DEMONSTRATION CAR
HAS GOOD EXHIBIT

The methods of handling sheep
and wool to get the best results
as demonstrated in the wool car
which was in Condor Monday
was very interesting TO the sheep
men who were able to be present
and will be Of much value to them.
A large number of local people
visited the car also and were
surprised atthe manner in which
the Department Of Agriculture
and the Agriculture College have
worked out these demonstrations
for the benefit of the woolgrsw-
er. The methods shown were
obtained from practical tests and
this information is appreciated
by the sheepmen. Owing to the
bad weather it was impossible
for many to get here but those
who did come felt well repaid.
Forty nine attended the luncheon
which was served at the Summit
Hotel for the visiting woolerow-
ers and the local business men
and number of short talks made
it more enjoyable. Condor was
the first town on the itinerary OF
the wool car to entertain in this
way and the Condor Commercial
Club was heartily congratulated
on this account.

WASHDURN OF MILTON
SAYS HE WON FAIRLY

Editor Condor Globe,
Condor Oregon.
Dear Sir:
A copy Of your issue Of Feb
ruary 10Th, containing an article
signed by d W. Hammock has
come into my bands. Will you
do me the courtesy of allowing
me to give the facts regarding
the selection OF judges for the
Condon-Milton debate of Feb
ruary 10th?
Mr.. Hammack says: The Con.
don principal sent in his list Of
judges about the first Of Feb
ruary." His letter reached me
II | remember correctly on the
2nd, Of February or eight days
before the debate. He proposed
three men from Walla Walla as
had told him earlier that
we should like TO get men from
Walla Walla in order to keep
down expenses. rang these
men up ut once. Two Of them
thought they could come but
could not tell for certain so far
ahead, They said they would let
me know by the middle OF the
week. | could not get the third
man on the phone until several
days later but on Tuesday even
ing, February 9th. ! did get him
and found that he could not come.
Wednesday evening one of the
two men had got first rang up
and said that he could not come.
On Thursday morning, February
Sth. at $40 a m. | teleRraphed
Mr.. Hammack: Can get Mill,
Davis and MiIIspaugh or Simpson
of Whitman. Park will o. X
Wire if you disapprove." Mr.
Hammack did not wire any dis
approval nor did he express
while here the slightest dis
satisfaction with the way the
judges had been chosen. The two
whom he proposed and | failed
to get were Prof. w. D. Lyman
Of Whitman College and Marvin
Evans, vice president of the
Whitman College alumni associa-
tion. 1t would seem that Mr..
Hammack decided that Whitman
men were unsuitable judges after
he had lost the debate but not
before.
Mr.. Hammack continues: "The
Milton principal let the matter
rest until the evening of Febru
ary 9Th, one day before the de-
bate, making it impossible to re.
ject his and select others before
tha iipa cot for tha Jaka,a,b I
telegraphed Mr.. Hammack so
hours before the debate and fail
to see why he could not reject
the names / proposed and offer
others.
Mr.. Hammack continues: Tn
this way he was able to select
two of the judges himself and
he selected them from the school

LET THE WALLETS WORK.

The scarcity of labor will continue
to be felt until practical movement Of
| modifying availa BILE labor for the bene-
fit of the government is found. This Is
one of the great problems to be solved
|HAll that is done it seems unwise and
premature to change laws that have
been designed to protect the well be-
ing of workh,E-people.
President Goinbers of the American
Federation Of I.abof-stp a recent dis
cussion Of this matter sai1-that when
ever a general need Of labor Wnnld be
presented the union organiza tons t6iald
produce willing workers for government
work, though ne admitted that the task
would be somewhat difficult Of cx-
ecution. Having in mind, perhaps, the
mcnt he says: There has never been
in this country general comprehen-
sivc effort to give information of po-
sitions open or to enable workers out
Of employment to connect with avail
able positions. Until some sane. ration
al effort has been made and statistics
arc available showing that there is a
real scarcity OF workers throughout
the whole country. there is no basis
for the demand that hours of labor
should be increased in order to over
come the scarcity of workers"
Mr.. Gompers adds one important
suggestion which seems to us UNI
answerable. He calls upon the rich to
release the flunkies and Wallets and set
them to useful work. Just why an able
bodied man should have a body servant
or valet, when the country is at war
and labor is needed on the fields and
in factories is beyond the understand
ing of any sane man. This may also be
said in reference to ladies' maids. Let
these servitors out for real war work
these servitors out for real wor work
and thus conserve labor along with
