Its pavements puro anil clean. Where shadowy forms lilt side by side On the road called ".Might Have Been." But folks walk thero with their heads bowed low, And heavy eyelids wet. For every corner Is haunted so In this. "The Land of Re gret." They meet the ghosts of those other years In dreams of memory sweet, And wet with passionate, fren zied tears The graves which llo at their feet; But never, long as their lives shall last. Can they again forget Who onco have walked with ghosts of the past In this, "The Land of Regret." Thoy feel the touch of a hand grown still, Its lingers softly press. The tender passion of kisses thrill Their own In a fond caress. Ah, mat but pity the folks who stray Whore long the sun hath set. And walk with the ghosts who've laid away In this, "The Land of Re gret." Pall Mall Gazette. FOR PENDLETON'S BENEFIT. Just now whllu Pendleton and Umatilla county are seen at their best while the bumper wheat crop Is ripen trig, while the city Is In her gayest robes of flowers and foliage and while the country Is heavy laden with all the various crops for which It Is noted, an excursion should be run from Portland and all hy-statlous to the great feast and celebration to be held by the Umatilla Indians during the Fourth of July week, on the res crration. Portfand and the Willamette valley cities would be deeply interested In this feast and In these grotesque or Sles of the Indians. Tho people of Umatilla county do not appreciate the historical value and interest of these Indian eelebratlons, because of their constant contact with tho Indl ana, but people trom a distance would enjoy them ami it would serve to farther advertise the wonderful in tercsts of Umatilla county and Pen dleton. No other city In the West has tho historical environment that Pendleton and the Umatilla Indian reservation enjoy. If the Commercial Association would Invito the surrounding coun try to witness these Indian festivi ties, the railroads would be glad to ran excursions for tho occasion, from all points to accommodate visitors to this city. Arrangements could be made to run the excursions on tho days that would bo most highly In tercsting in the Indian celebration, and thousands of the residents of tho anctropolls would take advantage .of this unique Oregon celebration. As tho tribes of the West become aaoro and more Imbued with the wlilto man's ways, they lose Interest In their natlvo colourations, and tho his. lorical value of an Indian feast and dance should not bo underestimated try those interested in tho progress or tho country. It is worth tho of lurt to bring tho crowds here. Baker City expects to run nn ex cursion from Portland during tho ses sions of tho mining congress in tho Utter city in August. Pendleton can bring thousands of visitors hero right at a time when aho would bo soon at her best, and should not miss tho opportunity. around Hoosevolt and tho unknown democratic candidate for president, Idaho will fight out tho question of polygamy In her homes, and from advance indications the fight will bo extremely bitter yot non-partisan. In 1 Southeastern Idaho, whore the Mor . moil settlement Is most dense, schools, politics, public policy and ' county ofllces are dominated by the Mormun vote. That section of the state Is tho Mormon stronghold, and In speaking of It, the Bolsu States man says, In disputing the statement of Judge Quarlcs that Idaho can sup press polygamy: "How would ho punish a polygamlst In any of tho southeastern counties of Idaho? Does he suppose a polygamlst could be held for trial there or that a Jury would convict? Does ho think ofll cers of any of those counties would arrest offenders, or that tho magls tratos would Issue warrants for their arrest? Does ho think n prosecution could be Inaugurated or maintained? If lie does think so ho does not un derstand the situation. This Is not a temporary condition that will change with the passing of somo wave of public prejudice; It Is fixed and unchangeable. A great church, exercising unbounded power, controls the sentiment of Its members on the question, and, so long as It shall ex ist, It will mnko It Impossible for any state where It has many members to suppress tho practice of polygamy." The young painter of New York, whose picture, "The Peace Pipe," last year took the first Hallcarten prize available for American artists under 35, can hope to add nothing to the fnme of the Umatlllas by distrib uting portraits of them through the art galleries of the East. Major Lee Moorhouse, with his world-famous photographs has Introduced the Uma tilla Indians to the world, fully and artistically. Tho Photographic An nual, the highest art collection of photographs made In the United States, which circulates through the very heart of tho exclusive art world of Europe and America, has placed j this peoplo before the artistic spheres of both continents In a thrilling and interesting manner. Five of Major Moorhouso's best Indian photographs appear in the 1904 number of this collection, accompanied by an article from him on Indian photography, which hat been quoted all over tho world as authority on Indian photog- rapny. The hints dropped by Major .Moorhouse s art havo induced Ean ger irving cjouse, ouo of tho most famous young American artists to moke a summer trip to the Umatilla reservation, for the purpose of study ing their characteristics, in hopes of getting new art ideas from contact with the tribe. His pictures are not ed for their originally and dash, but whatever he does In tho lino of por traying native Umatilla characterls tics, or surroundings, must now tako a second place In tho art world, for tho .Moorhouse photographs have pre ceded him to tho hall of fame. tween Ituslsa and Japan Is still young and Its chances are tho subject of. universal speculation. . It is shown that In the Civil War out of 210,712 wounds treated by tho surgeons of tho Union army only 922, or about four-tenths of one por cent, wcro caused by bayonets nnd sabers. Who could have guessed that any thing like that very smnll proportion from tho llteraturo of tho war period? In the Crimean war. whore tho Bus Blan tendency to get to olpse quarters wns encouraged by tho conditions of tho conflict, the saber and tho bayon et were more active, causing 2 per cent of the wounds received by the British and French soldiers. t Absolutely ure But In tho Franco-German war of 1870-71 tho bayonet and tho saber to- gothor could claim less than one- third of one per cent of the casualties J suffered by the German armies. It Is , the bullet nnd the shell, especially t the rlllo projectile, no thicker than n lead pencil, neither picturesque like J the saber nor Imposing like tho , mnsses of steel and Iron hurled out of great gnus, which has always In modern times done the really tie-1 8tructlve work of war. j So, undoubtedly It Is the rlllo which . 5 Is tho chief weapon of tho conflict between Itussla and Japan.

WE FURNISH YOUR WORK, The issuo or Mormonism nnd po lygamy is becoming moro nnd moro plainly drawn in Idaho, nnd Instead of tho all election bolng waged Every day records tho death of one or moro of tho pioneers of Oregon. Soon the roster of those who came in tho fifties will contain no names of living heroes. It Is now halt a cen tury since that great immigration of tho fifties poured Into Oregon. Most of tho hardy men and women who dared tho wilderness wero at that tlmo In the early prime of life, so those who remain are Hearing, or past tho three score and ten mark, and many of them nro crowding tho century mark. The honor of having been a pioneer of tho fifties will in crease, as the world comes to know nnd understand tho Oregon country moro closely. Annually, for many years, the' sin- glo survivor of an Illinois regiment, which fought gallantly In the Mexican war, holds a reunion, calls the roll of the dead, and in a single, solemn audience with .himself pays tribute to those gono and to the deeds of valor that distinguished his soldier band. The old fellow probably feols that It he Is lonesome ho is still in pretty good company with hlmsolf and his memories of the olden time.
