THE EI.ECTUU' I.IXE MARVEL. If every member of Pendleton I'uni-mt-rclal association could be Induced to take a ride on the electric line from Milton to Walla Walla, now while the truit and garden tracts along that Hue are at their height, it is safe to say It would not be two gears before such iv line were running Into Pendleton from perhaps more than one direc tion. The entire distance of 15 miles from Milton to Walla Walla is now a solid garden and fruit tract. Water has teen turned upon It, orchards have sprung up, as If by magic, In a few years, homes are being built or have been built along the entire distance, and it is really one of the most de l.ghtful and prosperous communities on the Pacific coast. Long distances in Umatilla county, down the Umatilla river to Umatilla, through the Hernilston and Echo country, north toward Helix and the Crlumbla river, can be converted Into similar settlements with homes on small tracts and four or five times the present amount of traffic availa ble. Such a line from Pendleton to Wes. ton and back by way of Wenaha Springs and Tutuilla would convert thousands of acres Into orchard and garden tracts and would bring thous r.nds of new settlers Into this rich ter rltory tributary to Pendleton. Power for such lines Is now going tc waste In the Umatilla river. Rich fi'ult land worth from $500 to 41000 per acre when covered with bearing orchards Is now being used for $25 per acre wheat crops and Pendleton is simply without the traffic which such increased settlement would create. tin ns of the county are thriving and progressive. So there Is every reason to celebrate, not In a half-hearted, peevish way. I it t In a manner befitting a communi ty of thankful and patriotic citizens who are fortunate in being residents of one of the best cities und counties of the greatest Pacific coast state. Put If we do not celebrate, then let us help the neighboring county towns to celebrate. Let us fill Helix, Pilot Rock, Hernilston, Milton and other towns of the county with crowds of enthusiastic Pendleton people. Let us make them feel that their optimism and patriotism are appreciated. If there Is nny word with n keener and more cruel edge than that of the word Ingratitude, In human language, It has not yet been discovered. Hatred you can combat ;anger you can ap pease; abuse you can retaliate upon; deceit you can watch for and avoid; but Ingratitude Is the one unpunisha ble and unpunished sin. Neither heart nor hand nor brain can make reply to Its wanton cruelty. 'OXE SAD DAY." BEST YEAR FOR INDIANS. While we are boasting of the pro gress of the public and private schools and of the progress being made In the education of the white children of Umatilla county, we forget that the best year for the Indian children of the Umatilla reservation is also Just closing. Under the excellent management of Mijor A. E. McFatridge, the Umatilla Indian agency school has made more progress during the past year than ever before and the attendance has been larger than ever. also. The Indian children show more ad vancement, the attendance has been more regular and the general condi tions of the agency schools have been tvetter during the past year than ever. The excellent showing is due to the 8-::led conditions on the reservation and to the absence of factional and personal difficulties which have al ways curs1 the reservation manage ment Agent McFatridge has simply brought order out of chaos and the people of Pendleton and of Umatilla -county appreciate his practical work among the Umatilla Indians. THE REWARD. MASONRY AND THF. WEST. The excellent oration on the sym bols of Masonry, delivered by Grand Orator H. W. Scott of the Oregon srand lodge, at the recent session in Portland, recalls the splendid part which the Masonic order has taken in the settlement and uplifting of the Picific coast. In many of the early settlements, the pioneers org-mizej their Masonic looses, even before their churches or Ir.eir sr-hools. Hiif a dozen Masons in a r-rr.T-.u wattf-rM perhaps miles apart, would gft together and scour the country for enough to form a lodge and before anybody was aware they would be holding sessions In the upper nory of some humble home. To the pioneers the Masonic lodge was practically all the social life that was to be found. They would ride for 20, 30 or even 40 miles from their remote stock ranches, mines or moun tain settlements to take part in the Masonic lodge and to be a member was one of the highest honors that could be accredited to a pioneer. The order threw about Its moni tors a strong protection in thos early days. It stood guard over the scatter ed Interests of the pioneers, scrutiniz ed every new settler closely to find If ho was worthy, watched for thieves, gave warning of dangers and made it safe to live and own property In the remotest corner of the country. Today the country members, those living at long distances away from the centers of trade, take even greater In Vro.it in lodge work and In the order than a large part of city members. It is not uncommon In Pendleton, Echo, Helix, Milton, Union, La Grande or Baker City to sit in lodge with members who have come for miles. Every public man who dares to question the corrupt methods of the political machines of the country and who dares to throw the search light upon the actions of the machines. Is branded by the machine Interests as a traitor and a demagogue, no mat ter how high his Ideals, how honest or exalted his purposes or how faith fully he is serving the people he rep resents. The Walla Walla Union, the person al and private organ of Senator Anke ny of Walla Walla, stoops to the level of the ward bully in an attack on Senator La Follette. The attack Is made simply and solely because Sena tor La Follette placed Ankeny with the senatorial machine where he be 1' ng.-, in his various speeches on pub lic questions before the senate. Ankeny voted with the machine, trained with it, worked with it, stood with and was a part of it and Senator "'ollette was guided by Ankeny's vote and acts as recorded In the pro ceedings of the senate, and not by any personal feeling in the matter, and he did not single out Senator An keny for a special roast, but simply branded the entire machine clique In the senate as being dishonest and cor rupt. Taking Senator Li Foliette's roast of the senatorial machine as a person al attack on Senator Ankeny, presum ably because he is a part of the ma chine, the Union brands La Follette as a cheap faker, a seeker after cheap notoriety, a blatant fraud and dema gogue fit only for the lecture plat form where he may abuse "honest" public officials. This is the reward meted out to re formers for their sendee In the in U rest of the country. Everybody knows that the people of Wisconsin have found in Senator La Follette a staunch and stalwart friend and a ca pable, fearless and honest statesman or they would not have followed him from one reform to another during the past 20 years as they have done. The attack of the Union upon him, only makes it more plain that that paper Is a personal organ ready and willing to do anything to defend the machine or to further machine Inter ests. Any man who tells the truth about the "Interests" In the senate is a radical and a demagogue, In the eyes of the Union. I. One sad day when the sun's gold crown Jeweled the desolate, dreamy west.

The East Oregonlan believes that Pendleton should celebrate and It will contribute liberally to the fund for that purpose, as it has always done heretofore. It believes that Pendleton and Umatilla county have more genuine cause to celebrate this year than ever before. The county Is on the verge of Its best Industrial era. N'ew land is being made tillable. The marvel of new homes Is rising from the sage brush prairie everywhere and all the There probably could be rounded up a good many thousands of Amer icans who are firmly convinced that Mr. Roosevelt will be a presidential factor four years or eight year hence. In 1916 he will be but 58 years old, enabling him to serve two full terms and still retire at 66, still younger than many men when they f'rst aim for the presidency. Should Taft be elected next No vember he might be accorded a sec ond term without opposition. Hut in 1916 the race would be an open one and it can be put down as a moral certainty that If Mr. Roosevelt is alive at that time he will be urged for the nomination. The humiliation of Grant when he consented to stand for a third term after an Interim of four years is not likely to be a se rious deterrent. No one doubts that had Mr. Roose velt consented to adopt Jonathan Bourne's plan of a "second elective erm" he would have been the re publican nominee this year. No one but Roosevelt himself stood in the way of his election this year, and re- ieved of the pledge he felt called up on to give tne American people on lection night four years ago, there would be no good reason why he should not consent to figure In the attitude of a receptive candidate. It Is very true, of course, that imes change, and eight years from now Mr. Roosevelt may not have the hold upon the American people he has today. But If the examples of history are worth anything, "absence will make the heart grow fonder," and he will grow In public esteem. Washington Letter. TOUCHING. Soon after his first baby was born his wife went upstairs one evening and found him standing by the side of the crib and gazing earnestly at the crib. She was touched by the sight and tears filled her eyes. Her arms stole softly around his neck as she nes tled her cheek caressingly against his shoulder. He started slightly at her touch. "Darling," he murmured dreamily. "Yes?" she said softly. "What I was going to say Is, It Is Incomprehensible to me how they can possibly get up such a crib as that for seven-and-six." London Times.

The United States, it seems, will have a chance to take a large block of n desirable foreign security with out sending away uny cash for the purchase, for the steel trust may mar ket the bonds to American investors, The main beauty of the scheme la that the bonds may be forced up above the price at which the steel trust takes them for trade, and the trust, besides making a fat profit on the rails, will make a nice commis sion on the bonds.
