President French of thf Weston Kormal school, has an Ideal In school life w hich he wishes and is striving to carry out in the normal. The Ideal Is to mix manual labor In the educational course, to train the kand and the brain with equal care nd solicitude, to give dexterity to the srtudent-tradesman as well as mental training to the student-teacher. It is the ideal of President French to secure a tract of rich land near the normal where that institution may be made practically self-supporting from the Income from the student labor In this industrial field. The plan Is practical. Many of the students now work their way through the normal and many more would be glad to pay their expenses In this way If there were work to do. The Indus trial department, land and labor, could te made a most profitable part of the aormal and the development of that feature would not be out of line with genuine normal training. Every well qualified teacher should know what labor Is and should be able to teach its dignity and nobility. All normal students cannot be teach ers, but it is safe to say that practi- cally all of them will be required to ' labor and a knowledge of Industrial " things, an acquaintance with manual labor carried on In a systematic and practical manner to get results, is a most valuable asset for any young man oi woman. : So much labor i.i now wasted through Ignorance: so much effort Is lost through misunderstanding and lack of system, that the world Is ready to welcome the systematic, organized, Intelligent worker. In whatsoever de partment of activity he enters. The East Oregonlan Is glad to see the industrial, the manual side of the normal developing and believes that this school under this plan and with this ideal view, is the foundation for a splendid educational-Industrial lnstl . tution in eastern Oregon. SAVE THE RESOURCES. For a number of years the slogan of the irrlgatfonists has been: "Save the forests; store the floods." And under the Roosevplt administration this has become something more than an emp ty slogan; it has become a policy, an executed fact. Never before In the history of the government has one administration done as much for future generations aa has the Roosevelt administration In setting aside the forest of the nation, ft; reclaiming the arid soil with Idle waters, m checking the plundering of the public domain. If President Roosevelt had done nothing more for his government than these things, he would stand as a monumental figure in future histories. But these great achievements are but a part of his gigantic tasks. Predatory wealth has been checked -lr Its onslaughts on the Industrial wealth of the country. Political pur ' My has been Injected Into the govern- ment departments. The Panama canal ' kaa been half constructed, the vigor ous hand of the nation has been laid upon belligerent countries until peace rem assured and high Ideals of gov ernment have been Instilled Into the nation until the rampant reign of cor rvption has come to a sudden end. If the congress of governors which recently assembled In Washington will do as much as a body, as Theo dore Roosevelt has done, as an Indi vidual to save the resources and pro tect the common property of the na tion, the dream of the Idealist would bo close to realization. But few men have the force or op timism of Theodore Roosevelt. Few of the governors of states have the nation's welfare at heart as intensely as the president and so the outcome of this congress Is problematical. THE TENDERFOOT. Thirty years ago this spring a "ten derfoot" settled among the sagebrush beside the stage road running through Umatilla county. The Btage driver ridiculed the Idea of making a home there, and the stage. driver knew, for had he not driven stage over that route for five years and had seen noth ing but sand and Jack rabbits. But the "tenderfoot' 'was determin ed to have a home and so he began digging a ditch from the Umatilla river and turned the water upon a lit tle garden patch. Next spring the driver was startled to see green grass and garden stuff growing In the sand. Then he was amazed to see peach blooms bursting from the limbs of lit tle trees and next year he saw several stacks of alfalfa dotting the patch of cleared ground. But still he doubted. "I will give you to two years to starve out," he said to the "tenderfoot." The "ten derfoot" had but little money to be sure, while the driver drew 1100 per month and spent It all in Pendleton, La "Grande and Baker City Joints within two days after he drew It. This week the "tenderfoot" sold a portion of his sagebrush flat for 110, 000 and still owns enough to make him Independently rich. And last month that same knowing stage driv er was sent to a poor house In the Coeur d'Alenes, after 30 years of a precarious existence as a laborer for others. "The "tenderfoot" won the bet. He played a winning game. He stuck to the sagebrush. The old stage road has vanished, the old driver has been forgotten, but the sagebrush flat and its ditches filled with water are the marvel of the land. WHO SAID MACIUNE? The Oregon Dally Journal Is seeking, to make a martyr of Governor Cham berlain by saying that the republican "machine" Is against him, has vowed tc get his scalp, has set out to accom plish his utter defeat. If there Is a "republican machine" since the primaries nobody has been able to discover it. The people of the republican party are in control. . The rank and file of the party nas assert ed its prerogative and will select Its candidates. While on the other hand. Governor Chamberlain Is head and boss of one of the most perfect political machines ever organized in Oregon. It Is so perfect that no one dare to aspire to the senatorshlp In the" democratic ranks, but Governor Chamberlain. It is so perfect that there Is no competi tion among democrats for county of' flees. It is so perfect that the demo crats pay no heed to the primary law take no part In the primary election. The "machine" simply names can didates and they run, and nobody else dares to run as a democrat. This little attempt to make a martyr of the chief machine manipulator In Oregon is laughable. The governor himself will doubtless laugh when in the safety of his private office, alone with himself. The East Oregonlan Is carrying some paid advertising matter for the anti-equal suffrage league of Port land, but tnla does not mean that this paper Is for the anti-suffrage people. On the contrary, it favors the equal suffrage amendment to the constitu tion and believes that It will and should carry this year. The voters of Umatilla county are urged to give good women the chance to vote, since bad men have that right. Let us even things up a little. It will not be com pulsory. Women who do not care to vote, need not do so. Those who wish to vote should have that right. If you have not read your 19 Ini tiative measures through yet, It is time you were doing so. Some revolution ary changes In the laws of the state are proposed In many of them, and you should be able and prepared to vote Intelligently upon them. It not sure of your ground, vote "No" for safety. Better make a mistake on the side of safety than otherwise. Do you believe In education? Do you want a state university? If so, vote "yes" No. 214 on the official bal lot on election day. The passage of this bill will Increase your taxes a little more than 2 cents If you pay taxes on $1000 worth of property. All progressive citizens should support the bllL THE MARRIAGE UNREST AND A REMEDY. The mental attitude of courtship Is always that of self-improvement; never that of criticism, constructive or otherwise. Married people are forever trying to Improve each other; but this Is a mistake which lovers seldom make. ' The young man, dining with his sweetheart, does hot call her atten tion to the burned biscuits, he knows that to do so would be destructive to that which he Is trying to create, and he Instinctively avoids all criticism. He knows that If he can develop something In hfmself by which she shall be attracted, she will make the very best biscuits she knows how to make in the hope of pleasing him, and if she can learn how to make better biscuits, she will do so without being urged by criticism. And on the other hand, she does not criticise him; she does not seek to Improve him; she knows that the more she makes of herself the more he will improve himself In his desire to im press her favorably. Strange that those who know so well how to call out the best In others before marriage should almost Invariably reverse their methods after marriage. Any married couple, no matter how "Incompatible," can develop marriage love and live happily and successfully together by following the lines sug gested: first, consenting that neither shall absolutely possess the other; second, both living the advancing life; and third, each absolutely refraining from criticism, or from any attempt to correct or improve the other, while endeavoring to win the favor of the other by self-improvement. In -other words, any marriage may be made successful by Instituting a courtship. Wallace D. Wattles In June Xautllus. "THE WAY." However certain of the way thou art, Take not the self-appointed leader's part. Follow no man, and by no man be led. And no man lead. Awake, and go ahead. Thy path, though leading straight un to the goal Might prove confusing to another soul. The goal Is central; but from east, and west. And north and south, we set out on the quest; From lofty mountains, and from val leys low: How could all find one common way to go? Lord Buddha to the wilderness was brought, Lord Jesus to the Cross. And yet, think not By solotude, or cross, thou canst achieve, . Lest in thine own true Self thou dost believe. Know thou are One, with life's Al mighty Source, Then ar thy feet set on the certain Course. Nor does it matter If thou feast, or fast, Or what thy creed or where thy lo: Is cast; In halls of pleasure, or In crowded mart, In city streets, or from all men apart Thy path leads to the Light; and peace and power Shall be thy portion, growing hour by hour. Follow no man, and by no man be led. And no man lead. But know and go ahead. Ellh. Wheeler Wilcox In Juno Xautllus. Captured After Thirteen Year Frank Hart escaped from the coun ty Jail at Seattle 13 years ago, whllo an appeal In his case was pending. He has since been running a poolroom at WItchlta, Kan., where he was recently recognized by a railroad detective and placed under arrest. He will now serve out his term In the state pen-l tentlary. The Modesty of Women Naturally makes them shrink from the indelicate questions, tho obnoxious ex aminations, and unpleasant local treat ments, which some physicians consider sssentlal In tho treatment of diseases of women. Yet, If help can bo had, It Is better to submit to' this ordeal than let the disease (row and spread. The trouble Is that so often tho woman undergoes all the annoyance and shame for nothing.
