KEEP MONEY AT HOME.
Do you have any Idea how much
Pendleton money has been Invested
outside of this city and county, in
Alberta, Texas, Portland, Spokane,
Seattle, St, Johns and other points,
In the past three years?
Stop and count on your fingers the
bank accounts which hare been re
duced in these outside Investments,
and you will be surprised that
Pendleton has done as well as she has
under the circumstances.
If all this money had been Invest
ed In new enterprises which would
employ labor in this city, Pendleton
would now be twice as large and rich
&3 she is. But people who have made
fortunes here have Invested else.
where, thus sapping the strength of
the city and building up other places
at Pendleton's expense.
Talk about Harriman "milking"
Oregon to get funds for Investment
in eastern roads. Pendleton has been
"Milked" to a great extent and is still
the best town in the state outside of
Portland. If she had all the money
she has made for capitalists she would
be a city of 15.000 population em
ploying several thousand laborers
-with enormous payrolls.
PENDLETON'S CHAMPION.
The East Oregonian takes special
pride In mentioning the record made
by Ora Jay, the star athlete of the
Pendleton high school team who twice
in succession has wrested the indl
v'dual championship in the Whitman
interacholastlc field meet from the
biggest schools In the northwest and
who has more trophies than any other
individual high school athlete in the.
northwest.
Jay Is a Pendleton boy, having
been reared from babyhood In this
city. His training has been received
in Pendleton, his victories have been
won for Pendleton and Pendleton is
proud of him.
With excellent support from other
members of the Pendleton high school
Uam, Jay has been Instrumental in
placing this city' at the very head of
the list in the athletic column and
while yet a boy, gives promise of
.making more than a state-wide rep
utation and field athlete.
And while Jay and the other mem
bers of the team have developed in
athletics, they have not neglected the
literary phases of their education.
The boys are as strong in mental de
velopment as in physical and make a
fine appearance anywhere, in any
performance.
and mailed In Umatilla county, rather
than by some foreign concern In Port
land or San Franotsco.
The lists of names of "anxious in
qulrers" sent out weekly by the Port
land Commercial club could be used
for the distribution of the printed
matter and In this way the advertls
Ing could be placed directly In the
hands of the people who have Inqulr
ed about Oregon and who will come
here upon a proper presentation of
the fact.
This paid booster or secretary could
spend his time la collecting attrac
tlve statistics, writing letters and an.
fwcring Inquiries and in mailing out
l-rinted matter. lie could reach the
actual homeseekers and by personal
solicitation and direct arguments
could succeed In bringing many ex
cellent citizens to the county.
This would be a much better plan
than to pay some magazine all the
advertising fund for an advertise
ment and write up which would reach
but a limited number of people, many
of whom would not be interested in
the advertisement.
With unlimited resources to draw
upon for descriptive and statistical
matter and with this list of anxious
inquirers in the east to send the
printed matter to, there is no reason
why a first-class active secretary,
giving all his time to the work,
should not fill up the vacant places
In this county with enterprising peo
ple in a couple of years.
Advertising Is a business and must
be conducted on business principles.
UNFAIR TO CAKE.
The Oregon Dally Journal, which
boasts of being a fair and high-class
Journal, Is beginning a crusade of
misrepresentation against H. M. Cake,
republican candidate for the United
States senate.
The Journal prints something
every day about the alleged dlsrup
tion of Mr. Cake's forces, the revolt
of the Fulton people from the Cake
camp, the alleged weakening of Mr.
Cake on statement No. 1, and other
absolutely unfounded matters in Mr.
Cake's campaign.
In view of the fact that Mr. Cake
has made a clean, fair and honest
campaign .standing upon principle
entirely and leaving mud slinging and
partisan prejudice and bitterness out
of the game, the action of the Jour
nal is surprising.'
Mr. Cake deserves fair treatment at
the hands of the Journal, although
he may be a republican. He has won
a creditable fight before the people
of Oregon and the Journal is not
making any votes for Governor
Chamberlain by printing false state
ments concerning Mr. Cake.
There is no sign anywhere in Ore
gon that the Fulton people are going
to assist in the election of Governor
Chamberlain who went out of his
way to engage with Heney In the fight
on'Senator Fulton.
Mr. Cake has not. wavered In his
advocacy of statement No. 1, and he
will not waver. He made the fight
on that principle and won one of the
nost noteworthy victories in the po-
itlcal history of the state, defeating
one of the very strongest men In his
party In the senatorial race.
Mr. Cake Is a strong, forcible, hon
est. clean candidate, a first-class
citizen. public-spirited, active, alert
and high-minded, and will be an hon
or to Oregon in the United States
senate. And being a republican, will
be in position to take an active part
the affairs of government, Instead
of being an obstructionist and an ob
cctor to every move made for the ex
cutlon of the Roosevelt policies.
gates doea not admit a doubt. This
also will be well, for Bryan certainly
is the best representative of the dem
ocrats of Oregon, as to the west in
general.
Yet he cannot get the electoral
votes of New York, New Jersey and
Connecticut unless he cn make
good through" gains in the groat mid
dle west. This, however, need not be
deemed an Impossibility. The great
city of Chicago Is a mighty force In
Presidential elections, and an uncer
tain one.
GRASS.
The
rose Is praised for Its beaming
face,
The lily for saintly whiteness;
We love this bloom for Its languid
grace,
And that for Its airy lightness.
a
We say of the oak, "How grand of
girth!"
Of the willow we eay, "How slen
der!" And yet to the soft grass, clothing
earth,
How slight is the praise we render.
But the grass knows well In her secret
heart
How we love her cool, green rai
ment; So she plays in silence her lonely part,
And cares not at all for payment.
Each year her buttercups nod and
drowse,
With sun and dew brimming over;
Each year she pleases the greedy cow
With oceans of honeyed clover.
Each year on the earth's wide breast
she waves
From spring until stern November;
And then she remembers so many
graves
That no one else will remember.
And while she serves us with gladness
mute
In return for such sweet dealings,
We tread her carelessly under foot.
Yet we never wound her feelings.
Edgar Fawcett.
HOW TO SPEND THE MONEY.
If the real estate men and proper
ty owners of Umatilla county decide
to raise an advertising fund, care
should be exercised in spending it to
get most satisfactory returns.
It seems that the logical way to ad
vertise Pendleton and Umatilla coun
ty would be to raise a sufficient fund
to employ a first-class booster for a
year, and give him a printing fund
with which to print and mall, from
Pendleton, all kinds of leaflet, pho
tographs, folders, pamphlets and
other borne printed matter descriptive
or the city and county.
Am the money is to be raised in
Pendleton and Umatilla county the
advertising matter should be printed
TAFT AND BRYAN.
The Sunday Oregonian publishes
the following comprehensive editorial
on the presidential situation as that
paper sees it:
That Taft and Bryan will be the
candidates of their respective parties
Is now as certain as any forecast ever
can be. Next best representative oi
the tendencies and purposes of the
Roosevelt administration next best
to Roosevelt himself Is Taft; though
it is not doubted that Hughes would
be a strong man devoted in the main
to the Bame purposes, and perhaps
lr. many localities more, acceptable
than Taft. We believe Hughes would
be surer to win In Ohio and Illinois
than Taft, and quite as sure to win
In New York.
But Taft, manifestly, is gathering
up the strength for the convention.
In the Pacific states he will be ex
ceptionally strong, because of his
comprehensive knowledge of our com
mercial and naval needs in the Pa
cific. This particular subject is to be the
controllng and compelling one in
those national and international af
fairs that have relation to American
Irterests centering in and upon the
Pacific ocean.
Hence it la that Oregon probably
will deem it best to send to the re
publican convention delegate earnest
In support of Mr. Taft. That Mr.
Eryan will have the democratic dele-
THE FLOWER MOST PREFERRED
First on the list I would name the
peony, says Eben E. Rexford In Out
ing. This flower is simply magnifi
cent in color and form; it blooms early
and with wonderful profusion when
well cared for and has the unusual
merit of Improving with age.
The older a plant gets the larger
It grows to be and the more flowers
It will give. I know plants that were
set out 50 years ago. Some of them
are six feet across. On one of them
counted more than 200 expanded
flowers last season,- and buds In all
stages of development gave promise
of flowers for a month to come.
Every garden ought to Include a
collection of the best varieties of this
grand plant Its colors range from
pure white to palest rose, carmine
dark crimson and dull, rich reds. To
grow it well give It a rather heavy
soil, made very rich with old, well
rotted cow manure if posible set the
tubers at least four Inches below the
surface and after that disturb them
as little as possible.
ino piant or wnicn i nave any
knowledge is so impatient over Inter
ference with its roots. Disturb them
slightly this season and you will not
be likely to get any flowers next sea
son. The peony is entirely hardy any
where In the north.
ALL THE WORLD IN DELAWARE.
Eleven New York blocks have
density of 1200 per acre, which means
that If the whole of little Delaware
were similarly crowded, it could con
tain the entire population of the
world, white, black, yellow and red.
Of course such congestion Induce
bestial crowding In single rooms. The
results of a special Investigation of
the family crowding In the Italian
quarters were shown by statistics,
photographs and diagrams.
ji ine ramines examined, 18 per
cent occupied one room, 34.4 per cent
occupied only two rooms, showing a
condition much worse than the aver
age on the east side, where a family
consists of seven persons llvlnir In
three rooms, three members being at
home, two at school and two at work.
Among these Italians less than
three out of every 100 families had
five rooms, and yet, as If one and two
rooms for a family were overabund
ant, about one-third of the fnmiiipa
had one lodger, 41 per cent two lodg
ers, 16.5 per cent three Imlirora nnri
3.1 per cent four todgers. Thus,
vomiting iwo cnuuren under 12 as
equivalent to one adult, one-sixth of
tne rooms In these Italian nnnrfor
were found to be housing as many as
four adults each. Charities and

WHAT JOAQUIN MILLER LIKED.
Joaquin Miller, the- poet of the
Sierras, Is something of a recluse and
rarely comes Into San Francisco, but
when he does he Is made a ood deal
of a lion. On his last visit he was
one of the guests at a rather formal
dinner at a friend's house, where he
stayed over night. His hostess had
known the poet since her childhood
so she felt privileged next morning to
discourse to him of the beauties of
the Parisian gown she had worn the
night before beauties which seemed
to have escaped his observation.
Mr. Miller listened to ail that she
had to say and remained silent.
But didn't you really like the
dress?" pleaded the lady.
"Well," replied the poet, "I did like
part of it well enough."
The lady brightened.
"Indeed?" she said. "What part?"
"The part you had on." answered
the poet, and that ended the discus
sion. Llpplncott'a.

A SAFE AID) RELIABLE DLOOD PUIUFIEH
In the time of our forefathers the forest and fields were the only labor
atories from which they could procure their medicines. They starched out
and compounded the different roots, herbs and barks into remedies, many oi
which have been handed down to succeeding generations, and continuously
used with satisfactory results. Among the very best of these old time prep
arations is S. S. S., a medicine made entirely from roots, herbs and barks,
in such combination as to make it the greatest of all blood purifiers. This
absolute vegetable purity of S. S. S. makes it the one medicine that may be
nsed without fear I harmful results in any way. Most Mood medicines on
the market contain mercury, potash, or some other strong mineral. These
act with bad effect on the system, npsettinr the stomach, interfering with
the digestion, affecting the bowels, and when used for a prolonged period of
time often cause salivation. No such effects ever result from the use of
S. S. S., and it may be taken by children as safely as by older people. For
Rheumatism, Catarrh, Sores and Ulcers, Malaria, Scrofula, Skin Diseases,
and all other troubles caused bv impure or poisoned blood. 8. 8. 8. Is a per
.feet remedy. It goes down into the circulation and removes all poisons,
Impurities, humors or unhealthy matter, and makes the blood pure and rich.
It eliminates every particle of the taint of inherited blood trouble, purifies and
strengthens the weak, deteriorated blood, and establishes the foundation
for good health. S. S. S. is Nature's Blood Purifier, and its many years of
successful service, with a steadily increasing demand for It, Is the best evi
dence of its value in all blood troubles. Book on the blood and any medical

nOW TO HELP OUR FRIENDS.
We often attempt to regulate the'
lives of our friends through Imposing
our own wills upon tnem. xnn we
do under the Impression that our con
ception of Truth Is superior to theirs
and that we see more clearly than
they do. This Is really but a form
of selfishness, and binds all who In
dulge In it, both the strong and the
week.
Of course there is a point where a
kind and friendly desire to help an
other may be productive of good. But
when the desire to help another In
volves the subjugation of his , spirit
and understanding, then that desire
becomes a selfish one. For you
cannot force a knowledge . of the
truth upon anyone. Only love and
patience and living the truth yourself
can bring It to the consciousness of
your friends, William . Towne In

To Pay Firemen.
The city of Centraila is to have a

Prof. A. L. Melander, entomologist

summer 'on Orcas Island Investigating

appeared there.
Every woman covets a
shapely, pretty figure, and
many of them deplore the
loss of their girlish forms
after marriage. The bearing
of children is often destructive
to the mother's shapeliness.
All of this can be avoided.
