I am tired of planning and toll
ing In the crowded hive 'of men;
Heart weary of building and
spoiling.
And spoiling and building
again.
And I long for the dear old
river.
Where I dreamed my youth
away.
For a dreamer lives forever,
And a toller dies In a day.
I am sick of the showy seeming
Of a life that is half a lie.
Of the faces lined with schem
ing In the throng that hurries by;
From the sleepless thoughts
endeavor
I would go where the child
ren play
For a dreamer lives forever.
And a thinker dies In a day.
John Boyle O'Reilly.
STATEMENT NO. 1.
For the second time In the great
and progressive state of Oregon, the
principle of the popular election of
United States senators has been em
ohatlcally indorsed by the people. In
the next legislature, at least 52 state
ment Xo. 1 members will hold office,
a majority of five for popular election
of senators.
The republicans of Oregon have had
ample warning on this subject If
the party is to remain In power It
must get Into the band wagon with
the people. It cannot stand in the
attitude of being afraid to trust the
people and still win.
Had Senator Fulton Indorsed the
popular election of senators and
statement Xa 1 In his Corvallis
speech, outlining his policy, last fall.
.ho would have swept the state and
would now be the nominee of the peo-
. pie of Oregon for the senate.
As it was he rc-pudiated that prin
ciple. b fie 1 the people in a sense,
and consequently turned the state
over to a democratic wave which has
elected the nf-xt United States senator.
The statement No. 1 members will
elect Governor George E. Chamber
lain next winter within 40 minutes
after assembling for the senatorial
election. Neither disruption, corrup
tion, bribery, crookedness or preju
dice can swerve these men from their
purpose. They have given their
pledge.
There Is no reason in the world
why a republican should not be elect
ed to the senate from Oregon. It Is
a republican state, has plenty of re
publican timber, and should be repre
sented by republicans.
But the leading republicans of the
state have defied the people's wishes,
. have sought to thwart progress, to
' hold the state In the hollow of the
hand of a few leaders, and the result
Is that'lt is now a democratic state,
and such It will remain until repub
licans get right on a number of big
Issues now agitating the sovereign
people of Oregon.
and conducting fairs and sales for pay,
thus Invading the business realm and
people will soon say If It Is a busi
ness Institution that It must bear Its
share of taxes.
' And so the East Oregonlan sincere
ly believes that within a few years,
the billions of dollars of church
property of the United States will be
paying Its Just share of taxes in the
support of the government.
Where the church organizations
take an active part In business, poll-i
tics and the economic life of the na
tion, they get away from the original
conception of religion as held by
those old patriots who exempted
church property.
The modern idea of religion has
changed its status In government and
so government will be forced to
change Its attitude toward religion
and Instead 'of exempting billions of
dollars worth of magnificent property
the government will say to this prop
erty that It must bear an equal por
tion of the burden of government.
It Is also an economic waste to al
low magnificent property In the heart
of cities to escape taxation while the
t41er with but a pittance, the .widow
with a small home, the hard working
tradesman with his meager Income,
must all pay taxes to support govern
ment. Justice and sound economic
principles will be applied to this sub
ject next, and It will be changed to
suit changed conditions of society.
CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
A YD LEPROSY.
HELP THE CITY COUNCIL.
THE NEXT BIG REFORM.
The next few years will see magni
ficent reform work done In the United
States. The country Is adopting pro
hibition everywhere, simply because
the liquor traffic Is an economic
waste. Taxpayers have come to the
conclusion that the income from the
business does not offset the expense
which It causes.
And so, everywhere, In city and
country, prohibition U being adopted
and will be a permanent policy. It
will be permanent simply because It
pays. It is money In the pockets of
taxpayers, as a whole. It keeps down
expenses.
The next great reform, after nation
wide prohibition, will be the removal
et the tax exemption from church
property. The church is engaging In
business everywhere, riving public en
tertainments for pay, serving dinners
The mayor and city council of Pen
dleton are to be heartily congratulat
ed upon the courageous manner In
which they are meeting the new con
ditions Imposed upon the city by pro
hibition. The income from liquor li
censes Is suddenly cut off leaving the
city budget " woefully "short" tem
porarily, but the condition will be met
and disposed of.
The taxpayers and business men
must and will co-operate with the
city council In devising means to meet
expenses. The East Oregonlan, as
one of the taxpayers of the city, as
sures the city council of Its most
hearty co-operation and will cheer
fully pay whatever increased tax the
new condition may Impose and It be
lieves that It voices the sentiment of
every other business institution and
taxpayer in saying this.
Pendleton Is here and Is going to
stay here. This is our home and bus
iness location. - Property Is worth as
much today as It was yesterday or
last month and conditions will adjust
themselves. Ail that Is needed Is the
cheerful and Intelligent co-operation
of business men and property owners
to successfully tide the city over the
temporary confusion of conditions to
safe, substantial and permanent fi
nancial condition which will forever
be independent of liquor licenses and
tribute from vice.
Let us encourage and co-operate
with the city council. It Is a new and
perplexing situation. For 40 years
Pendleton and every other western
town has depended upon the liquor
license to meet expenses. But coun
ties have not done this, and vast im
provements have been made. States
have not depended upon this source
of taxation and think of the vast sys
tems of state government maintain
ed
And so cities need not depend upon
this source. The change will be con
fusing, to be sure, since we have been
accustomed to the old way so long,
but everj' good citizen will do his part
In helping adjust conditions. Pendle
ton Is the best town In the inland
empire arid will remain such.
Let every Pendleton man be a pat
riot, be loyel, fair-minded citizen and
soon conditions will be settled and
the present predicament will be laugh
ed at.
"The Journal of Man" reprints the
following from Dr. George W. . Bar
rett b account of his cure. As this
has been alluded to briefly In the
news columns, it is well to get the en
tire story clearly In mind, as It shows
that so-called miracles are still pos
sible. rr. Barrett declares that he was
"a physical wreck, suffering from en
largement of the liver, Indigestion,
ulceration of the bowels In the most
aggravated form, heart trouble and
that most dreaded of all diseases
called leprosy, which had been con
tracted when called to see a patient
who was afflicted with It.
"I kept my own counsel and pre
pared to settle up my earthly affairs,
for I felt that my days were few.
Then a former patient of mine said
she had been cured by Christian Sci
ence and urged me to try It. Having
failed In the use of the strongest
medicines. I scoffed at the Idea she
presented, but finally consented to an
Interview with the healer who had
treated her.
Well do I remember that Interview,
the first question I asked was: 'Do
you pretend to say that Christian
.science can cure all diseases without
any medicine whatever? Her answer
was: "I do, sir, and I am hPr to
demonstrate and prove It to you.' I
told her I had telegraphed to New
York for some medicine, but that If
sue wanted to experiment on . me
while waiting for it she could sail In;
that I had to die but once and she
could do no more thap kill me, and
I would Just as soon die ns not, for
death would be preferable to the con
diton I was then In.
"She gave me a treatment, and
talked with me for an hour or more.
As she was going to leave. I Inqured
about my diet what would she rec
ommend me to eat, etc., as I had not
dared to eat any solid food for
months. She laughed and said: 'Just
e.u anytning you like and all
want of it; It cannot hurt you.
:oon after she left the pain be
gan to disappear and In the course of
half an hour It was all gone and I
began to feel hungry. By the time
dinner was ready (Just an hour and a
nair from the time she left) I was
as hungry as a bear that has been
'holed up' all winter. -But I did not
dare say anything as my family were
Ignorant of what had been done, nnd
knew I was opposed to anything of
th Unrf i
"When I sat down to the table I
said to myself, 1 am going to see if
you( the scientist) can keep this din
ner from hurting me.' Boiled beef,
cabbage, turnips, potatoes, onions!
pickles, bread and butter disappeared
as If by magic, and I finished with a
quarter of a good-sized pie and a cup
of coffee. In fact, I ate till I could
eat no more. The pain failed to ap.
pear and never has appeared from
that day to this. Other signs of len-
orsj naa nearly vanished and words
could not express my feelings of iov
and gladness."

MASTEIt OF DREAMS.
They stripped me bare and left me by
the way
To p'ne forsaken In a lonely land:
They gave me to night frosts and
burning day,
To griefs none understand.
They took my sliver from me and my
gold.
The changing splendors of my rich
array;
Night's silver rain of dew escaped
their hold,
And the find gold of day.
On the world's highway In vain pomp
they tread;
By paths unknown I stray and hid
den streams;
They took all else and left me there
for dead; .
They could not take my dreams.
Htlll morning comes with marvel as of
old;
Still in soft rose descends the even
tide; Still In the castle of my heart, grown
bold.
The sweet swift thoughts abide.
Pass by, pass by, O cjamorous folk
and wild!
To this last fortress of the soul I
cling;
Men game me Winter weather from a
child;
But God has given me Spring.

What To So.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidiiey remedy,
fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism,
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.
It corrects inability to hold water
end scalding pain in passing it, or had
effects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne
cessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and
the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root
is soon realized. It stands the highest
for its wonderful cures of the most dis
tressing cases. If you need a medicine
you should have the best. Sold by drug
gists in fifty-cent and one-dollar sizes.
