r.ut one day the owner of the field
came out and was angered to find
that none of his hired men had cut
the wheat and it was wasting in the
winds. Then he decided to bring the
reaper and harvest It without delay.
"Now, my chlldri," said the lark,
"we must move."
The people find the same condi
tion prevailing in the enforcement of
the law. Where the statutes are writ
ten In plain and unmistakable Eng
lish, the various officers declare they
are not supposed to be the ones to
enforce the laws. Tb sheriff declares
that it is not his duty to enforce the
law against gambling and Sunday
opening of saloons; the district at
torney declares that he is not the man
to enforce the law without instruc
tions; the mayor declares he Is not a
detective and does not know that the
laws are being violated; the city coun
cil says It has nothing to do with It;
every officer elected to preserve the
law has found some excuse for not
being responsible.
So the people must harvest their
own wheat.

SPIDER SILK.
GUARD THE TRADE.
The Sumpter Valley railroad Is
making a flank movement to capture
Pendleton trade by diverting the wool
hipments from Grant county to its
terminus at Tipton, Instead of per
mitting thein to come by way of Pen
dleton, as formerly.
The superintendent of the road
says in a recent Interview that the
freight on the wool clip is not what
it desires, but It is to secure the bus
iness created by making Tipton the
trading point for freighters hauling
wool, that causes it to enter this ter;
litory.
If the Sumpter Valley captures
the wool shipments, she will soon cap
ture the herds of cattle driven reg
ularly from the interior to this city
for shipment, and soon all the excel
lent trade enjoyed by Pendleton mer
chants in that territory will go glim
mering. But what is the remedy, when the
ailment is caused by inevitable pro
gress in the interior?
Because Pendleton Is a competitive
railroad point, she can hold most of
this trade. She can offer cheaper
freight rates on the products of the
interior cattle, mutton and wool.
Baker City cannot hope to compete
with this point as a shipping point
for cattle, sheep or wool destined
either east or west.
Better roads into the interior, bet
ter and larger stocks of goods to se
lect from and organized business ef
forts on the part of Pendleton mer
chants will hold most of tills trade.
Even concentrates from Grant
county mines are shipped by way of
Pendleton to Everett, where they are
treated. This fact should stimulate
Pendleton to make more strenuous ef
forts to hold this interior trade and
add to It in future, despite railroad
building. Every freighter who comes
to Pendleton with, a load of wool,
concentrates or lumber takes back a
load of merchandise.
It is up to Pendleton business men
to see that freight rates from this
point to the ultimate markets of the
products of the interior are such as
to be a standing Inducement to that
trade to make this city its outgoing
gateway.
Yesterday's news dispatches stated
the president was getting along very
rapidly with the details of his plan
for reorganizing the Panama cirtial
commission.
The old commission was composed
of distinguished civil engineers and
an admiral and a general, appointed
with high salaries, perquisites, honors
and responsibilities less than a year
ago, and all are now to be retired.
They have failed. Multi-headed com
missions for a work like that must
ever fail.
The chief men, Admiral Walker
and General Davis, no doubt excellent
men In their way, and once able and
energetic men, are at least 22 years
past the Osier age tf usefulness. En
gineer Wallace is to be appointed to
do the work.
He is young, energetic and above
all has done similar work on the ca
nal connecting Late Michigan with
the Mississippi, a work in magnitude
scarcely second to that of Panama.
The country, it is thought, will hear
from him and his hundred steam
shovels in the next 12 months.
The spirit of youth, which means
vigor, strength and accomplishment,
is abroad In the land, and It is ex
emplified and recognized by a youth
ful chief executive. Old men for
counsel, perhaps, but young men for
shoveling dirt along the Panama ca
nal is a change of policy that will
lead to positive results.
According to a report of United
States Consul Hunt, at Tamatave, the
Industry of drawing silk from spi
ders, which the unappreciated phil
osophers of Laputa undertook two
hundred years ago, is now under way
on a commercial scale In Madagas
car. The female spinning spider of
that Island (Nephlla madagascarlen
sis) grows to a length of two inches
and a half and swarms in millions
about the capital." The silk Is reeled
off by native girls, each of whom has
a basket filled with live spiders at
her side. She takes out a dozen, fas
tens them In a frame, draws out the
ends of their webs and combines them
In a single thread, which is passed
over a hook and attached to a reel.
The girl then sets the reel to re
volving with a pedal, and. like the
public under the manipulation of the
trusts, the spiders have to "give up."
Unlike the public, however, they are
said to suffer no discomfiture from
the operation. When a spider's sup
ply of silk is exhausted it is taken
back to the park to recuperate, and
in nine or ten days it is ready to de
clare another dividend. After going
through the reel Ave or six times It
becomes discouraged and dies, having
yielded In all between two and three
miles of silk. Even with cheap labor,
spider silk is expensive. It takes a
thread over thirty-five miles long and
nineteen strands thick to weigh an
ounce, which makees the flber cost
about $ 40 a pound. Collier's.

THE LARK'S LECTURE.
An old lark raised, her brood in a
wheat field one spring;, and about the
time the crop was ripe. It became
apparent that the lark's home would
be destroyed by th reapers.
The young larks became alarmed
because 'the owner of the field sent
a hired man Into the field to begin
reaping, and begged their mother to
move at once.
But there came four or five hired
men Into the field and none of them
began reaping, each finding a differ
ent excuse. One said the crop was
not ripe; another said It should be
bound and not cut by the reaper;
another that the grain was light on
the (tround and the yield would not
pay the cost of cutting and so on.
As long as these fellows were par
leying about "the crop, the old lark
