that the 100000 already available
will not be sufficient for the purpose.
DR.. Steiner also dwelt upon the inn
portance of moving slowly and of
having the plans worked out in de-
tail before starting work. He pointed
out some of the blunders made in es-
tablishing and constructing the main
asylum at Salem and said he hoped
to avoid such here. He wants the
Eastern oregon branch hospital to be
the best and most satisfactory insti-
tuition of its kind in the country.

Thompson, of the Commercial associ-

that the people of Pendleton would
do their utmost towards assisting In
any way possible. He pointed out
that options upon the additional land
had been secured at low prices and
that the city could also be depended
upon to do its part with reference
to supplying water. He said the plans
for the new gravity system were al
ready on file with the state board.

of being inspired by the crowd

TEE SITUATION CAN BE CONTROLLED.

We have been trying to keep
up with the reports of the crop
conditions and have come to
the conclusion that there will be
need this season for storing facil-
tiles, the farmers are organized
intelligently, and they will,
through their Unions, seek to
market their product in a bust
ness-like manner, if the price is
low, the cotton will be stored IN
the warehouses and held in them
to be marketed gradually as the
supply is demanded. we do not
think the cry Of bumper crop will
Great a stampede as was the case
years ago when the receipts,
which were fictitious, caused the
growers Of the staple to hurry it
to the market in the fear that the
price would continue 10 go down,
at that time the facilities were
not good for holding, there were
no warehouses, and no banks that
would advance money, but con-
ditions have changed, the banks
largely of local capital, regard
cotton as first class collateral and
are willing to carry it until a fair
price is obtained. It is our opin-
ion, the year 1911 will put the
farmers and the merchants of the
South to the test, if they succeed
in controlling the product of the
South this time. and they can do
it if they will, then the CONNER
cial battle is won for all time.

The Belton Times contains a
story about Governor Blease's
diScourteous treatment Of a lady

Those who have been thrown in
contact with the governor will
not credit the story, fol' if there
is one thing Blease is noted for
it is his uniform courtesy TO
everybody. Just why such a
story should be given publicity
we cannot see: it certainly will
not harm the man it is intended
to hurt. The whole article has

appearance and rather lively
mein. Hayne is smaller, quieter
and more thoughtful. There are
those who think that in the many
campaigns which Brown and
Eayne have been engaged Hayne
has done the thinking and Browne
the spectacular work. At any
rate: they: too, were caught by
the sudden change in the aspect
of the cotton crop. The rains
have washed away a lot Of their
profits and forced them into at
least temporary obscurity.
Mike Thomas is another big
speculator who has made and lost
two or three fair-sized fortunes.
He has made considerable money
the last year-a million or two
but he was shaken out with the
rest of the bulls in the recent
greet decline in prices. Another
man who played quite a part in
the manipulation of cotton was
Rothschild who was instrumental
in having prominent New York
firm of cotton brokers ruled off
the exchange not long ago for not
carrying out his orders. He, too,
made a good deal of money when
the bull group was IN control OF
the cotton market: but, like all
the rest, saw good deal of it
vanish when the news Of the bum
por crop came after years Of
shortage.
Even James A. Patten. who
made millions in wheat and was
credited as being one of the few
men of recent times whose judg
ment was not impaired by sue
cesses so that he knew when to
unload, also was caught mapping
like all the rest. He appeared in
New York a little more than a
year ago and got into the cotton
market, despite the resolution
that he once expressed of going
into retirement in Colorado when
be got 100000 to the good
New York Evening World.
