h! my hfiirt grows as weak as
a woman's,
And the fountains of feeling
will flow.
When t think of the paths steep
and stony.
Where the feet of the rlear
ones must go;
Of the mountains of sin hanging
o'er them,
Of the tempest of fnte blow-
ing wild:
Oh! there's nothing on earth
half so holy
' As the innocent heart of a

THE RISH TO THE FRONT.
Iet one railroad company drive a
stake in new territory and every other
company within reach rushes to the
from and begins driving stakes on
suspicion.
As long as a territory Is unoccupied
it is left to fight out Its transportation
problems the best It can. No railroad
worries about It until some other
railroad casts an eye upon it when,
presto! it at once becomes the coveted
prize of a rough and tumble scrap
among all the lines within hailing dis
tance. When a party of surveyors, sup
posedly W. & C. R. or Northern Pa
cific employes, was seen In the coun- j
try west of Stage Oulch In this county
a few days ago. the O. It. & N. ut once
concluded that an alien and an Inter
loper was about to Invade the Hepp
ner coal fields from the vicinity of
Wallula. '
Let a hint be dropped that the
Northern Pacific or some other com
pany is surveying In that direction,
and quick as a flash, all is activity In
the O. R. & X. camp.
Really the railroad situation iiThis
state would be ludicrous were it not
o serious. The selfishness and slug
gishness of the companies in building
needed lines is something fierce.
The Elgin branch paid from tl; lay
It was opened to traffic. Condon re
turned a profit with the very flist
train that wan run Into that city, and
every branch line built by the O. ft.
N. has been a paying Investment
and yet dozens of localities Just as
prosperous and Just as resourceful as
the Heppner. Condon and Elgin d; i
trlcts are denied their Just d-.-serU in
the matter of railroad facilities
It Is a safe guess that the Heopner
branch will not be extended to an
portion of Umatilla county. It Is a
safe guess that Umatilla county will
remain for years. Just as she is now In
the matter of railroad f-tcilitics. The
people have become accustomed to
these periodical bluffs, tn-.-? spasms
of activity which come oocnionally to
b eak the mc ny.
UEART STORIES OF THE DAY.
Formerly the heart stories in the
r;wspaper were romances. They are
now more than likely to point to mar
vels. There were three in yesterday's
columns.
One told of a surgeon who held in
his hand for nearly an hour outside
the body the heart of a wounded pa
tient. The second announced the
death from consumption of a young
man who carried a bullet In his heart
seven years. The third story was that
of a man In Chlcnpcc who could play
with his heart, changing It from one
aide to the other without trouble.
Of these stories the first and second
go to swell the exceedingly modern lit
rature of heart surgery. In these
lays we have heart sewed up and re
adjusted, hearts treated by massage,
hearts Into which medicines are In
jected. It Is all wonderful, yet a little
thought makes It seem natural. The
heart Is the first organ to get to work
In a human body and the last to quit.
It works unceasingly, under all condi
tions and at all hours. It suffers dis
turbance through evry shock, physi
cal or emotional.
Wtlh such endurance us it display
there must go proportionate strength.
Then why be astonished at Its power
to live on under the knife and the
needle?
The surgeon Is bold, but he Is care-
ful. Tlit heart's groat peril comes not
through 111 n but through the reckless
hurriers. v. orrlers anil fume-pursuers
who overstrain ami overwork 11 faith
ful servant of life.
The members of the city council
who are opposed to public Improve
ments ami better morals are ashamed
to sign their names to an article con
demning the Rust Oregonlan for Its
stand fur hth public improvements
and better murals, but they induce a
man with nothing at stake In either
cause to attempt (o ridicule the abso
lute fai ls stated by this paper. The
Kast 1 Hegonlan owns its own proper
ty, pays lis ov n taxes, conducts Its
ow n business and has opinions on both
public lnipr ements ami public mor
als which it is not ashamed to express
at any time and under any circutn
satnecs. H will discuss these quoB
ilniis at any time with taxpayers, but
it declines to lie led Into u discussion
with a man having nothing at stake.
The facts stated by the Kast Oregonlan
are absolutely true, as far as the II
lustruilnns cited, go. It did not state
the cost of paving M;iin street entire,
but gave illustrations which cannot be
denied. The truth seems to have
struck a tender spot.
Heeause the business men asked for
the Sunday clusiug of saloons in North
Yakima, after .111 drunken Indians had
terrorized the town one Sunday, the
saloon men did Just what they did in 1
Pendleton forced the city council to
close the town so tight that you had to
die to hire a livery team. Seven busi
ness men were arrested for selling
meat, melons and cigars, and now Un
people are aroused and declare they
will vote prohibition in North Yakima
at the first opportunity. The saloon
man is the same the world over. If
he can't rule he will attempt to ruin
No day has been set aside yet by the
Iewis and Clark fair management In
honor of printer's Ink. The manage-J
ment must certainly know the import-I
ance of this subject when it feels of
its hulging pocketbook.

FACTS A ROUT COLOMBIA.
"I may positively affirm that the
unsetttld period of revolutions (In
Colombia) Is past and forever gone,"
writes Enrique Perez In "Im Mlsceln
nea." "Colombia has sources of wealth al
most Inexhaustible. The output of her
gold mines can compete to ndvantuge
with that of the richest gold mines in
the world. Five hundred thousand
square miles of the most fertile terri
tory are there waiting for railways to
cross them In every direction.
"(Nipper and Iron are plentiful, oil
gushes out from the lund like streams
of water; coal, bituminous and an
thracite, to be found In great quanti
ties; India rubber, vanilla, a large and
unknown variety of fibre plants, and.
In fine, all the products of all cli
mates and zones, afford many arid en
vluble chances to foreign capital and
labor.
"People going to Colombia can se
lect the cllmute best suited to their
taste, from the warmest tropical heat
to the severest cold in the regions of
perpetual snow, and there Is some
thing to do everywhere, something to
work upon wherever man chooses to
KO."
ROY WON HIS CASE.
The Judge of one of the Missouri
county courts went to his home the
other afternoon, says the Kansas City
Journal, and. becoming acquainted
with some flagrant act of his 7-year-old
son, summoned the lad before
him. "Now, sir. lay off your coat,"
he said sternly. "I am going to give
you a whipping that you will remem
ber as long aa you live." "If It please
your Honor," said the boy, "we desire
to ask a stay of the proceedings In
this case until we can prepare and
file a change of venue to mother's
court. Our application will be based
on the belief that this court has form
ed an opinion regarding the guilt of
the defendant, which cannot be shoken
by evidence, and is, therefore, not
competent to try the case." Stay was
granted and the boy allowed 25 cents
attorney fee.
The new rates to Manila, Hong
Kong and Shanghai from Seattle are:
First-class, 22B; second, $168.76:
third, 1126; Asiatic steerage, $51.

A NEURAL I.AXC.I ACE.
The following brief review of a neu

Kurope, and known as Esperanto, has
been published in recent numbers of
several magazines:
Esperanto was devised by Ir. Zam
enhof, of Dellstock. Uussia.
The language has been in existence
since 1KST.
Phonetic spelling is a feature.
It has 20UI) root words.
All the words common to the prin
t ipai languages have been absorbed
with Utile, If tiny, alterations.
All of these words, by the use of
pi c fixes and suffixes, are Intended to
be sufficient to express every shade
of thought or action.
The Human alphabet is used.
The pronunciation is phonetic
throughout one letter, one sound.
The vowels are confined to five. All
consonnantal sounds are eliminated.
All singular nouns end in "o." all
adjectives In "a." ull derived adverbs
in "e," ami all plurals In "J."
All verbs are regular. There Is
only one conjugation.
In pronunciation all emphasis
comes 011 the last syllable but onei
Many thousands of persons through
out Europe can speak and write It
fluently. There are many magazines
devoted to It.
It is propagated by associations or
ganized to study and extend Its use.
The Esperanto grammar has been
translated into more than lan
guages and dialects.
It already has a considerable liter
ature of its own.
A big convention of persons Inter
ested In Ksperanto has Just been held
at lioulogne. France.
