It really doesn't matter much
If bank accounts are small;
If we have qunshlne In our
hearts
We're rich enough for all.
It really doesn't matter much
If beauty knows us not;-
If we have tact and Intellect
We'll lead the common lot.
It really doesn't matter much
If we've no shining fame;
If we plug on, and do the square.
We'll get there Just the same.

MR. CAKE'S POSITION.
The Oregon Sunday Journal de
clares that H. M. Cake has forsaken
the statement Xo. 1 principle which
he advocated before the primaries. It
says that he has kicked the statement
Xo. 1 people out of doors.
Here Is what Is the matter with the
Journal: The republicans observed
the primary" law, nominated candi
dates In the primaries and came out
fearlessly and emphatically for the ob
servance of that law and made their
contest under it.
The democrats did not do this. In
almost every county In the state they
evaded the primary law, refusing to
put out candidates before the pri
maries and declining to recognize the
law.
Xow after the republicans have
nominated their candidates in the prl
marles and settled their contests at
that time, the democrats want the
republicans to forsake their own can
dldates and accept democrats placed
In nomination on petition after the
primaries.
Why did not the democrats get out
candidates and observe the primary
law? Why did they not make an ef
fort to get out good men before the
; primaries and not wait to try to dis
rupt the republicans after the pri
maries? The Journal is now "sore" because
Mr. Cake and his followers will not
forsake their party nominees and fol
low these clandestine nominations
made after the primaries. Mr. Cake
and his followers made a fair, open,
clean fight in the primary election for
statement Xo. 1 candidates. In most
of the counties these were nominated
and are being supported by Mr. Cake
as forcibly today as before the pri
maries, and the Journal knows It.
Mr. Cake has not deserted any prin
ciple which he advocated before the
primaries. He is for statement Xo. 1,
but he will not knife his own party to
please the Journal or any other dem
ocrat. He will not be dictated to by
his opponents.
The republicans observed the pri
mary law and nominated their candi
dates at that time. The democrats
should have done the same, If they
respect the advance deglslation which
has been passed by the republican
voters of Oregon. Mr. Cake Is a
republican and Is entitled to every
repubilean vote.
arrangement, understanding or dis
cussion of the subject, every member
of the convention studiously refrained
from the mention of Haywood's name.
f During the entire deliberations the
name of the federation secretary was
not spoken although he Is being folst
td upon the country as presidential
umber, and was perhaps foremost In
the minds of many of the delegates
aurtng. the day.
There Is no other explanation for
the matter, than that by mental con
sent, the members of the convention
maintained silence. Haywood had
brought odium upon the party and
I'matillii county socialists did not Join
in the loud clamor for his acquittal
as did many other localities, and so
without prearrangement or agreement,
but simply through common mental
consent, the would-be martyr was not
mentioned In Pendleton's convention
of socialists. " "
SERMONS IN CARTOONS.
The facile pen of the cartoonist Is
far more powerful than the preacher
or the editor. It carries home a con
viction which It Is Impossible for
words to Impress. It clinches argu
ments more forcibly than any Impas
sioned eloquence ever dare to attempt.
In the Spokesman-Review of Sun
day are two cartoons which are wor
thy of special mention since they are
original with Morris, the Spokane car
toonist. One represents the states of Idaho
and Washington as fair young women
riding in automobiles. Idaho Is ac
companied by two fighting politicians,
who In their vicious struggle are neg
lecting the automobile of the Gem
state and It Is running wildly near the
brink of an abyss, while Idaho Is
ready to leap out to save her life.
Washington Is represented as a fair
young woman seated happily In her
big machine, running smoothly along
a broad, safe highway, labeled "direct
primary law."
She has no fighting politicians to
contend with. She Is not threatened
with disaster by being thrown over the
brink of political corruption. She la
running along safely and contentedly
on a broad highway of popular legislation.
The lessen Is significant. Xo amount
cf sermonizing could carry the weight
of this cartoon.
The other cartoon is that of an old
farmer, representing Joe Cannon,
speaker of the house, with his wagon
standing squarely across the railroad
track, his horse unhitched and eating
out of the rear of the wagon, the
driver snoozing contentedly on the
seat, with a long cigar In his mouth
ard half asleep.
A train loaded with frantic people,
labeled "the public," has come to a
halt where the wagon is standing on
the track, but all the shouting and
noise of the public falls to awaken
the snoozing old farmer, Joe Cannon,
and the progiess of the train is im
peded while his old horse, "congress."
has his nose in the hay.
MENTAL SUGGESTION, OR WHAT?
An Incident of mental suggestion,
telepahthy or thought force was re-cf-ntly
recorded In this city which Is
worthy of more than passing notice.
Since these forces are coming to be
recognized In human affairs no Illus
tration is too remote to pass unno
ticed. Thirty or 35 members of the social
ist party of Umatilla county recently
met In county convention In this city
and adopted a platform, named coun
ty candidates and transacted routine
business Incident to a county conven
tion. As it was' the .'first meeting of the
aoclaltsts after the acquittal of Hay
wood at Boise, it would naturally be
supposed that Haywood would have
fown mentioned many time during
ihe convention. But without any pre,.
THE BOOSTER MOVEMENT.
Pendleton has received much favor
able advertising from the meeting and
organization of her real estate men
All of the northwest papers have taken
up the subject as a theme for compll
mentary editorials and whatever un
favorable mention may have been
made of Tom Richardson's failure to
enthuse the property owners a week
before, has been drowned In the
praises for the real estate men's boos
ter meeting.
The seed that was scattered in the
Tom Richardson meeting, failure
though It was, will grew and ripen
Into a publicity movement for Uma
tilla county which will surpass any
thing of the kind In Oregon.
There Is more to offer In the way
of land, water, climate, transportation
facilities, Investment opportunity,
home making opportunity In Umatilla
county than in any other eastern Ore
gon county. The area of vacant land
which Is ready for settlement, Is
greater here than In any other county.
And the spirit of the country, the
live, vigorous class of citizens all com
bine to make the booster movement a
success here. Something has been
slarted which no opposition can ever
stop. Come and be a "Jlner."
big thief, even where the law lays Its
hands upon him, gets off; your little
thief -is likely to go to Jail.
But even the little offenders chances
are good better than two to one. For
of 11,037 cases of grand Mrccny re
ported by the chief clerk of the dis
trict attorney of Xew York for the
seven years ended December 31, 1908,
there were 6637 cases' acquitted, dis
charged or dismissed, and there were
only 4400 convictions.
The fact that there have been a few
more convictions for embezzlement In
1007 than In the previous year In
nearly all the large cities Is merely
the result of there having been a much
greater number of embezzlements,
and does not mark a growing tenden
cy to prosecute, as some misinformed
vriters seem to think.
AT DAYBREAK.
As the faint dawn crept upward, gray
and dim,
He saw her move across the path to
him
Her eyes as they had looked in long
gone years,
Tender with love, and soft with
thoughts of tears.
Her hands outstretched as if In won
derment, Nestled In his, and rested there, con
tent. "Sweetheart," he whispered, "what
glad dream Is this?
I feel your clasp your long-remembered
kiss
' Touches my Hps; I hold your tender
form
Close In my arms again yea, close
and warm.
"As In the days when first you used to
creep
Into my heart; and yet, this Is not
sleep
"Is It some vision, that with night
will fly?"
"Xay, dear," she answered, "It is
really I."
"Yea, little sweetheart, it is you, I
know!
But It Is strange the dead can meet us
so.
"Bodied as we are; see, how like we
stand!"
"Yea," she replied, " "in form , and
face, and hand."
Silent awhile he held her to his
breast,
As If afraid to try the further test
Then, speaking quickly: "Must you go
away?"
"Xay, dear," she murmured: "neither
night nor day!"
C'iose on her bosom then she drew
his head.
Trembling: "I do not understand!" he
said.
"I thought the spirit world was far
apart."
"Xay," she replied, "It Is not, now,
dear heart!
"Quick! let me close your eyes with
kisses. . . so. , . .
Cling to me. dear! 'tis but a step-ti
go!"
The white-faxed watchers rose beside
his bed;
Shut out the day," they sighed; "our
friend is dead!"

BIG THIEVES ESCAPE.
Writing In the Saturday Evening
Post, Bailey Millard tells how the big
thief escapes. He says: In Xew York,
aa Is shown by the records of District
Attorney Jerome's office, the big thief
nearly always goes free. Of 3274
cases of grand larceny under which
head comes embezzlements In the
years 1905 and 1906 there were only
three cases of conviction In which the
sum named In the records was $50,
000 or over.
The great mass of the other convic
tions was for the stealing of sums
ranging from $100 to 11000. Your
ASPIRATION.
Something I may not win attracts i
me ever
Something elusive, yet supremely
fair.
Thrills me with gladness, but contents
me never,
Fills me with sadness, yet forbids
despair.
It blossoms Just beyond the paths
follow,
It shines beyond the farthest stars
I see,
it ecnoes ramt rrom ocean caverns
hollow,
And from the land of dreams It
beckons me.
It calls, and all my best, with Joyful
feeling, .
Essays to reach It as I make reply;
I reel its sweetness o'er my spirit
stealing,
Yet I know ere I attain It, I must
die!"
Florence Earle Coates.
THERE, LITTLE GIRL, DON'T CRY!
There! little girl, don't cry!
They have broken your doll, I
know;
And your tea-set blue,
And your play-house, too,
Are things of that long ago;
But childish tapubles will soon
pass by
There! little girl, don't cry!
There! little girl, don't cry!
They have broken your slate, I
know;
And the glad, wide-ways
Of your school-girl days
Are the things of the long ago;
But the life and love will soon
come by
There! little girl, don't cry!
There! little girl, don't cry!
They have broken your heart, I
know;
And the rainbow gleams
Of your youthful dreams
Are things of the long ago;
But Heaven holds all for which
you sigh
There! little girl, don't cry!
James Whltcomb Riley.
BLOOD FILLED WITH UlUC ACID
Rheumatism comes from an excess of uric acid in the blood. Thi acid
circulating through the systein'acts as an irritant to the different muscles,
nerves, bones and tissues of the body, and produces the inflammation and
swelling of the joints and the sharp, cutting pains characteristic of the dis
ease. When the blood is overburdened with uric acid it continually grows
weaker and more acrid, and poorer in nourishing qualities. Then Rheuma
tism becomes chronic, and not only a painful, but a formidable and danger
ous disease. Sometimes the heart is attacked, the general health is affected,
and the oils and fluids which lubricate the muscles and joints are destroyed
by the acrid matter which the blood is constantly depositing in them ; the
muscles shrink and lose their elasticity, the coating of the joints becomes
hard and thick, and often the Bufferer is left a hopeless cripple. S. S. S.
attacks the disease at its head, goes down into the circulation, and by neutral
izing and removing the uric acid from the
circulation and building up the thin, acrid
blood, cures Rheumatism permanently.
S. S. S. changes the sour, acid-burdened blood
to a rich, healthy stream which quiets the
excited nerves, eases the throbbing, painful
muscles and joints, and filters out of the
system the irritating matter which is causing
the pain and inflammation. Begin the use of S. S. S. now and get the cause
out of your blood so that the cold and dampness of Winter will net keep you
in constant pain and misery. Book on Rheumatism and any medical advice
