ENGLAND'S CRISIS.

To Americans it seems strange the
English people did not abolish the
house Of lords. years ago. How he
redltary government can prevail at
this late day in an enlightened nation
like England is inconceivable.
For years the degenerate peers have
stood across the path Of Great Brit
aims progress. The commons, truly
representative Of the English people,
have passed measure after measure
for the public veal. only to find them
blocked by the bigoted, selfish upper
house
Today England is facing crisis
that IL regarded as the most serious
that has risen in a century. The gov
ernment is desperate over the cOndi-
ton Of its exchequer. In order to
help meet the heavy debts caused by
the army and the navy the house Of
commons favors a license bill that
would add 32O.OOO.OOO annually to the
revenues.
But over 100 members Of the house
OF lords own breweries and they op-
pose the measure as they oppose all
ether measures for bettering the con-
,ditlon Of the common people.
Now the liberals threaten that IL
the house Of lords does not come TO
terms there will be no appropriations
for the army. navy or the civil service.
Furthermore they demand that the
English constitution be changed so as

NIOSSBACkISM.

Though Portland has been making
wonderful growth during the past
few years, there is still strong
"mossback" element in that city.
Strange to say, certain of the press
down there seem to be in the back
ward class.
The Oregonian has just estimated
the city's population at 100000, when
business men and prominent citizens
in general are confident that there
are now 100000 people in Portland.
In the Sunday Journal Of January 3
facts are given that seem 70 fully bear
out the statement that the city has
fifth of a million.
Why the Oregonian prefers to take
a pessimistic view of Portlands
growth is difficult to understand
Perhaps its attitude is inspired by
the same influence that has caused
the Evening Telegram to throw sar-
castle stones at the work of the
Portland Commercial club and the
other organizations that are working
for the advancement of the city.

WELCOME, HEAD CONSUL.

This evening the Pendleton Wood
men will be honored by visit from
the head consul and other prominent
officers of the Pacific jurisdiction.
The local members of the order and
the people of Pendleton in general,
always appreciate the presence OF
men who are leaders in fraternal work
or in any other line of worthy endeav-
or. Since Pendleton camp, W. o. w
now has a building of its own, it is in
better condition than ever to welcome
the head officers. May Head Consul
Boak and his party feel at home to-
night

SHOVE IT ALONG.

A growing town is like a SNOWFALL
rolling down hill. At the start the
SNOWFALL increases in size very slowly
but with each revolution it gets larger
and its velocity increases accordingly
1t is much the same with city.
Every industry that is added to a
place brings something else with it.
The more resources a city has the
easier it is to get new ones.
At this time Pendleton is getting
ready for a new period of industrial
activity. Tomorrow evening business
men and property owners will meet
for the purpose of raising the local
money that is needed in financing the
new woolen mill.
If the wooden mill can be started
again, as now seems certain. it will
be easier for Pendleton to accom-
plish other things now in mind. With
the wooden mill in successful opera
ton it will be easier to start thresh-
er factory and a breakfast food fac
tory.
Then with these new industries and
the increased growth that will come
with them, it will be easier to get an
electric line and a mountain water
system. A gravity water system in
turn would aid in getting other insti-
tutions, for instance, the branch asy-
lum.
A town cannot be built up in one
particular without being benefited in
other respects also. A successful
blanket-making plant will mean
greater local mercantile business and
more demand for houses. For this
reason the wooden mill bonds offer a
good investment for property owners
for business men and for others who
have the interest Of Pendleton al
heart.
Get out tomorrow and give the
SNOWFALL a shove.

GOOD FOR WHOM?

Testifying in behalf of his friend,
Judge Root, NJ. J. Gordon admitted
he had written a supreme court de-
cision for Root, but claimed in justi-
fication that the decision is good
law" But there are always two sides
TO a law suit. For which side of the
case was the decision "good?" Since
Gordon has been attorney for the
Great Northern it is only a fair as
that the decision was good
from a railroad standpoint.
Then it is a pitiable spectacle in
deed, when a judge of a state su-
preme court must take his decisions
ready-made from corporation coun-
sci or from any other authority. The
people of Washington have a right
to expect their supreme judges to
know something of law themselves.

THE NEARBY PRESS.
PROGRESSIVE FARMER.
(Athena Press.)

NAlntHu I-ItSS.l
Brief mention was made in the last
weeks Press of the success Herman
II. Curtis is meeting with in the Pa
louise country at diversified farming
Mr.. Curtis, who was formerly engaged
in the lumber business at Athena, To-
Gated on a farm near Pullman. Wash.
three or four years ago, since which
time he has given his attention to di-
versified farming.
Mr.. Curtis has just completed fenc-
ing his farm with hog wire and next
year will begin on the new plan. In
stead of summer following part of his
land as he has in the past he will ro-
tate with crops Of grain, alfalfa, clov-
er, corn and peas and other legumi-
nous and nitrogen gathering plants.
Instead of turning off so much wheat
each year he will turn off hogs and
cattle. In this way the soil will be-
come richer each year instead of
poorer. With his hogs Mr.. Curtis
plans to run them on alfalfa through
the months of May, June. July and
August, feeding them with grain once
a day to keep them growing After
the pasture is dry he will turn them
into fields of peas. topping them off
with corn.
