LOCAL VS.. COUNTY CONTROL.

The principal feature about the
home rule amendment is that it calls
for settlement of the liquor question
by towns and cities rather than by
counties. Should the amendment car
ry then the people of Pendleton and
they alone would decide how to ham
lie the liquor problem within this city.
People who reside elsewhere in the
county and have no direct concern
in Pendleton or in the settlement of
problems that confront this city
would not have a voice.
AS a general rule it is considered
wise to leave the settling of perplex-
ing questions to the people who are
directly concerned with those ques-
tions. For instance it is now regard
ed almost universally that the people
of the south should be left free to
handle the color question which con-
fronts them, At the same time the
people of the west are insisting with
good logic that the Pacific coast
should have the say with reference
to the admission OF Asiatics. We
don't want the people of New England
to decide that problem for us. BY
the same logic we may say that Pen
dleton people should decide in what
particular way Pendleton shall handle
the liquor problem and that the peo-
pie of Milton or of Cold Springs
should not be given the power to
settle those issues for Pendleton.

SOME WISE OBSERVATIONS.
Mr.. }. II. White Talks Entcrtsininely
on the Cotton Situation.
Bryan Eagle:

Bryan Eagle:--
! notice in your valuable paper that
the reporter quoted me as saying that
the farmers of Brazos county had lost
$4,000 by not holding their cotton. |
meant to say that they. or we had sold
$1,000 bales at 13 cents per pound or
less. whereas II we had held that II, 1000
bales averaging 500 pounds 10 the
bale. for Is cents. OF In other words IL
the farmers had been as well organi-
zed as they should have been, and
made a demand the first OF the sea
son as we well knew then the crop
was short and the demand was great.
We would have had today 100000 Of
our Just and hard earnings.
This amount would give $500 to ey-
cry child in the scholastic age In Braz-
os county. or say slo.3l2 and II would
still leave in the hands OF the produ-
GERS si4s.6ss TO buy books. clothing.
provisions and other necessaries OF
life. or pay on that home he and his
wife and children are trying so hard
TO pay for.
But owing 10 the admission OF the
exchange or spectators. we have no
say as TO what our produce or labor
is worth. and this enormous sum Is
boarded up to fight the producer with
the next time there y a good crop of
any one kind made.
o, how long will these conditions
remain? Now Mr.. Editor. have TAX.
en- up much more OF your valuable
space than expected TO. but allow me
to say that every thing that Is raised
on the farm is now demanding a good
price. and IL the farmers will blant
plenty OF corn. raise plenty OF hay.

Feeding the Future MILLIONS.

The science Of market gardening has

amount of fruits and vegetables, green
vegetables, produced on small three
acre plot outdoors straight through
the winter months Q50,000 heads Of
lettuce, for example, on one three-acre

future has in stere.
Crude as yet, ana the produce at
fancy prices still because transporta-
ton is slow, the gardens must Keep
close to Paris, and there the rents are
high. But give swift and cheap COM
municatiou between a city and the
country for hundreds Of miles around.
and give the horticultural chemists 80
years more to lind what can really be
done with artificial earth, earth made
by machinery, and there is left not
the shadow of doubt that the future
people OF cities, whether they live in
town or In some beautiful suburb 100
miles away, will have fruits and green
vegetables at prices next to nothing
