As rise the ocean's beauteous coral Isles, From lowly depths to greet the kiss of day So, we are shaping Life's sub- lime profiles: Shall they be beauteous or for- bidding, say? As silently beneath the waves are massed The fair proportions of the coral strand. So thought by thought and deed by deed we cast Each radiant sphere in which our souls must standi e Bert Huffman. HAVE .NOT YET BEGIN TO FIGHT "Is that fellow never going to let up?" asked one saloon man of an other yesterday, referring to the campaign of the East Oregonlan for better morals and more rigid regula tion of the liciuor traffic in Pendleton. The East Oregonlan has not yet be gun its fight for better morals. It will never let up as long as 16-year-old boys are seen drunk on the streets of Pendleton every day; not as long as drunken men are, robbed by hired thugs who frequent Pendleton dives; nor as long as boxes are main tained for the ruination of boys who do not dare to venture Into a front door. Some people think it requires a crank to ask for the enforcement of law. Ail this Is wrong. What are laws for If not to be enforced? What are legislators paid for If not to regu late society? And If you spurn one of the laws made by the legislature, why not cast them all aside? If one is not to be enforced why enforce any of them? This Is the plain logic of the mat ter. The East Oregonlan respects the law and believes it Is the sacred guide of society. If It is set aside by any and everybody who does not like It, what will be the condition of society. And if cowardly officials refuse to en force the law because tney, person ally, do not agree with them, what should be the fate of such officials? The people should remove them from office without ceremony. As long as there is a dive in Pen dleton which openly defies the laws which have been made for the regu lation of society, lust so long will the East Oregonlan continue Us demand for better morals. It all depends on the law-breaker how long the fight w.111 continue. Public sentiment can 1 changed in time, by agitation, and that is what will be done in this city and county. The saloons will be edu cated out of existence If they do not conform to the laws. SIBERIA'S I5LOODY STORY. Japan has captured the capital of fiaghalien, Siberia's cruel penal colo ny, to which Innocent men and wom en have been marched across count less miles of snow and Ice, many of them dying by the frozen roadside and others knouted Into insanity be cause they could carry their chains no farther. If only Japan could tell to tho world the hidden story of that bloody and revolting charnel house maintained for hundreds of years by Russia, It would awaken the world to the "deep damnation" of the Russian system and cause an International lndigna' Uon which would say: "Blot out her name and memory from mankind." God only, will ever know the awful crimes and brutalities of the Siberian penal eolonles; human speech cannot hopo to picture the revolting scenes that have been enacted by that wretched murderer of the European nations. Let Japan, the barbarian, open the dungeons to the light of day and re lease the chained and hopeless con- ijnic'&,SCabei. vlcts whose lives are being eaten away by heartache and Inhuman treatment. Fifty per cent of the Siberian con victs arc guilty of no crime; they were simply "suspected" by the police and sent without trial to the torturing mines. AFTER THE HOUSE IS STOLEN. Now Oilcans Is now cleaning up, that a yellow fever epidemic Is upon her. She follows the lazy, laggard, In different custom of too many Ameri can towns and cities of locking the stable ufter the horse Is stolen. He- fore an epidemic, and not after It ar rives. Is always the time to clean up. It will do precious little good now to sluice out tho gutters und fumigate the stinking cess-pools and garbage piles. The fever has already fastened its talons In her vitals and all her frantic efforts to clean up now will be of little avail. If she would prepare for disease In time of health, by maintaining a per fect system of public and private san itation, by keeping clean gutters and aromatic back yards, by making city ordinances to enforce cleanliness among the negro quarters on the levee and In the ghetto and on the foul river banks, she would not bo a stand ing Invitation to the "yellow jack," as she is. TAKE THE CHILlMtEX. The Lewis and Clark fair Is the op portunity of a lifetime for many chil dren of tlie Northwest states to see an exposition and every parent who attends the fair should take the chil dren along to give them the benefit of this opportunity. It will be an education worth more thnn months In school and It will per haps not come to your doors again for years. The government exhibit Is worth a week's visit alone, and It will be a misfortune If every child over 10 years of age In the Northwest does not see this one collection of govern ment appliances and educational feat ures. Children In Portland and In that vicinity will see It, but the children of the Interior counties and Isolated places In tho Northwest will bo left at home in too many Instances. It Is a misfortune and an Injustice to the children that they were not taken from the outside counties in greater numbers. WILLIAMSON'S MISTAKE. While no one has a right to ques tion the honesty of a Juror In his. es timate of the evidence in a case, yet vague circumstances show that the jury in the first Williamson trial was hung by a member of the Willamette valley land-stealing gang. Now that the second trial Is on, Congressman Williamson has made a bad mistake, if he is responsible for the disappearance of his nephew, who Is a witness In the case. If Williamson Is not guilty let him face the trial like a man. If he is the victim of political intrigue, as he asserts, let him deal fairly and above board. That is the only way in which he can secure and hold the confidence of the people. The absence of his own nephew whose testimony was damaging to Wllliajnson, convicts Williamson in the minds of observant people, whether the nephew returns to testi fy or not In the second trial. THE "HEATHEN" JAPANESE. Exerybody knows that In spite of their military ability, the Japanese, after all. are only poor benighted heathen with a falaclous ethical code known as "bushldo." An illustration of the workings of this poor, pagan standard of honor Is cited In the Ja pan Weekly Mail. After the capitulation of Port Ar thur seven Japanese soldiers rescued four Russian Red Cross nurses from drowning. Whereupon the Russian Red Cross chief addressed a letter of thanks to General Isell, commandant of the fortress, and Inclosed 100 ru bles for each of the rescuers. The money was immediately returned with thanks by the general with a let ter saying that though he had pressed the gift upon the men they had de clined It. "Their reason was," he continued, "that they had not been animated by any expectation of reward when they saved the lives, but had merely obeyed the instinct of not failing to succor others In mortal danger. It was sim ply their duty. Were they to accept any reward It would be repellant to their feelings. To those unacquainted with bushldo this may be difficult to uiitlcrstand. I would beg of you, sir, that being assured they appreciate your kind Intention, you would accede to their desire and leave their hearts In peace." This Incident will only go to con firm the prevalent Impression of the heathen traits of the Japanese. In eomnliance with a foolish and unen lightened code did not seven misguid ed Orientals deliberately refuse a chance to acquire, at the present rate of exchange, $51.50 apiece? Nothing could so demonstrate the ur.clvllzed nature of these people as their Indif ference to a good business opportun ity. What hope Is there for a nation under the thraldom of such a fantas tic code? Still, there Is a possibility that after the Japanese have bad the advantage of another generation's Intercourse with Western countries they may learn to discard their obsolete bushldo and give due weight to tho value of money. WONDERS OP t'OHX. Corn-fed pork furnishes our tables with millions of hams and sausages, besides bacon and lard. Corn pro duces the best of poultry and eggs, of which alone we, as a nation, consume more (when measured by dollars) than we do of wheat. Of cornstarch we use about $7,000,001) per year, to say nothing of the enormous consump tion of glue, combs and other products made from the horns, hoofs anil hair of those corn-fed animals. To all these we must add a product of corn oil (maximum, $13,000 dally), largely used In paints and the bl-products of corn oil, starch, glucose, whiskey and alcohol, dried and sold In cakes, for animal food, amounting to millions of dollars per year. Nor Is that all that corn accomplishes. Besides giving food and clothing In the form of nni mal and vegetable products, as Indi cated, it gives life and strength to millions of horses, mules and oxen that till our fields and haul our mul titude of farm products to the thous ands upon thousands of country mar kets, from Maine to California, ami from the Dakotas to Florida and Texas.

WONDERFUL CURE OF SORE HANDS By Cuticura After the Most Awful Suffering Ever Experienced EIGHT DOCTORS And Many Remedies Failed to do a Cent's Worth of Good " I was troubled with sore hands, so sore that when I would put them in water the pain would nearly set me crazy, the skin would peel off and the flesh would get hard and break. There would be blood flowing from at least fifty places on each hand. Words could never tell the suffering I endured for three years. I tried everything, but could get no relief. I tried at least eight different doctors, but none did me any good, as my hands were as bad when I got through doctoring as when I began. 1 also tried many remedies, but none of them ever did me one cent's worth of good. I was discour aged and heart-sore. I would feel so bad mornings, to think I had to go to work and stand the pain for ten hours, I often felt like givitigup my position. Before I started to work I would have to wrap every finger np sep arately, so as to try and keep them soft, and then wear gloves over the rags to keep the grease from getting on my work. At night I would have to wear gloves ; in fact, I had to wear gloves all the time. But thanks to Cuticura, that is all over now. CURED FOR 50c " After doctoring for three years, and spending much money, a 50c, box of Cuticura Ointment ended all my sufferings. It's been two years since 1 used any, and I don't know what sore hands are now and never lost a day's work while using Cuti cura Ointment." THOMAS A. CLANCY, 310 N.
