Ernest Weekly. who came from Nebraska a few months aco "to make good in cnieagu was killed while rescuing a young girl from death under the wheels of a locomotive. He had not won a high position No people cheered him when he passed, He may have mourned the hard condition Of those with whom his lot was cast. Perhaps sometimes he sadly wondered If life was worth the price he paid, Or if he had not blindly blun- dered When his ambitious plans were made. He may have found the world disdainful Of talent such as he possessed, And bearing bruises that were painful He may have toiled, his worth unguessed. He may have longed for- wealth and nower And Worth's reward misun- derstood; But when Fate gave him his great hour His manhood served him he made good. Chicago Record-Herald. THE ELECTION. The most earnestly waged election in the history of Pendleton was fought here yesterday and the results ere now part of the history of the town. W. F. Matlock defeated J. R. Raley for mayor in a close and ex citing race. Will Moore "wiped the earth" with his opponent James Johns and the gravity water forces are trl umphant. The commission govern rr.ent charter was defeated by a very Flight vote. Into the mayorality race many con flicting influences entered and it was a very peculiar fight. It was a con test between two of the most popular men in town each backed by a large personal following. As to what brought about Mr. Matlock's election it is not hard to guess. He had the greater share of the liquor vote and he like wise drew scores of votes from the other side. The last named votes ' went to Mr. Matlock on the strength of his platform pledges. In his plat form he declared firmly for the pres ent saloon regulation system and against any increase in the number of saloons. His opponent did the same thing and many considered the po sitions of the two men upon the sa loon question as being Identical. It is true the election of Mr. Matlock is regarded as a saloon victory and it Is such. Yet in view of his platform pledges that triumph is more nomi nal than real. Another influential factor in the election was the relative positions of the two men with reference to pub lic service corporations and especi ally the Pacific Power & Light com Indigestion Dyspepsia are two of the most common and most dis tressing of modem diseases, and are the cause of much i.l health.

Mr. Raley suffered under the misfortune of being an attorney for the electric company and he may safe ly charge his defeat to that fact. He might have overcome this handicap through a vigorous declaration in his platform but he did not do so. His platform paragraph relating to pub lic utility corporations was not suf ficiently strong nnd candid to over come the defect. On the other hand Mr. Matlock took advantage of his opponent's weak spot and exploited the claim that he himself was in no wise connected with any public ser vice corporation and that' if elected ht would first last and always be the champion of the people. He also de clared his intention, if elected, of working for cheaper rates on electric ity and gas. That declaration won Mm many votes and without those vctes he would not have been elected. Other influences also entered into the contest of course. But upon these it is needless to dwell. The election la over and congratulations are In order for Mr. Matlock, not merely be ciiuse he is the victor but because he won in a race against a very popular and capable man this despite the fact he is an attorney for a corpor ation that has not treated Pendleton fairly. As for Mr. Raley he has the consolation of knowing he was de feated by a strong and very popular opponent. The vote for water commissioner leaves no doubt at all as to where the people stand. The re-election of AVill Moore by a landslide majority shows conclusively that the people want a gravity water system. Furthermore the vote was an expression of con fidence in the present water com mission. The vote shows the people gave scant attention to the vicious, niudsiinging campJgn that was wag ed for months against Messrs. Brown, Moore and Ladow, the majority mem- burs of the water board. The board l endorsed in its efforts to secure mountain water for Pendleton and the members may now proceed with their plans. The people want good water and they leave it to the water board to get the best that is to be had. The defeat of the commission plan charter i.s much regretted by this pa per and the regret is the more keen because there was no occasion for such a result. n the view of this paper the commission plan was beat en by votes cast by men who feared the move w-as unfriendly to the water commission for the reason the adop tion of the charter vould have ab olished the board. North side people who voted heavily for Will Moore al so voted against the commission plan when their endorsement of the charter was expected. It was re peatedly asserted the saloon vote would be against the charter yet thfl results by wards do not bear out the charge. The third and fourth wards generally regarded as liquor strong holds cast a majority of but 11 votes against the commission plan. The other 26 out of the majority of 37 came from the first and second wards. Had It not been for the opposition of those who feared the effect of the new charter on the water question the commission plan would have been adopted. The defeat of commission govern ment by such a slender majority means that It will continue to be a live ist-.ue and very likely the people will vote again upon the same question before many years. In the meantime may they come to learn more and more of the merits of the plan and when the Issue is up again may it be free from needless opposition such as beset its pathway at thla election.

WKen men strive earnestly to get elected to office they do all they can to please the peoplo and the public is the gainer. In the mayorality race just pulled off here two good men sought the popular fa vor and both strove to earn It by set ting forth in their platforms the things they would do if elected. It U significant that the man who went the strongest in the w-ay of platform pledges came out victorious. As matters stand Pendleton i promised some things that might not now be In store had there not been a spirited contest over the mayorality. The election Is over and people may now return to normal affairs. It is useless to fight after the fight is over. Polities should be taken like the weather just as it comes.
