Spalding among the Cuyuse and Xez Perce tribes, are seen every day in the city of Pendleton and Uma tilla county. The members of the church amonj the Indians today are on a higher piano, a higher moral level than those not members. The drunken Indians are not members of churches. The most progressive and enlightened members of the tribe are members of tie church and its influence gives them a place In the councils of the tribe which the loss intelligent mem bers do not enjoy. If the work of the missionaries did nothing more than to prevent drunk enness among the Indians It would be worth all the sacrifice. But that work done 60 years ago is doing more than this. It is not only giving the Indians of these tribes a higher moral level than their breth ren, but it is constantly working for mental and physical advancement. No other western tribe boasts as many educated, self-supporting mem bers as the Xez Perce. The members of this tribe have Intermarried with the Umatilas and have lent their up lifting influence to the members of the Umatilla tribe until It. like "its . was attempted by the city council, the cousln thc Noz Perct. trlbe ,8 makng East Oregonian' was willing to go a heroc Rtruggk. agamst savagery. aneau witn me improvement aim saiu.

Dickson was the ruling spirit at the time! began a movement to gravel Webb street, the west end of which street had . been partially graveled at great expense to small property owners a couple of years before,- but which had not been put in decent condition by the city for reasons unknown. At the time this last improvement owners who had been taxed heavily ! the way of good examples and good Just two years before, protested J advlce Just a mtlc clean ani, whie against this additional tax and re-some direction from the intelligent monstrated to the council, so the ' whe men wno are tllrown constantly East Oregonian opposed the Proposed; lndlan. wlll Kreatiy ad ' vance the Umatillas. Improvement of West Webb street because it was one of the poorest streets In the city and least able to pay an additional tax after having recently paid one tax for partial Improvement. t An additional reason for the East: Oregonian's opposition to the im provement at that time, was that it i believed then, as it believes now, that J a portion of the council, led by J. R. j Dickson, proposed the Improvement j of Webb street, which It knew was not able to pay the expense. In order that the people might remonstrate and the council could then say that It was no use to go ahead with street Improvement since the people object ed to It. It seemed at that time to be a ruse on part of Dickson and others Next week 200 Xez Perces will cross the snow-covered mountains on horseback, from Lewiston to the Tu tuilla. to attend a revival meeting on the Umatilla reservation. Among this company will be nine native mln lsters who will preach In the Xez Perce and English tongues to the gathered tribesmen. This encouraging Incident compen sates for the sacrifices made by the pioneer missionaries. THE REST PERIOD YET. The foundation for the best period In Umatilla county is Just now being laid. This period will come when the arid to discredit street Improvement In sections are reclaimed and brought order to avoid the expense on their under cultivation. There Is some own high priced property. thing elevating, something Inspiring In The same kind of a ruse was pre- j the reclamation of the desert.

Mr. Dickson's present opposition to public Improvement Is not different from his policy In the past. , THE STRIKE IS COMING. The plutocratic barons of the east are clamoring for the admission of Chinese coolie labor, and who are prating about Justice and national honor In our dealings with China, on But there Is a genuine exhilaration In the Invasion and conquering of the wilderness. There is genuine lnsplra tion in the work of rescuing absolute ly waste land from its uselessness. So when the desert Is verdant and the waste places of Umatilla county are productive and self-supporting the real, genuine period of utility will have been ushered In. THE AXGELUS.

I hear you call, and see the sun de scending On rock and wave and sand. As down the coast the Mission voices blending Girdle the heuthen land. Within the circle of your Incantation Xor blight nor mildew falls; Xor fierce unrest, nor lust, nor Ion- ambition Passes those airy walls. Borne on the swell of your long waves receding, I touch the farthest Past see the dying glow of Spanish glory, The sunset dream and last. Before me rise the dome-shaped mis sion towers. The white Presidio; The swart commander in his leathern jerkin. The priest In stole of snow. Once more I see Portala's cross up lifting Above the setting sun; And past the headland, northward, slowly drifting. The freighted galleon. O solemn bells! whose consecrated masses r.p-al! the faith of old; O tinkling bolls! that lulled with twi light music The spiritual fold.

Which you quicken to remembrance of a former life we knew. Were you stream when I was wil low? Was I shell when you were billow? For your voice has ever echoed through the hushes of my heart; And it seems, as I behold you. That the very air foretold you, By the fragrance which, In welcome, all the budding boughs Import.

While history, therefore, enriches the mind and helps to de termine the career of young people, a fair knowledge of the subject Is absolutely essential to American citi zenship with Its accumulating respon sibilities. Consequently. I would deplore as a calamity any effort to crowd out from our colleges this vastly Import ant subject with substitutions that are magnified on account of the com mercialism they offer. Let us have more history and as a result better citizenship to tttiengthen American men and women and forti fy them in the, faith they hold In our Institutions at a time when the on coming tide is bringing from every shoi-e an Increasing multitude of for eigners, many of whom are stepped and dyed In the venom of dangerous anarchism because they have never known how much history was neces sary to make the American govern ment possible.
