MUCH NEEDED ACTION

Every city and town in the North
west should join in the Spring Clean
up movement, for 1t is undoubtedly
true that every section of Oregon,
Washington and Idaho will be visited
by large number of Fasteners. The
West earned reputation last sum
mer as fine summer resort and ac-
cording to the best information OBJ
tainable there will be many tourists
coming to the Northwest during the
warm months. The cry has gone out
clean up; plant more trees and
shrubbery, abolish the disgraceful
bill boards, preserve your beautiful
landscape; let the visitor be able to
see the real beauty of your city" In
many cities and towns the cry is be-
ing needed; the bill board man is be-
ing told that he is not wanted; if
the man who uses the bill boards for
advertising wants real results, let
him advertise in the home paper; that
is the medium which gives results,
and the medium which should be
used.

BIGGER QUESTION is AHEAD
Much Harder Times Is Ahead for the
People of the Large Cities I'm
less Action Is Taken
Herald Republican

Herald Republican,
That Senate committee occupied
with the question: why is the high
cost of liying?" better hurry and dis
pose of it for there is a bigger ques-
ton ahead. The question of prc1.d-
ing food for the future treads swift
ly on the heels of this inquiry into
present high prices. Bigger than the
problem of cost is the problem of liv-
ing. And unless the excess of popu-
lation in the cities is distributed to
the land the next ten years will be
fraught with severe trials than any
of the past years has known.
More men must raise fOodstuffs.
The proportion of producers to eaters
will have to be adjusted. 1t is author
itatively stated that the cities present
three consuming units to one pro-
ducing unit; and that in the coun-
| try it is three producing to two con-
Stunning units.
/ The, country will take care of it.
self. Make sure of that. You can't
starve the farmer. But he will sell
only the surplus after provision tor
his own has been made. And his eX
cess of one unit will by no means
take care of that hungry two units in
the city.
The nation faces a crisis of the We y
gravest Importance, and congressional
inquiries which ignore it will simply
occupy time of senators without be-
fit to themselves or any one e.se.
Sixty per cent of the nations pOpu.a
ton is in the cities. Out of the re-
naming forty per cent probably only
two thirds is producing foodstuffs for
sale at any price. What must the re-
suit be? Why, higher and higher
prices with less and less food. That
is the blank wall ahead of the nation.
In only one way can disaster be
averted. The government will have to
help the people get back to the farm.
In every possible way the men will
have to be convinced that farming
pays; that it is as agreeable and de-
sirable work as any they can get in
the factory; that farm home may be
comfortable and as pleasant as any
the city will afford for the price a
producer can pay; that the farmer
has blessings which can be hoped for
no where else; that the former is
sure of his shelter, and his food and
his home-a condition which is for
eign to the city worker.
. The nation must help the people
of the nation to make partnership
with the land, to break up the new
country to increase the productive
ness Of the old, to learn how, and
then work. No matter how they set
tie the present question. Here is a
bigger one that'looms large, and will
demand answering very soon.
And the nation that cannot answer
it will certainly starve.

LOVERS OF LEARNING

Some idea of the value which thu
Chinese place upon education ma!
be gained from an imperial edict is
sued about two years ago which
reads. "All boys over eight years Of
age must 60 to school, or their par
ents or relatives will be punished. Il
they have no relatives, the officials
will be held responsible for their edu
cation. The carrying out of this
simple but comprehensive order will
require million schools, for China
is densely populated, and the gov.
eminent is hampered by the lack of a
sufficient number of competent teach.
ers. English has been officially adop-
ted as the language for instruction in
what is called the new learning" be.
cause the Chinese language cannot
yet express this new thought, nor
does it have the suitable text books
But under modern influences a great
change is gradually taking place.
New words are coming, old words are
charged with new, meaning, and in
time Chinese, which is a really won
derful language capable of express
ing clearly the most subtle thought,
will be able to prepare proper text
books.
1t is no exaggeration to say that
upto the present time the best edu-
cational work in China has been done
by the missionaries They have de-
veloped all grades of schools from
the kindergarten up to the college,
and have few institutions which are
universities in the process of making.
Their graduates are eager to help
spread the new ideas and high ideals
of life which they themselves have
absorbed, and are doing good service
for their country by filling posts as
teachers in the new government
schools and colleges. They form one
of the most enlightened elements in
the social and political life of the en-
pire, and whatever is done to streng-
then that element Is not only good
Christianity but sound principle in
other than ethical relations. The Bos-
ton Herald said not long ago, There
is no more certain method of creating
honorable trade relations than that
represented by the mission work in
other lands"
The emphasis which we ourselves
place upon education awakens a pee
uliar interest in race whose love
OF learning Is a strong national trait.

NO STOP TO THE IMPROVEMENTS

Although the Northern Pacific and
Great Northern, particularly the lat
ter, lost millions by reason of the
slides in the Cascades they have an
nounced that they will proceed with
improvements contemplated in the

will be no interruption to the devel-
opment of the old as well as the new
towns and cities along the rights OF

promises much for the states of Ore

ALLOTMENTS TO INDIANS
New Amendment to Indian Appropri-
alton Bill Provides for $50
Acres to Eacl.

Poeatello Tribune
That allotments of land in several
ty on the Fort Hail Indian peserva-
tlon will be made this summer and
that the members of the tribe will re-
ceive 800 acres each was indicated
in telegram received this morning
by w. A. Fisher from r. w. DiXey
and Phil Lavanatta, half breed In
dians, who were recently sent to
Washington as special representatives
of the Indians on the reservation. The
telegram announced that an amend
ment had been attached to the Iu-
dian appropriation bill, which passed
the senate day before yesterday, pro-
viding that the Indians should be al
lotted 800 acres of land-at least 40
acres of agricultural land, under the
Fort Hall Irrigation project, and
down in the fertile bottoms, and the
remainder in grazing lands. Senator
Hepburn introduced an amendment to
the Indian bill not long ago, provid-
my for the allotment of 80 acres Of
agricultural land to each head of fam
lily on the reservation. and 100 acres
of grazing lands. When Major Frank
Caldwell, superintendent of the res
ervation, was in Washington not long
ago, he had the amendment changed
to read 40 acres of agricultural land.
Upon his return he reported to the
Indians the result of his work, and
council of tribesmen was held at
Ross Fork. The terms of the original
Fort Hall treaty were fresh in the
ON, nj 1f Nf o11or
bers of the tribe, and it was finally
decided to send delegation to the
national capital to interview the
Great White Father" The Fort
Bridger treaty, according to w. A.
Fisher, who is familiar with all the
various moves made in the matter Of
negotiating treaties with the Indians
of the Fort Hall reservation, provide
that no cession of land on the reser-
walton shall be of any force and eff
feet unless ratified by majority of
the members of the tribe. At the re-
cent Ross Fork conference, mention
ed above, it was practically unani-
mously agreed that in view of the
fact that the last annuity from the
government arising from the sale of
lcoCl NdtlOu lduu W Cu0
inside the five mile limit was paid
last year and that from now on the
Indians must depend upon themselves
for livelihood; and in view of the
further fact that large number of
the Indians have gone into the cattle
business on large scale. which bus
mess requires abundant grazing land
the Indians agreed to stand out for
a larger allotment than provided in
the Hepburn amendment, and the
new amendment to the Indian bill, as
stated in the telegram this morning
to Mr.. Fisher, provides for the strict
application of the terms of the Fort
Bridger treaty-or 800 acres to each
head of family.
There are about 1000 Indians

A DREAMER'S ACCOMPLISH
MENTS

Capital News
The world is inclined to laugh at
dreamers. They are pronounced i'm
practical and with that their ideas
are dismissed with smile, more OF
federation than aught else.
But there is great dreamer who
has done much for Idaho, and who
has, perhaps, never received the cred
it due him. And the peculiar thing
about it is that his early derams are
coming true, instead of waking up
he continues to dream other dreams.
This man some twenty years ago
saw for the first time an irrigated
tract of land. He didn't know thing
about irrigation, but he saw things
that others failed to see--he dream
ed. He saw thousands of families
cultivating the soil of Idaho made
fertile by the transmission of water
where but single family was then
fond. He appreciated what it meant
to have water to seep into the soil
reaching the seeds and roots of grains
and trees, just at the very time that
water would do the most good, for
he had lived in Nebraska where wat
er was often lacking just at the mo-
ment when it's presence would double
or treble the crop that was produced
when it did come.
When David L. Burley accepted the
position of general passenger agent
for the Oregon Short Line railway, he
was not satisfied to see his trains
loaded with people ticketed to Ore
gon or Washington points or from
those points through to some eastern
point; he wanted to see the time ar
rive when his trains would be carry
ing passengers back and forth in
Idaho and carrying tickets from out
side points to points within that state
which carried SO many miles of the
Short Line system. That ambition
helped him magnify his dreams per-
haps, but the first work he did was
to set about inducing people to come
to Idaho.
He had a desperate time of it, and
frankly acknowledges that it cost him
more to get one man located in Idaho
then than it does to get thousand
of them today. He first adopted the
theory that the man who knew by
personal experience what irrigation
would do, was the proper man to send
among the farmers of Iowa, Nebraska
Kansas and surrounding states. Ac-
cordingly he furnished free transpor-
tation to all who would take the trip
from Idaho to 60 back and preach
the doctrine of irrigated lands. Those
approached, however, looked with su-
spicion upon the accounts of the pro-
ductiveness of irrigation, and refused
to believe what they were told.
Then what amounted to detective
agency was adopted. Whenever it
could be learned that anywhere in
the central western states a man had
sold his farm and was thinking of 60
ing elsewhere, agents were sent to
him to present the claims of this won
derful Idaho land. Still the results
were unsatisfactory even though per-
sonal solicitation was resorted to-.
But Burley dreamed on. These
western men who had tried irrigation
and knew what it would do, were
not believed. Some other plan had to
