In the meantime let every member of the legislature remember that not only his own honor , but the honor of the state is at stake. not be required fight for such an institution. COMPENSATION. For every man who leaves Umatill ccunty because the county has gone "dry" there will be two or three new settlers come In to stay. For every man who knocks the county because of the prohibition vote there will be dozens of staunch supporters and ad vceates of the principle make em pbatlc reply. Every emergency has Its compen sating features. For every saloon man who, unfortunately, will be fore ed to leave the city and county, there will be dozens of excellent people come In to engage In Industries upon which the ban of the law is not set Already instances of people coming here on account of the prohibition vote are being noted. The East Ore gonian will make special note of such cases and hopes to be able to publish a list of actual settlers who come here because the county has at last been voted "dry," Many of such people are coming. Thereis no doubt about it. They believe In that prin ciple and they know that this Is a good county and V there is every in ducement for them to come. The ultimate benefits will be largely In favor of Pendleton and Umatilla county. There Is no doubt about it. j. LEGISLATURE IS HONEST. Although reports of attempts to bribe members of the legislature on the senatorial election this early after the general election are being circu lated, yet the East Oregonian has faith in the legislature elected and be lieves that every man will do as he has agreed to do with his constituents. Every republican who has agreed with his neighbors and friends to support the people's choice for United States senator will vote for the peo ple's choice.' It may be a bitter piil f t many a vote for a senator belong ing to an opposite party, but if that member of an opposite party is the people's choice, that settles it. The people should and will rule. Coming back to the question of bribing legislators in the senatorial election, it is natural that every one should ask who Is interested In break ing the ranks of the statement No. 1 members? Who Is Interested In thwarting the will of the people? Who is it that Is counciling a revolt against the people? Is It the miserable wretch who Is used as a stool pigeon and . go-between or is it somebody higher up? What will It benefit the corrupt parasite who is conducting the ne gotiations? He expects no honor, no position, no advancement. He simply wants a few dollars of the corrup tion fund. Then who Is at the bottom of this attempt to disrupt the legislature and aet aside the will of the people? It la somebody who hope to profit by It, politically, of course. Somebody who hopes to be hit by the senatorial lightning in the open fight In the legis lature. So let us watch and be still. The real culprit will show his hand sooner MOKE FOlt PENDLETON. The new taw permitting state Insti tutions to be located away from the state capital will give Pendleton a branch of the state Insane asylum In time. , This climate Is especially adapted to the needs of the Insane, especially those suffering with certain classes of ailments and it would be not only economical for the state to locate a branch here to accommodate the vast territory east of the Cascades, but it would be an act of mercy and good horse sense to" place a branch here In a climate which would cure, instead of aggravate mental weaknesses of spe cific classes. This city being the logical location for the eastern Oregon asylum should to put up a strong The leg islature should see the need for such and should also recognize the scientific reasons for locating a branch In a mild and Invigorating climate which In curing many of the unfortunates. Pendleton should begin early to present her claims for this state in stitution. The present asylum Is crowded to the limit of Its capacity, the climate at Salem Is death to many who would perhaps recover In a dif ferent climatic condition, and there are dozens of reasons wny a Dig branch of the state Insane asylum should be located here within the next two years. It would save thousands of dollars per year In traveling expenses and would keep eastern Oregon Insane In this part of the state, thus making it more convenient and less expensive for relatives to visit them and would be helpful from a scientific stand point. Physicians of the asylum could then assign Inmates to the climatic condi tion suited .to them and thus aid in curing many who would otherwise pass a few miserable years In the asylum and die after all for want of nature's simplest remedy climate. 11.3a for a package of like weight mailed by their eastern competitors, Hundreds of berry pickers, alfalfa pitchers, harvest huiids will be needed in Umatilla county within the next ftw weeks. The click of the shocp shears scarcely stops In the spring before the click of the mowing ma chine and the combine harvesters sl.iris. It is the perpetual motion of industry In a good country. LOVE SONNETS OF A COWliOY. The other night the Two-Bar gave a dance, And she was there, a shlnln' star all right, Not dressed to kill, but Jest in sim ple white, And yet, you bet, she breathed of elegance; You oughter seen her wjien some puncher 'd prance Right up and try to git off somp'n bright; She'd sling her noose of talk Jest out of sight, Calf-ropln' didn't seem a happen stance! And when she danced It looked to me A purty flower .swayln' on the plain When some cool breeze has come I'm off the hills; I didn't dast to nst her fer a hike Around the floor with me 'twould set my brain A whlt-lln' round Jest like a herd that mills! Denver Republican. WILL HELP MERCHANTS. The Spokesman-Review is in favor of the parcels post, which has been urged by Postmaster General Meyer and gives some excellent reasons why the law should be passed for the ben efit of the country consumer and the small merchant. Reviewing the ques tion In detail, the Spokane paper says: Postmaster General Meyer asserted with truth a:id reason in his report to the senate on March 4 last, that the proposed rural parcels post would bt nefit "the farmer, the country mer chant and other patrons of the route." False and Juggling attempts are made by the bix express companies to re fute that logical assertion, but wlth- ut convincing effect. Under the present postal laws, big catalogue houses in eastern cities have cut Into the trade of the country mer chant to a discouraging extent. In building up this trade they have used both the malls and the express lines. The proposed rural parcels post will go far to restore this lost business to the country merchant. It proposes a general postal rate of 12 cents a pound on packages weigh ing up to 11 pounds, but It also pro- Ides and here I where the country merchant Is benefited for a special low postal rate over all rural routes merchandise mailed at the post- office at which the rural route starts. This special rate Is 5 cents for the first pound and 2 cents for each ad ditional pound up to 11 pounds. The country merchant could take advan tage of this special low rate; the big catalogue houses could not. The country merchant could mall out an 11-pound package for 25 cents; the eastern competitor would have to pay the high rate of J1.32 on an 11 pound package. The differential In advantage of the country merchant has been shown to be ample. Under the proposed parcels post law he certainly could recapture a large part, If not all, of the business which has been taken fzom him by the catalogue houses under existing postal lawB. The rural free delivery service has been built up to a great system. In Whitman county, this state, for ex ample, there are 32 rural free deliv ery routes running out of 17 towns, as follows: Colfax and Palouse, four each; Gar field, Pullman and St. John, three each; Farmtngton, Oakesdale and Rosalia, two each; and one each to Albino, Coltonji Elbertan, Endlcott, La Crosse, Sunset, Tekoa, Thornton and Unlontown, What better service could the Whit man county merchants desire than this? A dally delivery to patrons miles away In the country, and Uncle Sam charging only 26 cents for an 11 pound package, aa against a charge of APPLES CUKE INSOMNIA. A medical writer declares that the apple Is such a common fruit that very tew persons become familiar with its medicinal properties, says the Pathfinder. The best thing Just he fore going to bed, he says. Is to tat an apple. "Persons uninitiated In the mysteries of the fruit," he continues, "are likely to throw up their hands in horror at the visions of dyspepsia which such a suggestion may sum mon up, but no harm can come, to even a delicate system by the eating of a ripe and Juicy apple before going to bed. The. apple is excellent bialn food, because It has more phosporlc acid in easily digested shape than any other fruit. It excites the action of the liver, promotes sound and heal- they sleep and thoroughly disinfects the mouth. This Is not all: the ap ple prevents indigestion and throat diseases." CURES i tit nnn ni-ITCmT A SAFE HOME TREATMENT In S. S. S. nature has provided a certain, afe, home curt for Contagious Blood Poison. It is a medicine made entirely of roots and herbs of recog nized blood-purifying value, and is the one medicine which is able to get down to the root of the trouble and remove every particle of the virtu, and at the same time benefit and build up the system and general health. No harmful elFcvts ever follow its use, as is so often the case when strong min eral medicines are used. As soon as the system gets under the Influence of S S. S the disease begins to improve, and when the remedy Has inorougmy purified the blood and driven out every trace of the poison, no signs of the trouble are ever seen again. The general manifestations of Contagious Blood Poison such as falling hair, copper -colored spots, ulcerated mouth and throat, sors and ulcers, etc., are merely symptoms of the poisoned condi tion of the blood, and in most cases respond quickly to local treatment, while S. S. S. is doing the necessary work of cleansing the blood. Our 'Home Treatment" book is of great assistance along this line. It is a complete g:iii!e for treating the trouble, containing instructions for the different stYy-'S of the disease, and also valuable suggestions about the local treatment, 1 hat will be most helpful in effecting a cure. We will be glad to send u c py of this book, free of charge, to any who desire it, and if special mcd cal advice is wanted our physicians will take pleasure in sup plying it w Stout cost to the patient. If you are suffering with Conta gious Blood Poison you can cure yourself in the privacy of vour own home by the use of S. S. S., an absolutely safe remedy.

Hi) CHINESE TO STUDY FORESTRY. China's first school of forestry win shortly be opened at Mukden. The Chinese empire Is usually pointed out as the worst example, among modern nations, of forest destruction. The floods which are periodically poured down from the denuded mountains are destructive beyond comparison with any other country and the want of forests is assigned as the chief cause. .Wootf is scarcer In China than In almost any other region In the world, although the country Is well I adapted to the growing of trees.
