For many reasons the subject of
intensified farming Is mow a vital one
li- this section. Tho In ml Is becom
ing too expensive for exclusive
wheat-raising. If land owners wish
their property to continue to advance
In value they must Improve tho farm
ing methods of tho county.
Scientific men declare the farms of
I'matilla county a:v not being work
ed to anything like their full capacity.
They declare other things than wheat
may be raised here with success and
that If the right methods are adopted
the population of this county may bo
tii ubled or trebled with ease.
Why not go to Cheyenne and hear
v hat the dry farming men have to
?av?
going too ear.

In jesting guise but ye are wise,

VTAXn TOGETHER.
In a recent Issue t'.'.e Baker City
Herald argues against the location of
the pro'jiosd branch asylum in Pen
dleton and Insists that it should go
t . Haker instead.
Is this a forerunner f what is to
come; are the towns of Eastern Ore
gut going to fall out over the ques
tion of where the asylum is to be lo
cated? If they do, then good-bye to
t'ae branch asylum. It will not he
located In Eastern' Orgon at all. It
will go to the "vicinity" of Portland
or to Southern Oregon.
If Eastern Oregon gets what It Is
entitled to from the legislature the
people of this section must work to
gether. They should agree upon the
most favorable location for the In
stitution and then stand together In
the matter.
Physicians recommnd that there
should be a branch asylum In East
ern Oregon because the climate here
would be beneficial to many pa
tients. The East Oregonlan believes
, they refer to that section of Eastern
Oregon lying between the Blue moun
tains and the Cascades. This Is the
"Land of Sunshine," and it Is the sec
tion generally referred to when peo
ple speak of Eastern Oregon. Baker
City Is located high up In the moun
tains and while it is in Eastern Ore
gon It is in no sense of the word a
typical Eastern Oregon town. But of
course if it can be shown that Baker
City is a more favorable place for the
institution, then by all means let
Baker have It.
But the chief argument that the
Baker City Herald puts forth against
Pendleton is that the supreme court
holds a session here and that because
of this fact Pendleton already "ha3
something." This is exactly the kind
of talk that should not be made. This
sort of talk will kill the proposition
entirelv. It shows narrowness and
selfishness.
If Baker City, or any town, wants
the branch asylum let that town stand
upon its own merits as Pendleton is
doing. But first of all let us avoid
nny Eastern Oregon quarrel upon the
subject.
Over in Seattle the city school
superintendent is striving to strictly
iforce a rule which prohibits pupils
from giving presents to their teach
ers.
Isn't this going a trifle far in the
matter of advanced discipline? Why
Wouldn't a little girl or a little boy
take teacher an apple or a bunch of
flowers If she or he wants to do so.
Why shouldn't they club together and
buy a Christmas present if they want
to do so? Why curb the juvenile
spirit?
The other day a little school girl
of this city ran three or four blocks
;:; order to walk to school with her
teacher. Was this wrong? Seem
ingly it would be considered so In
Seattle. Over there they seem to
want to have all the children stamped
with the same mold, so they will look
alike and act alike, r.ut that is not
the true theory of education. Chil
dren are human beings not machines
and their individuality should be de
veloped, not retarded.

Those who like Pendleton anil are
anxious to see the city go forward
have room for rejoicing because of
the manner in which the people of
the city are now co-operating in
movements for the good of the town.
During the past month or two tha
1 usine:-s men and the property own
ers of the city have united In the
work of reviving the woolen mill and
of remodeling the Commercial asso
ciation. Success is attending their
efforts in both instances.
During the past few weeks the
ladies of the city have co-operated In
the task of raising money for the li
brary. They have succeeded splen
didluy and as a result Pendleton will
soon have as finely equipped library
as is to be found In a place of this
size.
If the people of the city will but
continue to work together with the
enthusiasm they have manifested this
fall Pendleton will soon become a
larger city and a finer place In which
t.) live. Keep up the good work; It
Is worth while.

The Portland police seem to be
mad because toe train robbery oc
curred outside the city limits and
they are not trying to catch the
bandits. Such sulklness.
Pendleton always has a warm spot
In Its heart for the University of Ore
gon Glee club. Some of the best
students at the U. of O. are from this
city.
GO TO CHEYENNE.
Here is a suggestion for some of
the farmers of the county especially
for th" progressive men who are anxi
ous to make the best possible use of
their land.
Co to Cheyenne in February and
attend the third annual Trans-Missouri
Dry Farming congress. The
session is to last for three days, Feb
ruary 23, 24 and 25th Inclusive. There
will be many pople there, many of
them being men who have had ex
tensive experience In farming in dry
land sections. They will give some
talks that will be worth hearing.
As the congress Is to be held in
February It will come at a time when
fjrmera will be at leisure. Further
more It will be held in a near-by
s( te and those who attend will not
have far to go.
During the mU-wlnter months au
t mobi!lng Is not good and thPre are
many farmers who do not care to
gi to California. Some of these might
charter a special Pullman and hie
away to Cheyenre for the dry frrn
r congrew.
Pendleton already has one good
Christmas present assured an Im
Droved public library. For this tha
ladies of the town are to be thanked
If the Bishop brothers can run a
woolen mill with the strength and
speed they used to show upon the
gridiron they will succeed.

Poor Eve! How lingering went thy
faltering steps.
How many glancing back from
woe-swept eye
Across the flawless beauty of those
ways;
O'er all the golden glory of thow
days,
And silver of thy moonlit Paradise,
Till He of the great fire-gleaming
sword
Had closed the star-gemmed gate up
on thy sighs.
And still throughout the weary years
we ee
Thy dragging footsteps o'er life's
scorching plain;
Still longing for the vision lost to
night,
Ahunger for what ne'er shall come
again.
We hear thy pleading, cry the lark
in vain
And know each day that, even as of
yore.
Some poor Eve weeps unparadlsed
once more.
Isabel H. Mason, In Llpplncott'a.
And climbing the ladder of silver
beams,
.Someone embarks for the land of
dreams.
All through the night, in the shining
thing,
Silent they float through the cool,
sweet dark,
Heeds they dip in the foamy clouds,
Where the summer lightnings glint
and spark.
And east or west, o'er the wind swept
sky.
The twinkling, golden bubbles fly.
Do vou ask me how Some One comes
home again
When deep in the west dips the sil
ver sphere?
Oh, never a thought do I give to that,
Perhaps the sun is the charioteer
I on'y know that the tiny bed
Pillows each morning a golden head.
