EARLY WHEAT HISTORY.

Pendleton, Nov. 81, 1912.
Editor East Oregonian:
In your issue or Nov. 10, there is
a statement from Mr.. C. A. Barrett
that the first wheat in Umatilla coun-
ty was raised probably in 1871 or
1872, which needs correction. In 1871
l took load of wheat for Mr.. j., II.
Mccoy, of the Umatilla Meadows, to
Walla Walla to be ground into flour;
in 1872 took load of wheat to the
Umatilla Indian Reservation mill to
be ground into flour. This old gov
ernment flour and sawmill was then
very old looking affair, and the set
tiers of the Umatilla Meadows had
been taking their wheat up to tha,
old government mill for five years
The father of j. H. Raley was raising
and shipping wheat to Portland in
1872. Yours respectfully,
FRANK RACK.

term a minority president.
The Chicago Inter-Ocean presumes on
this to suggest that the new admin
istration should attempt but little in
the way of reform.
There is not the slightest possibil-
ity the new president will be influ-
enced by such. advice. 1t comes from
the wrong quarter. Even were the
thing true it would be no reason why
it should cause any change in the
attitude of the president elect Presi-
dent Lincoln did not change his views
because of the fact he was minor
ity president. He had but 80 per
cent of the popular vote when first
elected. But that fact did not change
him into a pro-slavery man. Presi-
dent Polk was also minority presi-
dent. He had but 49 per cent of the
popular vote. Taylor had but Al per
cent of the vote. Buchanan went in
to office with but As per cent of the
popular vote. Hayes had but Al per
cent. Garfield had but 4S per cent.
Harrison had but AZ per cent while
Cleveland had but 48 per cent of the
popular vote in 1884 and 46 per cent
in 1892. SO it may be seen so-called
minority presidents have been rather
common.
But in reality Wilson will not be
a minority president. The vote shows
that he would have easily had a ma
jority over anyone candidate had he
been opposed by but one man Had
he been running against either Taft
or Roosevelt alone he would have had
majority. He could have beaten Taft
with ease and Roosevelt with but
slightly lessened majority. An exami-
nation of the returns will show this
to be the case. A fact that many Of
the wise ones are overlooking is that
Wilson lost a host of democratic votes
to Roosevelt. With Roosevelt out Of
the race he would have had a walk
away against Taft. With Roosevelt
alone as an opponent he would have
drawn the whole anti-Roosevelt re-
publican vote as well as his own dem
ocratic vote and could not have failed

The Error be endorsed by great
OF School many people. His idea
Athletics. is that school athletics as
now practiced means but
little benefit to students because the
man who really needs development
generally has nothing to do save to
yell for the team.
The trouble with school athletics as
we have it is that the system brings
training for the strong who scarcely
need it and bars the physically frail
who need it badly. Furthermore ath-
letic work, particularly football, is Of
ten so strenuous that harm rather than
benefit results therefrom. Many
promising athletes overdo themselves
and suffer for it throughout their
lives.
The schools need more physical cul-
for the mass of students and less
strain on the few who are able to
star. 1t would be better If champion
ships could be awarded not for what
a team can do but on the strength of
a showing by the entire student body.
Some day there will be reform in this
line and school athletics will be handl-

rather than to providing spectacular
exhibitions.
