The 30,000 men, wo men and children recently on strike were entirely foreigners. They were imported from the pauper labor dist ricts of Europe and if statements from them are true they are sorry they came. The tariff citadel protects workingmen in theory', not in reality. Reports from Lawrence show that workers have been receiving from J,..23 to JT per week for their ser vices and that they are forced by ne cessity to live under conditions that constitute a reproach upon our coun try. j In view of these facts the "Ameri can standard" argument loses its ef fectiveness.

NO "GOI SHOEING." have seen gambling suppressed In tl its stages, from the rou'.ette wheel to the dice box , but Saturday we were permitted to see one of the greatest gambling games on earth played in an open business house of our own city. This was a game of chance, a game of lottery, where' the prize was concealed behind heavy brown paper, thoroughly tied and stamped by the American Express company. Discouraging, indeed, was the game to the man who plunkei down his go'.d and silver and racked off the Jack pot of old dirty socks and buggy bedding. But with all this discouragement some where in the game there was an air of gain, for it takes a winner and a loser to play such a game. The winners of this game could easily be picked ou4. as they stood back of the table-dealing the cards. On their faces there was a smile half concea'ed with mock earnestness. Like the salted mine in the days of '49. this gold mine of the American Express company's must have some salt in the appearance of a gold nug Ket. How freely did the auctioneer applaud the fact that he once sold a trunk with a thousand yards of silk in it for J2.30 Of the possibilities of finding a diamond in a package no larger than your fist upon which pretense dozens of such packages were sold for $3 and $4 each. Many and mttny a dollar went over the lottery table Saturday that shall never make its appf.intnce in Pendleton again but if we listen with a keen ear we may hear it make its little c'ing as it falls into the vaults of the American Ex press company, already made over flowing with exorbitant express rates Was there a minister of the gos pel w ho crossed the threshold of this gambling den Saturday, the one man on whom we depend for the help of God? Was there an officer of our city there, the one man to whom we depend for the administration of our law? I there were such men there I would like to ask them if they did not feel that the poor wife and daugh ter of some of the men who were lur ed into that den did not need the money which was so cherishly handed over to the American Express com pany. I do sincerely hope that some one with the authority will take it upon their shoulders to see that such a gambling game shall never enter the limits of this city again. Respectfully, CHA.S. DESPAIX.

Oregon democrats should be es pecially anxious to know how their candidate stands regarding the Ore gon system. This promises to be the real important issue in the coming campaign. Oregonians know where Woodrow Wilson stands. He is a strong, clear minded champion of di rect legislation and direct primaries. No one knows about Champ Clark's views because he has never expressed himself. The logical thing will be for Ore gon d'-mocrats to vote for Woodrow Wilson at the primaries in April.

Editor East Oregonian: That the shooting of court official. , by a Virginia criminal and his rela tives and friends should be gleefully siezed upon by the opponents of the recall was to be expected. "Here," they say in effect, "you have the workings of the recall of judges and court officials." But it is to laugh. Does any one capable of looking at the matter from an unpredjudiced point r.f view. Suppose for an instant that the offi cers who were instrumental in the arrest and conviction of this man Alien would have been amenable or subject to recall by the people? These officers were' doing their sworn duty. They were enforcing the laws as placed on the statutes by those authorized by the people of Vir ginia. That is not the kind of offi cers nor court decisions that the peo ple want to recall. Not by any means. Just the contrary. If the jsherisf had refused to arrest; if the district attorney had refused to prose cute; it,the trial judge had dismissed the case on some flimsy pretext, then there should have been something do ing. This is the kind of officers the recall is intended for. Every law breaking trust official; every defaulting bank cashier; every bad check artist, in fact every law breaker from the highest land gab bing thief to the lowest hen grabbing thief, is an enemy to any court be fore which he is afraid of getting his dues. The multi-millionaire crimi nals in high life depend upon the brains their money can hire to keep them out of the penitentiary.

The present rooms are not satisfac tory. They are wholly inadequate to meet the needs of a town like Pendle ton. No other live Commercial club i; the northwest has such a poor showing in this regard. There are towns not far away, with but a half or third of Pendleton's population wav of the front door, not the rear. If Attorney General Wickersham is right in his opinion that the national guard cannot be sent out of this coun try then there Is little use in keeping the guard alive.

Mary Holland Kinkaid in Good Housekeeping. An l.iitertaiiiiiK'iit Hint. Do you want to have a very lively party for a crowd of young people Try this one: Have card tables to accommodate four at each, and in the center of each table put a pile of buttons. It is wise to cull out all those with very small eyes or "shanks." and also cloth buttons. This part of the fun is an individual con test, the players being assigned to the various tables by means of sim ilar buttons. Pass around a little dish or tray on which are four plain white buttons, four black, four smok ed pearl, four shoe buttons, etc., and at each table have a card on which is sewed a fifth button of one of these varieties. The four players having white buttons will find places at the table where the card bears the white buttons, anil so on. - On the table place four needles (about No. 7) threaded with double white cotton. Do not make the thread more than eighteen inches long, as it is apt to tangle." Waxing the thread is also a good idea. At the tap of a bell the players begin to thread buttons, using only one hand. Naturally, if both hands were allowed, several buttons could be pick ed up and threaded easily; but with one hand a button might be pursued with difficulty, and finally secured by another player. At the tap of the bell the threading ceases, and the one who has succeed ed in making the longest string is declared winner. Of course this may be played pro gressively, the buttons being un threaded and left on the table each time, and tally kept by means of score-cards. In this case clever score cards can be made by using the large two-eyed buttons used on un derwaists. Glue them on cards, and paint nose and mouth, hair and eye lashes on the buttons, letting the two will stay on. Another contest that makes much merriment is this: Match your guests by buttons alike or buttons sewed on matching ribbons, and then furnish each couple with a box con taining a square of cloth, six buttons, a needle, and a yard-long piece ot thread. The requirements are that the girl must hold the needle while the boy threads it; then she must hold the cloth whole he sews the but tons on. The couple first accomp lishing this feat are declared win ners. Prizes might he a dainty button tag or a set of lingerie buttons for the winning girl, and a pair of sleeve buttons of pretty collar button box for the successful boy.

PHAItAOH AS A FISH. It is seldom t h it Collector Loeb't men are stumped. In fact they are pretty certain to find some classifi cation to fit almost anything which may be imported. By the way of example. Not long ago the mummy of an Egyptian king was brought over for a museum. The customs officer opened the box which contained the mummy and exclaimed: "Hallo, what have we here?" "A Pharaoh a genuine Pharaoh of the sixth dynasty " said tho scientist. "A a Pharaoh?" said tho puzzled officer. "I don't seem to remember what the duty on Pharoahs Is." He set to work to look up "Phar aohs' In his tariff schedule but found no such article entered in his list. "This importation," said the offi cer, finally, "does not seem to bo prodded for under the statutes. Wo shall have to follow our usual rulo in such cases, and class it with tho highest taxed article of the kind that It belong to. I shall classify your Phadaoh as dried fish." New York Sun. WHAT'S TIIK IU'ItltY? On one of the most prominent street corners of Victoria, B. C two Eng lishmen were deeply engrossed in con versation. This part of Canada con tains a great many Englishmen who are apparently from wealthy families, and have been sent over here in tho hope of the country developing them making them work, so to speak. A trolley car had turned the corner, stopped for some passengers to alight anj started off again, when a man turned tho corner on the run and boarded the moving car. The Englishmen looked at each other in amazement. "My word! Did you see him run?" one remarked. "The blooming ana'." replied his companion.

No great er demonstration could be made of thli selv-evident fact than the illegiti mate sale of uncalled for express packages carried on In Pendleton Sat urday. We live in an age of civilization, an age where good clean legitimate busi ness la looked upon with pride, and where all corrupt and Illegitimate business is suppressed. What is puz z'ing to many a man in Pendleton is why a wholesale gambling lottery would he permitted to be carried on In a city which boasts of its clean and thriving municipal government. Was it a call from the days of '49, when such would have been permitted, or wa it an oversight on the part of our city officers? We have seen the lid 'am down upon the open town.
