Summer Is the season that is pleasln -to my soul, When Thunder's on a picnic and flashing of his roll; When the birds are gallivantin' 'round the ripple o' the rills, With the juice of ripe black berries a-makin' red their bills. Lay me on a river bank. Any time ? day. The dreams for my compan ions And the world can roll .away. Of course, old Winter's jolly. though the sky has lost . its blue - And the icy angels yonder fling the snowballs down to you with the rustle ln the pines, And the sun a-burnlng . beauty in the honeysuckle vines. Then It -lay me on a river bank, 4) ' Just any time o' day, ; And the cows may clip the clover, And the world may roll away. Frank L. Stanton, in Atlanta Constitution. FOLLOW OREGON. Complaining of the usual method j of electing senators In the United i States a leading San Francisco paper has the following: "Compared to the United States Senate, the House of Lords of Eng land Is a popular body. "Under our system of choosing members of the upper branch of Con i gress, that body Is farther removed from the people than is the upper , chamber of the English Parliament. I "Instead of obeying public opinion, i the United States Senate has been tv, - . . . . t At the Commercial club managers conducting itself on the theory that ' ,,, ..... j . , .

"United States Senators, elected by thevarlou. State Legislatures, are be- yond the reach of the people.

Require leg islators to pledge themselves to elect the peoples choice for senator, as Oregon does under statement No. 1. This Is the logical solution of " the problem. The plan has worked with satisfaction here and It Is going to bf retained despite the fact that state ment No 1 is displeasing to the old time bosses and to rlngsters who play politics for what they can pick up and not for the public Interest. IlETTER WAIT AWHILE. Loui Winter, resident of the Free water country for 24 years, does not want to see Umatilla county divided. Though he lives near the state line and Is as far as anyone- from Pendle ton he would not sign the petition calling for a vote on "Orchard" county. In the county division scheme Mr. Winters sees nothing good for farm ers like himself it Is a scheme that may benefit Milton but for the Mll-tc-n-Freewater farmers It merelv means higher taxes. So he wants none of it. Nor is Mr. Winters the only man up there who opposes division. The East Oregonian knows of many who share his views. Some of those men are ver prominent and have been prominent for years in that section. Why not withhold the county di vision move until the people up there become more unanimous In their de sire for division? THE CONCERTS WILL HELP. .

Clark Wood, editor of the Weston Leader, Is firm In the belief that good roads will never be provided until the county Is ready to bond Itself in order to -build permanent highways. He recommends that at the good roads meeting to be held here May 21 j this proposition be considered. The state grange also favors this ! bonding plan. At the'annual gather- lng Just held at Oregon City a resolu j tlon was passed advising the con struction of roads with money to be t raised from bond sales. Why not discuss the bonding plan at the coming good roads meeting? "SUMMERFALLOWIXG.1 i here and hear the eagle scream. , A nearDjr exchangft evidently in a ;jocuIar mood iniugeB ln remark.

(Athena Press It Is a question whether the plan to hold a mass meeting to discuss county division, as proposed by Judge Lowell and S. P. Wilson, would do any material good. The proposition Is the same as It has been for twenty years. Milton wants the county di vided and outside that locality no one else does. She comes seeking terri tory that is unwilling to accede her demands and always has been. She has signally failed in the past to draw Athena and Weston Into her Imaginary boundary lines for a new county and she expects nothing but opposition from them now, hence nothing could be gained by her entering on public discussions of selfish desires. Outside of the Milton-Freewater district, the dlvisionlsts are -counting on support from the state at large In their un just contention that Athena and West on territory, would be better served In the confines of the proposed coun ty. Thus in the possibility of secur ing assistance by invoking the aid of votes throughout the state, Milton dl visionlsts are keen to override the 'wishes of Athena and Weston and will make a supreme effort to secure the sufficient number of names required to get her scheme to a vote. She has selected her boundary lines and will conduct .her fight for them. She has flung down the gauntlet and it is up to Umatilla county to provide meth ods of educating the voters of the state as to the true status of the di vision question. The dlvisionlsts aVe In the fight to stay and Athena and Weston are radically opposed to be ing dragged into a division of terri tory which would tuck an embryo county seat four miles from the Wash ington state line and perpetrate an unjust burden of taxation. CONCLUSIVE PROOF. A certain captain in the army was summoned by his colonel to answer a charge of assault preferred against him by "a sentry, who had stated thlat the officer had used him pretty rough ly one evening at the Vate of the har- , racks. A humorous phase of the affair was that the officer apparently had no recollection of the alleged assault. The sentry had made so bold as to declare that the officer was Intoxicated. Among those questioned was the captain's orderly, an Irishman, who protested vigorously that the allega tion of the sentry was a slander that he was sure the captain was perfectly sober the evening of the alleged as sault. "Why are you so sure that Captain Blank was sober that evening?" he was asked. "Did he speak to you upon his return to his quarters?" 1 "He did. sir." "What did he say?" "He told me to be sure an' call him early in the mornln, sir." "And did the captain say why he wo to be called early?" "Tis, sir, he did, sir. He said he was goin' to be Queen o the May, sir," responded the orderly with convincing gravity. .MADE THINGS REAL. Among the recent appreciations of Mark Twain it was said that he used "humor to make things real, Instead of employing it, as many writers do, to make matters appear more gro tesquely improbable than they are by nature." An illustration of this oc curred In Boston several years ago. A clergyman preparing for a tour of the East, and especially of the Holy Land, read a number of books of travel and description relating to that part of the world. When he" returned after a protracted tour he was asked which of the authorities consulted had been of most service to him. He promptly replied: "Innocents AbroadV Beneath the author's whimsical Im agery there had been a faithful ad herence to facts, with the added value of true color and atmosphere which his Imagination could always be de pended upon to furnish.
