PENDLETON TEAM
WINS CONTEST

The victory of the Pendleton High
| School debating team over that of the
local team at Pendleton last Wednes-
day evening was by no means an easy
one, says the East Oregonian. From
| first to last the discussion was warm
and all points hotly contested but up
| until the final rebuttal the Pendleton
| boys seemed to have a slight lead.
However, in his closing speech, Lester
Murphy, leader of the affirmative,
delivered some sledeghammer blows
at the structure which the home team
had builded and it was shaken consid-
erably. That it came near to falling
was made evident when the two to one
| decision was announced.
The question debated, was "Resolv-
ed, That national conservation of our
natural resources is preferable to
state conservation, the Pendleton
boys uphoding the state idea.
The principal points made by the
affirmative were as follows:
/. History proves the superiority Of
national conservation.
2. National conservation will result
| in greater economic good.
g. 1t will insure uniform policy in
| every state.
a. 1t will divorce conservation from
| politics and eliminate special privilege.
S. The opinions of prominent men
attest the soundness and LEGALITY of
national conservation.
The Pendeton boys contended that
inasmuch as 95 per cent of the national
resources are in seven western states,
laws should not be made and admins
tered thousands of miles away and the
| injustice of the present policy was
pointed out, the fact that while almost
all of the great resources are in these
western states, the representation in
congress from these same states is
overwhelmingly outnumbered by the
eastern members. Many Of the defects
of the present system, among them
the revokable right, were pointed
out and the fact impressed upon the
judges that such defects, such misman-
agement, such destruction, and such
graft as had attended the history of
our natural resources had been the out
growth of the national idea.
The Hood River team was composed
of Lester Murphy, Forrest Moe and
Earle Spaulding. The local trio was
composed of James Hartwell, Claude
Hampton and Chester Fee.
Judges of the debate were T. C.
Elliot, of Walla Walla, Edgar W.
Smith, of Helix, and Prof. Dunsmore,
of Whitman college.

STEVENSON WINS
CLOSE GAME

The local aggregation of the Mid
Columbia baseball league experienced
another wad of tough luck Sunday on
their trip to Stevenson, when the team
of that pace won the closely fought
game by a score of to 2. The locals
seem to have taken slump in team
work. The playing of individual men,
bers of the team seemed to be up to
par, although number of costly
errors were made. The trouble lay in
the fact that they were made in such
way as to count doubly for Stevenson.
The Hood River team got almost three
times as many hits as the Stevenson
team but they were not punched effec-
lively. Kent, who held down first for
the local team, is reported to have
payed good game. Gill was the star
batsman. He made four hits. Myers
pitched a fine game striking out Is
men. Large also caught good game.
Errors by Morse had much to do with
the defeat.
The local boys lined up as follows:

ANOTHER CONSUMPTION CURE.

Professor de Szendeffy of Budapest
is the originator of a new Specific"
for the cure of tuberculosis, known
as Dioradin. This preparation comes
in boxes of six ampules, price $3.50.
This composition, according to The
Journal of the American Medical AS
sociation,- is iodin, menthol and lilo
of drop of radium- barium Chord.
Glittering generalities abound in the
reports of the results of this new
remedy and, while these make in
teresting newspaper reading, they
are very unsatisfying to the physi-
clan who would like definite, scien-
tific evidence. Professor de Seen
deffy's remedy may prove of moderate
value in the treatment of tubercu-
losis, but as the London Lancet says:
"The exploitation in the lay press OF
immature work in regard to any med
ical question is particularly to be de-
precated. Hopes are raised in the
minds of many sufferers which are
fore-doomed to disappointment, more
especially when they rest on such a
slender foundation as the treatment

THE GARDEN CONTEST.

The award of prizes to pupils ex-

farm here is of more than passing i'm
portance. It marked the beginning
of the convincing demonstrations
which may be expected to follow of
the actual practical. value of an agri-
cultural course. 1t must be remem-
bered that the present farm was not
purchased until late this spring and
that even a showing of garden pro-
ducts by the pupils is important.
If this much can be accomplished
by Professor Bergh in SO short a
time, Bemidji may we'll feel vindi-
Gated in putting up the fight she did

"Back to the soil' should not be in:
terpreted simply as command to en-
gage in agricultural pursuits, but
rather, in a broad sense, as sugges-
ton to become better acquainted with
nature. "
Minnesota has taken certain pre-
liminary steps which, if followed out
logically, will lead to the establish
ment of mammoth playground for
whomsoever cares to use it, The
state has under the control of it's for
estry board a 22,OOO-acres park, in
the confines of which rest the head
waters of the Mississippi river. It is
fitting, of course, that the source of
the greatest river of the world should
be safeguarded, but it is as import
ant that the present methods of US
ing the park should be continued and
enlarged. =
The park serves as haven for
wild animal and bird life of the
North, as preserve in which forest
ry can be practiced, and both as san
itarium and pleasure resort where
shattered nerves may be renewed and
depleted vitality restored,
In big sense, little more than
start has been secured, A statewide
interest should be manifested in the
undertaking, suitable appropriations
should be made for it's maintenance
and plans perfected for putting them
into use. Much already has been

man has only to guide the forces
which are ever present and ever ac--
tive to make Itasca state park ideal

DR.. Wiley's case, expresses itself in
part as follows:
CDR. Wiley is not the author of
the pure-food law: 1t would continue
to be enforced whether he were in
the public service or not. He has oc-
cupied a subordinate place in the, de-
partment, but has always managed
to make it appear that he was the
only champion of pure food at Wash

sured that the pure-food law will be
enforced just as vigorously and ear
