PENDLETON MUST TRAVEL.

Because Pendleton is now the larg-
est town of this county it does not
follow that it will always have the
supremacy. It has some hustling lit
tie rivals and if the people of this
city want the town to hold its own
they will have to bestir themselves.
A few days ago this town was given
a Jolt in the form of news to the ef-
feet that the sheepmen of the county
are going to establish a securing mill
at Echo. The news came as a sur
prise. At first there were many local
people who refused to believe it. They
thought it was hot air"
Then came the realization that 1t
was no fake. but that while the peo-
rle here were not looking. Echo had
stolen march and captured the
prize.
This is the place where the sheep
mems securing mill should be locat-
ed. This is the central point; this Is
the railroad center and there is day
power here. But Echo was quicker
in getting off the mark and that town
won. All praise TO the Echoites. They
have the right spirit. They cannot
be blamed for wanting the new scOur-
ing mill for their town. The blame,
if there is any. rests upon this town
itself
But the game is not over. Other
things will be coming up in the fu-
ture. Pendleton will have opportuni-
ties to redeem itself if It will but do
50.
For one thing the people Of this
city should see to It at once that the
PendIeton wooden mill is pul into
operation again. For weeks this mat
ter has been hanging fire. Different
people have looked at the proposition
and they all say It is good one. But
nothing definite has yet been done
Il Is time to end this delay. Smash
the obstacles that have been block
ing the movement and get the mill
reopened. II one man will net take
the mill get someone else to take it,
II Pendleton intends to keep the
lead It must travel some.

are to be provided for; the water code
IS said to need revising; a new state

STOP THE DISGRACE.

Let it be hoped that at the coming
session of the legislature oregon will
commence upon settled policy to-
wards all the educational institutions
OF the state.
Seemingly there is now little doubt
that all three of the present normals
will be continued permanently and be
adequately provided for, They should
be- Oregon's normal school system
is good, just as it is provided suffi-
cient money is appropriated to meet
the needs of the institutions at Wes-
ton, Monmouth and Ashland.
Aside from the normal schools the
state must also assist in the mainten-
ance of the agricultural college and
o: the state university Both these
Institutions are highly worthy Of
strong support by the state Most of
the future young men of this state
