for the reason that all the wholesale
firms belonged to the association and
refused to sell him stock with which
to carry on his trade and he refused
to be coerced Into Joining the association.
The result was that this Indepen
dent dealer was forced to send In or
ders under the names of people living
In the country. He made up a list of
50 farmers and ordered a large stock
of furniture through these fictitious
orders and In this way secured enough
goods to carry on his business.
There Is nothing remarkable In
this except to show how Independent
dealers are forced to fight for exist

Formerly it was easy to Inveigle the
Umattllas into street carnivals, pnrades
and processions. They took a delight
in exhibiting themselves in public and
were always on hand on the slightest
solicitation.
But now Fourth of July committees
plead In vain for n handful of Indians
for a parade. Flower shows and
fiesta processions beckon in vain to
Paul Phowawny. There is no longer
any allurement for him and his braves
In the once coveted publicity. Now
they only crave the river bank and
the shade of the soughing pines.
There Is not enough money In the
rose show treasury to entice Paul
to go with his once vociferous band

FORTY YEARS
OF CURES

GEORGE DARVKATJ, Proprietor.
The Denver News calls attention to
a significant political evolution or de
velopment which Is now taking place
In the United States and which is sig
nalized more particularly In the re
sults of the recent legislative session
in the state of New York. It Is the
passing of the legislatures of the va
rious states Into the hands of special
or centralized interests, either political
or Industrial, and deserves attention
The News says:
The papers of the entire country
have teemed with praises of Governor
Hughes of New York and rightly.
He is all that an executive should be.
He has shown it possible .for a clean
man In the governor's chair to get the
legislation which the people want,
without resorting to the trades and
bedevllmcnts of "practical" politic
ians.
He has made a record that takes
him appreciably nearer the White
House, and If he should indeed be
Roosevelt's successor, the only ones
who would regret his choice are those
whose dislike is a sure index of the
value of a public official.
But there Is something about this
New York situation which is by no
means so pleasant. That Is the virtual
abdication of the legislature. Hughes
has literally bossed the whole works.
He has done it by the clean might of
public opinion; he has been fair and
above board about the whole matter.
and he has acted steadily for the In
terests of the people.
But the point is that one of tho
three great branches of government
has practically ceased to exist. Its
chief business has been to carry out
the orders of the executive, grumbling
the while, but obeying.
And the condition in New York is
repeated In nearly every state in the
Union. The state legislatures have
lost their power. Sometimes the gov
ernor has picked it up, sometimes the
courts, often, too often. It has gone
Into the lrrespenslble hands of the "in.
terests." But everywhere It has cs

HISTOHY OF THE FLAG.
"THE PORTLAND BOOM.
There is an enormous amount of
eastern Oregon money going Into Port
land real estate, In speculation. But
It is questionable whether it Is safe
to venture further with the excessively
high prices of real estate now prevail
lng In the metropolis.
Additions to the city are being laid
out in the vicinity of Mt. Hood and
Oregon City, as it were, and there Is
no evidence now that these outlying
districts will be settled soon. Money
invested In the far outskirts where
property Is now comparatively cheap,
will perhaps lie idle for many years
and may not then, or ever, pay high
returns on the Investment, as Is now
expected.
Fabulous prices prevail In nil the
growing suburbs of Portland and good
Investments have been made there,
but not all the proffered Investments
are safe, and eastern Oregon people
not perfectly familiar with conditions
and prices of Portland real estate
should hesitate before sinking all their
surplus cash there In the expectation
of becoming Independently rich In
year from Increase In property prices.
METHODS OF A nOME TRUST.
In the recent Investigation of the
Oregon Furniture Dealesr" association
at Portland a number of the peculiar
methods of the trust were disclosed.
For Instance, one. dealer In a small
Oregon town not a thousand miles
from Portland, who refused to Join
the association, eould not bur a par
ticle of furniture from the Portland
wholesaler!. His business was abso
lutely threatened with annihilation,

JEWS THE LONGEST LIVED.
We saw, many years ago, says
George T. Angell in "Our Dumb Ani
mals," that, it hnd been ascertained
bv statistics that In England and some
continental European countries, Jews
lived, on the average, about five years
longer than Christians.
In an annual report of the state
board of health of Wisconsin, we find
an article on "Homes for the People,"
written by General James Blntllff of
D'irllngton, England, which seems to
confirm the above statement.
For very mnny centuries the Jews
were systematically persecutea Dy

One hundred and thirty years ago,
the American congress enacted, on
June 14, 1777, that the flag of the
3 United States be 13 stripes, alter
nating red and white; that the Union
be 13 stars, white In a field of blue,
representing a new constellation.
No provision was made at that time
for new states, and the future growth
of the United States was evidently not
considered by congress at the time
the net became a law, hence in 1 S 1 8

children of thot roce die under 1 year,
while 697, or more than 60 per cent
above the Jewish average die In the
first year out of the aggregate of
Christian births. In the four years
next ensuing, 388 Jewish children die
the offspring of Christians, already
much smaller In number, still heading
the death rate by nearly 25 per cent
the numbers being 477. From 6 years
old to 14, 151 children of the Jewish
race fall out of the rank, and one
third more, or 202, Christian children
die. From that age until 25 the Jews
lose 125. the Christians 155.
"During the 20 years ending at 45
there is a loss among the Jews of 231

BALAKALAVA'S 28 SURVrVOR.
In all the discussion of statement
No. 1 engaged In by the Pendleton
Tribune during the week just past, the
following pertinent points may be ad
duced:
The Tribune is opposed to statement
No. 1 and counsels prospective candi
dates for the legislature to refuse to
take It.
The Tribune believes that not the
people's choice, but the party's choice
for United States senator should be
elected by the legislature, regardless
of the popular vote.
The Tribune Is not willing to trust
the election of a. United .States eenator
to the people of Oregon, through fear
of the election of a candidate not a
republican.
The Tribune counsels the overthrow
of the popular election of United
States senators by the people, be
cause It fears that Independent voting
among the people may be the means
of electing an Independent candidate.
In short, the Tribune believes In the
sncredness of party In politics and is
willing to take the power out of the
people's hands if Independence threat
ens to overthrow partisan plans.
But the "keenest cut of all" Is that
the Tribune does not take the pledges
of republican members of the legisla
ture seriously, when It says that there
"Is no evidence thnt Oearln would
have been elected although he may
have received a larger popular vote
than Bourne." This is a direct impu
tation of dishonesty on part of re
publicans who honestly signed and
observed statement No. 1 In the last
election.
On October 25, 1S54, Lord Lucan
rim the British cavalry at
Kalaklava, through a misconception
ot the orders of the commander-in-chief,
Iord Raglan, directed Lord
Cirdigan to make the charge of the
Light Brigade, immortalized by
Tennvson's poem. With a battery in
front and one on each side 670 horse
men hewed their way past the guns
and routed the Russian cavalry. Of
the 670 onlv 1S8 "all that was left
cf them" rode back.
Today, nearly fifty-three years
later, one out of every seven of the
men who rode back Is alive. With
this percentage of survivors there
could nave been but few weaklings
In Lord Cardigan's brigade.
T. H. Roberts, who for years has
conducted a fund for the benefit of
the needy survivors of one of the
most brilliant feats ever credited to
British soldiers, has Just issued an ap-
ppal through a London newspaper
for contributions. For 28 needy,
verified survivors 'he received $2.50
In April and paid out $200.
