BT.ADFIELO regulator co .. ATLANTA, SA. FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 9. 1904 Japan, the Beautiful. The ghost of grace through heathen tides and times Hath kept her vigil neath thy trembling stars! Thy cherry blossom cheeks, in peace or wars Still beam rapport with all thy sweetest chimes! New states may grow where fallen states have been! The pulse of Beauty, dead, shall beat no more! Thine not the cause of wall and tower and store— Thy citadels are laid in hearts of men! — Ivan Swift in September Sunset J. H. Cradlebaugh. in speaking of Salem, in September “Sunset" mags zine says the stranger notices an air of "quiet dignity” in the city. Now this is an artistic term for downright dullness, Over in Baker or Sumpter, where the stranger notices this same air, be Immediately says the town is od the bum.” but in Salem it is just quiet dignity.” That honesty in public office may still be found is shown by the fact that former Governor Robert E Pat tison. of Pennsylvania, left an estate of only »9000. He had served two terms as governor of Pennsylvania, and had also been sent to congress for several terms, But he had not used his official power to add to his income by any of the questionable means which so many office-holders find profitable, Governor Pattigon's family is left comparatively poor in this world's goods, but they have the greater satisfaction of knowing that the name they bear stands for clean ness and high honor. Every Inland Empire farmer has an ear upon the ground listening for the portage whistle—that rate-reducing sound’ He has watched the legisla ture drill the hole and buy the fuse; be has flinched to feel his master turn again the grinding screws; he bag seen the state commission pour the powder in the hole, where around the stony gateway, the waiting waters roll; he has heard the hot air music from the press defiant flow, piping, "all is ready, gov ner, say the word and let er go!” He has seen the shots all capped and primed, has heard the doubters scoff. Now he’s listening for some one to touch the durned thing on; patkin's retreating. There may be evil design in the seeming Russian rout. The watching world hopes not. But it looks suspicious. Beware, Japan, beware, Your victory is so tar Don’t lose your head, complete. Don't put your foot in it. Victory more often follows fresh troops than it does the righteous cause. Captain Matousevitch, chief of staff of the late Admiral Withoft, says that the shot which shattered the bridge of the flagship Czarevitch and killed the admiral, was fired by the Japan ese a distance of eight miles. He asserts that in ihe battle, the Japanese would not permit the Rus sion ships to approach nearer than eight miles, and that the great dam age to the Russian vessels were brought about by shots fired at distance This is marvelous shooting when all :lie conditions are considered; name Iv. that both gunners and target are in motion, going forward and tossing about, that the target at a distance of eight mile« must appear very small and that all kinds of allowances must be made by Ute marksman, it seems evident that the Japanese have made tarket practice a most conscientious duty, and that they have brought nta rine firing to a science. This war is teaching us many things, and none so important as the fact that, without marksmanship, biggest and best armed ships are better than junk. The "third battle of Bull Run " be ing fought today by militia and troops is only costing the dear people of this government »1.500,000 in spot cash. And what -s the rank folly all for. anyway? What need is there to keep up these worse than useless waste of money? lsn t It enough to spend the people's money in actual war. when it becomes painfully neees sary. without trumping up the would be patriotic ruse of a sham battle. in which to keep alive the spirit of car nage and waste the substance of the people? Why is not some elevating and peaceful achievement of the t>ast generation imitated. If it is desired to keep alive patriotism? Is there nothing in the past history of this country, except war that is worthy of commemoration’ The people ot the United States may well ask themselves in sober thought just what good that $1.500.000 of their substance, arising in smoke from the field of this sham battle, will do them, the government or civilization As usual, it is a woman The pack ing house strike yields to the magic touch of Mary McDowell, who sym pathised in a noble womanly way way with the suffering families, per haps shed tears, in the quietude of her room for the ragged urchins of the idle men. yet whose powerful magnetism and diplomacy touches the hard hearts of the members of the trust, and restored most of the 5<‘."< hi jobs to their former owners, the heart- sick strikers Mary McDowell and not President Donnelly. Is the cen- tral figure of the settlement, Her delicate touch broke the charm against which the bull-headed obsti nacy of Donnelly stood powerless and dismayed unlv a woman She don't court notoriety. She displayed no authority. She made no official visits nor was her coming and going heralded over the and. Yet she set tled the strike in the only sensible way left open. Her mission deals with a horde of illiterate, unread semi-barbarians in most part, yet sh» has served the public in a noble man ner. The hesitating cattle trains of the west can now roll to market. The waste of energy and the pangs of want will cease The wheels turn again in all the centers of trade and to Mary McDowell give all the praise. Every night the Pendleton Commer cial Association meets in its present crowded quarters, the necessity for a club building, designed and equip ped expressly for club purposes. Is thrust upon the membership. The past year in Pendleton has been sin gularly and happily free from calls of charity or public expense. Nature has poured into the lap of the city and county a bountiful volume of prosperity and before another win ter, with its long evenings and de mands for social recreation come«. Pendleton should treat herself to such a building, not forgetting in the meantime, a swimming pool and a public park for the hot «Ummer afternoons and evenings, This is a good year to begin. Speaking of Pendleton newspapers, the Athena Press makes the following comment, which is duly appreciated. It shall always be the aim of this paper to be Independent, accurate and progressive, and the esteemed con stituency at Athena and other Uma- tffla county towns will be given the best to be had in the way of local and general news. The Press says: "The Pendleton Tribune came up this morn ing in elght-page form, the first page carrying a limited Associated Press service. The typographical appear ance of the paper is helped materially by solid composition, but the general mechanical effect is marred by infer ior press work. As a local and coun ty paper the Tribune is yet far below the scale that for many years has been set by the East Oregonian. This fact is verified in the circulation of the two papers in the "squaw town," as the Tribune sees fit to designate Athena" Beware, Japan, beware, Your world of admirers are now hanging breathlessly on the latest news from the Orient You are venturing far in land. You are drunk with victory, exhausted with hard fighting and hard marching, You are confronted with a trap, which may be your undo ing. If you pursue Kuropatkin to Harbin, you will be worn out and battle tired. His force there will be joined by a new army collected from Vladivostok and from Russia by way of the Siberian road. You will be 1ft the enemy’s country, cut off from heli/? from your ships and exhausted frond the long chase. With his new re cruits your enemy may encircle you; fling out a new and refreshed army and then crush you!

Fred Grant to day. as he parades in mock warfare in command of a few "tin soldiers.” over the ground once stained in se tual carnage with the hest blood of the nation, under the generalship of his Spartan father In comparing the two scenes, this rather puffed-up son of a great man, should be so thorough ly imbued with the nasty folly of these mock battles that he would re- fuse to participate again, even to please a warlike president. Umatilla county would have the largest attendance of any coifnty in the state at tfie Ontario Irrigation meeting, if attendance were measured by the actual results and benefits of irrigation. A new pest in the form of a red spider is found in the Oregon hop fields this year and threatens to be injurious to the crop. When a child I had a very severe at tack of Diphtheria, which came near prov ing fatal. Upon recovery the glands of th« neck were very much enlarged, and aftei the free use of iodine, the right one was reduced to its normal size, but the left one continued to grow—very slowly at first, until it was about the size of a g«x»M e^g, which began to pres* on the wind pipe, causing difficult breathing, and be came very painful. An incision wax made and a large quantity of pus discharged The gland was removed, or as much at could with safety be taken out.
