Oregon Union Pacific New Faces, New Places, New Scenes Keep Down Monotony Compares it to the Farmer's Dally Chores. "There's a charm about railroad life." said an O. H K. conductor at the St George today, "that binds men to it, no matter how hard they strive to quit it I don't enjoy working at night, when I should be at home asleep, but if 1 should quit today. what could I do? "I am not familiar with any other business; my whole life is wrapped up in my work and If I were financial-1 ly able to embark in business for my- self. It is doubtful if I could be con tent. When I lay off for a week to rest and enjoy life at home, I get, lonesome. It seems that something Is going wrong if the call bjy don't wake me up about 2 o'cf""' lr the morning, with his cheerful knock on the front door. It is second nature! to work at night now and I dont mind It. Familiarity with Different Places. "One of the most enjoyable facts connected with the life of a railroad man is that he becomes familiar with different places, persons and sights. On the run between Pendleton and Portland, a man passes from one great country to another. In that 230 miles a person enjoys a change of scene and surrounding that is actu-l ally refreshing. Of course.- it be-( comes tiresome. All work Is monoto-' nous to a certain degree. But we seej a different set of faces before us each trip. Xew personalities corstantly come to light. Peculiar incidents and happennings enliven every trip "We find a new and stranee crowd in every car. Passengers of vastly dif ferent types pass before us every ' day. We see the world in a nutshell, and have a thousand laughable and enlivening incidents to break the ' monotony. I "Each trip to us is like a farmer going his rounds on the farm. Het feeds the pies, horses, cows and chickens; saws a few sticks of wood. If he happens to be In the right mind, drives a stray hog away from the feed yard and stops to. talk over the fence t wun every man who passes. We punch tickets, give information to' a dozen eager women and children.' keep track of train orders, remember 1 where our passengers get off at. and ' do the same thing over and over I again, day after day. I Yes, it is charming. But I would like to trade Jobs with some farmer!

Here's a song for the heroes the "cusses" so tough. Who popped their great whips when tne schooners set sail And sang their wild songs as their pipes they would puff While pounding alone on the Over land trail. Not a snap of their calloused old fin gers cared they For the dangers awaiting them out on the plains As they yelled at their bulls and went rolling away In the alkali dust of the slow-mov ing trains. Away throush the Iiilliiw of Mirher- Ing heat- Upheld by a courage that never enuld fail With a sneer for the peril they knew tney would meet While pounding alnn on the Ovpr- land troll The signal from scouts who were sleuthing ahead; The parking of wagons with panic- less haste: The wild savage yells that would waken the dead; The Indian sally defiantly faced. The battle, the flight of the reds in defeat; I Some graves over which the coyotes would wail: And on moved the train through the Hbimmenng heat That quivered and danced oh the Overland trail. Where now are the heroes who swung the gTeat whips That popped o'er the backs of the laboring bulls. Who chose not the language that roll ed from their lips When the wheels furrowed sand in the hardest of pulls? But few yet are dodging the Reaper's keen blade. Yet totter down life's ever-narrow ing vale- Yet linger and dream of the parts that they played While pounding along on the Over land trail. pig Our line of parlor goods has been selected with an eye to the beautiful ai well as the good Axmiuster and Smyrna rugs Buffet for the dining room Couch for the parlor Dresser for the bed room Easel for that nice picture Fine rocker for wife and hubby (jame boards for the long winter evenings Hall tree for that vacant space Iron beds in various colors Just set our fine chiffoniers Kitchen treasures and cupboards Ladies desks and bookcases Morris chairs and rockers Nice combination cases and china sets Odd parlor chairs and parlor 'suites pictures, wall pockets and hat racks Quartered oak side boards Rockers from 75c to $40 Stands, music cabinets and mirrors Tables for dining room and parlor Umbrella stands and hall seats Very nice lounges and Davenports lYHow rockers for old and young Xmas presents useful and pretty, all You want from a to ZZzzz M "-.fa We have a very fine line of Ladies Desks and the price; are right Come in early while the stock is complete, select a pretty, useful present for that dearonewho you know deserves it and we'll set it aside, attach a neat Xmas card and deliver it'as you may order Yours for a Merry Xmas and Happy New Year M.
