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.

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

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

ministration, yet it was not of his
making. He met It as best he could

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!

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

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.

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."

Instant many times a day. 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.
