Walla Walla is expecting every
man, woman and child in Pendleton
who can leave business for a half day,
to help her properly celebrate the
visit of the president, and she should
not be disappointed. It should bo
the special aim of Pendleton to go
and greet the president and party,
and help a neighbor city do honor to
the nation's chief. Owing to the
greatness of the Americnn nation, and
the limited time which the president
set aside for this trip, it Is Impossible
for him to visit one-tenth part of the
interesting sections of the United
States. It is unfortunate that he can
not see all the points of Interest, hut
Pendleton is fortunate In being so
near a point that he will visit that
she can add her enthusiasm to the
occasion.

JOHN MITCHELL, OPTIMIST.
The splendid presidential train
pul)ed up Monday morning, May 4, at
the depot or little Hugo, Col. At the
same Juncture a lot or cowboys in full
regalia or chaps and bandanas sur
rounded the rear car, drawing up their
bronchoes with a stiff jerk.
Over at the roadside a prairie
schooner was backed up. Its rear
gate let down showing the battered
tinware or a cowboy cupboard. The
regulation scrap or dirty- canvass
made an awning to keep the butter
from melting in the bright Colorado
sun. In the rear was the camp fire
with all tlio lares and ponntcs or a
half hundred campaigns. The bounc
ing lid or the coffee pot hanging to an
improvised crane told that "steam
was up."
It was the camp or the great "round
up" or Eastern Colorado.
people and the capitalists that John
Mitchell is an optimist, a thinker, a
reformer and a conscientious man.
His power over American labor Is
greater than that of any other living
man. His council is heeded as an
unwritten law in labor circles, every
where. His calm, dignified demeanor
through all the ordeal or the coal
strike, his keen sense or right and
Justice and his willingness to discuss
with capital every point in every issue

One moment or thoughtless speech,
from John Mitchell would Inflame la
bor cricles from center to clrcumfer
auee. One word from him would close the
doors of ninety-nine per cent of the
coal mines In the country, and this
calamity would strike dumb the In
dustrial nerves or the nation.
It Is fortunate for the people that
John Mitchell has the heart or the
optimist and hopes for the best.
It Is fortunate that he has the
level head or the born leader to back
up his power. Otherwise, the indus
trial situation would be more grave.
The danger or a weak man In such
a responsible position is appalling to
think of.
As he was during the dark hour or
the coal strike, so Is he now the
same strong, thoughtful, leader of
men, realizing his power and having
the sterling manhood to UBe It ror

The iieriodtcal is a serious attempt

across a frying pan full of nicely
browned potatoes. "It seems like old
times," said the president, dropping
the lid of a pine box from which he
took a tin plate and iron fork. He
knew the cowboy custom. Each man
waited upon himself.
Helplug himself to a biscuit from
the Dutch oven, he reached for

out for him a tlnful of rich brown

HOPELESS CASES
When the doctor leaves and says the
case is hopeless, what remains to be
done? Nothing, if the doctor's word is
final. Much, if you will listen to the
statements of men and women who were
once "hopeless
cases " given up by
doctors, and who
were perfecth and
permanently cured
by the use of Dr.
Pierce's G o 1 d e n

sure than that

diseased lungs,
obstinate coughs,

restored to perfect
health by the use

CHURCH DISCIPLINE RELAXING.
Father Ignatius, a Protestant High
chnrch clergyman, who dresses like a
mediaeval monk, has startled London
by a vigorous attack on society and
the churcn. Among other hard things
he said:
The English ladies have forgotten
how to blush. Many hardly know
their own children.
The Welsh Methodists are giving
permission to their ministers to
smoke: They want to see them with
pipes in their mouths and military
mustaches.
Another church Is allowing Its
priests to go to theaters and mix with
half-naked ballet dancers. I have
known a case where a dancer kicked
up her legs on a vicarage lawn to pay
church expenses." Exchange.
