For the third time the gates of the d.strict fair were swung open this .'ift-rnoon and a week of pleasant, profitable entertainment is now In store for the people of Vmatilla and Morrow counties. In every particular the fair Is bet tn this year than ever before and the management is to be congratulated upon the success of their work. Put the fair should be better than In the past because the district has ad vanced. When the third district was organized four years ngo the Umatilla Central had scarcely been thought of and the east Umatilla reclamation project was but a dream. The Uma tilla river and other streams of the county were being used for fishing purposes only and the Idea of an In t i urban electric line would have been chimerical. Now ail is changed. The Pilot II 'ck country' which was then only a stock region, has been aroused from its sleep by the whistle of the branch l;ne locomotive, and as a result Pilot 7oek now has a fruit exhibit that ri vals that from Milton and Freewater. In the Echo country four years ago the principal hope was in a Jack rab bit cannery. The land of the west end was worthless. Hut the hr-ath of life v...s entered the arid section through the irrigation ditches and the d sert is being converted into alfalfa fields, orchards and vineyards. These are but some of the changes that have taken place in this county during the r.at few years and they mark the beginning of n new period in the history of the county the era of development. The fact that a transf'irmation is now on may be l-'ait.iy seen at the district fair pavil ion. ar.d to the Kast Oregonlan this is the fn:et thing in connection with t:,e fe.jr. THE ( WI SE IS EVERYTHING. War to be successful must be mor ally right and the nation that takes tl.e ;'..;. against a foe should first in.iKe -ure that the hearts of its peo ple will be in the struggle. This is a fact tliat was known of eld, but has been somewhat overlook ed In t:i!s age of powerful armaments. I.'ef'ire the war with Japan the Itus- in- la-;;. e the armies of the czar would be invincible because they were strong in numbers and equipment. Pu; itinera; Kuropatkiti, who com n:ande the Russian forces In Man churia, now knows where his army was weak. In his expose of the Rus Fion army, now appearing In Mc C'lure's magazine, he has the follow ing to "ay of the moial element In the war: 5 TV The recent contest in Manchuria vas a popular war for the Japanese, but not for us. The Korean question, atol the fjue.vt! n of naval supremacy on the waters of the Pacifie, Involved vital Japanese Interests, ami the im mense importance of th se interests was so clearly understood and so ful ly appreciated by the Japanese people that the war for their protection was ;i national war. Japanese soldiers, deeply conscious of Jhe bearing that their exploits might have on the fu ture of the country, fought with a self-sacrificing devotion and a atub- lx. rones that we had never soon In any war iu which we had previously In on engaged. Sometimes, In villages' that we had taken by assault, a hand ful f Japanese soldiers would barri cade themselves In native houses and .lie there rather than retreat or sur render. Japanese officers who fell n to our hands even wounded officers generally committed suicide. Military history shows that. In nil wars, the antagonist who Is strongest morally wins the victory. SAtiKlUUMI I'OU KOADS. Kuu-heis of a practical turn of mind in the vicinity of Pasco have discovered a use for the generous growth of sagebrush In that vicinity, s,is the Spokesman-Review. They .ire using it to make roads of, and It !s proving of great benefit during the s, ason of wheat hauling. Following a dry, hot summer, the r. ads were full of dust and the heavy. grain-loaded wagons cut deep nto the highways and made hauling difficult Ti,.. iKimi remedv. straw, was too scarce to be wasted upon the roads. Nr other road material appeared at hand, until some bright farmer be thought himself of the despised sage brush. The bushes are grubbed up, roots and nil, and thrown Into the. highway and the road building Is complete. After that It is simply a question of time until the grain wagons grind the sagebrush and dust Into a firm, though springy, mass, and the road will stay in good condition during the hauling season. Should a spot wear thin, repairs are easy. It Is simply a case of pulling up a few bushes and throwing them Into the road. How the sagebrush would work un der rainy conditions It Is Impossible to say. as the fall has been ns dry as the summer. The success has been so marked this fall, however, that it Is piobable the use of straw. In that sec tion of the grain belt at least, Is a thing of the past. LEGITIMATE 1". ICING. At the Pacific national show held iu Portland last week was given an- iher exemplification of the fact that races may be conducted successfully without pool selling. During the week tens of thousands of people gathered at the Country club track and watched some of the best harness races ever seen in the west. Respectable people of all classes were there, but the touts and bookmakers who graced the old track In former days were not to be seen. The character of the crowd was lm- ' proved 100 per cent. Then the races were pulled off on program time. The people In the ptand stand were not required to sit for hours while the pool-sellers did their work below. And there was lit tle or no suspicion of jobbery where as In former days the crowd never expected to see a race won upon Its merits. The American people love horses and they love good racing. It is a legitimate sport if conducted proper ly. Put the only way lo make It real sport is to cut out the pool selling an I the natural crookedness that attends races where open gambling Is allow ed. Eugene people are proud of thel: new depot and they have a riht to be. Though they have but one rail road they were able to necure a new Nation, while Pendleton has lrt-en un able to do so with four lines running into the city. Rut every town has its dav. A Umatilla wheat ranch has Just been sold for J 15 an acre. This Is a big county and It has all kinds of land for all kinds of Investors. The fair will be open every after noon and every evening.

All the wide world Is narrowed down To walls of corn, now sere and brown. What do they hold these walls of corn. Whose banners toss In the breeze of morn. No sent'ne's guard these walls of corn Never Is sounded the warder's horn; Yet the pillars are hung with gleam ing gold, Left all unbarred, though thieves are bold. Clothes and food for the tolling poor; Wealth to keep at the rich man's door. Ment for the heathy, nnd balm for him Who moans and tosses in "hamher dim; Shoes for the barefoo'ed. pearls to twine In the scented tresses of ladles fine; Things of use for the lowly cot, Where (bless the corn!) want cometh not; Luxuries rare for the mansion grand, Gifts of a rich and feitile hind. All these things, nnd so many more. It would fill a book but to name them o'er. Are bid and held in C-esc walls of corn, Whose banners toss In the breeze of morn. "pen the atlas, conned by rule.

As this land is now, to paint it then? Ami how would the wise ones have laughted in scorn. Had prophet forlold these walls of corn, Whose banners tons in the breeze of morn! ' Ellen P Allerton.

External applications of salves, washes, lotions, ctc may reduce the inflam mation atjd assist in keeping the place clean, but cannot cure the trouble because they do not reach its source. Old sores exist because the blood is infected with impurities and poisons which are constantly being discharged into the place. The nerves, tissues and fibres of the Hesh are kept in a State of irritation and disease by being daily fed with the germ-laden matter through the circulation, making it impossible for the pore to heal. S. S. S. cures chronic sores by its purifying action on the blood. It goes down into the circulation, and 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 disch i::;e ceases, tiro inflammation leaves, new tissue begins to form, the place fills in with firm, healthy flesh, and soon the sore is permanently ctired.
