The Osage In dians are. estimating the amount of capital per head, the wealthiest peo ple In the world. The five principal tribes of the ter ritory, the Chlekasaws, Choctaw. Seminole. Cherokees, and Creeks, are all so well off In lands and money as might make the average white man envious. They nre also thoroughly equipped by education. In the mat ter of physique strength, endurance and quickness, the Carlisle football team, and also the basket-ball players have taught the white race that the Indians, both men ana women, are a match for them. These tribes have been successfully self-governing for so long that polltl- 1 cal art is familiar to them. They , have every DrosDect of merging with i the general citizenship of the country to the advantage of themselves. Out of this newly granted citizen ship it may come to be that the In dians will forever own a share In this continent. It is a mistake to speak of the Indians as a vanishing race: th.-y are increasing In numbers. If as individuals they prove ns capable In the managing of their estates as they have been In tribal union, they will be financially among the most prosperous In the country. The Chinese minister at Washing ton tells tills dog story: There wns a hlneso who had three dogs. When he came home one evening he found them asleep on his couch of teak- ooj and marble. He whipped them nd drove them forth. The next lght when he came the dog were lyinsexm the floor. But he placed his hand on the couch and found It inn from tholr bodies. Therefore he gave them another whipping. The bird night, returning earlier than sual, he found the dogs sitting before the couch blowing on it to cool It. Kubellk. the noted violinist, was once playing by request before the In mate of an Insane asylum, tho su pcrlntendent of which believed that music was a fine medicine for unbal anced minds. He played a brilliant Slav composition, thinking that was surely of the cheerful character want ed. As he finished, a very pretty oung woman arose and beckoned to him. He thought, artist like, that she wanted an encore, and so said to the doctor: "Ask her what she de- Ires?" He rose to his feet and was about to question her, when she ex claimed: "To think of the likes of me being in here and he at large In the world! This story was told In the senate cloak room apropos of the speech ot Senator Patterson, supposed to be a democrat, In which he eulogized all of President Roosevelt's policies: A ocal census enumerator visited the senator's home in Denver, and was received by the negro butler. After the usual questlones, he asked: What Is the senator's politics?" "Fo" de Lawd's sake, mister, I dunno," nswered the darkey; "de senator aint done been home since breakfast time." The Argonaut. THE PEOPLE OH THE KINGS? The San Francisco Argonaut, one of the sensible and conservative po litical reviews of the Pacific coast. views with alarm the prospect of the repeal of the Chinese exclusion act by eastern Influences in congress. While the Argonaut looks at the Chinese question through the eyes of a Callfornlan, yet there is such a striking truthfulness in its conclusions that all must agree, partially, with its statements. The danger of a labor war Is per haps not immediate. If left to solve the problem without the aggravating presence of foreigners. American clti lens would perhaps reach a peaceful solution, but with the country filled with Asiatics, who supplant American workingmen who must support large families from their labor, the ques tion becomes complicated and intensi fied and the Argonaut's statements strike home with peculiar directness. We believe that such is the greed of the commercial classes In the east that they will force our national leg islators to nullify, if not to repeal. the acts protecting us from an Asiatic Invasion, says the Argonaut, . We greatly fear and almost believe that it is Impossible to check this con spiracy against our American nation ality and our Anglo-Saxon civlllza tlon. If this conspiracy Is successful, and the flood of Asiatic immigration again begins, we believe it will result eventually In an uprising of the w hite laboring men. The Importation of African slaves led to our Civil war of 1861-65 the most bloody and awful conflict of modern times. The importation of Asiatic coolies if resumed, will lead to an Industrial war, a war or classes, eventually 10 a civil war. Such a war or wars will mean the downfall of the republic. be I Since the announcement that Judge i Stephen A. Lowell of this city, would a candidate for the office of lates senator at the coming primary election, the Portland rings have begun to boost the ring candi dates Cake and Bourne for this of fice. ' In this contest for the senatorshlp, the people are opposed to the old political ring of Portland, which has dominated the state since It was first admitted to the union. PORTLAND W ILL ELECT ANYBODY TO BEAT THE COMMON PEOPLE AND EASTERN OREGON". Judge Lowell Is a man of the peo ple, without a fortune to spend in the campaign, but with a capability and honesty of purpose which towers above the ring candidates like Mt. Hood above Pilot Rock. He will make a campaign on his personal merit. He Is known over the state as a fearless, honest, capable, clean man. and the common people should re member this when voting for a can didate for the United States senate, Portland has dominated eastern Oregon long enough. To the wind with politics, let eastern Oregon join in the campaign for Judge Lowell and send a representative of the people to the senate once more. UNITE CITY AM) COUNTRY. NEW ERA FOR INDIAN'S.

It Is a historical event of considera ble importance, this final merging of the most picturesque of all savage races into complete American citlzen- The East Oregonlan today prints a news Item concerning a meeting o farmers to be held In this city on Sat urday, March 17, for the purpose organizing a mutual telephone system for the country districts. This meeting should be well at tended. There are not enough horn conveniences In the country districts of the west. The comforts and luxu ries have been too long confined to the cities.'

St Anthony's Hospital O ABOUT THE IllilliO. For more than three centuries the latient little burro has been an in habitant of the new world. He is of Egyptian descent, and it may be thai he helped to build the pyramids: but It Is to Spain that we are Indebted for his coming. Soon after Cortez eon- uered the Aztc land, we hear of the burro In America. He Is found chlef- In Mexico and the southwestern tates, especially in the mining dls- ricts, where he may be seen carrying great loads of ore. He Is opposed to the use of machinery. Miners call bunch of laden burros a pack train. He Is a very' sure-footed little, animal, nd prospectors use him when they go forth Into the mountains to ex plore. Mexicans find him very use ful In carrying. He is so gentle that children may ride upon his back in threes and fours. He appears to have no resent ment, and will take a kick or a cuff with the pjatlence of Job. There is no doubt but that he Is terribly imposed upon, and people call him a degener ate; yet no member of the animal kingdom works harder than he, and Is generally conceded that he has aided largely In the development and building of mines and railroads.

Aye, wealth they missed they failed they go; The streams are silent where they sped; Their songs die down, their fires burn low. Their lodges stand untenanted. But still In memory's ghostly glass Weird picture rise through mist and storm The spicy camp, the dark spruce pass. The roaring fire and cabin warm. Still when the night has reached its tide. Beyond the city's glare and din Again that far white trail I glide In squirrel coat and moccasin. I feel the lur of lands remote, On distant wing my salrlts lift; O'er glassy lakes I fare and float. Through forests vast and dim drift. Far from the city's cant and care The petty park, the shaven lawn From peaks that half the world up bear I meet the red on-rushlng dawn. Howard W. Hall In tho Overland, POSSESSION. The sun is mine, although he sails on high Unconscious that I watch him grate fully, For life and love he scatters at my feet, For all he sends to make my garden sweet. And you are mine, beloved, near, yet afar, From out my gray sky gleaming like a star Unconscious, too, like him, that at your feet Is one whose life your living makes complete. Ruth Sperry.
