.UNION,
TIs not the greatest, singer,
Who tries the loftiest themes,
He is the true Joy bringer,
Who tells his simplest dreams.
He Is the greatest poet,
Who wll renounce all art,
And take his heart and show It
To every other heart;
Who writes on learned riddle,
But sings his simplest tune,
Takes his heart strings for a
fiddle, .
And plays his easiest tune.

ELECTHIC LINE FRANCHISE.
Every effort to secure a system of
e'.ectrlc lines making Pendleton the
head and center, should be encourag
ed by Pendleton and especially by the
city council. Pendleton does not want
to be an annex of Walla Walla or a
station on a Walla Walla system.
She wants to be at her rightful place,
a the center of a system of .her own,
permeating all parts of Umatilla
county.
The franchise asked for by J. H.
Gwlnn as trustee for Pittsburg and
Ohio capitalists promises t o make
Pendleton the center of a system. It
1 believed that the capitalists will ac
cept the proposition when all the facts
are presented and it seems to be a
move In the right direction.
At least, it will prevent Walla Walla
capitalists from bottling Pendleton up
for a number of years.
And the granting of this franchise
should not Interfere with the electric
line proposed by Dr. Coe In the west
end of the county. There is room for
tro electric lines in the county. In
fict. it would be better to have two
systems working independently and
simultaneously In different directions
out of the city, both having this city
as their hub and center.
There should be no friction, no con
tention in this matter. Both of the
proposed systems are needed and
there Is ample room and traffic for
both. Both of these systems promise
t make Pendleton and Umatilla
county Independent of the Walla Wal
ls concern which Is now operating as
far as Milton.
Pendleton does not want to be bot
tled up for half a dozen years while
the Walla Walla system Is being
slowly extended this way, drawing
Pendleton trade to that city from
month to month while the construc
tion of the line would be dragging
along".
This is a serious and vital matter
for Pendleton to consider and If the
Pittsburg or the Coe proposition
promises to make Pendleton Indepen
dent the council should not hesitate
to grant franchises to one or both
.projects.
LAVING FOUNDATION'S.
Oregon, Idaho and Washington, the
great triumvirate of the northwest,
the three sisters of the Inter-moun-taln
region, are now in the formative
period. They are Just now laying
foundations for a future civilization
which will Burpas anything ever
known in human history.
Soil, climate, navigation, transpor
tation, all are favorable. The mar
kets of the world are waiting for then
products. The home hungry thousands
of the east are waiting for the recla
mation of their arid lands and aoon
the fruition will come.
Here and there the symetry of that
coming civilization is seen above the
surface. In the Irrigated valleys of
Idaho, Oregon and Washington, In
the great cities now being built In
those states, In the cutting down of
mountain aides and the leveling up
of waste lands all these point to the
future perfection.
Struggling reclamation project pre
sage something of the coming glory
of the northwest. The disappearing
sagebrush wastes give hints of the
coming grandeur of the three great
states. . The storage of the waste
water and the preservation of vast
forests, combine In a glorious promise
of utility which will crown that com
ing age.
As the eddying currents of a river
lay deep foundations for Islands which
In future are to rise up garlanded In
beauty, so are the various great forces
at work forming these states. Here
u river Is turned aside, there a city Is
hfounded and over yonder a waste Is
reclaimed, and ere we are aware, the
vast unused stretches of these great
states will rise up In matchless glory
for the use and edification of man
kind. We are Just now at the open gate
way of the golden age In the north
west! LESSON OF THE ALFALFA.
Teople often "kick" about their
unhappy lots nnd Imagine that they
are much abused and much burdened.
They wall about unfavorable environ
ment and go Into hysterics ov.er their
forbidding surroundings.
There Is a lesson .In two great, lux
uriant, flourishing beautiful alfalfa
plants, growing on a high, dry, sun
burnt hillside near the high school
grounds In Pendleton, which should
knock all the pessimism out of those
who look on these splendid specimens
In their forbidding environment.
All about them the hot sun has
shrlvled the "pig weed" and scalded
the life from the struggling dandelion.
The grass Is withered, the rag weed
Is sickly and pale and suffocating
dust covers the ground. It Is appar
ently more than a hundred feet to
water and all about these two rugged,
symmetrical plants Is the waste and
desolation of a sun scorched hillside.
But there they stand, green, luxuri
ant, flourishing In spite of their sur
roundings. They are heedless of the
dry hillside, unmindful of" the wither
ed "pig weed" and dandelion curled
up In early death. They do not wilt
away and waste their strength In the
hot sunshine. They are rooted deep
In the faith of life, firmly planted and
Independent In their Inhospitable en
vironment and nothing checks their
growth. Their leaves are green while
all about them Is the desolation of the
hillside. '
Here Is a lesson for unhappy men
and women. Here Is an Inspiration
for those who complain of their un
favorable environment. Here Is a
living demonstration of one of the
greatest truths In human experience:
Every human being is the master of
Its own destiny and can make or mar
its fate, as It chooses.
While all the world Is complaining
about you, keep your leaves green
and keep on growing!
A SCIENTIFIC VACATION.
While the majority of Americans
are taking vacations at seashore or
mountain, or pretending that they are
cool and comfortable In their own
darkened homes, several sturdy wise
men are going carefuly over the hills
and valleys of Wyoming In quest of a
fcur-toed horse. "
They do not travel with lasso and
running noose expecting to bring him
In as does the Texas cowboy who
ropes a wild mustang, neither will
they crate him or send him home In
a Jolting cattle or horse car. Nor will
they put him In a Zoo If he is found.
They hunt for him with pick and
shovel In the edges of overhanging
cliffs or far below the surface of the
earth. They will bring him back In o
box that would be much too small for
a Merry Widow hat. every part of him
carefully fixed In a matrix. He will
be put In a museum in a glass case
end he who runs may read that this Is
a rare and wonderful thing whose
price Is above rubles.
For you see he died something over
2,000,000 years ago, before the dawn
of the history of mankind In the
world, when this continent was still
In the making.
REMLXDERS.
In Pendleton are several reminders
of past Fourth of July celebrations.
One young man not yet at middle age
Is carrying about with him a maimed
hand as a result of a bomb explosion.
Another boy but little more than a
babe, has lost an eye from a shot
from a giant firecracker. Another
boy Is minus three fingers, the work
of a playful cannon.
These are simply reminders. It Is
terrible to start a child through life
maimed and crippled, but It Is more
terrible to think that It was maimed
by a wholly useless and nonsensical
custom which should be abolished.
So let us keep these In mind on the
Fourth of July celebration. It Is all
right to celebrate but let us be sensi
ble. Ralph Wright, son of Postmaster
Wright of South Bend, Wash., has
been arrested on the charge of em
bezzling the funds of the postofflce
department. He ha been released
on 1 2000 ball. It Is said his pecula
tion amount to over f 1000.
LIQUOH SALES IX CLTOS.
It Is desirable thatathe status of
clubs In relation to the sale of liquor
should be definitely established by de
cision of the courts, and the prosecu
tions about to bo begun In Tacoma
against the Union, Elks' Commercial
and other clubs, charged with selling
liquor to members and visitors on
Sunday, as well as the action to take
out a license, are steps In the right di
rection. The contention that the liquor kept
on hand in these clubs Is community
property, to which each member con
tributes his share when It Is purchas
ed, and that tho disposing of the liquor
;o members Is not a sale, Is challeng
ed by these prosecutions.
It Is contended that It is not the
custom In clubs for members to help
themselves or order what they want
without Individual charge.
They pay either In cash at the time
or by a system of club checks which
are taken up from time to time, the
transactions constituting a sale to all
Intents and purposes. For these rea
sons, it Is urged, there Is no good rea
son why clubs should not be under the
same restrictions and governed by
the same laws as other places where
liquor Is sold. Spokesman-Review.

BY IMPURITIES IN THE BLOOD
If Old Sores were due to outside influences, or it the cause wa confined
strictly to the diseased flesh around the ulcer, then external treatment and
simple cleanliness would cure them. But the trouble is in the blood, which
has become unhealthy and diseased, and keeps the sore open by continually
discharging into it the impurities and poisons with which the circulation is
filled. This poisonous condition of the blood may be the remains of some
constitutional trouble; the effect of a Ion? spell of sickness, or because the
natural refuse of the body, which should pass off through the preper avenues,
has been left in the system and absorbed into the blood. Again, the cause
may be hereditary ; but it does not matter how the poison becomes intrenched
in the blood, the fact that the sore will not heal is evidence of a deep underly
iag cause. Salves, -washes, lotions, etc., may cause the place to scab over
