I-lfe Js man's best expression.
It Is a movement outward, an
unfolding, a development. To
be tied down, pinned to a task,
and to have the shrill voice of
necessity whistling eternally In
your ear, "Do this, or starve,"
is to starve, mentally. Art Is
the expression of man's joy in
his work; If nobody loved their
work, and put their soul Into It,
there would be no art. Elbert
Hilbbard.
THE MONEY CRAZE.
Jlost of the:lnmates of the Umatilla
county jail arc youne men and a ma
jorlty of them are charged with try
ing to obtain money through some
other channel than hard work.
Unfortunate, in the extreme, is this
condition of affairs. Unfortunate for
the young men and for society.
If the opportunity to earn an hon
est living did not lie in every path
and every road In Umatilla county,
voik. Tlnjio will be no saving, and
besides it is better to have the re
corder "lected than appointed. It is
also better to keep the officers as
near the people as possible, by letting
the people choose them. ( The county
lecorder's office is a necessity in
Union county and should not be merg
ed with that of the county clerk
COUNTRY DEVELOPMENT.
The long, tedious road cases tried
In the courts at great expense and
often with most unpleasant conse
quences In the neighborhood, remind
all travelers of wagon roads, that the
laws covering the location, construc
tion and maintenance of roads are in
sufficient for a growing country.
As th-j county Is mqre densely pop
ulated, the avenues of communication
highways, telephones; mail routes
and telegraph lines must Increase In
number and efficiency.
Where Individual rights stand In
the iay of development, 'It places the
county at Ihe mercy of personal in
terest.
Every man wants the full value of
his property, when he sells It, and Is
entitled to this same value when the
property Is taken for the public good
Hut It. Is an indisputable fact that

Why arc boys driven to seek

Jeasons exist for forgery, theft and

It Is the craze to possess money
.With which to be a "good fellow." It
is the feeling of loneliness which pos
sesses a "broke" man, In the society!
Of today. It is the desire to go withj
the crowds, end spend money lavish-1

Not one man in ten who forges a
email check, buys a suit of clothes or
b pair of shoes with , the, money. He'
"blows It," as the common expression
goes, and receives no benefit what
ever from its use. This demand for
money to spend In being a good fel
low comes from the Inclination to be
sociable; It is. encouraged by the
false Idea that hilarity is enjoyment;

SENATOR PIERCE WANTS NEWS
Senator Pierce has introduced a bill
to compel the Associated Press, a cor
poration, to serve to ai newspapers
applying for It, the news service of
that corporation.
The franchise controlling the news
service In Oregon has been owned by
the Portland newspaper combination
for years.
A rival paper could not secure tho
service, although the people have
' urgently demanded that the news bo
furnished to all publications desiring
It. A trust of the most obnoxious
j form has been maintained and fatten
ed In Oregon. Tho rights of the peo
ple have been ruthlessly trampled
upon.
