UNION,VU.ABEL I sought In silence the broken thread Of Peace that Fear and Doubt had fled; In silence I sought and the word came clear: Toil on! Have faith, there is naught to fear! Press ever on till life be spent, Pause not In doubt nor dlscon- tent! . . One little thought of uncertain- ty brings Armies of doubts with their flapping wings! Have faith, have faith, 'tis the gleam that dispels All mists and clouds and fune- ral knells; Come, doubt no more, O timid heart. Know that of all Good, you are a part! Florence X. Fox in the r- Nautilus. ALL ADVERTISING PAYS. The California Fruitgrowers' asso elation, working in conjunction with the Union Pacific Railway, determin ed upon a publicity campaign to gat people to buy oranges. The fruit growers wanted an enlarged market, so together they bought newspaper space to tell Iowans of California or anges. The first shipment of oranges com prised a full train and the fruit found a ready market. A second train of 25 cars brought more than the mar ket price. Iowans this year Increas ed their consumption of oranges by 70 per cent over any year preceding. The people were satisfied with the fruit, the Union Pacific was satisfied with its returns from the freight chargec. and the glowers were well leaded Willi the prices which the fruit brougnt. All three got their money's worth and the railroad and the association have their principal expended in advertising back in their pockets and along with it the reward of enterprise. But the profit Is not all accounted for yet. Interest on the original ad vertising outlay will be collected by the railroad and the fruitgrowers for years to come. Does advertising pay? No practi cal man of affairs presumes any longer even to consider the question one of a debatable nature. ONE BOARD FOR ALL SCHOOLS. The committee of- the state grange on reforms In the financial manage ment of the institutions of higher ed ucation in Oregon has prepared a draft of a bill which proposes to place all such institutions under one board of five members. Instead of separate boards of re gents for the normal schools, the state university and the Oregon agri cultural college, all these schools are to be put under one board of control. The board will have the general su pervision over the schools and will exercise absolute control and man agement of the Institutions, depen dent, of course, for appropriations to maintain them upon the legislature or the people. The bill provides that the governor shall appoint the mem bera five In number, none of whom hall reside in a county where there are such institutions and if a mem ber should remove to any such coun ty his office shall be declared va. cant. Neither the Btate superintendent ot public Instruction nor any other state official shall be a member of the board. This board of five members will look after the property of the state, select all the teachers and of ficers, manage all business, make the schools as nearly self-sustaining as poslble and is modeled in general after a similar act adopted in Wis consin. Copies of the bill are to be printed at once and sent by the grange, to the members of the legislature and the state press. - OURSELVES "MADE OVER." There Is nothing truer than that "we can make ourselves over by using and developing the right kind of thought forces," says Orlsen Swett Marden In Success Magazine. Not long since a young man whom I had not seen for several years, call ed on me, and I was amazed at the tremendous change In him. When I had last seen him he was pessi mistic, discouraged, tlmost despair ing; he had soured on life, lost con fidence In human nature and In him self. During the Interval he had completely changed. The sullen, bit ter expression that used to charac terize his face was replaced by one of job and gladness! He was radi ant, cheerful, happy, hopeful. The young man had married a cheerful, optimistic wifo, who had the happy faculty of laughing him out of his "blues" and melancholy, changing the tenor of his thoughts, cheering him up. and making him put a higher estimate on himself. His removal from an unhappy en vironment, together with his wife's helpful influence, and his own deter, minatlon to make good, had all worked together to bring about a rev. olutlon In his mental make-up. The leve-princlple and the use of the right thought force had verily made a new man of him. He is a fortunate man who early learns the secret of scientific brain bulldlng, and who acquires the lues. tlmable art of holding the right sug gestion in his mind, so that he can triumph over the dominant note in his environment when It Is unfriend ly to his highest good. PROUD OF UMATILLA. A test of early strawberry growing in western Umatilla county and Hood River county will be made next spring, and this friendly rivalry will bring out the exact worth of these counties as far as climatic conditions are concerned. Hermlston and Hood River grow ers will vie with each other to reach the Portland markets first with ripe strawberries next spring and all of the northwest will watch the race with interest. Pendleton banks on Hermlston. It Is believed here by those familiar with the climatic conditions of both Hermlston and Hood River that Her mlston can outdistance the Hood River district at least a full week in the production of early strawber ries. The soil at Hermlston never be comes cold and clammy as It does at Hood River. Although the soil may freeze slightly at Hermiston one day of sunshine warms it up and by Feb ruary 1 or even earlier young plants may be seen putting - forth theif green shoots and by a little protec tion by mulching may be kept grow ing without danger of freezing. It is honestly believed that ripe strawberries, grown outdoors and ripened by natural heat may be sent out of Hermlston by April 25 or per haps earlier. If Hood River expects to beat Umatilla county she will have to "get up early in the morning." Hermlston not only has a soil and climate that are unsurpassed, but sh has a class of people which add 100 per cent of energy, pluck and vigor to the soil and climate. The East Oregonlan is going to place all surplus cash on Hermlston sunThine and Hermiston push In this strawberry race. MAKING BANKS SAFER. The panic of last fall has had more than one beneficial result, but espe cially marked is the Improvement In banking methods already realized, with the further restriction planned. The monetary commission now proposes to frame a bill making compulsory the publication of the liabilities of bank officers and direc tors, and prohibiting a corporation from owning shares in a bank. The amount of commercial paper for a single Interest in which a bank may invest Is also to be limited. Those two things have caused many failures the extensive loaning of a bank's funds to officers, or the Investment of the depositors' money in stocks or bonds of a corporation controlled by directors. These two suggestions of the com mission are constructive and sane, and should meet with general ap proval and support T. T. Geer, editor of the Pendleton Tribune, cruelly taunts the editor of the East Oregonlan with writing po etic "gush" about plney woods and siwash lore. But a fool poet doesn't cost the people anything, while a fool politician might slip Into office and do a lot of damage. Imagine, paying T. T. Geer $7600 a year to represent eastern Oregon in congress. P.Ut It Is all a dream. There Is no danger of Geer slipping' Into a con gressional seat. (Soe election re turns for 1908, especially from Uma. tllla county.) There are no reasons for Pendleton not having a first-class woolen, mill lit operation. It la useless to recount the reasons why she should have one. All of the reasons are In favor of this latter proposition. It Is really sur. prising to think that Pendleton capl tal will allow the wheels of the mill to stand still while they might bt grinding out thousands of dollars In profits. At Jersey City last week a crowd of "society" folks dined on rattle- snakes and pronounced It good. Had this outlandish feast taken place any where west of the Rocky mountain It would have caused all the church boards to confer on the matter of Increasing the home missionary fund of the west. As it happened In the east It was a "society" affair and everybody considers the source and passes it up. WHERE PRAIRIE, BREEZES BLOW, ph, the scent of the sage comes drift' ing down on the breath of a prai rle breeze, From the plains where the bunch' grass ripples brown, like the waves of the summer seas. And the dear, sweet smell of the hillside pines, and the cottonwoods that grow- In canyons deep, comes home to me when the west winds gently blow I can see the bulk of a milling herd in the rain clouds massing black (By the angry breath of the storm wind stirred) and riders on Its track; I can hear the rush of a mad stam pede when the lightnings flash and glow, And wild hoofs heating the prairie sod, when the stirring west winds blow. Oh, for the feel of a braided rein and the plunge of a prairie steed, And the brave, Xrue hearts that the open plain and the wind-swept mountains breed. Oh, for the days on the long divides, and nights by the camp-fire's glow, Hard on the trail of the herds that roam where the prairie breezes blow. Bertrand W. Sinclair in the. Bohe mian. TIPPING EVIL UNDER THE BAN. The waiter, the norter and the bell boy with the Itching palm must go. says an item from Milwaukee. The ipplne custom must be abolished. This Is the edict of the traveling men of the country assembled In Milwau; kee today to complete the organiza tion of the National Travelers' associ ation. The proposed organization is to s.'ive as a clearing hous- for all com plaints from commercial travolers. The tipping evil heads the list of grievances and is to be given first attention. When that problem has been solved the association will work to secure clean towels, six-foot sheets, adequate fire escapes . and other things which the "drummers" believe themselves entitled to but which they do not always receive at the hands of the hotel proprietors. PATTI'S BIltTH ItEC'OKD.

Whether these impurities in the blood are the result of some debilitating sickness, an old taint from .1 former disease, or whether it is hereditary bad blood, there is but one way to cure sons and ulcers, and that is to purify the blood. Washes, salves, lotions, etc., are often beneficial because of their cleansing, antiseptic effects, but nothing applied to the surface can reach the blood, where the real cause is, and therefore cannot cure. S. S. S. is the remedy for sores and ulcers of every kind. It gets down to the very bottom of the trouble and removes every trace of impurity or poison, and makes a lasting cure. S. S. S. changes the quality of the circu lation, so that instead of feeding the diseased parts with impurities, it nourishes and heals the irritated, inflamed flesh and causes the ulcer to fill in with healthy tissue by supplying it with pure, rich blood.

Foster of Ottawa furnishes the following sum mary of the bounties paid In Canada under laws now in force: The bounties paid by the Canadian department of trade and commerce on certain production during the cal endar year 1907 were as follows: Pig Iron, $793,005; steel, $1,098,873; wire rods, $412,417; crude petrol eum, $414,158; manlla fiber (used), $38,893: total. $2,757,346. The stand ard price of pig lead was so high in 1907 that no bounty had to be paid. Lead Bounty. The bounty on every 100 pounds of lead contained In lead-bearing ores mined In Canada is 75 cents, provided the bounty to be paid in $500,000. When the. standard price of pig lead In London exceeds 12 10s ($60. S3) per ton of 2240 pounds, such duty shall be reduced by the amount of such excess. Payment of this bounty may be made from time to time to the ex tent of 60 per cent, the remaining 40 per cent at the close of the year. If at the close of any year It appears that the quantity of lead produced during that year, on which bounty Is authorized, exceeded 33,333 tons of 2000 pounds each, the bounty shall be reduced to such sum as will bring the payments within the $500,000. Produets of lead manufactured in Canada from lead ores mined in Can ada, without the Intervention of the smelting process, may be brought A MOT HER Thousands of women have found the use of Mother's Friend robs confinement of much pain and insures safety to life of mother and child.

As the lead bounties expired on June 30, 1908, the minister of fin ance has offered In parliament a res olution, which will undoubtedly be enacted Into law, extending them to June 30, 1913, raising the standard price of lead In London to X14 10s ($70.56), removing the $500,000 lim itation to be paid in any single year, but providing that not more than $2,500,000 shall be paid, during the extended act. lVtrolounh, Binder Twine, Cordage A bounty of 1 cents per gallon on all crude petroleum produced from wells in Canada was author ized from June 8, 1904. The gover nor in council is authorized to pay a bounty for the manufacture of binder twine in Canada, such bounty to be equal to the amount paid as export duty In the Philippine Is lands on manlla fiber produced In those islands, and used in the manu facture of binder twine in Canada, provided the bounty shall not ex pound on the manlla fiber used In the manufacture of binder twine. The samo applies to the manufacture of cordage In Canada from manlla fiber. When a man tells a girl she Is pretty she tries to make him believe she didn't know It until ho told her.
