We wake in the morning with no knowl- edge of where our souls have been wandering while the senses slept; with fresh vigor and in- terest we enter upon the occu- pations of our daily work and fulfill our duties with an encr- ry that begins to rail as the evening shadows lengthen: as darkness deepens weariness comes down upon us and at last we are glad to lay aside our work and cares and to surren- der ourselves to the sleep that spirits our souls biick again in- to the unknown. Charles Grant Miller. ' UIU.I) A ItIG DITCH. lunda JI7.500 damages from three saloon keepers, who had ruined Hed lunda with drink, Is a startling nnd revolutionary stroke. Why have not the calloused courts awakened to this criminal practice long ago? Why have families been driven to poverty, crime, misery, In sanity and suicide by this infamous crime of the century, and tho crimin als allowed to escape all penally, ex cept to pay a license to society for the prlvlege of continuing their busl nses. When a railroad train chops off a man's leg, whether through tfcelr own or his negligence, the Injured man re ceives ample damages; when a far mer sends a man into a hazardous place and Injury results, the farmer is liable; If a contractor erects an Inse cure scaffolding and it falls and crip ples a workman, the workman can recover damages. But here Is this willful, premeditat ed, licensed crime of the century, not only rendering men incapable of work, but taking away their minds, their manhood, their self-respect, and leaving families at the mercy of char ity, without a protest from the courts of Justice, until now! "ROOMERS" Ol-' OREGON. While the East Oregonlan does not wish to assume the role of adviser to iht reclamation department, yet there are features of the East Umatilla pro ject which demand public discussion and which the people should be en lightened upon. The engineers may or may not have taken notice of these features. Engineers are only human and cannot foresee all the emergen cies which might ariBe in a project they undertake, and therefore they should welcome public discussion of the great work In which they repre sent the people. In this country of floods and fresh ets In the winter season and of scanty water supply ln summer, the depart ment must build a main canal leading into the reservoir, suffiicently large to Gil the reservoir during a few week of flood water ln the winter and spring. There will not be a surplus flow of water to direct Into the reservoir during the Irrigating season when the streams are low and all other ditch companies are using the limit of their apportionments. The flood water must fill the res ervoir daring the season of plenty, and for that reason, the canal leading into the reservoir should be larger than is needed to fill the reservoir by a constant inpour during the entire season Br O'lildlng a large canal, out of all proportion to the size of the res trvoir, the government will provide emergency facilities for filling the rsertir In the shortest possible time. Then should the flood season be but Brief, or the snowfall be light in the mountains and there should be but one short season of plenty, the reser voir would be filled and the settlers under the government project protect d from drought. If there was a strong, constant flow of water in the Umatilla river during the entire season, with cer tainty of a perpetual Inflow for the reservoir, the ordinary canal, built ln proportion to the size of the reser voir, would answer, and be safe; but m this country of emergencies, of floods and dry seasons, ample pro vision should be made to fill the res ervoir while the tide is high. In addition to providing safety and certainty as to the reservoir supply, the large canal Is necessary for other reasons. Bhould the area of the project be increased In future, which is highly probable, the larger canal will be needed to supply the Increase. Should winter irrigation of adjacent tracts be undertaken, which Is also highly practicable and remotely probable the large canal will be absolutely necessary. So, from an economical standpoint. It Is cheaper to build lg canal at first, than to enlarge It afterwards. The smaller canal will fill with slit quickly and the expense of clearing it will be greater than in the larger canal carrying more wa ter, and having a greater tendency to "scour" the bottom. The Portland Telegram will be mis understood when It calls Oregon edi tors, "boomers" of Oregon. Oregon Is not being "boomed" ln the sense In which this term Is most often used. The term is used ln all kindness, but It Is misleading. Oregon editors are advancing the legitimate Interests of the state, up building It, developing Its resources, advertising Its Just and true advan tages, and seeking to bring a sub stantial settlement to the stute. But there are no "boomers" among Oregon Journalists. The East Ore gonlan does not now recall a solitary newspaper In the state which Is ((booming" a locality, as this term is general understood. To "boom" a place means to build up fictitious notoriety, enlarge upon resources and advantages and "fleece" the unwary by unloading gold bricks upon them In the shape of real estate at inflated prices or mining property that has been salted, if not with gold dust, at least with hot air. Very little of this sort of "booming" Is now going on in the state. Every paper Is founded upon a permanent business basis, and every locality has a substantial foundation which Justi fies the wide advertising which the state is receiving from the Oregon press, The gathering of Oregon editors at Portland is not for the purpose of "booming" the various localities. It is for the purpose of forming wider mutual acquaintance and understand ing. With this end ln view and with this purpose accomplished, the Influ ence and power of Oregon editors and Oregon newspapers will be widened and strengthened. The state Is yet young. Many of Its richest sections are undeveloped. To bring Its advantages before the world properly, to give an intelligent pres entation of facts, to set before needy homeseekers the true and honest con ditions here, are parts of the mission of the press of the state but this Is not "booming" Oregon. It Is prevent ing the disastrous "boom" which has wrecked so manv localities In the past. THEIR HARVEST. The good wife's sons come home again With little Into their hands. But the lore of men that ha' dealt with men ' In the new and naked lands. But the faith of men that ha' brother- ed with men By more than the easy breath. And the eyes o' men that ha' read wl' men lit the open books of death. Rich are they, rich iu wonders seen. But poor In the goods o' men, So what they ha' got by the skin o" their teeth They sell for their teeth again. For whether they lose to the naked skin, Or win to their heart's desire, They tell it all to the weary wife That nods beside the fire. Home, they come home from all the ports. The living and the dead; ' The good wife's sons come home again For her blessing on their head! Rudyard Kipling, "The Sea- Wife." A TALE AND A MORAL. Two birds flew out of the south one day, And over the Joyous world Each flung a melody loud and sweet And gladly Its tired wings furled. And one bird high on the tallest tree A place for Its nesting found, While humbly the other built its home Low down on the common ground. A shrike fie wby and It saw the nest That swayed In the branches high. But the low built nest of the humble bird He saw not and passed It by. Which points the moral I wish to show: Though fortune has cast your lot Low down In the world with the hum ble ones, The Ills that strike at the mansloned oft Pass over the humble cot. Lowell O. Reese In San Francises Bulletin. (t)li-ONT HAVE HELPED IT. That the geographical area of the United States is not fully compre hended by the average foreigner. Is illustrated by an anecdote told by Jefferson De Angelis, the comedian, An Englishman, accompanied by his valet, had been traveling due west from New York for four days. At the end of the fourth day, master and servant seated themselves In the smo ker of the train, whence the man looked steadily out of the car window. At last his companion grew curious. "John." he said, ''ot what are you thinking?" "I was Just thinking, sir, about the discovery of Hamerlca," replied the vnlf-t.

WHEAT YIELD DECREASING. Twenty years ago the average yield of wheat for California and in tne Ran Jnaouin valley was 40 bushels to the acre on winter-sown land, while now a yield of 20 bushels on summer fallowed land, Is considered an exceptionally good crop, nnd sta tistics only Indicate an average of 13 bushels per acre for the state of Call fornlu. Not only has the yield of wheat In the central valleys of Call fornla fallen off fully one-half ln the last 20 years, but millers of the state complain of a marked deterioration in the quality of the wheat grown Thut Is, the gluten content Is becom ing less every year, and the wheat Is becoming more starchy. Statistics as published by the Merchants' Ex change of San Francisco, show that the total wheat crop of California has steadily fallen from 26,174,940 centals in 1888-89, to (,587,131 cen tals In 1903-4.
