Copy for advertising matter to appear In tbt East Oregonlan must be In by 4 :4S p. m. of the preceding day ; copy for Monday's paper mnat be In by 4 :45 p. m. the preced ing Saturday. Only for a little while Sunny days consent to smile; All their charms must fade away In our mists of wintry gray. Flowers must wither; leaves must fall; Hushed must be the robin's call, Summer blooms but to beguile Only for a little while. But the snows will melt at last, Days of storm are quickly past; Just the same as days so gay Sun and shadows shift and play. Quaff the pleasures while you can; Bear the sorrows like a man, For the tear is, like the smile, Only for a litle while. Washington Star. WILL IT BEAR I'HVIT? From all the oratory, enthusiasm, harmony and good will exhibited at the meeting of the Oregon Develop ment League, some good should cer tainly come. ll seems idle to think that such a body of progressive citizens could say what they say at these meetings, do what they do at these meetings and act as they act at these meetings, and mean absolutely nothing in the end. Something is surely back of it all. Something will surely come of It. Or egon needs such a body of men. other states and interests are organ ized against the Interest of Oregon. California capital is invading the state and diverting traffic to the San Francisco gateway to the Orient. Washington capital Is organized In the effort to divert traffic by way of the Puget sound gateway to Alaska and the Orient. Oregon must unite, Portland must make good her luminous and silver lined promises. A meaning and a purpose must be injected into the talkfests. Capital must be Interest ed in rescuing Oregon's trade from the grasp of her opponents in the commercial world. The Clearwater country, Wallowa, Harney, John Day, Morrow and Grant counties, all beckon to Portland's Idle capital. Empires are sleeping in those interior districts. Cities and manufacturing centers, now unknown are sleeping in the possibilities of those rich territories. But talk will never build a city nor level out a railway grade. Talk will never sound a steamboat whistle on the Columbia, nor lay a track Into Wallowa. Theer has been plenty of talk for the past 35 years In Oregon and the rnsrarles are still a barrier In the Columbia river. Talk has overflowed at banquet boards and feasts In Portland for a century, and hogs are still driven on foot out of Wallowa county a distance of 50 miles. Oratory has resounded in Portland . corridors for 35 years and John Day spuds and wool are hauled by freight wagon to Pendleton, a distance of 100 miles from the Interior. Talk won't do it. It takes coin requires nerve. It WHY THE HERALD DIED. The liquor Interests of Baker City have circulated the report all over Oregon to the effect that the Baker City Herald died because merchants withdrew their support from It after It Indorsed Sheriff tJrown In his law enforcement campaign In that city, and that the merchants took this action at the command of the liquor dealers, on the threat of being boy cotted of they continued to patronize the Herald. In the first place the whole story Is a lie, from end to end, and in the second place, this Is the worst adver tisement for the liquor Interests that hus ever been sent out, even by their enemies, because It is an admission from them that they will rule or ruin a community In either a business, social or financial way, here they are not checked. The statement that they would take such action, will serve to unite all de cent business elements against them. The admission that such business methods are part of their procedure will serve to determine the people in ridding the country of such a possi bility at the first chance. The Baker City Herald did not die because of any action of tile liquor interests. In fact, it was a represen tative and mouthpl'-c.e of the liquor Interests from the day it was found ed; that Is. when It represented any local element, on any public question. It was founded for an Illegitimate purpose and when Balllet's money ceased to flow into its accounts. It began to dwindle. It was an off spring of Balllet's Illegitimate min ing operations, circulated free of charge to everybody who would al low It to come Into their homes. If It could collect from Baker City peo ple, all right; If It could not. It was run anyway, to advertise Balllet. So hiu'lng been founded on this basis, it was Impossible for it to live when its parent and supporter ceased to supply It funds. It never had a business existence. Its rates were never uniform and fixed. It was sim ply a free lance fed upon graft and made to serve an illegitimate purpose. Attempts to resuscitate It after Bal llet's blood money ceased were un successful. Its subscription list was never bona fide. Its advertising pat ronage was never basea on fixed rates for all advertisers, but it took what it could get. Its editorial utterances never voic ed a healthy public sentiment of Ba ker county. For the past year it has not printed a column of original edi torial, using entirely the plate stuff sent out to country papers using the "pony" Associated Press dispatches. It played on the passions of the community by trying to be sensation al, by making a column story out of a dirty police court trial, while It neg lected to give the Vgitlmate and de cent news. . It fed on moral carrion and flung this so-- of stuff to the saloon elements for their edification. It never represented anything or an Interest in Baker County excepting Balllet, who Is now In Jail for his crimes against the government. Decent papers nor decent people need not fear this story being circu lated by the liquor interests.' There is no truth in the statement and if there was, the same methods could not be applied in a community where Balllet are unknown and where papers have a legitimate foundation in the hearts of the people. The Oregonlan presents a diagram showing that lb saloons have been located within three blocks of the main entrance of the Lewis and Clark fair grounds. The Oregonlan does not recommend nor demand any change In this appearance presented to the visitors to the fair, It simply publishes the diagram, saying In re gard to the matter, "The Oregonlan simply presents the facts." No one familiar with the Oregonian's atti tude in regard to the liquor interests and gamhiers of Portland expected it to do this much. An outspoken op position to the spread of saloons In to the residence districts and to the very gates of the fair, coming from the Oregonlan, would be a shock from which the political rings of Portland would never recover. But It need not be expected. Had Caesar Young been In his place, as a husband, at the time he was killed, New York city would be better off. financially, to the amount of 195,000, the cost of the trial of his alleged murderer. Nan Patterson may have killed him, but that does not excuse him for being out of his place. He Is to blame for all the consequences of his act. CLERGYMEN LIVE LONGEST. In his book on "Nerves in Order," Dr. fchofleld, formerly examiner for the (British) National Health society, gives a table of longevity which shows that the Christian mllnstry Is the most healthful of callings. Here Is his list, the occupations being ar ranged In order of longevity: Clergy (Church of England); Dis senting ministers; farmers, agrlcul tural laborers, grocers, lawyers, drap ers, coal miners, watchmakers, artists. shoemakers, bakers, clerks, chemlstB (apothecaries), greengrocers, tailors, doctors, butchers, painters, musicians, cab and 'bus men, sweeps, publicans metal miners, bankers, London la borers, barmen (barkeepers). A curious and an Instructive list. We make only the obvious comment, that clergymen live the best lives and consequently the longest; and the farmers come next. ''With the Pro cession," Everybody's Magazine for May. FRANCIS J. IIENEY. In the May number of Everybody's Magazine. Mr. Bailey Millard thus de scribes the government attorney, who is making so much trouble for the land grafters of the Pacific coast: "Francis J. Heney. the same In trepid spirit who represents the gov ernment In its avenging course In Or egon, has worked to as fine purpose in California. Heney is a bright, clear-eyed young man, formerly at torney general of Arizona, who came to the front as a shrewd, able handler qf big law cases In California. When, after listening to many complaints of land iniquities in the West. President Koosevelt determined to strike at the root of land graft In California, he appointed Heney as an assistant t the attorney general of the I'nited States to prosecute the offenders. At once he began to storm and escalade what had seemed the Impregnable position of the the grafters. He has measured steel with many a mailed warrior of Graft. He has put to rout the boodling host; but there Is still a redoubt In which a band of the ini quitous ones has taken Its stand and fights stubbornly, using the ugliest of weapons for example, enlisting women on Its side to besmirch the character of Its assailant. At many a stage of his superb battling. He ney's life has been In danger; but he has valiantly fought on and has glo riously won." TREES. There survives a willow tree of Ba bylon that is the sole relic of the reign of Semiramls. There are oaks still living In England planted before the Norman conquest In 1068, and the Yew trees at Fountain Abbey that are older. An elm tree was planted In 1605 In Paris, which still lives. Our charter oak flourished for more than 600 years then went down in the storm of 1854. It furnished material for several carloads of walking sticks, snuff boxes and other articles. In Lombardy there is a cypress tree whose antiquity reaches back 40 years B. C. It is estimated that the sequoia of California are us old as Christianity, and some palm trees are supposed to be as venerable as the pyramids. The African Baobab tree is the oldest and largest specimen of vegetable growth In the world. We are told by General Brisbln that one was seen In the Cape Verde islands within whose trunk, overlaid by 30t) close layers of wood, he dis covered an inscription carved by two English travelers three centuries be fore and the age of the tree was es timated at 5159 years. Garibaldi planted great groves of Eucalyptus trees in the malarial sections of Home. The tree was n great grower and a transformer of muck Into pro toplasm, an absorbent of mud ami moisture, which It promptly trans ports Into the great laboratory of gre.n leaves. Snlect Ion.

"Oh, he's spent It; bought the fel low's automobile with it." Have been suffering from Impure Blood for many years, having Boils and othei Eruptions. Having heard of S. S. S.

I saw S. S. S. advertised and decided to try it. Aftei taking three bottles all Boils disappeared and I have not been troubled any since. Gko. G. FhrTio. 114 W". Jefferson St., Louisville, Ky. Newark, Ohio, May 23, 1903. From childhood I had been bothered with bad blood, skin eruptions and boils. I had boils ranging from five totwenty in number each season. The burning ac companying the eruption was terrible. S. S. S. seemed to be just the medicine needed in my case. It drove out all impu rities and bad blood, Riving me perma nent relief from the skin eruption and boils. This has been ten years ago, and I have never had a return of the disease. . Mis, J. D.

"Simply for the wunl of a little strength and vitality," says Druggist Itrock, of the Brock & McComas Co., "there are millions of people In this world, and a large number right here In Pendleton, who are dragging them selves around half dead and half alive, and It hardly seems to them that life Is worth living.
