our country's resources.
Ate a Typographical in
vestigation BY the State En-
gineers; after all the routes
suggested by the different
sections received due inves-
tigation, they have reported
on the one most feasible for
the consideration of the Com
mission and they being sat-
isfied with the report of the
Engineers have ordered the
survsy over the river route.
This highway cannot pass
every mans door, and any
man who knows the topog-
raphy of the country can
see the route chosen by she
State Engineers is the one
that will have the advantage
in the matter of grade mile
age, eheapness OF eonstruc-
ton and service to the great
est number of citizens. and
the agricultural interests of
the interior of Eastern Ore
gon. That q few indiYiduals,
or even a small section of
this isolated region should
oppose the highway because
they happen to be a little to
one side of the pr opposed
route shows a selfishness
that will not be overlooked
by the number of people who
anticipate investing capital here
as soon as the development of
she country's resources are as
sured. For years we have, by
our poke easy methods and un-
concern for the future, driven
,apital from our door. We have
ooked with envy on the pros
,erity Of other sections and have
lenied ourselves the very means
hat would have brought a like
prosperity to US. We are glad
hat the people of this country
lave become aroused, and the
opportunity having been afforded
ire willing to grasp it and secure
N advantage denied our pioneer
when the state was
oung. II
Republicanism is not a person,

Ii is am andisputed fac
that the present system Of
road work In Wheeler CoWn-
ty has been little more than
TO keep them in repair SO
small loads and light rigs
might pass over them. Very
little permanent work has
! been done and the annual ex-
penditures have beer little
more than adequate to keep
the roads in repair from dam
age dome by waterspouts and
melting SHOWS. We have
said before in these columns,
as the population increases
new enterprises will spring
up, provided adequate trans
portatfon can be afforded SO
that our products can be
marketed. Advancement in
every branch of industry our
county can afford is now at
q standstilf because we are
isolated from the markets of
the oaptsides world. We are
sorry to. say in this connec-
tion that we have a few Aold

Trojan giant was the gamer, for he
forced the hand of every other en-
trant in the race. It is common be-
lief that the race would not have
averaged more than 80 to 81 miles
per hour unless De Palma, forcing
his car to the uttermost, had COM
PEELED the other prospective winners
to maintain what turned out to be
a ruinous pace for De Palma. There
was not one in the crowd but would
have given much to see him VIM not
one but was sorry to see him lose.
More cheers sang in his ears than
greeted the YictoTs.
Some day the jinx which pursues
De Palma will be OutdistanCed. With
the close of the season approaching
and opportunities to make up his
shattered A. A. A. standing growing
appreciabIy less, real motor fans yet
are willing to judge De Palma at
what he is: undoubtedly one of the
best, if not sthe best, driver on the
American motor track

COCHRAN'S COMMENT

HOYNE AND CUNNEA.-I have
no quarrel with my Socialist friends
who are strong for Guinea for
states attorney. Every man who
thinks Guinea is the best man for
the job and has a chance to win,
ought to vote for him. That is,
every man ought to vote his own con-
viction. That's as true of those who
think Miller would best suit them as
it is of those who prefer Guinea or
Hoyne. What is the best thing to do
is a matter of individual judgment.
My honest belief is that Hoyne, be-
cause of his record, is much strong
>er than he was four years ago. We
can't accuse him now, as we did
then, of being controlled by Hearst.
The truth is he hasn't been con-
trolled by any of the trust press. We
know, too, that he has not been hos
tile to labor, as we then feared he
would be. I said nothing about Cum
nea four years ago that 1 have to
take back. He is the same clean,
strong man he was then. To be

said against Hoyne then that 1 can't
say .now-althOugh was honest in
my belief at the time. I'm not ask
ing anybody to vote for any candi-
date. simply give my opinion,
which is that either Hoyne or Miller
will be elected, and that Hoyne is by
far the better man for the working
class that wants nothing from the
law but square deal
1 agree with Judge Hickman Scan
Ian in his estimate of Hoyne. At the
time Hoyne was discussed as an ar
bitrator in the street railway strike,
Judge Seaman said of HOyne: This
man is honest and above price. He
possesses courage of a high order.
Improper influence, no matter how
subtle, will not affect him."
Evil influences that have no love
for the working class are making a
desperate fight to defeat the states
attorney they have been unable to
use. With the light I have 1 consider it
my duty to the public to defend this
public official who has made good.
When 1 attempt to do anything for
the public good, must be governed
by my best judgment. So should
every. other citizen, whether he
agrees with me or not.

JACK DILLON MUST \. PUT M'COY OUT
 TO SECURE CREDIT

New York, Sept. 16-Just because Al Mccoy has consented to stand in front of Jack Dillon for ten rounds is no reason to think that the Brooklyn claimant of the middleweight title has lost his reason. Mccoy may never win a bout, but he has the original iron man backed off tn. boards when it comes to absorbing punishment. In his crude, awkward way he has stood off the assaults of all the middle weights who cared to try to seize his crown. Some of them could hit quite as hard as Dillon, for all the latter's s giant killing propensities.
 If this affair goes through it will show whether Dillon is great fight CT or merely a fair little man among a bunch of hopeless giant dubs Since every second rater who cared to make the attempt has shown that he could trim Mccoy on the point basis. it will be up to Dillon to stop him in order to gain any credit.
 The bout will be merely test of Dillon's hitting ability. There is no other reason for staging it, so that if Dillon fails to score he will lose as much prestige as if he had actually been defeated at the hands of boxer of his own division. 5y
