The greatest thing Is yet to be
done;
We have conquered distance,
we sail in air;
But the greatest triumph must
ttill be won,
The greatest glory Is still to
share.
We have risen high, we tire full
of pride.
But the great achievement
awaits us yet;
We have still to learn to be sat

cannot get.

In 1901, 180,000,000 capital (which
was an Increase of 115.000,000 over
the capitalization of the companies
acquired, without the Investment of a

improvements. Issues additional stock,
so that today our people are burdened
with a capitalization of $85,000,000 by
the XTnited Railroads, or a total of
(310,000 per mile of single track.
Thus, for every mile of double track
on Market, Sutter, Mission, Fllmore
and other streets we are asked to pay
on a capitalization of $680,000.
The capitalization of all the lines
in Massachusetts averages $50,000 per
mile of single track. - Even In cor
rupt, corporation-ridden New York,
the capitalization is but $112,000 per
mile of single track, or one-third that
of the United Railroads.
PENDLETON DAY AT THE FIESTA.
Pendleton could make a handsome
return of Portland's business men's
visit to this city a month ago, by go
ing down to Portland in numbers for
one day during the rose carnival and
fiesta, which will be held June 19 to
22.
will be In progress in .Portland that
week. Wednesday, June 19, will be
Oregon Pioneers' day. The fiesta
competitive exhibit will take place on
Thursday, June 20, at the forestry
building and 2000 school children will
be in line, covered with roses. On
Friday, June 21, the great fiesta
street procession will traverse the
Rose City for miles and on Saturday
the closing day of the Oregon Devel
opment league meeting, an elaborate
program will be enjoyed.
Pendleton can afford to take a day
off and take a trip to Portland week
after next for a day. Just a day;
how little it seems in the cycle of the
ages, and yet a day devoted to good
fellowship is an event of golden
promise in life.
Let us pull away from business and
go to Portland. Show her that we
appreciate her visit here and that we
invite her to come again next year.
' OVERCAPITALIZATION.
The one chief objecion to corpora
tion railroads and strett car lines, and
the thing which will finally overthrow
the system for government ownership,
Is overcapitalization making people
pay profits and dividends on money
not Invested, on values not represent
ed, on fictitious or watered stock
which Is not In existence.
The San Francisco Star gives a most
comprehensive statement of this evil
In connection with the United Rail
roads of that city which will stand as
an illustration for the entire system
of private railroads and street car
lines. The Star says:
Street railway transportation furn
ishes the excuse for the most Iniqui
tous of all the swindles perpetrated
on our people.
With a total of 250 miles of track,
which can be constructed today and
equipped with the most modern cars,
A TIP FROM WALLA WALLA.
The Walla Walla Statesman gives
the people of Pendleton a tip on rail
road building which is worth dollars
and cents to this city If heeded.
In speaking of the agitation by the
East Oregonlan for an extension of
the Simmons Landlng-Holdman rail
road to this city, the Statesman says:
Following the lead set by Walla
Walla, Pendleton Is now taking up the
matter of a railroad from that city to
the Columbia to connect with the
Open River association's line of
steamers.
In urging the building of a con
necting road Pendleton people point
out that within a comparatively short
time, the irrigated districts being
opened up in eastern Oregon will be
gin producing tons of produce, the
cheap transportation of which threat
ens to become a serious problem. The
development and settlement of these
new Irrigated sections are largely de
pendent on transportation.
Pendleton people are not lack'ng In
enthusiasm, BUT IF THEY WILL
BACK UP THEIR VIEWS WITH A
LITTLE HARD CASH, like Walla
Walla people have in promoting the
Columbia & Walla Walla Traction
company, their dreams of a railroad
to the Columbia -may soon be realized
There Is no use to croak or com
plain about the expenses of maintain
ing a city. There will always be mu
nicipal expenses and the more pro
gress made the greater will those ex
penses be, to a certain limit. There
are new streets to open, old streets to
maintain, sewer extensions to make,
fire and police protection to extend to
new sections, water, -light and sani
tary expenses to meet and Imperative
demands to meet on every hand.
Economy and honesty are always de
manded, but never parsimony. A city
cannot afford to be stingy. It cannot
afford to get the reputation of being
narrow and selfish. Cities are a re
flex of individual life and if we are
to invite settlers, neighbors and home
builders we must offer them the glad
hand, with a lot of conveniences, com
forts and advantages in addition.

Mrs. Alice Bradley, Thorold, Ont., Can., write:
"Two years ago I became weak and rundown
and as time passed I gradually failed until a year
ago, when I -experienced a stroke of paralysis,
which affected one side and I was helpless.
. "I called In professional medical treatment, but
steadily grew worse,
"I had decided I never would rise again from my
bed, but, when Peruna was brought to me and after
having taken four bottles of it, I was able to be ont
and a wonder to myself and friends.
'I consider Peruna a great blessing to the afflicted.
I may add that my daughter has also nsed Peruna
and has been blessed with renewed health. I believe
Peruna saved our lives."
Mrs. Daniel Passmore, Wetland, Ontario, Can., writes :
"For three years I was severely afflicted with stom
ach trouble, and for days at a time 1 could not eat any
thing. I grew thin in flush, had headaches and was the
picture of despair,
"I was attended by three doctors, but got no good
rosults.
"Finally I began the use of Peruna. I soon noticed
an improvement and after using three bottles, I was
able to relish a meal, in fact, could eat anything,
"To-day I feel well and strong. I consider that Peru
na has saved my life and 1 shall always praise It."

Clean Up Once a Year.
CLEANING up the body in the spring
is a duty everyone owes to himself.
Face powders may hide a rough skin,
but Peruna helps to produce a skin that
need not be hidden.
The source of good blood Is good di
gestion. Peruna aids digestion.
Those people who have regular bodily
functions have a clear and dellcateskln.
Peruna helps to restore these functions.
Most skin deformities depend, upon
system! derangements, which cannot
be corrected by local treatments.
Peruna Is a systemic remedy, reorgan
ising and regulating the whole body.

"Latt spring I caught a severe cold
which developed into a serious case ot
catarrh. I felt weak and sick and could
neither eat nor sleep well.
"A member of our club, who had been
cured of catarrh through tbe use of
Peruna, advised me to try it and I did
so at once.
"I expected help, but nothing like the
wonderful change for tbe better 1 ob
served almost as soon as I started tak
ingit. "In three days I felt much better, and
within a week I was well.
"I continued taking the entire bottle
and within two weeks I was in fine
health."
"Peruna la a wonderful medicine."

Out of the Ror.ps of frailest birds;
Out of the winds that veer,
My soul has wir.nowed deathless
words
Of faith and hope and cheer!
Out of the passing stars of night,
And inning suns of ilay.
My soul I, as woven robes of light
That shall not fade awny!
Out of the lowering clou.ls above,
And out of stcrm and stress,
My soul has gathered dews of love,
And golden happiness!
Out of Its travail like the sea;
Out of the brfath of dust,
My soul has shaped Infinity,
And made Itrelf august!
