Curious. I, and impudent, a rug

And yet I hold you truer than
would president or priest;
I Tut my bowl against your lip

I probe your wound and chafe
your limbs and get my
gods to see
Tint you are strengthened as we
fare the forest and the

Strike hands with me the

BACK THE MOVEMENT.
"The importance of manufacturing
establishments is not fully realized by
unthinking people." said Frank W.
Swanton, manager of the Columbia
Millirg company, in an interview in
the Oregon Journal. ''When the mere
announcement is made by a concern
that a factory of some Importance will
be built in a locality there is at once
renewed activity, values increa.se.
homes and business houses are built
and the locality becomes of import
ance. Take the peninsula, for in
stance, which has been all astir for
some years since the assurance was
given that the Swift plant would be
established down there. When the
mere assurance of a concern creates
such activity what will the realiza
tion of such industries accomplish?
Encourage the manufacturers, we
need all we can secure and the most
effective way to get new ones is to
support what we have."
This statement applies as well to
Pendleton as it does to Portland.
The most effective way to get new In
dustries is to support what we have.
If the property owners, merchant
and bankers of this city hope to see
the town go forward. If they want new
people and new factories to come
the f;rt thing for them to do Is to
keep the woolen mill here and de
velop that Industry.
By the nature of its position Pen
dleton is a woolen mill town. It is
the greatest wool center in the state.
Millions of pounds of wool are ship
ped from nere annually. Most of it
goe-s east unscoured. This is not
r:ght. It should all be scoured here
and much of the raw material made
Into manufactured goods right hero
where the wool is grown.
At the present time raw wool Is
taken to New England. There it Is
scoured and made into blankets and
garments that are shipped back to the
west. The west raises the wool, but
the east gets most of the good out of
it
Io you want to help remedy this
situation? Do you want to encourage
manufacturing In the west. Do you
want Pendleton to retain an Industry
that has done much for It in the past,
but under right management may be
tiilarg' d into a plant several times Its
present size?
If you do, get behind the move
ment and help retain the woolen mill.
Make the movement a suoposs. Towns
are buiit, they do not grow.
RM'H FISHER, MARTYR.
Another good man has been killed
because he did his duty as he fund
It. Kitting in hlx law office In Port
land .-'aturduy, Ralph Fisher, prose
tutor for the Oregon Par association,
v. Uf r'l.il in the back of tae head and
kll!o by a cowardly degenerate.
In the course of his duty as an of
ficer of the bar association Fisher
found it necessary to bring disbar
ment proceeding" cgair.ist a member
of the legal profession. The facts In
t!. ' ...'c against Finch, the murderer.
Indicate that not only Khould he have
been debarred, but lie should have
been Klvea even heavier punishment
The killing of Fisher fully proves
that the work ho was doing was
needed. The law is a high calling.
Members of the legal profession, as a
rule at least, are men of high char,
acter men who believe in law an 1
Justice and who consider the oath
they take when admitted to the bar,
as something to be respected.
Only such men belong in the profes.
s'on. Men who are lacking In mor
ality should not be admitted to the
bar. But If by chance one does be
come admitted he should be perma
nently disbarred when his low calibre
is discovered. The law provides for
it and this law Is one that should be
vigorously enforced.
May the killing of Fisher not end
the work he was doing. His blood
should arouse his follow practitioners
to the need of further action along
the line he was working. If It does
and the result is the betterment of
the legal profession In this state Ralph
Fisher's death will not have been in
vain.
'UNDER THE PRO.IECT."
Under the Umatilla Irrigation pro.
Ject lie 12.000 acres of land that will
some day support a family upon every
10 acres.
At this time the settlement of the
greaj project has just begun. Here
and there over the big pathless, silent
valley are little homes. They hav
been built by hardy, clear-sighted
men who see the opportunities under
the project.
Every week these little homes be
come thicker. A year ago hardly a
house was to be seen' outside of Her
miston. Now scores of good little
dwellings dot the project. Nor are
they homestead shacks. They are
houses, weatherboarded and painted.
They are fit for people to live in. Peo
ple are living there now, some of the
best people on earth, people who have
the nerve-to back up their Judgment
and are not afraid to work.
In a few years from now there will
be many hundreds of little cottages
where there are now but a score or
more upon the project.
Within a few years there will be
vineyards and orchards where now
the sagebrush grows. From these
vineyards and orchards the owners
will be picking fruit that will bring
them $1000 an acre or more.
Within a few years the sandy roads
across the project will have been con
verted Into well made highways, lined
with long rows of trees.
On .Sundays, and other days, these
driveways will be filled with autos
and rubber-tired buggies, driven by
contented, prosperous people who own
valuable land under the project and
are making money.
Keep your eye on the west end.
Keep your eye on the Hermiston
valley and upon the people who are
settling "under the project."
LEAVE THE FLEET HERE.
It Is now announced that America
and Japan have reached an agree
ment whereby they will mutually
guarantee the entity of China and the
open door policy. By reason of the
treaty danger of strife between the
two countries Is greatly lessened.
It is to be hoped that the agreement
will hold and that It will permanently
insure peace between the two coun
tries. Peace ft sweet and war Is as
General Sherman defined it, If indeed
It Is not worse.
But nevertheless the United States
should keep a good battleship fleet
upon the Pacific. It Is possible the
sending of the Atlantic fleet to the
orient was one of the strong cards
the administration played In Its dip
lomatic game with the mikado.
Then It Is possible the future will
bring forth diplomatic problems other
than those arising out of China. In
the agreement between the two coun
tries there Is seemingly nothing upon
the subject of oriental exclusion from
the United States nor anything defin
ing the status of Japanese children In
the schools of the Pacific coast.
At the present time these problems
are not really serious. But If Japan
ese Immigration continues as It has In
the past, a race problem Is going to
arise In the states along the Pacific,
It may be a difficult one to solve if
allowed to go too long.
If the administration does Its duty
by the Pacific coast It will keep a
fleet upon the Pacific so as to be In
readiness for further negotiations with
the aggressive little brown men acros
the ocean.
In another part of this Issue of the
East Oregonlan Is an Interview with
a man who has found all kinds of
good opportunities for Investment In
this county. Mr. Lewis Is right. There
are good openings for Investors all
around us In the west end, the east
end, the south end and In the wheat
belt. Look at them before going
elsewhere.
What Oregon needs Is not only a
strong law against gun currying, but
a swift, rigid enforcement of the law
against murder. It is Impossible to
Keep a man from carrying a coiu-eal-ed
weapon. The fact that he has one
upon his person never becomes known
until he has used It. A better way Is
to hang the man who uses It, espec
ially If he shoots his victim in the
back when he Is alone and defenseless.
STRAY THOUGHTS
Of a Crank.
The happy, successful farmer has
many friends v:rh odd names. Ha we
ou ever noticed it?
He has Experience. Contentment.
Patience, Mercy,' Faith, Hope. Charity
and Love. You will find yourself hap
py and successful, too, when all these
can be found under your roof.
PHI you ever notice how much good
there Is in honest laughter? The man
who Is laughing never strikes his
horse or cow at that time, neither
does he kick the dog.
Any story, the reading of which
made one life brighter, one household
happier, one heart less sad, was well
worth the writing.
The compensation should be equal
for men and women, where the
amount of work done and the quality
are the same.
A mule once drew a heavy load up
a steep hill; when he had almost
reached the top he kicked himself
loose and the load ro'lol down til."
hill. That mule had to go back and
draw the same load to the top of the
same hill again. There are lots of
mules in the world. Ponder, and be
wise.

THE OATE OF DREAMS.
An Idle youth one summer day
Went wandering afield
Xor east or west on any quest
That eye or though revealed
But on and on through bloom and
shine
And down by shady streams,
Through lane and wood, until he I
" stood i
Beside the Gate of Dreams.
What saw he there? Nay, rather ask:
What saw he not and heard, I
Hath mind perceived? Hath heart I
received? j
Hath soul been deeply stirred I
By radiant things, by whisperings j
From better lands? It seems j
All these he saw and heard in awe (
Beside the Gate of Dreams. j
What brought he back that summer j
day
From wandering afield?
Naught he can show or tell. I know,
Of things on earth ' revealed,
But more than gold, a mill Am fold
And ell the world esteems
He holds the day he strayed away
Beside the Gate of Dreams.

One Saturday, shortly before the
close of business, Kuhn, Loeb & com
pany had occasion to send some bonds
to J. Plerpont Morgan. As all the
other employes had left. It was ne
cessary to entrust the negro porter
with the valuable package to Mr.
Morgan's office, and to Insist upon
giving It to Mr. Morgan of J. P.
Morgan & company and to no one
else."
By commendable persistence and
many repetitions of his instructions
he finally succeeded in reaching Mr.
Morgan, who was In session with sev
eral other gentlemen In his private
office.
"Ah wants to see Mr. Mawgan ob
J. Piehpon' Mawgan an' company,"
he doggedly lns:sted.
, Mr. Morgan arose. "Well, I'm Mr.
Morgan," he said. "Who are you?"
"Who er me?" stammered the
porter. "Why, I'se de coon ob Kuhn,
Loeb an company, an' hah's de pa
pers Ah done brung yo'." Every

A Lost Day.
A young boy got a Job with a Scot
tish farmer once.
"Ye'll sleep In the barn," the farm
er said, "and I'll expect you oot In
the field Ilka morn at foor o'clock."
"Very well, sir," said the boy.
But the first morning he overslept
a little and It was 4:30 when he
reached the field. v
The farmer, leaning on his hoe,
gave him a black look.
"Where have ye been all the fore
noon?" he growled. Washington

straw before you forget It.
