We are not sent Into this world to 3o anything Into which we cannot put our hearts. We have certain work to do for our bread and that is to be done strenuously: other work to do for our delight and that Is to be done heartily; neither Is to be done by halves or shifts, but wttb a will; and what Is not worth this effort Is not to be done at all.

So anyone can see for hlnmelf that Ore gnu Is fast coming to the front as a big producer of fast trotting aud pacing horses. The thoroughbred horse Is almost extinct In Oregon. One can recall the day when Judge Hybee's great filly ".Misty Morn" won the Oregon Derby, ami then went down to San Francisco where she defeated all the Im.t three year-olds In California.

So the sport ran down to such an extent thai most of the fairs held In the slate give no prizes for gallopers at all. While others limit the amount to $loo which k no inducement for the Johhers to come up here from Call forula; and with all the tracks in that slate now closed Indefinitely, It Is hard to say what those fellows are going to do for a living. Serves them right. 1 hey killed the goose which laid the goldeu egg. Heavy draft hors have, however, attained a degree of perfection In this state far beyond the most san guine expectations of people engaged In that branch of business. A Ken tucky gentleman who visited Toi'thind some three moutlut ago, said to the writer: "1 never visited a city of Portland's Blze that could honestly compare with h'r In the matter of business lioi.-s. You naturally look for fine gentle men's roadsters In a city of so much local wealth, but when you come to look at the express horses and dray horses used In the wholesale end of your city, you see what lx to be seen in no other city of Portland's size. It speaks volumes for the enterprlze of your breeders." The truth Is that Oregon has three big and rapacious market for all the big work horses she can produce Portland, Seattle and San Francisco. And the horse dealers of the latter rlty are never slow about sending here for Just xuch horses as they require. Thus It will be seen that the horse has entered largely Into the spirit of Oregon. This Is only one of the many lessoim which have been learned over aualn because of the Astoria Centennial Pageant, opening August 10 and closing September 9.
