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!

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.

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

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.

constantly discharged into tlie open place to irritate the delicate nerves,
tissues and surrounding flesh arid keep the sore id a state of inflammation

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

nourishes and heals the irritated, inflamed flesh and causes the ulcer to
fill in with healthy tissue by supplying it with pure, rich blood. Book

CANADIAN BOUNTIES.
Consul General John G. 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

act.
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.
