What about Japan building gun
boats for this country? Is It because
labor Is cheaper over there, or be
cause they have better skilled me-
chanlcB than wo?
Governor Geer may bo the oulj
avowed candidate Jot United States
senator, but he is by no means the
only one In the race. Besides those
generally spoken of there are a whole
lot of self-sacrificing fellows who hear
the faint buzzing of the bee way up
In the wrinkles of the .crown of theii
bonnets.
The teachers' Institute Is doing
good work. -The Instruction being
given at nil of the sessions is valua
ble and Interesting to everybody.
Such an opportunity will not be af
forded the people of Pendleton to im
prove themselves mentally again for
a long time, and every one who can,
should attend these sessions.
Minstrel shows are passing and In
a few more years they will be re
garded as among the antiquated
things that were, but still one can
not resist a hearty laugh at some
of the Jokes yet, even If they are a
little stale. The black cork artist of
today is as much a departure from
the minstrel of old as day Is from
night.
The people of different nationali
ties are coming closer together every
day in this country. In business, ed
ucation, labor and politics they mlnglu
together without thought of national
ity. Only the technical points or re
ligion now separate them. They
agree upon everything else but these.
Bverj' legitimate cause is a common
one, except they will not worship" together.
A war is to be waged against those
who attempt to celebrate -Halloween
tomorrow night. Still the boys will
have their fun. But they should bear
in mind the fact that If they do dam
age to others they should and will be
punished, if caught. Carrying the
matter too far only causes more vigi
lant watch over them next tlnie. In
nocent fun Is always In order but
permitting revenge or .personal spite
to enter into a matter always spoils
the best of fun.
And now to think of It! Wheat 60
cents and a-climblng! Who says It
Isn't coming the farmers' way? With
the miners winners in the strike, big
corn crops in the East and big wheat
crops and fat stock in the West, it
looks as if the man who makes his
living by manuel labor is coming to
the front all along the line. The re
publican purty Is great. The politic

l ow they did It. The republican

comes around they will all have

room, but there Is no necessity ot
booming Pendleton and Umatilla
county and begging for immigration
It may be reiterated time and again
thnt tho resources and opportunities
of this county do not have to be her
aided to tho sides. We do not have
to clamor for suckers or immigration,
and while we extend the welcome
hand to good people, wo do not desire
tho riff-raff that are often brought to
places by flaming advertlselug which
tells all Uie good and conceals the
bad. The boomer Is a fakir, a green
goods man, and ouly such places as
are In that business engage lu that
sort of advertising.
Tho following from a local paper, is
uncalled for: "But it Is almost use
less to undertake to stir up an agl
tatlou among the laboring class in
Pendleton. They always receive
what they isk for, and furthermore,
are gentlemen in the asking and there
is no cause for demagogues or aglta
tors in our midst." It Is true that
the laboring men of Pendleton are
all gentlemen, but It Is not true that
all of them receive what they ask
Some of them work long hours, not
because they like It, but because they
would rather do It than raise troublw
with their employers. They would
ratner wait until uie town grows
larger and the people are better edu
cated along tho lines of labor unions,
before they demand the rights usually
accorded union men where they are
stronger. The intimation that Mr.
Harry, the speaker Tuesday night at
the local laboring men's meeting, is
a demagogue or agitator, was uncall
ed for. He is an earnest, reasonable
advocate of the laboring man's rights
and said nothing beyond the legiti
mate discussion of the laboring man's
cause. It is the same old story of the
it-publican paper, however. They
never see anythlug but danger or
ilemagoguery in n meeting of the toll
ers to discuss their right and try to
improve their conditions.
