Trouble? Don't you mind It;
and don't you mind the
care;
Push them all behind you and
dream of heavens fair.
The sorrows and the shadows
that fall across the way
Will fade before the sunbeams
and the blossomings of
of May.
Don't you mind the grieving
for grief must play Its
part;
' Tears must blind the sight, dear,
e'er Joy creeps In the
heart.
Don't you mind the thistles that
wound the weary feet
We e'en must taste the bitter
that we may know the'
sweet.
Will F. Griffin, in Milwau-
kee Sentinel.
The East Oregonlan is publishing
the advertisements of the leading can
didates for county offices and voters
are urged to look over there ads In
order to keep posted on the progress
of the campaign. There promises to
be several candidates for each of the
leading offices and the voters will
"want to know who they are.
OREGON WINS FIRST 1UTTLE.
The first battle for the life of the
Initiative and referendum amendment
to the constitution of Oregon has been
won by the state. In the decision of
Judge Clfland of Portland yesterday,
sustaining the Initiative and referen
dum law, the enemies of progrers
were dealt a body hljw.
The Pacific States Te'.rgraph and
Telephone company, si-eking to set
aside the amendment. beciuce it did
not wish to pay to the state the sum
of UO, 450. 68 as a griMs i-urnlng tax
levied by the people, has received a
direct tip that the courts are with the
people. As is the lower court's de
cree, so will that of tli upper court
be, and the big corporation might as
well decide now to "pony" up U
taxes.
This opposition of the telephone
company to the will of the people U
but an Incident In the mirch of pro
gress. The Initiative and referendum
amendment to the constitution Is
founded on the solid bisls of popular
government and will .stand the shocks
of selfishness, politics and greed. The
people are the supreme power In the
state and their will mut and will be
the law.
Umatilla, Pilot Rock and Pendleton
have all seen new papers established
within the past few days and the Hast
Oregonian welcomes them all into the
field. There Is always room for an
other booster. This year Is going t j
be especially active In Umatilla coun
ty and every town In the county must
get Its shoulder to the wheel for new
settlers.
THE PENDLETON SPIRIT.
That is an excellent response which
the people of Pendleton hive made to
the demand for cemetery Improve
ments. In this as In every other
movement of this kind, everybody
gives. There has been no stint.
Purse strings which have been prov
erbially tied have been loosed and the
donations have been good.
Some surprise Is expressed that a
few prominent men who have made
all their wealth in Penlleton have
not given more, but tln-re Is no cen
sure. It is perfectly satisfactory.
Every man is the best Ju Jge of his
own ability. Let us all d what we
can. Nobody can ask any more than
this.
At the present rate tile cemetery
fund will have been, rai.-ej within a
i short time. Work should begin this
spring. The cemetery should be made
to bloom this season.
The Pendleton spirit, that inspiring
activity which does things, is stronger
this spring than ever. It has receiv
ed a new animus from the promise of
the future and things will, be done
with a vim this year.
list, every day, somewhere, without
hope or thought of reward.
There Is scarcely & man of middle
age and common experience In any
walk of llf.-- who has not performed
some daring act, although It might
not have seemed such to him at the
time, and while the spirit 'In which
Mr. Carnegie founded the hero fund
as excellent and Intended for the en
couragenunt of courageous acts, yet
that It has a tendency to stimulate
self-seoklr. "heroes" In their quest
for a med il goes without saying.
Every genuine hero Is repaid for
the act of bravery by the satisfaction
of knowing that his duty was well
performed. True heroism needs no
further reward.
The late lamented flurry on Wall
street did not Jouch Umatilla county,
Judging from the manner In which
taxes are pouring Into the sheriffs
office this week. By the end of the
week a large proportion of the taxes
will have been paid and there will be
plenty of money left with which to
carry on the business of the county.
With one crop on the way to market
and another on the way to maturity
there Is nothing the matter with Uma
tilla county.
KATHLEEN MAVOURNEEN.
INVINCIBLE MISSOURI WOMEN!
Pendleton public schools have done
the proper thing in Indorsing the Uni
versity of Oregon appropriation. This
great state institution must not be
handicapped in its work. It need
the fund with which to make needed
improvements and to keep pace with
other universities In adjoining states.
Every school and school board In the
state should Insist on the passage of
the university appropriation at the
June election. The state cannot af
ford not to sustain the legislative ap
propriation. It Is no more than is re
quired for the progress and develop
ment of the university.
George. E. Chamberlain was elected
governor of Oregon by but 250 -votes
In 1S02. T. T. Ceer alone Influenced
more than this number of voters to
cast their ballots for Chamberlain,
perhaps, and may be thus held direct
ly responsible for the defeat of the
republican nominee. And yet Mr.
C"-r has the audacity to say In his
paper that he always votes for the
republican candidate, no matter what
V.lnd of a man he Is, what his personal
feelings may be in the matter, or what
excuses may be offered, for voting for
a democrat. It will be difficult to
make many veteran republicans in
Umatilla county and eastern Oregon
believe that Mr. Oeer voted for the
republican candidate for governor In
T 902.
T. T. Gcer need not think that be
cause he has been a republican voter
for 35 years, (except In 1902 when
. 1: voted for Chamberlain) that he
r ii any monopoly of republican sen
timent. Younger members of the
party are entitled to talk. The aus
tere old aenate thought to "haze"
Senator La. Toilette because he was
"wr." La Follette showed the sen
ate several tricks, new as he was.
Lecause Mr. Ceer first crosed the
Umatilla river where Main street
bridge is nr,A- located in Pendleton 41
years ago. does not give hlrn the ex
clusive right to talk politics in Uma
tilla county. After a pumpkin hangs
or the vine so long. It becomes over
ripe, which Mr. Geer, being a farmer,
perhaps knows, it is poflble fir a
man to be overripe as a politician,
also.
The women of Missouri. God bless
them, do things right. They cannot
vote, but they can all but vote; they
can influence votes as Ls shown In
the following Item from the Kansas
City Star concerning tue city election
at Chllllcothe, this week. The Star
says:
Chllllcothe, Mo., voted out the sa
loons Tuesday by the decisive majjri
ty of 243, the vote standing S40 "dry"
and 597 "wet." The election followed
a lively campaign. Chllllcothe has 13
caloons and two brewery agencies. On
the side of the saloons many politic
ians lined up.
The temperance force: were out
Tuesday morning before daylight. A
parade of children wai held as so'on
ss It was light enough f?r them to
march. This parade was repeated
several times during the d iy.
Two bands were in line, a band
from Chula volunteering Its services
without cost. Floats and banners
represented the "water wigon" and
expressed temperance sentiments. The
women after the first parade scatter
ed themselves about th? business
streets and were busy all day.
Saloon workers were constantly
shadowed by women. Protests on the
part of the saloon men were of no
avail. The women kept everlastingly
at It, and every time a saloon man
tried to have a confidential talk with
an Impressionable voter, he found a
woman at his elbow. Chillioothe's sa
loons have been paying a J 1000 city
license and 1700 county and state
license each.

The EaHt Oregonlan has Just re
ceived, the first published report of
the Carnegie Hero Fund commission
which gives a list of the officials of
the commission) the names of the he
roes honored, the amount of the prizes
and all information concerning the
acts of heroism rewarded.
So far there have been 11! 8 awards
under this fund, ranging ail the way
from a bronze medal to a cash gift
of $6000, according to the degree of
heroism.
In looking over the list of the acts
of heroism which have been reward
ed by this commission, one Ls struck
with the commonplace character of
most or many of them. Ordinarily,
the common Instincts of bravery, hu
manity, sympathy, courage are suf
ficient to actuate true men to deeds
of heroism. Men perform acts of
bravery equal to any recorded In this j
