LET THE BOARD DO 1T.

The Pendleton water commission
has been handling affairs in a very
satisfactory way and in the view Of
the East Oregonian people may safely
withhold judgment regarding the
Thorn Hollow springs until the board
has completed the work it proposes
to do.
There are some people who have
rushed pell nell to the scene have
looked at something they took to be
the springs and have rushed back
with narrowing reports as to the am
cunt of water now running. Their
reports may be correct of course, but
the East Oregonian prefers to wait
for an investigation by men employ
ed by the water commission rather
than to accept reports from men who
seem to be operating in behalf of the
Byers milling company. The Byers
company is a very good milling COM
pany but it is not up to that COM
pany to suggest how Pendleton
should or should not construct a
mountain water system.

MORE EXPENSIVE HERE.

Discussing the proposition Of cheap
e. gas the Chicago Tribune says:
Chicago householders should arise
with light hearts next Monday. It
will be the first day of an era of
cheaper gas. The S5 cent rate will
then become a thing Of the past It
should have ended last February, but
let that pass. A reduction has been
secured at last and consumers well
come it, They can afford to wait
philosophically the result Of the i'm
pending two years or more Of litiga-
tion between the city and the COM
pany While the suit is dragging its
slow length along through the state
ana federal courts, consumers will be
paying six per cent less for gas than
Of old, and if 1t should be decided
finally that rs cents for the coming
year and 10 cents for the two years
following are fair rates they win get
substantial rebates.
1T Is estimated that the provis-
ional rate which has been fixed by
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1911-08-12

in Bethlehem steel shares in the last
few days is nothing compared to the
activity of Charles NJ. Schwab. He is
the busiest man in the world. Wall
street seldom sees him any more and
then only for a day. but when it does
see him It sees a man too busy to be
finisky about his person appearance
He may have forgotten to shave be-
fore he came downtown. His clothes
from a dusty hat to serviceable boots
are the clothes of a man much too
intent upon doing his errend to care
whether his trousers are creased. he
is not anything like the Charles NJ.
Schwab who had luxurious offices a
few years ago at II Broadway and
was much talked of in large specu-
lations. Wall street Is much more
"bullish" on him now than it was
then. 1t has adopted the belief long
entertained by a few friends and fol-
liwers, that Schwab will yet work
handsomely, hence the speculative ac-
tivity in the shares.
1t is counted bull" argument on
those shares that Mr.. Schwab allghts
from his private car in the yards of
the Bethlehem works and gets right
down on the ground with his men. If
there is fault with a set of rolls
he is willing to crawl around on his

ROOSEVELT AND ALASKA.

There IS sound progressive doctrine
in the declaration of ex-President
Roosevelt for the development of AL
aska {. under governmental control.
Listen TO this from the colonel:
The government must itself con-
troll the development of Alaska, and
adopt as the guiding principle the
idea of shaping that development in
the interest primarily of the people
as a whole, the syndicate or other
developing agencies thus receiving
benefit only as an incident to con-
ferring it.
Il do not think the task is a very
difficult one. if only we, the people,
personally and through our repre-
sentatives approach it with this pur-
pose clearly in mind. and if we in
sist that the agents of the govern
ment act with an understanding OF
the needs of the people and a reso-
lutte purpose to see those needs ac-
complished, even though it be neces-
sary TO override the representatives
of the great interests who wish to
prevent Alaskan development unless
it is shaped primarily to benefit
those interests
This is sentiment of the right sort.
The idea of Roosevelt is that since
the Alaska resources belong to the
public the public should get the good
out of them. No need Of turning
the wealth of Alaska over to the
Cuggenheims and the Morgans.
No reasonable criticism can be
made Of the ex-president's conten-
ton unless it be the criticism that he
does not go far enough. He would
have the Alaska coal mined by cor
porations but under government reg
done direct by the government just
as the reclamation work is carried on?
The government can employ engi-
neers that are just as competent as
any that work for private concerns.
The government should be able to do
the work Just as cheaply as can a pri-
yate corporation. II it does not know
how to do so now then it should
learn The government may have
much to do along this line before
many days.

Indiana Man Says Administration Hndered Prosecution of Cases
 Under Pure FosG Law.

Wiley test'sy as to Lis exper- iments that he nad said disclosed 1t to be harmful preservative in food, was the testimony today of James Bingham, former attorney general of Indiana, before the house committee investigating expenditures in the ag- ricultural department.
 Dr. Wiley is chief of the chem istry bureau of the department.
 Mr. Bingham and State Chemist Il. A, Barnard, who also testified today, had to get an order from the court in 1909 before they could take tho testimony of Dr. Wiley and his asso- ciates to aid them in an Indiana suit over the state pure food law. MT. Bingham, who went to sec the presi- dent, said President Taft treated hls request as department matter and saw no reason why the government chemists should not give their testl- mony. The state of iIRdiana en- countered tae active oppositienn whereas the firms that were attack ing the Indiana law, found no diffi- culty in taking fifty five pedositions of those who had participated in the Remsen boards experiments, when the finding in favor of benzoate Of soda in small doses' was made.
