BALLINGER PROMISES TO
AID UMATILLA PROJECT

In telegram to the Portland Com
mercial club, Secretary of the Inter-
Tor Ballinger assures the club that
necessary investigations will be made
at once to ascertain If Oregon has been
overlooked in getting its proportion
ate share of the s20,000,000 reclama-
ton fund apportioned by President
Taft, says the Journal.
Oregon's share, according to the
apportionment. is but 1926, 900, where
as the state has turned something like
S6,000,000 in to the fund and this in
significant amount would fall far
short of carrying on the projects al
ready under way and in such a shape
that heavy losses would be sustained.
Secretary Bailinger's telegram
reads:
Washington, d. c., Dec. 81.
Portland Commercial Club: Per
sonally believe West Umatilla project
should be undertaken by government
as soon as funds can be commanded
for its construction upon satisfactory
assurance from the service that funds
are or will be available to commence
and complete this project. l shall
use my utmost endeavor to secure its
undertaking. The necessary investi-
CATION will be made without delay.

Grass Motorcycle club and their ac-
companying friends left for Colorado
Springs at 80 o'clock this afternoon

city. Canon City was the objective
point in the 1911 tour of the club and
more time was spent here by the rid
ers than at any other place in their
itinerary.

greatly pleased with their reception
and Treatment in this city and are
loud in their praises of the scenic
attractions of the surrounding terri
tory. which they pronounce the finest
in the state. They were captivated by
the splendid roads they found here,
especially the Skyline drive and the
new highway to the top of the Royal
Gorge. than which they are disposed
to believe there are none better west
OF the Missouri river.

shown through the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Dali De weese on Lincoln park

tunity OF inspecting the hunting tro-
phies collected by Mr.. De weese in
various parts OF the world. Later they
proceeded to the penitentfary and were
escorted through the different de-
partnents Of that institution as the
guests OF Warden lyman. Both excur-
sions we're interesting to the Kansans
and combined with other incidents Of
their stay mere to give them a good
opinion of Canon City and its people.
The run to Colorado Springs will
require three or four hours under fav-
cable conditions and will preclude
much sight seeing in the Pixies Peak
district before Thursday morning. A
couple or three days will be devoted
to Colorado Springs. Manitou and

Whatever conduces to the inn
provement of man, either spirit
ually. morally or physically.
should be cultivated. One of the
great needs of the race today is
the proper development of all the
faculties.
We cannot all receive the same
training, because we cannot all
be in the same school of advant-
age and circumstances, but we
can all use our best endeavors to
improve the opportunities Offer
ed for our advancement. We
can do more. Those who are
favored above others may exer-
else an influence for good over
those about them; and by exam
pie and precept, by a helpful
word and encouraging look, slim
ulate to action.
One of the greatest needs of
humanity is a tolerant spirit,
that leads those who occupy al
better position in society, who
are regarded by their fellowmen
as superior in intellect, education
or refinement, to be ready to-con-
slider that the earth upon which
they walk is precisely the same,
and the air they breathe comes
from the same source as that of
their more illiterate fellows.
That the difference between
them is only a matter of environ
ment.

No, Senator Bailey, the people do

that they refrain from licking
