It was not a business getting trip. It was made to urge a greater and more systematic exploitation of the resources of Umatilla county and to promote community, good fellow ship between the towns of Umatilla county and between Pendleton and Walla Walla. Assuredly those pur poses were accomplished. Where ever the junketing party went In this county yesterday the gos pel of more publicity was preached. People were told of the plans of the county publicity bureau and were urg ei to support that move. They prom ised to do so and if their assurances are to be taken at full face there can b-- no doubt of- the adoption of the plan. If that plan Is adopted and the v.'ork is carried on vigorously and systematically, as is intended, it will vef.rk for the closer settlement and de velopment of all sections of this Im perial country. It will result in the recolonization of the country districts and will make the towns of the coun ty bristle with new life and business. As for the cause of community good fellowship surely It was aided by the Junket trip. Yesterday was an oc casion upon which all communities could unite and they did unite. The Pendleton smile and the Pendleton handshake were everywhere received with favor. The courtesies extended the visiting delegation showed that the people of this part of the Inland empire are not nt-rrow or petty. They are broad and progressive people and are ready to Join hands in working for the general development and ad vancement of this God-favored por tion of the universe. Pendleton people who made the trip yesterday enjoyed their visit to the Garden City and to the towns along the line. They appreciated tha splendid manner In which they were -entertained at Walla Walla and at the various points within this county. Dome and se Pendleton, sometime. WOODROW WILSON'S VIEW. President "Woodrow Wilson of Princeton University made a speech before the local Princeton alumni ot Pittsburg recently that has startled all tho wan ghosts of the ancient cloisters, says the San Francisco Ex it miner. He also sent two hundred Fittsburg ers into a shiver of cold and forbid ding silence. President Wilson said that he had determined to spend his life In the democratizing of the university; that the endowed universities of America look fur tho support of the wealthy and neglect their opportunities to serve the people, and that the type of uni versity men that we are mainly pro ducing is a patron of privilege and "won't do." Incidentally the speaker admitted that the state universities are more democratic than those that depend up in endowments and the patronage of rich men. It is no answer to this indictment bigger education in America to say tl-at comparatively poor men are flecking to the universities every year n increasing numbers. The point is not that pilrr men are unable to get an education of a cer tain sor'. but that the teaching tends t.i become warped to suit the narrow ind illiberal notions of a privileged class. A system of education is" not made democratic by being made cheap. It would be possible to give every body a college education on a meal ticket basis whilst utterly destroy ing that democracy" of the arts and sciences for which Mr. Wilson is con tending. The truth is and Mr. Wilson does J well to emphasize it, even at the risk chilling the Pittsburgers and the I pedants that the real humanities and sciences are in their very nature dem ocratic and universal. As a culture' conceived in the interest of monopoly is a more conceit devoid of all ar t'stic and scientific validity. t'nder the patronage of monopolists the intellect of a race is sure to de cline ancj to precipiate itself at last r, social decadence and calamity. Mr. Wilson Is right in saying that intellectual "self-possession" is nec essary for safe guidance through the maze of our social problems. 'If America shall lose its self-po- Slon SO savq this hrnvp nnUoara ! Sf S p resident, "she will stagger like France I through fields of blood before she again finds peace and prosperity un- i"" me leuueranip 01 men wno under stand her needs." Hapuily there are multitudes of men and women in America, of more or less schooling, who understand Mr. I ii iisun s gnspei oi democracy quite as well as he does who understand that fin mug must oi- democratic in order to be sane. OX WITH THE RETREAT. It is understood that the county di visionists are already In retreat. Under the fire to which they have been subjected since they launched the ill-timed scheme for carving up this county they have decided to change their proposed boundary so as U leave Athena In Umatilla county ery well. But the entire Athena country as well as the town of Athena properly belongs in Umatilla county. So does the town of Weston and the country surrounding that place. None of the country south of Dry creek wants to secede from Umatilla county. It is doubtful if tbe majority of peo ple north of Dry creek favor division. The secessionists should continue their "crawfish" movement until they reach Blue Mountain station, or bet ter still they should keep going north ward until they make the northern boun'lary of Umatilla county one and the same with the state line, as It Is :t present. Nothing good can result from county division. "United we stand; divided we fall." In addressing the meeting at MU frn yesterday J. p. Neal, leader of the county division forces,, stated he was not a taxpayer of this county. Fatal admission. -'Neither is Mr. Neal a registered voter of this county, for he came to the state but a few months ago. Would It not be well for him to wait a few years before undertaking to revise the boundary lines of this grand old county? Umatilla county Is united by a chain of friendship that was strengthened yesterday and which will be hard to break. The publicity move Is fully launch ed. Now let us see that , the ship reaches port next November. Work and boost ,for the Eastern Oregon normal school. "All for one; one for all." Hunting the, Motive.

A romance of the universe was shattered in one sentence by E. W. Maunder of Greenwich Observatory at a meeting of the Royal Astronom ical society, says the London Express. Tie declared that there were no canals on Mars, that there were no Marl tlans, and that all the Interesting stories which have been written about the planet were simply so much sen sational fiction. S. A. Saunders first exhibited lantern slides showing new photographs of Mars taken by Prof essor Halo at the Mount Wilson Ob servatory, California, by moans of his 60-Inch telescope. "The canals are not shown," he ob served dryly. "The explanation I that the telescope was too strong to Indicate them!" The photographs are an enormous Improvement on any that have been previously taken," said Mr. Maunder, "and yet there Is no Indication on them of the spider like network. The explanation giv en by M. Antoniadi. director of the Mars section, is a satisfactory one. It Is that the supposed canals are the effect on the eye of congeries of dark spots. - There never was any real ground for supposing that we had in the making of Mars any evidence of artificial action. Had It not been that the Idea was a somewhat sensational one we would never have heard of It. and it Is the better for science that it has now been completely disposed of. You may sleep quietly in your beds without any fear of invasion from Mars." MFTVAL PROFIT SYSTEM. Coour d'AIeiio Indian Reservation Settlers' Ass'n Adopt Such. Spokane, Wash. Coeur d'Alene Indian Reservation Settlers' associa tion, of which William M. Masl, Jr., of Spokane, is president, Is planning to install electric power and telephone lines, establish schools and churches. build good roads and petition the gov ernment to open free rural mail routes for the 1200 homesteaders to be located on the reserve within six months. The association will also have a fund to assist its members. Arrangements Have already been completed to buy lumber for houses and barns, farming implements and tools, groceries and provisions and other necessities and sell them on a mutual profit system. It Is probable that a sawmill will be erected to fur- nish some of the timbers and other lumber needed. Donkey engines will be used in pulling stumps on the log ged off lands and a fire patrol will be organized to protect standing timber. The latter will work with the govern ment rangers. The Washington Water Power com pany of Spokane has several electric transmission lines through the reser vation to supply power to the mines in the Coeur d'Alene district and these can be tapped to supply elec trical energy to operate machinery. The telephone lines on the reserva tion will be connected with farmers' lines, thus affording conmunication with Tekoa, Coeur d'Alene, Spokane, Missoula and other cities and towns In eastern Washington, northern Ida ho and western Montana. "Probably there Is no similar farm ing community anywhere on this con tinent." said President Masl. "Our association has among its members one or more representatives of every state, territory and province in Am erica. Every political party and creed and many fraternal societies are rep resented and there are many crafts men and professionals. Including phy sicians and lawyers" IRISH WOMAN' DIES AT 110. .. Received Congratulations froni llio King: on Last Birthday. Dublin, Ireland. A wonderful old woman of 110, reputed to be the old est person In the kingdom, has died at the village of Carrickmore County Tyrone. She had been a widow for 89 years, after three month of mar ried life, and was always known by her maiden name Peggy McQuirk. Though bent with age she was re markably hardy and active, and until a few years ago used to go about In her bare feet In the summer time. Up to the time of her death she held the post 'of keeper to the local courthouse, though the duties had latterly been performed bv n deputy. In Novem ber last the king sent her two pounds and a congratulatory telegram. $200 In Her Storking. Trenton, N. J.

A great many people prefer to slide along the line of least resistance, to get along just as easily as they can. to paying the price In preparation for something better, says Orison Swett Marden in "Success Magazine." They are not willing to prepare themselves for a wider, larger place. They know that their education Is deficient, that they lack special training; and they know that they could manage, some how to repair therr deficiencies, but they luck the energy to do so. They prefer to slide along In an easy-going way, with the least trouble possible to themselves. How many wrecks, how many In complete and wretched lives we see everywhere because people did not think it worth while to prepare for much of a career! They thought they would get just a little education to help them along; Just enough for practical use. They did not think It worth while to dig down deep and ley broad foundations. They did not see life as a whole. Tiic reason why the lives of so many people are mean and stingy and Juice hss is because they put so little Into them, they make such n meager pre paration In education. In culture, in training, in thinking. Their harvest N small because they sow so little and Mich inferior seed. If the youth expects n rich, giftden harvest, he must prepare the soil, he must do sonic good sowing In the seedtime.

The fact that sunshine lessens as population be comes more dense, and especially when the activity of Industrial cen ters expands superficially and In creases In Intensity, hns long been noted, says the Chicago Tribune. An Increasing tendency to fog has also been observed, and both are effects of the Imperfect and Incomplete cttm bustion of coal. ! Modern industry pays toll for this in the Injury of delicate fabrics, the general depreciation In th- value f many articles of trade and househoW use, and the Increased cost of cleans ing. Since the battle Is waged with growing energy against tuberculosis, physicians and students of social sci ence feel that the problem of purer nlr for the dwellers In cities has be come primarily Important. Statistics have been collected for some time past. They demonstrate how little sunshine falls to the lot of the residents of Industrial cities even when the sun Is obscured by smoke particles. In no German city has the loss of sunshine, duo to fog. equaled that of London, where the foggy days during the three months. December.
