Even more wonderful than tho stupendous pbys leal undertaking Is the quiet, master' fill way In which the work will he done, showing that man is exhibiting himself nowadays oven more grandly in the manner of doing things than in tho results which ho achieves. Uncle Sam leads the procession. In this case he Is organizing a unique army, in size It may compare Insig nificantly with the 309,000 troopH ho had in the nevolutlon, tho 2,772,000 In the civil conflict, or tho 274,000 in tho fight with Spain, hut In most re spects It exceeds them all. It means some io.000 men under carefully trained commanders, arm Mi with tho latest tools and equipped with machinery compared to which mere guns ore as simple ns Christ mas toys. This army will march Into the zone of revolutions which have disturbed the world and work a revolution which will contribute to tho world's happiness, It happens curiously as to date. A hundred yearH ngo from 1800 to 181C Napoleon was revolutionizing. Ho oont mo resources and Industries of the people to military ends and made Europe a graveyard. In Uncle Sam's now army human life is Ihe first consideration, and the great purposo Is peace; his regiments are more sanitary than sanguinary, and the ammunition boxes, Instead of bclns filled with gunpowder and bullets, carry antl-toxlns, antiseptics .and quinine. Prance constructed the Suez Ca nal, but at frightful cost of human life and with every form of political and social corruption. It attempted tho Panama Canal, hut left ruin In every dollar It spent, every spadeful it dug, showing the Importance of a big Idea without moral support aim protection. la the now army things will bo dif ferent. Tho 30,000 men will be equal to any 100.000 In Nnpoleoii's days. Thoy will surpass twice their num ber In any period of the building or t tho Suez Canal. They will make very tame tho efforts of tho French on the Isthmus In ail tho years of failure. They will represent the best organiz ed nnd most effective force over known whether It be In war. In com- fliorce or In industry. Thoy will meet difficulties worthy of their powers. To dig a canal 49.09 miles from 3fi feet depth or wnter in tho Caribbean Sou to 30 feet depth In tho Pacific, does not seem, such n wonderful feat at first glance, but the work Is larger thon oven tho supreme test of faith, for It not only involves tho removal of a mountain, but It goes deep below tho surface. There are 43,000,000 cubic yards of earth to be taken from tho Culebra cut, and a great (lam 2.54C feet long must bo constructed across tho Ohagres river, .with foundations 128 feet below tho level of tho sea, tho maximum dopth being 310 feet. Somo count tho coat as seemingly largo. Suez, they say, is ninety miles longr, with an investment of 100,000, 000, and that is tho most exponslvo canal over constructed, Manchester is thlrty.flvo and a half miles long, with an Investment of about 180.000, 000, while tho Haltlc and North Sen Canal is sixty-one miles long, .at a cost iot only $40,000,000. The. Pana ma Canal is estimated at $184,233,000, Including $40,000,000 for the French concession and property. But that represents construction more expen sive than tho three great canals of the world all put together. Pendleton Invites the neighboring cities or Umatilla county to join hor in celebrating the glorious Fourth. Let us concentrate our enthusiasm In one spot this year. Tho flrBt condensed milk factory In Oregon Is ready for operations at Hlllsboro on June 1. Oregon import- cd 40 carloads of condensed milk last , year, and yot boasted of owning 200,-1 000 milk cows. ABOUT- THAT COAT You wear a coat. Why? To keep the cold out? No; to keep the warmth in. What of the body that has no warmth the thin, poor body that lacks the healthy flesh and fat it needs ? For such we say that Scott's Emulsion provides the right kind of a coat. Why? Be cause Scott's Emulsion builds firm, solid flesh and sup plies just enough fat to fill nature's requirements no more. That means bodily warmth. We'll send you a umple free uoon request.

Delay and defeat the building of the portage road by tho state, the open ing of the Columbia river to naviga tion. Is the cry! The effort is being Alonzo Ciarcelon, of l.cwlKton, who -il years ngo beenme governor of .Mnlne by a curious political accident, was ill) years old on Thursday, He Is still In such vlgoious health that. Instead or sitting In a rocking made to create sectional Jealousies, chair to receive the congratulations to turn the people of the different sec Hons ngalnst the project by using the lerereudttni ns a club, while selfish Interests direct the wielding of it. Ilrazen voiced agents ate being hciiI out over the state to secure signatures or voters to referendum petitions with this end In view. Why? Ue cause the sum appropriated by the last legislature Is to bo used to tbe fleeing of the river nbovo The Dalles to navigation. If this money was certain to be wasted, as Is alleged; was innderiuato In nmuuiit lor the purpose, there would be no cry against the expendi ture by the parties at Interest, but since It Is to be spent resultrully and with lull rrults to the people or tho great Inland Kmplre. to those or Portland and tho rest or Oregon, the hand or Ksau uppenrs to direct nf ralrs while the voice or Jacob Is heard nl his neighbors, be went down to New Orleans to attend a convention ol' physicians and surgeons. Dr. Oarcelon ranks with ex-Cblur Justice Peters among tho grand old men of Maine, being loved by nil men, legnrdless of politics, and he Is 10 years older than tbe venerable Una gor Jurist. When he was born, In a log house nt r.owlston Falls On the Androscog gin, there were but seven bouses where now stands tho pronucleus t.ty of l.owlston. He at first desired to become n civil engineer, but wns dis suaded from that idea, on the ground that theie never would be any rail roads In Maine worth talking about, nnd so he studied medicine Instead nt Ilowdoln College nnd In Cincinnati, wns graduated from the Western Col lege nt the head or his ohiss and came homo to practise his proresslou In l.ewlston.
