Like him, who in the cruel Pharoah's land, Slew the Egyptian, in a rage. and then Buried h'.s body in the desert sand, Seeing his brothers scourged, enslaved and bound, Beaten and broken for a ty- rant's fame, Rearing- vast pyramids, In cease- less round Of endless toil" his anger ' fiamed white flame. God give us angry men in every age. Men with ind'gnant souls at sight of wrong, Men whose whole being glows w;th righteous rage, Men who are strong for those who need the strong. And pity those soft youth this nation, rears; Who never strike a blow for human need. Tho?e puny souls that live be hind their fears, . And grow m ire puny, fed on lust and greed. Charles M. Sheldon, author of "In His Steps," etc.. la the In dependent. ! ! i THE PEUI'LE SHOULD SELECT. In his address at the anti-assembly rally Wednesday nijht Attorney Gen eral Crawford told of suits that are now pending and in which he repre sents the slate. There is litigation underway relative to the rights of the railway commission and theie are other suits haing to do with the stat us of corporations within this state. One suit that is now before the su preme court tests the constitutionality of the fiiitiative and referendum. In view of this situation the office of attorney general Is an Important one. It is of decided Importance that the people elect an attorney general Who will stand for the public welfare faithfuly and fearlessly. It would be poor policy indeed to elect an attorney general who Is selected by the corpor ations that are In court. Yet that Is what will be done if the assembly nominee for attorney general Is nominated and elected. The assembly was dominated by men representing the very Interests that are on trial. Therefore It Is a fair as. sumption that Mr. Hart, the assembly choice for attorney general, Is satis factory to those Interests. Being sat isfactory to them Is he satisfactory to the people? Now in fairness to Mr. Hart, who la an estimable man and Uvea In Baker City, it should be said that he 'doubtless has no Intention of serv ing the corporations rather than the people in the event of his election. Eut If he is seeking the attorney gen eralship with the intention of doing his full duty he showed poor Judg ment In accepting a nomination or recommendation from the corpora tion lsed assembly. He should have come out openly and sought a nomi nation in accordance with the spirit and letter of the direct primary law. Baring allowed them to put him up for office he cannot escape the sus picion that naturally accompanies the Assembly endorsement. HE COMES RATHER LATE. President Taft haa heard the roar t protest against standpatlsm that Is going up all over the country and be Is giving heed. He is making adgna Indicating that he desires to get aboard the band wagon. He will re' tore federal patronage to the pro gressive or Insurgent senators and rep resentative. But doe not the presidential repen tance come at a late hour? Will tha progressives place a high value upon the friendship the president la show ing them, now that tha skies are bright for Insurgency. Would they not hars been more pleased had tha president treated them fairly In the days when tha sky was dark? Does Poindexter care much what the pres ident does now? Does LaFoliette? It is safe to predict that regardless ' of what President Ta?t may do from j this time on he will never become strong with the progressive element of his party. They will never forget how the president treated men like LaFollette, Beveridge. Poindexter and others in the days w hen friendship fiom the white house would have been appreciated but was denied. There Is an excellent chance for a republican of the true progressive j type to become the next choice of that party for president. HANDLING THE CROWD. In the matter of good passenger train service there is no other city of the northwest more favored than Pendleton. Upon the main line of the O. R. & X., the Spokane division, the Umatilla Central and upon the Pendleton-Pasco branch of the Northern Pacific a total of 22 passenger trains arrive daily in this city and 22 trains depart This affords a splendid ser vice from all directions and this good strvice hr.s much to do with Pendle ton's supremacy among the towns of this part of Oregon. Just at this time this good passen ger service is proving of especial val ve. Those trains will serve to handle the big crowds that will be here for the Round-up and the district fair. AYith the regular passenger trains and the multitude of special trains the O R. & X. company will operate from every direction there shottld be no difficulty In handling the big crowd. Xow what of the accommodations for the people after they reach the city? That is a feature that should also be attended to carefully. For every guest that will be in the city during the big show there should be a place to sleep and a place to eat. So far only one republican candi date for a nomination for representa tive has tr.ken statement Xo. 1. Others sr.y they favor statement Vo. 1 but t.ey do not subscribe to the state ment. They have not yet taken the statement pledge although the East Oreemiian has called attention to, their oversight In this matter. Very well lt them go. Perhaps some dem- j ocrat will take statement Xo. 1 and j do so without quibbling. If so he will probably be elected. People don't like qulbblers. A dispatch from London says Dr. Cook is bound for Etah to secure the records he left there and which will support his claim that he found the north pole. The East Oregonian sug gests that he take along a couple of rrputable witnesses, such as Col. Clark Wood and Col. Fred Boyd to verify the finding of the records. According to one of yesterday's news stories President Taft is willing to allow Roosevelt to take the job back two years from now. But it 's more likely to be a new man such as Senator Cummins of Iowa or a dem ocrat. Will Major Lee Moorhouse enter In the biscuit making contest this year? Once more those reservation roads are to be opened. Fine. CENPfRE FOR ABRAHAM. Pendleton. Ore., Sept. 16., 1910. Editor East Oregonian: We had the pleasure of attending the political meeting held at the opera house and heard the political Issues discussed by anti-assembly candidates, and being an insurgent or progressive republican or both, we were Interest ed in the discussion and we intend to cast our vote for Insurgent candidates but claim the privilege of selecting our own men. We confess, "however, that we were much disappointed In Mr. Abraham, candidate for governor. This man assumes to be the great pacificator, whose mission, so he claims is to unite the republican factions In Oregon, and he sought to do this by taking a neu tral stand and abusing both factions of the party and In particular In cen suring Judge Lowell for daring to fa vor the nomination of Mr.. Dimlck. The attack on Judge Lowell was un called for and much out of place at this meeting. Every fair minded man must com mend Judge Lowell for being brave enough to fight bosslsm In our own ranks and to openly assail the as sembly plan. In this campaign we have our forces divided among sev eral candidates who are striving for the anti-assembly nomination, while on the other hand the assemblyltes and standpatters are united and we agree with Judge Lowell the time has come If we would defeat the assembly movement we must unite upon the ablest, strongst candidate, and not di vide our strength. We say combine with democrats If that Is the only ef fective way to wipe out the pernicious A Safo Medicine The reason the Bitters Is ao popu lar and safe for every member of the family Is because It contains no nau seating or habit-forming drugs, and the weakest stomach can retain It Therefore, take Hostetter's Stomach Bitters In preference to anything else and be on tha safe aide.

AU druggists. assembly, and to kill off the political parasites In all political parties. If Mr. Abraham Is going to unite the republican party, we are with him, but we want him to have the re publican party uphold the direct pri mary and statement Xo. 1 and not at tempt to abrogate, nullify and get away from measures that the party is responsible for incorporating into law. Cut out the assembly, support the initiative and referendum and re call and don't get the office Itch un til you know the people have called you out. D'in't try to be astandpatter and insurgent at the same time. Don't be a standpatter at all for the spirit and times are against standpatism. In surge if your party favors the Inter ests, as against the people. Insurgen cy and progressiveness Is abroad In our land today coming like a mighty wave to engulf the bosses and the as sembly plan and make spotless dirty politics. Much pressure is being brought to bear upon anti-assembly electors gen erally, threatening dire calamity If standpatters are not supported, but a very large percentage of the voters have heard the bellowing of bulls and the braying of asses before. Referring again to Abraham, the candidate of biblical name, we hon estly believe he lost votes in Pendle ton if he had any assured. We cannot believe he is the Moses to lead us out of the political wilderness and nobody is going to fall upon his bosom and proclaim him a pacificator, and we further believe that when the 24th day of September passed into history, the great want of votes will make a nasty, bitter brown taste come in Mr. Abraham's mouth, and while we are believing a great deal we will further believe at about the same time and place, a few of our very expensive of fice holders will take a very long po litical vacation. G. W. C6UTTS. POINDEXTER'S- VICTORY. Yesterday the republican voters of the state of Washington expressed in unmistakable manner their belief in the progressive policies of President Taft and ex-President Roosevelt. Congressman Poindexter, a conspic uous progressive, received an over whelming vote for United States sena- tor. The Third district, including all the East Side but Klickitat county, has elected W. L. La Follette, a progres sive. Congressman Humphreys In the First district has probably been de feated by Revelle, a progressive. In the Second district late returns point to the nomination of Stanley Warbur ton. Insurgent, over Congressman Mc Credie standpatter. The entire sta'e congressional ticket, therefore. Is In surgent. The election of these republican candidates is practically assured. The republican candidates for the state legislature are nearly all pledged to vote for the candidate for United States senator receiving the largest popular vote. So it is certain Mr. Poindexter will be the next United Sates senator. The state is so heavily republican that the republican nomi nees chosen by the voters at yester day's primaries are sure to be elected to congress. Miles Poindexter will exert a posi tive Influence in the national senate. Hi3 work will be constructive for the people and not protective for the spe cial interests. Like Theodore Roose velt he stands for the square deal the good of men and women and against unfair profits In business. Spokesman-Review. TOUGH LUCK. "I suppose," said the kind lady, as she handed the' husky hobo a gener ous wertpe of apple pie, "that your lot Is full of hardships?" "Pat's de proper word fer it, ma' am," replied the h. h.
