Walt ay, the hours bring night
and night brings morn,
The old .wheel forces on the
waning day,
Walt, till the pale tomorrow
shall be born,
As little gracious, and In turn
decay.
Rest Is a cloud above the set
ting sun
That sees him set, nor fails In
steadfast sphere;
Peace Is a moon that when the
stars are done
Without a twinkle sleeps up
on the mere.
Death is the mother and the
. queen of Peace,
Against whose breast each lit
tle wayward child,
Who never rested yet on alie'n
knees,
Feels her his own and ere he
slumbers smiles.

A MERITORIOUS ORDIXAXCE.
Seldom Is an ordinance drafted that
has more real merit than the one
providing for the regulation of the
dairy business In Pendleton. Tills
ordinance as it now reads will do
some good for the people of the city
if passed by the council and properly
enforced.
The ordinance strictly prohibits the
sale of milk from tuberculosis cows.
It requires that dairymen take proper
sanitary care of utensils in which
milk Is kept or delivered and It bars
them from leaving their own cans or
bottles at homes where contagious
disease prevails.
Furthermore, the ordinance fixes a
standard of quality for the milk and
cream that Is sold within the city.
Cream must contain not less than 18
per cent of butter fat. while milk
must measure up to at least 2 Per
cent under the Babcock test. It Is
held that milk that does not meas
ure ud to this standard has either
been watered or has been separated
from Its cream.
The people of the city are entitled
to the passage of this ordinance. They
are entitled to receive wholesome
milk from dairymen and undoubted
ly the most effective way of obtain
ing It is by means of an ordinance
such as has been drafted by Drs. Cole
and McCiure.
It may be that the passage of the
ordinance will work a hardship on
sc me dairymen. Loss for someone Is
Involved in every reform whether
grr-at small. But It Is hard to con
ceive how an honest dairyman could
object to any of the thing contained
In the ordinance now up. The East
Orf-gonian does not believe they will.
They are good citizens and will prob
ably welcome the ordinance as much
a.-: other people.
But whether the dairymen like It
or not the ordinance proposed Is a
step in the right direction. It Is per
fectly right and proper for the coun
cil to handle such a subject and the
aldermen will not go wrong In pass
ing the ordinance that has been draft
ed or one similar to It.
SPIRIT OF OOXCILLATIOX.
The Canadian conciliation board
has succeeded in settling the trouble
on the Canadian Pacific and the shop
men return to work, having gained In
fact their object after a dispute last
ing several weeks. The report of the
board was made public at Winnipeg
Monday.
On March 22, 1907, the Canadian
industrial disputes investigation act
went Into effect The law provides
for boards of conciliation and Investi
gation, appointed for each dispute.
The industries to which the law ap
plies are those known as public utili
ties, such as steam and electric rail
ways, power and lighting plants and
similar Industrie, and may be extend
ed to coal mines.
FTom the time the law was pasted
up to January 15, 1908, according to
a bulletin of the departments of com
merce and labor, 30 disputes became
subject to Investigation, nnd in 28
cases strikes were averted or ended.
The settlement of the most recent
trouble on the Canadian Pacific is
additional proof that the law works
well. The most valuable fouture of
the act Is claimed to be that it es
tablished a regular form of procedure
for bringing partlt together before a
strike or lockout Is declared.
So far as can be judged from the
experience of the past year, the law
has accomplished the main purpose
for which It was enacted the pre
vention of strikes and lockouts In
public service industries. It has not
adversely affected the condition of
the workingmen or of the Industries
where It has been applied. No em
ployer complained that the law na
hampered his business, and' It Is not
reputed to have Influenced prices.
There Is some opposition to the act
among the unions to which It Is most
directly applied, but as thc findings
of the boards are not final It Is evi
dent that no possible harm can be
done by Investigation of Industrial
disputes with conciliation and the
averting of strikes the ends In view.
Investigation, arbitration, concilia
tion these are the forces operating
In all civilized countries to bring em
ployer and laborer together on a fair
basis, and the success of the Cana
dian act marks another advance In
the right direction. Salt Lake Her

Mr. Samuel Gompers appears to de
sire to commit the vote of organized
labor to one of the presidential can
didates. Quite aside from the merits
of the presidential candidates, it Is
pretty safe to predict that Mr. Gom
pers will not be able to deliver the
vote on election day, says the Spokane
Chronicle.
As organized labor is constituted
today It Is an utter Impossibility for
any one man or group of men to com
pel it to vote In a certain manner.
There never has been a serfdom in
labor's ranks In this country, and
there never should be.
When any one man assumes the of
fice of dictator to organized labor,
and attempts to swing the laboring
men's votes like an ordinary boss,
that man la bound to antagonize for
unionism many people who otherwise
are prepared to deal fairly with it,
and to Invite dissension in the ranks
of the men he pretends to represent.
Working men can be trusted to be
the first to resent the pleading to
republicans, democrats, prohibitionists
or the Independents. It Is not a ques
tion of party, but of principle.
CLOCKS
THAT KEEP
Time
EXACT
Scientific- men are busily engaged
in the effort to produce a clock which
shall keep exact time. So far, the
principal competitors for tho primacy
have been constructors of clocks of
the observatories of Greenwich, Ley
den, Berlin and Washington. The
clock mounted In the Greenwich ob
servatory in 1850 for the measure
of time In astronomical observations,
varied from absolute accuracy only
one-seventh of a second -In 24 hours,
but the beginning of the present cen
tury another clock was Installed there
which varies only one-twelfth of a
second In a day: It is lately stated
In a dispute on the subject that the
clocks of Berlin and Leyden are
even more exact, their variation being
only one-fortieth to one-fiftieth of
a second in 24 hours.
But according to Professor Elch-
elberger, the palm must be awarded
to the clock In the naval observatory
at Washington, which he saya
varies only one-sixtieth of a second
In 24 hours. To this statement the
Greenwich observer answers that the
comparison Is not well made; that
at the present time clocks may be
made to go with perfect theoretical
accuracy if all the conditions of at
mosphere were uniform. Small vari
ations of the air, of pressure, of tem
perature and humidity, produce vari
ations in clocks the more noticeable
the more delicate and exact the clocks
are, so that to preserve perfect ex
actitude in the movement of the ma
chinery, which means the measure
ment of time, it Is necessary to resort
to artifices outside of the clockwork.
Thus, for example, the new clock
at Greenwich is Installed in a place
where the temperature varies only
five degrees In all the year and Is
built with an automatic mechanism
to correct the atmospheric pressure,
so that it is said to maintain as cor
rect time as the clock in the naval
observatory at Washington. Port
land Journal.
While the city authorities are busy
with the cleaning up movement they
might consider the proposition of es
tablishing city scavenger wagon for
the purpose of removing the obnox-
lous rubbish and filth. At present
there are no regular scavenger wag
ons and the householder who has
trash to remove must first Induce a
drayman to do the work for' him and
then pay him a high price for his
service. ' Possibly If the city main
tained a public scavenger wagon,
making regular rounds, the people
would do better and the deadly mi
crobe could be routed more effectively.
Imperialism reaches a wretched
pass remarks the Springfield Repub
lican, when Earl Cromer, In the Brit
ish house of lords, condemns the sys
tem of education In India as the
breeder of demagogues and agitators
rather than loyal British subjects,
and declares that a free press has
been a success In neither India nor
Egypt. What will England do with
those countries ultimately, If the more
educated and well-informed their peo
ple become the more opposed they
will be to alien government? ,. ..
The business concern that handles
perishable goods, whether it be a
meat market, a fruit stand or a dairy,
cannot hope to do a successful busi
ness unless the owner realizes that
from a patron's standpoint cleanli
ness Is more than godliness.
It is hot In Pendleton sometimes,
but the warmth here is nothing com
pared with the sweltering heat of the
humid east where people die at a
temperature of 95. The weather
here is straightforward at least.
THE MARATHOX RACE.
And then the clerk of the course,
turning to the starter, said, "All Is
ready," whereupon the starter, an of
ficer of the Greek army, gave out
the conditions of the race, first in
French and then In Greek, and, hav
ing done that, paused, and baring his
head addressed his own countrymen
anew:
"The Greeks had this run Inserted
In the Olympic list," he said, "to
commemorate the historic feat of the
messenger who carried the news of
the great victory of Marathon to the
anxious waiters at Athens.
"Which of us does not know It by
heart? But It may be wise to re
hearse It here. Know then that when
the valiant Greeks had swept the field
of Marathon their first thought was
to get the news home. They sought
a fleet courier, and found him In the
person of a warrior who had fought
all day against the Invading PersI
ans and who was even then panting
from his exertions. This one was only
too proud to be chosen messenger
Indeed, who would not be? and at
the word he wag off, only dlscumber
Ing himself of his heavier armor. His
great, run was made with but one
brief stop for refreshment on the
way. He reached the market place
of Athens in an incredibly short time,
turned to the multitude, spoke the
one word. 'Victory'' and dropped
dead."
Here the officer's voice choked, and
for a moment he could not go on,
and there were tears In the eyes of
many others also. And then he went
on. "And so may It be with us of
Greece today victory or "
"Death!" shouted severer.
Fire which broke out In the log
ging woods near the camp of the Pen
insula Lumber company,( five miles
west of Columbia City, Ore., from
some unknown cause, got beyond
control Sunday, and the company's
entire force was called out to pro
tect the roadbed and equipment. In
trying to save the donkey engine the
men did heroic work. Dan Burns,
the foreman of the camp was over
come with smoke, but revived and
continued to work. All the en
gines were saved, also the equip
ment. About 200 acres of timber
were burned. The fire Is now un
der control.

ELBERT HUBBARD OX HORSES.
Elbert Hubbard shows his kindly
sentiments for the horse in the fol
lowing letter which he recently wrote
to James T. Angell, editor of Dumb
Animals. Mr. Hubbard said:
The Roycroft Fraternity,
East Aurora, Erie County, N. Y.
June 6, 1908
Dear Mr. Angell: I wish you would
send me a few back numbers of your
publication, Our Dumb Animals. I
want to clip some of the things that
you have said In behalf of the horses,
and how they suffer in time of war.
It seems to me that you are the
only man In the world who has ever
lifted up a voice for horses In war.
They get no glory nor pension, but
often you will hear of men milking
the boast as to the number of horses
that have been shot under them,
without a thought of pity for the
horses.
If man Is under obligations to give
his fellow men a square deal, I am
Inclined to think that he should give
a square deal to this servant that
does so much for us, lives and wears
out his life for our benefit.
Therefore, with your permission, I
am going to reprint some of the many
choice things that you say along this
line.
With love and blessings ever, I am
Sincerely yours,
(Signed) ELBERT HUBBARD.
JOEL ClIAXDLEIt 1LVRRIS.
In ono of the last articles written
by Joel Chandler Harris for his mag
azine, appeared the following bit of
philosophy characteristic of the dis
tinguished writer:
Let it nut be supposed by those who
imagine that- they are unfortunate,
that the colossal fortunes heaped up
by modern business methods will add
to the happiness of those who have
allowed greed to have Its way. All
the gold In the world will not buy an
ounce of contentment. Its purchas
ing power ceases where happiness is
concerned. These statements are
platitudes, of course, but it Is well
once in awhile to shake a live and
wriggling platitude In the face of the
public if only to reassure some of
the hopeless ones that God is in his
world and that all is well. The

CATARRH MADE LIFE
A BURDEN TO ME.
11 JTISS AXXIK CATHOX, HL'7 Main
IVi St., Cincinnati, Ohio, writes:
"As I have found Peruna a blessing
for a severe case of catarrh of tbe head
and throat which I suffered from for a
number of years, I am only too pleased
to give it my personal endorsement.
"Catarrh, such as 1 suffered from,
made life a burden to mo, my breath
was offensive, stomach bad, and my
bead stopped up so that I whs usually
troubled with a headache, and although
J tried many so-called remedies, noth
ing gave me permanent relief. I was
rather discouraged with all medicines
when Peruna was rusgested to me.
"However, I did buy a bottle, and be
fore that was finished there was a
marked chauge In my condition. Much
encouraged I kept on until I was com
plctely cured In a month's time, and I
find that my general health is also ex
cellent." People who prefer solid medicines
should try Peruna tablets. Each tablet
represents one average dose of Peruna,
