It li is Ions been known that the
Philippines would be as a rock around
the neck of the United States in the
event of a war with Japan. It was
the knowUdge of this fact that caused
the Increased activity In army and
navy circles within the past year or
two and to the same more than any
thing else can be attributed the long
cruise of the Atlantic fleet.
Hut recently attention ha.s been call

the orient. It Is the ill-effect which

THE DAY or ,11'IKiMEXT,
With the calling of a grand Jury
this morning commences one of the
most important court sessions ever
held in the county. It is the opening
or the first term of court since the law
,the tropic sun of Luzon has upon the
j moral fibre of the fighting men and
, I citizens who are sent to the Islands
upon various duties.
"Ship mo somewhere east of Suez
Where the best is like the worst.
Where three 'alnt no Ten Command
ments, And a man can rale a thirst."
These lines were written by Kipling
iii reference to India. Hut they apply
as well to the Philippines, If the views
o. returning soldiers nuy he taken at
their full value.
More than one American home has.
bten rudely shattered because the
moral code In Manila Is not equal to
that in the states. Within recent
ytars a number of army officers on
duty In the Philippines have lost their
shoulder-straps because their conduct
was not up to the standard which the
I'nited States wisely sets for those
who wear the Insignia of rank. Then,
too, trouble has often arisen at horn
because the marital ties did not hold
sufficiently strong when the husband
was across the world. An Instance of
this kind was brought to light when
lebs Is dangerous. It is Instinct
that makes one half of the world bate
him; but don't, says Lincoln Stoffens
In the October Everybody's. He loves
mankind too much to he hurt of men;
and that's the power In him; and
that's the danger. The trouble, with
Debs is that he puts the happiness of
tile lace above everything else; busi
ness, prosperity, property. Keinark
UiZ this to him, I said lightly that he
was, therefore, unfit to be president.
"Yc," he answered seriously, "I
am not fitted either by temperament
or by taste for the office, utd if there
were any chance of my eleclioti
wouldn't run. The party wouldn't let
me. We socialists don't consider In
dividuals, you know; only the good of
all. Hut we aren't playing; to win;
not it. We want a majority of so
cialists, not of votes. There would be
no use getting Into power with a peo
ple th.1t did not understand; with a
lot of office-holders undisciplined by I
service in the party; unpurged, by.
personal sacrifice, of the selfish spir
it of 'the present system. We shall bej
a minority party first, and the coop
erative commonwealth can come only
when the people know enough to
want to work together, and when, by
.corking together to win, they have'
developed a common sense of com
mon service, ami a drllled-lti capacity
for mutual living and cooperative la
bor. I am running for president to
serve a very humble purpose: to teach
social consclousiies and to nsk men to
sacrifice the present for the future,
to 'throw away their votes' to mark
the rising tide of protest and build
un a party that will represent them.
When socialism is on the verge of
success the party will nominate an
able executive and a clear-headed ad
ministrator; not Debs."

SCROFULA
Swollen glands about tlie neck, wen!; i-ycs, .ile, waxy complexions,
running sores and ulcers, skin disease;;, and general poor health, nrc the
usual ways in which Scrofula is manifested. The disease being deeply
intrenched in'the Mood often attacks the bones, resulting in White Swelling,
or hip disease, and the scrofulous and tubercular matter so thoroughly
destroys the healthful properties of the blood that Scrofula sometimes
terminates in consumption, an incurable disease. The entire circulation
being contaminated, the only way to cure the limbic is to thoroughly
purify the blood and restore the circulation to a strong, healthy state.
S. S. S. is the very best treatment for Scrofula ; it renovates the entire
blood supply and drives out the scrofulous and tubercular deposits. S. S. S.
is the greatest of all blood purifiers, and it not ( lily goes right down t the
very bottom of the trouble and removes the cause, but it supplies the weak,
diseased blood with the healthful properties it is in need of, and in this way
builds up weak, frail, scrofulous persons and make.-, them strong and healthy.
S. S. S. is a gentle, safe, vegetable preparation and is : ;;iu ! for persons of
any age. Hook on the blood containing information about Scrofula and any
medical advice free. XHE SWIFT SPECI7.TC C.r.. ATw.M'A. CA

or. top of this comes the multitude of
liquor selling cases, upon the proper
handling of which much depends.
As to the particular cases to be
brought before the grand jury fh?

But In a general way this pape r re-juice--,

Joke, at the turn affairs have taken.
The prosecutions will be a welcome
thing for the community. Toe prohi
bition law was adopted by the people
of Umatilla county with deliberation
and forethought. It was adopted be
cause the people thought It would be
a good thing and the majority In fa
vor of the law was overwhelming. By
flagrantly breaking the law as tney
have done the ex-saloon men have
shown an utter disregard for the
wishes of the people.
When the votes were counted last
June and it was found that prohibi
ten had carried. District Atorney
Phelps immediately announced that
the statute would be enforced. Since
that time other warnings have been
given. The East Oregonian itself has.
frequently told the ex-saloon men that i
they were following a course that
meant deep trouble for themselves.
T'.ut the warnings were all unheed
ed and with practically op,-n defiance
those men continued to violate the
law dally, if not hourly. They now

So bad has been the moral effect
or the Philippines upon those who go

country In other than a military sense.

There is not a single movement in
which the people of I ndleton could

oj tiit . j ., I, than the revival of the
C'cmni, ri.ial association. The East
Oregoijian In glad trmt President Ai

A struggle with the social evil un
der unusual conditions is In progress
in Des Moines, says the Oregon Jour
nal. It will interest Portland and
other cities. Des Moines Is governed
by a commission with concentrated
power and responsibility. The plan
is to offer the scarlet women oppor
tunity to reform, and such as do not
accept are to be driven out. Em
ployment will be afforded, and moral
support and encouragement be heli!
out to those attempting better lives.
The ultimate purpose is to absolutely
rid the city of the red light district.
The problem is one of the most dif
ficult with which society has to con
tend. Its solution by social settle
ments for the outcasts has been at
tempted In several of the larger cities,
hut never with even moderate suc
cess. The complexities that arise by
reason of the peculiar phases of the
problem nre manifold and discourag
ing. The redeemed women, no mat
ter how sincere In their reform, never
cease to be frowned upon by members
or their own sex It Is notorious that
of all society, woman is the most ex
acting and least charitable to woman,
and yet in these social settlements for
the reclaimed, it Is the support of
good women that is most essential.
If Des Moines solves the problem,
Ir will be an object lesson for small
r.ltie.s, aid will be copied. It can
hardly be a guide for the great cities
where the conditions for dealing with
the melancholy problem seems almost
h opeless.

If there Is a single reason under the
hlning sun why the referendum
should be Invoked for the Interurban
franchise, It has not yet been brought
t'i light. When people, wherever
they may be from, come to Pendleton
with a proposition that means the
doubling of the city's population and
the cutting In half of electricity
charges, they should be given a wel
come hand and not a kick. The East
Oregonian does not believe that any
responsible people really favor invok
ing the referendum. Put If they do
they should take a long, aerious sec
ond thought before they do anything.
Warm language is sometimes used

Culm's Oriinsre Crop.
Consul Max J. Itaehr, of Clenfuegos,
reports that 500,000 crates is a con
servative estimate of this year's Cu
ban orange crop which will be the
largest In the history of the Island.
I'ntil a few years ago thousands of
(rates of oranges were brought to
Cuba from Florida and California
every year, but for the ia.'t three sea
sons these shipments have become
less, and will possibly cease entirely
within another year. Orange cultiva
tion on a scientific scale did not begin
In Cuba until about eight or nine
years ago, and may be considered In
its Infancy, but Is progressing rapidly,
and even at this early stage Is now In
position to supply the local markets.
The orange business on the Island Is
controlled almost entirely ry Americans.
The gentleman Is the man who Is
master of himself, who respects him
self, and makes others respect him.
The essence of a gentleman Is eternal
self-rule. It Implies a character
which possesses Itself, a self-controlling
force, a liberty which affirms
and regulates Itself according to the
true dignity. Henri Frederic Amlel
