Richard Realf. FDR PENDLETON'S WELFARE. Here is something for Pendleton capitalists and property owners to remember, always: ( Pendleton should be the center and objective point of any electric line system constructed In Umatilla county. This county Is so situated that one system of electric roads can cover It and accommodate very settlement in the county, but the logical head and center of that line must be Pendleton.. . No plan should be adopted by which Walla Walla or any other point would be the headquarters and center of a system penetrating this country. Any dentine for the development of elec tric lines In this county should have its center in this city. Umatilla c'oun ty will always support one good city Aith a dozen or more small towns as at present, and Pendleton capita should see that Pendleton Is made the pivotal point. ' This fact is so plain that it needs nc further exploitation. An indepen .dent system of t''.''.r'.: l!-.os having its center In this city should be started to clu c k mate any tendency which would J raw Umatilla county people else where. This is Pendleton's duty and salvation. expect women to be pure and high and noble and there Is always an un expected pang Id the knowledge that a woman has fallen from her high pedestal. There Is something revolting In the thought that a woman could be con nected with a gang of counterfeiters, as is charged against Mrs. Gordon, who wa shot at M.irshfl.-Kl yester day. This sort of crime seems to be lng to men. This form of debase ment wa not Intended for women. The world has neld women up so hish, has surrounded them with such ideals of purity and nobleness that It seems unbelievable that they could sloop to the common depravity which curses the lives of so many men. And yet they say a mean woman is the ineanest thing on earth. HIS FAITH IX UMATILLA. Dr. Henry Waldo Coe, who has be come Identified with the development o: Umatilla county through the pur chase of a half Interest In the Furnish Irrigation project, is backing his faith In this county with his money. He has purchased an SO-acre tract under the Furnish project, paid full price for it Just as any other purchas er, and will set out the entire tract In peach and pear trees. This land was formerly sagebrush, producing but little grass and no veg etation 'except the sa$e. It is high, dry and unimproved but lies under the Furnish ditch and needs but little le veling to make it ready for alfalfa or other forage crops. It seems unbelievable to the old pi oneers to think that this high ridge between Fosters and Hermlston should produce crops and fruits, but that Is what It is doing. That very' sandy loam is now being sold In small tracts and within a few years will smile with verdure and orchard bloom from end to end. Peach and pear orchards will thrive beyond belief in that rich land and will yield thousands of dollars per acre after once at matuiity. Ber ries will yield a handsome Income and truck gardening will make' fortunes for those who have the nerve to en gage in that business. The best Inducement for settlers to go ipon that land, however. Is the fact that one of the proprietors, himself, will plant an 80-acre peach and pear orchard -there and will show his faith by spending his money. There is no way In the world by which anybody can make a mistake by settling on any of the rich lands now open for settlement In the west end of Umatilla county. The land, water, soil, climate, transportation, seasons everything is in-favor of that section. paper trust Is shown by the letters submitted to the congressional com mittee now Investigating the prices of paper. Out of 200 papers giving evi dence In the matter It Is shown that nearly every one has experienced an advance of from SO to SO per cent In the price of newspaper since the first or the present year. These advances have been made with no other object than to extort unjust tribute from the newspapers. The price of wood pulp or any other paper making material has not advanced. It is simply a bare faced robbery on part of the trust. The 50,000 acres of land now being brought under Irrigation In the west end of Umatilla county are now worth Jf, 000. 000 in their present state. In five years from now they will be worth five times that sum or $25, 000,000. Are you going to share In that great Increase? Are you going to enjoy a portion of that additional wealth? No. the entire democratic party of Umatilla county did not accompany Governor Chamberlain In three auto mobiles to the east end of the county. "Uncle" Dick Powers . remained at Weston. HIT NEWSPAPER MEN. It Is the habit to speak of Presi dent Harrison as the "coldest" man who ever lived in the White House. Time is mellowing the bitterness of Harrison's critics, says the Editor and Publisher, and each year he grows a bigger figure in our history. It was said he could not take a Joke or give one that would make men laugh with genial warmth. It Is becoming known that Harrison had a fine sense of hu mor. It is related that he was called up on for a speech at the first Gridiron dinner he attended. He looked around at the assembled newspaper men and observed In a quiet way: "This Is the second time this week I have been called upon to open a congress of American Inventors." The shaft went home and a shout of laughter went up. Mr. Harrison went on: "I wll say i this for you I have often been im- J pressed with the accuracy w ith which you predict what I am going to do and still more with the accuracy with which you subsequently explain why I didn't do it." UNCLE SAM'S KINDERGARTEN. Cabrera, the unhappy president of Guatemala, seems to be between two fires, says the Spokane Chronicle. His conduct of his country's affairs at home has caused the formation of a revoiutionar party, and recently an attempt was made to assassinate him. His conduct of his country's for eign relations is said to have roused the Ire of Mexico. And now, of cturse, finding himself between the devil and the deep sea, he has set up a wail, and asked Uncle Sam to help him out. In the politics of the two Americas the United States Is called upon to ftrform services much like those of n nurse or kindergarten teacher. If or e of the little republics has "a pain In Its little insides" Uncle Sam Is asked to administer the remedy, and If two of them get to pulling hair he has, perforce, to Intercede and ar range a peace. Unfortunately he has not the priv ilege of administering a spanking where one would be of benefit. WOMEN AM) DEPRAVITY. Somehow there is always a revolt ing suggestion in the depravity of a woman. People expect men to be de praved, it seems and the sting of their debasement is dulled by the expecta i tlon. But somehow, whether it be through the mother-love of the races, the worship of humanity at the shrine of woman or through the idealized estimate placed upon the sex, men IMITATING PENDLETON, Talk about advertising Pendleton! Pendletonlans do not need a pub licity fund to secure valuable" and far reaching advertising! Every move made by Pendleton business men for the advancement of their city and county is readily Imi tated by every other progressive city in the inland empire. The Pendleton stamp placed upon a movement is a sure guarantee of Its worth. nefore the real estate men's or ganization of this city and county cooled off sufficiently to permit It to be handled, Baker City organizes a real estate men's association on the same lines. La Grande takes steps to unite her real estate dealers In a like organization and Walla Walla quietly imitates Pendleton's excellent plan. Before the echo of Pendleton's mar ket day auctioneer had died away on the first market day, La Grande, Day ton, Waitsburg, Baker City, Caldwell, Eugene, The Dalles, Ontario, Vale and every' town of any consequence In the state and northwest, had started a market day. S1IOHT ON JUDGMENT. A Pittsburg Judge recently threat ened to prosecute the publisher of a paper because the headlines. "Blank's Lies Read to the Jurors,' "appeared In his paper while a trial was going on In which Blank was a witness, al though the evidence offered showed pretty plainly that Blank was a liar. The Judge held that It might influence the Jury. Bosh! A Jury, that can be influenced to form an opinion con trary to the evidence in a case simply because of a headline In a paper, Is not sufficiently Intelligent to serve, and a Judge who does not realize that hasn't any judgment to spare. Buck eye Informer. Where the finest biscuit, cake, hot-breads, cruets or puddings are required Ifoyal is indispensable. Baiting Powder Absolutely Pure Not only for rich or fine food or for special times or service. . Royal is equally valuable in the preparation of plain, substantial, every-day foods, for all occa sions.. It makes the food more tasty, nutritious and wholesome. WA'ITEIISON ON .MONEY. Money Is relative. Money Is full of illusions and delusions. I would rather bo myself than a gold mine for all money could do for me. What Is there In riches, after all? Money is only relative. You may' have $100,000 and consider yourself rich. But you arc a pauper beside the person with $1,000,000, as Is he compared with the man worth $100,000,000. ,Tou can't buy happiness and success with money. And In striving for money you are liable to disappoint ment and despair, found every time on the "money route.' I am not con demning the rich. I should hate to think money is a bar to salvation. There is no doubt that many rich men have gone to heaven, but the man dealing in money Is liable to Judge people by the money standard. Enlarge the mind and amplify the soul If you would have success and happiness. It has been said that per severence conquers all things; again that labor conquers all things. The same has been said of love. Success In life Is happiness. The man who Is successful and happy be lieves his wife is the most beautiful woman In the world; that his home Is the finest place to be found; that his little red-headed, freckled brats are the best dressed kids in the town. Happiness springs from the mind and heart, not from the stomach and pocket. Henry Watterson. AMERICA'S FIRST NEWSPAPER. The first newspaper printed In North America was the Boston News Letter, the first Issue of which was on April 24, 1704. It was a small sheet, 12',i by 8 Inches In size, printed on a fair quality of handmade paper a little lighter In color than brown rapping paper. TO KILL THE DANDRUFF QIRM.

Police Inspector O'Reilly has given imperative Instructlnns. "Love making In Its proper place and done according to the strict code prescribed by Cupid Is all right," he says, "but I object to hugging and kissing when it is carried to excess." Captain Lawrence Murphy says he is worried over the delicate position in when his men wll be led. The po lice are Instructed to be gentlemanly on all occasions and not to be harsh with lovers. They are Instructed to walk very heavy when they belive It time for a "soul kiss" to stop and may whistle, cough or slap their hands as if attempting to scare a squirrel. THE MONEY CRANKS. People are looked down upon be cause they go crazy on religion. They are ridiculed because they become cranks on Invention, pet theories, lit erature, wine, women or song. A good roads crank is laughed at; a line norse crank is pointed at as a sort of excusable lunatic; a camera crank is tolerated because he Is harmless; other cranks are looked up on with pity, but no one ever seeks their society or their favors. But the money crank Is never de spised no matter how demented he may become. A 12 per cent money lender who talks hard times, scarc ity of money, pessimism, high Inter est, bad notes, dishonest debtors and all such stuff continuously day after day is considered a financier of great wisdom and foresight and nobody. thinks of classing him with the other cranks. If money is a man's mania he is not considered dangerous, although others far less absorbed in their fads are watched and feared. . bird and si tine mab lit X UAsMMrar la need ofVlVf pain ana iuh rou that therf Do You Think For Yourself ?
