The Pendleton East Oregonian, published in the wool
growing district has the following to say on the subject
of prices "he Portland Oregonian in ignorance or in
extreme partisanship recently declared edtoriay that
wool was bringing low prices as compared with year
ago and laid the alleged trouble at the door of the new
tariff If that tory journal desires to discuss the subject
from the standpoint of the truth there is good opporun
ty to- do So The sale at Pilot Rock yesterday showed
prices much better than year ago. On secured basis
wool brought 10c per pound more than in 1914 and
tine wool five cents per pound 1t was very sub
Stanta advance for wool and good advance for
fine wool incidentally the prices are in excess of any
prices prevailing previously in eastern Oregon in modern
nes II is evident wool prices are strong regardless of
free wool and the situation is not due entey to the war
because the war demand is for coarse wool and there is
no war demand for fine wool"

GET A GODD REPUTATION"

The namby-pamby, milk-and-water negro" as Dr..
Booker T Washington describes him. "who doesn't want
to be white" is clog to his own race.
There is much in this that applies to more than the
negro. The white who doesn't accept his condition
in life and can't better is the most hopeless of pess-
msts.
DR.. Washingtons advice to the members of his race
frequently exceeds any ehnic application and may be
considered to advantage by men Of all races Take the
following excerpt from recent address:
Settle down and get identified with some one place
Then build up there regulations for sobrety and industry
If you can't find the right place in the city, go to small
town nearby get back to the SOIL At any rate settle
down and get hold of property and start oank
account You will soon find that your savings are grow
ing and that you growing faster and bigger than the
bank account"
This is sound advice for more than negroes reputa
tion for "sobriey and industry" is worth cutvang by
Of every race and thrift is virtue which knows
no color line.
The man who drifts about from place to place may
pick up talents denied to the who stays in one place.
but he seldom succeeds very we'll When the season of un
employment on it is the drfer who is the first to
be let go. The man with established reputation for
sobriety and industry is always the chosen man.
Such reputation is a more valuable asset than any
other man can possess whether he be in big business or
only an employee.
