If all men were Just,
If the mighty were kind and
the lowly could trust,
What more would the old
world need?
Alas with our cycles of
creed and deed
Our struggle for dominance
strife for a crust
We scarcely have planted
the seed!
Aud yet, thro' It all, the
drouth and the dust
And the choking weed
God's sunl.ut and sweet,
cleansing rain
Would cover with blossoms
the famishing plain

which could bo located elsewhere therefore, as an economical energy

Some respect to civic environment

"It means to succeed I though
everybody knew that." ,
"To succeed In what?" I ventured.
"Why, in what you want to do. of'
course.
And I kissed the little girl once on
the forehead aud twice on her dim
pled chin, and let It go at that.
But It may be assumed that there
is no such thing ns success in a bad
business. To succeed in injuring an
other would be a calamity for me
not a success. Wi ntl want to suc

best possible results to ourselves,
and the least possible harm to others.
So success means, first, to achieve
what is good for yourself. And, sec
ond, to do that which bestows a ben
efit on others.
showing a disregard for common
rights of property owners, the coun
cil must scrupulously guard every
point In which the property, health,
or well being of the community are
involved.
The public school average In Pen
dleton Is higher and the work now
being done better than ever before.
The policy of E. B. Conklln, as city
superintendent has made the schools
what they are. From a small, undis
ciplined high school of IT members
tour years ago, he has bunt up a
high school of the best standing,
mentally and physically of over 100
members, with a graduating class of
12 this year. If a fair estimate of
the work of the city superintendent
Is desired, a talk with patrons and
scholars Is recommended. In the
entire city, there is one unanimous
sentiment in favor of the policy and
the personality of E. B. Conklln, and
this spirit of hearty enthusiasm
which has gradually brought the
schools up to their present grade of
excellence, is due to iur. Conklln's
persistent, tireless efforts to make a
i school that would meet the require-
ments of the age. Not alone In text
books, but in by-education such as de-
remo
bating, oratory, music, athletics and
literary work, outside of the regular
course, the Pendleton high school
excells any other in Eastern Oregon
It is a standing invitation to Uina
tilla county people to make Pendle
ton their home, for school purposes,

If all men would ffut strive to
be just!

If men were but true to give generations the race of native Ha-
waitans will become extinct. The
main causes, as set forth by Lucien
C. Warner in the Outlook, are Inter
marriage and the poor state of health
of the pure bloods. Their total num
ber has been reduced from 70,000 in
1S53 to less than 30,000 in 1900. liar
riages between the Hawaiians and
other races are quite frequent, and!
the number of part Hawaiians is
steadily increasing. In 1S72 the cen-

GAS PLANT LOCATION.

arnlngs and capital in that district,
in advance of the establishment of
the gas plant and have first right to
consideration. "
If the gas plant were already es
tablished on that site, and residents
should purchase this adjacent prop
erty and then ask for the removal of
the plant, it would put the matter
.in a different light.
Uut the people are already located
'there and the plant is yet to come.
Notwithstanding that electric
traction has reduced the cost of op

.adding to them. Once, the Dyers i the lines in that city are leased by
mill, the warehouses, the 'woolen and
scouring mills and the electric light
plant were outside of the settled por
tion of the city. Now this district Is
an operating company. The leasing
companies receive sufficient rent to
enable one of them to pay dividends
of over 30 per cent on an inflated
.surrounded by and honeycombed ' value, another pays over 70 per cent
-with one of the best residence dis-
Iricts In the city.
Instead of adding the unpleasant
mess and annoyance of other manu
facturing Industries to that portion
-of the city, it should be the aim of
the council to encourage the estab
lishment of all future manufacturing
enterprises outside of the residence
districts.
Give this matter a fair, impartial
-trial, with the future Interest of the
-city at heart, and the rights of these
home owners in view. It Is not a
matter of today, nor next year. It Is
-a matter that effects the future of
ithat portion of the city, for once es-
:ablished. it will be Impossible to re
move the plant.
Every member of the council knows
that a gas plant Is an objectionable
thing near a home. They cannot
plead lack of knowledge on that
point They also know that the loca
tion of that plant where it Is propos
ed to locate it, would mean a de
crease in home values in that vicini
ty. That it would turn renters,
roomers and purchasers away from
that district aud would affect the
owners of property there In dollars
and cents. There Is no dyning these
facts.
Then by what rule of public policy,
by what reasoning can the council
.permit this injury to many home
on its capital, another 31 per cent,
and another 40 per cent.
MEN AS MACHINES.
Possibly some of my readers may
not be aware that the human body
forms an example of a machine which
yields a very large return of energy
In comparison with what Is spent
upon it in the way of fuel that is to
gay, food.
Physiologists calculate the work
done by the body In foot tons, a foot
ton of work being represented by the
energy required to raise one ton
weight one foot high. A hard-working
man in bis day's labor will develop
power, I suppose, equal to about 5000
foot tons, this amount representing
both the Innate work of his frame in
volved in the acts of living, and, in
his external muscular labor as a
hewer of wood and a drawer of wa
ter. A man's heart, In 24 hours, shows
a return equal to 120 foot tons; that
is, supposing we could concentrate
all the work of the organ in that
period Into one big lift, it would be
capable of raising 120 tons' weight
one foot high. Our breathing muscles,
in 24 hours, develop energy equal to
about 21 foot tons, and when we add
In the actual work of the muscles,
makes about 3000 foot tdns, or there

no success is final. And the reason J
that success sometimes palls or em-j
bitters, is because the person has T.
sat down to enjoy It, not knowing
that every success is a preparation J
for a greater success Just ahead.
Yon must gather your manna every
day. i
So far ns ve know, a successful
lire here Is the best possible prepar- J
ation for a successful life to come.
And while there are uo pockets In aj
shroud, yet the soul you have you'd ji
better not barter clean away. The
soul you have here will be the soul S
you have there else is immortality
vain. And whether the soul is saved T
or not wllfc depend upon whether it Is
worth saving. T
So the highest wisdom, it seems, i
would be the ambition to succeed in
having a soul worth saving.
And to succeed in this ambition.
my advice would be: Don't trouble
much about your soul do not pull
up the vegetables to see how the
roots are growing.
Do your work, and what you are!
will be shown in what yon do. El

TRIBUNE ENDORSES STRAIN.
Taxpayers who were reading the
Morning Tribune two years ago will
remember the hearty support that pa
per gave C- P: Strain as comity as
sessor, and in the exuberance of its
spirits. at that time predicted his re
election despite the republican ma
jority in Umatilla county.
In Its Issue of July 17, 1902. the
Tribune printed the following compli
mentary notice of Mr. Strain's elec
tion over Mr. Buzan, warmly Indors
ed his policy, and prophesied his re
election In 1904:
" 'What the taxpayers want is a
man not afraid to do- the right thing,
regardless of railroad- passes, party or
personal prejudices,' etc., etc., etc.
If Mr. Strain, when he takes his of
fice next year, equalizes taxes on a
just basis there need be no fears of
his re-election agairo in the face of
a 400 or 500 republican majority."

HOLT BROS.
Side Hill Combined
Harvester
The latest Improved two-wheel, side-hill combined harvester has
proven a boon to wheat raisers. It Is 'he most successful, most
economical and easiest machine to operate ever built.
These hap-esters have been given abundant trials right here at
home and all users are highly pleased. None have been dissatisfied
and all are high in their praise.
The Holt side-bill harvester on a side hill Is able to stick to
the side of the hill, while the header will slip down the hill. The
main wheels are vertical, which braces the machine to the side
hills. It works equally adapted to level land.
The Holt harvesters are sold exclusively In this section by
