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.
A nearer comers crowd the fore
We drop behind.
We have labored long and sore
Times out of mind
And keen are yet must not regret
To drop behind.
Yet there are of us some who grieve
To go behind.
Stanch, strenuous souls wno scarce
believe
Their fires declined
And know none cares, remembers,
spares
Who go behind.
'TIs not that we have unforetold
The drop behind.
We feel the new must oust the old
In every kind,
But yet, we think, must we, must we,
Too, drop behind?
Thomas Hardy.

What "Marion Harland" Thinks of
"Nature's Gift From The Sunny South"
' New York, December 15, 1906
The N. K. Fairbank Company,
Dear Sirs:
Many years ago I discontinued the use of lard in my kitchen and substituted for lt-
as an experiment-.COTTOLENE. then comparatively a new product. ' .
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.

The old mother waits us there,
Peering, as the time grows late,
Down the old path to the gate.
How we'll click the latch that locks
In the pinks and hollyhocks,
And leap up the path once more
Where she waits us at the door.
How we'll greet the dear old smile
And the warm tears afterwhile!
Ah, the endless afterwhile!
Leagues on leagues and mile on mile,
In the distance far withdrawn.
Stretching on, and on, and on.
Till the fancy is footsore
And faints in the rust before
The last milestone's granite face.
