THE RIGHT WILL PREVAIL.
The earmarks of a former populist
alitor of Pendleton, now an attorney
ami abstracter, irrigation promoter
ad organizer for a fraternal order.
ar too plainly seen In the Tribune's
edJtorlals now to admit of any denial
ti the fact that he has burst Into the
Journalistic field again, after, (as he
said Saturday morning in his signed
communication) taking a solemn oath
tr remain "out."
But will even his versatility and
rrey matter save the shattered wreck
ft-om utter destruction on tho reefs
rf unsound teaching and advocacy of
tadecency and disorder, and against
the best Interests of the community?
There are certainly more decent,
iaome-lovlng people In this community
Jfiian there are of the other kind, and
'2sre right will prevail In the end.
Respectable business men will be
hocked to think they were whipped
Into line temporarily by a handful of
aaUeon keepers and gamblers, ogaln.it
Interests of law and order and
rrtc cleanliness. The real fight for
better morals will be made at the polls
at the coming city election.
THE TEMPTRESS, SEDITION.
In a recent number of Punch Is a
cartoon of a Russian soldier guarding
rjt gates to the palace. Close beside
JUm Is a shadowy wraith whispering
'o his ear, and he Is on the point of
banding the shadow his musket. His
look shows the agitation and uncer
tainty that Is stirring him and he Is
standing on one foot undecided
whether to follow the wraith or stand
at his post.
The spectre that Is whispering to
the guard Is name "Sedition," and It
a true spectacle of the Russian
army and Its surroundings today.
The very guards at the palace gates
r? no longer free from the evil
-n-hispe rings of the Goddess of Sedi
tion and no one knows how close to
the throne lurks the demon of re
wnK'; and murder.
The peace negotiations with Japan
are an Infinitesimal Bpeck on the
horizon compared to the spectre of
Revolt and Sedition at the very gates
at the palace at home.
LEWISTON A NERVE CENTER.
Lewiston, the oldest town In the
mountain region of the Inland Em
pire, Is the newest. She Is Just now
th nerve center of the greatest rail
way and Industrial activity Been any
where In the west,
At the gateway of the Snake river
mnd at the only available mountain
pass between Montana and the coast,
with an area of rich, undeveloped
country all about her, with mines,
timber, soil, stock and expanding
Irlbutwy country all about her, she
promises to give a display of pano
ramic development in the next few
years never witnessed anywhere on
ttila coast before.
Next to Pendleton, traveling men
aay Lewiston Is the best city In the
Inland Empire. She cannot hope to
rival Pendleton aa a permanent, un
fitting, steady, trowing agricultural.
Uvcstock and manufacturing center,
but sho has other resources on the
sldo that are almost startling In their
very Immensity.
Pendleton, Walla Walla and Lewis
ton comprise a trio of commercial
centers that cannot be found grouped
so favorably anywhere elso west of
the Rocky mountains.
A PLEDGE OF GOOD FAITH.
When Guslnvua Adolphus camo to
the throne of Sweden, at the ago of
17, he found the Swedes divided Into
warring clans and factions, which
made it impossible for him to organ
ize a Swedish army that would make
an effectual fight against Invaders
from the outside, so the young king
after seeing clan after dun turn
against him und go back to revolt,
decided to exact a pledge of good be
havior from the Insurrectionists.
As f;ist as he conquered the revolt
ing clans with his loyal troops, he cut
off the right hand of every able
bodied man, first, he said, as a pledge
of their good Intentions, and second,
should they revolt ngaln, the would
be minus the trigger finger.
He said he would rather have a
race of one-handed farmers, than a
race of two-handed traitors, and so
his crude tactics ended Insurrection In
Sweden.
After Francis J. Honey convicts all
tho land thieves In Oregon, how will
the government know they will be
good after Heney's back Is turned?
The old lure of lund hunger Is so
strong that some pledge of future
good behuvior should be exacted
from Oregon by the government. As
soon as the trials end the ransacking
of the public domain will go merrily
on unless some permanent check Is
placed upon it.
The government should repeal the
timber and stone act, the desert land
act and the commutation clause of
the homestead law, In order to make
the land left to the people secure
from the Invading land sharks.
Precious little of the puollc domain
is left to the people and it should be
closely safeguarded. Timber will be
stripped from the western ranges
within a few years, and then, like
New England, the west will throw up
her hands In consternation at the
wreck of the commercial age and the
failure of civilization to provide for
the future.
Lot the government cut off the
right hand of land thievery as a
pledge of future good behavior.
Othcrwlso the thieves will return to
their merry old marauding as soon as
the prosecutor packs his trunk to
leave.
THE MOUNTAIN RESORTS.
After all the copy for the Umatilla
county statistical circular had been
written and it was ready for the
printers. President Borlo of the Com
mercial association, said: "Put in
something about the hot springs and
summer resorts In Umatilla county."
Thus the summer resorts became a
port of the statistical history of the
county, and the patronage they are
receivng this year places them on a
basis with other great resources laud
ed to the skies by Umatilla county.
With a few thousand dollars ex
pended In erecting new and more
convenient buildings, with cottages
for rent and the swimming pools
equipped with all the conveniences of
the modern natatorlum. Umatilla
county resorts will be by far the most
Inviting spots In the Northwest. Na
ture has done more than her share
toward preparing them for man's
comfort.
ALFALFA VS. CLOVER.
Alfalfa is ready for cutting a full
month before red clover. . There Is a
strong advantage In dairy farming,
since green crops are needed at the
earliest possible moment In the spring.
After cutting, alfalfa springs Into
growth more promptly than clover
and a second crop Is produced within
six or eight weeks. Clover lasts two
years and alfalfa 10 to 30 years. In
New Jersey the average yield of green
forage an acre was 36,640 pounds for
alfalfa and 14,000 pounds for red
clover. The weights of dry hay were
8258 pounds and 4088 pounds, and of
protelne 2214 pounds and 016 pounds
an acre, respectively. In the same
state alfalfa was found to contain
1809 pounds of dry matter and 205
pounds of protelne a ton, as compared
with 1694 pounds and 246 pounds for
clover. In other words, alfalfa not
only yields two and one-half times as
much as red clover, but Its feeding
value Is much greater pound for
pound. Country Life In America.
THREAD 10OO MILES LONG.
"Sea Island cotton Is the best kind,"
said a southerner. "It la finer and
silkier than any other cotton In the
world. A pound of It can be spun
Into 4.770 mile of thread.
"For an experiment once In the
English town of Manchester, a skilled
spinner ipun a pound of Sea Island
cotton Into a single thread 1000 mile
long. Then for another experiment,
he took another pound of cotton and
spun It Into as many banks aa he
could get He got 10,000 hanks In all,
and the yarn In each of them measur
ed 840 yards. Thus out of a pound of
cotton 4,770 miles of yarn were pro
duced. Thla yarn, though, was' too
fine to be of any practical utility.
"These two experiments made a su
perb advertisement for the cotton of
the south." Philadelphia Bulletin.
THE BEAUTIFUL KINGDOM.
There are faces alight with the glory
of love
In the "Kingdom of Never-grow-old,"
There are hearts that are light as the
clear skies above
In that kingdom of beauties untold.
And happy is he who can dwell In
that land
Where children are ruling with scep
ters In hand,
For youth is the monarch of one
happy band.
In the "Kingdom of Never-grow-old."
No sorrows lurk deep In grim thickets
of gloom
In the "Kingdom of Never-giow-old."
Hut flowers of beauty are ever In
bloom
And the pathways are shining as
gold.
The lauditer of little ones borne on
the air i
Is surcease of sorrow and cure for
all care,
For happiness reigns and hits banish
ed despair
In the "Kingdom of Never-grow-old."
The little hands offer a warm welcome
to all
In the "Kingdom of Never-grow-old."
The sweet little voices In harmony
call,
And their little arms wait to enfold.
And Father Time pauses to tuste of
the Joys,
To Join In the games full of romping
and noise
That are played all the hours by sweet
girls and boys
In the "Kingdom of Never-grow-old."
Come, walk with me now through the
cool shadows deep
In the "Kingdom of Never-grow-old."
And backward the years of our trou
bles wilt creep
While stories of youth are retold.
All burdens grow light and all cares
we dismiss;
The gates are unlocked by a sweet
baby kiss,
And Love sits enthroned In the City
of Bliss
In the "Kingdom of Never-grow-old."
Will M. Maupln, In the Commoner.
COUNTERFEIT RELICS.
An article In a recent number of the
Birmingham (England) Mall states
that a factory In that city Is turning
out weekly about 1200 flint-lock mus
kets, and that a large number of this
antiquated firearm are also made al
Liege, Belgium. These guns are sent
to Central and East Africa for use by
the natives, to whom the possession
of modern firearms Is denied by
statute. Directing attention to this In
dustry, Consul Halstead says:
It Is known In the trade that many
of these newly made weapons fall
Into the hands of travelers who regard
them In the light of a "find," and a
story Is told of a Birmingham manu
facturer having received a letter from
a dealer and several customers, when
the manufacturer wrote that he could
not supply old muskets, but was pre
pared to make him any number of
new ones required. These were, of
course, given the appearance of age.
The demand for old weapons is so
great, especially In the American sea
son, that the genuine articles would
go but a little way to satisfy It.
Tho Smart Set.
The "smart set" Is a vulgarism that
has obtained definite meaning, which
Is also more vulgar than enviable or
uplifting. Smart people are rich.
They are very modern and worldly,
the tendency among them is to exalt
social pleasures above the virtues, and
they are supremely self-centered. The
fine, sweet, honest and modest side
of llfo Is with them more a matter of
contempt than veneration. Tho grati
fying of various kinds of pride Is made
the business of life. To make existence
merry, full of glitter and show, to
worship self and tho golden calf
this Is the law and gospel of the
"smart set" at Its extreme. It Is per
missible In their code of ethics, as the
people have come to know It, to do all
manner of mean things, If you don't
get found out. This last command
ment takes precedence of all the ten
old-fashioned ones, and In It lies the
penally most dreaded. Springfield
Republican.
Women as Well as Men Are Made
miserable by Kidney and
Bladder Trouble.
Kidney trouble preys upon the mind,
tiscouragesandlesseusamhition; beauty,
vigor ami cheerful
ness soon disappear
when the kidneys are
out of order or dis
eased. Kidney trouble has
become so prevalent
that it is not uncom
mon for a child to be
born afflicted with
weak kidnevs. If tlie
child urinates toooften, if the urine scalds
the flesh, or if, when the child reaches an
age when it should be able to control the
passage, it is yet afflicted with bed-wetting,
depend upon it, the cause of the diffi
culty is kidney trouble, and the first
step should be towards the treatment of
these' important organs. This unpleasant
trouble is due to a diseased condition of
the kidneys and bladder and not to a
habit as most people suppose.
Women as well as men are made miser
able with kidney and bladder trouble,
and both need the same great remedy.

ANOTHER WONDERFUL
CURE BY CUTICURA
Writing under date of Sept. 7, 1904,
Mrs. Mattic Shaffer, of Cumberland,
Miss., says: "Some time ago I or
dered aud received your wonderful
Cuticura Remedies, which I used on
my little alllictcd babe with wonder
ful results. I had tried many other
remedies without any benclit what
ever, aud Cuticura came to the rescue
when my doctors and all other rem
edies had failed. One doctor pro
nounced it scrofula, the other eczema.
The little one was one solid sore, with
scales and scabs from head to foot,
when I started using Cuticura Soap
and Ointment. The result was won
derful, and now my baby's face and
body are 'smooth and clear."
(Signed) Sirs. Mattie Shaffer.
THE DUTY OF MOTHERS
At the First Sign of Disfiguring
Humors Is to Use Cuticura.
Every child born into the world
pith an inherited tendency to tortur
ing, disfiguring humors of the Skin
and Sculp, becomes an object of the
most tender solicitude, not only be
cause of its suffering, but because of
the dreadful fear that the disfiguration
is to be lifelong aud mar its future
happiness and prosperity. Hence it
becomes the duty of mothers of such
afflicted children to acquaint them
selves with the best, the purest, and
most effective treatment available,
viz.: the Cuticura Treatment, consist
ing of warm baths with Cuticura Soap,
and gentle anointings with Cuticura
Ointment, the great Skin Cure. Cures
made in childhood are speedy, per
manent, and economical.
