmakers who graced the old track
in former days were not to be seen.
The character of the crowd was i'm
proved 100 per cent.
Then the races were pulled off on
program time. The people in the
grand stand were not required to sit
for hours while the booksellers did
their work below. And there was lit
tie or no suspicion of jobbery where
as in former days the crowd never
expected to see a race won upon its
merits.
The American people love horses
and they love good racing. 1t is a
legitimate sport if conducted proper
ly. But the only way to make it real
sport is to cut out the pool selling ani
