ecSERNSEENT BY COMMISSION

Enid, one. of the prosperous, grow
ing young cities of Oklahoma and the
southwest, adopted commission gov
eminent by a vote of two to one Enid
is about the size of Coffeyville, Kans.,
which voted last week to adopt the
plan, and the progress made by these
two cities in the development of the
new rule will prove of great value to
numerous progressive cities of the
same class in Kansas and Oklahoma,
if, indeed, further proof is needed
anywhere to demonstrate its advan-
tages over the old system.
OF the towns in Kansas in that class
of municipalities. Hutchinson and indie
pendence are already operating under
the new rule and realizing satisfac-
tory results. Tulsa, in Oklahoma, is
at work under the commission plan
and in a recent contract for paved
streets. thirty thousand dollars for
thirty blocks of paving as compared
to former contracts, were saved by
the property owners by the new rule.
Tulsa's experience ought to be all
that is needed to convince the smaller
cities that the modern plan is as ad-
vantageous for them as for the great
er municipalities.
Enid is to be congratulated upon
its early determination to adopt a
form of government that will give it
the opportunity to grow rather than
continue a system that impedes de-
velopment because of its ineficiency
and lack of direct business methods
in the administration of civic affairs.

ARE ALIEN CITIZENS THE sEsTa

DR.. David Blaustein of Chicago
says that the foreign immigrant
makes better American than the
American himself He gives the fol-
lowing as his reasons for making the
statement:
The immigrant comes to this coun-
try from a land of despotism and op-
preston and finds America willing to
allow him to indulge a broad view,
freedom-in short, he lives new
life. He is the dreamer, the
idealist, and loves America by con-
trast He finds opportunity to develop
and adopt the American customs, ira
ditions and spirit with an earnestness
that is absolutely wanting in the
American native, who looks upon
these privileges as his natural right.
America gives the immigrant all
he dreams of in his peasant abode in
Europe. He is willing as a result to
stand by America, and this makes ev-
cry shipload of immigrants that ar
rives in New York a band of Pilgrim
Fathers without whom the entire po-
litical scheme of the United States
would fall away in ten years. 1t is
this foreign element also that will
bring us the art, music and literature
of the old world and supply that GEN.
tury-reverenced touch to this compar-
atively infant America.
Another point in which the immi-
grant to America-virtually the only
country that has immigrants-has
proved himself wonderful force is in
the Americanization of Europe. 1t
might be said that he conducts a
great correspondence school of Amer.
icanism. Millions of letters go year.
ly from this country TO Europe. In
them the enthusiastic immigrant has
written of the new country, its ways
its habits and its joys. On the other
side these letters are studied and the
ideas Of living adopted.
"As an instance of this, after ten
years absence, 1 revisited Germany
and in some of the old towns, which
people seldom leave, l found condi
tons exactly as l had left them. But
on the eastern frontier of Russia
where thousands leave yearly, 1 found
American ideas put in practice.
at is his love of freedom that
makes the immigrant a good citizen

agitation over the Rudovitz case, and
it is the immigrant who is found at
the head of the great enterprises

when she adopts him, and the immi.

WANTS TALIAFERRo REELECTED

The United States senate is a body
in which more can be accomplished
by tact and diplomacy than by cap
uvating oratory or political beligo,-
.ence. Senator Tillman and his imita-
tors have won nationa renown by
their oratoricai knight-errancy, but it
is doubtful if they have gained by it
anything of great value to the states
which they represent. Senator Talic-
ferro, howeve.', bY has Quiet and Dido
matte methoCs aided by similar con-
duct on the part of the other members
of the Florida delegation, has succeed
ed in obtaining from the republican
majority larger and more valuable
benefits for this state than have been
conferred upon any other state of the
south Eleven years of successful ex-
.perience have but added to his knowl-
edge and efficiency. For these rea-
sons the Herald hopes to see him re-
turned to the senate for a third term.

HOOD RIVERS EXAMPLE
The BIG Apple Crop Is Sought With
out ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Solely
On its Reputation

On tIs Heputdbiou
Methods tell. The recent sale of
the Hood River fruit crop is the proof.
The price is the best on record. The
whole crop, even the culls, were taken.
The apples are still unpicked, and
one Of the buyers did not take the
trouble to examine them. He said he
knew exactly what they would be
when delivered.
II is something to get for a product
the best price earth affords. 1t is
something to sell that product on its
reputation in the market. 1t is some
thing TO have the buyer say he does
not care to examine his purchase. 1t
is not only something, but an extra
ordinary something for all this to
have happened.
The incident is not an accident. 1t
is not the result OF chance. 1t is not
the mere fact of Hood River soil and
climate. These are factors, but they
are only a part If the Hood River
apple depended for its world reputa-
ton on these, nobody would ever have
heard of it. Other lands and other
climates are of almost the same class,
but their apples are unsought and
unsung.
The Hood River sale is intelligence.
Il is the product of brains and hands.
Hood River men hitehed their apple
wagon to a star. They planned to
produce the best They compared
methods and studied processes. They
threw old systems into the scrap bin
of ages. They gathered literature and
poured over it. They dreamed of a
perfect apple, and set about to attain
il. They learned how to work the
land. They worked out the problem
Of thinning the young apples on the
trees to the end that each should
have air, nourishment and room not
only TO grow to the proper size, but
TO take on perfect form. They de-
veloped packing into a fine art. They
reduced to the fnality of perfection,
and every man in the business har-
monized himself with the common
purpose.
The product was success. BY the
plan the little valley smote the world
and made it bow obeisance. 1t evolv-
ed a luxury that the rich are deter
mined to have, and are ready to pay
the price. That price is fixed this
year at larger figures than ever be-
fore. 1t is the reward of the apple
men. and was earned. 1t is the fruit
of intelligent method laid upon the
soil with purposeful design. 1t is a
process that will heighten profits in
every line of husbandry, and that,
with the growth of intelligence will
be more and more applied. 1t is
worth while on every farm to look and
learn from Hood River.-Portland
