trr the fokekjxek farm.
TI" editor of Colliers Weekly has
keen urfin? young men to buy up the
abandoned f3rms of the east, giving
ju a reason that the public lands In
the we.t are nearly all gone.
This statement Is not exact, says an
exchange. There are millions of un
claimed lands throughout the west,
jrt to be homesteaded, If desired,
tm3 thousands of acres to be bought
a) reasonable prlcea.
The difficulty Is not in finding the
fend. !ut in inducing the young men
fc take up farm life. So long as coun
try life f u'.s to attract and as long as
Lty life holds out Increased lure, how
It the problem to be met?
"Collier's need not worry; there Is
knj- of opportunity, east, north,
jcsth and west, for the man who
-ants to take up farm life, but where
re the young men with such inten
tions? Tt.e b.st solution of the problem is
l turn the tide of Immigration farm
ward .'ts much as possible. In the
tit, in the arid districts, where farm
ing is dune undVr unfavorable condi
tion.1:, it is the foreigners who are
anost successful. Weed the Incoming
immigrants out of the cities and en
tourage them to become farmers.
OPEN YOm HEAHT AND PIT.SE.
Of course no one can deny that
economy is one of the virtues, but we
lcust be careful not to close ourselves
to every appeal for help, says the
Cheyenne Tribune. If we are not
lere on earth to assist our friends, to
Slave sympathy for the unfortunate
aiT to give a lift now and then, what
sk our mission?
Life sends us about In strange di
rections, and It often happens that
those who are down now may be up
later when fortune isn't quite so kind
to us. Help your friend; the time will
eome, no doubt, when you will appeal
i him for assistance, for none of U9
can really stand alone.
This is a selfish reason possibly for
wiping others, but It often influences
eople to do for others when unselfish
reasons would have no Influence.
The real reason for extending help
sod sympathy to those In need Is this
if we walk unseeing and unmindful
f those who are less strong, we walk
mlon and without happiness.
DEFENDS WOOL BUYERS.
The people of Umatilla county are
not surprised to hear the Pendleton
Tribune defending the transient wool
fcayer who comes to the county and
state once a year for a few weeks as
against the wool producers who have
kbtlr entire capital invested here and
bo are permanently engaged In
nilding up the wool growing Industry
f the state.
The Tribune is always wrong and
the people expect nothing else from
The woolbuyers are "good fellows,"
tu be sure, and the East Oregonlan
personally admires a number of them
and has been guilty In the past of
printing their bearish wool market re
ports. But the woolbuyer cannot deceive
the people this year on the wool situ
ation. Oregon prices were hammered
own In order to keep later aales
down and the ruse effectually worked
and made at least half a million dol
lars profit for the woolbuyers and
commission men this year, from the
hard earned products of Oregon
sheepmen.
There Is no use disguising this fact.
It Is a part of the commercial game
and has been well played, but It
should not hide" the truth.
There Is a logical difference of two
cents per pound between Oregon wool
which shrinks 70 per cent In scouring
and the Montana wool, which shrink
66 per cent. Hut there Is not a dif
ference of from 5 to 7 cents. And
the Oregon staple Is better this year
than the Montana wool.
And here Is something which th
alleged woolgrower writing to th
Tribnne In defense of the woolbuyer
did not state, to-wit: The wool which
brought the highest price In the re
cent sales at Miles City, Mont., was
shorn from Oregon sheep, was filled
with Oregon sand and was logically
subject to all the conditions of Oregon
wool eales. but It brought the top
price in the Montana market. Why
Is this the case, If there was no com.
binatlon of woolbuyers In the early
Oregon markets?
The East Oregonlan welcomes the
woolbuyer to Pendleton and Umatilla
county, but It cannot Join with him In
hammering down the prices of one of
Umatilla county's chief commodities.
The East Oregonlan Is on the side of
the woolgrower every time.
The Tribune does not dare to nam
the alleged "woolgrower" who gave
it the Interview In defense of the wool-
buyers. To be sure, there should al
ways be the best of feeling between
the woolgrower and the woolbuyer.
but this good feeling should not run
to the extreme of the Oregon wool
grower giving up half a million of his
hard earned profits each year that
woolbuyers may be "good fellows,"
spenders of money . and wearers of
diamonds.
Let the Tribune name its alleged
woolgrower who thus defends the
woolbuyer. His fellows would like to
"see the color of his hair."
No need to fear that Umatilla coun.
ty wool will refnain a drug on the
market because the buyers cannot
manipulate the market to suit them
selves. Wool Is as good as the gold,
especially Oregon wool.
IK THE NEWSPAPER TOLD ALL.
The following truthful and striking
statement concerning a newspaper's
secrets hits the nails so forcibly on
the head that it Is worthy of repro
duction In the East Oregonlan. The
clipping is from the Joseph Herald,
but that paper failed to give the name
of the author, unfortunately. Here Is
the clipping and it contains nmre truth
than many of you had thought:
The average newspaper man gen
erally finds out all the naughty do.
inns, no matter how secretly they are
planned and kept.
If the papers should publish half
of the stuff they hear, there would bb
10 divorces where there Is now one.
There would be social ostracism of
many who now shino in upperdom.
There would be shotgun matinees,
lynching bees, hatchet parties, gore,
imprisonment, desolation and misery.
The editor learns hearly all hypoc
risy of life and it's a wonder he be.
lieves in man, woman, witph or the
devil, in heaven or hell.
Many people continually find fault
with newspapers, when as a matter of
fact they owe their very standing lr
the community to the editorial wasts
basket.
NOT SO TAME A ITER ALL.
Water, although looked upon as the
tamest of liquids, Is as great an ex
plosive as dynamite, under certain fa.
vorable conditions, says a sclentiflo
Journal.
It is said that In one day water
breaks up more earth and rock than
all the gunpowder, guncotton and dy
namite In the world do In a year.
These explosives can be controlled
by human agency, but water doea not
hold Itself accountable to man. It
splits the soli Into pieces. Finding a
crack In a huge rock, It repeats the
same process, forcing It asunder. If
frozen In the pores of a tree, It often
explodes with a report like a gunshot
and the force of a dynamite bomb.
So you see, water Is not so tame as
lr looks.

The high god9 took the rose's flame
of fire;
They took the drqwsy poppy's
breath of sleep;
And shaped her woman's soul of mad
desire,
And lovely languor deep.
They gave her for a voice, the rap
tured lark.
And set It singing In the quiet
hush;
They gave the dove to mourn at dawn
and dark,
And tender hermit-thrush.
Rich Cleopatra of the monthsl a
queen
Slie rules the world with sun that
southward' swings.
And see! like asp upon her bosom

WERE YOU HORN IX LEO?
People born between the 21st of
July and the 22d of August will rec
ognize some of the traits given below
as their own, although they may be
modified by the sign rising at birth.
Those born with the sun In Leo are
ambitions, aspiring, fond of and capa-
le of exercising authority. They are
generous, magnanimous, affectionate.
sympathetic, sociable and susceptible
to affairs of the heart.
Whatever their position in life U
la difficult for them to act In subor
dinate capacities, unless the indica
tions of serving are strong in the na
tal figure.
The sun In I.eo at birth Is f.ivorahle
for health and longevity for the f:ifh
er It favors the birtii of a son and
contributes to the manifestations of
genius. If other positions support It.
The native is Inclined to be a deep
thinker, and prefers to go to the bot
tom of any subject in which he may
be Interested.
While the sun is .still In Leo the
moon passes through the 12 signs of
the zodiac, and it may Interest the
reader to note the variations that are
played upon the principle tones of
the Leo character by the different
positions of the moon.
On the 21st of July, the day the
sun enters the sign of I.eo, the moon
is In the sign of Taurus and Inclines
the native to a study of namre. both
mental an 1 physical, givis. good bus
iness intuition and strong vitality.
For the three days following until the
2.1th, the moon is in Gemini, which
inclines to a love of odor and is both
artistic and mechanical, with strong
educational tendencies. On the 25th
and 26th the moon is in Cancer, which
denotes a domestic, sympathetic atiT)
sensitive nature liable to the extremes
of the Leo nature.
On the 27th, 28th and 29th, the
moon is In Leo. This polarity coun
teracts the nature of Leo when taken
separately.
The 30th and 31st the moon passes
Into Virgo, giving love of purity imd
harmony, a tendency to criticism. Im
petuosity, and Inclines to musical tal
ent. So on through the month are
the influences varied by the position
of the moon (with the sun still In the
sign of Leo), and an observant mind
will note these differences In the
characteristics of their friends and
acquaintances and be able to Judge
for themselves of the accuracy of stel
lar science. Stellar Ray.
THE SUNBEAM.
All along down to the trouble and the
strife
I could hear the music of the harps
of happy life
Birds were In the branches and the
blossoms were hanging sweet
Above the dusty city and along the
roaring street;
All along down to the traffic and the
pain,
I had brought a sunbeam from a cot
tage In a lane!

At Davenport, Wash., Monday, a

Malaria is due to impurities in the blooj which destroy the rich,
healthful qualities of the circulation, anil reduce it to a weak, watery fluid.
The body is then deprived of its necessary nourishment nnd strength, and is
unable to resist the countless disorders that assail it, and the general system
suffers in consequence. The appetite fails, digestion is weakened, chills
and slight fever are frequent, while the sulkier lose.) ciury and ambition.
Boils, skin eruptions, and some times sores and uicers follow when the
blood becomes deeply polluted with the malarial genus. Both a tonic
and blood purifier are needed to cure Malaria, and S. S. S. is best fitted for
this work. It is the most perfect of nil blood purifiers nnd at the same time
nn invigorating, healthful tonic. S. S. S. goes down into the circulation,
and removes every trace of impurity or poison, nnd gives to the blood the
health-sustaining qualities it needs. It cures Malaria thoroughly and per
manently because it removes from the blood the germs and poisons which
produce the disease, and while doing this tones up and strengthens every
part of the system. Book with' information about Malaria and any medical
advice furnished free to all who write.
