HILL-HARRIMAN MERGER.
' An announcement of vast Import
ance to the northwest Is that concern
ing the agreement reached between
Hill and Harriman with respect to the
line between Portland and Seattle.
Just what the agreement will mean
the future must show. It
promises j
some benefits, but the announcement I
of the agreement also has a very Cu-
bious sound.
In the past there has been objec
tion in Oregon to Harrlman's con
structing a line from Portland to Se
attle. Instead of spending millions
upon that line Oregonians have
wanted Harriman to build branch lines
Ir. Oregon. They have argued that he
should spend his money in Oregon
because he has earned it in Oregon,
not In Washington. If the abandon
ment of the line to Seattle means that
Harriman will build some of the long
needed lines In this state, then the an
nouncement is good news for Oregon.
But it will be time enought to cele
brate after the new lines have been
built.
But the feature about the Hill
Harriman deal that is not gratifying
Is the apparent complete understand
ing between the two railroad kings.
In the past the fight between Hill and
Harriman for the business of the
northwest has been most beneficial
to the country. It has resulted in
lower rates and in the development
of country that would otherwise have
been neglected. More than one com
munity has played Hill against Har
riman with good results. The rivalry
between the two railroad systems has
been the northwest's star of hope and
the announcement regarding the Seattle-Portland
merger comes as a
cloud to obscure its rays.
But it Is useless to hope that Hill
and Harriman will continue to war.
That they and the Interests they rep
resent should get together for pur
poses of mutual benefit Is perfectly
natural. The only hope lies in the
regulation of rates by means of com
missions. In case governmental regu
lation should prove a failure there will
then be but one recourse and that to
governmental ownership.
PROGRESS AND MORALITY.
No ration can live and go forward
unless the rank and file of Its people
observe the common rules of morality
and woman Is treated with the high
consideration that is her due. No bet
ter example of this is needed than that
furnir-hed by the Turkish empire, a
land where women have always been
held in virtual slavery.
"Six hundred years ago there were
no more cultured people, no braver
people, than the leading spirits of the
Ottoman empire, says a writer In
Godwin's Weekly. The only hope for
the empire now Is that the sons of
alien mothers may redeem the land.
"It has sunk so low that there Is
little honor left among the men; they
have become cruel beyond belief, the
government corrupt beyond descrip
tk n. and th men In office almost all
th!-ves and willing to do anything
rather than make an honest strugglo
for fortune and place.
"The nations of Europe would long
ago have destroyed the government
except for their own Jealousies and
their land lust, and lust Tor power.
The Turkish nation has not been fit to
live for the last one hundred and fifty
years. It has been lost In every spe
cies of debauchery and cruelty, and
that must be the result where women
are first held as playthings and then
a3 slaves. And when a company of
priests reach the point where they be
come In reality the government, the
inevitable result is tyranny and de
gredation." But the Turks are not the only peo
ple who have been lax In their treat
ment of women and in observance of
the moral code. Other countries also
have been itcreant. but In each case
national degeneration has been the
result. The process of life is upward
and no nation can go forward when
its people persist in low living and re
fuse to render to the mothers and
s,.'ters of men the homage that Is
Justly due them.
CUT THE WEEDS.
Just now many people of the city
are cutting the weeds from in front
of their curbs in compliance with the
city ordinance. If all will but com-H
ply with the law thg appearance of
the streets in the residence section
will be vastly Improved. Further
more the cutting of the weeds at this
time will mean less weeds with which
to battle next summer. Household
ers who allow weeds to seed out this
summer will have a larger crop than
ever next year and their neighbors
also ' will suffer through their ne
gligence. Cut the weeds and cut them
now.
President Taft Is said to have with
drawn from a New York playhouse
because he did not approve of the
performance. What an opportunity'
for the show's press agent. That
play should now be able to draw a
packed house anywhere and this In
spite of the announcement made that
there are other shows In Gotham
even more open to criticism than the
one attended by the president.
The Portland rose show will be
something worth seeing and so It Is
not remarkable that the contest for
queen of the Umatilla county float Is
beginning to liven up.
Now if another million or two can
b(; added to the value of the prospec
tive crop of this county local business
men and farmers will feel still better.
If the pioneer gathering in Weston
can but bring on another half inch
oi rain or more the whole country
will unite in a vote of thanks.
Attorney McMahan seems to be a
chronic knocker. What is his reason
for desiring to interfere with prais
worthy improvements?
DISCIPLINING "BUGGSY,"
"Bugs" Raymond belongs to the old
type of professional baseball player.
He is a big child, thoughtless, Improv
ident, a wonder of efficiency at his
craft, but totally irresponsible outside
of it. He has been pitching for sev
eral on "tall-ender" clubs Indiffer
ently, In spite of natural gifts, be
cause always out of condition. This
year McGraw "bought" him. He
bought him because of his capacities
and because he thinks he can "han
dle him. And he is doing so. Thus
wise: He does not let him have any mon
ey. "Bugs" Is married, and his wife
Is an Invalid. The contract between
McGraw and "Bugs" provides that
the latter's salary each month shall
go In toto to Mrs. Raymond. And
Mrs. Raymond Is under contract not
to let "Bugs" have any of it. Result,
a perpetually penniless "Bugs" living
an enforced simple life. Once in a
great while, at intervals Judiciously
selected, McGraw lets him have a
dime for an ice cream spda. Also
he buys him clothes If very much
needed. This method worked like a
charm while I watched during the
spring training. ' For the first time
In his life "Bugs" found himself liv
ing a thoroughly hygienic life, color
ed by semi-hourly trots around the
park, and by the time I left he was
liking It. His body, at first puffy,
had gradually regained the lines of
an athlete, his eyes were clear and
bright, his features sharp, cut; he
had acquired a professional pride In
In the mastery of his craft. "Bugs"
Raymond will do some pitching this
year. James Hopper, in the June

Here is what the leading lard packer says in a recent advertisement:
"Leaf is the cream of lards. There is not enough of it to supply one-tenth of the
people, and so it goes only to those who insist upon it."
Does it not stand to reason that if there is only enough of the proper fat
produced to make pure leaf lard toipply one-tenth of the demand that the chances
are nine to one against your getting pure lard? The only absolute protection
against getting common hog fat when you buy lard is by buying Cottolene instead.
. Cottolene is a pure vegetable product made from cotton seed oil, refined by
our exclusive process. It contains no hog fat and makes palatable, nourishing,
food which will agree with the most sensitive stomach.

There's the lure of the foaming
rapids.
There's the voice of the roaring falls.
And the winds that blow
And the streams that flow
And the wild, free life that calls.
Oh! the camp on the lonelv prairie,
In the cool of the summer night,
And the hills afar
Where the lone trails are
Bathed in the starry light.
Oh! the toss of the sloop In the trade-
wind
With the round tropic moon on high
Or loaf all day
Where the monkeys play
'Xeath the cloudless southern sky.
Oh" the click of the flashing racquets!
Oh! the howl of the husky pack"
And the lonely mush
Through the northland's rush;
As you follow the frozen track.
There's the plain and the stream and
the mountain;
Each calls with a voice of it's own.
There's the saddle's grip
And the paddle's dip,
And the gleam of the camp fire lone.
Then away from the crowded city!
With Its endless din and strife.
To the woodland pool
And the quiet cool
And the charm of the wanderer's life!

IX THE LONG AGO.
The yielding clasp of
your
burning
hands
I have felt in the long ago!
And the sway of the sun of those
hazel strands
I have loved in the long ago!
But a veil shrouds dark the forbidden
past.
As the mists well up in the swirling
blast,
For in an abyss the planet is cast.
Where we dwelt In the long ago!
Those luring lips that shame the
morn
I have kissed in the long ago!
And nameless delights of their glories
were born,
That were mine in the long ago!
Through garden agleam in exotic
bloom
We wandered and Mayed, not heeding
the doom,
That wove around us relentless Its
loom
Where 've loved In the long flgor
i
What matters the past the days that
are dead
Though they lived in the long ago!
But let us be living, and loving instead
As we loved in the long ago!
So love shall be monarch and ruler of
all,
And yield we our bodies and souls to
his thrall.
Though crushing and crumbling the
universe fall;
We were one, In the long ago!

him a cold bow, by which you take
all the geniality out of him."

I have known of instances which were
