OREGON WHEAT YIELD
LOOKS GOOD TO COHEN

''As far as have seen on by pres
ent trip" says Hyman IL. Cohen, mar
ket editor of the oregon Journal of
Portland. Oregon will this season
have nothing whcatever to complain
of so fare as grain production is con-
cerned''
While there is generally reduced
area in grain this season, he says. the
prospects are sufficiently improved
over the normal to insure a very big
crop. This is true only of wheat.
Oats and barley crops will be some-
what curtailed from the normal be-
cause in both of these lines the acreage
Is greatly reduced.
Wheat growers will have no COM
plaint whatever regarding the prices
they will receive this season for there
is every prospect at this time that
prices will be as high. IL not slightly
higher than a year ago.
Contracting Resumed
Contracting has again been resumed
in some sections of the state but there
Is a great difference of opinion among
buyers as to what stock should bring.
This Is due to the fact that as vet there
Is practically no established market
for grain futures but with the reopen
ing of the trade on the various grain
exchanges of the country, this matter
will be quickly settled.
Because of the shortage in proba bic
production Of both oats and barley IL
is anticipated that unusually good
prices will rule this season in both oi
these grains.
Hay prices appear to have reached
the top and there is more indication
of lower values for the rest of the sea
son, than still higher ones.
Livestock shows good condition IN
the state generally The abundance of
rains has put the range in excellent
condition and is most sections the cat
tie are fatter than normal
Bags TO Sell Reasonable
wheat growers are now assured OF
getting their grain baks at proper
prices" concluded Mr.. Cohen. For a
time II looked as If the Japanese
British combine would force values to
almost prohibitive figures but the re-
cent agitation against the combine to-
gether with the financial stringency in
their stock for sale at more reasonable
figures than they had fondly expected
to secure" l..

COX AND NAN STAND ADAMANT AS DEMOCRATIC COFW WAR RESUMES
MR.. PENDLET0NIAN HAS
RECENTLY CONSUMED 81
MILES OF GRIDDLERS


Pendletonians in the past two
and a half years have consumed
from the output of one local eat
ing place enough hotcakes to make
chain 81 miles long. if placed
end to end. The actual number Of
hot cakes consumed is 1.15O. 900.
j. r. Lou Pinson, manager of
the Office Lunch, estimates that
he has baked and sold that num-
Der since coming to Pendleton.
Figuring five inches as the di-
ameter of his hot axes. Mr.. PIN
son could place them end to end
every inch of the way from PEN
dleton to Canyon City, in Grant
County. The mass Of hot cake
batter which mas gone to make up
these cakes would total approx
mately 1875 gallons, or one and
half times enough to fill the
tender of the O.-W. r. & y. COM
pany's largest locomotives.
In feeding the hungry public
with hot cakes. the average week
ly flour consumption is six sacks
or a barrel and a half of flour.
Mr.. Pinson says. One sack makes
1900 cakes. so each week between
5000 and 10000 cakes are con-
sumed. The largest days sale was
last Round-Up when 36 gallons.
or 2SS0 cakes, were passed over
the counter.
For the past Is years Mr.. Pin
son has specialized on cakes, but
he SAYS that no place consumed
as many as Pendleton. In order
to keep up with the growing ap-
petite of hot cakes, a new griddle
has just been installed. which will
cook As cakes at time. This is
the largest single plate hot cake
griddle in the northwest, he says.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 5.--"Mc-

AUDITORIUM. July 5.-The demo-

going into extra innings. beIligerently
determined to resume the battle OF
ballots where the delegates left off
after the twenty-second ballot Satur-
day night.

were even rumors that the delegates.

the entire amount should 1t go to the

would be voting for the attorney gem

A report was circulated last night
that Senator Glass had released the
Virginia delegation. Glass vehement-

Look to Cummings.
Cummings is popularity supposed to
hold the key to the deadlock. Many
politicians believed a word from him
would break the impasse. He has re.
fused to positively give any indication
regarding his personal preference due
to his position as national chairman.
1t is not considered an impossibiIity
that Cummings himself will be
brought forward as compromise. He

that he is "a lifelong democrat OF

voting. the national committee had an
extra set of ballots printed. 1t was
learned. This indicates that officials

Keeping Up Its Record

| Out of forty-seven Florida cities
and towns reportered so far by the
census bureau forty-five nave shown
an increase. The five that failed TO
grow are Jasper, White Springs, Lake
City, Greenville and Lee-all of
which are in the northern part of the
state.
The cities and towns of south Flor
ida have shown increases ranging
from the 440.1 per cent of Miami,
and the 248.S per cent of st. Peters
burg down to a lesser figures, but the
increases is in them all.
The Tribune has pointed out that
this difference between the two parts
Of &C the state can be due to no other
one thing so much as to the fact that
south Florida believes in doing things
and telling about it, while the rest
of the state, save Duval county, be-
lieves that ''all things come to him
that waits" and "if the ravens fed
Elijah, how much more will they feed
me, oh, you of little faith?" and all
that.
The Pensacola Journal sees now
that west Florida and north Florida
must go after the things it wants,
and tells its readers:
Everyone of the cities in Florida
which has made notable increase in
population has worked out a well-sys-
tematiZed method of publicity. Mi
ami spends thousands of dollars each
year, not only extensively advertising
Its resources, but paying for many
public entertainments planned for the
pleasure of tourists during the winter

Pensacola is one of the fcw cities
of any size in the state that pays no
attention whatsoever to ADVERTISING
its resources. Except for the gratu-
-ious publicity given this city by the
newspapers and by correspondents,
Pensacola is practically unadver-
Used, except for that advertising
which comes to it through the chan

Important Decision,

Now that the supreme court has
adjourned for its summer vacation
aid is not in session, it might not be
considered in contempt to state thai
its decision, rendered just prior tC
the recess, holding that the town OF
Panama City cannot stop street
| speaking is far-reacning and calcu-
lated to result in much damage.
Few opinions of more importance
have been written by the supreme
court of Florida. One speaker on
the plaza of st. Augustine can do
mora harm than the city government
and the better people of the town
combined can correct in five years.
The spread of Bolshevism has been
effected by means of the soap-box
orator and the propaganda he
spreads.
st. Augustine, for years, has reg
ulated public speaking in the plal r,
although there is nothing in the pre-
sent charter, and there was no pro-
vision in the old enc, concerning the
matter. The Evening Record trusts
the city manager will continue to reg
ulate speaking on the streets of this
city. If performance in a theatre
is obscene or the words uttered by
the comedian are suggestive or pro-
fame, the city authorities have the
right to stop the soy; and the Red
teachings of the Bolshevik prcpa-
gandists for the establishment of
SOVIET in America are far more dang
e-'ous than the vulgar theatrical.
Certainly a city has power to reg
ulate public speaking in its streets.
AS Harry Floyd told Judge Malone,
I'VE did not the law till your
honor changed it," We have the
highest regard for Florida's supreme
court and the personnel of the JUS
tees would be hard to improve upon,
but the recent memorandum decis-
ion, in lieu of 4 written opinion, Oh
a matter that involved the very tax
system of the city of St. Augustine,
followed by the ruling that city
may not regulate public speaking on
its streets, recalls the statement of
the Irishman who declared the court
couldn't hold him in any more con-
tempt than he held the court. st

Hopeful Signs of the Times.

A rapidly increasing supply Of
raw sugar in the United States is re-
sulting in a gradual reduction of the
price of sugar at the grocery store
and 20-cent level is said to be in
sight. A bountiful crop, added to an
ply, is causing wheat and flour quo
tations to drop. Leather is accum-
ulating in a stagnant market, and
some of the Pennsylvania
tanneries are shutting down, partly at
least, and production is being curtail-
cd generally all over the country, it
is confidently believed that when the
shoe industry starts again it will be
with lower prices for raw material
which should make possible a reduc-
ton in the price of the manufactured
article.
There are many signs abroad to
indicate that the peak of high prices
has been reached, and that the con-
tinued production of the natural re-
sources of the country will cooper
ate steadily toward a further reduc-
ton which, while it may not reach
the pre-war level-Gnd in fact is not
likely to for some years to come
will afford a material relief in the
struggle against the high cost of liv-
ing.
Corners, big and little, may be ma
nipulated for time, but they cannot
permanently resist the natural pro-
ducing power of tie country which
sooner or later asserts itself against
artificial restraints. - Philadelphia
