Give Him Free Rein

The Weston Leader, an upstate newspaper of ex-
cellent repute among democrats land others, tool,
solemnly warns Goyernor-elect Pierce against
practice of the "sordid doctrine" of craftsmanship
in his administration. The Leader also says:
Mr.. Pierce was elected on tn etaxation issue, and not
with the idea on the part Of the voters that he ought to
remove republican Office holders in order to make room
for democrats, however deserving. Incompetents should
be weeded out, if any there are; but capable republican
officials should not be-and we believe will not be dis
charged for purely partisan reasons. There are hun
governors disposal. He will have to disappoint most of
them, and may as well d~isappoint them ali.
Since more republicans (actual and nomina)
voted for Mr.. Pierce than democrats il is difficult
to see how he is to distribute the leaves and fishes
without due consideration Of the sources of his VIC
tory. On that basis there are fewer deserving DEM
ocrats than deserving republicans.
But we venture on our own account a word Of
advice to the governor-elect. If he can find DEM
ocrat more competent 1--WE eliminate the "desery-
ing') than a republican incumbent, give him the
Job. The public service deserves first considera-
ton; the fortunes OF party are second.
We exclude from merited application of the ex-
ecutiye AK the rank and file of stae employees;
and refer only to the heads Of bureaus and depart
ments. If the governor knows of any outsiders
who can and will do better work for his admins
tration than the insiders, he should call them to
the public service. They are needed.-Oregonian.

Think Of having a daily expense
Of $500 or more and no prospect Of
IN income for several months, That
is the condition Of large sheep op-
orators. The expense to the small
operators is in proportion. "A Sheep"
exclaimed a woolgrower yesterday,
"eats about three pounds a day. A
band of sheep--say 1000 head--eon-
sumes three tons of hay a day, and
hay, in the stack, is $40. There are
many men who have 10000 sheep,
which means, that they will feed
$500 worth of hay daily. In addition
it costs Sl.50 a ton to cut the hay
and about another dollar a ton to
feed it. This represents approximate
ly $3.50 a ton, or 1915 a day. Now
consider that the sheep hav to be fed
according to the season, anywhere
from 80 to 100 days, meaning from
$4,000 to $4,000. A sheep man can
not carry himself, so he has to have
credit and lots of it. The country
banks, even the large ones, cannot
provide the accommodation, so the
sheep men must do the business with
the big banks of the cities or with
loan companies. "-oregonian.
"There was a warm wind when l

Let's Have Fair Play

A private letter received by a local man from a
friend in New York inquired into conditions in Ore
gon and asked if this state had become a political
mad house." He had evidently formed such an
impression from reading Governor Olcott's vehem-
ent speeches and from reading extracts from GER
tain newspapers that supported Mr.. Olcott during
the recent campaign.
1t is unfortunate that Oregon has received such
advertising but simple fairness requires the state
ment that the damage is being caused by the anti
khan forces rather than by the khan itself. Ben
Olcott has probably done more to discredit Oregon
than any other man in the state. His proclamation
issued during the primary campaign caused much
i'll feeling on the religious subject. His eastern
speeches have been misleading to the general pub
lie.
Oregon is alright and is not going to the bow
vows. Ii is a splendid state and has a highly in
t~elligent citizenship that thinks for itself. The po-
litical campaign is over and people generally are
forgetting the prejudices aroused thereby. The
problems ahead Of us require cooperation and this
may be had if people on both sides Of the religious
controversy act with simple fairness and courtesy
towards each other. What some people don't I'M
derstand is that the klansman as well as anyone
else is entitled TO bis views and is entitled to or
ganize for what he believes is good cause. They
are law abiding citizens as are their opponents and
aim TO stand for good Americanisn. This a by
stander's opinion. Let's have fair play all around
and there will be no trouble .-Pendleton East Or.

Reduce Musical Temperature
By RICHARD LLOYD JONES

We recently referred 10 an American musician
who because Of her splendid ability to play the
piano was warmly greeted BY music lovers across
the seas. Her fnterS we're educated TO tickle the
ivory but her head was so empty of musical intelli-
gence that she thought America shared nothing of
the highest culture, that to find favor she must con-
fine her performances TO foreign composers. Europe
itself rebuked her. She had to 90 abroad to learn
Americas worth.
The American may be a boastful bird; he may
svagger and strut about his inventive genius, about
his bulk production, about his manufacturing enter
prise and commercial Sagacity-all Of which juSti-
fy his boast. But his boast may well 60 farther.
Nowhere in all the world is so good a literature
being written as by American authors today. Ex-
cepting only the immortal Shakespeare, no land
has produced finer or undetermined poets than
America. New York is as good an AT center today
as Paris ever dreamed Of being.
Most of our art producers, which includes ouI
poets and philosophers and n~ovelists, our writers
cur architects, sculptors and painters, have arrived
at a full appreciation of this fact. But the must
clan has still much to learn. This is due to the
fact that too few of our musicians have a cultural
foundation.
That is why they speak in terms Of great mas
tiers" and talk of appearing before "crowneC
heads" dukes and lords, countesses and all of tht
fol-de-rol Of royal rubbish.
This simply means that such musicians, however
well they may MARBLE or vibrate the violin string.
have not touched the finest and highest of all ar
which is appreciation Of poetry and the understand
ing Of philosophy. When they do that they vii
consider it as fine a compliment to be privileged II
appear before a cultural Chicago audience as to b,
invited to the home Of some no-account Count.
The musician shows his ~illiteracy by having t
lift up appreciation of himself and covet apprecia
tion by advertising the great masters" he has com
in contact with and the crowns before whom h
has appeared.
The one thing that the musical-minded men an
women need most is more liberal education witt
which to grasp ideas, to reach understanding an
comprehension that they may go through life wit
a temperature that is modified by rationalcommol
sense.

1t was estimated by the large oil companies in
1921 that the average tourist in Oregon uses 100
gallons OF gasoline. Over 100000 cars visited Ore
gon in 1922. The average car travels Is miles to
the gallon of gas, so that the average tourist in
Oregon travelled 1900 miles in various directions,
proving that the tourist sees" the state.
In this connection it should be pointed out that
with a two cent tax on gas, Oregon benefited to
the amount of 100000 from this source alone, a
considerable item, considering that the states in
vestment in the development of tourist travel in
1922 was less than SIS, 900. The appropriation was
for $4,000, but the Pacific Northwest Tourist AS
ISOLATION spent only S22,50o approximately and
proSimately Sill 200.
II is estimated that the average tourist remains
in the state ten days (some say fourteen days. and
that tourists spent in Oregon this year over S10,-
100000 which was widely distributed throughout
the state, every man, woman and child in the state
receiving direct or indirect benefit from the expen-
diture Of this NEW money. The loss of even one
quarter of this income TO the state would be a ca
laHity.
Tourists are state builders. A careful survey in
dicates that forty per cent of the tourists who come
to the Pacific coast are looking for new locations,
on the land or in the cities or towns. California
has been builded upon tourist money, money that
has largely been expended in various lines of en-
deayor. The tourist dollar in California has been
converted into an industrial dollar.
Oregon has only come TO the front as a tourist
mecca within the past few years. Oregon's in
vestment in her tourist bureau and state exhibit
is the best she has ever made. The facts are in
controvertible.
