is
We can not, of course. all be
handsome,
And It's hard for us all to be
good,
We are sure now and then to be
lonely,
And we don't always do as we
should.
To be patient Is not always easy,
To be cheerful Is much harder
' still.
But at least we can always be
pleasant,
If we make up our minds that
we will.
And It pays every time to be
kindly, '
Although you feel worried and
blue;
If you smile at the world and
look cheerful,
The world will soon smile
back at you.
So try to brace up and look
pleasant,
No matter how long you are
down,
Good humor Is always contagious
But you banish your friends
When you frown. Selected.
TO THE LEGISLATORS.
Here Is a personal message, a di
rect and driving reminder to you.
Bill Smith and John Jones and Dick
Brown and every other Individual
member of the Oregon legislature:
Are you, John Jones, going to be
the Individual member of this legis
lature who will sell your soul to the
corruptionlsts who are- trying to over
throw the people In the election of
United States senators?
Are you going to be the traitor who
shall come home from Salem brand
ed with infamy and odium, a treach
erous, dishonest, corrupt tool who
took part in delivering the state leg
islature over to the boodlers?
Are you going to be one of the Indi
vidual members who defy the sover
eign people of this state who have de
clared by a majority of 58,000 votes
that the people's choice shall be heed
ed in the election of a United States
senator?
Do you expect to defy the sover
eign electorate of this state In this
fundamental matter and still come
home and live a respected man among
your neighbors? Or are you willing
to come home wearing the earmarks
of the corruptionlsts, wearing the col
lar of the boodlers, carrying in your
heart the knowledge that you have
been a party to a corrupt scheme to
et aside the will of tho people?
No matter if a democrat has been
elected. The people are greater than
you or a dozen or a hundred like you.
Tou are not a dictator. Tou are a
servant, nn agent, a- representative.
Tou have no choice higher or more
binding than the people's Instruc
tions to you.
Will you do your duty or will you
shirk it? Are you a friend of the
sovereign people of this state or are
you a member of the little selfish
gang which Is trying to retain lta
grip on the patronage and offices of
the state?
This is a matter for you to decide,
Mr. Legislator.
THE FRONTIER VANISHES.
The total disappearance of mining
towns formerly graced the map of
eastern Oregon, reminds the thought
ful observer that the old frontier set
tlements and frontier conditions are
rapidly vanishing from this section of
the state. We are getting down to
the bedrock settlements, to the per
manent growth and substantial civ
ilization which is to "stick."
Dozens of flourishing mining
towns formerly graced the may of
eastern Oregon. Now they are but
memories. At one time thousand of
people swarmed through the hills,
eager, gold-hungry, adventurous,
fleeting. But they are not now to be
found. The abandoned camps and
worked out gulches are even more
desolate for one -having heard the
noise of life.
All through eastern Oregon are the
wrecks of once lively little sawmill
towns In the foothills. During the
halcoyn period of sawmllllng In the
cary eighties, when timber was plen
tiful hundreds of men made fortunes
and built up respectable settlements.
Now the mountains are stripped
the t)wns dead, the settlements for
saken and the waste lands more
worthless for having been stripped
of their protecting forests.
The fact remains that the agricul
tural belt, the substantial settlements
depending upon the rich soil of the
eastern Oregon counties are the per
manent ground work for eastern Ore
gon's civilization.
Towns like Pendleton and La
Grande, founded upon a permanent
basis with agriculture. Irrigation and
stockralslng as resources, are going
constantly forward. The growth may
not be swift, but It Is certain and
steady.
The once, desert land of Umatilla,
Union and Baker counties is now
supporting what promises to be the
most substantial, most prosperous
and most progressive population of
the northwest. Unlike the frontier
settlements of the mining and saw
mill districts, this country founded
upon agriculture will grow stronger
and more prosperous with age.
It will not see its resources dlmln
Ish, but rather as cultivation and
care and Irrigation enriches the soil,
the resource will constantly Increase
and grow stronger.
SCHOOL DAYS.
On Monday, September 7, the first
Monday in the month, the public
schools doors of Pendleton will open
and 1000 merry children will don
their fall bonnets, gather up their
books and "hike" to school."
It Is a pleasant time of year, this
Indian summer, school time and enj
of harvest. From all the fartherest
streets and lanes the little tots will
come to school and life takes on a
new aspect. The town always awak
ens from the semi-conscious period
of summer when the crisp morning
and school days arrive.
Already numerous farmers are In
quiring for houses In town and by
the time harvest Is entirely over and
grain hauling done, the public schools
will be brimming full.
It promises to be a good school
year. Increased attendance from
every part of the county Is promised
and teachers and students are look
ing forward to the opening day with
enthusiasm and delight. Pendleton
offers more In an educational way
this fall than ever before. The
schools are better equipped, have a
wide scope and better organization
than ever before.
Farmers seeking a place to educate
their children cannot afford to over
look the advantages of Pendleton.
The city has made special effort to
make her schools attractive. Noth
ing has been left undone to meet the
demands of the surrounding country
in the way of equipment and the
standard of the schools Is even better
than the material ulpment of the
schools.
There Is a school spirit that is con
tagious. Even the little third and
fourth graders have their yells, their
mottoes, their class rivalries, their
athletic contests. And out of this
class 'rivalry and splendid school spir
it, comes a m,ental progress, an ad
vancement in their studies which is
impossible where there Is less spirit
and rivalry.
Are you coming to Tendleton? Are
you ready for school? Will you take
advantage of the excellent opportu
nity which this city has placed before
you?
ITS A GOOD SIGN.
From all Indications it seems that
a resumption of expenditures for con
struction, improvements and equip
ment is considered by most of the
railroads.
The physical-condition ,of the roads
would be much benefited by such ex
penditures, which In turn would ben
efit general business. Orders for any
considerable quantity of equipment
would Immediately give the steel bus
iness a period of Increased activity,
and as steel Is considered the barom
eter of trade, this activity through the
Increased tonnage of the railroads,
and the employment of additional la
bor, would Inevitably extend to other
industrial lines.
It Is said by a traveler that a bar
ren Island In the Persian gulf Is the
hottest place on earth. Well, per
haps after this traveler passes through
the sand hills of the Columbia river
between Arlington and Celllo about
2 o'clock some afternoon, he will
long to get back to the cooler breezes
of the Perslon gulf.

BAD FRONTAL HEADACHES
EYES BOTHERED ME
DROPPING IN MY THROAT
MRS. F.LIZAKKTH H." MAHTIN,
3S2 Bowen Avenue, Chieago, 111.,
Chaplain Garfield Circle, writes:
"Peruna 'has been a blessing to oar
family for a good many years, as we
have all used it off aul on forTolds and
catarrh, and I have given it to all of my
children with tli-? best of results.
"I found that a cold left me with
catarrh of the head in a very had form.
My head was stopped up, I had frontal
headaches, my eyes bothered me, and
there was a nasty dropping in my
throat which nauseated mo and made
It Impossible many times for me to eat
my breakfast.
"As soon as I began to use Peruna I
found it relieved me, my head soon
cleared up and in a remarkably short
time I was rid of catarrh.
"I can, therefore, give my personal
experience with your valuable medi
cine, and am pleaded to do so."
People who prefer solid to liquid
medicines can now secure Peruna tab
lets, which contain the medicinal in
gredients of Peruna.

hammers cease on the new city hall
building, tht the same hammers will
be ready to start work on the federal
building. And by the time the fed
eral building is completed, It Is hoped
that a Carnegie library building may
be ready for the carpenters and brick
masons. There Is plenty In sight for
Pendleton to keep the builder's at
work perpetually.
Honestly, now, are you not proud
of Pendleton's record for the first two
months of prohibition? Isn't It worth
something to have the streets rid of
drunken men, beer kegs and other
evidences of the saloon? Xo town in
the world ever advertised how many
saloons It supports. That Is enough
to convince you that nobody Is really
proud of the liquor business.
