IX T1IK LA X O Or CONTEXT In the Lan.l of Content all the goals have been won, And nothing remains to In spire a dream; The (treat and the beautiful things have been done. And life is as smooth as an untroubled stream. It quietly flows, whither no body knows. The fires of ambition are uuk iu-c.1 and i.tu;, And the voice of achievement is stilled on the heights In the Lan.l of Content. In the lj nl of Content they're I I i l i I all sitting around: It's pleasant, of course, but they frequently sigh To think of the halcyon days when they found True happiness seeking to clamber so high. Vou know to be sure you do everyone does It's only the trying by com mon consent And they know very well where their happiness was In the I,'ind of Content. St. Louis Dispatch. ! i AX ILL-ADVISED MOVE. If reports are true some busy gen tlemen up in the east end are agitat lng the erection of a new county out of the northeastern part of Umatilla. Just why they are taking such action seems hard to understand. Though Umatilla is a large county 1 is fortunate in having the county stat located almost exactly In the center. Pendleton is easily accessible from every portion of this county and therefore the present arrangement is convenient for all concerned. The east end country has especially good railway service into and out of this city. The O. R. & X. company main tains both a morning and evening ser vice both ways. So jt cannot be just ly complained that it is difficult for the people of the east end to reach Pendleton. From a standpoint of taxation cer tainly the present condition of affairs Is far preferable to the proposed plan foi two counties. Umatilla county is a great county and It has an assessed raluation of $40.0"0.nnn. Because of this great valuation it is in good fi nancial condition. The county Is out of debt and the county tax levy Is not high. . Should the east enders succeed in havlne a new county created their county levy would necessarily be far higher than what they are now pay ing. This because that section alone would be paying for the maintenance of a county government, with Its corps of officials, whereas at present those people have to bear but a por tion of such an expense. Surely when the people of the east end consider these features and some other features in connection with county division they will not be eager ! baentminded. It was his custom to to h ave ..'.i M-titer Umatilla. Thi'a" '"" ea,'h "'rn.ing before the will find that the present move is Ill advised and will be willing; to lei the matter drop. LAWYERS FOR JURORS? Judge E. H. Sullivan, dean of the Spokane county superior court, does rot like the pr.-ent Jury system. He would only have lawyers for jurors and would have them elected regular ly by the people, or else appointed by the courts. He would have them paid regular salaries and In trial cas es would have six Jurors or five in stead of 12. Here are some of Judge Sullivan's reasons for wanting the change: "Under the present system we select Jury composed of good business men, farmers and laboring men. They are honest and levelheaded as a rule and re here to uphold the advance of our laws; but what do they know about the real meanings or phrases In the law T We ask a Judge who has prob ably spent 30 or 40 years In studying the law and watching Its development to write in a few hundred words th Instructions, which, In a great part is so much Greek to the average Jury man. That part of the system Is radi cally wrong. "Another thing ia the average bus iness or professional man or even u laborer has not the time or incll nation to devote to this branch of ser vice, and as a result some of the cas- is presented for adjudication are not given the attention they should have. It Is also true that a lawyer who Is sure of his legal right and his facts would much rather trust his case to a judge, while If he Is not certain he prefers taking chances with a jury," Possibly there is some merit In Judge Sullivan's scheme. But of .iur.se his plan will not be adopted. The cange would be very radical. Why not allow juries to be selected and constituted as at present hut provide that three fourths of the jury may de li rniine the verdict? ikvi:mi the coi nty first. This is an exceedingly poor time for any portion of this county to talk di vision. There is too much work to be d. ne requiring the united efforts of the people of this county. With the lit avy westward colonist movement that is now on and which seems des tined to .continue for several years I'matiila county should be making efforts to attract her share of the new comnrs. Some consistent and effec tive publicity work should be carried n. Along this line the Pendleton Commercial association has already started a movement looking to the v ting of a half mill county tax for publicity purposes. With the large assessed valuation of this county such a tax will raise sufficient money to do great work towards the colonization of the county and especially of the ir rigated regions. Since that move was .started several months ago it has met I with general favor and has good I nadirs yi uuoixiuii inis ran. wtty ) chances of adoption this fall. ' not devote present energies to the f ur- jther development and settlement of this county and hold county division j problems for future consideration T It has long been boasted by many ' southern Idaho people that they had! a land board that handled Carey act projects in such a way as to allow the promoters to make a profit, from their fork. From the disclosures JuRt i made it is evident that the land board has been making some money too. About $2500 per. Only two more days now remain for the taking of the census. If you have not been counted' or know of others who have been missed make the fact known. If you cannot reach an enu merator notify some member of the Commercial club and he will look a'ter your case. . As a result of the dog crusade many obnoxious canines win be got ten rid of and there are few who will rc-gret the fact. There were too many dogs. However the dog catcher is the man to do the work. There Is no ex cuse for the amateur dog poisoner. Make your plans for the big Junket ting trip next Wednesday to Adams, Athena. Weston, -Milton, Freewater and Walla Walla.

Life's still goln' like a railroad train, An' you dunno how to get out of the hurricane an' rain, An' you're howlin' on the hilltop, an' you're growlin' on the plain. An Jordan's still the rocky road to travel! Life's still goin' like a lightning flash, An' you dunno how to beat it. when you're cuttin" of a dash. You're hitched up In the harness, and it's Satan has the lash, An' Jordan's still the rocky road to travel! IMAGINARY VISION. The professor of one of our West tern colleges was noted for being very lecture. One morning, after calllne a name to which there was no re sponse, he looked up. uI peering over his spectacles asked sharply: "Who is the absent boy in the va cant chair I see before me?" A Neighborly Precaution. The new clerk at the drug store re turned the prescription to the old cus tomer with a request that he wait till the boss returned. "But why can't you fill it out?" "I could If you was a stranger, but I ain't toflll 'em for folks that lives about here." From "Success Maga zine." Every-day Latin, "The first claas In Latin will please come to order," announced tho teach er. "Tommy, will you please construe the word 'restaurant' T" "Res: things; taurus: a bull," re sponded Tommy; "bully things." From "Success Magazine." The small boy backed up against the cool brick wall and panted heav ily. "Teacher licked you awful hard, didn't she, Jim?" said the sympathet ic chum. "You bet she did," replied the vic tim. "She never licked me so hard be fore. She thought I had my geogerfy in my pants an' I didn't Cleveland ,Plalndealer., THE SI HEN SONG.

Open air reli gious services held nightly during the week hv fiv workers of the T.ntto" ' Day Saints of the Mormon church, Josephite branch, which have become obnoxious In certain sections of the business district, reached a climax Sunday night when the missionaries were greeted with a volley of eggs, thrown from the roof of the Bollinger Hotel. Complaint had been made to the police several days ago that guests of the Bollinger were disturbed and Chief of Police Masters ordered the missionaries to" go to some other sec tion of the city. They made their appearance again Sunday night be cause of the large Sunday night crowd seated in front of the hotel. Chief Masters asked them to leave, but they claimed to have permission from Mayor Tweedy to hold street meetings. Becoming incensed, guests' at the hotel secured a quantity of eggs and began the bombardment, some of the eggs striking the male members of the party. Following the volley of eggs the revivalists made their departure. ii iiioor niunie.-, Funnel . Galveston, Tex. "If the farmers would bring the price of cattle and hogs down to reasonable figures there would be no cry of the high cost of living." remarked J. Ogden Armour, the Chicago packer, who Is sojourn ing in Texas. : "Complaint is made of meat and other combinations by packers and others, when, as a matter of fact, the farmers and stock raisers control the market and are organized Into unions and leagues and are starving the peo ple. The packers would cut prices In half, if the stock raisers and farmers would sell cattle and hogs at reason able profits. m "Nobody appears to realize that the farmers have organized and combined in this and are putting the prices of meat up to their own figures. The packing houses do not raise beeves and sheep and hogs, but buy them and pay the prices the farmers' trust puts upon them."
