Entered at Pendleton poatoClce as second
class matter.
It Is not difllciilt to conceive
that, for many reasons, a man
writes better than he lives.
For, without entering Into re
fined speculations, it may be
shown much easier to design
than to perform. A man pro
poses his schemes of life in a
state of abstraction and disen
gagement, exempt from the en
ticements of hope, the solicita
tions of affection, the Importu
nities cf appetite, or the depres
sions of fear, and Is In the same
state with him that teaches nit
on land the art of navigation, to
whom the sea is always smooth
nnd the wind always prosper
ous. Dr. Johnson.
AS OTHERS SEE US.
The first public criticism made by
the party of German agriculturists,
which recently passed through Ore
gon, was upon the lack of Improve
ments and farm conveniences In the
TVcst
The second criticism upon Ameri
can farming was to the effect that
American farmers work too hard
that they numb the enjoyment of
term life by a pitiless haste during
long and Incessant hours of labor.
These are the views of expert fann
ers from one of the leading agricul
tural nations of Euroie. If their
opinions are sound and their judg
ment just, the American can Im
prove his condition by being intro
duced to hts own failings
In the first place, a comparison of
BicthodB and convenience should
pot he drawn between Germany and
Oregon. Germany has been farmed
for 150O years. Orogon 5u. Germany
fc. striving to recuperate a soli worn
out by constant use. for centuries.
Oregon is trying to produce the larg
est possible crop from virgin soil,
wftti no thought or saving Its
strength.
Germany Is fanned In small tracts
by people who are rooted to the land
hr tradition nnd occupancy, and who
cipect to remain In the same home
for life; Oregon and the West is
fanned largely by men who are try
ing to make a stake out of farming,
itii which to retire or enter other
business.
The Gorman wants to grow the
greatest variety on the smallest
space; the Oregonian wants to grow
the greatest yield and clean up the
largest possible profit In the shortest
fpace of time
The German farmer Is fixed in his
sphere and conserves Ills strength
atid" substance with that view; the
ITeatern farmer of this year may be
tbf president of tho hank next year,
and so his labor and aim are tinged
with ambition.
Many of the largest and moat pro
ductive farms of the West are not
-occupied by their owners. Improve
ments are made to meet the bare
needs of the laborers upon the farm
during seeding and harvest time.
In Germany the farmer lives upon
lis little tract of land and improves
it in the highest manner possible, for
the farm is the home for all the gene
rations of farmers. In Oregon and
tfcu great wheat belts of the West,
lkt farmer in a majority of cases con
stantly looks forward to the time
when he will he able to move to the
rtty, where educational faciiuiOH and
social advantages are more satisfac
tory. This causes a constant upbuild
ins of fine homes In cities and a con
tint deterioration of farm improve-
The rule does not apply to all farms
1b all farming communities, for there
are thousands of farms In the West
just ns highly Improved, Just as
closely managed nnd Just ns zealous
ly benutitled as any In Europe. But
the possibility of the farmer becom
ing something else In the freedom
or this government, and In the prom
ising opportunities of a now country,
makes the farm, In many cases, a
stopping stone, a stopping plnce. on
the way to higher ambitions.
That American farmers worU too
hard, there Is no doubt. The very
possibility of the fanner becoming
the capitalist, causes him to put every
nerve under the highest tension. In
hopes of getting rich and afterward
taking it easy. The result Is that the
real enjoyment, the slow anil staid
appreciation of country life is more
or less benumbed by the hurry.
An American will plow tnree fur
rows around the Held while an old
country German Is hitching tip his
team and lighting his pipe. The
American is working for a stake and i
wants It to come Just ns quickly as
possible so he can quit work. The
dream of a fortune is constantly be
fore him. He can't take It easy.
The old German, rooted to his an
cient holdings, thinks of the quiet
enjoyment as he goes along. Saves
his strength. Euts four meals a day
In harvest.
Conscious thnt he is only a farmer
nnd must so remain, he makes the
most out of the life. He don't hurry,
for he would only grow old more
quickly by it. The farm is his only
hope, so he puts all the enjoyment
possible Into It and lives as he goes
along.
For these reasons, the German ex-'
pert saw the vast difference be-',
tweon the Gorman and the Oregon
farmer.
It is n mnttor for regret that the
landmarks of early Oregon historj
have not been better preserved, says
the Southern Oregonian. Features
whose interest would increase with
the years have been suffered to be
dostroyed through Ignorance or in
difference. In 1S53 there was some
trouble with the Rogue Ulver Indians,
though the war did not occur until
two years later. In 1S53 General
"Joe" Lane, whose name Is Insepara
bly connected with the historj- of
Oregon, made a treaty with the Rogue
River Indian on a spot which is now
included within the present city lim
its of Grant's Pass. He met the In
dians under a black oak tree on
Rogue River, Just above the "White
Rocks." Old-timers are still able to
point out the stump of this tree, but
the tree itself has been cut down and
sawed into stove wood in these latter
years, probably by some man who
never heard of Joo Lane.
Pendleton If now plentifully sup
plied with Idle men of all descrip
tions. Harvest hands are coming in
in great numbers ; professional ho
boes and hard characters ot different
kinds are sprinkled In the collection
and the police court is collecting
fines and dealing out good advice at
all hours of the day. The petty pil
fering from box cars is the only
crime so far reported, but It will lead
to worse, when closer vigilance puts
a stop to this. Every city in the
Northwest complains of the same sur
plus of Idle men who are willing to
remain Idle. The only remedy for
this Is a general determination on
the part of cities to harbor nothing
hut bona fide worklngmen, who can
give evidence of their good Inten
tions. The idle class spends no
money in the community and is a
constant menace to those who work-
The Telegram pertinently snyh: "If
a roward has to he offered for per
sons who commit crimes, what is the
uie or maintaining a sheriff's office
and a police force, witli all their fa
cilities for catching criminals? Mult
nomah county pays out something
like $100,000 a year for a police de
partment, and a lot more to feed idle
deputy sheriffs, and yet the cry is
made that rewards should be offered
for criminals."
It would be pleasing to Oregon if
she could believe the paper railroad
stories now afloat. One of the most
gigantic propositions yet sprung In
the West. Is the unnounced new road
to be built by Harriman, from Rod
Rock, Montana, through Ilolse City.
Ftraous the World

be n happy day for Orogon, if she
could believe this Btory. It would
mean the opening of an empire al
most ns great ns the settled portion
of the state today. It would open
to settlement one-third of the area of
Idaho, and fully one-fifth of this state.
It Is scarcely more than a dream,
however. Oregon Ir accustomed to
these opiates, which are Intended iu
cause her to forget her painful
freight rates.
The settlement and reclamation 1
from Idleness of the great Canadian j
wheat belt, by Americans, reads like ,
a fairy tale. Thriving cities, busy j
and prosperous communities and
hamlets are thickly studded all over,
that vast northern territory. Noth
ing that is valuable remains idle lone

WHAT ONE WOMAN DID.
Mrs. Eliza I). Ilurnz is dead at SO,
In New York. She was the first pro-,
lesslonnl woman stenographer. Half j
a century ago Peter CooiKsr gavo her,
a room where she could tench other
girls how to become self-sustaining.
That was the beginning. .
'
And since; Think of the immense
army of young women who are bread- '
winners by the nld of stenography, j
In Eliza Hurnz's day there was a prej- J
udice against husines women thnt nl-1
most amounted to persecution. Peo- j
pie were so narrow-minded thnt they ;
could not understand how a woman '
could associate with men In n busi
ness capacity and still be refined nnd
honest.
Now there Is no prejudice to
amount to anything,
In New York alone there are more
I than ."in.Oiii) stenngraplH'rs. In the
entire country it would be folly to
hazard a guess at the number. The
i skvscrapers and office buildings are
full of them. Some of them support
brothers and sisters, sick parents and
Invalid husbands. Mnny have used
stenography as a stepping stone to
higher inlngs in the commercial
world, and have become managers
and even proprietors of business
houses. There Is no reason why a
woman should remain nt the foot of
the ladder, because destiny placed her
there.
w
In no manner has the woman sten-,
ographer failed. She is to be trust-
ed. She is often the custodian or bus-!
iness- secrets worth a king's ransom, j
In a thousand offices she knows as
much nbout the business as do the
proprietors. She tnkes me place or,
memory for many a business man.
She is growing in numbers nnd effi
ciency, and the world .wonders how (
It ever got along without her. !
The human being who helps others '
to help themselves is a benefactor.
Monuments have been reared to
those who did fur less for humanity 1
than Eliza a. mini!'. Spokane rross

jury nt Astoria
Health is a magnet which irresistibly j
draws the man to the woman in life's I
mating tune. Health does more than j
tint the skin with beauty ; it puts music I
into the voice and buoyancy iuto the
etep, as well as happiness into the heart.
A great many women covet Ixsauty and
are constantly seeking aids to beautify
them. Let a woman first seek perfect 1
health and nil other charms shall be
added to her.
There can ic no general health for
women while there is disease of the
delicate womanly organism. The first 1
step to perfect health is to cure womanly I
diseases by the use of Dr. Pierce's Fa- I
vonte t'rescnption. It establishes regu
larity, dries weakening drains, heals
inflammation and ulceration and curea
female weakness.
