Because the Pendleton Tribune "goi
off on the wrong foot" in its state
ments about the location of power and
water sites on the Umatilla river it 19
making a frantic effort to maintain
Its position and in doing so has con
tradicted Itself half a dozen times
within the last two days.
In one breath the Tribune says that
a power site does not interfere with
the supply of water in a stream; that
all the filings on power facilities on
the Umatilla river have not interfered
with Pendleton's right to use this
water at any place In the stream and
In the next breath it says that the only
reason Pendleton may be considered
short of a water supply is becau.se W.
S. Byers has the entire flow of the
stream located for power purposes.
In one sentence it says a power site
does not interfere with the water sup
ply and in the next it denies this state,
rnont and says that W. S. Byers' rights
are the one which will make trouble
for Pendleton.
A filing for a power site claims a
stated number of inches for the lo
cator and nobody can go above this
site and diminish the supply of watev
without violating the law. Pendleton
could not go above the Wenaha peo
ple's sites and divert water if her di
version interfered with their supply;
neither can Pendleton go above the
McKay creek sites filed upon yester
day to divert water for the city's use,
if that diversion infringes on the lo
cption of 20,000 Inches of water mad
yesterday.
Pendleton don't want to come be
low all the power sites for a water
si'Pr'v- She wants a fresh water sup
ply fr.m the high mountain and ha'
It. tended going to the upper river for
sueh supply but the location of all thf.
available water in the stream below

should understand that 10,000 inches
of wfter W 10.000 inches of water and
if a company locates that amount at
a siven point a subsequent locator
cannot go above and diminish that
amour;: without violating the law and
inviting endless litigation.
Pendleton don't want to take out
a supply at the agency or anywhere
else In the lower river. She wants
a mountain supply and the filings
made recently have cornered all the
supply of the upper river.
Any little third-grader should be
able to see the fallacy of the Tribune's
contradictory argument. In one sen
tence it declares that a power site
claiming a stated number of Inches of
water does not interfere with the
flow of the stream and In the next
breath It says that the only serious
obstacle In the way of Pendleton's se
curing a fresh water iiupply Is the
Byers' power site.
Tlie Mings of the Wenaha people
are just as legal and binding as those
of W. H. Byers and are Just as much
of an obstacle In Pendleton's way as
the Byers filing. Pendleton cannot
go above either of them and Interfere
with the flow of the utrearn. And
HOW TO GET ALONG IV SCHOOL.
Kverv year large numbers of wor
thy young people work their way
through the various schools of Pen
dleton. Business men are delighted
to be able to offer work to these
young people and homes are to be
found for scores of young men anrt
women who earnestly desire to att'end
school.
The East Oregonlan Is personally
acquainted Willi a numner in gi'iiuu-
ate.s of Pendleton schools who have
worked their way through. They are
among the brightest, most thorough
students the schools have turned out.
They are well acquainted with hard
work In and out of school. They are
not strangers to hardship, but theU
acquaintance with hardships and
hard work only fits them more fully
for life's work.
No good education comes without
effort. No young man or woman who
Is afraid of work ever amounts to
much. No student who scorns work
ir.g through need ever expect any
great results from their education.
It is honorable to work. It is a part
of every' education.
Last year 533 young men worked
their way through Harvard university,
the greatest university, In many re
spects, In the world. They did not
hesitate to work at anything which
was offered. Some of them sawed
wood, some waited tables, some peel
ed potatoes, some swept stairways and
offices, some worked In laundries,
some In kitchens, some In libraries,
some In stables but they worked
their way through this great Institu
tion. Some of these young men were
studying for the law, some for the
ministry, some for engineering pro
fessions, some for teaching, some tot
accountants, some for scientific pur
suits, but no matter what their ulti
mate object In life, they were willing
to adopt, any honorable means to
reach It.
And every pulpit occupied by an
of. these boys will be better becaus
of that hard work, and every court
will be better because of the pres
ence of these young lawyers who
worked their way to a profitable and
honorable profession.
So don't be afraid to work. Pen
dleton will help you get an education.
There Is, a place here for you.

TO MOVE THE STATE FAIR.

It Is the promise of Salem's busi

ting behind the state fair and help
boost It a their big exposition and

people who attend the fair In n man

look after their guests in tho same

fair being moved from Its present

o OLD SORES
No old sore can heal until the cause which produces it has been removed.
External applications of salves, washes, lotions, etc., may reduce the inflam
mation and assist in keeping the place clean, but cannot cure the trouble
because they do not reach its source. Old sores et:-,t because the blood is
infected with impurities and poisons which ate constantly being discharged
into the place. The nerves, tissues and fibres of the f.c.h are kept in a state
of irritation and disease by being daily fed with the germ-laden matter
through the circulation, making it impossible f'r the sore to heal. S. S. S.
cures chronic sores by its purifying action on the blo.'J. It goes down into
the circulation, nnd removes the poison-producing germs, impurities and
morbid matters which are responsible for the failure of the place to heal.
S. S. S. makes the blood pure, fresh and healthy; then as new, rich blood is
carried to the spot the healing process begins, all discharge ceases, the
inflammation leaves, new tissue begins to form, the place fills in with firm,
healthy flesh, and soon the sore is permanently cured. S. S. S. is purely
vegetable, the safest and best blood purifier for young or old. Book on

THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA, GA.
The Rural Spirit of Portland this
week discusses a subject that has re
ceived much publicity in Oregon dur
ing the past few years, the removal
of the state fair grounds from Salem
to Portland.
There Is a tendency In the state
toward making Portland the hub of
the state institutions. There is a
strong sentiment In favor of locating!
the state university there; many
claim that one big normal school I
would supply the entire state If lo
cated at Portland; it is claimed that
the metropolis Is the logical home ofj
the agricultural college and now the
matter of moving the state fair is be
ing generally discussed.
Oregon is not always going to be
a one-city state Eugene In the Wil
lamette valley, Pendleton In eastern
Oregon and Medford In the southern
portion of the state and perhaps
Marsh field on the lower coast will
grow Into metropolitan centers and
will be entitled to state Institutions.
So the tendency toward centering ev
ery Interest and every institution In
Portland or any other one city of the
state should be discouraged.
Oregon is a big state with diversi
fied Interests and will always demand
a big, broad policy for the conduct of
the state Inslttutlons and state enter
prises. It will keep the rich red
blood of state pride flowing more
freely and more vigorously through
her veins if the state Institutions are
distributed over the state where peo
ple In all parts of the commonwealth
may enjoy the presence of the state's
great machinery.
The Rural Spirit says:
A rumor that the Oregon state fair
will In time be moved to Portland
has attained considerable circulation
throughout the state.
This Idea was reached, no doubt,
from the fact that Portland Is build
ing a big racing and stock show plant.
The promoters of the Portland enter
prise have never given this any con
sideration, and perhaps never will
unless the country people make strong
demands In favpr of Portland.
This Journal hVis never been and Is
not now In favor of moving the state
fair anywhere. We have ample room
on the present site to equip one of the
finest fair grounds In America and
we hope that the Idea of moving the
