No wr.ithful wrecks of yester- day Shall shut the sunlight from my face; Nor bar my. upward-climbing way Nor trammel me In my soul- race. Done deeds are dead. Let those who will Falter and fall before old ghosts; For me the sweet, exultant thrill Of marching with the con- querlng hosts. 4 For me no dreaming doubtful dreams. Nor pondering on goal defeat. Before me lies the road which glaims With all Its triple-millioned feet. That bravely strive unceasingly To reach that far tall-towered height. Whereon the sun shines daz- slingly And where there is no bitter night. 4 No hand may help, no word may cheer, But by whatever Gods there be Within my heart there lurks no fear, And I shall wrest the victory! Lucius Withers In Harper'3. 4 4 44444444444444 WHERE X)IP HE GET IT? Rev. Andreas Bard of Walla Walla, Is out In an Interview in the Walla Walla Bulletin saying that during a recent visit to Oregon he was able to secure all the "booze" he desired In a "dry" town of this state. He de clares that all that was necessary for him to do to secure any quantity of whiskey was to make It known that he was "all right" and the booze was forthcoming, at double price, as a rare luxury now. Now the East Oregonian Is going to ask Rev. Bard a few pointed ques tions, as one citizen to another. If Rev. Bard secured whiskey In a "dry" town in Oregon he is a party to lawbreaking In Oregon. Why did he do It? If he knows where whiskey is sold In prohibition territory In Oregon, Is It not his duty as a common citizen, much more a minister of the gospel, to Inform the officials and stop the practice? Does Rev. Bard wish to encourage lawbreaking by patronizing the blind pigs and keeping their whereabouts a secret? Will he inform the officers of the law In Oregon where this "blind pig" Is located? What will he do when Washington goes "dry"? As he did in Oregon? WHO HAS CHANGED FRONT? Frank Davey, editor of the Harney County News, and one of the leading republican politicians of Oregon, says of the division of the republican party and Its change of front on the popular election of United States senators: In 1895 and 1898 the leading men who are the loudest now In the abuse of Bourne and others were the most ardent advocates of the bimetallic heresy, and they laid the groundwork then for all the Ills which the party has suffered since. The same Influence operating In Multnomah, Clatsop, Marlon and Lane counties, followed up later with com binations with the democrats whereby legislative majorities were secured and United States senators were elect ed, and In 1901, thinking that the tidal wave of popularity was flowing In their favor, the same men placed a law upon the statute books embody ing In solemn legal text the full prin ciples of statement No. 1, which now appears so hateful to them. Let us give a list of the state sen ators who formulated n4 voted for that law for the selection of United States senators by popular vote, in or der to Illustrate what we mean, and it was the very first bill Introduced that? session: Adams of Marlon, Brownell of Clackamas, Cameron of Jackson, Clem (Horn.) of LlnnDlmmick of Coos, Hunt of Multnomah, Inman (Pern.) of Multnomah, Johnston of Wasco, Josephl of Multnomah, Kelly of Linn, Kuykendall of Lane, Looney of M; Hon, M.irsters of Douglas, Mays (au thor of the bill) of Multnomah, Mor row (Pern.) of Morrow, Mulkey of Folk, Porter of Clackamas, Proebstel of Umatilla, Stelwer of Wheeler, Sweek (Dm.) of Multnomah, Weh- rung (Pern.) of Washington, William son of Crook, and Mr. President (Sen ator Fulton). The only vote against Jhe bill was John D. Daley of Benton, and every one of the republican members above listed except Cameron, Joseph!, John ston and Mulkey were and are now allied with the forces that are cursing statement Xo. 1. IWIK PKEMll'MS ATTRACTIVE. The premium list for the Umatilla Morrow county fair Is now out and farmers, stockmen and manufactur es of the district will find many offers there to attract them to make their best efforts. The increased premiums for wheat yields, livestock, diversified farming products and other common commod ities of the district should bring out a magnificent display this fall. What has been lacking In former f.iirs, is a great big. appropriate dis play of wheat. Strangers who have visited the fair have looked for some adequate display of threshed wheat In Umatilla county, the boasted wheat county of Oregon, but so far they have failed to find It. There should be tons of threshed wheat In Jars, and Jars as big as bar rels. People want to see wheat. They have heard of Umatilla's wheat rec ord but they have found nothing ade quate In the fair displays. Let us make the 1908 (air the big gest, best and most attractive In the history of the district. The resources are here. The funds are available. The pavilion Is appropriately and con veniently arranged. Let us bring the exhibit together and surpass everything In the fair line ever seen In eastern Oregon. It would be an especially notable triumph for Umatilla and Morrow county to hold the best agricultural fair on this dry year, when other sections of the coun try are complaining of short crops and diminished output of agricultural pro ducts. HARNESSING THE WINDS. Denmark, a low country lying be tween two seas, has plenty of wind, and It Is utilizing it on a scale that has never been equaled before. Wind mills have been used for time out of mind to pump water and to grind grain. Their appropriation to the unlimit ed power rushing by them has been restricted, as it has not been possible to store the power or to combine ef fectively the force of several wind mills or make the hurricane's surplus energy do duty In days of calm. Those defects are cured by convert ing the wind power Into electricity and equalizing its use through the storage battery. Denmark Is takirrg advan tage of this to convert Its wind power Into electric power for commercial purposes. It is stated that-a wind of 15 miles an hour will produce eight-horse pow er, and that a 20-mile gale will devel op 18-horse power. As the power of many windmills can be concentrated and made to serve a Bingle plant, there is Infinite possibility In this re source In any section blessed with fre quent winds of considerable force. The United States has abundant wind-swept territory. The seashores, prairies and highlands everywhere have an unlimited supply of this force. It can be converted Into electric power and combined and stored for use as readily here as In Denmark. The utilization of this wind power would lessen the drain on our dimin ishing wood and coal supplies, and supplement the water power as a means of furnishing the land with electric energy for commercial pur poses. BILLIONS IN SWAMPS. If it was both good statesmanship and good business to annex far-off, frozen Alaska at a cash outlay of $7,000,000, what Is to be said of a plan that will add to the very heart of the national domain lands that, measured In productive capacity, equal the combined arable areas of the fertile states of Ohio, Indiana and Illi nois for an Investment of nothing -t all? If it paid to wait many years for returns upon that Investment in the northwest, how much more profitable will It be to receive an Immediate In come of more than a billion a year from the home enterprise? So writes C. F. Carter In the Technical World Magazine. These conundrums have been pro pounded to the congress In the guise of several bills providing comprehen sive plans for the drainage of the swamp lands of the country by the national government at the ultimate expense of the settlers thereon. According to the estimates of the geological survey there are 78,47.1.700 acres of swamps and overflowed lands In the United States. Unofficially some engineers express the opinion that upon actual measurement the i swamps will be found to cover a hun dred million acres. , With this Introduction, Mr. Carter writes a striking article on the recla mation work, in progress and pro posed, which Is one of the most im portant features of work by the gov ernment of this country today. The story Is Intensely Interesting and Is well illustrated. With harvest wages as high as ever and the cost of living somewhat re duced, there should be no free soup houses maintained for the Idle work ingmen of the coast cities next winter. A man who will work can earn enough money In the next 90 days In Umatilla county to keep him until next harvest, with the saloon eliminated from his list of luxuries. SOUTH IS GOING DRY. Lay the Jest about the Julep In the camphor balls at last. For the miracle has happened and the olden days are past; That which made Wllwaukee famous doesn't foam In Tennessee, And the lid in Alabama Is as tight as can be; And the comic paper colonel and his cronies well may sigh. For the mint Is waving gaily, and the South la going dry. By the hillside In Kentucky, all Is still, And the only damp refreshment must be dipped up from the rill, North Car'llna's stately governor gives his soda .glass a shove. And discusses local option with the South Car-Una Gov. It is useless at the fountain to be wlnkful of the eye, For the cocktail glass Is dusty and the South Is going dry. It Is water, water everywhere, and not a drop to drink. We no longer hear the music of the mellow crystal clink When the colonej and the general and the major and the Jedge Meet to have a little nip and to give appetite an edge For the eggnog now Is nogless and the rye has gone awry. And the punchbowl holds carnations and the south Is going dry, Selected. THE WINE OF THE HILLS. Of all the drinks I ever knew, From Chateau wines to shandygaff. From soft cream ale fresh from the Brew, Or champagne full of life and laugh; Whate'er their kind or vintage be; However nutty, old or rare, There's none that so entrances me As good, crisp, fresh-brewed moun tain air! The bouquet of the tapering pine. Aroma of the wooded mount, As clear as was the crystal wine From Horace's Banduslan fount! And oh, the Joy when from my bed I rise when morn succeeds the rout To find, although I have a head, 'Tis not the kind you read about! John Kendrlck Bangs In the Smart Set.
