Over the hillslopes and down
through the hollows
The ilvei'-elad water sprites
rally. and run;
As fleet are their feet aa the
wing of the swallows.
And whither they fare there's
a gladness that follows
As fresh and as bright and aa
blithe as the sun.
And lo! at their touch there
awakens, there kindles,
A subtle, pervasive, unnama
ble thing!
The blight upon beauty, like
darkness It dwindles.
For the workers of wonders are
whirling their spindles.
And fingers are lithe on the
loom of the spring.

SENATORIAL PLOTTING.
The Baker City Herald strikes a
keynote when it says that the effort
of the machine politicians of Oregon
Is to defeat the popular election of
senators and throw the senatorial
election into the hands of the legis
lature as of old.
The only possible way by which
this old fight In the legislature is to
be eliminated is for the people to
enact statement No. 1 Into law at tho
coming June election and place the
senatorial election absolutely beyond
the reach of the politicians. This
election belongs in the hands of th.?
people and the people should forever
wipe the senatorial deadlock off the
records of Oregon by taking to them
selves the power of selecting their
senators.
The Herald says of the matter:
It is no surprise that T. B. Wilcox
should indorse Fulton's campaign In
a strong letter. Wilcox would like
til be senator himself, according to In
side information, and if Fulton should
win in the primaries It Is thought
Wilcox has a notion Chamberlain
would beat Fulton at the polls.
Should this be true and a repub
lican legislature be elected, it Is like
ly that Mr. Wilcox and his friends
would try to throw the election of
United States senator back to the leg
islature, thus giving a chance for
dark horses and old methods.
CITY BONDS AS BAROMETERS.
.Speaking of city bonds as barom
eters of business conditions and fi
nancial health, the Spokane Chroni
cle pays a glowing tribute to the ex
cellent condition of the inland em
pire. Foremost in the cities of the
inland empire is Pendleton, the coun
ty seat of Umatilla county und finan
cial center for half a dozen eastern
Oregon counties.
The sale of Pendleton bonds at good
figures in Boston this week places
this city among the gilt-edged offer
ings on the money market of the east.
The Investigation of financial and
commercial conditions here made by
Rollins & Sons before purchasing
Pendleton city bonds has been the
best advertisement ever sent out for
the city. That advertisement has
placed Pendleton prominently before
the world as a solid, substantial,
growing city of a rich section.
The addition of 10 blocks of new
paving to her already targe paved
district will further enhance the value
bf Pendleton city bonds and will give
the city still more advertising, which
It Justly deserves.
The Spokane Chronicle says of the
subject:
About the first sign of the panic
that paralyzed the country last fall
v.'as a lack of markets for bonds,
showing that there was such a bor
rowing demand for money that it was
more profitable to loan cash than to
put it Into gilt-edge securities.
The bond market Is still quiet, but
1: Is greatly Improved, which is taken
by financiers as an Indication of im-
saaBC r '
proving conditions the country over.
The fact that an iaaue of $3,000,
000 worth of bonds by a local com
pany was sold In the Inland empire
recently is a good Indication of the
soundness of conditions In the north
west. The necessity of a good market for
bonds, and the prosperity resultant
upon a good market for them, la the
fact that most railroads and large
corporations obtain money for their
purchases by the sale of bonds, and
tho money they use helps to koop
mills and factories busy, carrying
large payrolls and an immense con
sumption of raw materials.
Railroads can not build extensions
or increase equipment unless they can
soil bonds, and If extensions are aban
doned thousands of men are made
Idle. The whole business life of the
country is Interdependent.
EASTERN OBJDGOITS INTEREST.
The experience which Congressman
W. R. Ellis has gained In his service
in congress Is worth dollars and cents
to the people of this district. He Is
in position to secure needed legisla
tion and to further the vital Interests
of this section of the state.
A new man would have to gain that
experience, build up acquaintance,
form congressional friendships, "learn
the' ropes" and consume the people's
time, for a large part of the term In
becoming familiar with the routine.
All of these things are assets of
the- people in the work of a congress
man and it Is to the people's Interests
to use the experience gained by their
public officials rather than give office
to some new and untried man, simply
because he wants It.
The salary of a congressman is
now $7500 per year and the people
oannot afford to "break In" a new
im:n every session for this sum. It rs
too costly and too serious a matter
to be bandied about by office-Itching
politicians. The people want results
and get the best results through ex
perienced men
Place the matter on the plane of
dollars and cents, from a taxpayer'"
standpoint, and why should yu give
$7500 per year to an inexperienced
man who could not get results until
you had given him a course of train
ing at public expense, when you
could keep an experienced man in
the el flee?
I. A FOLLETTE BEATS MACHINE.
Senator La Follette's forces, the
common people of the state of Wis
consin, won a signal victory over the
Spooner machine in that state this
week and the Wisconsin delegation
to the republican national conven
tion will vote for La Follette for pres
ident. La Follette's strength Utt with the
people and he has never deceived
them. From the time he was a
struggling young school teacher until
the day he walked triumphantly Into
the United States senate, he had been
a friend Of the people and had won
his victories through their faith and
confidence in him.
The progress yet to be made by the
Wisconsin senator will come through
the people. He will be called to the
presldene. perhaps not this year, hut
ir time, and he will be found on the
side of right and honor and national
Integrity in that position -as in every
other.
The evils of the cheap rates to the
Pacific coast were never more em
phatically Illustrated than in the
coming of such old mossback -word
mongers as The Dalles Optimist man
to Oregon on a colonist ticket. Any
thing can ride on the cheap ticket,
to the misfortune of the west. The
East Oregonlan Is against cheap rates
unless the railroads guarantee the
character and capacity of the "colo
nists." It Is a shame to bunco a
date, hv rlnmnlne anything In the
shape of a man upon its soil, regard
less of the common decelcles.
The Pendleton Tribune says thit
the editor of the East Oregonlan If
not fit for editorial work for 30 lays
aftrr writing a poem, ana uwi m
writes a poem every 30 days. The ed
itor of the East Oregonlan writes a
poem almost as often as T. T. Gee:
would take a bribe, if he had a
chance. What a man follows Is Just
a matter of taHte, you know.

The hides of a herd of 225 steers
were required to furnish the material
from which the big endless belt was

were used and each of these waVAJ
stretched for weeks to insure perfectly
even strength in all parts of the pro
posed belt. The belt is 111 feet long,
eight fleet wide, and three ply thick.
The weight of the belt Is something
over 2600 pounds.
Not a peg, rivet or fastening of any
kind was used to weld the pieces of
hide together. The best quality of ce

the hides overlap welded by the weight

STOMACH IS
OF
New Theory Advanced by Young Man Is
Spreading Over Entire Country.
L. T. Cooper's theory concerning the
human stomach, which be claims to
prove with hit new medicine, is being
given more respect and comment every
day.
Cooper claims that 90 per cent, of
all ill health Is due to stomach trouble.
When Interviewed about his theory re
cently, he said: "Stomach trouble is
the great curse of the 20th century
so far as the civilised races are con
cerned. Practically all of the chronic
ill health of this generation Is caused
by abnormal stomachic conditions. In
earlier days, when the human race wus
closer to nature, and men and women
worked all day out of doors, digging
their frugal existence from the soil,
the tired, droopy, half-sick people that
are now so common, did not exist.
"To be sure, there was sickness in
those days, but It was of a virulent
character, and only temporary. There
was none of this half-sick condition
11 the time with which so many are
afflicted nowadays.
"I know positively that every bit of
this chronic ill health is caused by
stomach trouble. The human stomach
In civilized people today Is degenerate.
It lacks tone and strength. This weak
ness has gradually come through a
sedentary existence. I furtner know
that few people can be sick with the
digestive apparatus in perfect Bhape.

cause my New Discovery medicine
tones the stomach up to required
strength in about six weeks' time.
That is why I have had more people
come and thank me wherever I have
gone to Introduce my medicine, than I
have had time to talk with."
Among the immense numbers of peo
ple who are now strong believers in
Cooper's theory and medicine is Mrs.
M. K. Dalano, a prominent resident of
the suburb of Brookllne, Boston, Mass.
She says: "For several years I was
broken In health, caused primarily by
stomach and nerve troubles. I gradu
ally became worse, until recently I was
compelled to go without solid food for
days at a time. I had sour stomach,
palpitation of the nerves of stomach
and heart, dyspepsia, and extreme ner
vousness, I suffered terribly with in
somnia, and my liver, bowels and
whole system gradually became de
ranged. I felt instant relief the first
day I began this Cooper medicine.
I now feel like a new being. Today
I walked all over town, shopping
something I have not done for years.
"I make this statement wholly from
a sense of duty. I feel I owe it to
anyone who might find relief and
renewed happiness as I have done."
The record made by the Cooper med
icines Is astonishing. We will take
pleasure In discussing it with anyone
who wishes to know about tiieL .
