DOING WELL.

Umatilla county was we'll treated
by the legislature yesterday. Sena-
tor Smiths artesian we'll bill was
passed by the senate, while the bill
allowing $4,000 annually for the dis
trict fair passed both houses over the
governors veto.
That the artesian we'll law will tend
to further the development Of the
country seems unquestioned. Arte-
sian water has been found near Wal
Ia Walla, in the Yakima country and
in Idaho, Very likely it may be had
in this county. If so the greatest
problem that confronts the farmers in
the dry land sections will have been
solved. Water is all that is needed
to make this county a paradise.
When the artesan we'll bill was
placed on its final passage in the
senate yesterday the measure was
opposed by Senator Cole, according to
the press advices. Why there should
have been any opposition to the
measure seems very difficult to un-
derstand.
Upon it's face, at least, Senator
Smiths bill is a most meritoriOus one.
II merely provides that when they
desire to do so, farmers may cooper
ate in digging artesian wells. True,
II provides that if the majority OF
men within the proposed district want
a we'll the minority must help pay
the expense. But this is not unfair.
This city, and all other cities, takes
the same attitude regarding street inn
provements. Some Main street prop
erty owners did not want to pave the
business section of the town, but TIE
majority did and the unwilling ones
were required to pay their portion Of
the expense.
Let us have the arteslan well law
by all means. Then let the farmers
take advantage Of it and see II ar
teslan water may not be had in this.

TRIBUTE TO MRS. ROOSEVELT.

Mr.. Roosevelt has been our presi-
dent for eight years and in that
time, whether for praise or blame. he
and his dongs have been handled al
most daily in the newspapers. But
the present-day craving for notoriety
may lead us to overlook the credit
able fact that we have not been en-
tertained morning after morning by
the accounts of the doings or Mrs,
Roosevelt I wonder If the women OF
this country realize how honored
they have been in the representation
she has given them, or recognize the
graceful dignity which has marked
her position in the White House.
Mrs. Roosevelt is, in the old phrase,
ito the manner born" and she es-
tablishes that fact by the poise with
which she has carried herself through
her husbands term of office and the
restraint she has shown i'm ignoring
the schemes of the badge wearers
who infest Washington. In word,
we have not passed through. as has
so often happened, the evolution and
education of a presidents wife but
we have seen a lady whise dignity
and balance we would do we'll not
only to admire, but to imitate.-New
York Times.

SEE THAT II STAYS.

Pendleton must do its part towards
rebuilding the wooden mill and it
will do its part. OF this the East
Oregonan feels sure. Though at this
time all of the money for taking the
woolen mill bonds has not been rais-
ed this paper knows that the people
Of the city are not going to let the
woolen mill leave Pendleton through
any fault of their own.
Bishop brothers may rest assured
that the local money for the mill will
be forthcoming when it is needed.
They may also rest assured that in
the establishment of the mill they
will be heartily supported by local
people The people of Pendleton
know the benefits to be derived from
the wooden mill and they will never
consent TO the loss OF the mill.
Nor is there any legitimate reason
for moving the local plant to another
location. The Pendleton mill has a
reputation and an established busi-
ness that is worth many thousands of
dollars All this would be lost were
the mill taken away.
Then this is the wool section Of the
state Pendleton is the wool town OF
Oregon and it is the natural location
for a wooden mill. A woolen mill be-
longs here for the same reason that
salmon canneries belong at Astoria
To move the local plant away to a
non-woolgrowing section would be as
absurd as to bring a fish packing
plant here from the lower Columbia,
Some argue that power is expen-
sive here and that labor is higher
than elsewhere. But this county has
a half dozen good power sites that
await development and very soon
cheaper power will be available, If
present rates are not satisfactory.
AS to labor, it has been the mill
company's fault that labor has been
expensive in the past. The old mill
was never operated continuously and
quite naturally the management had
to pay more for help than will the
Bishop brothers, for the latter pro-
pose to run the mill throughout the
entire year.
The wooden mill belongs in PEN
dleton and it must stay in Pendeton.

present officials should serve out
their terms at the salaries prevailing
when they took office. When these
men ran for office they knew what
pay they were to receive and they
were glad to accept the positions
Since such is the case, they have no
right to ask for increased pay for
themselves. II they find that their
salaries are too low, let them suggest
that their successors be given more.
In the payment OF officials the
state should be guided by business
principles II good, competent men
can be secured for officers at the sal
aries now being paid, why give in
creased pay?

SALARY ADVANCES.

There is much sense in Governor
Chamberlain's stand upon the sub
ject Of salary advances. He declares
he will veto all salary increasing bills
that provide for advances to go into
effect at once. In other words he OBJ
jects to raising salaries for the bene-
fit Of present incumbents.
No doubt many public officers are
underpaid and some salaries need ad-
vanclng. But during the present ses-
sion there has been such a scramble
for increased pay that a halt must be
called. The funds Of the state are
limited and many meritorious de-
mands are being made upon the ex-
chequer.
There is one very effective way to
stop the better salary grab and Gov
ernor Chamberlain suggests it. If
bills for salary advances would but
specify that the increased pay begin
at the close Of present terms there
would be far fewer salary bills pre-
sented.
Then II Is but right and fair that

the lad for his untidiness had no eff

SCIENTIFIC WORK PAYS.

At Connen, Washs the commercial
club has been cooperating with the
state agricultural college in maintain
ing a demonstration farm. Speaking
of the success Of the movement the
Post Intellgencer says:
one of the most remarkable stories
of financial results from modern Sci
entic farming comes from Franklin
county. Two years ago the depart
ment of agriculture in the state col
lege at Pullman, began a series of ex-
periments on a farm situated near
Connell. A tract of so acres was
leased TO the experimental department
for a period Of years, the local COM
mercial club paying all preliminary
expenses and rentals The owner of
the land is regarded as one of the
best farmers in that county, and has
harvested II bushels of wheat per
acre from the land occupied by the
new station. Under dry farming
methods adopted by college instruc-
tors the same land produced 80 BUSH
els per acre for 1908.
The secret of success in the expert
ments on wheat lands at Connell lies
in the methods of tilling and prepar-
ing the soil. A perfect system was
established and carried out in every
detail during the entire growing sea-
son. In the early spring a disc har-
row was run over the fields to mulch
the soil for holding moisture. That
cut the stubble of the preceding year
and caused the weed seeds to ger
inmate before plowing time. The
plow was followed with a subsoil
packer, to renew capillary attraction
and to prevent drying out of the land,
on the surface or in the moist soil
beneath. The surface was kept in
good condition by the use of weeders
and surface cultivatOrs. A dry dust
mulch protected the roots of the grain
and sufficient moisture was kept in
the soil so mature and ripen the ce-
reals.
