So closely are Hcppnor and Pen dleton Morrow and Umatilla coun ties linked together by ties of friendship, business and fraternity, it seems their loss is from our very threshold. Families of pioneers who founded both towns and tied the bonds be tween them, have perpetuated and strengthened those bonds until Hcpp nor Is but an addition to Pendleton a sister settlement separated by a narrow ridge of hills. One-fourth of Heppner's population had relatives In Pendleton. One fourth of her homes had loved ones In Pendleton homos. No wonder the first news of her disaster thrilled this city and filled the streets with anx ious, heart-breaking people, afraid to ask for the latest reports. No wonder tho roads leading to the stricken district were lined witli pale faced horsemen and hurrying crowds of men impatient to know the fate of thoso they loved impatient to reach them In their dire needs, Impatient to give aid to those who had .boon strip ped of everything on earth. Calamity makes the world akin. But there Is something deeper and keener In this near-by crasli than Is experienced on ordinary occasions, equally as awful, though farther re moved. In this sorrowful happening almost as many family ties are broken in Pendleton as in Heppnor. United so closely, with Interests Interwoven, with brothers and sisters In business In both places, visiting back and forth, making new friends at each meeting and reunion, It seems that a part of Pendleton herself, is swept away. The property damage Is beyond computation now. The slow work of years of home building and home beautifying is wrecked in one Instant. The accumulations of years of hard labor and economy aro scattered in the wreckage of that fateful valley. Lives In the bloom and lives In the ripened maturity of age were swal lowed up without warning. Neither the strength of manhood nor the pit eous plea of Infnncy could slacken nor soften its ruinous touch. The picture Is one never to bo for gotten. Helping hands may smooth over the ruined waste and raise again the destroyed homes, but there Is yet that tragic loss of hundreds of hu man lives which will always remain to send a thrill to the heart of those who remember this Hoppncr horror. on the experimental farm at I)gan and has produced 42 bushels to the acre, n crop of tills is to o raised every year. The experiment farms will bo maintained at statu expense for five- years, when It Is thought that the people will gladly carry tho work forward at their own expense. The howls nnd Clark fair commia sloners acted wisely in refusing to go on a special Junket to Investigate the St. Louis buildings and spend monoy In prlvnto enjoyment, which wnB ap propriated for the public good. Portland butchers say the secre tary of tho state health board un Justly arraigned them for selling Im pure meat. They oppose any strict meat Inspection. There Is a cry for good horses all over tho Inland Empire. All kinds and conditions of horse stock are in demand. A SIX-ACRE MAP. Ono of tho most remarkable changes that is noted In American home life during the past Ave years. Is tho gradual decline of tho meat eating habit and tho Increase of tho cereal diet. The beef trust and the vogotarlans are combined against tho butcher shop. It seems, The experiment of dry farming will soon be tried in Utah on an extensive scale. The state, with the co-operation of tho farmers, will establish flvo farms. Tho ground will be ployed 20 Inches deep and In tho fall will be plowed the second time. Experiments will bo made with Siberian wheat. This wheat has roots extending four feot in the ground. It has been tried Growing on six acres of a gentle southern slope of Tesson Hill at the Louisiana Purchase Exposition, hi. Louis, is the largest geographically correct man ever constructed. This map is 480 feet long from east to west nnd extends from north to south 240 feet. The map is the main feature of the large open air exhibit by the bureau of plant Industry of tho department or agriculture, and Is personally superintended by D. A. Brodle, late superintendent of tho Western Washington Experiment Station, under tho direction of Prof, W. J. Splllmnn, agrostologist of tho United States department of agri culture. A belt of bluo grass lawn 20 feet wide establishes the boundary uud coast Hues of this gigantic map, which will cost the government con siderably more than $1000 por acre. The boundary lines between tho states are marked by cinder paths three feet wide. The territory com prising tho 14 states and territories of the Louisiana Purchase is marked by a white gravel walk. The states themselves are to be planted in growing products of uie state. Tho cinder and gravel walks serve as promenades, and are of sufficient width to permit the free passage of visitors. Tints a labyrinth of pas Eagoways Is created and the visitor may wend his way through the maze and see by actual demonstration Just what crops are grown In every part of the United States and how they are raised. The cereals will bo tho features of tho great Northwest, while down In Florida will be seen growing pineapples and orango and other semi-tropical fruits and crops. Tobacco will be a prominent feature oi Kentucky's allotment, while sugar cane and cotton will bo found grow ing in the plots of ground represent ing other Southern states. Not only will the products of each state be shown on this map by grow iug crops, but the section or the state In which each commodity Is most grown will be shown. In the groat Northwestern states of Washington and Oregon, the map at St. Louis shows that wheat, corn, potatoes, hay and the wild grasses that thrive In the semi-arid districts aro more largely grown In the eastern portion, while in the west hay, clover, vetches, timothy, orchard hay and grasses, hops, strawberries, raspberries and blackberries are more grown. Thus on a small plot of ground that repre sents ono great state will be found a score of different crops growing. There will be no actual dividing lino botween the growing crops, though In cases of tho various grasses, wheat, barley and buckwheat, tho line is as distinctly drawn by a wave or color as Is tho line that divides muddy waters or tho Mississippi from those of tho comparatively clear Ohio at the Junction or tho two rivers nt Cai ro, III, West Coast Trade. tmn ln nnn ntnmmlt nt Mm AniCrl can's strength his rnco Integrity."

No pathway meets tho wanderer's ken Until nn airy point he won, Whore, gleaming with the setting sun, Ono burnished slicct ot living goiu, Loch Katrine lay benentu him rolled From the steep promontory gazed Tim Mtrnneer raptured anu amazed. And "what a scene were here," he cried. For princely pomp or churchman's pride. On this bold brow, a lordly towor; In that soft vale, a lady's bower, On yonder meadow, fnr away, The turrets of a cloister gray; How blithely might the buglehorn Chide, on the lake, tho lingering morn; Hnw sweet nt eve. tho lover's lute Chime, when the groves were still and mute, And, when tho midnight moon Bhotlld lave Her forehead In the silver wave.

The New England Society of St. Louis gave a dinner once upon a time and Judge Henry C. Caldwell, of somewhere farther south made n fow remarks on "A Blend of Cavalier and Purltnn." The remarks are pointed enough to be interesting even on a somewhat, sultry day. "When I fall into the hands of one of these despots cnlled toastmasters, I feel like the old darkoy down In Arkansas who had lost four wives. After he had lost tho fourth his pas tor called on him nnd asked him how he felt, to which lie responded: 'Well, Brother Johnson, I reol llko I was In the hands or nn nllwlse and unscrup- ulus Providence, I have no business here anyway. I am not n Now Eng lamler, but very far removed from them. I never wns In Now England but once In my life, nnd then I got lost in the labyrinths of Boston and had to give a man a dollar to take me to my hotel and I was not drunk cither. I had not forgotten the namo of my hotel, however, nnd I was that much better off than the colonel from .Missouri who forgot the name of the suburb near Boston he wanted to go to. He said to the hotel clerk. "It runs In my head. Its name Is some thing llko 'whisky straight,' though that Is not It exactly." "Oh," said the clerk, "I know; you mean 'Jamaica Plain. Yes." said the Missouri colonel, "that's it." nnd immediately ordered two whisky straights. Tutuilln, June in. THE WHITE MAN IN AFRICA. "The footprint of tho white man Is like the footprint of the elephant," says n Swazi native proverb; "It re mains In tho ground." Another proverb: "White- men aro like, nnd yet unlike quails. When you see one In your country, you will soon see f. flock. But tho quails leave you agiln the white men never." Slnc'j Swaziland became a protector ate of tli a Tiansvaal there Is some prospect of a trunk line from the coast to Johannesburg being made through It.

Dr. Dixon, of Now York, talking recently on the negro question, said: "Haco prejudice Is of two kinds. One Is a mean thing. Tills Is the prejudice which proceeds from the fear of another race's superior pow ers or abilities. Such Is the prejudice against the Jow. It exists simply be cause the Jewish race Is tho most persistent, powerful, commercially successful race that the world has ever produced. Thousands of them have been assimilated In America and thousands moro will bo assimil ated. "The prejudice against the negro Is In the instinct or self-preservation, I record here tho prediction that I, as a Southern man, expect to live to see that day when the whole people or tho South will build n statue to Abraham Lincoln In tho capital of the confederacy." Ho called attention, howovor, to Lincoln's words: "I bcliove that thero exists bo tween tho races, white and black, a physical difference which will for over forbid their living together on a plane of social equality." "In 50 years," Mr, Dixon said, "there will be CO.000,000 negroes in this country at the present rate of Increase, and thore are but threo solutions of the problems to raise the negro to our leve), to sink to his, or to remove him, "The negro Is the menace, there- duel the dark was a favor ite -with duelists. Two men were locked in a dark room and crawled stealthily from corner to corner, until some false step made one ol them the target for bullet or blade. Life is a duel in the dark with disease. One false step, one mistake, and the attack couie3 swift and sudden. The mistake which commonly opens the way for an attack by disease is neglect of the symptoms of stomach trouble. When eating is followed by undue full ness, belching, sour or bitter risings, etc., disease is attacking the stomach. The best way to frustrate such an at tack is to use Dr. Pierce's Golden Med ical Discovery. It cures diseases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition, and makes the body strong and healthy. "I was suffering very much with my head and stomach," writes Mra. W. C.
