O my soul!
Aa the swift seasons roll!
Leave thy low-aulted past!
Let each new temple, nobler

Shut thee from heaven with a

Leaving thine outgrown shell

RAILROAD ACCIDENTS.
The appalling carnage resulting
from railroad accidents, as shown by
the Quarterly accident bulletin com
plied by the Interstate commerce
commission, is not presented In all its
distressing details It merely reveals
the facts. If the story of the deaths
and Injuries, merely enumerated by
the commission, were made public It
would fill a book.
The report shows that for the first
three months of 1906 there were 1126
deaths and 17,170 Injuries resulting
.from railroad accidents of all kinds.
The deplorable fact about these fig
ures Is that the most of the accidents
resulted from collisions, many of
jvhlch could have been avoided ty
proper regulative and preventive
measures. There were many casual
ties of common occurrence and Inci
dent to the danger that Is necessarily
Involved In general travel and traffic
and which are beyond the control of
the railroads. But that the Ineffi
ciency and carelessness are responsl
Me for the large death rate Is unques
tionable. There will always be an
element of danger In travel, but It
should be reduced to a minimum.
Every precaution should be. taken co
safeguard the lives of the traveling
public intrusted to the care of public
service corporations.
The block system of signals Is pri
marily based on the "Interval" be
tween trains, and where It has been
Installed the number of casualties
have been greatly reduced. If all
the railroads In the United statisti
cian would have another set of figures
to present.
There are provisions in the new
rate law having for their object the
protecting of the lives rj railroad em
ployes and the traveling public, and
President Roosevelt has been a per
sistent advocate of strong legislation
On the subject
LAW ENFORCEMENT IN KANSAS.
The best thing that ever happened
to Missouri was the election of Gover
nor Folk on the law enforcement Issue
tie made by his record ana declara
tlons. It rid the state of a grafting
political machine; It made the laws
Of the state mean what they say; It
gave Missouri the best advertisement
It ever had. But what Is more Inr
portant than these things, it marked
the asertlon of the people of Missouri
In favor of public morals, civic de
cency and official honesty, and It has
left them with the pride and the In
uplration of good work well done.
The lesson of Missouri has not been
lost on the people of Kansas. In the
latter state conditions are much the
name as they were In Missouri when
Kolk was making his race for gover
nor. There Is a state machine with
complete control of the admlnlstra
klre organs. In this Instance the
Opposition leader has not arisen from
the ranks of the Incumbent and dis
credited party, but has been chosen
by the opposition party. Colonel
Harris Is trying to do for Kansas
and If the people elect him will do for
Kansas what Folk has done for Mis
souri. He Is well equipped for his
law enforcement policy. He is a man
of fine executive capacity and sound
official cournge. He Is not under
obligations to any special Interest or
class. He Is free handed, and he will
administer his office without preju
dice or favoritism.
It Is a mere matter of detail that In
Missouri Folk was opposed to a gen
eral violation of the law, and to a
grafting machine of his own party,
while In Kansas Harris Is opposed to
the same general violation of the law,
but to a machine of the opposition
party. Nowadays the people do not
care much to which party a machine
belongs. They are against It, and
when they are determined to put an
end to machine manipulation and
corporation rule and to Insist on the
enforcement of the laws, they do not
care much to which party the right
man for leader belongs. What they
want la the man. And Coionel Har
ris Is the man for Kansas.
TRANSFORMATION IN KLAMATH.
A trip Into Klamath county, Ore.,
at this time affords an Interesting il
lustration of the development going
on in an agricultural way through
out the Pacific northwest It is a
change from the wasteful methods of
a new country without transportation
facilities, where land Is unlimited and
competition almost unknown, to a
status of higher land values and
keener competItIon.
The happy-go-lucky and slipshod
methods of the early pioneer are fast
passing away, and the new and im
proved way of doing things is gradu
ally gaining ground. The large
bands of cattle and horses that were
at one time the main source of rev
enue of this vast domain, are fast di
minishing In size but increasing In
quality. The large land owners are
dividing up their tracts Into small
farms, and eventually this section,
unlike many range sections, will be
dctted with fine homes.
One of the distinctive features of
the Klamath region Is 'Us wonderful
opportunity for agricultural develop
ment through Irrlgatien. The govern
ment has undertaken the construction
of a most feasible and extensive re
clamation project here that will cost
about 14,000.000 and reclaim about
250.000 acres of land well adapted to
grlcultural pursuits. Under the
terms of which these lands are being
reclaimed a government water right
will not be sold to a non-resident or
for a tract exceeding 160 acres. This
Insures a large settlement of actual
farmers and stockmen, which will
take the place of the rangemen In
breeding and feeding.
The ranges adjoining the Irrigated
district of this section are the best on
the coast, which will add much to the
breeding Industry'- Cattle and horse
breeding will continue to be the lead
ing Industry, but upon a different
basis. - We may expect in the future
to see Improved methods in breeding
and feeding In this section; better
horses, mules and beef will be sent to
market, that will bring better prices.
The successful growing of alfalfa.
grain and roots under the Irrigation
system and wit hthe transportation
facilities that are fast forging ahead,
this will be one of the greatest feed
ing grounds on the coast for the pro
duction of choice beef, pork and
mutton. Rural Spirit,

Why Is Machinery
Cheaper Abroad?
"Tom Watson's Magazine" claims
to have some interesting figures from
Buenos Ayres, as follows:
The Advance plow, which sells In
this country for 818, is sold In Buenos
Ayres for $9.
The hay tedder which costs you 145
Is sold In Buenos Ayres at $30.
The mower costs you 165, It costs
the South American farmer $40.
You pay 125 for a horse rake, down
trodden Eouth Americans pay $17.
The feed cutter No. 3, for which we
pay $90, goes to the poor foreigner
at $60.
The Ann Arbor cutter demands $40
of us; It is satisfied with $28 In Bue
nos Ayres.
The cultivator which Is priced to
you at $30, Is sold to the South Amer
ican for $22.
These are not the products of the
"pauper labor of Europe," but of the
factories of America, which are glad
to get the prices that they have to
take when they get out from under
the protection of too high tariff.
Commenting on this, the American
Economist, organ of the Protective
Tariff league, says:
Practically all the machines named
In this list are controlled by trusts
which, like the Standard Oil trust, the
Ice trust, the anthracite trust and
many others, are in no way assisted
by the tariff. The various farm Im
plements: get all their protection from
patents and patented processes of
manufacture. They hate the tariff,
and would like to see it cut down by
revision or by reciprocity agreements
which would give them a still better
chance to sell to foreigners at cut
prices.
IMMORTAL LIKE.
It nfemeth such a little wuy to me
Across thut strange country the
Beyond;
And yet not strange, for It has grown
to be
The home of those of whom I am
so fond;
They make It seem familiar and most
dear,
As journeying friends bring dlstint
regions near.
So close it lies, that when my sight Is
clear
I think I almost see the gleaming
strand;
I know I feel those who have gone!
from here
Come near enough sometimes to
touch my hand.
I often think, but fcr our veiled eyes
We should find heaven right around
about us lies.
I cannot make It seem a day to dread.
When from this dear world I shall
Journey out
To that dear country of the dead,
And Join the lost ones so long
dreamed about.
I love this world, yet shall I love to go
And meet tho friends who wall for
mo, I know.
I never stand above a bier and see
The seal of death on some well
loved face.
But that I think one more to wel
come me
When I shall cross the Intervening
space
Between this land and that one over
there;
One more to make the strange Be
yond seem fair.
And so for me there nothing Is In
death,
And so the grave has lost its vic
tory; It Is but crossing with abated breath
And white-set face, a little Btrlp of
sea,
To find the loved ones waiting on the
shore,
More beautiful, more precious than
before.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox.
PILOTED INTO UNKNOWN SEAS.
Tom Watson, in his "Life of Jef
ferson," says that the convention
which drew up the constitution of the
United States was ostensibly called
not to make a constitution but to reg
ulate commerce.
The colonies were too Jealous of
their Individuality then for the closer
union Into a Nation with a big N,
which Hamilton and others wished.
It would not be surprising If, for a
second time in this nation's history,
a national convention be called to re'
vise transportation rates that will go
far beyond the original Intent and
usher In a general revolution In the
laws regarding property rights.
Some of the greatest movements In
history have always been started by
conservatives who unintentionally Inl
tlated a revolution when they Intend'
ed but a small reform. At the begin
nlng George Washington did not look
for separation of the American colo
nles from England, nor did Lincoln
for abolition of slavery as the result
of their actions. Luther never
thought of a great Protestant reform
ation. Roosevelt, the Conservative, may
go down to history as a revolutionist
if he keeps up his talk about regulat
ing railway rates.
In the last generation the town of
Orsn, Sweden, has sold $5,750,000
worth of trees. By careful replanting
a like Income Is guaranteed for every
30 or 40 years. Railways, telephones
and many other luxuries are free.
Hablt-formfng Medicines.
Whatever may be the fact as to many
of the so-called patent medicines con
taining Injurious Ingredients as broadly
fiubllsned In tome journals of more or
uss Influence, this publicity has certainly
been of great benefit in arousing needed
attention to this subject, It hM, In a
considerable measure, resulted in the
most Intelligent people avoiding such
foods and medicines as may be fairly sus
pected of containing: the injurious Ingre
dients complained of. Recognising this
fact tome time ago. Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo,
N. Y., 'took time by the forelock, as It
were, ana published broadcast all the
Ingredient of wljjch his popular medi
cines are composed. Thus ha has com
pletely forestalled all harping critics and
all opposition that might otherwise be
urged against )ils medicines, because they
are now 6r kKOwx composition. Fur
thermore, from the formula printed on
every bottle wrapper. It will be sees that
these medicines eontaln no alcohol or
other habit-forming drugs. Neither do
they contain any narcotics or injurious
agents, their ingredients being purely
vegetable, extracted from the roots of
medicinal plants found growing in the
depths of our American forests and of
wall reoof nlted curative virtues.
Instead of alcohol, which even In small
portions long continued, as In obstinate
cases of dlaeaaes, becomes highly objec
tionable from its tendency to produce a
craving for stimulants, Dr. Pierce em
ploys chemically pure, triple -refined
glycerine, which of Itself Is a valuable
remedy in many oases of chronic diseases,
being a superior demulcent, antiseptic,
antlferment and supporting nutritive.
It enhances the curative action of the
Golden Seal root. Stone root, Black

A PENDLETON CASE.
Many More Like it in Pendleton.
The following case is but one of
many similar occurring dally In Pen
dleton. It Is an easy matter to veri
fy Its correctness. Surely you cannot
ask for better proof than such con
clusive ev dence.
W. A. Rose, living on Cottonwood
street, Pendleton, Ore., says: Doan's
Kidney Pills were first brought to
my notice some four years ago when
I was living In Peoria, 111. At that
time I was suffering severely from an
attack of kidney complaint and could
scarcely do a day's work. To stoop
or rise aftor stooping hurt so acutely
that I could hardly keep from crying
out When a man has suffered with
a back which felt half the time aa
though It was broken, which could
not stand the slightest pressure, when
he could not sit down, stand or He
with any comfort and still has to go
to his dally w rk he naturally be
comes anxious about his condition. 1
procured Doan's Kidney Pills, used
them and they cured me. About a
year ago I came to Washington, and
shortly afterwards noticed symptoms
of my old trouble. I procured Doan's
Kidney Pills at Pendleton Drug com
pany's store and three boxes
completely banished the trouble leav
ing no signs that I had ever had a
touch of kidney trouble in my life.
Doan's Kidney Pills do all that Is
claimed for them. Tou are welcome
to refer to me at any time and I will
gladly give i 1 partlcu) rs In a per
sonal Interview to any one calling
upon me."
