Had you thought of the fact that there was but one "new" official In ducted Into office on July 1, the be ginning of the official year? With the exception of Representative L. L. Mann, all of the officials were old officials re-elected for the second, third or fourth term. In the Umatilla-Morrow county leg islative district. T. J. Mahoney took office as joint representative, but Representative Mann was the only ab solutely new official In Umatilla county. This Is a unique record for the county and perhaps stands unequaled in eastern Oregon. . Among the second termers now serving in Umatilla county are District Attorney G. W. Phelps, County Treas urer Bradley. Recorder Hendley, Cor oner Folsom. Superintendent Frank K. Welles and Representative Bar rett. The third-termers are Commission er Horace Walker, County Clerk Frank Saling and Assessor C. P. Strain. Sheriff Taylor is now serving his fourth term and the Lord only knows how Ion? J. W. Kimbrell has beon county surveyor of Umatilla county. T. H r.-c -r 1 .-peaks for the officials interested. They have rroved to be efficient, honest and trustworthy and the county profit? by their long con tinued service. PLANS FOR A REST ROOM. The hot season Is now on and country people coming to Pendleton to trade feel the need of a cool, quiet p'.ncf -hr thv miy sit down undis turbed for a few moments to rest after finishing their shopping. It seems that the churches, the Commercial asociatIon or somebody with the means and organization, should -tart a movement to fit up a permanent re: ropm for the accom modation of Pendleton's friends. Women and children cannot sit In stores r,r toft drink parlors. They cannot walk the streets on these hot day after their shopping is done and while waiting for a train. A place fitted up especially for them with ats, lavatory, toilet, tables and drink ing water should be provided. Nothing would be more appreciated by the country people than this sort of a convenience. Nothing would be Oi more credit to Pendleton than to prepare such a place. HOW LA C.R NI)E GOT EVEN. Shorty after the recent election in which Union county voted prohibition by about 600 majority, the Fourth of July celebration committee of La Grande started out to collect a fund for a celebration. The committee called on the lead ing buslne3 men of the city and was met with a heirty response until fi nally a saloonman was asked to con tribute a mite to the fund. Then the Fourth of July committee got the rlproaringlst roasting and loudest round of abuse and rllllflca- tlon that ever startled the quiet at mospheric peace of the best town. This saloonman called a number of his fellow roasters together and slng .Ijr and collectively they abused the Fourth of July committee and told them that La Grande should never again hold a celebration of any event; that the. saloons had heretofore con tributed practically all of the funds for such events and that now that the saloon patronage would be withdrawn and the patriotism of the business men and people In general would wither away and dry up and Fourth of July celebrations, charity balls, Commercial association banquets and other public entertertalnments were things of the past In La Grande. Hut about this time the Fourth of July committee came to Its senses and began to get mad. And then they told the saloon men a few things which would not be suitable for publication, at least In Pendleton. But then and there the committee r solved to have the biggest, best, most entertaining, most attractive, most successful Fourth of July cele bration In the history of La Grande. And that Is what they did. The parade was the best and long est ,the music was better, the exer cises were better, the crowd was more pleasantly entertained, everything was carried out In a vigorous, business like manner and La Grande really had the best celebration in her his tory. And there wasn't a dollar of any sa loonman's money in the fund, either. The Fourth of July committee got even. prD-NT MINE COAL ENOUGII. For a while we heard reports of a sdious depression In the Pennsylvania coal districts, of cuts in prices, cuts In wages, lack of retail trade. Idle men and Idle cars, says the Spokane Chronicle. The operators, because the market was temporarily slack, curtail ed their output, instead of building up a reserve stock. Now the movement of coal to 'the Great Lakes for the markets of the west and northwest has begun in ear nest, and with the short time left this season, even pessimistic operators can admit that all of them combined will be unable to supply the demand. In other words, the country may suffer another coal shortage and an other reign of high fuel prices here next winter. In certain cases conservatism, like everything else, may be carried to such an extreme that It becomes a vice. The people of Oregon recently adopted the recall amendment to the constitution by a majority of abou 28.000. Now what are they going to do with It? Who will be the first official to be recalled by the people? This is an important and vital func tion and belongs to the people and will have much to do in improving conditions and in maintaining good government. Few men are going to risk being recalled and disgraced by the people for any reasonable consid eration. The month of July Is starting out with an excellent trade in Pendleton. There Is absolutely no change from former conditions In the mercantile line. Merchants are selling as many or more goods than ever and cash Is more plentiful than is u.-ual at this time of the year. The calamity pre dicted for the city has not yet arriv ed. And It never will arrive. Why people will stay in Chicago, St. Louis and other eastern cities and suf focate during the summer season and freeze in winter, when they could be living happily in Umatilla county, is one of the unsolved mysteries. SUCH "DI LL" TIMES. Funny times, these. We are going through a business de- Dresslon. recovering from, a panic. starting a presidential campaign, rais ing eight billion dollar crops, going Into a S600.000.000 foreign steel com bine; adding to our billion dollar gold pile; lending money at lower rates than any other country; sending mil lions to Europe for pastime; produc ing more coal than England and Ger many together: sailing a big fleet around the world: digging the most expensive canal on the hemisphere; cutting a 1760.000,000 hay crop; put ting out several million dollars worth of new railroad bonds; shipping 200.- 000,000 bushels of wheat to hungry foreigners; raising 700,000,000 bush els of wheat: losing gross earnings at the rate of S500.000.000 a year, and piling up a treasury deficit bigger than that of any other nation In the world. And yet they call these dull times. Spokane Chronicle. It Was a Draw. On a bench In city park two tramps sat In the sun and blamed national, state and municipal administrations for everything to which blame could be attached. They were strangers, but because of the fellowship which exists among their kind, exchanged views freely. "Well," said the first, "I haven't always been a tramp. I used to be a linotype operator." "Is that so?" queried the second. "Why, I used to be a proofreader." The policeman who separated them said It was the worst flsht he ever saw. Bhop Talk of - Denver News Times Chapel.

Clark of Utah, the only woman delegate to the national republican convention, Is 5S years old and the mother of 11 children. ' She brought the photographs of eight of them to the convention. Mrs. Susa Gates, the other woman who was elected as an alternate, is the mother of 13. Mrs. Clark is by no means the first woman to enjoy the distinction of being a delegate to a natonal conven tion. In 1900 Mrs. W.'H. Jones was sent as-a delegate to the national republi can convention in Philadelphia, and) Mrs. Elizabeth Cohen to the demo cratic convention In Kansas city. Both were from Utah and served through the sessions. This Is the first In stance of the kind on record, al though women were sent as alternates from Wyoming to the national repub lican convention at Minneapolis In 1S8S. HOW TO KEEP COOL. Don't get excited. Don't worry. Don't drink beer or any alcoholic drinks. Wear light clothing weight and color. Drink plenty of water. Eat fruit and vegetables. Eat little meat. Bathe freely. Be temperate In all things... Use common sense. Chicago Ex aminer, i What Dairying Will Do. During the month of June the amount of cream brought in by the farmers of the vicinity of Pullman averaged something better than $400 a week or $1600 or more for the month, says the Pullman Tribune. At the Hazlewood station the largest checks ranged from S35 to SS2 per month. Among those who received these checks were Walter Glasyey, Willis Ford. J. H. Maston. Mrs. L. Gregg, H. H. Curtis and Thos. Hal pin. Mr. Glaspey has a fine herd of grade Jerseys that are making an extra fine showing. Willis Ford's herd s of a pure bred Holsteln strain W. G. Shirk, a new recruit In the dairy Industry, has a number of Guernseys that are exceedingly prom ising. H. T. Llngg Is also a Guernsey advocate and contemplates the pur chase of a pure bred sire of this breed. A. M. Blbens ef Johnson, who shipped the first can of cream from this section of the county, Is now in California purchasing a number of pure bred Holsteln heifers, as his herd Is of this strain. Quite a num ber of farmers are planning the pur chase of pure bred stock after har vest and the next few years should witness the production of much fine dairy stock In this vicinity. A Bold Step. .

The man who lives till ho Is more than a century old and the child who dies in Infancy are alike Included In the law of averages. They balance each other's chances, as It were. Of 100.000 people living at the age of 10, only 95,614 will Itve at the age of 21, only 82.284 will be living at 40, only 49 will be living at 96, and Who Pays the BilU? Did vou over ask yourself who rcallv ihiv tin4 advert isiui; hills I Iy this we mean who actually foots the hills a- a' for publicity of business firms and others who purchase space in the newspapers i Your first impulse, of course, is to reply that the advertiser pays them. ut this is not the ease. The advertiser incurs no real expense in the matter, for the cost of his advertisement is, as a rule, returned to him in largely increased profits. Then who does pay the hills ? The purchaser? . Xo; certainly not. The purchaser profits by the advertisinir, for he buys cheaper ami pets a fresher and better assortment of poods. Who, then, pays the merchant's advertising bills? Why, the merchant who docs not seek newspa per publicity. The man who draws himself into his shell, like the snail, and declines all induce ments to advert ise. The non-advertiser foots the advertiser's bills, as a larpe proportion of the money he loses through his lack of nerve and en terprise finds its way, directly or indiri'ctly, into the pockets of his more business-like competi tor. The snail-like merchant ''pays ihe freight" in another way. for his stock depnviates and event ually ha !!!: like lead on his hands until disaster stares him in the face. These are days when all men who would suc ceed must advertise, and those who do not are almost, certain to fall by the wayside. Fourth Kr-tHte.
