Official City and County Paper.
I wish that all the children of
the city's grimy street
Were out here with these wild
flowers beneath this sky
of blue;
I'd like to see their faces as they
scampered o'er these
hills
I'd like to see them happy,
wouldn't you?
!
:
They're stunted, maimed and
weary' and their eyes are
far away;
The sunshine never sees them
and they never know 'tis
true.
There's no flower in the alley
and no perfume in the
air
Oh, I'd like to see them happy,
wouldn't y-ou?
-
Ye
Sorry jest to sing at Easter,
did it unto Me,"
With the children all in prison
and the green fields far
away.
Easter lilies wait their handclasp
where the sunshine
cleaves the blue -
Oh,
I'd like to see them hap
py, wouldn't you?
KEEP VP STEAM.
The big helper engines on the
mountain division keep up steam even
when they are not at work. The idea
is to have the engines In readiness for
service when needed. The call may
tome suddenly and an engineer would
ot like to be caught with a cold
boiler.
Now it so happens that the bulk
of the business men of this city are j
the ones. They usually have up a I
fail head of steam and whether there
is much to do or not they are ready
for action. They are . enterprising
and aggressive. To those men Pen
dleton owes its reputation for being
a bustling, prosperous towns.
But there are some few baslness
men in Pendleton who do not carry
enough steam to haul a handcar on
a down grade. Because business In
their lines may be a trifle dull they
mope and moan. They dont work for
business. They won't even adver
tise. They let the whiskers grow upon
their faces and the cobwebs in their
show windows. When a customer en
ters one of these places he has to
aunt up the proprietor or a clerk. If
be asks how business is he will be
told that it is "on the bum" and that
the town In dead. He will leave such
an establishment with the Idea that
he has been in the House of Misery.
It is" a fact that Pendleton gets
some very bad advertising from Just
uch people as this. It is not right
either. It is not right at all that
the good, vigorous boosting work that
ii done by the hustlers of the town
should be offset by this persistent,
pessimistic griping. Besides It only
Injures the man who gripes. If a
man is sick It does him no good to
think and talk constantly of his ail
ment. He should get out In the sun
hine and try to think he Is feeling

veil even if lie is not. It is largely
a psychological proposition anyway.
Steam up and then see how you
feel.
IS THIS WHY?
. President Taft criticises the states
of the west and of the middle west
for not keeping their men In congress
for lengthy terms as do the eastern
states. It is a criticism that has often
been heard before and is worthy of
attention. Certainly the western
states lose out through sending so
many new men to - Washington. A
new man either in the house or In
' ...
the senate has little prestige. The
1""ger he remain8 ln congress the
better committee appointments he se
,
cures and the bigger he becomes. He
grows by the work he has to do. This
should also make him bigger at home
n'1 make his reelection easier each
succeeding term. Then
why don't
western representatives and senators
' become reelected more than they are?
j Perhaps it is because public life does
' not offer to western men the Induce
' menu that are to be found ln com
mercial and industrial lines. The
v.tst is a land of opftortunity. Men
of ability are able to make money in
j the west and advancement is com-
paratively easy. Possibly this makes
them Indifferent to sn.fp In nnh.

! lie life. At least this is a comfort
ing view from a western standpoint.
THERE'LL HE SOME WOHK.
Unless all signs fail the coming
ummer will be the busiest from a
j construction standpoint that Uma-
tilla county has experienced in many
years. The work on the O. R. & N,
line changes between Yoakum and
Pendleton alone will be an enormous
task. The work"1ncludes practically
the rebuilding of the main line road
bed for a distance of 17 miles. It la
a greater undertaking than was the
, construction of the Umatilla Central
J I and the cost to the company will be
I greater.
: Then the big cut off from Coyote to
Echo or to Stanfield will also be
J j made. This yvill involve almost as
1 much work as will the Yoakum-Pen-Jdleton
line changes. The construc-
j tion work the O. II. & X. company is
j to do will unquestionably help greatly
in stimulating business in Pendleton
! and in all other towns in this portion
i of the county.
; Aside from the railroad construe
j tion work the big dam and reservoir
at Horseshoe curve Is to be finished
by the Furnish ditch company. Many
men will be needed for that work.
Tiiere will also be much other work
lo the Irrigation section. ,
It looks like a busv season in the
construction line,
A THOROUGH CLEAX-TP.
Hundreds of piles of rubbish that
have been raked together during the
past two days in answer to the clean
up summons shows that the people
of the city have responded loyally
to the call. It is to Pendleton's credit
that they have done so. Furthermore
the result shows that some good work
has been done by the city officials
and by the ladies who have been
named upon the clean-up committee.
Now it remains for the city to see
to the carting; away of the rubbish
and to the prosecution of those who
have failed to-do their duty. Unless
the city does take after the negli
gent ones the real benefit of the cru
sade will be lost. It Is from the dirt
that Is left that the epidemics result
It is up to the city authorities to see
that there is none left.
PLENTY OP RAIN.
At Pendleton the rainfall so far
this season has almost reached the 12
inch mark. We are within about two
Inches of the average annual rain
fall and still have five months of the
present season left. The year la liable
to be a record breaker for a heavy
precipitation. The rainfall thus far
Is four Inches ahead of the total rain
fall for the season of 1907-8 and three
inches greater than the total rainfall
for last season. If Umatilla county
does not have bumper crops this year
it will not be through nny fault on
the part of Jupiter Fluvlus.,
According to a story from Walla

been discovered near Frevwater. Tliot
is strange. Freewater people are
known as being a progressive bunch.
Here's betting they will soon give the

A tJIKIS WORST ENEMY.
So it's poverty that is the worst
enemy of the 'young girl, is it, Mrs.
Reformer?
I don't agree with you. m
I never saw a good girl driven to
do wrong by poverty in my life.
And if you will come to think It
over, neither, did yot.
By loneliness? Yes.
By unkindnass at home? Yes.
By vanity and a fondness for dress
Yes. By laziness and envy and a silly,
empty-headed desire for excitement?
Yes.
By poverty, by hard work, by self
denial? Xever in the wide, wide
world.
The best girls In the world are
working girls. You know they're
good girls, or they wouldn't be work
ing. And they are working because
they are good girls.
No woman who was ever worth the
saving ever threw herself away' be
cause she was poor. Any girl who
amounts to a row of pins ln a paper
would kill herself before she would be
driven to any such way of getting out
of poverty.
She would scrub the stones in tlio
street for a living and hold her head
up with honest pride while she was
doing it, and It would never enter her
head to offer her good name for sale
just to get a new dress or a Cluinte
cler hat.
Good girla are made of different
material than that.
Can you mukts an honest man steal
because he wants a new tie or thinks
he ought to have a new hat?
You cannot. An honest man is born
honest, and nothing but the most des
perate need of some one he loves will
ever make him anything else but hon
est. The poor girls who stumble and
walk in the crooked, dark paths that
lead to misery do not deliberately
walk in that path to get away from
poverty. They are called by stronger
voices than the voice of mere silly
vanity.
Dress, dress, dress I get so sick
of the very sound of the word some
times that I wish we could all be In
dians and dress in a blanket and be
done with it.
What are you talking about to your
daughter, little mother new clothes,
yours and hers and the neighbors?
Isn't there something else In the
world with which to fill that little
daughter's head? Is it so important
for 1ier to know the very latest styles,
or wouldn't It be better to keep her
busy enough so she wouldn't care
whether her dress was pink or blue as
long as it was clean and comfortable?
And you, Mr. Wise Man, who loVes
to laugh at the vanity of woman
to whom do. you show the most atten
tion the sweet, pretty, modest little
girl who thinks of something besides
her own looks or the flaunting hu
man paroquette who'd die if she did
not have the very latest hat and the
newest thing In spring dresses?
Vanity a cause for the ruin of young
girls? Yes. Poverty? Never. An

German concern to cultivate the
good graces of the American people
does not reach to the length of en
couraging German dipln'mats to wed
American wives. Third Secretary
Von Stumm, of the kaiser's Wnthlng
ton embassy, having wedded an .Am
erican girl, there Is much unofficial
protest in Berlin. Bismark laid down
the law that only a Herman wife
could be accounted a safe wife for a
German diplomat and there is a curl
rtus revival of that sentiment. The
fact that Baron von Sternburg. late
ambassador- ln Washington, had a
charming American wife, and inci
dentally was the despair of all the
other diplomats because of his faculty
for getting what he wanted from the
state department, scents to have been
forgotten. From Success Magazine.
Add to comfortable mediocrity a
