THE GHOST AT THE BANQUET.

When Jay Bowerman and a little
group of state senator's blocked the
normal school appropriations two
years ago and the Eastern Oregon
normal was forced to close its doors
this paper protested vigorously.
Knowing the work that was being
done by the Weston institution and
knowing eastern Oregon's need of that
work the East Oregonian deeply re-
sretted that the school should be
closed. 1t especially regretted the
manner in which the job was done
There was no reason for the clos
ing OF the Eastern Oregon normal
save to crafty a thirst for political
revenge. The school was doing good
work and was doing it at but slight
expense to the state. By the normal
school detractors the system of hav-
Ing three normals was criticised. But
those same detractors were unable
tc suggest more satisfactory sys-
better system and they never will
They don't seriously care about Ore
CONS normal school work. Had they
really been looking to the welfare of
our normal school system they would
never have tried to do away with the
old system until a better system had
first been devised. Had they really
cared for the educational interests of
this state and for Oregon's reputation
they would not have chopped off the
normal school funds in the middle of
the school year and forced the schools
to raise money by private subscription
In order to finish the term and grad
uate their senior classes.
At the time the normal schools
were closed this paper predicted that
the senators who concocted the
scheme and put it through would live
t. regret their action. The prediction
was made that at a later day Jay
Bowerman would seek further politi-
cal favor Of the people Of eastern
Oregon and that when he did the
spirit of the Eastern Oregon normal
school would rise like Banquo's ghost
and point an accusing finger at him.
That prediction has been fulfilled.
Bowerman is now the assembly can
didate for the republicon nomination
for governor and is asking the sup
port Of the people of this county. But
unless the East Oregonian is greatly
mistaken he will get few votes here.
The people OF Umatilla county re-
member the fate Of the Weston nor
NAL and they remember Bowerman'
part in that wretched job. Remem-
bering that he was not faithful to
their interests in the past they will
not trust him with higher political
honors.

DRINKING ON THE INCREASE.

Literary Digest: While 1t is gen.
orally admitted that temperance SEN
timent is increasing in the United
States. yet official figures seem to
show that the people are drinking
more liquor, and the daily press is
again putting the question, "Does pro-
hibition prohibit?" Each year shows
an increase of "dry" territory, and
prohibitionists have been quoted as
estimating that more than half the
territory of the United States Is un-
der statewide or local prohibition,
yet preliminary report of the inter-
nal revenue bureau tells US that the
receipts from the tax on distilled splr-
it's have been increasing for ten years
those for the fiscal year Just closed
considerably exceeding those of any
preceding year except 1907.

ly little OF the national fund for the
developmental side of conservation is
spent in Washington state. whereas
relatively much is obtained here from
the development of resources and
spent elsewhere. He forgets that the
real reason why not enough money
is spent here is that the western oppo-
nents OF conservation throttled the
congressional appropriations for con-
servation.
