Furthermore those fellows de
nounced the American flag nnd prais

sort of thing does not set well with
right minded and patriotic men. The
star spangled banner of this republic
hrts been borne on many battlefields
where our fathers and forefathers
fought for freedom and the rishts of
man. Put ten years aaro the stars and
stripes carried deliverance to the op
pressed people of Cuba. And we may
fight again some day and we do not
like to have the colors reviled.
The I. W. W's. are to be pitied for
their ignorance and for their misery,
if they are in misery. Rut th y m.tst

There may be things that are wrong
in America. God knows there are.
But the wrongs will be righted in due
time by the people of this land. They
cannot be righted by men who preach
anarchy and insult the flag.

Mr. William Watson, the English
poet, is a very fair rhyms.ter but men
in general will not approve at all of
"The Woman With the Serpent's
Tongue," which he wrote in caustic
criticism of Mrs. Asquith, wife of the
rritish premier and her .laughter,
Miss Violet Asquith.
It is not In the code of the Anglo
Sr.xon tribe that men shall fight with
those of the fair and gentler sex. So
Mr. William Watron has been "getting
his'n" from many quarters and he de
serves it too. One of those who has
When you were just a girl or 'taken up the poetic cudgel in defense
of the Asquith ladies grills Watson
and contrasts him with Kipling who
"With his iron English pen has written
the strong code of men."
Of course Mrs. Asquith may be all
that Watson claims for her and more.
She may have a tongue so sharp that
it would make an ordinary serpent's
fangs seem like a bale of cotton bat
i tins- But that is her misfortune.

WE SHOULD FIGHT BACK.
In answer to the libelous and un- I
just statements made about this city
during the Walla Walla saloon fight
Mayor Murphy and the councilmen ;
have done right. The campaign that
13 on in Walla Walla is not Pendle
ton's fight it is true. Yet this city
has been dragged into the fight in
a very undesirable way for Pendle
ton. The officials and the people of
this city would be lacking in their
duty to Pendleton did they not make
every reasonable effort to disprove
the lies that have been circulated
regarding our town.
Ever since Umatilla county voted
Itself into the dry column the saloon
men have slandered Pendleton per
sistently and unjustly. All over the
northwest and even in California they
have sought to show that "prohibi
tion killed Pendleton." Misleading
pictures and misleading stories have
been published time and again. Most
of these slanders Pendleton has en
dured with patience and In silence.
But when they come to the very door
of the city and publish these things
In Walla Walla the dlvekeepers went
too far. Pendleton has turned upon
Its slanderers. Pendleton Is now
talMng back. We should keep it up.
Ev ry time one of these cheap shys
ters, hired by the dive keepers anj
breweries, shows his head he should
be branded for what he Is a slander
er. We should show the world that
while Pendleton may not have as
many dives and dive keepers as it once
did and may not have Its ola. time
horde of tinhorns, macques and pros
titutes It is still a live and bustling
little city. It la uch a city right now
and It Is going to be much better
than at present.
THE I. W. W'S.
The I. W. W. agitators have lost
out In 6pokane according to advices
from that city. They are now ready
to tfve up tne 'Sht and the authori
ties beUeve they will have little fur
ther trouble with them.
Incidentally it may be remarked
-that the I. W. W. men have not ren
dered good service to the cause of
labor or to the cause of socialism.
Those fellows tried to do something
they ha4 no right to do. They want--ed
to hold public meeting; In the busl
tieaa streets of Spokane. But Spo

uch meetings within the fire limits

nance, Inmn the streets are lntand-
Tlie famous Rudyard was thinking
of an entirely different matter at
the time but he expressed a very good
sentiment when he made old Hafiz
sa y :
"If she hath spoken a word, re
member thy lips are sealed.
And the brand of the dog is on him
by whom is the secret revealed.
If there be trouble to lleward
and a lie of the blackest can clear,
Lie, while thy lips can move or a
man is alive to hear."
Here's betting it will be some days
before another verse maker starts out
to revile a woman. It doesn't look
well.
THE CASE OF TRACY.
A young man Is now behind the
bars of the county jail charged with
the brutal murder of Andy Rabeal
near Umatilla a few weeks ago. Just
what the full facta are with respects
to tho prisoner's connection with the
crime the officers have not yet dis
closed. Even if it knew these facts
this paper would not care to com
ment upon his guilt or innocence for
that would be improper. The court
and the jury will try his case.
But If the facts that are disclosed
later show that Tracy, or Arnold,
whichever his real name may be, is
the guilty one his arrest should be
a powerful warning to others with
murderous minds. ' The young man
wandered far yet returned to the sec
tion where the crime of which he is
accused was committed. According
to cr!mologlsts there is some psychic
power that seems to draw murderers
back to the scenes of their crimes.
The knowledge of this tra.it often aids
in the capture of murderers.
However In the case or rhe young
man now in Jail Sheriff T. D. Taylor
and his deputies were the Important
feature. Sheriff Taylor knows how
to throw out a net that usually
brings results and the capture of
young Arnold was due to the instruc
tions sent forth from the sheriff's
office.
Leopold Is dead. It Is a shame to
say It but If all the stories that have
been told of Leopold are true some
extra firemen are now at work.
Every day that passes brings us
closer to the Christmas rush and
whirl. The sensible thing to do Is to
get busy before the last day.
Stand up for Pendleton j don't let
the world get false Impressions of
this town.
MODEIIX FEUDAL LORD.
An Interesting South American
character, type of a civilization that
has largely disappeared, d;ed at Li
ma. Peru, on Monday In the person
of Gen. Miguel Igles.as. He lived on
an estate of 2400 square miles, which
had been in his family since 1674, or
within forty years of the date of the
conquest of Peru by Pizarro. There
are 20,000 head of cattle on this es
tate and a population of about 4000
persons, over whom Iglesias ruled as
absolute lord. He made add enforced
their laws, provided for their educa
tion and moral welfare nnd never had
a rebellion. Drunkenness on any day

ed largely supported tho school it
was the life of tho feudal lor.ls nf tho
Middle Ages brought down Into the
twentieth century.
Gen. Iglesias took a nrOlnillpnt nli't
in the government of tho country,
particularly at the time of the war
with Chile. He was secretary of the
treasury and of war when hnonnt;
began. He conducted the ilnror, t

as to win high commendation. After
the surrender ho made his escape and
immediately began efforts to secure
peace at any price. It was through
him mainly that a treaty finally was
concluded with the victorious Chil
eans. He wa3 elected provisional
president of the country, but his rule
was disputed by Gen. Andres Caceres,
who headed the party which wished
to continue the war. A civil conflict
between Iglesias and Caceres result
ed, In which Iglesias was . defeated.
He retired for a time to Europe, but
later returned to his estate, which
he rarely left thereafter even to at

he was a member. He was 87 years

A Canadian correspondent trans
mits a delightful story, the respon
sibility for which, he says, rests with
the Rev. Dr. Fyles, the well-known
naturalist of Levis. In the province of
Quebec. A tourist, he says, came
to Quebec to view the winter scenery.
He put up at the St. Louis hotel, and
in the afternoon walked out to tho
Plains. He admired the pure, un
broken expanse of snow and the fine
view over the St. Lawrence and to
ward St. Jean Chrysostom. Next
morning he arose early and took the
sam course again to gain an appe
tite for breakfast. When lo, he saw
some strange tracks in the snow. They
were very large, and there was some
thing like the imprint of a spur be
hind each of them. While he stood
greatly puzzled an old Scotchman
drove along on a. traineau. Our friend
stopped him. nnd the following col
loquy occurred:
"Can you tell me. sir. what made
these tracks?"
"Tlj.5 snaw-shus."
"What huge tracks! They came
from the woods" (pointing toward
Wolfs field).
"O aye, that's awa."
"They came in the night?"
"Like as not."
"An.l they go toward the town.
Aren't the people afraid?"
"N'a-, na ' They're used to them."
And he drove on.
Out came the stranger's notebook,
and he wrote: "The Great Snort
shius, a stranRo creature with huge
feet, comes from the woods in the
night, and passes into the town; and
the people are not terrified. I must
Inquire further." Exchange.
Grandinft Sanderson is a wonderful
woman. She is in as good health to
df.y as ever in hor life, although sha
is over one hundred years old.
In a letter to tho Peruna Drug Hfj,
Co., she gives the highest credit to Fo
runa for her excellent health and ex
treme old age. P.cad what she says.
Surely the evidence presented by
such cases as these ought not only to
dispel prejudice against Peruna, but
inspire confidence in it
"I will send you a picture that wan
taken a few weeks before my hun
dredth birthday.
"I am a true friend of the Penma
Company. I havo derived great bou

say I regard Peruna a very great med
icine. I found out the merit of it a
good many years ago.
"A little more than two years ago I
contracted a veiy severe cold, which
resulted in la grippe. Owing to the
severity of the disease, and my ex

very critical. I employed na doc

used, and to-day my health is as good
