THE MAN OF i5.

The Chicago Record-Herald de-
fends the middle aged employe in
this manner:
There is no reason why employers
and men of affairs should not freely
join the league against the anti-45-
year age limit. No one knows better
than a level-headed. experienced em-
ployer the value of the training, dis
cipline, steadiness acquired by a man
o 40 or over. A rule" against mid
die age would indeed be absurd and
suicidal.
OF course. there are positions in
which youth is highly desirable, for
youth spells ambition initiative, pro-
gressiveness, promotion. Young men
expect to grow up with their calling,
rise in it and do it and themselves

pect to become president" of the
company which engages him.
But in every industry or business
there is great need for the qualities
and characteristics of middle age. Let
the appeal be. not to philanthrophy.
but TO common sense and self-interest
There is danger in any ready-made
formula, convention, prejudice or
craze. The well-managed firm will
not become a slave to a formula or
rule 1t will encourage investigation
and discrimination. Some men of so
are perhaps, the very men it needs.
The question is. in any given case
what the applicant is, what he has
done, what his training has been, not
how old he is.
To repeat, sensible employers will
heartily cooperate with an efficient

MORE FROM O. d. TEEL.

Hermiston, Ore. Dec. Z. 1911.
Editor East Oregon an.
Pendleton, oregon.
I read your editorial of December
6, Local Rights Come First" with
a good deal of pleasure and agree
with you in pract call yall you said,
except the last two lines.
Stantield stands chance of losing
several thousand acres of tributary
land as well as having its drainage
and transportation shut off and de-
stroyed. In addition to this Stanfield
has had several lessons of the value
of flood waters.
While there may be a little jeal-
ousy between Hermiston and Stan
fleld, which is natural, the motives of
Stanfitld are to preserve it's tributary
territory on the meadows and secure
more territory by encouraging the ir-
rigation of lands lying between there
and Pendleton.
If the water in the proposed reser-
voir a, its highest is above the SIS
foot e'evation it will destroy STAN
fields drainage If at 592 feet il will
flood the floor of the depot. If at 61O

from a point above Echo and destroy
Stanfield's transportation.

\ WIDE DIFFERENCE.

Next Tuesday evening local people
will face the responsibility of de-
olaring through the Commercial club,
their attitude regarding the west ex-
tension of the Umatilla project. 1t
is a proposition that calls for inves-
tigation and thinking because many
the belief of this paper however that
if local men will give the matter due
consideration they will find that their
course is plain and that the city will
adopt an attitude somewhat similar
TO the attitude taken by this paper.
In connection with the various
complaints now being made against
the extension ii seems timely to re-
mark that there is a world of differ
ence between the merits of the OBJ
jections raised by the settlers on the
upper Umatilla river and such
streams as Birch and Mckay creeks
and the objections raised by people
in Stanfield. The settlers on the up
per river and tributary creeks have
just right to complain and the JUS
tice Of their objection has been set
forth many times by this paper.
The people of Stanfield, or most of
them, object to the extension because
they think it will hurt their town and
they think right. The extension
would take some good territory away
from StanfieId and it would also mean
that the Coyote cutoff would not have
Stanfield as its eastern terminus. 1t
would rule Stanfield out of the race
for the O.-W. r. & y. freight divis-
ion and the dream Of freight divis-
len and OF future supremacy in the
west end is a vision the Stanfieldites
still cherish.
To build up the town Of Stanfield is
worthy work-from stanfield
standpoint-and the East Oregonian
is not criticising the men down there
for what they are doing. It is pos
sible however that the motives that
inspire the business men of that lit
tie town may not appeal so strongly
TO the businessmen of Pendleton.
They should not because the question
as to whether stanfield grows or does
not grow has nothing to do with the
merits Of the Umatilla extension.
These points are mentioned in
hopes they may help shed light upon
rather perplexing affair. Incident
ally they will show why this paper is
very willing to uphold the upper river
settlers in their struggle with the gov
ernment as represented by Oliver p.
Morton but is unwilling to go into
spasms because the people Of STAN
field do not want the extension car
