And they are not whining. Some people are glad if but half of the way Ues out of the shadow, or part of the day They see the sun shining Suppose you try smiling. This funny old World is a mir ror, you know, Turn its way with a sneer or the face of a foe. And you will see trouble. But meet it with laughter, and looks full of cheer, And back will come sunshine and love, true and dear. With blessings to double Suppose you try smiling. i 21 i to those j , All doors open widely who are glad; Too many lack courag too many are sad; Those near y"u need cheer ing. So, laugh with your burden; the way is not long; And if you look upward, your heart will grow strong, And skies will be clearing . uppose you try smiling. . Selected. ' 1 1 i. J . 1 LET'S SCPPOP.T IT. ! initiative By all means shold an initiative , measure be prepared in behalf of the Eastern Orecon normal school. A normal school. A bill providing adequate maintenance for the school should be drafted and! ubmittcd to the people in November, j The people can then say whether or j not they wish to maintain a normal: achool in eastern Oregon. That they do favor an eastern Oregon normal and will support the Weston insti tution this paper firmly believes. It was to the shame and disgrace of the state of Oregon that the nor mal schools were left without funds last winter. Though it took but a trifling sum to operate the Eastern Oregon normal, yet the school was left without a cent. Through the work of a little clique of senators the achool was even denied money with which to complete the school year Only through public donations se cured from the people of Weston, Pendleton and from the normal school faculty ami the students themselves waa enough money gathered to eke out the term. Since the Eastern Oregon normal waa forced to close for lack of funds the young people of eastern Oregon desiring normal training have gone to th Washington normals and to the normal school at Lewlston, Idaho. They are being educated at the ex pense of our sister states. However under the laws of Washington a stu dent from Oregon must pledge him elf or herself to teach for three years within that state after graduation or else pay a high entrance fee. Nearly all of them agree to teach In Wash ington and so become lost to this state. So It Is plain that If the present situation Is allowed to continue It will b5 but a few years until this state will be In a sorry plight with respect to teachers. With no provision for training teachers within the state and with many young people going away for Instruction and to teach the edu cational work In this state cannot but retrograde. If the standard of the public schools of eastern Oregon Is to bo maintained It Is absolutely neces sary that the Eastern Oregon normal be supported and so permitted to do the work for which It was establish ed. Let us see what we can do tow ards getting support for this Inst! tutlon. WAIT AND WATCH. The long discussed, much planned assembly scheme la now ready for use. An assembly, or In other words a con rentlon, to to be held In Portland In July. At that time a slate will be adopted and when the primary elee- tlon is held the machine clement throughout the entire state will get behind it and try to put it through. The former political "lenders" want get back Into power. They want tn do away wilh the "abuses" of the direct primary. They don't want candidates for nominations to come out by themselves, make promises di rect to the people and run for office upim their merits. They want them U oume to the bosses and the boss lets as they did ot old. A man Is for ward and self seeking who conies out for office of his own account with out first "fixing matters" with the powers that be. If a man wants to run for office he should go see Joe Sinmn or sonic other remnant of the rotten ring that once dominated this state. He should not look to the citizenship of the state. Only a dem agogue does that. At least this Js the view of the assemblyltes. However the people of Oregon ad opted the direct primary law. They did so for a purpose. They did so In order to wipe out hossism. In order to do away with galling. assinine system of allowing a few self ap I ointed political managers to name the officials and dictate the policies of this state. It is a pretty safe guess that the people have no desire to re turn to the old system. Some politi cians may be weary of the direct pri mary. But the rank and file of the pcople are entirely satisfied with It. Wait and watch what they do to the . slate that will be framed up by Mr. Simon and his fellow ringsters. THE FAHMEK IS INNOCENT. It is now evident that desperate ef forts will be made to fasten the guilt for the high cost of living upon the ; farmer the one man who is not i guilty.

I The trusts have the "goods" upon j them. They cannot expect to keep on j rolling up enormous profits and then j ask people to believe them when they i point to the farmer and say he is the rillan in the plot. NOW FOR THE $25,000. The Washinptmi-Oregon company j agrees to commence operations upon the raising of J25,000 by local peo ple. The company still wants $50,000 but will undertake- to raise the re- malnder of the fund themselves. Very well. The fact that the company will be gin its construction work and agree tc carry out the provisions of Its con tract after $25,000 has been raised Is '.ecldedly encouraging. It Is the best news the traction workers have had In many weeks. It means that the long hard fight for a traction system may be won." It is all but won now. With another day or two of good vig orous canvassing the sum may be brought up to the desired $25,000 mark. Then the traction system will be assured and bright days shall be it hand for Pendleton and for the people of this city. The Inland Herald, the new Spo kane daily, quotes the East Oregon- Ian as asking whether Pendleton shall fellow the Spokane way and build up this city or allow the town to shamble along the best wy it can. "Take the Spokane way, Pendletonlans," says the Herald. "Pull together and go to it. Get your traction lines as a begin ning." If the Japanese continue to ship arms and ammunition to the Fili pinos It may be necessary to send the old Second Oregon back to the orient. If not the famous Spanish war regi ment then the "Fighting" third regi ment O. N. O. The professors of the examining board found a Joke. Some of the teachers have not changed their age In years. Wonder if the teachers know any Jokes on the examining board? J. Tborburn Ross must go to the penitentiary for five years. This should be a warning to other bankers who "part their names in the mid die." Pendleton will win. Politeness pays enormous dividends on the investment. Tin: 'stacy or high rnorrrs Socialists sometimes speak of a capitalist this or a capitalist that. A great many people do not understand Just what we mean, and we are often sneered at as visionary and irrespon sible. Last fall our -Distinguished president made a speech in Boston. There was one phase of that speech which will make clear what we mean by a capitalist president. The hum of prosperity and the ecstacy of great profits, he said, are likely to dull our interest in reforms. What a niai'veiously illtiiniimting phrase the ecstacy of great profits. Properly undtrstood. that phrase should ilpen to all of us the mind and heart if Mr. Tat't. Perhaps he has sat down with great financiers when a melon was cut or a box of Hood li ver apples was opened up fan you imagine an ecstacy so ex tiuisile a.- l-i be a stockholder in a gnat trust which has laid aside mil lions of surplus profit which it decides to divide among you. Here is the most gorgeous graft thnt the mind of man can conceive of- It Is clean gain without any effort on our part. Mr. Taft knows how to reach the heart of the capitalist. He has done it to perfection in this phrase. He has tickled him with the most exquisite sensation known to the profit seeker, the ecstacy of great profits. We socialists say that Mr. Taft is a capitalists' president and you ask what we mean. We mean this, that President Taft is the repre sentative of the profit seekers, the two million or more little child slaves have no president.
