The republican platform of the state of Washington contains a de mand for a strong local option law, by which the people of the various com munities may regulate the liquor traf fic to suit themselves. This Is an ad vance step which will make the re publican party stronger than ever In . the northwest. Oregon, a republican state, has a ' iocal option law, a direct primary law, the Initiative and referendum and other progressive measures by which the people may express their sentl menu on public questions. Therefore It is not necessary to have socialistic, popullstic or other sort of reformation to secure good re suits. The staunch, sturdy member ship of the dominant party Is capable and willing to make progress as the results of Oregon and Washington show. Li Follette maje the argument In hi lecture In this city that democrats In strongly republican states should Join the republicans and help secure reforms in that way. In this way all the reform forces of a state may be Joined together and accomplish that for which they are striving. What matters it who brings the re form, just so it comes? penpi.etox (;of.s ahead. To those who have kept close watch on the movement for a federal build- in this city the news that the $70,000 appropriation for a building has fi nally pasesd the house. Is no surprise. rendleton Is the largest city In eastern Oregon, the center of a vast rich empire as large as two or three New England states and in all of this vast empire tributary to Pendleton, there Is no federal building. ' It has seemed Impossible that when congress was made to know this con dition, that a building should be de nied Pendleton. To the untiring work of Congressman Ellis In presenting the true condition of eastern Oregon to congress, is therefore due the credit of the progress made. The erection of the federal building In this city will mean the recognition of this city as the pivotal, central point In eastern Oregon and will bring the headquarters of every government bureau In eastern Oregon to this city. The best era is yet ahead of Pendleton. PRAISE FOR O. R. & X. welfare of the country, was conserv ing Its resources, was protecting the Interests of the peoplo. For that exact duty It has been de pended upon for more than a century. Has it failed to do Its duty? Has the system by which It Is elected and con stituted failed to gather In the con gress representatives ' big" and broad enough to protect and defend the people's Interests and the country's resources? Has election by party and for par tisan reasons brought the country to the point where a conference of gov ernors must Intervene to save the country from wreck? Is the present madness and self sufficiency of the national senate resisting Uooseveltisni, a sign of It? What else does the con ference at Wellington mean? If the University of Oregon Is sus tained by the people at the polls In June, the graduates of Pendleton and other high schools may go to their home university to complete their ed ucation. If the university Is not sus tained and Is allowed to struggle along with but half enough funds, our young people will be forced to seek a higher education outside of Oregon. State pride should c;mt an overwhelming vote for the University of Oregon on June 1.

I am able to do my work, eat and drink what I want, and am re joiced to know that I found a sare cure In your valuable medicine," Xo matter how many times you have been to Hermlston and the gov ernment Irrigation 'project, it will pay you to go again. That vast work Is now nearlng completion and will soon be delivered to the settlers. The week end excursions over the O. It. & X. af ford exceptional advantages to see the government project. INDUSTRIAL HYPOCRITES. Andrew Carnegie in an address be fore the cor.gress of governors at the White Hous yesterday, bewailed the depletion of the natural resources of the country and especially mourned the disappearing supply of Iron ore. - And yet Andrew Carnegie has mo nopolized the iron and steel industry the the fountry, and has seized every foot of available Iron ore land and lias done more to deplete that natural resonrc perhaps than any other one man. John D. Rockefeller preaches Brotherhood and fraternity and urges the people to spend less money and be more economical, and yet that pious old fraud has done more to rob the consumer of his honest earnings and hag taken more money from the people In unjust and extortionate prices than, any other one man in the world. James J. Hill bemoans the disap pearing timber supply of the country, and yet Hill has encouraged sawmill syndicates and timber monopolies along the lines of the Northern Paci fic and Great Northern and has di rectly encouraged the depletion of the forest by -the lumber corpora- On every hand in Umatilla county Is heard praise for the freight de partment of the O. R. & X. for run ning the demonstration train through eastern Oregon counties. Xo less praise is heard for the excellent lec turers from Oregon Agricultural col lege who accompanied the train. Although the objects of running the train may be selfish on part of the railroad company. In that the com pany hopes to see traffic for its lines Increased, yet what great forward movement in the industrial world Is not selfish In Its inception? Did Jim Hill build railroads Into the heart of the Dakota wheat belt for philanthropic purposes? Hardly. Did Edison Invent the phonograph for fun? Are the automobile companies improving their machines Just for amusement? Every advance movement has a sel fish foundation, but In that selfish ness Is widespread benefit and in at taining a selfish object thousands are aided. So If Improved farming methods bring Increased traffic for the rail road company, will they not enrich the farmers at the same time? It more wheat Is shipped out of Uma- llla county over the O. R. & X. lines will It not mean more bank accounts, more labor, more machinery accounts for Umatilla county? There Is no denying the fact that the Improved methods are coming. Where they have been tried they have been eminently successful. They have yielded an excellent profit and they will be adopted geenrally all over the state and the northwest, in time, and they will Increase the pn ductlon of crops two and three-fold when they come. LARGEST WOMAN LANDHOLDER. A Texas woman. Mrs. H. M. King, Is the largest landholder of her sex In the United States. Her possessions ag-1 gregate the enormous total of 1.4 TO. -000 acres, and she has u magnificent ranch home In Klngsvllle, Tex. Late ly she added 190.000 acres to her hold ings with as little fuss as the average person buys a small tract Most of her land Is cvalued at from $15 to $20 per acre, and her total wealth, In cluding cattle and other propetry. Is estimated at $30,000.00. Her estate is managed by her son-in-law, but Mrs. King is consulted about every Impotrant matter.

It 1 the only medicine I care to have. I always feel safe when I have It in the house. "I have used Peruna for nine years and I ought to know about It. Peruna ha helped me a great many times, and I shall praise It to every one of my friends." Ever since Peruna was In troduced to the public thirty years ago, the housewife has been an ever faithful friend to Peruna. Bhe It is that has seen the practical benefit of the use of Peruna in the family. When the baby has snuffles or cold she I give a few dose of Peruna,Instead of fill ing the system with the doctor's drugs. When the school children have coughs or cold she again resort to Peruna. When any member of the family is afflicted with catarrh, either in It acute form or chronic, Peruna is resorted to. In ft large number of minor ailment ' ' Vl Dyapepila and Conttpatlsa Kit. John M.

During the early days she was one of the settlers who experienced great hardships, the country then being in fested with Mexican bandits and cutthroats. Another Texas woman, Mrs. C.

She Is a All this has won the confidence of the housewife In Peruna, which cannot be easily shaken by the atatement of people who know nothing of Peruna, having never had any personal experi ence in it use.

C, this month, has given rise to many pertinent questions, concerning the conservation of the natural resources of the country. People have asked why the congress was necessary, why It was deemed expedient to call the governors together to consider ques tions which belong primarily to con- gress. The Oregon Dally Journal in dis cussing the congress and 1U alms, says: Why is It that there Is a conference of governors of the states, and of other notables, at Washington? It Is gathering, called by the president, to consider the welfare of the coun try. It Is a gathering hitherto un known. It is such a gathering that Its calling Involuntarily carries with It the idea that all Is not well. A foreboding that an extraordinary conference Is necessary as a means of Invoking precautionary measures, s the logic and unconscious deduction of this unparalleled assesmbly. It gives pause to the thinking citizen, who Is compelled to ask himself the query, why Is this assembly called? Why i It deemed necessary to even take action looking to a permanent rganlzatlon of this extraordinary gathering of governors of states, and other of the nation's best brains? Since ilit, it ha been presumed by the people that the congress of the United State wa promoting the Baseball Is a good thing for every thing and everyone except grandmoth er. While statistics are unobtainable t Is estimated that, about 7000 grand mothers perish on or before the day every game Is played on the big league circuits. Sometimes she dies of mumps; oth er times she perishes because the doc tor doesn't know anything about the ease, or, mayhap, because even he can not make a cull that afternoon be tween 3 and 5 o'clock and afford the proper treatment; other times because she falls and breaks her backbone, but more often Just because. Only the grandmothers of office boys, er rand boy3 and other youngsters who help around at 'odd things are taken off. It is only common decency that they should attend the funerals, which are held In . the afternoon, usu ally between 1:30 and 5 o'clock. -The boss grins knowingly but he hasen't the heart to keep any boy away from nis granamotners runerai. He was once a lad himself, and maybe he had a grandmother to perish In the base ball season. Rain has spoiled many a funeral. John T. McCutcheon. TO DEATH. Come to the bridal chamber, Death! Come to the mother's, when she feels For the first time, her first-born's breath! Come when the blessed seals That close the pestilence are broke, And crowded cities wall Its stroke!

And thou art terrible! the tear, The groan, the knell, the pall, the bier, And all we know, or dream, or fear Of agony, are thine. Selected. Xo Discrimination.
