Our life is spent in little things; In little cares our hearts are drowned; We move, with heavy-laden wings, x. In the same narrow round. s We waste on wars and petty strife. And squander in a thousand ways, V The fire that should have been the life, And power of after days. We toil to make an outward show, And only now and then re veal, How far the under currents flow Of all we think and feel. Mining in covers of ancient lore, Unweaving endless webs of thought. We do what .has been done of yore. And so we come to naught. The spirit longs for wider'scope And room to let Its fountains play . Ere it has lost its love and hope, Tanned down or worn away. I wonder by the cloister wall My fancy fretting to be free As, through the twilight, voices . call From mountain and from sea. Forgive me if I feel oppressed By Custom, lord of all and me! My soul springs upward, seek ing rest. And cries for liberty. John Nichol. WHY XOT? - Commenting on the situation in the senate at this time the Oregonian eaid: "President Taft and his supporters In legislation have turned from in surgents to democrats for support for the administration railroad bill. This is natural and logical action. There can be no effective harmony between sensible conservatives and radical ex tremists of the insurgent stripe. There U common interest,' however, between the anti-radical interests of demo cratic and republican parties; in fact there is a natural bond of interest be tween them. "Old issues that divide citizenship Into republican and democratic par ties have diminished in potency to uch extent that evidently they con trol neither party any longer. The conflict now, as represented In con gress, is not so much between the old parties as between extremists who fight for noisy innovation and uncom promising radicalism and "safe and sane" opponents of these efforts." But !f time has eliminated the Old ihnues that divide the democratic and republican parties why continue those pailk-s. Why wear the old clothes If they have ceased to fit? Why not f irm a progressive and a conservative party? SOME INFORMATION.

The "Orchard" county divlsionlsts are seeking to show that county di vision will lower taxes. They assert that the last year Hood River was in Wasco county the tax levy was 15 mills whereas during the first year o Hood River county the levy was 7.5 mills. ' , . But why don't they tell the Whole truth? Why don't they say that re gardless of the change in the levy property owners at Hood River paid more taxes than they did when they were in Wasco county. E. A. Schif fler's taxes were increased 81.4 per cent. The last year he was in Wasco county he paid $85.50 taxes. The next year, in Hood River county, he paid $138 taxes upon the same iden tical property. In other words county division cost him just $52.50 for that one year. What does it profit a taxpayer to have his levy reduced if his assess nient is increased? It is pure chlcan ery to argue that the mere lowering of the levy in Hood Rives county did any good. Men like Mr. Schlffler who have paid the penalty of county di vision know what division means They know the value of the '.'esti mates" the Milton divisionists are now making for campaign purposes. THEY HAVE A REMEDY. If reports are to be relied upon some of the "Orchard" county boost ers do not like the idea of "Hudson" county. They say the move Is unjust, Piffle. Why did not the "Orchard" county schemers give some thought to Justice when they drew their boun dary lines. Why did they come south of Dry creek and Include In their proposed county the towns of Weston and Athena and most of the Adams and Helix sections? Weston and Athena don't want ( to be in "Orch ard" county. It wouto be the height of injustice to place them in "Orclr- ad" county. "Hudson" county frees Athena and Weston from "Orchard" . county. It "Hudson" county Is unfair so is "Orchard" county only much more so. If Milton does not like 'Hudson" county the divlsionlsts have the remedy In their own hands. Let them drop the entire matter.'' They started it Pendleton had a substantial delega tion at the Caledonian picnic yester day. Next week the people of this city should attend the pioneers re union at Weston. Then the Straw berry festival at Milton. Providing of course that the county divlsionlsts would not object. It is amusing to listen to the man ner in which the astronomers are ac counting for the fact that the earth did not pass through the tall of the comet. "In union there Is strength." BE THERE TONIGHT. At the court house thlB evening a good roads meeting will be held and two notable advocates of Improved highways will make addresses. It will be a meeting of importance and It should be generally attended by farm ers and by business men. In the move to construct better roads the people of the oounty and the people of the city may , welL join hands. It would be of mutual beueflt to all to have better highways.

Lingerie gowns, guiltless of a collar are frequently worn with a narrow velvet band at the throat, on which may be a diamond or other Jeweled ornament. A detachable frill and ' detachable turnover . collar are additions to a smart white linen shirtwaist or medi um weight, which has the front 'cov ered with quarter inch tucks. There is a late fancy among some Parisian costumers for making the belts of the more elaborate gowns of a color in contrast to the whole color scheme of the garment. Practical little striped gingham frocks for tiny folks of two to four years are In Russian style or with a long French waist and full kilted skirts in bright or dark colors. Ruffles of plaited net, batiste, plain or lace edge, and attached to a head ing of insertion, may be bought by the yard and made into side frills for the shirtwaist or coat suit. The Jewel framework Is a feature of the newest model In bags, and the decoration ranges from a simple stone set In the center to a framework ln crusted with Jewels throughout Its en tire length. Russian effects are shown and worn in endless variety. One of the newest developments of the peasant Idea is the dress fashioned on lines Identi cal with the coat suit and hardly to be distinguished from It. "You have a pretty tough-looking lot of customers to dispose of this mor ning, haven't you?" remarked the friend of the magistrate, who had dropped in at the police court. "Huh," rejoined the dispenser of Justice, "you are looking at the wrong bunch. These are the lawyers."

I J MARY. - Don't you tell me J'll be tiring of admiring, That ever shall grow weary of my deary. Should you ask me If I'd ever Wish a single bond to sever, I would hardly deign to answer to your query. I'm aware that men are vicious nml capricious, That their notions and their Inclin ations vary, But I'm sure they would be stead led If they happened to be wedded To a woman half as wonderful as Mary. I have heard of fellows picking flaws and kicking. But I'd never bo a scrappy sort of chappy. You would never find me snarl ing At the cooking of my darling, While she loved me,. I'd be satis fied and huppy. Among men's most common dodges are their lodges, When their wives of evening liber ties are chary, Anything that might detain me Would immeasurably pain me, I'd be anxious to be getting home to Mary. Kenneth Harris. NOW HE THINKS ITS WRONG. Two old cronies went Into il drug store In the downtown part of New York City, and, addressing the pro prietor by his first name, one of them said: "Dr. Charley, we have made a bet of the ice cream sodas. We will have them now, and when the bet is de cided the loser will drop In and pay for them." As the two old fellows were depart ing after enjoying their temperance beverage, the druggist ' asked them what the wager was. "Well," 'said one of them, "our friend George bets that when the tower of the Singer building falls, it will topple over toward 'the North River, and I bet that it won't." Everybody's Magazine. Komulns and Remits. Simeon Ford, at the recent Jiotel men's banquet, told more than his usual quantity of timely stories. Apropos of foreign travel Mr. Ford said: "The harsh raw winds of March will soon be on us, and happy will they be who are on the Riviera, In Egypt or In Rome. "I met a man at the hotel the oth er day who had Just returned from Rome. " 'Well,' I said to him, 'how did you like the old town?' " 'A very, artistic city, that's what Rome is, he replied.
