' "We cannot follow our own way- ward wills And feed our baser appetites and give Loose reins to foolish tempers year on year, And then cry "Lord, forgive me. - I believe" And straightway bathe In glory. Men must learn God's system Is too great a thing for that The spark divine dwells in each soul, and we Can fan it to a steady flame of light Whose lustre glides the path way of the tomb And shines on through Eter nity, or else Xeelect it till it simmers down to death And leaves us but the darkness of the grave. Ella Wheeler Wilcox. A BIG "SHAKE-UP." At last the long deferred has come about. Speaker Cannon has . been shorn of his power. He is still speak er it is true, but he Is barred from the committee on rules and his auto cratic reign is at an end. The events attending his virtual dethronement were so exciting that they are classed as the most Interesting the house has witnessed since the civil war. Doubtless many things combined to bring about the overthrow of Can non. It is history that there- Is al ways a certain antagonism to the speaker. By the opposition he is as sailed as a matter of course and some of his own party always oppose him. Therefore it is necessary for the epeaker to command the respect and support of the great majority of his own partisans. Otherwise the disaf fected element of his party will com bine with the opposition and over throw him just as they have done with Cannon. Ordinarily the speaker is saved from such humiliation by party loyalty and unity. But at the present time the republican party is not united. There are two wings of the party. They are the "regulars" or conservatives and the "Insurgents" or the liberals. At this time a great struggle is on be tween these two elements for the mas tery of the party. Cannon is a "reg ular" and along with others has 'sought to browbeat the Insurgents aid make them keep step or quit the party. But so powerful has the Insurgent sentiment become within congress and out that the Insurgents of the house have been able through combination with the democrats to upset the power of the regulars. The future course of the quarrel between the two elements within the party is going to be a subject of in tense Interest. The fight Is not over. It will probably be carried into the next national republican convention Which elemtn will triumph or will either element become dominant? Perhaps a compromise will be effect ed. Again it may be utterly impos sible to unite the warring elements and as a result there may be a com plete realignment of the political fcrces of the country. This much is certain at this time. A great "shake-up" is underway. GO TO IT." Pendleton will not complain if the Washington-Oregon traction company builds an electric line southward Into Grant county. There are two great sections with which this city needs electric line connections the Irrl gated section of the west end and the country to the southward. As to which direction offers the best In ducementa to roadbullders at this time that Is a matter that concerns the builders rather than the people of this city. Regarding a line southward certain ly there are many things favoring such a route. Such a line would pro vide an entrance into Grant county and an outlet for the products of that Interior region. At this time Grant county is "bottled Up." Its only con nection with the outside world con sists In the little line to Baker City. That line furnishes very roundabout service for Grant county. A much more direct connection with the out side world could be supplied through a line to Pendleton. Then a line southward would 're sult In the development and settle ment of the great area In the south ern part of Umatilla county. It would also open a way to the timber of that region which could then be brought to this city for manufacture. If a line of any sort is built to the south ward Pendleton must take steps to see that saw mills are established here. If the Washington-Oregon company wants to build a line southward the company may rest assured they will haw the support of the people of Pendleton and likewise of the "terri tory to be traversed. Go ahead and build the line. Then when that line is built construct a line from Pendle ton to the Columbia via the Umatilla project. EVOLUTION. In the early days the frontier stock man scoffed at the wheatralser. When a few "newcomers' undertook to fence up some of the range in this county and to attempt farming they were laughed at with scorn. The old timers did not think wheatraislng would pay and they said the range would be ruined.' Now the wheat bierons, fuedal successors of the old cattle kings, laugh at the Irrigatlon- ists and at the man who attempts diversified farming. Their arguments are in a class with those used by the stockmen against the pioneer wheat raisers. Irrigation won't do. Neither will intensified farming pay In the dry land section. The wheat baron does not want to see the big grain ranches broken up. But nature will take Its course in spite of opposition. It al ways does. Some day In the greater part of Umatilla county there will be a higher state of agriculture than prevails at this time. WHY NOT? Proper crosswalks add much to the appearance of a city and they like wise tend mightily to serve the con venience of people during stormy weather. But the crosswalks in Pen dleton don't do this. They fall of this for several reasons. To begin with crosswalks are entirely lacking in many places. Where walks exist they are of wood and are usually so delapidated as to be of little value. Pendleton needs more cross walks and it is the belief of this paper that they should be constructed of material more durable than wood. Bituiithlc walks are highly recommended and hey should be very serviceable. The East Oregonian would like to see some of the main traveled streets provided with cross walks of bitulithic or some other hard surface material. Why not build a few this spring or sum mer? The new Christian church dedica ted yesterday, adds much to the ap pearance of the river front on the north side. That section will appear to better advantage still after a boul evard has been built down the mill race to the academy and after the old cemetery tract has been Improved. Human Ingenuity has not yet reach ed the point where such accidents as train wrecks can be entirely guarded against. Therefore people can only offer words of sympathy for the unfor. tunate men who were killed In the wreck near Cayuse yesterday. Towns are , built by men of thusiasm; not by croakers. Prepare for the big teachers con- ventlon. The cannon has been spiked. GEO. ADE ON ADVERTISING. In an address before the Cleveland Ad Club, Mr. Ade said: "The chief thing in preparing an advertisement, if I may judge from my own brief experience in that line, Is to make your ad convincing. If your copy does not carry the convlC' tlon that you yourself believe in the article you are exploiting then you have not prepared a strong advertise ment. For Instance. I used to write the ads for a patent medicine concern that was pushing a cure for the tobac co habit. It was my task to write about the curse of being addicted to the use of deadly nicotine and how easily the habit could be overcome by using the remedy we were placing on the market. And the stuff had large sale because, when I wrote the ads, I was sitting smoking content edly at a cigarette or pipe, in a room thick with tobacco smoke, and I knew what I was writing about." Miss Gusher It was very good of you, Mr. Hlghroller, to name your yacht after me. - What Is she like?" Hlghroller Well, she's not much to look at, don'tcherknow, but she's very fast." iVHEX IT AIXi STARTED. When Adam met Eve he was bashful and shy, . Till at lost he grew bold and began to pay court (You may put ail your trust In this faithful report.) ,. , And he stammered and blushed every time she came nigh. "You're the prettiest girl that I ever have seen" And that's how it started. When Eve. with a beautiful blush on her face. Yielded shyly and sweetly to Adam's embrace, And put up her red lips for the true lover pact (You may set all this down as an ab solute fact). She inquired, while he breathed the fond names on his list: "Have you said that to all of the girls you have kissed ?"-, And that's how that started. When Adam asked Eve if she would be his bride. She looked up and looked down, and she sighed and she sighed. And she let him take hold of her lily white hand (This is history', now. as you must un derstand), v Then she said in a voice that was dulcetly low: "I must take time to think; 'tis too sudden, you know." And that's how that started. When they had been married a few years or so, Then Adam told Eve: "We're invit ed to go To a dinner and dance with some friends down in Nod." (This is truly authentic, although it sounds odd.) Eve replied with a sad and sorrowful air: "I can't go. Don't you see I have nothing to wear?" And that's how' that started. Wilber D. Nesbit In Life. THE TRAVELER. We thought he never went ' from home! He questioned us where each would roam: "Now, when thou thy steps do bend Where east and west their limits blend- Say whither, now. wouldst thou be gone?" "To that old land of spirit dawn Where sits the Sphinx her timeless seat, While burning sandstorms 'round her beat." I , "And thou?" "The candor I would track, That knows where sleeps Manco Ca pac. And all his treasures hid in eld." "And whither would thy way be held?" "The winter Palace gala night Frost fire and smiles and danger bright!" "And thou?'" "For me, the coral strand, Sheen islets in the south sea bland." Thus would we travel, were we free," We said, "but hardly shall it be ". "But," smiled our friend, "this very while, I see that thou has been by Nile; And thou has heard the rushing wings That guard old Andes' sleeping kings; And thou hast had .thy glittering night, L'nbidden by the Muscovite! And thou didst reach thine islands sheen; , Where thought hath been, there ye have been!" "But thine own self?" we asked our friend, "Where was thy journey's goal and end?" "Oh, I? The realm where I have been, 'Tls not on any chart, I ween; And If afar or near, without, Or if within, I still must doubt; 'Tls a good land, where'er it be. Whither the swift Thought carries me; And I return therefrom so glad A better Journey no one had!" . N. Y. Sun. A WOMANLY WOMAN. She stayed at home. You don't hear of her. She was too busy to talk. She was too well bred to brag. She didn't say she disliked hotels. She murmured not when Mrs. Rich drove off. She didn't declare resort life too vapid. She was making school dresses for wear later. She was taking her children for day excursions Into the open places. She had explained all she can of the flowers, trees and Insect life. She studies some good nature books aoling with the children before their excursions. She has superintended her child ren's, gams and their gardening ef forts In addition to her own work. And she's the "salt of the earth," this woman who is above aping those with more money, and who rejoices In a fine mind and body, which she puts to the best possible use, Philadelphia Record.

Illustrious among the names of wo men is that of Harriet Martlneau, Journalist, politician economist and. translator of the "Positive Philoso phy." Kew men have ever- surpassed her In Intellectual power, and among women It would be difficult to. find her mental superior. Harriet Martlneau was born at Nor wich, England, June 12. 1802. Her parents were of Huguenot stock, and at the time of Harriet's birth were well-to-do woolen manufacturers. Mr. Martlneau was ever busy with his work at the -mills, and Mrs. Martl neap was equally busy with keeping her house in order, so that, while they were most excellent people they did not seem to be able to find the time to love their children as much as they ought. At a very early age Harriet became Introspective a very unnatural and unfortunate condition for a little girl to be In and, having no world of af fection and romance to romp In, she turned to the world of books and thinking. In this way her Intellect was devel oped at the expense of her heart, and the divine sentiment of the soul was forced to wait upon logic and phi losophy. It was a case of Apollo in the service of Admetus, or of Prospero in bondage to Caliban. Hut Harriet Martincau's heart Was hard to kill. She was by nature a person of large sentimentality and profound sympathy, and In her twen tieth year she found herself in love. She spoke several languages; ! she was deeply read in history, art. sci ence and pholosophy; the force of her intellect was acknowledged by all but in her heart was the voice that these things failed to fill. She loved and loved in vain her parents refusing to permit the atten tions of the one upon whom she had set her affection. By and by the young man died, and Harriet never loved again. Then 'It was that the brilliant young woman, since she was not permitted to love, resolved that she would make it up In thinking in thinking more steadily and deeplly than ever be fore. Since the world of her heart had been blasted, she would turn, more resolutely than ever, to the world of the intellect. The result came In the shape of the writings which were powerful in their time, and are still influencing the thoughts of men. For the London Daily News Miss Martlneau wrote hundreds of edito rials which made the denizens of the great capital think as they had never boon mmle to think hpforo in h..- Htr.rir-R ,.f noiitifu'i or-nnnmv she told the truths which set all the kings of Europe and their henchmen a-swearlng. The great "White Czar" got so mad that he Issued an order for the "destruction of all the books of Harriet Matineau found In Russia." These stories of political economy, circulating by hundreds of thousands did a great deal toward pre paring Europe for the advance that is coming to it in these days, and the cause of humanity was at the same time mightily assisted lly the many able and Inspiring articles that Miss Martlneau wrote for the various mag aznies. But Harriet Martlneau's greatest work was her translation of Auguste Compte's "Positive Philosophy." By that she is best known, and by that she established her surest guarantee to fame. ' The translator we may almost say the recreator of the "Positive Phi losophy" Is sure of a literary Immor tality. While the history of phi losophy lives, along with It will live the fair name of Harriet Martlneau. Rev. T. H. Gregory In the San Fran cisco Examiner. GUIDE TO PROFESSIONS.
