When the district fair commis sioners started upon the work of ar ranging for the fair that will open mxt Monday, they said: "We will make this fair the best that we have ever had. If some peo ple leave town because of prohibi tion that Is only an additional reason for making the fair better." This is the spirit in which the ar rangements for the fair have been n:ade. Though Pendleton Itself voted against prohibition her busi ness men are not grouchy because the movement carried. Instead, they accepted the verdict of the county with good grace and at once set to work to adapt themselves to the changed conditions. In preparing for the fair this fall the commissioners made their plans on broader and better lines than in the past. The pavilion has V.c. greatly enlarged and beautified. V : exhibits are being secured an 1 :'-e test possible, program has been ar ranged. If the fair does not make a hi: this year it will not be because th- management has left anything undone. In view of the excellent spirit shown by the commissioners the dis trict fair Is entitled to the hearty support of the people of Umatilla and Morrow counties. The East Oregon Ian hopes, that next week the fair p;,vilion will be crowded as It ha3 never been before. It believes it will be. A PROGRESSIVE STEP. If the statements of eminent phy sicians and bacteriologist are cor red. then the Pendleton city author- j Hies are riant in taking up the sub ject of protecting the city's milk sup ply. In an able article before the East--rn I'rcgon Medical society at its re cent meeting, Dr. Ralph C. M.itson, bacteriologist of the statu board of health, made the following state ment: 'There can be no doubt that In a certain number of rases the tubercu losis occurring in the human subject, especially of children, is the result of the introduction Into the human body of the bacillus of bovine tu berculosis; and there also can be no doubt that In the majority, at least, of these cases, the bacillus Is Intro duced through cow's milk eontulnins bovine tubercle bacilli, Is clearly a cause of tuberculosis and of fatal tu berculosis In man. "Of 60 cases of human mbcrculo sl'i investigated, 14 wire pure bovine. If Im-tead of taking (ill these CO cases they confined themselves to cases of tuberculosis In which the bacilli- were apparently introduced by way of all iTIentary canal, the proportion be longs very much larger, being 28. Uf nine cases of tuberculosis of the cervical glands that were studied, three were bovine. These facts Indi cate a very large proportion of tu berculosis Is due to bacilli of bovine source." This being the case surely every ef frrt should be made to lessen the danger of contamination. It Is gen erally conceded that' cities can han dle the oubject most effectively, for under their police powers, munici palities may say exactly what pre- cautions dairymen must take. I'en uleton ha made a progressive step in this direction and It should com plete the movement A LESSON FROM TMF DEAD. One of the strongest virtues ac credited to ex-rivsMeiit Cleveland v as a roiiragroux Independence of n.liul a trait that enabled him to follow consistently in a nurse he otisideted right even thouuh II i ,i ant deep censure fr bi:u at the time. Since his death the ex-pi'esl-d nt has In en spoken of as a man vho believed that a ship should be .-teeiid according to chart and com pass and not by the scenery. j Whatever may be thought of j Cleveland, this is a rule thai could be f. Unwed with wisdom by lesser men than presidents. In a democracy I v. lu re the people are supreme then la ie too many men w ho set k to sail with popular breezes" rather than In accordance with any fixed principles! ot their own. There are people, both ! I'.en and women and of all classes, vho give careful attention to their reputations what others think of them but seldom give a thought to the n ally Important subject of char niter. Though a deference to public opin ion Is but right and to be expected, yet the man who shapes bis course with the sole aim of pleasing the pop. ular fancy Is liable to meet with ship wreck. Tublic sentiment is some thing that Is often hard to fathom, and besides it is subject to change. A better and a safer guide may be found In a man's own judgment and conscience. Every man, whether his station be high Or low, is possessed of an instinct when points like a compass needle to the north star of righteousness. It Is a good thing to fellow, whether one be a prominent public man or a humble voter; n merchant prince or a laborer; scholar or student; society matron or school girl. OREGON, POOR OREGON! Slnce Edward Harriman now classes himself as an Oregonlan the Portland papers seem to .consider themselves Justified in talking plain ly to him. In a pointed editorial last evening one of them said: Harriman's eastern gateway to Or egon Is Green River. Wyo. It Is there the passenger westward bound starts for Oregon In the Pacific northwest rather than continue on to Califor nia. I'p to that point he finds him 'self treated with superior consider ation. He has first-class accommo lions, fine service and a dining car ' ct fills the bill as well as it is filled on the Harriman system. Should he be bound In this direction he finds at Green River that he is a horse of quite another color from that which he believed himself to be on the way from the east. Immediately the ac commodations sink to a lower grade, from two to several notches; the dining car becomes a delusion and a snare to ultimately degenerate into a buffet. What nobody seems able to under stand Is why this slight should be put upon Oregon, which so liberally pat ronizes the Harriman system an 1 pours so many millions Into the cof fers. Why should a wet blanket be thus thrown over visitors coming here, rainy perhaps Intending to set tle, some to Invest? Can they get a good impression with this slight put upon the state and Its people the mo ment the train haves Green River? President Roosevelt and William J. I'ryan are now seiuared off for the n.cst Interesting verbal sparring match of the campaign and the coun try Is watching the controversy wltn Interest. All the world loves a fight and the bigger the men the better the bout. The grand jurors who are now Just getting started upon a iongthy Job, are liable to come out of the jury room with the Impression that the world is wicked. The poet who wrote "The melan choly days are here," did not live In eastern Oregon. THE ROLL OF GREATNESS. Spokane business and professional men have named the five greatest liv ing Americans, as follows: 1. Theodore Roosevelt. 2. Thomas A. Edison. 3. William J. Rryan. 4. Andrew Carnegie. 5. Charles W. Eliot. f'y rights the list should be contin ued to include these deserving of "honorable mention," who almost won a plane among the leaders: Luther fiurbiink. Hooker T. Washington. J. Plcrpont Morgan. A contributor to the American Mag azine tells of an all-night meeting of a club which endeavored to elect the five present-day Immortals and which finally evolved this list: Theodore Roosevelt, William J. Rryan, J. P. Morgan, Charleg W. Eliot and Samuel Gompera. To ascertain If this list was Itulors i l in Spokane, letters were addressed to a score of prominent men asking for their opinion, with the result that 1,1 answers have been received. The name of Theodore Roosevelt Is on every list, he being given first place i'i all but two; one man ranking him second greatest, another fourth great est. The name of Thomas A. Kdlson Is on every list except nne, ho belnT i, Miked first greatest by two men, see. oiul by four, third by four and fourth l four. The name of Willi im .1 I'ryau Is on 10 lists, he being ranked eeond greatest by four, fourth g'.eat esi by five and fifth greatest by one, .Mi. 'new Carnegie and Charles W. Illlot are close rivals. Carnegie win ning by two lists. The selection Is made In Spokane according to the vote and the rank crmputed therefrom Is as follows; Theodore Roosevelt.' Thomas A. Kd l.'dii, William J.

From Paradise, one day, an angel brought A radiant gem and placed It In the ha ml Of one who waited. "Cherish It. Let naught Its luster mar; forget it not." he said. "It's light, now flashing. It will stead fast sh.ed As you are loyal to your love and true. It is the only one will shine for you." - " k ... MJ? The mortal looked upon the glowing thing iKxultingly. A great joy filled his heart. Like a bright dewilrop, where the sun beams fling Light shafts reflected. It lay glisten ing there White In Its purity, surpassing fair The very kernel of all life, all truth. The center ot the heart of love of youth. As time went on the mortal's wonder died. That such a priceless gift should be his own. He tossed it high, in foolish, boyish pride. Tc watch Its splendid rays flame in the sun: He felt himself of gods the favored one, Till once, in careless mood, a fatal day He put It down; forgetting, let it stay. Then did he miss the light In two gray eyes. That he was used to see, complacent ly. The light that beams with Love's sub lime surprise. That touches earth with heaven's di vinity. The Jewell Vain the search. Swift penalty! The angel's warning words remem bered. Told him the getn was gone, that Love was dead. Life. HIS Till RE. A tramp passing through the wait ing room of the Northwestern depot at Milwaukee, spied a small enameled pin lying on the floor. He picked It up, looked It over in a cereless way, and pinned it on the lapel of his coat. The same tramp, a few months later, was hit and knocked into unconscious ness by a switch engine in the freight yards, Just outside the depot. The trainmen picked him up and telephon ed to police headquarters for an am bulance. "What did you say his name was?" came over the telephone from tho desk sergeant. "Don't know. The man is uncon scious," replied the switchman. . "Any papers on him by which you can identify him'." asked the sergeant. "Not a thing," 'phoned back the switchman, "Does he belong to any lodge or union'.'" inquired the sergeant. "Hold the line till I take a look." replied the switchman, and in a mo ment the desk sergeant was greatly surprised to receive this Information: "Yes; he Is a Lady Maccabee."--K very body's Magazine.

Nason, of Grenoble, aubmits some statistics concerning tho earnings and incomes of certain classes of the French people in Pails, as recently published by M. Andre liefever. the president of the Paris municipal council. The consul writes: The annual Income of the average Paris household Is placed at about $730. In the fashionable, quarter of the Champs Klysees. the annual aver age household revenue Is said to be about $5Gip0; In the near by Farbourg Saint Honore. $3700; while In the Ma deline district It falls to J3r.no. As to the Incomes of certain pro fessional men In France, it was ascer tained that out of the 2000 advocates practicing at the Paris bar only about L'llO earn over $20(l a year and only about Si! reeelve above JlO.OiiO. The number of physicians practicing In Paris Is placed at JlTiOn, but only about one-half (12011) of these make more than $1600 a year. Dentists do .-omewhat better; a fashionable one can easily earn 60(I0, while in some cases this figure Is greatly exceeded.
