THE TWO KERNELS"
(From Oregon Exchanges.


Oregon newspaperdom is short on
colonels. When President Wilson
was in the state the 0regonian bre-
vetted, or knighted, or Commissioned
G. S. Jackson of the Oregon Journal,
who is now and hereafter to shine as
Colonel jackson. 1t should have
been done long ago. Mr.. jackson is
colonel by nature. Oregon Ex-
changes also recommends Mr.. Piper
for the colonelcy that old time news
papermen could not refrain from adj
miringly bestowing upon the honor
cd Harvey w. Scott. The colonel
shortage, however, is not much felt
in Eastern Oregon, where the two
most prominent colonies, erstwhile
mortal enemies-as kernels often are
Clark Wood of Weston and F. B.
Boyd of Athena, are going it half
and half, running the Athena Press.
Colonel Wood is editor and Colonel
Boyd manager, Wood having recent
ly bought half interest from Boyd.
Colonel Wood claims to be the Oldest
country editor in point of service in
Umatilla county and probably in
Eastern Oregon. He comedies sec
ond place to Colonel Boyd. @Wlonel
Boyd's claim had not been received
at the time of going to press, but he
probably has one, for Umatilla peo-
pie say the two kernels are nuts
from the: same bough. Colonel Wood
retains ownership of the Weston
Leader and will continue its publica-
tion, with Mrs. H. Goodwin serving
as assistant editor. Type for both
the Press and the Leader will be set
with new MerganthaIer linotype
bought by Boyd and Wood. This ma
chine is now being installed in the
Press Office.

A REAL PROBLEM

IL the people Of the State Of
Washington were TO pass in grand
review, says Whitman News Service
concerning problem Of real impor-
tance not in only in Washington but
in Oregon and other commonwcalths,
the line of march would contain
256,O00 individuals Of foreign birth.
II natives of foreign or mixed pa
rentage were added to these the
number would reach nearly one.half
million. Almost every second indi-
vidual of the whole population has
from so to 100 percent foreign blood
in his veins. OF the 256,000 foreign
born, 20 percent are not naturalized,
and they furnish 60 percent Of all
the illiterates in the state. The list
of foreign born illiterates is headed
by Franklin county with Is percent.
Next in order come Adams, Skaman-
ia, Walla Walla, Thurston and Lew
is counties, with percentages rang
ing from IS to 9.5.
The birth rate among these people
is very high and therefore it is sim-
ply a question of few years when
in. political way they will hold the
balance of power. That it is high
time they be made American citizens
is the quite understandable Whitman
College view.
"A group of Whitman students
is now making a study of the
foreign elements in Walla Walla
coanty. Every question Of social
and economic Importance concerning
these people is being considered. 1t
is hoped by friendly contact with
and first-hand knowledge of these
people to instruct them in the essen
tials Of good citizenship.
