Shakespeare was an Intel- 1
. lectual ocean, whose waves 1
touched all the shores of '
thought; within which wore 1
all the tides and waves of des-
tiny and will; over which
Bwept all the storms of fate,
ambition and revenge; upon
which fell gloom and darkness i
of despair and death, and the
sunlight of content and love,
and within which was the in-
verted sky lit with the eternal
stars an intellectual ocean
towards which all rivers ran,
and from which the islands
and continents of thought re-
ceive their dew nnd rain.
Robert G. Ingersoll.
BE A "JINER."
Formerly about four leaders in
business circles in the Commercial
Association transacted all the busi
ness of the association. Last night
40 members were present and showed
an active interest in the affairs of the
organization.
This- Is the best sign that could be
exhibited for a general revival of in
terest. It shows that men arc think
ing and becoming interested in the
work of the association. It proves
that an aggressive campaign for
membership has resulted in bringing
into the circle some of the most ac
tive citizens in Pendleton, who did
not before appreciate the meaning of
the Commercial Association.
This campaign must continue. The
suggestion of President Borle that
each member bring in nn applicant Is
worthy of attention. Think what
such a slight task on the part of each
individual means for the association
as a body. Think of a few words of
recommendation, of plain business
talk, on your part doubling the mem
bership, and by doubling the mem
bership, more than doubling its in
fluence for good.
The next thing that should be done
lor the "good of the order," is to ar
range an annual banquet of the Com
mercial Association, so there will bo
some fixed event in the life of the as
sociation each year, to which the
membership can look forward with
pleasure and interest.
Other societies have this feature,
Other organizations plan such events,
and they find that It binds the mem
bership to the organization. This one
pleasant event In the year would add
a zest to the work of the entire year.
The movement to hold meetings
twice each month is good, and now
take up the annual banquet question
and carry It through. Pcndloton is
growing. Every year adds new mom
bers to the social and business cir
cles and adds wealth to the city.
This association must reflect the
spirit of the city. The people of the
surrounding country must know that
Pendleton and the Pendleton Com
mercial Association are Interested In
something besides attracting trade to
the city. They must be made to feel
that both are Interested in furnish
ing every available pleasure and edu
cation that lies within their activity,
and that in ordor to secure the best
results in any movomont It must
come through Uhe association.
obtainable, they have openly uiutl
nled on account of the food and bed
ding furnished them.
The late grand Jury called ntton
tlou to these matters and to the tia
sanitary condition of the building,
anil Governor Chamberlain has lm
proved these conditions as rapidly as
the means nt hand would permit. Tie
can do no more than the legislature
authorizes.
That Governor Chamberlain has
taken a grent Interest nnd pride in
the management of the state prison
Is well known.
It Is also well known that there has
been a persistent and concerted of'
fort to drag down the record he Is
making for political reasons, and this
effort hns met with some success
through the newspapers.
Hut the fact remains that the diet
ary nnd sanitation of the state prison
hnve been approved, and the men are
better fed and cared for than ever
before, nnd their disposition to strike
for still better conditions Is a great
deal like the disposition of people out
side the prison walls to ask for more
when times are prosperous, and to
lie satisfied with loss when they are
already on short rations.
The magnitude of the prison mutt
ny was magnified nbotit four-fold by
the Associated Press for purely po
litical reasons. The mutiny itself, it
is now thought, was planned outBlde
the prison wnlls, by partisans Jealous
of the success of the Chamberlain nd
ministration.
Governor Chamberlain has person
ally Investigated the dietary, and
made regulations at times, and has
given more time and attention to tnv
proving the service in that institution
than any of his predecessors.
The prisoners are fed on the con
gregated dining hall plan, and have
meat three times a week for break
fast, which they never had before.
The general health of the prisoners
is better nnd the discontent and com
plaint less marked than ever before
in the prison and this llot to dim the
business methods of Governor Cham
berlain is one of the many dart
tricks of Oregon politics.
The activity of Japanese torpedo
boats, at the beginning of the war.
was a surprise to the world, nnd now
the fighting qualities of the little men
on land will also be a surprise. In
the face of a galling fire, these lately
civilized Asiatics charged the Rus
sian troops Saturday and Sunday,
and at the point of cold steel put the
czar's troops to utter rout. And these
Japanese wore no amulets, and were
not blessed by JIOHCovlte priests.
The battle is not to the strong alone;
but to the vigilant and active, and
these Japanese, wi.o do not boast of
heraldic ancestry and have only in
the last 20 or 30 years adopted west
ern civilization, possess some excel
louts elements as fighters. It will

DUST VS. DANGER.
THE PRISON MUTINY.
For several months past It has boon
alleged that the convicts nt the Ore
gon state penitentiary are boing un
derfed and mistreated tn other re
spects. Those who were on the "in
side" of the affairs at tho state Insti
tution tiavo freely predicted that
trouble would result.
Tho convicts have threatened on
several occasions to resort to drastic
measures, in order to make these
facta known to tho public.
Thoy have not only threatened,
but, according to tho bent Information
Whether the bacilli that cause tu
berculosis in the. human being are
the same as those which cause it in
other warm-blooded animals, and
even fish, or whether they merely
change their appearance with their
environment, is a question for the
bacteriological expert.
That we may become Infected from
other animals has not the vital In
terest that the undoubted fact has
that we can, and do, become Infect
ed by the germs that other men car
ry about, and that the home, the
place where wo take refuge from the
Ills of life. Is precisely where this
dread disease attacks us.
Inside the four walls of our house
Is where these deadly germs are im
planted, are nurtured, and bring
forth their harvest. It Is nt home
we must begin to defend ourselves.
It Is the part of wisdom to do away
with dust-catching draperies and
carpets. Have tho rugs shaken and
beaten out of doors.
If you must have carpels, sweep
them with wet tea leaves sprinkled
on them. Wipe the furniture with a
moist cloth, not flirt the dust about
with a bunch of fenthers on a stick.
Dust Is dangerous. Itomomber that.

QUARANTINE AGAINST IDAHO.
The procnlamatlon of Governor
Sparks of Nevada, declaring a 90 day
quarantine against the sheep of
Idaho and Utah has arousod consid
erable indignation nmnng Itolsc
sheepmen.
Tho Capital News sounded u note
of warning several weeks ago that
such action would be taken, or olso
the government would step In and
take hold of tho matter, unless the
state administration woke up and did
something to enforce the law to ex
terminate the scab.
President John McMillan of the
Idaho Woolgrowers' Association has
often called tl'ie attention of the
authorities to the prevalence of the
scab In the state, but all to no cf
feet.
It is n well known fact that the ad
ministration is nwaro of the condi
tion of Idaho sheep. It was because,
of that condition that Stnto Sheep In
spector Drossier declined to get out
his annual report by saying the shupp
wero freo from the scab, nolthor did
ho desire to go before tho people
with the truth nbout the matter.

In the city a few days ago, nslted
President McMillan to call n special
meeting of the Idaho Woolgrowers'
Association to see If something could
not bo done to check the spread of
the dlsense If not entirely wipe it out
Mr. McMillan could not see that
the association could do any good
with nn Indifferent administration to
enforce the law. In speaking of the
mnttor this morning to a Capital
News reporter President McMillan
said:
"I am sorry to have to admit It,
but the scab Is worse In Idnho today
than It ever was. I have warned
them as to what was coming, but no
attention would be paid to It. Now
Idaho sheepmen must suffer. Rut
maybe It will prove to bo a good
thing. It will be if it wakes up the
authorities to n proper realization of
the actual condition of nffnlrs."

It isn't ns had out here as some
fellows say it Is. The soldiers out
here are getting "bughouse" drink
ing the native wine, or bino, which
consists of 27 fights and 15 ways" of
killing n man, all for 10 cents Mex.
The chief occupation of the natives
Is building trenches, smoking cigars
and making bolos. Their chief amuse
ment Is cock-fighting. The chief ex
ports are hemp and dead American
soldiers. The chief imports are cof
fins for the dead soldiers and ammu
nition to kill more of them. Tho na
tive house Is built chiefly of bamuoo
and landscape. The Filipino is very
friendly at the point of the ritle.
The climate is pleasant for- nnts,
mosquitoes, centipedes, scorpions,
cockroaches and alligators. They
have established communication be
tween the different islands by substi
tuting mosquitoes for carrier pigeons,
they being so much more powerful
and better able to stand the long
journeys. The Philippine Islands
are on the west coast of civilization
and are bounded on the north by
hoodoo Ism and smugglers, on the
east by typhoons and monsoons, on
the south by cannibals and earth
quakes. The soli is very fertile, and
large crops of insurrectos and treach
ery are produced. The islands are
an appropriate present for a deadly
enemy. Extract from Philippine Let-
