.UNION iStvlUB E
It la a time for a searching of
hearts. It Is a time for repent-
ance and ne wresolves. We need
a revival of the sense of honor.
We want to know less of the
men who started life poor boys
and who amassed great fortune,
and we want to know more
about the men who, however
poor they may have started,
have lived unsullied lives and
died poor. In the words of
Burke, we need at this time an
awakening to the sensibility of
chastity in public men and pub- s
lie affairs. The men who hold
public office, who direct great
corporations, who solve great
problems must be ready to show
a clean balance sheet and pre-
pare to answer If called upon
the question, Where did he get
It? Charles E. Hughes.
IN WOMAN'S DEFENSE.
The Dalles Chronicle, In an effort
to discredit the Importance of equal
suffrage, quotes an Instance In a city
election In Toronto, Canada, In which
less than 200 women out of a total of
800 who were qualified to vote, cast
a ballot.
This Is used presumably to show
that they take little Interest In elec
tions and public questions, even when
favored with the prlivlege of voting.
But Is man such a public spirited
creature when It comes to voting In
elections In which the most Important
public Interests are at stake?
In Seattle last spring less than 300
voters saddled a debt of over $80,000
upon the city. This. Is an Instance in
which one of the most Important pub
lic questions was before the people.
Seattle boasts of a population of
nearly 100,000, and yet less than 300
men voted.
In the city election In Pendleton
two years ago. 312 votes were cast,
although there were over 1200 quali
fied voters In the city at that time.
In the recent school bond elections In
this city, and the more recent regular
school elections here, less than one
fourth of the qualified voters cast a
ballot.
Are men such public spirited creat
ures, after all? Is the fact that a full
vote of women is not brought out at
every Insignificant city election a
reason for denying the mothers and
wives the ballot If they desire It?
Where they vote the polls have been
purified. Rowdyism and Indecency
and drunkenness have been decreased
by their presence at the voting booth
and if for no other reasons, these
would be sufficient for giving them
the ballot In Oregon next June.
CENSURING TILE INNOCENT.
Recently what seems to the East
Oregonian to be unjust censure of
well meaning people, was made from
a Pacific coast pulpit
The minister making the criticism
rather harshly blamed a large num
ber of Christian people for not being
active church workers, zealous teach
.ers and tireless workers In the Inter
est of religion.
He admitted that these people led
exemplary lives; that they were al
ways ready to contribute to the aid of
the work; that they attended services
and In every way seemed to be con
scientious In their belief In Chris
tianity, but they failed to enthuse
any one, did not take the lead In the
various features of church work, and
were therefore utterly selfish.
The East Oregonian Is always with
the oppressed and It believes that a
large number of excellent people,
well meaning, conscientious and de
voted are wrongfully censured by this
man.
Religious zeal Is a gift . of nature
Just as the gift of poetry, painting,
sculpture, Invention or other high
characteristic of the mind.
If a person Is not born with this
gift, Innate, they cannot possibly at
tain It. The lack of it la not indif
ference on their part. They cannot
exercise that faculty If they do not
possess It. They cannot become active
teachers and sealous workers If they
are not endowed by nature with that
gift.
It would be as unjust to criticise a
saintly old mother because she cannot
paint a beautiful picture, or to con
demn a devoted father because he
cannot Invent or write or become an
orator.
It Is natural for some to be teach
ers, leaders. Instructors. It Is natural
for them to exercise the faculty which
enables them to become religious
workers. They cannot do otherwise
than directed by their nature. But
they should not harshly Judge those
who do not possess that faculty.
There must be an Individual
standard of mercy and judgment
People are differently constituted.
The surroundings and environment
which shape the characteristics and
bent of the human mind are not alike
in all cases. What Is developed In
one Is sadly neglected In another.
What Is strong In one Is weak In an
other and thus each man and woman
must be judged according to their
own Individual merit and natural en
dowments and not according to a
standard set up by some one who
makes a specialty and then seeks to
Judge all by his personal standard.
PACIFIC OCEAN EXPOSITION.
Ten million dollars Is the sum con
templated to provide for celebrating
the 400th anniversary of the discovery
of the Pacific ocean by Balboa, ac
cording to a bill Introduced by Con
gressman Kahn Into the house of rep
resentatives. The bill calls for an ap
propriation by the government of $5,
000,000 as soon as the secretary of
the treasury has been given proof
that the Pacific Ocean Exposition
company has raised 15.000,000 to In
augurate and carry forward the expo
sition, the sum to become available
only when the exposition company has
actually expended Its J5. 000,000. The
opening of the exposition Is set for
not later than the first of May, 1913.
The most spectacular thing that the
government Is asked to do on behalf
of the exposition Is to order a grand
naval review to be held In the bay of
San Francisco, and to Invite foreign
nations to send their ships of war to
take part In It. The usual help from
the executive departments, the Sml'h
sonian Institution, the National muse
um and the life-saving service are
asked. Buildings to cost 1250,000 are
to be an additional contribution by
the government It Is to be an Inter
national exhibition of arts. Industries,
manufactures and the products of the
forest, mine, soil and sea.
In the seven years' Interval between
now and the ppenlng the expected In
crease In Pacific commerce will be
fulrly launched as a result of the new
awakening of China and the progress
ive policy which her rulers are dili
gently trying to prepare their people
for. Judging by rapidity of the rate
of increase the United States Is ac
knowledged, even by foreign econo
mists, to be destined to lead Ihe
world In commerce.
That fact gives to San Francisco, as
the principal American port on the
Pacific, an Importance so great that
an exposition held there to commem
orate the ocean's discovery by civili
zation and to stimulate the exploita
tion of Its commercial advantages will
attract the world's attention, and
should be conducted on a scale that
will fitly do honor to the city and the
nation so eminently Interested In the
Pacific.
DEADLIER THAN RATTI.F-S.
In the mills and on the railroads of
Allegheny county, Pennsylvania,
which Includes Pittsburg, 17,700 per
sons were killed and Injured In 1905,
whose cases became matters of rec
ord. Many victims who went to
neither hospital nor morgue escaped
the count
This number Is barely less than the
total of the Union and Confederate
dead and wounded at Fredericksburg.
It Is almost four times the total cas
ualties at the first Bull Run and 2000
greater than the federal loss at the
second Bull Run. It exceeds by 4000
the French loss at Gravelotte.

their companies Into chances of death

HOPES.
"If I had a son who was determin
ed to play the races, I should hope
that he would lose his last nickel
and have to walk home after his first
attendance. If I had a daughter who
played the piano In the sitting room
while her old mother did the work In
the kitchen, I should hope that I
might find an oak shingle and be
given the grace to use It. If ever I
were to catch myself being as mean
and small as some men I know and
I may I hope that I should hope,
for the benefit of the world, that the
Angel Oubrlel would toot his horn
for me very soon. If my wife should
prove to be Irascible at times but I
don't admit It I should hope that I
would remember the sort of luck the
poor girl played In when she married
me." Qllmore, (Texas) Mirror.

HOW MIXES ARE CLASSIFIED
IN THE MARKET.
"The classification of Missouri's
great product, the mule, is the hardest
of all livestock, said John Grant of
the firm of Walcott, Beers & Grant
at the stockyards," to the , Kansas
City Star.
"To most people the animal Is sim
ply a mule, with a strong Inclination
to emphasize his presence with a kick.
To most buyers he Is good or bad.
large or small, smooth of rough, will
probably bring a certain price on the
market or will not be wanted at all,
while among dealers who supply the
different demands he Is classified ac
cording to weight, bone, size, color,
age. mouth, teeth, broken or un
broken, length and breadth, and also
In regard to the locality of the buyer.
"In the first place, green, un
broken mules are never wanted.
Once In a while we receive a few and
generally have to sell them at a sac
rifice. The principal classes of mules
known to the market are: Cotton
mules, lumber mules, railroad mules,
sugar mules, farm mules, levee mules,
city mules and miners. Miners are
classed as surface and pit mules.
"Cotton mules are the commonest
kind In regard to numbers. They
range from 13 to 18 hands, and from.
4 to 7 years old are the best ages.
Their build makes little difference so
long as they are smooth. In price
they range from 350 to S 165. Lumber
mules are the largest, heavy-boned,
rugged grades, 15.3 to 16.2 hands or
beter. They are used In the big lum
ber camps for logging and must have
the weight for good heavy pulling.
In price this class ranges up to 3250.
"Similar to the lumber mule Is the
railroader. Some lighter, but on the
good heavy order, and from 115 to
$20 cheaper. They are used In grad
ing, hauling and all the work that Is
known In the construction of rail
roads. . Sugar mules belong to the
fancy class. They must be smooth,
built rangy, small head and neck,
small bones. In height from 15 to 16
hands, and in price from 3165 to
3210. Farm mules vary In size, but
are formed from the rejected ones of
the foregoing classes. Their prices
range from $10 to $15 lower.
"The miners are the hardest class
to supply. They must be either dark
bay or black In color. White and sor
rel mules are never used. When the
mines have long shafts, In the Penn
sylvanla coal reglans especially, they
say a white mule resembles a ghost
and frightens the other mules be
yond control. The pitters must be
long In body, heavy-boned and have
good weight. They range from 12 to
16.2 hands and bring from $135 to
$200, while for any other trade they
would bring $50 less. Surface mules
are used on the long hauls on top of
ground. They are heavy, but taller,
and have not such large bones.
"Levee mules, as the word Implies,
are used near steamboats and dock
for the heavy work. They are gener
ally single workers and must be of
the rugged class. Their looks matter
little so long as they are sound and
fit for hard work. A city mule In
cludes the small, light grades, such as
you see on delivery and transfer wag

When a Sore or Ulcer is slow in healing it is the best evidence of a dis
eased condition of the blood and a disordered system. They show that the
bodily impurities, which should pass off through the natural channels of
nature, are being retained in the system from some cause. The blood ab
sorbing the waste matters becomes steeped in poison which finds an outlet
through the Sore or Ulcer, keeping it . .
inflamed, painful and festering. As pryou?'. 'mlltiS.

have reduced the number greatly.
"The government buys all classes
of mules, but that Is done according
to contract and prices hold a wide
range. They never buy a low-priced
animal and they are rigid In their ex
aminations." . NO LEISURE CLASS NEEDED.
The Boise Statesmun prints the fol
lowing striking editorial on Judge
Grosscup's address In Chicago, on the
"Leisure Class":
Judge Peter S. Grosscup of Chicago
nas coniriDuted much to the ex pan
slon of our' philosophy on lines de
signed to better the condition of the
race. In an address last week he
made the following striking state
ment: "God never ordained that
there should be a leisure class. It is
pull, pull, pull at the oars up stream
all the time. God Intended that man
should work."
Nothing could be more true than
that. Every one who candidly looks
Into the subject realizes that work Is
normal for man and that there Is no
place for a purely leisure class. Man
Is happier when at work than when
Idling his time away, and he Is far
better off.
There Is nothing In a life of Idleness
which can attract a man having the
least spirit. Those who, having the
means for living without work, are
still real men, strive to find some use
ful means of spending their time,
Many of the hardest workers we have
are people of wealth.
In a great multitude of Instances
they have Inherited means but have
gone to work because they have been
true to the Impulse of development
that Is given every one who Is endow
ed with the correct spirit.
But. notwithstanding that It Is so
plainly good for man to be at work, a
great majority of our people are con
stantly hoping that they can attain
such a condition that they can escape
from It.
Fortunately for most such persons,
they do not reach such a condition.
They go on working and thus continue
to contribute toward the sum of hu
man happiness. Good people many
of the best entertain this constant
desire to escape from work, but It Is
generally true that when such an one
does attain Independence he continues
to work In some useful manner.
