The poet sings of the joys of life At the side of the dusty road, Where one can be a friend to man And faith, 'tis a noMe ode: And fain would I follow the po et's words. But first let me set this down; The road that is picked must not be far From the ede of the busy town. And the house must be quite up to date. Of a bungalow design, With plumbing new and porch ornate, And a pergola and vine; In some suburban haunt like that. On some such modern plan. Who would not live beside the road And be a friend to man? And if perchance it happened so I'd motored Into town To see the latest proDTem play, EVEN NEW HAMPSHIRE. Most people know something of railroad participation in politics in New Hampshire through having read Winston Churchill's novels. Though he wrote fiction the noted author evi dently ran close to the fact in this line for New Hampshire has been noted as. a railroad dominated state. In this respect Xew Hampshire has been the California of New England. But New Hampshire, like Califor nia, Is throwing off the yoke. A rail road commission bill Is one of the measures before the legislature this winter and the mere fact that such a move is considered is arousing much comment. It is the second sen sation along this line that has been sprung recently. The first was an announcement by President Mellin of the Boston & Maine railroad that his road would go out of politics and at tend to its own business strictly. He doubtless had good reasons for .mak ing that announcement, All over the country people are op posing corporation control of politics. They are fast learning that to get the best results the states must control the corporations; the corporations must not be allowed to control the states. LA GRANDE'S JUST KICK. According to the announcement of the census bureau La Grande has a population of 4,843. This announce ment is taken as a Joke by the La Grande papers. The Observer de clares the figures are far below what they should be and makes some caus. tic comments regarding the work of the enumerators. In support of the claim that the figures are too low it i shown that they are 500 below the figures of the state census taken five years ago. Hjwever, La Grande people should not complain too much. They are setting off light. If reports now In -!-?--'lation are true Mr. Durand will make -Pendleton's population at least 1000 less than under the showing of the state census. It is quite evident No one should call me down, jtliat tne government enumerators did For I would leave a servant there All smiling, spick and span, By proxy thus I still would be A friend to fellow man. Denver Republican. not make a full count. A SCHEME THAT WILL FAIL. If he could do so Jay Bowerman would like to heckle Governor West . . . - .a fci jjica' ent "progressive" state board. In his retirtng message as acting gover- nor he urged the creation of a state board of control. Opposing this scheme the Journal offers the fol lowing pertinent comments upon the same: "What does he propose for the governor to do? What the secretary of state? What the state treasurer? These three with. In some cases, the state superintendent of public in struction, now have charge of the state institutions. The conduct of these institutions is a chief part of what they have to do. It is one of the main things they are elected to do. They are at the capital, they are Una i ...... .1 r. . . ----'- o cvfig VUUO- en for the purpose, and are best fit ted to conduct the state Institutions. In taking the care of the institutions away from them, does the acting gov- ernor, retired, propose for them fflere l? to play golf and draw salaries? "In arguing for his board of con trol, Mr. Bowerman says, 'There Is neither reason nor Justification for the present method of managing state affairs.' Is there reason or Justifi cation for Mr. Bowerman's plan? Why create another board to man age atialrs ror the management of which there Is already an excellent board? In what way would a new board be superior to the existing board? Why have more officials and more salaries? Why have two boards when one will do? " 'The public has the right to ex pect and demand that public money be expended with the same Judicious core exercised by an ordinarily pru dent business man,' says Senator Bowerman, as a clinching arbument for his proposed double-headed gov ernment at Salem. Exactly so, and that Is why the public objects to a scheme of having two boards do what can better be done by one. It Is also why the public objects to the appointment by Mr. Bowerman of a superintendent for an eastern Ore gon asylum two years before the asylum was completed, and to the payment of a salary in an office in which there are no duties." It Is evident that Bowerman would like to "get even" with Governor West by taking power from him and in vesting It In a new board of control. But it will be surprising if the legis lature takes up with the Bowerman plan. It Is not a businesslike plan as ue journal points out. Besides til ltalBtMM .

This despite the fact that the weather ob server had been vainly forecasting "snow and colder" for three or four days. Pendleton has a winter resort climate. Governor Johnson of California, went into the gubernatorial campaign upon one great issue the Southern Pacific must be kicked out of political ccntrol of California. He won out in the election and he is now striv ing to carry out his promises. v But it will not be an easy task. Some Englishmen are very confi dent they will discover the south pole about December 22, 1911. Sounds Just a little bit like they are going to try to Dr. Cook the world again. Dr. Plamonden is in the position of the Swede who "had a good yob but lost It." After the branch asylum has been built Pendleton should be able to get a traction line. Maybe the members of the board brought the snow with them from the valley. STOMACIHTIS. -''After all, tt is pleasant to reflect that we are not made upon the one pattern inside or outside; and that what Is one person's meat Is another person's poison. We w-ho love beef steak, and whom beefsteak loves, need no be influenced to drop It (as long as we can get It) Just because somebody, out of his own experience, insists that the best diet for the lutmyl race Is nuts or fruit or vegetables. Strides into print Tom Jones, relat ing how he lives upon a handful of nuts dally for lunch at noon, and an apricot salad for dinner at night. This course saved him from dttftth by Indigestion or mal-digeslon, has made a new man of him. and he would spread his gospel of how to get well and keep well. Tet from whore I write. I can see at work a man weigh ing close to two hundred, who also was once a "dyspeptic," and who sav ed his life by a strict' diet of warm blood and raw meat. To the vegetarian and the fruitari an, the meat-eater may point to the fact that in fur-hunting days of the west the dally ration of employes of the American Fur company was six pounds of buffalo meat; and that from year to year, the. sole food of the trapper was meat raw, cooked and jerked. The Sioux and the Comanche alike lived upon the buffalo, and the wild cherries occasionally mixed with the pemmican were the only fruit or "vegetable" that ever went down their gullets. Yet who could or cftfl surpass In endurance the mountain-man of beaver times, or his contemporary, the Indian? The Eskimo subsists mainly upon blubber;-Bahaman upon fish; the tropic dweller upon bananas and breadfruit; as said, the menu of trap per and Ildian was meat exclusively meat as strong and as red as beef. To some persons, strawberries are a poison; to some, milk; to some, peaches I would much rather put away a porterhouse steak than a spoonful . or forkful of Tom Jones' ap ricot or peach salad. There Is the no-breakfast cult. But to some of us breakfast Is the most pleasant meal of the day. If I have no breikfast. I have a. headache In stead; and a moderately hearty break fast carries me gallantly through the day until dinner at night. And I ii- tlce that many of the no-breakfast i eaters and one-mealers In their two meals or their one meal make up for previous omissions. This volatile world is running to stomachitis, and It behooves a squad of us Independents to stand firm for our rights. When breakfast agrees with us and we with it we will retain It, and not be driven into experiments. And when we so relish a thick steak, or pork chops, or macaroni, or mince pie, or tea and coffee, and they can not be arraigned by us for cause, we will stick to our old friends. For our stomachs are our own; they are individual stomachs; and by a lit tle care we learn to know their apti tudes better than does somebody a thousand miles away, who would sub mit his stomach as a universal esti mate. Edwin L. Sabin in January Lippincott's. Has no Equal for Coughs and Colds "For all throat and lung trouble and as a general tonic there U nothing to compare with Duff. Pure Malt Whiskey," says Mrs. George Habitch. And used as a rub-down for her baby after bathing, it has made him a healthy little chap. 'I use Duffy's Pure Malt Whis key for coughs and colds and as a luiiic and I find great relief. 1 cannot give it enough praise. II also use it for my baby. I rub it on his back and head every time I bathe him and he is a strong, fat, healthy boy. People take him for a year old child and he is only four months." Mrs. Geo. Hab itch, 248 Fox St., Buffalo, N. Y. Thousands of letters like the above are received from grateful men and women who have been made well and strong by the great body builder, and who continue to enjoy good health. Duffy's Pure Walt Whiskey Has to its credit fifty years 01 success without a question as to its merits as a curative agent. During this time it has brought the blessings of health to overworked men, delicate women, and sickly children, who find in it the strength-giving properties that are so necessary to them. It overcomes all weakening, wasting and run down conditions of the body, brain and muscle, giving the system power to throw off and resist colds, coughs, grippe, catarrh, bron chitis, asthma and lung troubles, and it is a wonderful remedy in the prevention and cure of con sumption, pneumonia, malaria and low fevers, taken as directed. Pre scribed by doctors and recognized as a family medicine everywhere. CAUTION. When you ask your druggist, grocer or dealer lor Dulfy'e Poro Malt Whis key be sura you get the genuine.

The late Julia Ward Howe was no believer in New Tear's resolutions. "We should make ana Keep good resolutions all the year round," the celebrated author once said In Bos ton. "I am no great believer In Xew Tear's vows, for, although they are splendid things, they really don't amount to much more than Oliver Wendell Holmes' tobacco resolution. "Mr. Holmes, with affected gravity, said to a friend on the first day of the year: " 'I really must not smoke so per sistently; I must turn over a new leaf a tobacco leaf and have a cigar only after each ' Here he paused as if to say 'meal,' but he continued 'after each cigar.'"

This is the principal difference between a dog and a man. OLD SORES DUE TO DISEASED BLOOD Every symptom of an old sore sug gests diseased blood. The inflamma tion, discharge, discolored flesh, and the fact that local applications have ao permanent effect toward healing :he ulcer, shows that deen down in '.he system there is a morbid cause for ihe sore. But more convincing proof that bad blood is the cause for these places is furnished by the fact that ;ven removing the sore or ulcer by surgical operation docs not cure; they always return. Nature will heal any 3ore if the blood is pure aud healthy, but until the circulation is cleansed of all impure matter and supplied with nourishing and plasm ic qualities the infected condition of flesh is OBLIGED to remain. S. S. S. heals Old Sores in a perfectly natural way. It goes into the blood, removes the impurities and morbid matters, adds nourishing qualities to this vital Quid, and brings about the very con ditions that are necessary be fore any sore can heal. S.S.S. is a perfect blood purifier, acting directly on the circula tion through the stomach and dieestive mem bers. Its use makes rich, red, healthy blood, which nourishes all flesh tis sues instead of infecting them with the virulent, matter which keep old sores open.

Andrew Carnegie, at a dinner In Xew York, talked about the Scotch dialect. "It's a hard, lingo to understand," he said. "It often causes awkward mistakes. "Once an American divine spent Christmas in a Highland inn. On Christmas morning he gave the maid a tip of a sovereign and he said. looking earnestly at her for she was a prety maid: " 'Do you know, Kathleen, you are a very good looking lassie?' "Of course Kathleen was pleased, but, being modest, she blushed like a rose and answered: " 'Ah, na; ah, naL. But my klssln, sir. is bcauiful!' The divine frowned. " 'Leave the room, you wicked young baggage!' he said sternly.
