and sees clearly the Importance OF ag-

tion. as will be seen from the follow
ing extract:
Il need not stop 10 tell you how
fundamental to the life of the Ma
ton is the production of its food
Our thoughts may or ginally be con-
centrated upon the cities and the
hives OF industry. upon the cries Of
the crowded market places and the
clangor of the factory. but 1t is from
the quiet interspaces of the open val
leys and the free hillsides that we
draw the sources of life and of pros
perity, from the farm and the ranch,
from the forest and the mine. With
out these every street would be silent,
every office deserted. every factory
fallen into despair"
With reference to the subjects OF
credits the president said:
And yet the farmer does not stand
upon the same footing with the for
ester and the miner in the market OF
credit. He is the servant of the sea-
sons Nature determines how long he
must wait for his crop. and will not
be hurried in her processes. He may
give his note. but the season of its ma
turity depends upon the season when
his crop natures, lies at the gates OF

sold. And the security he gives is OF

With the election now a thing of
the past the chief question relates to
whether the charge of a shortage in
the accounts of the water BOARD was
the truth or falsehood Saturday
evening before the election a story
was published in local paper under
slaring headlines asserting there was
a "s33,55o shortage at the bank" The
evident intent OF that article was to
cause people to believe there was
something wrong with the accounts of
the water board and to throw out the
impression that in some way the pub
lie money had been stolen or grated
In justice to Messrs Moore Brown,
Ladow and Jack that charge should
be thoroughly sifted by disinterested
experts selected by disinterested par
ties so the people may learn the abb
solute truth of the matter 1t is not
a question of politics now it is a ques.
tion of the personal honor of Will
Moore, Marion Jack, G. 1. I.adow and
J. T. Brown.
In the recent campaign the East
oregonian upheld these four MEM
bers Of the board and did so because
1t regarded them as honest and faith
full and as men who were being per-
secuted because they had worked for
gravity water for Pendleton. That
view is still held. Nevertheless, this
paper joins in the demand for thor
ough investigation SO as to show
whether our confidence was rightly or
wrongfully placed.
