Never daisy that grows, but a
mystery guldeth the grow

majesty scepters the flow
ing; Never a Shakespeare that soar
ed, but a stronger than he
did enfold him,
..or ever a prophet foretold,
but a mightier seed hath
foretold him.
Back of the canvas that throbs
the painter is hlntel and

Into the statue that breathes the
soul of the sculptor Is hid
den; Under the Joy that is felt He the
infinite issues of feeling;
Crowning the glory revealed is
the glory that crowns the
revealing.

WILL THEY COME HACK?
HELP THE COMMITTEE.
The publicity committee of Pendle
ton Commercial association and the
Real Estate Men's association is now
canvassing the different parts of the
county for funds with which to carry
on the publicity or advertising cam
paign for the entire county.
Every section of the county will be
visited and the business men will be
solicited for funds to help advertise
Umatilla county in the east. This
fund will be used for tho benefit of
the entire county. Each section is
equally Interested and the publicity
committee is giving Its time, energy,
money and labor to this worthy work.
The different sections of the county
are urged to Join In this work. One
town or community cannot carry all
the load and do all the worrk. Uma-
mua county as a wnoie must join to
gether and carry on an Intelligent and
we! organized publicity campaign
vmcn win uiing me iism miiu ui
settlers to the county.
We have more inducements to ad
vertise today than ever before. In the
history of the county. Let us imke
the best of the rich opportunity.
A number of fanners from Helix,
Athena and other sections of Umatilla
have moved their families to Walla
Walla within the past three or four
years for the alleged reason that
Walla Walla was a better town mor
ally, than Pendleton.
While making their Immense for
tunes from the abounding opportu
nities of Umatilla county, yet they
moved out of the county to spend their
fortunes and rear their families.
vNow, what reason have they for re
maining out of Umatilla county or
Pendleton? The moral conditions
here are what they want; prohibition
has been voted; the reform which they
wanted has been brought to the coun
ty, and what excuse can they now
offer for staying away from Pendle
ton? The East Oregonian urges
them to come back home.
In the first place. Walla Walla mor
als have never been better than those
of Pendleton. Both have been. "wet"
towns and Walla Walla has tolerated
a worse flass of saloons and more
open gambling than Pendleton and yet
these farmers have deceived them
selves Into believing that Walla Walla
was a better town morally, than Pen
dleton. Now they are undeceived. Pendle
ton will be "dry" after July 1 and
Walla Walla will continue to flaunt
her dives. If these farmers were hon
est in seeking a place where moral
conditions were good, in which to rear
ar.d educate their children, they can
not remain at Walla Walla.
Will they now show their apprecia
tion of Umatilla county's progress and
rtturn to this county where moral
conditions are good to make thjclr
permanent home?
Will they give their home county a
square deal? Let us see. They have
made fortunes here and now havs
what they have sought. Will they
return to a county having good mor
als? Or will they 'remain In the
presence of Walla Walla saloons with
their boys and girls?
THE LOW GREEN' DOOR.
The years roll on, and still we rev'-
rent tread,
We seek the place where rest the
honored dead;
Again we strew fresh flowers upon
each grave,
And place a flag where sleeps a sol
dier brave.
Step softly by each low green door,
It, opens earthward never more.
Again we sing the songs they sang of
old,
And glad recount their deeds of valor
bold;
While memory brings back through
mist of tears,
The sights and sounds of those far dis
tant years.
Step softly by each low green door.
It opens earthward never mote.
We name the battles o'er they fought
so well
Antletam. Gettysburg and Slilloh's
hell:
And as we thus recall the mighty past,
Our hearts on fire anew beat loud
and fast.
Step softly by each low green door,
It opens earthward never more.
Again we hear the bugle, drum and
fife,
And live once more the stirring mar
tial life;
In fancy see the gleam of campflre
bright,
And well-loved faces In its glowing
light.
Step softly by each low green door.
It opens earthward never more.
Gone, gone, all gone, the merry, sad
and gay;
Their blood was spilled in many a
hard-fought fray;
The loving myrtle wreaths their low
ly beds, ,
And peace doth brood above their
dust-covered heads.
Step softly by each low green door,
It opens heavenward evermore.
Townsend Allen.
Are You a
Lard Eater?
. Half the time when a person feels blue and out
of sorts you ma)' take it for granted that he is a victim
of the "lard habit." Lard-cooked food and good
stomachs are never friends for long. Lard food is not
healthful food and no ordinary stomach can thoroughly
digest it.
Lard comes from the pig-sty; Cottolene from the
cotton fields of The Sunny South. Lard is greasy,
indigestible, and sometimes absolutely harmful; Cot'
tolenc makes food digestible, nu- .
tritious, delicious. Cottolene is the
perfect shortening and frying me
dium. It is pure and healthful.
It contains not an ounce of hog-fat.
Cottolene is today in use by
thousands of housewives who
would no more think of going
back to lard than they would of
reverting to tallow dips for light
ing their homes."
Cottolene is one of the prod
ucts which pure food advocates
always endorse.

-MORE PROGRESS FOR OREGON.
The people of Oregon have Just
passed three more of what the poli
ticians call "freak measures," meas
ures giving the people more power in
state government, namely, the recall,
the proportional representation and
statement No. 1 enacted Into law.
The recall was passed by a major
ity of 1 5.74 S. showing that the peo
ple know what they want. The pro
portional representation bill was pass
ed by a majority of 6508 and state
ment No. 1 was enacted into law by
the overwhelming majority of 15,551.
In addition to these the Huntley bill,
or the corrupt practices bill, was also
passed by a majority of 1.854.
Thus four "freak" measures are
added to the already long list in Ore
gon and the people are gaining more
and more power and authority in state
government by these measures.
Will the legislature dare to "mon
key" with these measures? The peo
ple have never been repulsed by the
legislature yet. What will be done
with these alleged "freak" bills? The
people of Oregon are making pro
giess. And It Is safe to say that the
legislature will keep Its hands off.
THE NEXT GOVERNOR.
Since Governor George E. Chamber
Iain has received the popular vote of
Oregon for the United States senate,
speculation as to the political changes
and history which this election will
make in the state are now in order.
The constitution of the state pro
vides that In case of the death, re
moval, resignation or disability of the
governor that the duties of that office
ahall fall upon the secretary of state.
Consequently when Governor
Chamberlain resigns ' as governor,
which he -will not do, perhaps until
after th, legislature ratifies his elec-
The equal suffrage amendment has
been defeated by a majority of 9S90,
several hundred less than the mnjorl
ty acrainst It two years ago. This Is
some hope, at least. Every vote
gained Is a victory and the friends
of equal suffrage will never stop until
that amendment is placed as a law
upon the statute books of Oregon.
CPTIVK GETS ALLOTMENT.
Herman Lehman, a captive of the
Apaches when a lad of 11 years and
cruelly treated by them, has at last
come Into possession of an Indian al
lotment through the efforts of Sena
tor Gore, after three unsuccessful at
tempts had been made to get posses
sion of his property. With this com
pleted Lehman has been restored to
his tribal rjghts, says a Lawton, Ok
lahoma, story. Though a German, he
ls(a member of the Comanche tribe
of Indians. He Is generally known by
the Indians as Chief Quanah's boy, and
Is called Montechema by the Indians.
His oareer has been a romance of bor
der life.
When 11 years old he lived with
his mother In Texas. A raid of the
Apaches under Geronlmo, in which
houses were destroyed and pillage tak
en and a number of settlers killed,
young Lehman and his brother were
taken captive. The brother escaped
by mere strategy, while Herman was
tied to a pony and carried away.
With the surrender at Fort Sill of
Quanah Parker and his band to Gen
eral McKenzle, Lehman was among
the number. An investigation follow
ed resulting In the return of the cap
tive to his mother In Texas. A few
years of life away from the Indians,
to whom-he had become attached,
soon led him to return to southwest
Oklahoma.
The Comanche Indians In tribal
council and the efforts of Chief Qua
nah have been directed toward ob
taining recognition for him on the
tribal rolls by the government, which
have always failed until now. At the
council he waa made a member of
the tribe.
Lehman now lives with his wife and
ehlMren on a leased piece of land near
Indiahoma.
Frank Ruch, the keeper of the buf.
falo herd in the national forest of
Oklahoma, was talking In his office
the other day to a St. Louis man.
about some poor fodder he had re
fused.
"Poor stuff It was." said the ex-
cowboy. "It must have grown on
poor land. The land must have been
as poor as poor as "
He laughed.
"Once." he said, "a Kansas farmer
met on the hot, dusty road a home
steader pushing on excitedly toward
the Cherokee strip.
" 'Whar ye bound?" said the farm
er.
" 'Fer a 160 acres o' free land In
the strip." was the reply. And the
man vanished In the glitter of dust
and sunshine.
"Well, a montli or two went by, and
on the same dusty roar! the Kansas
farmer met the homesteader return-
ng.
' 'Hello,' he says, 'what ye done
with them 160 acres ?'
"The homesteader pointed his whip
proudly toward his mule team.
"'See' them mules?' sild he. 'Well,
traded S'l acres of my claim for
em.
"'What ye do with the other SO?"
" 'Don't give me away,' was the re
ply, 'but the feller was a tenderfoot,
an' I run In the other Si acres on
him without his knowln' It.' "
The new geographies will have
maps of the air, says the Chicago Tri
bune. The Aero club of France Is
about to draft a series of aerial at
lasses. The president of the club will
superintend the work and hns already
collected a vast number of documents
ready to begin. The first few maps
are to show the position of telegraph
wires, overhead cables and nil danger
ous obstacles which might be struck
by a balloon's guide at night. Over
head cables have been found convey
ing hlirh potential currents of 20.000
volts or more, and these easily might
cause disaster to a balloon whose oc
cupants are not aware of Its position.
It Is to help aeronauts to avoid such
obstacles ns these that the maps are
being prepared.
AX ESTIMATE OF FRED DUBOIS.
The political obituary of Fred T.
Dubois is already In type In several
of the democratic newspaper shops In
IdaMo. The fearless leader that they
hailed with delight when, as an apos
tate, he left the republican party In
IS 96. they now refuse to honor. But
the man who walked out of the re
publican pary carrying at least half
of Its force with him, when kicked
out of the democratic party, carry
enough from Its strength to make
democratic victory In Idaho too re
moe for speculation. Lpwlston Teller.

A SAFE AIID RELIABLE BLOOD PURIFIER
In the time of our forefathers the forests and fields were the only labor
atories from which they could procure their medicines. They searched out
and compounded thedifferent roots, herbs and barks into remedies, many of
which have been handed down to succeeding generations, and continuously
used with satisfactory results. Among the very best of these old time prep
arations is S. S. S.. a medicine made entirely from roots, herbs and barks,
in such co.-.i'.iiiation as to make it the greatest of all blood purifiers. This
absolute vegetable purity of S. S. S. makes it the one medicine that may be
used without fear of harmful results in any way. Most blood medicines on
the market contain mercury, potash, or some other strong mineral. These
act with bad efTect on the system, upsetting the stomach, interfering with
the digestion, affecting the bowels, and when used for a prolonged period of
time often cause salivation. No such effects ever result from the use of
S. S. S , and it may be taken by children as safely as by older people. For
Rheumatism, Catarrh, Sores and Ulcers, Malaria, Sctnfula, Skin Diseases,
and all other troubles caused by impure or poisoned blood, S. S. S. is a per
fect remedy. It goes down into the circulation and removes all poisons,
impurities, humors or unhealthy matter, and makes the blood pure and rich.
It eliminates every particle of the taint of inherited blood trouble, purifies and
strengthens the weak, deteriorated blood, and establishes the foundation
for good health. S. S. S. is Nature's Blood Purifier, and its many years of
successful service, with a steadily increasing demand for it, is the best evi
dence of its value in all blood troubles. Book on the blood and any medical
advice free of charge. JHE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA, GA.
