And over their efforts, and

CI'GIXMNG A ItEVOLlTIOX.
The Pacific Coast Is now facing
Qhe most serious and far-reaching
vxtwaval in the history of the gov
ernment, if President Roosevelt earn
estly pursues his investigations Into
aJw- land frauds.
Xo man can guess the stopping
race, nor estimate the number of
a-rstiiluent officials and Influential
wtliseus to be Involved In these ills-aa-sceful
revelations.
Oregon is already In the meshes of
wae rnqulsltors, Idaho will soon be
mtenged into an etjually sensutfonal
a? roar and the inspectors are also
aeonting on the trulls of Washington
aruiirru lions.
It is the beginning of a revulutiou.
Tfce president will not stop, it Is alleg
es!, until the last infamous nest of
neves Is smoked out. He is deter
aw'ued to clear the government of this
was species of fraud, at least, and he
net the hearty co-operation and en
awuragement of every good citizen.
Hardless of party, affiliations or
rrjudice.
If the frauds are prosecuted to the
await and. the rascals weeded out, as
at .now seems they will be. one of two
awMientous results will follow: Either
awe present political power of the
thwest states will be entirely un-
led in the revulsion of feeling
eainnt the party that is largely re
smslhle ' for shielding the thieves
ad dishonest oficlals, and a new
ewer will come into possession of
awe states, or else, the republican
arty in those states will drop the
anvicted officials as though . they
ere vipers, as It have done with
ator Burton, In Kansas, thus pre
serving the Influence of the party,
as large by sacrificing the officials
Mart have so long been at the lead.
H the republican factions take up
aw fight and attempt to defend the
anatused officiuls, against whom the
rcidence is unmistakable.. It will cer
ananly mean the utter destruction of
atae power of the entire party in the
atwrlliwest. . But if the officials are
SBBBdiated, abandoned . to their fate,
he Integrity of the party will be pre
served and the riddance of the thieves
U1! only serve to make it stronger,
aecause the riddance was accomplish
we by a president from Its' own
awiiks.
NOW, FOR THE SCHOOLS.
Vmatllla county is proud of the ag
twraltural and horticultural exhibit
www being collected for the Lewis
sad Clark fair.
Tiie breasts of farmer and fruit
sawn swell with pride as they contem
ajaate the display of Umatilla county
sources that will greet the eyes of
wintering strangers.
But what of the schools? What
eaaacatlonal showing is to be preaent
aat to the world from Umatilla coun
' Kven more people are interested In
tas feature of Umatilla county's ex-
hllbt. for every home In the oounty
will be especially concerned In the
quality, extent and classification of
the school exhibit.
While the 'county court Is In ses
sion itow, something should be done
to encourage and assist . Superinten
dent Welles In his work of collecting
and displaying the educational ex
hibit. So far, his hands are tied. The
county must be represented, yet he
has no funds with which to purchase
cabinets for the display. These nec
essary features must be provided. The
cost will not exceed 12U0 it is thought,
and the cabinets can be retalued by
the county, to be used in future ex
hibits, and will become permanent
assets of the county superintendent's
office.
The educational exhibit can be col
lected without expense, as the teach
ers will send all reports to the su
nerlntendent'se office. where they
will be classified, prepared for a
creditable display and made ready
for the fair. All that Is needed Is a
set of cabinets. In which to dlspluy
the exhibits, and the county should
be glad to supply these, in order to
make the best possible showing for
the schools of Umatilla.
This county must not be In the sec
ond or third class, in the general
average to be cast In the Lewis and
Clark fair.
- The educational work is here. It
can be collected without cost, und the
expense of placing It on exhibit, in
first-class condition, should be borne
by the county.
It will cost Oregon J200.000 to
maintain her insane asylum for the
next two years, according to the es
timates of the secretary of state, be
side a deficit from the past two years
of $12,000. This is the most extraor
dinary Item of expense to be met by
the state. The enttentiary expense
will be but S60.0UO for the same
period, and the entire cost of the leg
islative session will be but ISO.OUO.
There is something truly alarming
in me increase or the asylum t
penses. It may well cause anxious
inquiries from the legislature.
The statehood or Colorado should
be taken from her, until that Infa
mous gang of political spoilsmen are
routed from Its borders or leurn to
conduct a state In a civilised manner.
The election frauds that are perpe
trated there year after year, are dis
graceful, and are a severe rebuke to
tne Intelligence of the voters, and
the honesty of the officiuls. Indian
Territory would not conduct such a
disgraceful fiasco as Is presented in
Colorado with each succeeding elec
tion. ITHSE OF MISI1T SHOES.
The national curse of the t'nlted
Stales Is no longer the drink prrtblem.
It's a problem of walking and
shneB.
Teachers attending the National
Association convention at the Audi
torium annex made the discovery
thut 90 per cent of the women and
many of the men do not know how
to navigate the streets properly.
"Sliding." they say. "Is not walking.
and the 'kangaroo' high step Is a Jar
to the nervous system."
First William Schuyler of St. Louis.
startled the assemblage' by announc
ing that by close observation he had
discovered that a vast per cent of the
women school teachers of the coun
try did not know how to wnlk cor
rectly. ' "They simply slide along In the
easiest manner possible, paying no at
tention to the rules of physical cul
ture, of which they are supposed to
have at least some knowledge," said
Mr. Schuyler.
As this statement was nut disputed,
even by the women teachers present.
It was allowed to stand.
Then President William H. Max
well, who la superintendent of the
public school system of New York,
contributed the last link fn the ohaln
of evidence by denouncing the man
ner of walking of ordinary mortals
as well as teachers.
"It Is a national evil a gigantic
evil," said Mr. Maxwell. "And It Is
brought about largely by the fact
that people wear misfit shoes." Chi

TO RAISE COTTON PRICKS.
The Georgia farmers who gathered
at Fort Oaines and burned 1000 bales
of cotton hope to Inspire similar sac
rifices ail through the South. It Is
rctually proposed that 2.000,000 bales
be destroyed, each state burning Its
fair proportion. The purpose Is to
reduce the supply of the staple and
so put up the price.
Some years ago, as the result of a
"bumper" crop, a movement was
started to limit the production of cot.
ton and raise the price on the plan
that each farmer should reduce his
acreage by a certain percentage. The
result was that the prospect of better
prices led many farmers to plant
more than ever. It remains to be seen
whether Texas and Mississippi grow
ers will not look on Georgia's cotton
fires as beacons of hope, nnd store
their own crops on the chance of a
rising market. New York World.
The order of the United States gov
ernment removing duty charges from
all Imports for the Lewis and Clark
exposition has now gone Into effect
While exhibitors from foreign coun
tries will be permitted to Import their
wares duty free, the strictest regula
tions will be enforced to see that the
order is not taken advantage of by
smugglers.

A COMMON THOUGHT.
Humanity, when measured In the
mass.
A Bwarm of Nothings, bound for
Nowhere, seems.
Sprung from the ground. Its energies
repass
Into material monuments. Earth
teems
With glurles turned sepulchral. She
is decked
With mocking ruins, architectural
dreams
Of Wealth and Empire never to be
wrecked;
From which the scholar gains con
jectural gleams
What mure? of races lost; the vile,
the brave,
The wise, the benutlful, in one vast
grave.
If this, that seems, were true; If hu
man life
Stops here; conies here, In cere
ments to be hid;
If the fli'Ht spadeful on the coffin lid
Sounds the last note; If the heart's
mighty strife
Against the dogma of Eternal Death
Is vain as 'gainst a breeze an in
fant's breath;
Natheless. t were well to live; to
hold the hand
Of love still closer; to upbuild the
earth
Into new forms of Heauty and expand
The Mind with Art, with Music
und with Mirth. "
Henry Austin In Century.
YOITH.
She had the fluttering eyelids
Like petals of a rose;
I had the wiRdom never leurned
From any musty prose.
She had the melting ardor
That hesitates, yet (lares:
And I had youthful valor's look,
That Is so like despair's.
She had the tender hearing
or daffodils In spring:
And I had sense enough to know
Love is a fleeting thing.
She had the heart of tinder;
I had the Hps of flame;
And neither of us ever heard
Procrastination's name.
She had the soft demeanor.
Discreet as any nun's;
And each of us has all the Joy
Ood gives his foolish ones.

PERIL IN THE HAND-SHAKE

said: 'The moat delicate perfume upon tlie

aad toe moat refined are not free from dis
ease of iangs or tbrost, and the germs are
Tepidly apread by touching tne band that

The breath one inhales from the lungs of
another may contstn germs of disease. Yon

consumption, but many thousands of cases
have been known where persona who were
suffering from incipient phthisis, or the
early stages of consumption were absolutely
cured by Dr. Pierce Golden Medical Dis

by enabling him to eat, retain, digest and
assimilate food. It overcomes the gastric
