Oregon, a seeond class mall matter.
If we knew the care and trials,
Knew the effort ail in vain.
An.l the hitter disappointment,
I'ndeistood the loss and gain.
Would the grim external rough
ness Seem, I wonder, Just the
same?
Would we help where now we
hinder?
Would we pity where we
blame?
A.i! we judge each other harsh
ly. Knowing not life's hidden
force;
Knowing not the fount of ac
tion Is less turbid at Its source.
Seeing not amid the evil
All the golden grains of good;
Oh. w e'd love each other better,
If we only understood.
spirit as now prevails In this city.
Conditions are ripe for local develop
ment. There are many things that
are going to make this town go ahead
i". the near future. Hut towns do not
Kl-ow themselves. They are built.
Hecause the local business men had
not been in action for some time It
was not known exactly what they
would do. There were some who
feared that because of little sore
spots and petty jealousies the woolen
mill movement would fail. Put yes
terday's meeting "bowed that this
fear was groundless.
Pendleton's business men are still
of the fighting calibre they are still
Pt ndletonians.
ASIATIC MORALS.
DEMOCRACY'S INXIXG.
The world Is divided Into two
classes those who are anxious to see
the world move forward and the con
dition of mankind improved and those
who hesitate to change existing con
ditions. The former are liberals, the
latter are "standpatters."
For many years the democratic
party has been the liberal party of
the United States; the republican
party the standpat brigade.
The democratic party stands for re
vising the tariff in the interests of
the people; for the direct election of
senators; fur a banking law that will
bo highly beneficial to the mass of the
people and for other meritorious re
forms. The republican party opposes
all of these just propositions and In
lieu of them offers a few weak ex
cuses for reform in hopes of catching
votes.
In the natural order of thins the
liber il pirty should dominate in this
country, because the United States is
a nation of progressive people. Put
the democratic party has been kept
out of power because of three things
prejudice growing out of the civil
war: the fact that the economic con-
dltior.s of the country chanced to be I
out of order when the last democrat- j
lc administration was in povr. and j
because powerful interests have!
fought the democratic party because
U!id-r republican rule they are prof
iting imnu-rwly, but at the expense
of the rest of the country.
Put the time has arrived for a
char.?'-. The civil war is over; the
panic last year proved that economic
!sturb.i'
Speaking of one of the many re
i ent scandals growing out of the
American possessions in the orient,
the St. Iiuis post-Dispatch said:
"When the latest army scandal in
volves the family affairs of an Amer
kan "vice-presidential family," the
least said about It as a family affair
i soonest mended, no doubt. Cut the
country must take notice when the
family Itself explains its beginning as
the result of service In the Phlllp-
pines.
j "So we have It once more. It is
1 another case of Asiatic morals, which
ore as catching as "Asiatic cholera,"
if not more so.
"When we go into the work of up
lifting inferior races 'somewhere east
of Suez, where there ain't no deca
logue," the work demands volunteers,
and among the volunteers the picked
men and women who are sure they
are proof against the worst In the
strength of the highest and most un
selfish motives. For all the rest, go
ing where there 'ain't no decalogue'
means the best possible opportunity
to find the worst and bring It homo
with them.
"We need not think that Asiatics
are degraded to account for this, but
the sort of moral restraint they have
is so different from ours, that when
we send any sort of a miscellaneous
collection of Americans to live under
Asiatic influences. It means practical
ly that for them 'the limit is off.'
They may easily lose the restraints of
American morals, and we know only
too well that they despise those of
Asia."
The white rice never did mingle
with an inferior race without degre
dation. It never will. Let us keep
America for the Americans and leave
Asia to the Asiatics.
THE SALARIED MAX.
- i
He gets his "twenty'-per" each week,
enough to pay his way.
He doesn't own a country home, a
yacht out in the bay;
Three children romp about his door,
that self-same door Is rented,
Put still he smiles his way along, with
all the world contented.
He meets his bills as they fall due,
at night sleeps like a top,
And resting sweetly never fears that
copper stock will drop.
He plods along right faithfully, and
when bis work Is done
He calls his children' round him for
the evening hour of fun;
His weary wife looks through the door
and Smiles to see them there.
And In her heart there's gentle peace.
her soul is f.-ce from care.
she hums a little song of love and
kisses one and all.
She fears no market crash to drive
her husband to the wall.
i5re.it wea'th has never seared their
s u!s or spoiled their simple
lives.
And on their hearth rank envy's weed
seldom, aye! never thrives;
Modest their dress and plain their
food, the greatest of their Joys,
The love they bear each other and
the love they bear their boys.
Theirs Is a struggle, sometimes hard.
but all the odds they face
With calmness, for they have no fear
of run or disgrace.
C!o forth today and tread your way
along the city street,
Who Is the happiest man of all that
you may chance to meet?
N'ot he whose wealth uncounted Is,
not he of splendid frame.
Not he who boasts a world of power.
not he of public name:
Put he, the unassuming man, whose
face Is homeward turned
Tc greet his wife and little ones, his
dally wage well earned.

would bring forth an expose of Sher

candidate he Is an angel with

been anything but a flunky for the

The vice-presidential nomination was
a little matter that was left to them
