THE FATEFUL

You wear one face In the

And another one with your
priest,
Itut the one you wear with
"finr secret self
Is the meanest and the
least.
One you wear with the artful
foe.
And one with your bosom
friend
Another in that doubtful world
Where Lovo and Avarice
blend!
You may wear them all In the
Jostling world.
Fearless and unafraid
Ilut you can't deceive St.
Peter

There Is no right minded citizen ot
Oregon who will complain of the in

I making appropriations will forever
redound to the credit of the legisla
tures which passed them and to the
broad-minded spirit of the masses
which heartily answered "Amen" as
they were recorded In the annals of
the state. Used a.i Intelligent lovers

"ROOM UP FRONT."
In the Jammed and pouncing street

Trvlng hard to keep from sitting In
koine lutnl strnngor's Inn;
Kvory time wo stopped somu otherB

While In tones thnt thrilled with
earnestness the blue-clad mint

"O, there's plenty room up ront there

It we'd heed that little lesson as wo
struggle day by day;
Tolling 011 and tolling onwnrd In a
dull, hnlMieartud way.
If we'd make a resolution that we'd
do our work so well
That unless the others hustled we'd
bo curtain to excel,
Wo would icol a lot less crowded on

It we'd "stop a little lively" there'd

aspire to.
The hullillng ot a beet sugar fac
tory In Umatilla county and the di
vision of tho mrge farms Into small,
highly cultivated tracts, means that
the value of the tillable lands of the
county, now placed at J3,2fi7,S28,
vsould be increased at least 10 per
tent Inside of three years. That Is
the record In Union county, and It
will be repeated here.
Before it Is time to buy file, for
next winter, Pendleton hopes to havo
stored in her bins and sheds a suffic
ient supply of Hoppner coal to warm
her feet for the season. It is the log
ical fuel supply for this city, nnd all
efforts should bo bent in that direc
tion. It is hoped by Eastern Oregon"
that the mines are as Inexhaustible
as they appear to be now.
It is hoped that the cut in the sal
ary of city marshal is only tempor
ary. The council is to be commended
for its effort to economize in uxpon
ses, but tho people who are sincere
ly interested In good government do
not beliovo that the pay of a public
official should be so low that It would
fall to bo a stimulant to good service.
The motto should be to pay well and
require good work.
The first real snow storm of tho
winter visited Umatilla county on
January 4. Heforo Thanksgiving,
Iowa, Illinois, Missouri and other
Eastern states had suffered intensely
cold spells and the extreme East had
ceji more biting wintry weather up
to Christmas than is experienced in
Pendleton in three winters. Is It any
wonder the West-bound homeseekor
trains are loaded?
Who will bo tho first Pendleton
minister to ask for the removal of
the womt-n'R lints In church? The
custom is Jn vogue In smaller nnd
less progressive townH than Pendle
ton. The Justice and common sense
features of the custom will be rec
ognized by all at a glance nnd tho
only reason that It is not practised
universally is that nobody makes the
start. If you can't seo tho minister
hs be speaks, the sermon falls flat,
It should not bo necessary to ask
tho women to start tho practise, but
they should inaugurate It by commou
consent and example. Hegln tho now

Tho January number ot tho Kuvluw
ot Reviews contains a character
sketch ot Joseph U Urlstow, fourth
assistant postmaster-general, former
ly ot ICansas, who has become such
a terror to tho thlevos In tho postof
flce dopartment. Urlstow has been
Justly called tho "watch dog of the
postolllce," and to his unwavering
hibited his common sense nnd sta
bility of character in the host of
friends he has made for himself and
his company while occupying this
high position in the commercial cir
cles of the West, and he has exhibit
ed hi genius of generalship in 'he
high esteem in which he is held by
the employes in every uepartment cf
the O. It. & N. system. When an O.
It. & N. employe walks into Mr.
.Mulder's office with a Just grievance,
ho finds himself In the presence of n
big-hearted, broad-minded, just man,
commonplace and approachable and
conersant with the minutest details
of the service. No man was over
turned away from this office wlthvit
having been made to feel that ho
would receive absolute Justice. He la
a plain, broad-guage business m.in,
ripe with priceless experlenco In
every branch of railroading and
would take control of the great Union
Pacific system with tho ease and
grace of a master. To his evenly
balanced mind and clear senso of
Justice is largely duo tho extremely
friendly relations existing between
the 0. It. & N". compnny nnd Its boat
of employes and his administration
of the affairs of the Union Pacific
would have an especially beneficial
effect Just now, whan a master hand
Is needed there.

IDAHO DOING HER SHARE.
Kvor since tho passage by the Htuto
legislature of tho hill making appro
priation for tho Ht. Louis and Port
land expositions, It has been persist
ently predicted that tho appropria
tion was ridiculously Inadequate.
Though Idaho cannot afford to mako
bucIi a splurge lis many of her olcUr
sister states, ths commissioners feol
that tho stato has more need of ad
vertising and mora resources to ad
vertise Already tho commissioners
havo received applications for assist
ance In gathering exhibits needed
from all over the atato, which, If
granted, would aggrcgulo over 1150,
