Though the decision of the supreme court with reference to Standard oil U of vast importance it is not likely the decision will have any great ef fort on the financial world.

There was a great philosopher, Who had fine things to say. His words created little stir Till he had passed away. A painter's work, now very old, Brings wealth that few- men reach. Though he some of his pictures sold, For seven dollars each. A poet sang his songs inspired, A nation's soul to touch. It made his nearest neighbors tired, Though critics praised him much. A statesman strove with elo quence To give a timely hint. The best his wisdom so immense Secured was leave to print. Washington Star. its determination to place nothing but the strictest Interpretation on mat ters pertaining to trade restraints, that the popular expectation of adverse rulings in the current cases is very natural. It should be understood that it is not within the province of our Supreme Court to outline to the cor poration concerned how they may readjust their affairs to meet legal re quirements.' The province of the Su preme Court is to deal solely and specifically with any invasion of legal practice. The Court can show where in the law Is being violated, but, af ter that, it will rest upon the proper ! officials to adjust the affairs of their 1 corporations accordingly. In this re 'spect, however, there will be no spe- 'cial difficulty experienced, as the ex- Pendleton is sending a man, Tracy Baker, to one of the- big eastern ball teams. Some class to this town, ath letically as well as otherwise. I ! ecutives of the Standard Oil Co., and probably not less so of the American Tobacco Co., have in the past shown themselves to be such shrewd and ef ficient business men that it would be childish to believe arrangements have not already been considered to promptly take whatever action may be necessary to comply with the decis ions whichever way they may go." No doubt this Is entirely correct. The Standard oil company can well ffford to comply with the law now HE WON'T LEND IT. In response to a request from the Commercial club, made at the in stance of the local bankers, Pendle- : ion is hi nave a postal savings Dan. I a I After It Is established those who de- TWO GREAT DECISIONS. Two of the most important decis ions ever given by the United States supreme court were rendered yester day. Both are liberal or progressive decisions and they are in keeping with the sentiment of the nation. This ' deSDlte the wldesDrea.1 oninion that I in naming new men for the supreme bench President Taft selected men of standpat lather than progressive ten dencies. Those who stand for the American doctrine of equal rights to all and special privileges to none will rejoice I that the supreme court overrules he i decision of the court that sentenced 1 Gompers, Mitchell and Morrison to Jail. These labor leaders were charg- j ed with contempt of court for having j broken an order which forbade them I from publishing the fact that the j American federation of la1.-..' 1 war with the. Buck range company. I What they published was the truth and had Gompers, Mitchell ar.d Mor rison gone to jail they would have teen martyrs to the cause of tree speech as well as to the cause of la bor. The sentencing to jail of the tl.ree labor leaders seemed especially harsh in view of the leniency the gov ernment has frequently shown offend er; on the other side of the Capital Labor controversy. - In the Siandard oil case the supreme t.uurt has given what seems like the .:. j put;! -;. "pini'in. That the Stand ard oil company is a monopoly in re straint of trade ha i. ;.'-M-ruti',n i 1 c sire to do so may use Uncle Sam as a banker. Small sums may be left upon deposit and it will be absolutely safe. The postal bank will fill a want yet a want that is not pressing in Pendleton. Most people will prefer t use the regular banks for manifold reasons. One very powerful reason why the regular banks will continue to be generally patronized ls the fact that at times men wish to borrow mon ey and Uncle Sam makes no provision for lending any of hid coin to his patrons. A HEM IN ESCKN'C'E. Portland, Or., May 15, 111. Editor East Oregonlan: The finding, of a copy of the Pen dleton Tribune In the cornerstone of the old Episcopal church reminds me of an article which appeared In that paper about the year 1S75. News was probably rather scarce and the ed'tor, M. II. Abbott, wrote a two column ar ticle describing his beautiful dog, which had strayed away. It was a very pathetic article describing his sufferings because of the absence of the beautifully described dog. 1 was living at Weston at the time and Charlie Potter, the veteran stage driver whom all old timers will re member, was driving between Pen dleton and Walla Walla. We all felt so bad about the loss of Abbott's dog that we sent him several from Wes ton and among the lot was one big old, fat, greasy fellow that had be come quite a nuisance around the streets. In sending him, Hube Dask ett wrote a very pathetic letter, stat ing how we hated to part with him and how we hoped he would fill he aching void caused by the. loss of his beautiful one. Potter objected to carrying the dirty curs, but as the charges were prepaid he had to take them. Walla Walla, La Grande and Baker City contributed several of undisputed pedigree, but none could compare with the beauty we sent him from Weston, Brother Abi tt CIJ a. I joy the joke very much but he never advertised any more lost dogs. G. A. HARTMAN.

A little boy and a little girl were playing in the street out in Newton the other day. They quarreled and the boy struck tho girl in the face. Then a passerby Interfered. "There, there!" he soothed, awk wardly, "it doesn't hurt so much now, does it? Better stop crying." "I ain't c-c-cryln' because It hurts," sobbed the little one.

There is much said about the dig nity and sanctity of the law but it is noticeable that when really bis decis ions are made expediency ls always a I great lacLor anu il is prouaui) u guuu thin-? this Ls the case. People who predicted a drouth should be ashamed to look themselves in the face.

I The highest point of woman 'a hap piness is reached only through moth erhood, in the clasping of her child within her arms. Yet the mother-to-be is often fearful of nature's ordeal and shrinks from the suffering inci dent to its consummation. But for nature's ills and discomforts nature ; provides remedies, and in Mother's I been known for i friend is to be found a medicine of to aim'. st every man, ' great value to every expectant mother, j iid in the United States.

Why was the d'." ision not given year :.go hefure the oil trust had made col osfal fortunes for Its operators. Why Is it, since the court rules that the tr'jf. is 'llegal, the court does not or b r that resfltu'-ion be made the peo ple of tho United States? If the trust is III gal now It has been illegal all the time and the millions that have been taken In by John D. Rockefeller and his associates have been secured in violation of the- law. To be pure it might not be expedient O confiscate the Standard oil fortunes. Such action on the part of the court would tear our business system up by the roots and millions of people aside from Rockefeller would suffer in con sequence. Yet if the court carried it action to the logical conclusion some fetich step as this could be reasonably taken. Having refra'ned from demanding that the Rockefeller millions be given back to the public the supreme court did well to show equal moderation towards labor by refusing to send Gompers, Mitchell and Morrison to prison for exercising a constitutional right guaranteed to every citizen of the country. Thus is the equilibrium maintained. ing effect-en those portions of the system involved. It is intended to prepare the S3 stem for the crisis, and thus relieve, in great part, the suffer ing through winch the mother usually . passes.
