I know a land where streets are paved With the things we meant to achieve; It is walled with the money we meant to have saved. And the pleasures for which we grieve. The kind words unspoken, the promises broken, And many a coveted boon Are stowed away there In the land . somewhere The land of "Pretty Soon." It is farther at noon than It is at dawn, Farther at night than at noon; Oh, let us beware of the land down there The land of "Pretty Soon." Chicago Inter-Ocean. IS IT XOT SENSIBLE? E. H. Bennett of Chicago has arriv ed in Portland to take a. posftion with the Portland civic league at a. salary f $500 per month. He will be en gaged for at least a year in working out the "City Beautiful" program. He starts out with a fund of $20,000 at the disposal of the league. There are people who will scoff and neer at this proposition. They will ' say it is absurd to try to do anything along the line proposed by the city beautiful league. But why is the scheme not practicable? Portlanl has not reached the .limit of its growth. It will continue to advance as the northwest becomes settled and In due time will no doubt attain the J. 600, 000 population of which the -civic league has dreams. Then why rot try to shape this growth so as to promote the maximum development and at the same time make the city pleasing to the eye? In Portland had a civic league been formed many years ago that .place would not be cursed with narrow streets; there might be a subway under the river thus obviating some ot the bridges that now block navi gation on the Willamette; Portland might now have Its long sought gar bage crematory and the city would not have to pay the fabulous sum it is required to pay for park sites. In the view of this paper the Port land civic league should be able to accomplish much good and a similar league in Pendleton could likewise find much to do. Pendleton is also going to do some building. Why not pay some attention to the architec ture? A man would not erect a big building without having the scheme worked out by an architect. Why should a city build without reference to any plan? LOS ANGELES PATRIOTISM. If there Is a more patriotic city than Los Angeles, we do not know where It Is, says the Inland Herald. Spokane Is pretty strong in this line, but the Southrons certainly exceed us in one respect they gag the disloyal, expa triate the unpatriotic, and warn the Imprudent We are not Insinuating that there Is a Ku-KIux organization down am ong the orange growers, but here Is an Instance that shows how the Los Angelans have borrowed an idea from Stepnlak's "Underground Russia," that wonderful story of Siberia: Some months ago a leading San Franciscan went to Los Angeles, stay ed at a prominent hotel, played bil liards, and became chummy with one of the clerks. In an unguarded mo ment the clerk confided to the guest that business was a little dull, that many business houses were vacant, and that some lines of business had been overdone. A few days later the visitor chanced to remark to one 'of his friends, a merchant, that he noticed "many Idle persons, a few hundred vacant hous es," and so on. His assertion was challenged. Of course he innocently quoted the observation of the clerk to corrobrate his opinion. That apparently "closed the IncN di nt." A few days later the clerk. just recovering from a great fright. said to the San Franciscan: "Say you almost cost me my job by repeat ing what I said about dull times." The clerk then related how he had been waited on by a committee of three prominent men, members ot some sort of society that mlfiht he called the Defender of the Faith Com mittee at any rate they were jealous ly guarding the reputation of the city. j.reventing injurious rumors, whether true or false. The clerk became as wise as a ser pent ever after, but he began to look into the workings of the inquisitorial body that had warned him. He dis covered so the story runs that the ramifications and activities of the de fenders are such that the man who fails to heed the warning is discharg ed from employment and put on a blacklist that makes life a burden m Los Angeles. v THEY S1IOVTD HEW ARK. In Portland the plumbers trust is or. the grill. Several plumbing firms jhave complained of being unable to I purchase supplies of wholesalers be cause they are not memoers oi mc master plumbers' association. The members of the alleged trust are al accused of having caused the city plumbing ordinance to be invalidated and of having worked for the pass age of another ordinance to further strengthen their hold on the situ ation. As an outcome of the discloures made the boycotted plumbers have been able to 'secure supplies and are also having all kinds of business ten dered them out of sympathy. Many orders have been 'phoned them by parties who say they desire to aid them in fighting the combine. On the other hand the men in the com bination are threatened with prosecu tion not only In the Portland munici pal court but also in the federal court. This is bad weather for trusts. Es pecially for those that operate upon a small scale. Now if the Portland plumbing combine was a real, genu ine octopus like the Standard oil com pany or the sugar trust, it could break the law with Jmpunity and get away. But since the trust is a small, amateurish affair the members had better look out. It would be just their luck to have to go to Jaii. According to a London estimate the failure of parliament to pass the bud get will disorganize the money market of the world.- It is entirely possible for the money market is afraid of its own shadow. However the worM seems to get along some way. From appearance Colfax has suf fered much the same as Pendleton suffered several years ago, though the flood at Colfax has evidently In flicted more damage than did our de luge. Build a big levee, Colfax. The numerous trains in the O. R. & X. yard this morning gave Pen dleton a decidedly metropolitan ap pearance. It is not every town that has seven or eight passenger trains on Its tracks at one time. Bad weather would not be so disa greeable in Pend;ton were more of the streets Improved. At this time some of'the thoroughfares close to the business section resemble hog wol lows. That was a far reaching tragedy enacted at Wellington. All over the country there are saddened homes be cause of that long list of dead and missing. Pendleton needs a band and it is encouraging to note the musicians are getting busy. The question of the hour Is, "What streets are to be used by the traction company?" Brush away that pessimistic frown and see how it feels to smile. THE SUPERSEDED.

Since ay first trial of it I can truly say that it has given complete satisfaction, whether it is used alone, as "shortening' ' , or in combination with butter in pastry, biscuits, etc., or in frying; it has never disappointed me. I wish it were in my power to install this pure vegetable product in the esteem of my fellow housewives in place of the gross, and often diseased, animal fats. I rarely recommend any proprietary article in print, however good I may think it. but after many years use has proved to my household and myself the excellence of COTTOLENE, I feel Justified in departing from the self-imposed rule. I honestly believe it to do the very best thing of its kind ever offered to the American housekeeper, and I as glad of the opportunity to make my conviction public' , NOTE "MARION HARLAND" is well known as one of the foremost cooking experts In the United States. She Is the author of the famous "Marlon Harland Cook Book." and her articles on culinar subjects are widely read and highly prized. Her high standing and long experience with COTTOLENE make this endorsement particularly strong and con vincing, and it is doubly gratifying because of the fact that it came entirely unsolicited. LABOR WORLD NOTES I The new scale of the Minneapolis, Minn., Hod Carriers' and Building Laborers' union calls for an eight- j hour day at 37 1-2 cents an hour, a ; pay day at least every two weeks. ! and double time for overtime. I The officials of the Bricklayers' I union have been notified that the gen- , eral headquarters of the international , Hod Carriers' and Build. ng Laborers' union of America has been removed to Albany, X. Y. The question of establishing an old age pension fund is being consider- : ed by several of the big International unions. The old age pension fund of the Tnternat'onal Typographical un- 1 ion has been to $218,000. ' The Central Federated Union of New York City has issued an appeal ' Xo Samuel Gompers and other nation- j al laber lenders demanding the or- . ganization of a national labor party j in this country modeled on the lines . of the British labor party. j The New York Central railroad has ! granted an Increase in wages to all Its trainmen and laborers. This state ment was made by J. P. Bradley, rep resenting Vice President. Smith, who said the exact rate of increase would be fixed by compromise. AFTERWHILE.
