And hush all murmurings; To look upon my neighbor as A man who means me well, And let the cloud that lowers pass v All heedless of Its spell; To seek the bright side of all That comes athwart my way, And every morning to recall Some" happy bygone day; To thrust from out my heart and mind All evil thoughts and mean. And everywhere I glance to find s-ome beauty In the scene. I find that .though my ftays In crease My years diminish. Truth To tell the method brings me peace, And holds me close to youth! John Kendrlck Bangs in Suc cess Magazine. THE GATE IS XOT CLOSED. Enemies of the conservation policy Inaugurated by Roosevelt and Pinchot delight In misrepresenting the effects of conservation upon the west. The Oregonlan published a cartoon sever al days ago which represented Pln chotism as hnvlng closed the west to ' settlement and having turned the colonist tide to Canada. This la as tar from the truth as is hades from heaven. The door of the west Is not closed against settlers. Settlers are com ing to the west more numerously than ver befoye and they have much to come for. The irrigation projects, governmental and private, that have been developed within the past few years proylde homes for more people than have gone into"western Canada or ever will. This Irrigated land will sustain a family upon five or ten acres. Of the Canada wheat land It takes a section to make a farm of any particular value. Then It Is false to represent that the Canadian land was furnished free by the Canadian government. The Americans who have gone to Alberta have for the most part purchased Canadian Pa cific land and purchased It at high rrlces. They could have found raw heat land at lower prices In the In terior of eastern Oregon. They went to Canada because the Canadian Pa cific gave liberal terms . Js to pay ments and because that corporation maintained a colonization bureau that "knew Its business." The conservation policy of Roose velt and Pinchot Jooked to the pro tection of the forests, water powers and coal lands. It aimed at stopping the gobbling up of the natural re srurces of the country by the Ouggen-h'-lms and the Morgans. That policy never stopped a settler from coming westward. Theodore Roosevelt Is the best friend the west ever had for It was his Influence that caused the government to take up reclamation work. The Oregonlan is a dyspeptic and seldom sees good in anything. Some of Its friends who were In the coal grabbing business have been blocked In their operations and the Oregonlan owls that conservation Is keeping ittlers from the west. The Ore gonlan Itself Is blocking the settle ment of the west. Its cartoon tends to discourage those who are telling easterners that Uncle Sam has pro vided good homes for them on the Umatilla project and upon otoher pro jects of the west. That cartoon was fine advertising for Canada, though false as to facts. If the Oregonlan had the true west- J ern spirit and was moved by public Interest rather than by malice and by an ever manifest desire to favor predatory wealth It would follow a different course. Instead of plctur lag the door of the west as closed It 'would show It wide open and with a welcome slogan such a this: "Tite government ha providedj homes for millions of people In the ' went. Come, get some land, on ten years1 time, and live lik,e a man as God Intended you should." THE SKY TRAVELER. Gaxing phil'rfophlcaJly at Halley's comet a romantic writer far the At lantic Constitution dashej fit :he foi l-wing: "By far the mcM ajp:ir.f feature of p.jctiTiae and Ha"y"s comet is that which chai se grs the Imif'.nation la the spectacle of this fiery body plunging through the inconceivable reaches of the uni verse for centuries at a gait beyond human comprehension. "Could we but Interview this Wan dring Jew of the skies! It haa ex changed greetings with the stars In llne,r courses and throughout the ages luard dlnfly and In resounding har mony the music of the sphere. 'Who can tell? It may have blot ted the worlds out of existence, worlds ! more Intelligent and pretentious than our own little globe trundling swift ly through space. "Strange Tales It could tell of the folk out yonder In the big void, tow- 'ard which children look dreaming In the on-creeping twilight, and lovers, watch with charmed gaze in that "light that never was on land or sea," ar.d age scans with feeble vision and misgiving tempered only by hope and prayer." . Bosh. The comet does not know Its own name. TAKE THE OLIVE BRANCH. The East Oregonlan knows of the bitterness and dlnsenslon always en gendered by fights such as the one that will ensue If the county division, ists Insist on putting their proposition t i a vote this fall. This paper has been through political fights before. When warm campaigns are on In Umatilla county the East Oregonlan Is generally a participant. When It takeJe-nart It wants Its side to-win and fights to that end. If there Is to be a county division fight this paper will be in the thick part of the fray. But because it knows of the Injury that results from such controversies the East Oregonlan wants to see the division fight averted. This paper v.ould rather use Its energies this fall In support of the Eastern Oregon normal and In behalf of the publicity movement. It would hate to devote Ito batteries to the county division fight. There Is something to be gain ed from reestablishing the normal school and from creating a publicity bureau. No good could result from a division fight. It ls"up to the leaders at Milton and Freewater to choose between peace and war. They can go on with their campaign and throw this county Into, a bitter fight or they can withhold their proposition and bring peace. May this latter course appeal to them. Xow that Olney cemetery has been provided with an Irrigation system there Is no reason why that tract should not be made Into a very pre sentable "City of the Dead." Much good along this line may be accomp lished If people who have relatives burled there will respond to Council man Dyer's call for workers to get the burial ground In good condition by Memorial day. Eastern magazines are publishing pictures showing flowers In bloom while a snow storm Is raging. Out here we have the flowers without the blizzard which Is better. Notice what a redounding message President Taft sent Roosevelt and what a short reply he received. Judging from this who is the "head man." LESMOX OF THE AXTS. In a recent book about ants, Rev. H. C. McCook gives some suprislng facts about the mound-making ants of the Alleghenles. He has measured some mounds more than 30 feet In cir cumference, although rarely more than three feet in height. But around these there were many new mounds, In course of construction, only a few Inches In height. They are found in groups, one of which, near Hollldays burg, Pennsylvania, contains 1,700 mounds within a space of BO acres. Their total population Is enormous, and each group of mounds appears to constitute a community an Insect kingdom or empire. In regard to their numbers, Doctor Forel Is quoted as saying that these ant kingdoms have In all probability from 200,000,000 to 400,000,000 Inhabitants, "all forming a single community, and living to gether In active and friendly Inter course." An ant Is an exceedingly small Insect. Alone It could accom plish but little. But organized with many others, marvelous things are ac complished. A lesson for the non union man: "Go to the ant, thou slug gard, consider Its ways and be wise." Los Angeles Citizen. "I am afraid my husband is devel oping the gambling Instinct," sobbed the bride. "What's the matter, dear? Has he been playing poker." "Ho, but yesterday he offered to match pennies with brother Frank to determine which one should pay the carfare." Detroit Free Press.

Frank Deardorf. ACROSS THE AXDES. The first transcontinental railroad of South America Is finished. Africa alone among the continents remains unspanned. It is 30 years since :the trans-Andean enterprise was uder taken, and It stands today as one of the great engineering feats of the world.

THE American National Bank Pendleton, Oregon UNITED STATES DEPOSITORY - vThls means that a large amount of the merchandise which used to go around the Horn will now be trans ported across the continent by rail, and the traffic receipts are bound to be large from the very outset. South America is Indeed a country of sky scraping railroads. The Guapquil Quito line, finished a little over a year ago, climbs nearly 12,000 feet on its way to the capital of Ecuador. But that is nothing in comparison with the dizzy heights attained by the railroad In Peru, which taps the Cerro de Pas co copper mines. FOR 1600 acres in northern Grant Co. .
