Kntcrcd at Pendleton postofllce as second class matter. for handling the mnil, It Is highly proper that Pendleton ask for a night clerk for the office. Two prin cipal malt trains pass this city In the night one at midnight and ono at 5 o'clock In the morning and there Bhould be a clerk at night to make up the mall for those trains at the; latest possible moment so all tho mall business of this city may re ceive tho attention It deserves. At this time no mall for nearby points Is delivered to No. C, tho east-bound morning train and the mall for No. G, that passes here at midnight, is closed at 9 p.. m., so that a great amount of important mall lies In this office while a mall train passes here, going each way, Pendleton needs the night service, llaker City eiljoys It. It will be furnished here on the proper representation. A physical culture class has been organized In Pendleton and a largo number of business men have taken active and strenuous lessons. The exercises have almost revolutionized social customs In Pendleton, and It Is not uncommon to hear such salu tations on the street as these: "Good morning! What Is your chest ex pansion?" "Why, I am delighted to see you, Mrs. Limber Jim! Can you touch the floor with your fingers without bending your knees?" "Rood morning, Mr. Portly! What did you weigh this morning?" "Delighted to see you, Mrs. aprlgiitiys urn you find any new muscles In your anat omv. nt tho last exercise?" -moss mo! You alive yea, Mr. Stlffjolnts! Arc you wearing a poultice today?" "Well, well, sister! How Is Hov. Sedentary today?" "O, just lovely! Gained four pounds In four lessons and found a cell In his left lung last lesson he had forgotten all about since his football days." "Good morning, brother Short; can you stand on your head yet?" "O, with ease, sister! Are you taking tho Jaw development movement?" I manifestly amazed afterward, to have tho orator of the morning come down to greet him as .cordially and familiarly as In tho woods. Ho man aged to stammer bis thanks, and added: "I ain't much of a Judge of anything, parson, but I rlzo with you and sot with you, nnd saw the thing through tho best I knew how, but all tho samo, If my opinion's wuth nny thing to you, tho Lord never meant you for a Bhooter."

"When I 'go down to my grave can say, like so many others, 'I have finished my day's work;' but I cannot say, 'I have finished my life.' An other day's work will begin again tho next morning." Victor Hugo. i It is a sad text but Is Is worth talking about. It's very sadness may be some girl's salvation. If it is, the mention of It will bo Justified. A I companion of perhaps ono hundred j Pendleton girls is cold In death to night rand such a death! Tho men tal anguish that preceded It and tho j physical agony that accompanied It, no tongue can ten. she was young and buoyant nnd easily Influenced Portland people aro kicking at their milkmen for adulterating the milk supply. People who would complain of such a rare article as Bull nun water In their milk arc hard to please. Tho milkman can't afford to buy nectar to mix with his product. bomething of the enormity of tho burden of a great city's government may be guessed by knowing that in tho borough of Manhattan, 11,000 cases of all kinds are filed for trial nnd the utmost capacity of tho court Is but 5,000 cases a year. Last year tho new cases filed outnumbered the cnucs tried by 4,000. Dishonest men actually take refugo in this disas trous delay of Justice to beat their way through business. The Confederate Veterans of Mis sissippi have just passed a ringing resolution condemning the lynching and burning of negroes in tho bit terest terms. In recent years somo of tho most revolting vengeances In the history of tho country have been taken on negroes In Ohio and Indi ana. The South has human feeling and sympathy, deeper and moro easily aroused than that of tho more stolid North, and this stand of tho Mississippi veterans Is refreshing and Inspiring. Oregon Is waiting, Whistler; turn the water on. Let the desert blos som Whistler; hurry up the dawn! Sand dunes 'neath your touch will waken Into smiling fields; desert wastes aro throbbing, Whistler, with their unborn yields! See the idle mountain torrent, dancing to the main; wasted floods mean wasted harvests, ripe with golden grain! Yours the task to spread tho verdure on tho barren waste; yours, the magic word redeems It; "Whistler, please mako haste! I She listened to her arch-enemy in I stead of her mother's pleading, She know not what she was doing. She was only a girl. Think of It and I turn back today. If you have been ! tempted to keep bad company, shun It. If you have been approached by some destroyer In the guise of friend, spurn him, and think of the end of this young life. There aro dozens of young girls in Pendleton too young to be In places of which their parents aro Ignorant, strolling tho streets, flirting and carousing late at night, who aro going wrong by tlegrees. VIciousness creeps over human life by Inches. It grows over the soul llko nn eclipse slowly dimming the noonday sun. Ero you know It, the happy, buoyant girl Is the dnrk-fouled wretch, ready for any fate. Think of It. Turn back, while this memory Is fresh. Congressman Williams, of Sllsals sippi, yesterday introduced an amendment to tho Dlngloy tariff bill. placing salt and hides on tho free list. Being a democratic measure, It was promptly voted down. Tho tar iff on salt Js 12 cents per 100, which tho Umatilla county sheepman pays. In addition to tho .exactions of tho salt trust and railroads. Is It any wonder stockmen aro kicking at $15 a ton salt this spring? If salt wero free, n saving of 92.40 a ton would ,bo mado, which on 300 tons used In Umatilla county for sheep, nlono, would mean a saving of $720 a year. Now that tho Pendloton postofflco Is to bo remodoled and refitted with neat and convenient quarters for tho postmastor and ample facilities There are several newspapers in the Inland Empire, tho solo oxcuso for their existence being that they belong to one or tho other faction of tho republican party. They pub lish no live news. They tear down wnat the other side builds up for the good of tho state and to this very eminent In Oregon politics is due the backward condition of tho state. All tho energy of tho factions Is expended In lighting each other and In fortifying official positions to defeat the other fellow. Congress has refused to give Oregon her just dues In tho past because the faction opposed to the ono In office has con tinually fought any improvement in order to make a bad showing for tho side In power. The entire forco of the organization has been expend- ed in distributing the patronage in such a manner that tho other side Is left out. The coming state campaign promises to be a rehearsal of the old drama that has been listened to for 30 years. Oregon needs now blood, She has political senile decay. Pendleton can afford to select tho best site In the city and present It to the order of the Women of Wood craft If they will bring their perraa nciu neauquarters hero and erect a magnificent office building. This is a central point with regard to reach Ing all portions of tho Pacific Juris diction quickly and conveniently, Tho mall facilities are not to bo equaled on tho Pacific coast, ond the city offers tho best possible educa tlonal home nnd moral surroundings, uuiming will no erected some where this season and nil the head offices will bo located pormnnontly at somo point on tho Pacific coast. Tho citizens of Pendleton and tho Commercial Association can bring these offices hero by tho right kind of nn effort. It means ono-tuiith of tho patronage of the Pendleton post- ofllco; it means at least 20 addition al homes hero, nnd that many per manent high-salaried officials and employes who will become fixtures In Pendleton social and business cir cles. It Is worth going after. He knows at last, what sorrow Is, Who has no tears to fall; But only for life's tragedies A laughter cynical. Theodosla Garrison, The merits of the open confession of the other fellow's shortcomings have been quite fully Illustrated by the newspaper fraternity of North Tutuilla of late. Tho profession seems to be In a deplorable condi tion in Unit burg, nnd the field for somo aggressive missionary work among the brethren very Inviting, Dr. Lindsay Parker tells the follow ing story: An old Irish Protestant preacher had announced tho major and minor prophets as the subject of his discourse for a certain Sunday. For an hour and a half ho talked of tho major prophets, assigning each to his proper place. Then taking up the second division of his sermon, he said: And now we come to tho minor prophets; what place shall we give to Hosea, A tnll man rose from one of the back seats, and, with a reverential bow. politely said: "If you pl'ase, sir, ho can have my place; I'm going out." M. A. P. tells of a distinguished author, who for the sake of quiet took up his abode In bachelor quar ters In town for the more zealous pursuit of his work, and from these quarters wrote to his wife telling her about being nlono with solitude. And when tho anxious lady hurried to console her lonely spouse, she found that solitude was dressed in white muslin and was sitting on her husband's knee the minx. The Octopus Was Made for Love. The Octopus was mado for love. As his construction strange will prove; In fact, he lays It over us, The smooth, seductlvo Octopus. Suppose, for instance, ho should ride With her he hopes to mako his bride, And, her embracing, should let fall The reins, 'twould matter not at all. While holding her with utmost grace, Close in a long and fond embrace, He could a dozen arms detach Tho loosened buggy reins to catch, And If a man with just two arms Enjoys embracing female charms, A hundred times the pleasure thus Enjoys the lucky Octopus. And when tho parting hour doth chime, Releasing one arm at a time, He need not leave tho maiden meek, Until the middle of next week. Bishop Dudley, of Kentucky, was once on a hunting expedition near Louisville, and happened to fall In with a local nimrod whose uncon cealed admiration of the city man's marksmanship paved the way for further conversation. "What's your name?" the countryman Anally in quired. "Dudley," was the reply. Af ter some oxebango of Incident and experience the bishop's interlocutor hazarded: "Say, Dudley, what bus). noss do yon follow?" "I'm a preach er." -un, get out. What are you giving me?" "But, I am. I preach every Sunday." "Whcro?" "In Louis ville." "Well, well; I never would have thought it. You ain't a bit stuck up llko most of tho preachers down this way." An invitation to hear this new-made acquaintance preach was accompanied by a scrib bled card, and the next Sunday saw the rustic ushered Into tho bishop's own pew, whero ho listened Intently to both servico and sermon. Ho' was FOR THE BLOOD The best known and most popular blood purifier and tonic on the market to-day is fa. S. S. There is hardly a man, woman or child in America who has not heard of "S. S.
