A PRAYER.
P- born anew, dear Lord, be
born again,
Unto the hunger of the sons of
men!
Whose famine is too bitter to be
fed
By jiiiy lower food than sacred
We thirst for hope and, tast
ing, drink it not.
We choke for joy denied a bar
ren lot.
We starve for love, find, starv
ing, throw the dice
That may, or may not, pay
love's precious price.
Our trembling hands infirm,
have lost the wit
To grasp Thy holy cup. Lord,
give us it!

of by the weak,
it with brimming rest the
weary seek.

It is rather refreshing to read that
two prominent women, Mrs. O. H. P.
Belmont and Miss Anna Morgan,
daughter of J. p. Morgan, are interest
ed In the strike of the shirtwaist mak.
ers of New York. According to press
reports those ladles have taken active
charge of the slrike and will try to
win it. This Is an unusual course for
the aristocratic fair ones to take. As
a general thing women of this type are
interested in social affairs or In dis
cussing the probable marriage of some
millionaire's feeble minded daughter
t this or that gentleman with a title
but no brains, money or character.
If a few more of the Idle rich women
would mix up in such affairs as the
shirtwaist strike the action would
serve to narrow the growing chasm
bttween the rich and the poor of this
land.

Washington adopt a law similar to the
Nebraska law. Under this law saloons
close at & o'clock in the evening and
are under such other restrictions as to
insure, decency. Governor Hay be
lieves that In Washington such a law
would be preferable to a state wide
prohibition law.
So it would of course. Such a law
would likewise e beneficial in Ore
gon. It would probably -save Oregon
from state wide prohibition. Such a
law would look to eliminating the un
desirable features of the saloon busi
ness yet at the same time permit the
legitimate demand for liquor to be
met in a legitimate way. The East
Oregonian has frequently advised the
drafting o such a law for Oregon and
till so advises. Such a law would
meet the demand for saloon reform
and would render state wide prohibi
tion unnecessary.
However we hear of no move tow
ards submitting such a law to the peo-j
pie at the next election. At this time
It looks like Oregon will have to take
Its choice between prohibition and
"wide open" saloons buc'.i as now o'j
tain in the "wet" sections of the state.
If the fight is waged along these lines
It Is very probable that the state of
Oregon will go into the "dry" column.

IT WOULD BE FINE.
At North Yakima they are erecting
a large auditorium in the central por
tion of the town and the building will
be Intended primarily for convention
purposes. It Is an improvement that
North Taklma has long wanted,
Pendleton too needs a structure of
this kind. It would fill many needs.
Pendleton Is a convention city and It
should sustain Its reputation as such.
Then frequently there are large local
gatherings for which an auditorium In
needed. ' M'
An auditorium is usually so built
that It may be used for varied pur
noses. For Instance it serves to ac
comodate Indoor athletic games such
as basketball. At this time this city
has something like six basketball
tm. Yet there is no suitable room
in the city for such games to be held.
The Commercial association gym
nasium is too small to accommodate
a crowd while the high school gym
nasium Is both small and inaccei.,bie.
Under the present armory law, pass
ed by the' legislature last winter, it
should be possible for this city to se
cure a good armory and auditorium
on very advantageous terms. Under
the law the state will erect an armory
or a guard company, such as company
L, provided the city or county where
in such armory is built, meets half the
expense.
Whether or not Pendleton shou'd
take up at this time the matter of try
ing to secure a building of this sort
the East Oregonian Is not sure. Prob
ably this improvement should be made
secondary to the securing of a new
