V LURE OF WESTERN SEAS Wind of the West, with your cadence sweet. And your croon of the deep sea lands. You bid me go, and 'my restless feet Would stray to the distant strands. When the dusk of the night en shrouds the mart. And I hark to the ebb and flor Of the waste of sea, then with longing heart I'd go where the Cross hangs low. There's a ship in the bay with blistered sides. That has come from the lands afar; See! How she dips to the swell and rides With her nose to the harbor bar! Make way you lifeless sons of land, Who never sea can know The old man calls, for he wants a hand She's ready, and I must go! KEEP OREGOX IX THE LEAD. PLEASING THE PROGRESSIVES. If reports are to be credited the ad. ministration Is getting In shape for the fall elections. Just now the sails are belnb set to catch the progressive breezes. It is announced that from this time on the president is done with AUlrlch and Cannon and that even Ballinjer must go. ' Tliis is startliitg and it naturally gives rise to the impression that the president has listened to the voice of the strenuous one. So there are many who rejoice. Tot after all does the announce ment mean anything? Senator Aid rich has already declared his inten tion of retiring from the senate at the close of his present term. Speaker Cannon has always relied mostly up on his own resources or rather upon the resources of the Interests he rep resents. He needs little from the president As to Balllnger It has been generally believed for a long time that he will resign, when a favorabl9 time comes. So it may be that all these things were going to transpire anyway and this has led the political generals to utilize the opportunity to curry favor with the progressives. It is inconceivable that the presi dent Is really going back upon his "standpat" friends. Could he snub Senator Aldrlch whose tariff bill the president declared in his Winona speech to be the best bill ever passed? Will he really kick Ballinger out after having pronounced him blameless? Not likely, most people will say. It would be nearer right to say that the political press agent Is at work and he is trying to please the pro gressive west and middle west How ever we shall see what we shall see. "No. she had her mouth closed." "Then it wasn't my wife." v 'NEEDED A VACATION'. "My. what .are the folks in our church getting up a subscription for?" "To send our minister on a vacation to Europe this summer." "Won't there be no church services while he's gone?' "No. dear." "Ma. I got $1.33 in my bank. Can I give that?" Cleveland Leader. One morning Jenkins looked over his garden wall and said to his neigh bor: "Hey, what are you burying In that hole?" "Oh, he said, "I'm just replanting some of my seeds; that's all." "Seeds!" shouted Jenkins, angrily. "It looks more like one of my hens." "That's all right. The seeds are tnside." Christian Work and Evangelist. COLOR OF HER HOUSE. "Children," said the teacher, "after a house is built paint is put on, pri marily to protect it from the elements f the weather, and secondarily to beautify the structure by its color. "Xow. Mary, what Is the color of our house?" 'Black, ma'am." , 'Black? Was that sombre color our fathers Idea?" "No, ma'am." "Tour mother's?" "No, ma'am." "Surely, It wasn't of the children's choosing?" "Oh, no ma'am." "Then whose idea was it?" "Nobody's. We live next door to soft coal factory." TWENTY ACRES ENOUGH. An old negro was accustomed to pray in a loud voice each night, "Oh, Lord, please come, take po' old Pete home." Some mischievous boys thought that they would frighten him. Just as he ended his prayer one night they dragged a heavy log across the loose boards of his porch floor. 'Who dat?" In a scared voice from Peter. "De Lord come to take po' Peter home," answered one of the boys m a mournful voice. - "Peter don't live h'yar. He been moved three weeks." answered poor old Peter excitedly as he blew out the candle. In an editorial upon the subject "Popular Government" the Washing tin Herald of Washington, D. C, had the following reference to the direct electibn of senators and Oregon's plan of providing for the same. "Mr. Taft in one of his speeches in the last campaign, indicated, in a passing allusion to a then minor is sue, that he looked with favor upon the election of United States Sena tors by direct vote of the people. "It is an Issue that every state in the Union must meet, and it has such Important bearing upon popular gov ernment as a whole that it is decided ly national. "Many states, notably democratic states at the South there are few democratic states elsewhere choose their senators and their state offlcals as well by primary election. No state that has given a fair test to an honest primary law would voluntarily, return to the convention system, with the dis honest machine practices which It In vites and Involves. "One state, and one state only the republican state of, Oregon has at tained a complete form of popular government that excludes corruption. has destroyed machine politics, and is Immediately responsible to the peo ple's will. Oregon, leading the way, occupies today a unique and enviable position in the family of states. The reform movement begun some years ago, was stubbornly resisted, called socialistic in the extreme, and jeered at as impracticable and impossible of realization this side of the mlllennu lum. Now an accomplished fact, the state points to it with pride, and the country watches its successful oper ation with growing admiration." But If the assemblyltes have their way there will be little left of the Ore gon system of electing senators by di rect vote of the people. True the Portland assembly, out of policy did not openly denounce statement No. 1. Tet it is well known how the as sembly supporters view the statement. They hate the direct election of sena tors. It means political reform and the average assemblyite looks upon political reform with the same favor the devil does holy water. That the Irflunce of the assembly and the as semblyltes Is against the direct elec tion of senators is fully shown by the fact that assembly candidates for the legislature are refusing to take state ment No. 1. They are doing this In Umatilla county. In Multnomah county and elsewhere throughout the state. The election1 of assembly can dldates to the legislature means that the principle of electing senators by direct vote will be sacrificed. Elect an assembly legislature and the first thing the members will do will be to hold a wake and dance with glee ar ound the corpse of statement No. 1. If the people of Oregon want to It is said that Jasper Wilson, son of the secretary of agriculture, will come to the northwest to engage In farming. Also the story states that he will take but a 20 acre tract. He considers that enough for one man to farm. And 20 acres Is enough for one man to farm If the land is suitable to close farming. A man who handles a 20 acre Irrigated farm and works his place to the limit of Its capacity will have all he can do. There are men who keep very busy and make ex cellent livelihoods for themselves and families from ibut ten acre tracts. So if Mr. Wilson Jr., wishes to en gage in high grade agriculture he could no no better than to come to the northwest and secure a 20 acre ranch. ALFALFA IS PROFITABLE. Upon 200 acres of land near Her- miston the Newport company will produce 1000 tons of alfalfa this year, according the the East Oregonlan's correspondent at Hermlston. This hay will be worth $10,000 In the stack. Next year a crop of 1500 tons should be raised. It is estimated that the crop this year will net a profit of $40 per acre or ten per cent Inter est upon an Investment of $400 per acre. Is not this an object lesson for landowners who have farms that may be watered by using the flood waters of the Umatilla? By Irrigating their ranches with the flood waters they could raise an annual crop of alfalfa and so make interest on five times the present value of their land. Some day they are going to do it too. Secretary Ballinger says the pro ject extension Is up to the army en gineers. Very well. Here's hoping the army men will know a good pro Ject when they see It. Wonder if the people of the east get the same sort of "dope" that Is now coming westward? If this weather keeps op long It will not be long until Jokes about the coal trust will be In order. Umatilla county has no forest fires But we burn a thresher or a grain field occasionally. This is the day the. grouse suffer, THE PERFECT MAX. There is a man who never drinks Nor smokes, nor chews, nor swears; Who never gambles, never flirts And shuns all sinful snares He's paralyzed. There Is a man who never does Anything that Is not right; His wife can tell Just where he Is At morning, noon and night He's dead. "What Is an angel, mother?" asked a six-year-old. "Why, dear, It Is a beautiful lady with wings, who flies. But why d you ask?" "Because I heard father call my governess an angel." replied the little boy. "Oh!" said the mother. "Well, dear, you watch her, and you'll see her fly tomorrow." "I saw your wife on the street yes A Hint to Merchants.

But when the blood becomes Infected with any unhealthy humor the e.Tcct is shown by eruptions, boils, pimples, or some mors definitely marked skia disease lucu as Eczema, Acne, Tetter, ".t. Humors get into the blood usually, because of a sluggish condition of those' members whose duty it Is to collect and carry off the waste and refuse matter of tbe system. This unhealthy matter, left in the system, sours and fermonM and is soon ab sorbed into the circulation, filling the blood wit5 an Irritating humor. Remove these humors and the skin disease can not exist, because i s very cause is than destroyed. S. S. S. enres all humors of the blood because it is the greatest of all blood purifiers. It cleanses tho blood of every psrticle of unhealthy matter, enriches the circulation and causes it to supply healthful nourishment to all skin tissues. Then the skin becomes soft and clear.

Where could the child have gotten that Idea? Then she remembered that Shylock once said of Antonio, "How like a fawning publican he looks!" A friend of mine had Just returned from an extended southern trip. "How did they treat you in New Orleans?" I inquired. ' "All the time," he replied, smack ing his lips remlnlscently. A witness in a railroad case, asked to tell In hla own way how the acci dent happened, said: "Well, Ole and I was walking down the tr.U'k and the train went by, and I got back on the track, and I didn't see Ole; but I walked along and pret ty soon I seen Ole's hat. and I walked on, and seen one of Ole's legs, and then one side of Ole's head, and I says, 'Good heavens!
