UMATILLA'S "SLIM CAYUSE.'
The "Slim Cayuse," as his friends
have lovingly named him, has won
the first heat in an interesting go-as
you please race, without showing any
signs of fatigue. He is not even
sweating or panting. He is steady
and cool as if a spin around the poll-
cal Lite track was only an appetizing
exercise before breakfast. His feet
are not tender, for he hardened them
in treading the rough ways of the
weBt. He is not nervous or afraid of
his shadow, for he has been on the
turf of public life for years. He is a
long-winded horse. He can turn as
quick as any horse; is not afraid of
"whip or spur; will not hump up and
buck if you "cinch" him. too tight.
He can go up and down hill all day,
for Le is accustomed to Western ups
and downs.
He will not shy or snort when you
approach him for he is used to hav
ing common people rub against him.
It is not necessary to have a trained
groom for him, and he can sleep on
the ground with mud on his legs and
get up in the morning feeling freBli as
a daisy. If there is no porcelain
trough near by it is all the same, for
he can drink out of the creek. He
was in the west before there were
many luxuries here and can do with
out them.
If there are no oats in the bin he
can subsist on bunchgrass and if
buncbgrass is scarce he will get fat
on willow twigs and sage brush. A
"Western horse soon learns to take
what is set before him. He wont
slip nor stumble. Was never known
to fall into a badger hole, and when
he leaps over a ditch he makes a
nice job of it. He is a Umatilla cay
uso, typical of her varigated resource
es. He has saddle marks, showing
service.
no is branded all over, which is
evidenced that many friends claim
him. He is nbt afraid of a cold col
lar, ana no matter how big the load
oi poies, ne will do his share. His
Joints are limber, his hoofs are like
flint, his eye is full of fight, his wind
is good, his limbs are straight and
comely and taken from the Oregon
uiunupoini or the American stand
point he is a rattling good "boss" for
a run.
And he will have to run steady and
well, for a real thoroughbred will be
pitted against him for the gubernator
ial race. Watch 'em run!
thereafter, If you do not take it at tho
flood, are born of endless struggle,
heartache, disappointment and de
spair.
Young man, this Is n busy age,
is an age of experts; an age of thor
oughness; an age of competency;
age of skill and industry and ability
It Is an age of action. You must
move, or be left behind. You must
be watchful of your opportunity
some one, in this age of keen compe
tltion, will take your turn, ere you
are aware, loung man, what are
you going to do In life? Are you
drifting aimlessly? Have you a fix
ed object? Have you an occupation
Have you an education? Have 'you
fortune to rely uimjii or are you simp
ly drifting?
Drifting is the curse of the world
It Is the deceiving destroying tempter
which lures you into the whirlpool
Don't drift. If you have no worthy
object to battle for, stay awake
night and seek one. Don't let the sun
rise again on an empty head and emp
ty hand and an empty life. The
world is full of fortune, overflowing
with promise. You rub against sue
cessful men on the Btreet corner.
You are just as intelligent as they
just as strong In mind and purpose,
just as rich in resources and as
worthy of success. TheBe men were
busy bodys. They did not drift. They
toiled mentally and physically, at all
times and at all tasks.
There are college professors all
about ou who plowed corn in youth
lawyers everywhere who went in
threadbare clothes through the strug
gle for an education; business men
everywhere, whose hands for years
were rough ana horny and bruised
with toil. They are better for it. It
made them what they are.
Young man, are you busy while the
sun is shining.' Are you learning
some new thing every day? Are you
laying a foundation? The hey day of
boyhood is fading like a summer sun
set, ueneatn our horizon, soon you
Will face that bustling, jostling, dis
tracted world, alone, or your merit
and your knowledge. Are you ready
for that ordeal? Think of It It has
caused strong men to shudder, even
after they have passed through It
There are so many abysses, so many
unknown brinks, so many chasms
yawning before the Inexperienced
lives of young men, that they need
the help of God and prayers of men.

BURDENSOME, HARMFUL TAX.
YOUNG MAN, ARE YOU BUSY.
Young man of the twontleth centu
ry, are you busy today? Were you
buBy yesterday? Will you be busy to
morrow? You are nearlng tho noon
of manhood; boy no longer, you are
taking upon you day by day, the
crowning possibilities of citizenship!
Are you fitted for this imperial
task? Have you been busy through

ties, your station, your occupation? i
Have you been Idle on tho streot cor

Only an .instant she tarries, and
passes on beyond recall. Did you

The position of the American news
papers in respect to the duty on wood
pulp is the same as that of any man
ufacturer whose business is hamper
ed and injured by the Dingley Impost
on his raw material. In advocating
the abolition of the duties on the ma
terials out of which news print paper
is made, a newspaper is obviously
speaking in its own interests. Any
manufacturer who appeals to con
gress for the removal of taxea on the
raw materials of his industry speaks
in ins own Interest. . The protected
manufacturers whose Influence with
congress caused the Dingley taxes to
be laid spoke often, loudly, and suc
cessful! in their own interests, l'he
privilege of taking a hand in any
phase of tariff discussion Is not to be
denied to the press because it has
business interests in the matter.
Bleached wood pulp pays a tariff
tax of one-quarter of a cent a
pound. Unbleached pulp pays one
twelfth of a cent per nound If ma.
chanically made, and one-sixth of a
cent per pound if chemicallv made.
The white paper unon which news-
papers are printed is taxed three
tenths of a cent per pound. The In
tention and effect of these taxes is to
enable American manufacturers nt
paper to charge a higher price for
tnoir product. Tho interest of the
newspapor public in nbolltion of tho
tax may be illustrated by an example.
u ifa impossiDie for a newsnaner tn
add to its selling price the exact
additional amount which it is forced
to pay for white paper ou account of
the duty. If the price of foreign
made papor is say. 2 cents a nound.
the duty amounts to 16 ner cent, nil

At Its meeting held in this city the
present week the American News
paper Publishers' Association adopt
ed a resolution asking congress "to
abolish the duty on wood pulp, me
chanicnlly ground wood, and lumber
used in the innnufacture of paper,
nnd that the duty on news print paper
be reduced." The newspapers of the
United States can secure the aboli
tion of this perfectly senseless, un
necessary and trust breeding tlx If
they will raise a united voice In sup
port of the demand made upon con
gress by the Publishers' Association.
This Is a perfectly typical instance
of a Dingley duty on raw material.
The revenue produced is insignificant
and the sole effect of the duty is to

INFLUENCE OF EDUCATION.
re
The influence of the press in edu
cation may be regarded by some per
sons bb a commonplace one, yet
there are many semingly common
place things that are of vital import
ance. Air and sunsuiue and water
are commonplace things, hut the..'
vital tliiuj;u.
The newspaper hu the carne
brings to the door eery evening for
the trifling sum of two or three cents
is, in one sense, a commonplac
thing, but In another sense It is one
of the most vital, energizing factors
that comes into our daily lives.
The forces even that enter into the
production of the modern newspaper
take it out of the realm of the com
monplace into the marvelous.
The invention of the linotype, an
amalgamation of the words, "line-of
type," has greatly facilitated the art
of printing and cheapened the cost
So perfect is the action of this won
derful machine, so Intricate its work
!ug& and so remarkable the results
that It seems as if endowed with hu
man intelligence. It is one of the
marvels of the age, and the name of
Ottmar Iferganthaler will go down
in history as one of the great inven
tors of the nineteenth century.
But the great triumphs of modern
journalism is not alone in the me
chanical art.
Its literary contributors are among
the ablest thinkers and writers of the
day. And why? Because they can
reach through these channels enor
mous numbers, of readers. The auth
or who writes a book is considered
fairly successful if the editions reach
five or ten thousand. If ten thous
and it is, a call lor unusual congratu
lauons, anu u a great wave or pop
ularity carries It to the one nun
dredth thousand he has attained phe
nomenal success. But the article in
large metropolitan daily may find
on a conservative estimate, a million
and a half of readers each dav. And
then there are the great newspaper
syndicates that are constantly send
ing out to the more remote sections
the writings of our best authors for
reproduction in country papers, and
the newB associations, whose office it
to collect and distribute the news
irom all Important points. All of
these facilities for imparting infor
mation and acquiring knowledge are
aue to the progressive spirit of mod
era journalism.

paper, so is he.". Next to the Bible

newspapers; the secular one that re
