No net falls fruitless

How vast Its power may be.
Nor what results Infolded dwell
Within It silently.
Work on, despair not. bring thy

Nor care how small It be;
Oo,l is with all that serve the

The holy, true and free.
Anon.
Scorn not the slightest word or

Nor deem It void of power;
There's fruit in each wind-wafted

That watts Its natural hour.
A whispered word may touch
the heart.
And call It back to life;
A look of love bid sin depart,
And still unholy strife.

The aiinuu icemer.t by the Walla
Walla Traction company Unit electric
cars will be runr.'ng f'nm the Garden
City to Milton and Freewater by the
first of the year, means as much to
Pendleton as to any other point.
From Milton to Athena is but a
short step, all the way thru a thickly
populated district. From Athena to
Pendleton is but another brief space,
likewlze thickly settled, and from
Pendleton thru the irrigated land
under the government project to the
Columbia river at either Umatilla or
Cold Springs, is but another stage of
the inevitable progress.
There is your continuous chain of
electric lines from the Columbia river
to Walla Wallu, and the end of the
line will bo at Spokane before we re
aliz? that It ia being bill.
That will give the inland empire
direct river communication. It will
mean quick transit frequent trains,
deve'opment of tarmlng communities
and a continlous claim of farm
houses for 300 miles from I'matllla
Junction to Spokane.
This may seem a visionary view of
this matter, but It seems to be found
ed upon inevitable developments. The
Irrigated section of Umatilla county
under the government project and the
Furnish project will not be long with
out ample transportation. That dis
trict will produce an abundant of
marketable stuff. People will wish
to come and go frequently between
their homes and the county seat, and
after good v. agon roads and mall
routes and t.-lefones, then will surely
come the electric line.
If the electric line Is bllt to Free
water by January 1, 1907, as It Is now
intended, It will be but a brief time
until the whir of the wheels will
awaken Pendletonlans from their
early morning dreams.
This, county has not yet begun Its
logical development.
'i'lu National Manufacturers' asso
clrtion and other trust interests which
ait- oppuxed to the spread of enlight
enment and which fear public ex
posure of their criminal acts thru the
press are agitating for an Increase In
the rite of newspaper postage In
hopes of suppressing hundreds of
small papers which are now "thorns
in their sides" becauze of the expo,
ures made thru them.
The Chicago Livestock World
rtiike: a keynote In an editorial op
pozlng this trust movement. The
World rays:
Certain people and Interests ure
working to have the potal rate on
newspapers increased to a point that
would put cut of blzness a largo num
be- of publications that the people
seem to have regarded as useful and
valuable to them.
Publishers pay the government $20
a ton for distributing papers to the
people and the people get the benefit
of this low cost in low subscription
prices. It Is propozed to Increase the
cost to publishers to S tS or $S0 a t
and some representatives of the peo
ple (?) are advocating an Increase
of SlflO per ton. Railroads only
charge ft! a ton for hauling logs from
Chicago to Philadelphia and are glad
to get the bizness. Why, then, should
It cost so enormously to have news
papers hauled across the country?
Newspapers are the primal source
of postal revenues and the greater
thfir circulation at the pre.ent rate
of pr.stage the less the deficit. Wil-
rr.er Alklnson.
The work of carrying second-cla.ss
matter is not done for the publisher,
but for the reader. If the expense of
carrying was higher the reader would
have to pay thp Increased cost. Sen
ator Bailey.
OUT OK THE JOKING STAGE.
The Kast Oregonian is out of the
Joking stage In regard to the simpll
fied spelling. It Is serious in adopt
lng some sensible reform which Is sure
to be universally adopted by newspa
pers In time.
And It predicts now, that within
very few years, the editor of tht
Morning Tribune who now trembles
for the safety of the F.nglish language,
will he seen searching his lillckens-
derfer typewriter for new forms of
simplified spelling which seem to him
today to be cold blooded homicide.
The American book trust has no
patent on the language. Becauze
none of their publications now contain
reformed words, Is not an assurance
that school books with reformed
spelling wilt not be issued by the
thousands, and that within a short
-
time.
Why not limber up the long silent
keys upon the Bllckensderfer, brother,
and give your "z's," "f's" and other
dezervlng letters the fatherly assur
ance that they are members of the
English alfabet, as well as the petted
"s's," "ph's" and other spoiled child:
ren of the household. You will have
to fall In line some time. Why not
be well up toward the head of the
procession?
COME TO THE FAIR.
Every day opens up new and
brighter prospects for the Umatilla-
Morrow county fair. It looks now as
tho It would surpass even the expec
tatlons of the commission and manag
ers. The last days are developing
much In the way of exhibits. Farm
ers are going to bring In their mule
and horses, colts, their cows, calves
fillies, milk cows and other animals,
for the stock shows. Ample shed
room is to be provided. A number of
good sized premiums will be given and
this feature of It will be excellent.
The pavilion will also be a delight
ful spot. Evergreens, ferns, bunting,
grains, grasses and other stuff will
be uzed In large quantities to relieve
This perfectly natural changa
In a woman's life Is too often ac
companied by painful, distressing
symptoms due to female troubles
and slight Irregularities In her deli
cate organism.
The woman who passes this
change without the development of
tumors, cancers, or chronic Invalid
Ism enters a new field of happiness
and usefulness In the domestic cir
cle and in social activity. Her phy
sical system should receive tha
necessary assistance at this critical
period.
lydiaE.Pinkhara's Vegetable Compound
Is exactly suited to woman's needs at this time. It strengthens and
cures all derangements of the female organism, It overcomes the hot
flashes and dizzy fainting spells, and all other distressing symptoms.
I Wa.s In Bed for Three Weeks
Deas Mrs. Pinkham : I suffered a great deal during Change of Ufa. For
leven weeks I had hemorrhages and It made me so weak I was in bed for three weeks.
I began taking Lydia E. Pmkham's Vegetable Compound, although It was ga nst
my doctor's will and I had to hide It. 1 took if regularly until 1 had taken five bottles,
and It brought me out all right, a perfectly strong, well woman. Any one can tell how
healthy I am by looking at my picture, and any one can write to me or my daughter
about our wonderful cures. , ..
Mrs. F. M. Mushrusm, East Chicago, Ind.
The whole secret of safety at this time of life Is thorough preparation before tht
change begins. Fortify the system with a course of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound. This wonderful medicine has carried thousands of women through this
danger period. 1
No such helpful advice to women who are sick can be had anywhere as will bo
received free by addressing Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass. Mrs. Plnkham Is daughter-in-law
of Lydia E. Pinkham, and for twenty-five years under her direction, and since her
decease, she has been advising sick women free of charge.

WOMEN" IX AISTKALIA.
With traveling men making this city
their headquarters, with young men
and women coming from a distance to
fill Pendleton dormitories, with per
manent street Improvement In sight
with one of the best Irrigated districts
In the northwest now opening at the
gates of the city and with a contlnu
ous movement of substantial farmers
from the surrounding country to this
city, It looks as tho the future holds
much more for Pendleton than has
been enjoyed In any past period.
"A Queensland, Australia, man told
me," mys Chnrles Edward Russell In
"Soldiers of the Common Good," In
Everybody's Magazine for October,
"thut he doubted If In his purl of the
country they could have achieved
much If It had not been for the
women.
"Every avenue of employment was
absolutely In the hands of the en
trenched governing classes, and every
man that agitated for election reform
whs not only discharged but black
listed and boycotted. He found It Im
possible to obtain employment any
where; no man dared to hire him.
"George Ryland was blacklisted for
five years. They would not let him
plow nor chop wood nor drive horses.
t looked like a hopeless fight against
power so great and so arbitrary.
Often the men were discouraged, but
the women, never: they had more
pluck than the men.
'The savage Injustice had Rtlrred
their utmost resentment; one and all
they urged their husbands to keep on
and never to yield. In many cases
wives assumed the burden of support-
ng the family. Some turned dress
makers and some cooks.
One family that I know lived four
years on a weekly Income of between
S3 and 4 earned with her needle oy
the wife and mother. The husband
tramped Queensland looking In rain
for work. With such a spirit among
thi. women the situation could not
long- continue.
"A body of voters grew up not or
the labor element but painfully con
vinced that existing conditions were
wrong. These united with the 1
labor men that had the franchise,
hetter' element was outvoted and
overturned, the suffrage was reform
ed, the labor party swept Into posses
slon of the Queensland state govern
ment and holds that government to
day."
No danger of the Associated Press
adopting anything new unless It
could monopolize it. Simplified spell
lng has no charms for this little trust,
becauze the people would be getting
something from it free, should It use
the new form In Its news dispatches.

THE OLD HAIL KEXC'K.
It binds the end of the orchard
That slopes away to the east.
And stored In Its tnngled borders
'Is many a lunclous feast.
A butternut guards one corner,
Wild grapes weave a leafy screen,
And flaunting Its orange berries
The bittersweet creeps between.
Ench spring It hides In Its shadows
A bright eyed bird on a nest
And curves in alluring f:ishlon
A rail that Invites to rest.
It leans in quiet contentment
AKalnst a thorn apple tree
And watches over a meadow
Where bobolinks sing In glee.
Dark stained nnd warped by the
weather,
'And furrowed by rainy tears,
It wears odd patches of lichen
Put there by the passing years;
Tet clothed It Is in a beauty
That changes from day to day
And leaves on my mind a picture
That never shall fade away.
