WHY NOT STATE AID?

Experience shows that it would be
about as easy for an elephant to go
through the eye of a needle as for
any man or set of men to draft a good
roads law that will please all the
people of Oregon. Everybody wants
good roads, of course, and when the
subject in the abstract is under dis
cussion there is never dissenting
voice. But the moment a specific
plan is broached for bringing about
relief it is at once attacked.
At this time a well organized move
for good roads is on and a delegation
of 800 people, mostly from Portland,
stormed the legislature yesterday to
urge the adoption of five measures
that have been drafted and submit
ted by the state good roads associ-
alton. The principal thing about the
plan now under consideration is that
IL provides for a state highway COM
mission and also provides for giving
state aid to counties that vote money
for work to be done under the direc-
ton of the highway commission.
Up here there are many good peo-
They fear that it would not work as
well for eastern Oregon as for west
-ern Oregon. This fear may be well
grounded. Yet the East Oregonian
fails to see why the state aid plan
would not work well in UmatiTla
county. We need some good perma-
nent trunk roads. If the state will
aid in constructing such roads why
not secure that assistance?
Certainly the counties of eastern
Oregon can afford to stand for the
state aid plan if Multnomah county
can do so. Multnomah county pays
a heavy portion of the taxes of this
state. Yet Multnomah itself will gain
little if anything at all from the state
aid law, should it pass. Multnomah
county is small and it already has
good roads. Therefore II the state
aid law is adopted the people of Port
land will be assisting in paying for
roads in other portions Of the state
They will be seeking the betterment
OF Portland by the broad plan OF
working for the betterment of the
state at large.
Why cannot all portions Of the state
take this same view of the matter?

LESSON IN GOOD MANNERS.

a we'll known lawyer is telling a
good story about himself and his eff
forts to correct the manners of his
office boy. One morning not long
ago the young autocrat flew into the
office and, tossing his cap at hook
exclaimed:
Say, Mr.. Blank, there's a baseball
game down at the park today, and
I'm going"
Now, the lawyer is not a hard
hearted man, and was willing the boy
should go, but thought he would
teach him a little lesson in good man
ners.
Jimmie" he said, that isn't the
way to ask a favor. Now, you come
over here and sit down, and I'll show
you how to do it."
The boy took the office chair and
his employer picked up his cap and
stepped outside. He then opened the
door softly and, holding the cap in
his hand, said quietly to the small boy
in the big chair:
please, sir, there is baseball
game at the park today; if you can
spare me / would like to get away for
the afternoon"
In flash the boy responded:
why, certainly, Jimmie, and here
is a dollar to enjoy yourself with"

However Governor Woodrow VIII.

However Governor Woodrow Will
son made such a courageous and per-
sistent fight for the election of Mar
tine that the legislature was forced
to bow to the popular will.
In his fight for Marines election
Wilson was forced to oppose James
Smith, Jr., leader of the democratic
party in New Jersey and man who
had done much to bring about the
governors election. So the machine
element of politicians in New Jersey
now has little use for Wilson. He
does not play the game according to
their rules. He is a big man, not n
petty politician. Yet his defiance of
the party bosses in his state will not
lower him any in the popular estima-
ton. on the contrary Governor Will
sons victory makes him loom larger

DRIVE THE VAGRANTS OUT.

In the attack that was made here
upon little girl night before last
there is good argument for the
closest sort of vigilance with refer
ence to the tramps and thugs that at
times become too numerous in this
city.
Owing to the fact that this is a CEN
t:al railroad point many of these un-
desira bles pass through Pendleton
and too frequently they tarry in pass
ing. Truth though compels the state
rnent that holdups and similar out
RACES occur very rarely in Pendleton
when the conditions are considered.
However the attack made night
before last was a disgrace to the city
and it should cause the officers to
redouble their efforts to keep the
city clean of men who will commit
such offenses. 1t is also incumbent
upon the people to assist the officers
by furnishing them with information
and aiding them in every way pos
sible. Pendleton has a small police
force and to do effective work they
must have the cooperation of the
people.
Let's have a more vigorous anti
hobo crusade.
