TI1K OF REST.
Beyond the last horizon's rim,
Beyond adventure's farthest
quest,
Somewhere they rise, serene and
dim.
The happy, harry Hills of
Rest. .
Upon their sunlit slopes uplift
The castles we have built in
Spain
While fair amid the Summer
drift
Our faded gardens flower
again. '
Sweet hours we did not live go
by
To smoothing note, on scent-
ed wing;
In golden-lettered volumes lie
The songs we tried in vain to
sing.
They all are there: the. days of
dream
That build the inner lives of'
men;
The silent, sacred years we
deem
The mipht be. and the might
have been.
Some evening when the sky is
gold
I'll follow day into the west;
Nor pause, nor heed, till I be-
hold
The happy, happy Hills of
Rest. .

WE Ml'ST RAISE IT.
In spite of all that has been said
regarding the proposed traction sys
tem there are many people who do
not yet have a proper conception of
the real importance of the present
move. This is doubtless due to the
fact that they have not given the mat
ter sufficient consideration.
The traction movement was not
undertaken merely to provide a street
car service for Pendleton. Such a
service will be of unquestioned bene
fit to the city it is true. Yet this fea
ture of the move is Insignificant com
pared with other features. What
Pendleton really wants Is interurban
line connecting lta tributary terri
tory with the city and additional elec
trical power so as to foster manufac
turing within the city and incidentally
to give us a better and doubtless
cheaper lighting service. These things
the Washington-Oregon company
promises and obligates itself to fur
nish. If the new company will carry out
lti program, as those who have In
vestigated the matter believe It will
do, Pendleton will be placed In a most
fortunate position. The city has a
great and largely undeveloped coun
try tributary to It. If only the proper
traction connections can be establish
ed with this territory the business of
this growing empire will he assured
for Pendleton for all time to come.
At least Pendleton will be the natural
metropolis and will be in position to
acquire much additional business.
The East Orcjronian believes the bus
iness people of the city may be relied
upon to secure the business that will
bo open to them and through fair and
proper treatment to hold that business
afu-r It has ence been acquired.
Just -now the question is, are the
property owners and business men of
Pcndloton poing to take sufficient in
terest in this subject to Insure that a
start will be made towards establish
ing an interurban system. The East
Orr-eoninn believes they will. The
traction rnov ment is growing In
strength every day and this paper U
confident that within the next week
or two weeks Pendleton will raise the
amount needed to insure that the en
terprise be undertaken. Pendleton
must rake the money. It would be
the h eighth of folly to refuse an offer
such as Is now open to the city.
WHY SO SECRETIVE.
An order has been Issued for for
estry men not to talk for publication.
Why Is this? Has the forestry bureau
under the new regime some secrets
it does not wish the public to share?
Does not the government wish to give
out information regarding the man
agement of the forest reserves? If
not why not. There are many people
ln have r. iiMins for desiring such
information. Stockmen and sheep
men need to learn regarding range
rules, changes in grazing allotments
and n host of other things. Why tiit
allow the forestry men to speak for
publication? Oftentimes In the past
forestry officials have given some
very valuable advice.
TJhe order requiring forestry men
ti keep their lips sealed does not
sound good and it will not inspire
confidence. It smacks of absolutism
and indicates that the government
may have things it wishes suppressed.
Whenever the lid is ordered people
naturally wonder what is being con
cealed. Tiny usually resent efforts
tii keep information from them ex
cepting in cases where the general
welfare really demands that secrecy
be maintained. Since the forestry'
service is doing work that is largely
of an educational nature it would
seem that the more publicity the ser
vice invokes the better. Certain it Is
that the forestry service through Mr.
Pinchot's muchly maligned yet high
ly valuable publicity bureau has suc
ceeded in creating some mighty
wholesome sentiment in favor Of con
servation. But possibly there are
people who want to take no chances
of a further growth of sentiment
along this line.
IX THE DAY'S WORK.
The other night the Commercial
association had a very spirited elec
tion. Yet it passed over ' amicably
considering the amount . of Interest
taken. On the part of those who won
and on the part of those who lost
gcod feeling was generally displayed.
Of course some sore spots were made
as is always the case. But there is no
reason why they should not quickly
heal. Life is too short for people to
harbor petty prejudices or animosi
ties. Another thing is the fact that
the city of Pendleton is in need of' a
united people. The city is now dealing
with the biggest proposition that has
been up In its history and the people
need to pull together. Personal and
factional differences should be cover
ed up with the robe of Tocal patrio
tism and all should stand shoulder to
shoulder in working for a greater
Pendleton. The Commercial associ
ation election was an important af
fair it u true. It was particularly
interesting to those most directly con
crned. nut it is over now and after
all it was but an incident in the day's
work.
IS IT XOT SAFE?
Prospective subscribers to the
traction fund should bear in mind
that they are asked to pay no money
at this time. The Washington-Oregon
company asks for no money un
til that company has first built its
line in this city and thereby showed
in an unmistakable manner just what
sert of work it will do. The third
payment is not to be made until the
company has brought Its power to
the city and electrified Its line with
its own current. To merely build the
six miles of line in and around the
city will require a heavy expense. Tbe
company will probably spend two
or three times as much money on this
work as it will get from local people.
It costs money to built electric lines.
Then the company binds Itself to
spend at least $10,000 In equipping
and Improving a park. Under these
circumstances how can local people
lose by backing the company? Is It
not pretty safe that If Pendleton puts
up its money it will get what it bar
gains for?
Spring is almost at hand and there
should be little loss or suffering
among .the stockmen and flock
masters of this section. People do
not run stock nowadays as they did
in the olden times. They now pre
pare to feed and care for their stock
and In consequence do not suffer the
old time losses.
Terrible mine disasters are oepur
Ir.g daily and it is small wonder the
miners r.re beeominr incensed at the
lack of proper safeguards for human
life. It might help the situation out
to require some of the mine owners
and directors to take a few chances
down In the shafts.
Pendleton now has nn excellent
chance to get In line to grow and
grow ns It has never grown before.
Are we going to take advantage of the
chance or will we through timidity
pessimism or other reasons pass the
opportunity by?
Walt until Pendleton gets interur
ban linos and becomes a real city.
Then our postal business will Increase
by Jumps and we will soon have an
office of the first class.
Join the Progress Club and work
for the Greater Pendleton. Every,
body belongs that wants to.
THE WORLD'S DESIRE.
Over this earth of busy hand and
brain
Comes call to an awakening,
tl stirs the farmer toiling in his grain;
With inigtby echoes breaking.
It beats upon the hearts of poor and
great,
And sounds triumphant in the halls
of state.
Ciodilcss of universal peace.
Voicing the world's desire,
Look on gun weighted lands and ar
mored seas
I.ust to kill and lire.
An, I plead, with tongue inspired, the
nobler part,
Man's bloodless conquest of man's
prideftil heart.
Lead to the light our kings of pass
ing hour.
Where- wreaths of freedom shame the
crowns of power;
Rid them to stand on high,
And with all-seeing eve,
Self- free, behold the pigmy globe
spin past;
How mocking, then, are pomp and
trumpet blast!
What energy misused the clash and
play
Of armies fattiug on the nations'
breath!
What travesities the Dread naughts
of a day!
The council bidding for the sword of
death!
Show them the accusing millions of
war's dead
From graves untimely rise
To shriek with flaming eyes;
Wherefore for vanity shall blood be
shed?"
And for their guidance, faltering as
iov prev.
foint out the illumined way.
Immortal with the words the Master
said:
"Thou shalt not slay."
This heedinx. they would be
Greater than fame, brothers to lib
erty. What laurels would be theirs,
Forever blessed in prayers
P.y mothers shrinking at the ancient
story
Of war and vengeance throned as
gods of glory!
May our Round Table Tales in time
to be
Recount great battles fought
By man for man!
The march of right with tolerant
' ' fraught
And in the van
Tbe radiant banner of humanity!

WATERPROOF FOLk.
I looked from my window, !
And. dancing together, j
I spied three queer people j
Who loved the wet weather.
The turtle, the frog and the duck all
joined hands
To scamper so gaily upon the wet
sfinds.
The turtle was coated
In shell to defy
The pattering raindrops.
And keep him quite dry.
The frog in green jacket was gay as
cbuld be.
"My coat will shed water just see it!"
said he,
The duck shook his webfoet
And ruffled his feathers;
Cried he. "Rain won't hurt me!
I'm dressed for all weathers.

in the sky,
I oil my gray feathers and k' ep very

The 1800 acre stock ranch I adver
tise Is not like the ads you usually
see for the purpose of selling prop
erty Just for speculation or gain. This
Is a high grade proposition, and the
owner Is making good money, but
his health has failed him, he Is now
under the doctor's care, and Is not
able to look after his business, con
sequently is obliged to sell. ' The land
Is highly Improved, 90 head of fine
cattle, 10 head of horses, wagons,
farm machinery, fine chickens, and
two stoves. You can buy this land
now at $12 per acre, the land is worth
the money, the other property is a

ft 1ST OF RAISING WHEAT.
Y. l Mansfield of the executive
board of the farmers' educational and
co-operative union believes in "put
ting it strong" when discussing the
meat boycott.
Parts of Mr. Mansfield's Interview
in Saturday's Spokesman-Review were
well within the bounds of reason, as.
for example, when he pointed out
that the stockgrower would be the
chief sufferer from a falling off in the
demand for meats. But when he as
serted that on an average every bush
el of wheat we raise costs us $1," ha
discredited his other statements, in
cluding the cost of producing beef and
pork.
In 20 years the price of wheat in
the inland empire has gone as high
as $1 on oniy one or, two occasions. It
has been as low as 25 and 30 cents,
a price that spelled ruin for the far
mers. The general average for 20
years has been about 60 cents, and
there is undoubtedly a profit at that
figure. Careful farmers can make a
little money at 40 cents. Many of
them grew well-to-do at 50 cents, and
hundreds of fortunes have been made
in the inland empire by growing
wheat at 60 cents.
With the general average around
6n cents great wealth, ns everybody
can see. has been made at wheatgrow
ing. and when the price rises to 75

The holiday season was at Its

of the most vigorous of the baggage
