THE KNOWER within me di-
reots all my thoughts aright,

my whole body Is obedient to
my will; it renders me glad ser-

When I work in this spirit I
ally myself with all the sources
of health, with all the streams
and currents of noble and pure
ideas. I rise without painful
etfort Into serene altitudes of
truth. I ACCOMPLISH that for
which I was sent Into the world.
To this end I will commit my
thoughts unto the Lord, knowing
that my work shall be establish-
ed. Neither seed-time nor har-
vest shall fall me; for though
there be diversities of labor, yet
it is the same God which work-
eth ALL IX ALL.
"My Father worketh hitherto,
and I work." And so, patiently
working day after day, in due
time I shall "finish the work"
which has been given me to do,
and be ready for the "greater
works" which are even now
preparing for me. Florence'

FOR A CURRENCY COMMISSION
It Is now apparent that congress
will do nothing this season toward
remedial currency legislation, and the
inaction of that august body on this
particular question is, as a whole
gratifying to the country at large, for
the general opinion seems to be
"Nothing rather thuii the Aldrich or
Vreoland bill," says the Spokane
Chronicle.
Congress is admittedly not an au
thority on financial lore, and taken
aa a body, its understanding of cur
rency problems Is probbaly not clear,
It is well, therefore, that the members,
lit spite of the lashings of the party
whip, have listened tii the requests of
bankers and merchants, and taken no
hasty action.
But when congress next convenes it
will be little If any more qualified to
pass wise currency legislation. Why
not, then, appoint a commission to In
vestlgate thoroughly our present fi
nancial system a commission which
could place an Intelligent and intelli
gible report before congress at Its
next session?
Mr. Fowler, himself the father of a
currency bill, favors the appointment
of a commission consisting of mem
bers of the senate, of house members,
of merchants, bankers and business
men from the east, the west, and from
the Mississippi valley. Has any one
better plan to suggest?
A VIEW OF PEN DLETON.
THE NEW WOOL CENTER.
"With the construction of the Im
mense wool storage warehouses at
Omaha for the accommodation of the
woolgrowers of the west, startling
possibilities which promise to make
Omaha the great central wool market
and manufacturing city of the world,
come into view.
With all the wool of the 16 wool
growing states and territories of the
Pacific coast pouring Into Omaha's
immense warehouses and with scour
ing and baling plants there, that city
will take on world-importance in the
wool trade.
With cheap power and magnificent
transportation facilities Omaha is
prepared to compete with New Eng
land as a wool manufacturing cen
ter and being close to the western
ranges she would save freight rates
half way across the continent.
.So Omaha is now taking on Import
ance as a wool center. Millions of
pounds will be sent there this season
from Montana, Utah, Wyoming and
other western states to be marketed I
from the central warehouses and as
the market features become import
ant, manufacturing will follow and
the wool center of he United .States
will perhaps be moved from New Eng
land to the west.
BETTER INDIANS.
The Umatilla Indians are paying up
their bills and accounts better this
spring than ever before. .Since they
have been drawing their present pay
ment of 950,000 during the past week,
practically all of their bills have been
paid off and their obligations dis
ch.nt'd. Many old bills which had
been standing for years and which
had been neglected through several
payments of funds, have been prompt
ly paid with this money and the tribe
is In better condition today than ever
before.
This improving condition of the In
dian Is largely due to the splendid in
fluence and example of Agent Arthur
E. McFatridge, who has given his best
efforts to the management of the res
ervation affairs and to the upbuilding
of the tribe.
The Indians respect Agent McFat
ridge and his Influence with them Is
perhaps greater than that of any of
the recent agents. He advises with
the Indians , tells them to be honest
and square and to his constant moral
teaching is due a large part of the Im
proving condition of the Umatlllas.
Under his good influence, It will
not require many years to elevate the
Indians to the plane of citizenship.
Perhaps one-fifth of the Umatilla
tribe is today ready for Independent
citizenship. With good training in
and out of school, with a good exam
ple set before them, with square deal
ing and high Ideals, It will be but a
few years until practically all of the
tribe will be out of savagry, out of
The Walla Walla Statesman pub
lishes a caustic editorial on the sub
ject of boosting In Pendleton and as
the editorial- Is typical of a number
which have appeared in Inland empire
papers since last Monday night, on
the" same subject, the East Oregonlan
takes the liberty of reprinting It to
show what other towns think of our
publicity efforts. The Statesman says:
Pendleton, the third largest city In
Oregon, Is a good town in a great
many respects, but unfortunately for
the commercial interests of the city,
she now occupies a position similar to
that of Walla Walla some eight or 10
years ago, when the town was afflict
ed with so many mossbacks that it
was almost Impossible to take up and
successfully promote any enterprise
looking to the advancement of thu
city and the territory contiguous.
Pendleton was jlven a demonstra
tlon of mossbackism Monday even
ing, at a so-called "Booster" meeting,
at which It was proposed to raise
among wealthy property owners and
merchants, a sufficient sum to main
tain a publicity bureau by which the
resources of Pendleton and Umatilla
county were to be advertised to the
world.
As far as raising funds was concern
ed the meeting was a decided frost,
but $65 per month being subscribed
and then only after President Tom
Richardson of the Portland Commer
cial club, who was present, had made
few caustic remarks about the Pen
dleton spirit.
Even this prodding failed to move
the property owners and the scheme
to establish a publicity bureau wllf
probably fall flat.
Pendleton property owners will soon
see the fallacy of retarding any public-spirited
movement to advance their
community and In fact It was point
ed out at the meeting Monday night by
one man present, who predicted that it
would not be long before Pendleton
would be a suburb of Walla Walla.
This Is somewhat stretching the mat
ter,, but the fact remains that Walla
Walla Is commercially annexing
large slice of. Umatilla county and the
territory is being rapidly extended.
Milton and Freewater might be said
to be a part of Walla Walla, so closely
allied are the Interests of the three
towns, both commercially and socially.
The few miles separating the Oregon
towns from Walla Walla are being so
rapidly built up that even, now It Is
almost one continuous town from this
city to Freewater.
People of Milton and Freewater ere
almost as much at home In Walla
Walla as they are in their own towns
and this condition will prevail In Wes
ton and Athena with the extension of
the interurban to those cities.
Pendleton may well view with
alarm the rapid growth that Walla
Walla is making, due almost entirely
to the public splritedness of her cit
izens. If Pendleton Is to go ahead In
stead of degenerating into a lifeless
Inland town, her citizens will have to
display a more generous spirit than
they did at the meeting Monday night.

A SONG OF RK.UTV.
I'm
the
Oh, sing me a song of beauty;
tired of the stressful song,
I'm weary of all the preaching,
arguing right and wrong.
I'm fain to forgot the adder that undo
the leaf lies curled,
And dream of the light and - beauty
that gladdens the gray old
world!
Oh, sing of the emerald meadows that
smile all day In the sun!
The ripple and gleam or the rivers
that on through the meadow
run!
Oh,' sing of the singing branches
trees In the leafy woods,
the balm for the heart that"
hidden afar in the solitudes!
And
The birds let them sing In you
singing and flash through th
lines you write,
The lark with his list In the morning,
the nightingale charming the
n,lght.
The butterfly over the flowers that
hovers on painted wing
All these, let them brighten and
lighten the beautiful song you
sing!
And let there be face of lovers, and
let there be eyes that glow.
And let there be tears of gladness In
stead of the tears of woe.
And let there be clinging kisses of Hps'
for a time that part,
But never a tristful shadow to darken
a trustful heart!
Ay, sing me a song of beauty away
with the songs of strife!
Away with the spectre of sorrow that
saddens he most of life!
Though under the leaf the adder of
death and of doom lies curled,
Oh, sing, for a space of the beauty
that gladdens the gray old
world!

HARPER'S FERRY RESORT.
From historic and scenic stand
points this little village of Harper's
Ferry Is of unusual Interest, says the
Book of the Royal Blue. While the
town Itself Is located in West Virgin
la. It is in close proximity to the state
of Maryland and Virginia, being sep
arated from the former by the Poto
mac river and from the latter by the
Shenandoah river. It is built upon a
hill known as "Bolivar Heights," and
la overshadowed by mountains known
as "London Heights" in Virginia, and
Maryland Heights" in Maryland.
Harper's Ferry Is a popular sum
mer resort, being located on the main
line of he Baltimore & Ohio railroad
and Is reached within an hour and
thirty minutes from Washington and
about two hours from Baltimore. All
through trains east and west stop
here. t
The hotels and cottages are well
equipped and are so situated as to
command unobstructed views of the
rivers and country for miles around.
Of the historic interests centered In
and about this quaint village that in
connection with the famous John
Brown's raid Is probably the most re
nowned. The site of the old fort Is
marked only by the marker erected
by the Baltimore & Ohio railroad,
and the old Iron tablets placed by the
government tell of Interesting achieve
ments during the civil war.
Jefferson's Rock, and the old
churches and houses built In the hill
sides, are still intact and are the cen
ters of attraction to the newcomers.
Farther up the Shenandoah river, on
the Virginia side, John Brown's fort
stands In a lonely field, where it was
rebuilt on Its return from the Chi
eaco world's fair.
The Valley branch of the Baltl-.
more & Ohio railroad extends from
Harper's Ferry up the beautiful
Shenandoah valley, wherein are lo
cated many famous health and pleas
ure resorts, It was In this valley that
some of the bloodiest encounters of
the civil war took place.

Termit not the Herod of author
Ity to kill the children of the brain."
Ingersoll.
JJe.-us certainly was a freethinker.
When the sticklers for propriety fuss
ed over the literal Interpretation of
Sunday laws, he dismissed the whole
controversy with the bold declaration
that "the Sabbath was made for man,
not man for the Sabbath."
When the Jews boasted of the fact
that they were Abraham's offspring,
Christ asserted that God "could raise
His children from stones." He scoff
ed at the wisdom of the learned
Pharisees and exalted the Innate'ln-
tuition of the "little child." He de
throned the national God of the He
brews with His provincial follies and
caprices and voiced Inter-occanlc re
ligion by prefacing his prayer with
'our Father."
Christ was the broadest thinker the
worldThas ever known. Nothing
could Intimidate him when truth was
at stake. In one hand he held the
sword to fight the dealers In shams
in the other the torch to Illuminate
the night. Brute force at last
crushed this martyr of heaven. But
even dying he prayed for bis Ignor
ant persecutors and considered It a
privilege to be crucified by a world
which afterwards had to be civilized
by his thoughts. Andreas Bard.
