It's a fine day, Walter, it's a fine day and all Oregon hails you, Walter AI. Pierce, of Union county, as governor of Oregon. The fight is oer, the hatchet is buried, and buried'deeply. You have made a good fight, you have won it fairly, almost single handed, and you have won it squarely. You have dernonstarted that one Eastern Ore gon man can get past Troutdale in' state politics, and the people, even those Avho were opposed to you, are now with you. They are with you in all earnestness to save Oregon from bankruptcy; they are with you on every idea you have advanced to get the state back to a normal condition and put a brake on the ruthless extravagance which has marked the past few years; they are with you, Walter, foi good citizenship, constructive legislation, and will aid you in putting an end to any sectional or religious feeling. The Evening Observer today greets you as our gov ernor. We may have differed with you in times gone by, but "those days are gone forever," and now we slant; shoulder to shoulder with you, not as representatives of the political parties in this state, but as citizens, as sous ol Old Mother Oregon, and, as dutiful sons, we will join you in achieving results; we will assist you in every possible manner that we can to make good yo.ir pro-e1' clion pro mises of economy; we will be found a.vi-ng you, as. our chief executive, to bring reforms in iate affairs that will cease to be theory and redound to the benefit of the people of Oregon who pay the bills. La Grande feels a justiciable pride in having one of her citizens for governor of this commonwealth, and lays aside all political party dissension; La Grande honors you, Walter AI. I'ierce, as her governor-citizen, and as such we all have an abiding faith that when you have closed youi administration as chief executive you will take off the mantle of that office unstained, handing it to your suc cessor with many good precedents established, inanv good deeds recorded, and the economic condition of Oregon greatly improved. In making these few remarks, the Evening Observer feels that it voices the sentiment of Union county people, amf, spcakiift iVfr tllttii,ivc again s;tr, WillrY, jwrhftvo made a good fight, you have won the fight fairly and now we all stand by you in a result-getting administration, tin success of which will not onlv be your personal achieve ment but will also be an achievement and a satisfaction to every person residing in the old Grande Konde valley we all love so well.

Poverty may pinch an honest man, but it never destroys. Self-reliance, lifts an man up; self-conceit drans him down. The day's mile can be shortened by prefixing mi "s" to it. W i se Is t h e ma n who . ref uses t o take bis troubles seriously. The bulk of the happiness in the world is n by-proiluet of work. No woman is quite us wonderful us she expects her son's wife to !- Money which is striven for brings wilh il ihe real finalities of life. Some people worry so ni'icb about tomorrow that they forgot about today. If you would have a fa i I h fill ser vant and one that you like, serve yourself. The power to do pleat thiims Renerally arises from thu willing ness to do small things. Make the best, of everything; think t lie best of everybody; hope, Ihe best for yourself. Love will bring the light and make the rough road smooth and brush away Ihe difficulties. Some men are sit convinced they're unlucky dial they miss good luck when it cnmi s their way. Cleverness without principle Is no good, and learning is no good wit li on t common sense to apply it. More men fail through ignorance of their strength than through knowledge of their weakness. Work good, hard honest work- will achieve almost any material thing in this world, and work may bo delight fjil, noble, exhilarating, fascinating. Work may he lull of excitement, ot satisfaction, of joy, uud happiness.
