Don"t let us clamor for redress;
Don't let us deem a soul our
foe:
Instead of cursing, let us bless;
And never let us gloat or
crow
O'er some one's trouble; let
us show
What perfect peace our view
point brings
To all who after goodness
go;
Let's think and talk of pleasant
things!

as an Industrial process. You must
convert people to the Irrigation creed.
They lack faith In the forbidding
desert land. They look over the
sagebrush wastes and pass on .think
ing that such a wilderness holds noth
ing for them.
The first two or" three sets of set
tlers In an Irrigated district-usually
lose heart and move away after doing
doing some work on the land. They
give up the fight with the desert. The
third man comes along and finds the
way paved for a fortune and gets
credit for success.
It requires nerve to begin the con
test with the desert. But the reward
for the man who wins Is so great that
the struggle Is overshadowed.
SENATOR IN 1812.
Let's talk of trouble less and
. less;
To anger let us be more slow;
Let's strive more patience to
possess.
And more compassionate let's
grow;
A cheerful word or smile be
stow. And you can quell the scorn that
stings;
This duty to ourselves we
owe:
Let's think and tilk of pleasant
things!
Harold Susman.
FOR AN ASTER SHOW.
The Oregon Daily Journal says that
Senator C. W. Fulton will succeed
Jonathan Bourne In the election of
United States senator In 1912.
Not unless he changes his position
on the popular election of senators,
brother. The republicans of Oregon
have taken advanced ground on this
subject and they will not recede. No
matter how able or vigorous or skill
ful a candidate may be hereafter, he
must have the popular election of
United States senators at heart before
the people will elect him. '
The contest In the primary election
Just past proved conclusively that the
republican' party of Oregon Is abso
lutely committed to the popular elec
tion of senators. Senator Fulton was
I stronger this spring with the people
than he can ever hope to be again,
and he was deefated at the polls by a
decisive vote. He will be snowed
under deeper than ever' In 1912 un
less he comes out openly and fearless
ly for the statement No. 1 pledge and
the popular election of senators.
No senator opposed to the popular
election of senators will ever be elect
ed In Oregon again. The elimination
of. the senatorial deadlocks and the
simple process of ratifying the peo
ple's choice for senator by the legis
lature have given the taxpayers a
taste of the popular election of United
States senators and It is a safe pre
diction to make, to say that no sena
torial fight will ever engage the leg-lslature-of
the state of Oregon again.
LOVE.
Only through love, my soul, canst
thou arise
And touch afar God's white-robed
mysteries,
In which vast tlmclessnesg thy some
thing floats
Like God's aloneness with God's lone
soul motes.
Only through love, my soul, ennst
thou behold
That which no mortal language yet
hath told,
The holy vision of the truth divine,
Of the eternal spiritual design.
Only through love, my soul, canst thou
reach forth
And from life's harvest garner great
est worth.
The widest, truth, the wise unselfish
ness
That hovers near 'the Infinite's caress
Only through love, my soul, that
breath of God,
Art thou Immortally, divinely shod.
Caroline Renfrew.
THE BRAVEST MAX.
One of the most pleasant and unique
features which could be introduced
into the district fair program next fall
would be an aster day or aster carnl
val. Let the fair management offer
prizes of asters and let them set aside
a day for the tster carnival and then
let every home owner In the city
. plant for that day.
It can be made a beautiful feature
with but little work. Asters will grow
profusely everywhere with but little
care or cultivation and they make a
delightful dream of color when mass
ed together or hung in decoration
about a room.
Such features as this must be added
to make the fair attractive. People
tire of the monotonous display of
fruits and vegetables no matter how
creditable. There must be some di
version, something out of the ordinary
tc fix the memory of the fair In peo
pie's minds.
"The fair Is rapidly attaining to per
fection with each succeeding year and
it seems that the management is do
ing everything possible to Induce peo
ple to contribute to it and take part
In it.
But the esthetic side of the human
animal must be cultivated as well as
the prosaic, practical side. Aster
shows, palm gardens, music, art the
idealistic and poetical must be ex
hibited and encouraged as well as the
wheat exhibit, the poultry display, the
horses, jacks, goats and hogs.
PENDLETON SCHOOL SPIRIT.
James Creelman, the well-known
war correspondent, who Is on record
over his own signature as having pro
voked the war between the United
States and Spain, gives this descrip
tion of the bravest man he ever saw:
"It was during the siege of Port
Arthur," says Mr. Creelman. "On
the edge of one of the parapets, his
feet hanging over the edge, sat a man
making a sketch of the scene. From
the Japanese ships In the offing there
came a continuous stream of scream
ing, death-delivering shells. But the
man sketched on unmoved. Mauser
bullets, with their peculiar snake-like
hiss, flew over and beside him. In
all this noise and Imminent death the
man contlued his work, completely
absorbed In It.
"Finally there came from within the
fortification a Russian officer of gi
gantic size. He stood long beside the
man who was drawing and watched
the pencil carefully filling in the
graphic lines. The .shells from the
ships when they struck the masonry
stirred up a cloud of mortar dust, am!
as they exploded threw chunks of
broken stone In every direction. The
officer's uniform was covered with the
mortar dust, and his fatigue cap had
been knocked awry by a Mauser bul
let. I have never seen a braver man.
At last he said. In excellent English
and speaking with an aristocratic
drawl, "I say, Creelman, aren't you
ever going to finish that sketch?'"
James S. Metcalf, In Success Magazine.
THE MARVEL OF THE DESERT.
An old pioneer" who settled In
Umatilla county 35 years ago and
after a residence of a few years went
to California" to reside, came back this
spring to look over the scene of his
early labors here.
He could scarcely believe that the
sagebrush land which he despised at
that time and which was worth less
than nothing 13 now selling at from
1100 to -4300 per acre and Is In de
mand at those prices.
He could scarcely believe that
where once he rode after stock on a
comparatively wilderness In the west
end of Umatilla county are now to
be found orchards, alfalfa fields, gar
dens, berry patches, all producing
abundantly.
Yet this transformation has taken
place. The desert has been convert-
. ed Into productive land. More of the
; same kind of desert Is yet to be
brought under cultivation. There is
not a foot of land In the west end of
the county which cannot be made pro
ductlve, even above the irrigating
ditches, by proper methods of farm-
. lng.
The marvel of the desert has not
- yet begun. It takes time to change
the face of the wilderness, especially
where people are prejudiced against
the wilderness and doubt the ability
.of the desert to produce crops.
. Irrigation Is an educational aa well
The uniformly high standing which
the boys of the Pendleton high school
teams achieved in the different school
events In the inland empire, Is one of
the highest tributes that can be paid
to the excellent school spirit of the
city.
The high school Is In better working
order today than It has ever been be
fore, without disparaging the efforts
of those instructors who have been
here before. The school is larger,
Letter organized, more ' active and
alert and has a better school spirit in
every way.
This Increased efficiency is due to
the splendid guidance of City Super
intendent Landers, Principal Hamp
ton and the high school Instructors.
There Is a fine co-operation through
out tho srhool anrl thp Ufa nnil vim
Injected, Into the high school classes
by Principal Hampton, who Is in
closer touch with these classes than
any other, are assets which are be

THE UMATILLA PIONEERS.
The East Oregonian today publishes
the official invitation of President S.
M. Barnes of the Umatilla County
Pioneers' association to attend the re
union and picnic to be held at Weston
on May 28, 29 and 30.
The roll Is thinning year by year
and each season finds vacant places
In the household of this noble associ
ation. The people of Umatilla coun
ty are urged to attend this picnic and
reunion and enjoy the hospitality of
Weston. Elaborate preparations are
to be made for the occasion and each
succeeding picnic Is pleasanter than
the preceding.
Weston Is noted for her ability to
entertain her friends and this year is
making special efforts to make this
reunion pleasant and entertaining.
Weston Is the center of one of the
oldest settlements In Umatilla county
and around the town clusters histori
cal facts which enrich the records of
the county and state. Let us Join with
Weston In celebrating this event.
ALASKA'S NEW SALOON LAW.
A Washington Dispatch says of the
propoed new saloon law for Alaska:
The house committee on territor
ies today made a report on a bill to
regulate liquor licenses In Alaska. It
is the purpose of the bill to break
up what Is known as "perambulating
saloons" In that territory. Hereto
fore, the retail licenses have been of
a graduated character, ranging from
$1500 a year In towns whose popula
tion Is 1500 or over, to $500 In places
whose population is below 500. Un
der the bill reported today a flat re
tail license of $1000 Is provided and
provision Is made that no license shall
be tsued except In an Incorporated
town or In one where there Is a resi
dent commissioner or United States
deputy marshal.
It Is claimed Tt Is claimed by Gov
ernor Hoggatt and others In Alaska
that- under the present law a saloon
keeper can pay a license of $500 and
then move as long as he does not get
Into a town containing over 500 peo
pie. This system enables him to fol
low construction camps and other
small bodies of men, and It Is claim
ed that this practice has proved In
jurious. In the new bill the whole
sale license remains at $2000, i4 un
der the present law.
With all the Irrigation projects of
Umatilla county now on the market,
offering rich lands at moderate prices,
there Is no reason for any young man
of this county or eastern Oregon be
ing without a tract of land. The time
Is coming when every foot of Irrigat
ed land now offered for sale In this
county will be worth from three to
five times Its present cost There li
no other section of the west which
offers such opportunities as the ir
rigated belt surrounding Pendleton,
and there Is no need to go away from
here for Investment.

Found Den of Ratlers.
J. W. anl T. M. Doak, who were
In town from the I.orane country
Monday, tell a pretty large rattle
snake story, but Its truth Is vouched
for by well-known residents of the
vicinity, says the Eugene Guard. They
say that 47. rattlers, mostly good slz
ed ones, have been killed In a den
discovered on the Jerry Pipes place
recently. The killing occurred on sev
eral different days when the weather
was warm and bright and the snakes
came out of their den to take a sun
bath. On Sunday last, 14 were kill
ed. Up to the time this den was lo
cated and watched no one In the vi
cinity had any Idea that there were
any rattlesnakes to speak of In the
neighborhood' and the large number
killed to date has occasioned much
surprise. The skins, rattles and oil
of the snakes are taken care of and
preserved for various uses.
There Is now prevailing In Kobe,
the Japanese Times says, "a peculiar
kind of cold which is popularly term
ed 'borel kaze' (literally, departed
souls' cold). This cold Is so designat
ed because it Is superstltiously cred
ited as being a curse sent by the de
parted souls of the soldiers who were
killed In the war and who, perhaps,
seeing that the post-bellum manage
ment of affairs by the people Is so
bad as to neutralize all the good ef
fects of the blood they shed In the
war, are now trying to awake the peo
ple to a sense of their duty and re
sponsibility by Inflicting on them the
disagreeable Illness."

BY IMPURITIES IN THE BLOOD
If Old Sores were due to outside influences, or if the cause was confined
trictly to the diseased flesh around the ulcer, then external treatment tnjl
simple cleanliness would cure them. But the trouble is in tue uioou, wu tu
has become unhealthy and diseased, and keeps the sore open by continually
discharging into it the impurities and poisons with which the circulation is
filled. This poisonous condition of the blood may be the remains of some
constitutional trouble; the effect of a long spell of sickness, or because the
natural refuse of the body, which should pass off through the proper avenues,
has been left in the system and absorbed into the blood. Again, the cause
may be hereditary j but it does not matter how the poison becomes intrenched
In the blood, the fact that the sore will not heal is evidence of a deep underly
ing cause. Salves, washes, lotions, etc., may cause the place to scab over
temporarily, but the blood ia net made any
purer by such treatment, ana soon ine oiu
inflammation and discharge will return and
the sore be as bad or worse than before.
S. S. S. goes down to the very bottom of the
trouble, cleanses and purifies the blood, and
makes a permanent cure. S. S. S. enriches
and freshens the circulation so that instead of
discharging unhealthy matter into the place, it carries rich, tissue-building,
flesh-healing blood to thediseased parts and in every way assists in a natural
cure of the sore. Book on Sores and Ulcers and any medical advice free to

"The reason for this extraordinary

He exists In all parts of the Moro

Saloon and anti-saloon forces are
