Whoever sees the crimson sua decline With linperinsj beams aslant the smilln? lawn And hope to see again tomor row's dawn Sweep o'er the Autumn fields and flashing brine; Who look to see the harvest moonbeams shine Above the ripening vales which he had sown; Or he who. simply tossing up a stone. Awaits its fall, his faith In the Divine. We could not live apart from God. and faith. Nor seek our dally toil, our nightly sleep. As well might finny tribes de sert the deep! Or trees the soil refuse the '. Spring's Ufe-breath! We eat and sleep by faith. We sow and reap In Him had trust for something after death. John Barrow. GROVER CLEVELAND. Grover Cleveland, whom historians will designate as one of the gTeat Americans, Is dead. For a decade he has held the unique position and en Joyed the unique distinction of being the only living American ex-presldent. But death has leveled him to the wiuaiiiy oi me au?i auu uiuy uta rec ord remains. Graver Cleveland was not a man to wa no adventurer, no politiclal sol dier of fortune. He was a staid, con servative, tenacious statesman with fixed Ideas which nothing short of a miracle could change. He never could have done what Roosevelt his done. It was not In bU nature to go out into new fields, to .initiate startling Innovations, but nl:b commonplace conditions he could grapple with a m.isterful mind and hand. While the most disastrous of mod ern financial panics marked his ad ministration, yet it was not of his making. He met It as best he could ii' Jll llltr L.I LU I ff.jnica miLi nut, th as over an 3 his work done, many of fcis former opponents declared that he was right an that his policy was b. st. The pai.ic was forced upon Cleve land. His political opponents handled the avnuf-s of tra 1 exchange and production and tii'y combined to cre ate a panic in or i-r to discredit Cleve land and his policies, but his master ful mind and energy met the situation br .v.iy an 3 to-lay he ranks as a states man of the first order.

The San Francisco .Star Is worrying about the coming senatorial election In Oregon. It doubts the election of Governor Chamberialn by the repub lican legislature. Now don't you worry about Oregon, brother. These republicans In the leg islature have given their sacred pledge and word to honor as neighbors, re publicans and public servants that they will vote for the people's choice and they will do It. The East Ore gonlan will vouch for their Integrity, The election Is over. The people did It. The Star says: There are predictions that the re . publican legislature of Oregon will violate the word of Its membera, given to the people, and refuse to elect Gov mop Chamberlain ,a democrat, to the senate. There are some men In Oregon and . bae where who say that the republican legislators should not vote for a demo crat. Hut why not? Mr. Cake. Governor Chamberlain's opponent, agreed to abide by the decision of the voters a between him and the governor. The large majority of the legislators are men who agreed, when nominated and (Hiring the campaign, to vote for the candidate receiving the majority of the popular vote. If the majority preferred Chamber lain, that was their right. Will the Vsis'.ators embezzle power? TRAGEDY OF THE IiAW. Over In Union county one of the most heartrending legal tragedies In the history of Oregon has been drag ging through the courts for the past 15 years and now an aged widow, left alone and helpless. Is making on more feeble effort to recover some small pittance of a once magnificent fortune owned by herself and husband. Fred Nodine of Union, once owned thousands of acres of land, several thousand head of cattle and a thous and head of horses and was the wealthiest man in the county. Him self and wife worked hard, saved and economized and accumulated this for tune by good management and good judgment. Finally they became entangled In the- law through security debts which they were forced to pay for others uuring the hard times of the early nineties, and as the case progressed slowly through the courts, the fortune dwindled uivtll finally an assignment was made for the benefit of creditors and the old people' were stripped of everything but a small cottage in Union. . The East Oregonlan has the utmost respect for the Judicial system of the state and honors the courts of Justice. It believes that courts are fair and honest and that laws are made to protect the rights of Individuals, but when It witnesses such a tragedy as this In a land of liberty, Justice and muality its thinking, apparatus Is clogged with Interrogation points. RE AX ENTHUSIAST. "A man must be an optimist to suc ceed," says William H. Taft, republi can presidential candidate. That Is one statement by Mr. Taft with which even democrats' will have to agree, says the Spokane Chronicle. No man need expect to make a complete success without being an enthusiast a sane, clear headed en thusiast, not a scatter-brained emo tional vlsslonary. To the man who is reasonably op timistic, well balanced anu suie enough of himself of the Justice of his aims, of the healthfulness of his own ambitions and ideals the public will intrust much. To the man who Is soured on life. pessimistic, gloomy and distrustful of both his own ability and the future, the people, very rightly, trust little or nothing. He Is as bad as the imprac tical visionary. Cheer up if you want to amount to anything in the world. UMATILLA AM) THE SEA. While Umatilla county lies a hund red leagues inland and never gets a smell of the salt sea winds, yet the ocean traffic, the deepening of the Columbia river bar and the Increasing exportations from the port of Port land are all fascinating subjects for Umatilla county people. The facility with which wheat may be exported from Portland is a vital subject on the Umatilla county farm. Every cent taken from the freight charges is a cent in the pockets of Umatilla farmers, and therefore this county rejoices to Bee the water on the bar deepening and widening; she rejoices to see the exports from Port- ?nd increasing and the markets or he world more insistent for Umatilla county products. The ocean listens for the "Message of the Umatilla:" Go, winged messenger! At ocean's feet The tribute of her loyal lanasmen lav! We feel the promptings as her pulses beat And hear her voice a leagues away! hundred With over 60 new combined har vesters ready for work in Umatilla county, It does not look like a short wheat crop. There are over 300 ma chines now owned in this county and new orders are being received every day. It la strange that .the same farmer who will tell the newspapers a gloomy and pessimistic story about the crop shortage will buy a $2500 threshing outfit on the same day. Aside from Lane county, which gave UL M. Cake 659 plurality In the sen sorial race, Umatilla county la the banner republican county with a plu rality of z4 for Mr. Cake. If wishes wer automobile nobody would have to dodge. INDUSTRIAL VALUE OF THE HOMELY SUM-LOWER. The sunflower Is one of the most valuublo crops that can be grown In out. of the way spots of the garden. There is nothing about the plant that does not serve some good purpose. The seeds are eagerly sought by everything In the poultry yard. Fowls fatten upon them, and the hens al ways furnish more eggs when given access to sunflower seed. Horses eat the seed and leaves from the plant and cattle devour the stalks If mixed with the forage, ration.. Commercial oil comes from the seed, and several mills are worked every year to sup plv the demand for the oil. It takes the place of some lubricants anil forms a portion of fat-making foods. Children eat sunflower seed with a relish. There ae three distinct varieties of the sunflower. The one In general use Is the Jumbo. It forms a large head and supplies many seeds. While the flowers are In blossom they are sought by the bees from far nnd near. It Is claimed that the presence of many sunflowers keeps the malarial troubles away from a neighborhood. Following the Jumbo comes Afri can or Giant variety. It is a novelty nnd adds much beauty to a garden or lawn. Single specimens of this flower have been grown that mea sured nine feet In circumference. Then conies the White Beauty sort, which Is grown for ornamental pur poses. It ripens white seeds which are rich In nutriment. Sunflowers may be grown In any spot that requires beautifying. They do not require much cultivation, and i will crowd into close quarters. They may be planted as border flowers along a walk or In the corners of the lot or yard. If grown In rows they may stand nbout four feet apart. In the autumn when the seeds are ripe the heads can be cut and put away for feeding purposes. Sunflower seeds can be had at any store where garden seeds are sold. They generally sell In packages for ten cents. One pound costs about twenty-five cents. That will be onoveh to plant one-fifth of an acre. June Is n good time for planting sun flower seed. If the soil Is rich and plenty of cultivation Is given to hurry the plants along to maturity. A PILGRIM SONG. An, litte Inn of Sorrow, What of thy bitter bread? What of thy ghostly chambers. So I be sheltered? 'TIs but for a night, the firellgh't That gasps on thy cold hearthstone; Tomorrow my load and the open road And the far light leading on! At. little Inn of Fortune, What of thy blazing cheer, Where glad thro' the pensive evening Thy bright doors beckon clear? Sweet sleep on thy balsam-pillows. Sweet wine that will thirst assauge Put send me forth o'er the morning earth Strong for my pilgrimage! Ah. distant End of the Journey, What If thou fly my feet? What If thou fade before me In splendor wan and sweet? Still the mystical city lureth The quest Is the good knight's part; And the pilgrim wends thro' the end of the ends Toward a shrine and a Grail In his heart. Charlotte Wilson in the July Scrib ner. KIPLING TO FIGHTING HOIJ. Several years ago Rudyard Kipling sent a set of his works to Admiral Evans. With the books were these line; Zogbaum draws with a pencil, And I do things with a pen, But you sit up in a conning tower, Bossing eight hundred men. Zogbaum takes care of his business, And I takes care of mine, But you take care of ten thousand tons. Sky-booting through the brine. Zogbaum can handle his shadows, And I can handle my style. But you can handle a ten-inch gun To carry seven mile. To him that hath shall be given, And that's why these books are sent To the man who has lived more stories Than Zogbaum or I can Invent. ItOSE TIME. It Is Rose Time It Is June Time! Hear the lark adown the dell Singing sweet In tuneful measures Summer songs he loves so well; All the world Is full of blossoms, All the gardens sweet with bloom; It is Rose Time it is June Tlmel South winds, breathe your sweet per fume! Roses blush along the highways; Roses red by garden walls; Roses white, so pure and stately, Blossom where the sunlight falls Golden roses glow like sunset; Roses pink like coral fire; It Is Rose Time It Is June Time: Love and beauty heart's desire! Sweden Is sending to the United 8tates for some of her sons who have forsaken her and have made a success of careers in this country. John Eric son, city engineer of Chicago for the last 10 years, has been asked to take the office of director of public works in Stockholm at a salary of 17000 a year, with house rent free. Mr. Eric son was graduated from the Royal Polytechnic Institute of Stockholm and came to this country 28 years ago. For four years after landing he en tered the service of Chicago and has been active In shaping It engineering affair ever since. PURELY VEGETABLE GREATEST OF ALLTONICS Very few persons are able to pass the Spring season with any Jegree of physical comfort, without the aid of a tonic. Our systems ;hange with the changing seasons, and more is required of the blood, 'rom which source our bodies receive their nourishment and strength, it this particular season than at others. During the cold Winter months we do not exercise as freely as in warmer weather, the skin is not as active in removing the waste and refuse matter, and the other avenues of drainage are dull and sluggish hi their work. Thus the impurities which should pass off are left in the system, and are absorbed into the blood. Then Spring comes and all nature takes on new life, we change jur mode of living, and greater demands are made on the blood foi lourishment and strength to enable us to meet the changed conditions 5tit the Winter accumulations have polluted the blood and destroyed its rjtritive qualities to such an extent that it is not able to supply the creased needs of the system, and . v. : . Our physical machinery seems o cet "out of gear," and suffers jm debility, weakness, nervous i:ss, loss of appetite, etc. Sleep ? not refreshing, there is a con ..nt worn-out feeling, and we do ,A feci equal to performing the rdinary duties of daily life. When the system is in thisdis ;Jcred condition it must have distance; it must be aided with a )!iic, and it should be a medicine hich has the additional qualities f a first-class blood purifier, for to ;:ore health the blood must be nsed of all impurities. S. S. S. is the best Spring ::ic, and it is recognized as the ki-jst and best blood Durifier. It is -.j:le entirely of roots and herbs of the forests and fields, and as it does jt contain the slightest trace of mineral in any form, is especially lapted for a systemic remedy, and has the additional value of being .jsolutely safe for young or old. S. S. S. re-establishes the healthy irculation of the blood, rids the body of that run-down, worn-out feel v improves the appetite and digestion, and brings about a return of and strength to those whose systems have been weakened and cpieted. S. S. S. acts more promptly and satisfactorily than any medicine, and those who are beginning to feel the need of a tonic ) fortify themselves against the unpleasant conditions which come with jpring, should commence its use at once. Not only will it tone up he system, but it will remove any humor from the blood, and prevent an outbreak of Eczema, Acne, Tetter, Poison Oak, Poison Ivy, or other skin disease or eruption, which is so common at this season. S. S. S. is for sale at all drug stores. THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA, GA. TOO MUCH rOR THi: LINOTYPES Japanese "typos" have their trou bles. K. Suglmura, literary editor of the Tokyo Ashal Shlmbun, says that he especially admires linotype type setting machines. "Unforyunatt'iy we are unable to use them in Japan for our language has 4" hitters as well as over 3000 Chinese characters. and such a number of types, Is of course, beyond the capabilities of any machine yet Invented. In the print ing office of our newspaper in Tokio the compositor must often walk the whole length of the room to fetch one character. Instead of standing In one place before a single case, as the English or American compositor can do." RUSTING THE EYES.

This is particularly good when close applica tion Is necessary. "Hut," someone complains, "one looks so silly sitting In an office or store with the eyes shut. Besides wo would soon get called down for laziness. " It Is not necessary to make this eye resting process conspicuous. It Is perfectly possible to choose odd moments when no one is looking to drop the eyelids for a minute and not to select the moment when the chief is giving some Important direction or Is dictating his morning letters. Almost as restful as closing the eyes, however, Is the habit of occa sionally lifting them from book or paper and looking In to Bpace for a short time.
