WHY THEY' SMOKE. LLSSOME LASSIES. It's nice to have an easy chair. With a broad arm on which to lean. In which to sit and ramble through A high class ladles' magazine. It's nice to scan the fashioned things, The ta'.l and lissome ladies wear. The furbelows and thingumbobs, The gowns that cling and gowns that flare. The pictured maids are passing sweet. Their lips seem bubbling into song. But they're so far from head to feet No living maids were e'er so long! Now in the ladies' magazine i Gifford Pinchot spoke to the point j at the St. Paul conservation congress when he said: j During the first part of the agita-l tion for conservation, conservation ' met with little opposition for it inter- I fered with no man's private profit. From the beginning of the world the j preaching of righteousness In general I terms has been contemplated with en tire equanimity by men who rise in violent protest when their own par- j ticular privilege, graft or advantage comes into question. "Conservation has now passed Into the stage of a practical fighting at tempt to get things done. It has be gun to step on the toes of the bene ficiaries and prospective beneficiar ies of unjust privilege. The resulting opposition, considering the quarters when it comes, is one of the best proofs that conservation is a live movement for the public good." It is certainly a fact that most of the opposition to conservation of the effective variety Is from sources that are affected as indicated above. The power grabbers, the coal grabbers and the timber barons are the men Who dislike Pinchotism and are trying to make it unpopular. They are trying to make out that Pinchot conservation retards settlement and hurts the small man. But that plea is so farcical a to be amusing. Pinchotism is not hurting the small man and if it did the "Morganheims" would not care a tinker's dam. On the other hand Pin chotism Is interfering with the schemes of syndicates that are after tl.e coal, water power and timber re sources of the country- That is why they are up In protest. THEY WILL PAY IT. At this time raw land under the Umatilla project Is selling at prices They are a most bewitching ! ranging from $100 per acre up to $200 host, But if we met one on the street We'd shriek and thing it was a ghost. or $300. Then In addition the settler must pay the government $60 per acre for reclaiming the land. These prlc- "I wonder why men smoke tobac co?" asked the professor, gravely bit ing the end of a South Carolina cher oot. "Because they like It. I suppose," r.-imented the student. "But so do they like green onions, and yet you don't see men going around with onions in their pockets, chewing them at their desks or offer ing them to their friends." "But onions are odorous. Besides, it is customary for people to -eat at meal times and smoke " "At all times. And as far as odor U concerned, take some of these pipes and cigarettes for example. No, you can't explain It by logic. There is no reason. It is one of those things that just happened. Some old Indian chief, probably, thought he would do a med icine dance with some fire in his mouth, happened upon a bit of to bacco weed, made a great hit with the tribe, was gloriously sick In the pri vacy of his tepee, resolved he would take In some one else, did so, that some one else took in another, and so on, just from the human tendency to spite your neighbor, smoking be gan." "And the established habit of tell ing youth he musn't smoke has push ed it along." "Probably. If every boy was of fered a box of cigars as a matter of course on his 16th birthday I wager the tobacco trust would go into the cotton business." "Still they say tobacco Is soothing." "Tobacco Is soothing to one man and stimulating to another. Do you know, come to think. about it, I be lieve men smoke tobacco for the same reason they chew straws or whittle sticks for something to do. Yes, sir, I believe that's lt,'! and leaning back In his chair with a satisfied smile the professor blew a ring of smoke to ward the ceiling. Selected. 9228 A SLIGHT MISTAKE, Houston Post. I es prevail because people have con- I SUPPORT JUDGE DIMICK. As the primary campaign progress es the anti-assembly forces are being united in support of Judge Grant B. Dimick's candidacy for governor. It is plain that he is the chief opponent Of Bowerman and being such he should receive the united and cordial support of the direct primary men. It would be the heigh th of folly for the direct primary men to scatter their vctes among three different candidates While the machine element is united for their slated candidate, Bowerman. Mothing would please the assembly crowd more than to see the opposition divided over several candidates. They would do much and have tried to do much towards bringing about such di vision on the part of the opposition. 6o one familiar with campaign tactics Can deny that Abraham and Hofer have received their chief aid and com fort from the assemblyites and the as sembly organs, such as the Portland Oregonlan. A boost for Hofer or for Abraham is a boost for Bowerman be cause votes that go to Hofer or Abra ham cannot be cast for Judge Dimick Who is the man the machine men fear. It is the belief of the East Oregon Ian, though, that Abraham and Hofer WHI detract but slightly from Judge Dimick's strength. Abraham is a can didate who stands for nothing In par ticular. He is scarcely known out side his own town and will draw bare ly enough votes to be counted. Hofer it making a spectacular campaign and Is getting much advertising from the assembly men and assembly papers. Cut he Is not a serious candidate. His reputation is against him and there would be nothing to his candidacy were it not for the aid he is getting from the assembly side. Judge Dimick's record, on the oth er hand, is such aa to make him ad mired and respected by those who know him. He has twice served as mayor of Oregon City and he has been Judge of Clackamas county. In re turn for those political honors he has given his people good and faithful ser vice. He Is known as a man with a Clean and open record. He Is a man Of good ability and high purposes. One Of his chief characteristics Is a de termination to accomplish what he f-ts out to do a characteristic that fits well upon a candidate who like Judge Dimick has espoused the cause of the people of this state. As matters now stand nominations for the republican candidacy for gov ernor are closed and the race is be tween the four men named above. Be ing an earnest advocate of the direct primary law the East Oregonlan de sires to see the direct primary candi date win and the assembly nominee lose out Therefore this paper urges upon the people of Umatilla county and of eastern Oregon that they unite In support of Judge Dimick. He is far and away the strongest of the men opposing Bowerman and if he receive the united support of the direct prl- fidence that within a few years the land will be doubled or trebled in val ue. Get the Hermlston valley to pro ducing fruit and get the farms well improved and the price of land per acre will be $1000 or $1500. In view of these facts It will be re markable if the government hesi tates to extend the Umatilla project through fear that settlers will not be able to pay $60 or $100 per acre for the reclamation of the land. Does not the present project offer abundant evidence to the effect that such pri ces can be paid and will be readily paid? "It's curious to observe," says a Maryland man. "the manner In which manv illiterate persons prosper. I once had business that used to take me at Intervals to a certain place on the eastern shore. On one occasion I went into a store there, the pro prietor of which could neither read nor write. While I was there a man came in evidently a regular custom er. "'I owe you some money, don't 11' he inquired. "The storekeeper went to the door j and turned it around so that the back was visioie. " 'Yes,' said he. 'you owe me for a cheese.' " 'Cheese!' exclaimed the customer. 'I don't owe you for any cheese! "The storekeeper gave another look at the door. " 'You're right,' said he. 'It's a grindstone. I didn't see the dot over the "I" in the middle.'" September Lipplncott's. THE AMERIGAN NATIONAL BANK PENDLETON, OREGON UNITED STATES DEPOSITARY Statement at close of business September 1, 1910 Roosevelt would not sit at a Chi cago banquet if Senator Lorimer at tended because it has been shown that Lorimer was elected senator through the bribery of legislators. The colonel is a rough and ready individual and Is known as a good mixer. But it is evi dent that there are some men with whom he will not travel. It is a fact that the hope for the future advancement of Umatilla coun ty lies in the irrigation of more land. And unless all signs fail we will soon have more irrigation both govern mental and private. If you have not yet registered you have been very negligent. Go and consult the registration clerk at once. Remember that registration for the primary election closes Wednesday. Monday will mark the opening of the Pendleton schools and it Is time the small boy was getting himself ready for the ordeal. The conservation congress refused to stand for the work of those who would block effective conservation. There will be a big crowd of red blooded people here during the dist rict fair and Round-up. Many towns are now doing some street paving. Pendleton did that years ago. A man about town dropped into a cheap restaurant. "Bring me some bird's nest soup," he said. "I'm sorry," answered the waiter, "but we haven't any bird's nest soup. But I can heat up the water them gold fish are swimming in in a Jiffy."

Get OSTETTER' CELEBRATED STOMACH BITTER A man rushed out of his hotel, cry ing: "I've nothing left to live for. I'm going to commit suicide." The hotel proprietor sent for a friend of the man and told him of the threat "Oh." said the friend, "he won't do it you never could depend upon him." Two little terriers playing about a stage door stop frolicking when a large bloodhound strolls out. The white terrier says to the spotted one: "Clarence won't notice me since he has been playing in 'Uncle Tom's Cabin.' " Mr. Fly comes home Intoxicated. Mrs. Fly, indignantly upbraids him. "How dare you come home to me In this condition? I'm going to fly right back through the window to mother." "I couldn't help it, dear. I fell in to a glass of beer."
