boulevards or driveways Mth small
expenditure and has a municipal wa
ter system which affords amply sup
ply for almost any emergency.
Suppose the price of city water was
Teduced about 25 per cent so small
home-owners could afford to use the
limit in irrigating lawns and shade
trees; then suppose a movement
should be started to plant trees as
thick as they could stand from St..
.Anthony's- hospital to the extreme
west end of Court, Alta and Webb
streets, on both sides of these streets.
When these trees should come to
maturity and should furnish shade for
the entire length of these three streets,
no city In the west could present more
attractive driveways, and no more de-i
lightful public improvement could be
made to supplement the paving on
he principal business mreets.
Suppose the city should undertake
to furnish the young trees free of
charge, on condition that home
owners should care for them and ir
rigate them. The expense would be
light and It would convince the people
that the city government exists for
the public good and not ror the few.
The people would respond to this
movement heartily, it is believed, and
a most beautiful effect would result.
Then, in addition to this, the levee
can be converted into a driveway and
thus public Interest in It would be

and business Interests in Pendleton
will do their part, this can be made
one of the most beautiful and at
tractive cities as well as one of the
best business points In the inland
empire.
MR. AltMOl It'S COMPLAINT.
J. Ogden Armour, the recognized
spokesman of the packers, Is Just now
.engaged In making a plaintive appeal
for a "square deal" for the packers.
"Where Is the American love of fair
play?" he asks.
Mr. Armour's sudden Interest In the
'square deal" and "fair play" would
be commendable were It not rendered
so ridiculous by the facts surrounding
1111
the case at Issue. The old saw to the
effect that It "makes a difference
whose ox Is gored" him a peculiar ap
plication to the beef trust exposures.
Mr. Armour and his associates never
paused to consider the matter of a
"square deal" and "fair play" when
they met every morning to decide
. ... .......
rebates from complaisant railroad
managers In order that they might
crush out competition.
They never gave those things a
thought when they put In syndicate
meat markets by the side of Inde
pendent markets and sold beef below
cost until tho small competitors were
bankrupt. When they were "doping"
their products and endangering the
health of the public In order to In
crease profits they did not care a rap
about a "square deal" or "fair play."
That was when they thought they had
everything their own way.
Now, when they are paying the pen
alty, their Interest In a "square deal"
and "fuir play" suddenly becomes
acute.
I "THE SIX-H1T COMPANIES."
i
! As soon as the list is available the
East Oregonlan will publish the list
Jiof the names of the "slx-blt," or dis-
honest Insurance companies which
jare offering to settle with San Fran-
i cisco property owners at 75 cents on
the dollar.
These companies should be barred
from doing business In . every state.
They are not safe nor honest and the
public should know who they are.
I They carry millions of dollars In in
surance risks, and demand that the
, public pay them the same premium
that is paid to other companies which
are classed as standard companies,
yet when losses occur these commer-
THE RECORD IS GOOD.
Every town In the farming com
munities of the northwest expects to
experience a lull in business between
the seeding and harvest season, when
most of the farmers have moved to
the country, worklngmen are all out
of town at work, and when all things
combine to make business light.
Not so with Pendleton this season.
To the contrary, business men de-
clare that the spring and early Bum-
mer business this season, up to today.
has been better than usual. The vol
ume of business transacted during the
month of -June was exceptionally
heavy and the trade since July i,
contrary to all expectations has been
extremely active.
Pendleton is founded upon a solid
rock of resources which is not to be
i shaken by temporary conditions. Her
wheat farmers and her stockmen are
certain sources of support.
All she needs to supplement her
farmers, stockmen and active business
interests is a manufacturing popula
tion which would draw a monthly
salary the year around and make
more school houses necessary.

THE VALVE OF ItEST.
The therapeutic value of rest in the
medical management of acute Inflam
matory and Infectious processes .Is
not fully appreciated. Its effect upon
the circulation Is significant. The
nverage daily output of energy by the
heart is 400,000 foot pounds; by sim
ple rest In bed It is possible to save
the heart a dally expenditure of 60,-
000 foot pounds of energy.
The faster the heart boats the less
time It has for rest that Is, the sum
total of the periods of rest or diastole
is much greater when the pulse, Is, say.
i0 per minute, than when It is 120
per minute; so that decreasing the
pulse rate saves the heart.
. Again, in the recumbent position
this orgun Is saved the labor of ele
vating that part of the blood which
goes to parts above Its own level.
Rest of the voluntary muscles is still
more important. An immense amount
of energy evolved in muscle move
ment Is conserved by rest In bed.
Muscle rest also secures rest for
the motor neurons. The larger part
of the nervous system is relieved of
Its work when the muscles are dor
mant. Decreasing the output of en
ergy relieves the digestive, assimila
tive, and ellmlnatlve organs of a cor
responding amount of work. CI.

MOVING AX OSTRICH.
When one of the big ostriches is
moved at the Cincinnati Zoo, it takes
a dozen men to do it, and each one
will tell you afterwards that he thinks
It is equal to a hard day's work. Not
that the ostrich is a particularly mean
or dangerous creature, but he Is a
stubborn one, and nlwnys wants to do
what the men do not want. This
strong will power from so small a head
Is substantiated by a strong body and
two awfully powerful logs. He can
kick like a mule, but his kicks are
toward the front, and he lands almost
oveiy time he tries.
An ostrich Is the biggest coward
you ever saw when in a strange plnce,
and If you give him a chance will
run himself tired, but this can not be
done when moving these birds at the
zoo'. A big sack Is thrown over the
head to blindfold him, and another
one around the body to hold him back.
f the bird takes a notion to run, no
men living could stop him without the
sack around his hody. He sticks his
long neck out straight and digging his
toes into the ground, pulls like n
team of horses ,and as he clears the
track with dangerous kicks from the
front, the almost helpless men do the
best they can from the renr. Mem

DEATH OF .T. MCONXEI.L.
Plonoc-r of 187!) nml T.oavp Several
Relative anil Many Friends.
.1. J. McConnell. the well known pio
neer resident, died Saturday afternoon
at 5 o'clock at the home of his son-in-law.
J. L. Vaughan. Death was the
result of rheumatism, with which the
old gentleman had been suffering for
many months.
J. J. McConnell had been a resident
of Pendleton for 22 years. He cross
ed the plains to Wallowa county in
1879 and moved here In 1S8.1. During
his residence here he became well
known among nil the old residents.
He leaves five children: James and
Robert, both of Pendleton; Mrs. J. L.
Vaughan. of this city; Mrs. C. E.
Fuqua, of Spokane, and Mrs. H. H.
Weaver. sIbo of Spoknne.
The funeral service was held at 10
o'clock this morning from the home
of Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Vaughan. The
services there and at the cemetery
were conducted by Rev. Robert War
ner, pastor of the Thompson Street M.
E. church. The following acted as
pail-bearers: George A. Hartrr.an, J.
K. Smith, A. D. Sloan, Lee Mooi house,
Doss Turner and George Feebler.
THE "SALARY GRAB.'
The Charlotte Observer Illustrates a
point with the following story of a
by-gone incident. The older public
will remember the congressional
back salary grab" of the late six
ties and early seventies the members
of one congress reaching back and
voting themselves additional salary
which they convinced themselves was
due from the preceding session.
Among those voting for this measure
was the late General James Madison
Leach, of North Carolina, then a rep
resentative in congress.
The next year he was a candidate
for re-election, and when he was
thundering away on the stump one
day a man in the audience Interrupt
ed him: "Butt what did you do with
your part of the back salary grab?"
I used It to pay a security debt for
your daddy, damn you that's what
I did with it."
FAST TYPESETTING.
The Salt Lake Herald takes a pard
onable pride In the fact that It has
In Its employ the fastest linotype op
erator In the world, In C. A. Nichols.
Mr. Nichols recently undertook to
establish a new world's record. It
was thought when he began that he
would be successful In his attempt.
He was. He passed the former high
record by more than 10.000 ems and
had a few minutes of his eight hours
left when he quit. It Is certain that
Mr. Nichols could have set a higher
mark had he gone the full time limit,
but he set the mark high enough.
The old record, 96,000 ems, as
against 106,000 for Mr. Nichols, stood
for 10 years. His record Is likely to
stand for a much longer period. There
were limes when his work was faster
than the capacity of the machine he
w.'is operating, and the machines have
always before been faste rthan any
operator. So 'the Nichols mark will
stand because It is just about as high
as human hands can place it. The
achievement is one of which he has
reason to be proud. He stands at the
fore front of his calling.
The soil In China Is so rich that a
square mile Is said to be capable of
supporting a population of nearly 4,
000 people.
Recessional
Tho Denver Post prints Kipling's
mngnlflcent hymn, "The Recessional,"
every Fourth of July to help keep
alive the spirit of patriotism: '
God of our fathers, known of old
I-ord of our far-flung battle line
Keue-nth whose awful hand we hold
Dominion over palm and pine;
Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet,
Lest we forgot, lest we forget!
The tumult nnd the shouting dies
The captains and the kings depart
Still stands Thine ancient sacrifice,
A humble and a contrite heart.
Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet.
Lest we forget, lest we forget!
Far called, our navies melt away
On dune and headland sinks tho
fire.
So, oil our pomp of yesterday
Is one with Nineveh and Tyre!
Judge of the nations, spare us yet,
Lest we forget, lest we forget!
If drunk wllh the sight of power, we
loose
Wild tongues that have not Thee In
awe
Such boasting as the Gentiles use,
Or lesser breeds without the law
Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet,
Lest wo forget, lest we forget!
For heathen heart that puts trust
In reeking tube and iron shard
All valiant dust that builds on dust.
And guarding, calls not Thee to
guard,
For frailties boast, and foolish word.
They mercy on Thy people, Lord!
Amen.
Rudyard Kipling.
All) MADAGASCAR RAM) HEADS.
A horrid thing has happened in
Madagascar. Several millions of peo
ple are becoming bald, according to
Captain Peter Wilberforce, who has
just arrived In New York and sailed
away again with 50 gross bottles of
hair tonic from the maker of a popu
lar brand.
The Inventor of this hair wash does
not pretend that It will remedy all
baldness. There are some cases, as In
woiilly-headed or kinky-haired people,
to which It was not Intended to apply.
Hut the natives of Madagascar think
It Is all right, because a Malagasy by
name of Antambahoaka, who was
completely bald, got a buttle of this
hair wash from a Cape Town doctor
and grew a resplendnnt hirsute adorn
ment which was straight and silky.
Before that It had been short and
kinky.
According to Captain Wilberforce,
who denies that he Is related to Wil
liam Wilberforce of anti-slavery fame,
the trouble In Madagascar Is that
some time ago they had a fever there.
It was Just like other fevers, except
that the patients of the Hovas tribe
(straight-haired) and of the tribe of
Belsimlscrnkas (kinky-haired) all be
came bald In the convalescent stages.
Dr. C. B. Jenkins of Cape Town,
happened to touch at Madagascar In
a steamer, and having a bottle of
American hair wash, offered It In a
Jocular spirit to Antamhaboaka, of
the Uetsimlserakas trlhe. At that
time the fever had taken away all his
wool. The American hair wash not
only grew his hair again, but In a
miraculous fashhn grew it straight.
Today as the advertlsment will
probably read In a few weeks An
tambahoaka walks the streets of the
Malagasy capital with a cane and a
high collar, the cynosure of the eyes
of all Malagasy maids, to whom
straight hair Is a thing of Joy forever.
One bottle of the American hair
wash was not enough, however, to
check the disease, and today, says
Captain Wilberforce, there are mil
lions In the hair wash business for
pioneers of an American Invasion of
the far east.
The Ma lagans are waiting on the
shores, says Captain Wilberforce, their
bald heads glistening In the sun, with
lookouts posted on date palms watch
ing the horizon for sails bringing
American hair wash. New York
Times.
THE BI RDEXS OF 1H SSTA.
Some of the monetnry burdens
borne by the people of Russia are:
National debt, J3.5O0.000.OOO.
Annual Interest on debt, JSO.000,-

Expended on Siberian and Mnn-
churlnn roads, 11,500,000,000.
Taxes unpaid by peasants (1900),
160,000,000.
Loss by Industrial depression . In
three years, $300,000,000.
Loss by famines In five years pre
ceding 1902, $600,000,000.
1 Eight famines, five since 1902, loss
$200,000,000.
Loss to tollers by 150 to 170 holi
days each year, $109,000,000.

Expenses of holy synod annually,
$18,500,000. ,
From these and other causes tho
revolutionary spirit has grown, partly
unobserved, In Russia for a decade or
more.
THE PERFECT FACE.
In a perfect face every feature
should bear a certain proportion to
every other feature. The width of tho
face should be equal to five eyes. The
distance between the eyes should be
exactly equal to one eye. Another
Important relation Is thnt between the
eyes and tho mouth. The width of
tho eyes should bo equal to two-thirds
that of the mouth. The nose should
be equal In length to the height of tho
forehead, of a regular shape, nnd pre
cisely defined outline. Medlcnl Talk
