Official City and County Paper,

About so much, but exercise
More charity.

A SALUTARY REMEDY.
Scarcely a week passes without a
new county division scheme being
sprung. There are nine separate bills
now upon the ways and more may be
forthcoming later. Commenting up
on the multitude of division meas
ures the Oregonian recently said:
"Here is direct legislation gone to
Etcd and disseminating trouble
through, the fair expanse of Oregon.
"Latest is Deschutes county, pre
senting a petition to the Secretary of
State and asking to be carved out of
the northwest part of Crook county.
Umpqua, Williams and Nesmith, with
overlapping boundaries, seek indepn-1
dence from Lane and Douglas coun-
ties. Umatilla county is
wrestling '
with the ambitious schemes of Or
chard and Hudson. Clark desires sep
aration from Grant, Otis from Mal
heur and Harney. A strip of Clack
amas seeks annexation to Multnomah.
"Politicians, office-seekers and am
bitious little towns are putting up
these county partition schemes. More
counties will provide additional of
ficial places and other patronage.
They will also make higher taxes and
more trouble for property owners.
"It is reaching a" point in Oregon
where the electroate will feel obliged
to vote uniformly against all these new
counties. The voters cannot Inform
themselves on the many local details
Involved, in order to legislate,, there
fc re they are likely to take the view
that their safest action will be that
of voting 'No" on the 'whole bunch'."
To vote "no" upon all division
measures will be the natural thing
to- do. It will be the only recourse.
People cannot pass intelligently upon
division hills. Those who draft the
division bills know this very well.
They tliir.k people will vote blindly
upon their measures just as they did
for Hood River county. So they are
goir.g to take advantage- of the situ
stlon and burn the bnllnt with di
vision measures. It is all wrong. The
divisionists are making improper use
of the initiative .ind th-y are impos
ing upon the voters of the stale. The
people of this state will be doing ex
actly right if they bury all division
me-asures under an avalanche of ne
gative votes.
REVIVE THE NORMALS.
In the list of new teachers for the
Pertland schools appear the names of
many who taught in this city last
winter. At least a dozen teachers
have resigned from the Pendleton
schools this year. Most of these have
gene to the schools of Portland, Se -
attle and other large cities through-
out the northwest. They are strong
teachers and they are entitled to con
- gratulatlons upon the advancement
The Pendleton board Is securing com.
petent teachers to take their positions.
Bat in order to secure teachers to
fill these vacancies the local board
Is obliged to take good teacher away
I
from smaller towns or else Import
the-m from other states. There are
no normal graduates this year and
there can be none next year. Unless
the -normal schools are sustained by
the people this fall it may be years
before the situation is remedied. In
that time the public schools of Ore.
pon will suffer. It takes good teach
ers to make good schools.
It Is the fU.it belief of this paper
that the welfare of the school system
in eastern Oregon demands the main
tenance of the Eastern Oregon nor
mal school at Weston. The people of
southern Oregon feel the same way
with respects to the Southern Oregon
normal at Ashland while those of
the Willamette valley are disposed to
favor the school at Monmouth. Why
not revive them all? This is a big
state and it Is naturally divided Into
three parts, eastern Oregon, western
Oregon and southern Oregon. Each
section is entitled to recognition.
VERY ItAW.
By what sort of a mental jiu jitsu
can the Pacific telephone company
justify its action in swearing that Its
local plant is worth less than $15,000
whew it is being assessed and then
(cooly declaring it is worth over $75,
000 when its rates are under consid-
erntinn? fnder the laws of Oregon
vropertv is to be assessed at full val-
I uation. Officers of the 'phone corn-
1 -rny made affidavits before the equa-
l'.zation board that the value of their
rhysical property was less than $15,-
000. Now comes the district manager
- nd cooly declares those figures were
incorrect or In other words that the
company lied to the assessor. The
company Is "standardizing" its rates
tnd now sets a valuation of $75,000
upon Its local business. Such incl-
dents as this serve mightily to destroy
the confidence which people have
in the accuracy of statements made
Down in Mexico President Diaz has
thrust the liberal candidate for pres
ident behind the bars. That is one
way to handle an election and it
seems to work in "Barbarous" Mexi
co. The run of the "Deutschland"
marks the beginning of aerial pas
senger traffic. Yet there are many
who will be content to travel by land
for some time to come.
Why men will commit murder for
the sake of a little money is a mys
tery that Is hard to understand.

WOMAN FINDS A WAY.
Two burglars were on their trial
nnd had engaged a smart lawyer for
' Tipir r1fnnsp. who. on rrnss-examin-
ing one of the witnesses, said:
"You siy that on the night in eiues
tion th" moon was so bright that you
. ouirl see the burglars in the room.
Was your husband awake at the
'time?"
t Witness "I don't know."
"Whs his face turned toward you

The witness answered that she did
not know.
"What! You don't know? Now,
come; tell me, was his face turned to
ward you or the wall?"
"I don't know."
"Ah, ha! I thought so" (turning
to the jury). "She could not see. She
who Identifies the prisoners could not
see which way her husband's face
was turned. Explain that if you
can."
"Well, sir. my husband is so bald
I that In a dim light I can't tell his
face from the back of his head.
It Was a Volume or Travel.
After spending an evening with
convivial friends, the head of the
family entered the house as eiuietly
as he could, turned up the reading
light in the library, and settled him

bound volume. Presently his wife
Titcred the room, as he knew she
would, and asked what he was doing
"Oh, he replied. "I didn't feel like
turnlnsr in when I first came home,
and I've been reading some favorite
passages from this sterling old work.
"Well," said his wife, "it's getting
late now. Shut up the valise and

WOMAN'S I.KAGVE CONVENTION.
The following letter may be of In
terest to members of tho American
Women' League and their friends:
3755 Sheffied, Ave., Chicago, 111..
June 16th, 1910.
My Dear Miss Boyd:
I hope you will pardon my delay
in reporting upon the greatest conven
tion ever held by women, some five
thousand strong.
Who says women cannot pull to
gether? I only wish all women
could go to University City to see for
themselves. The half has not been
told. They would need no urging to
Join the League. The organization
would simply be overwhelmed with
applications to join.
They have called Mr. Lewis a
dreamer. Some have gone farther,
and said "a dangerous dreamer." The
former statement, is true in a meas
ure, for no one could materialize the
, artistic beauty of University City but
! a dreamer of beautiful dreams for
the betterment of humanity.
I expected a great deal of the
League before I left home, but I
was not prepared for what I have
seen and learned. If nothing else,
I received a lesson of unfailing cour
tesv and unselfishness under the
most trying circumstances, from Mr.
Lewis down to the janitors (and he
employs hundreds); so much so that
they had a spiritual influence upon all
League members. So strong was this
influence that the watchword of the
League came to us spontaneously:
Pull together, is our motto.
Keep together, is our creed.
Hold together, is the watchword.
Of the American Woman's League.
This was sung to the tune of
"John Brown's Body Lies Mouldering
in the Grave."
Mr. Lewis' employes worship him,
or rather his principle, as he allows
no personality in this homage, which
is the best proof of his character.
Mr. Lewis himself is a most modest
and simple man. But you cannot
meet him without being at once con
scious of the greatness of the soul
within, and all felt the same about
him, the men, too, many of whom
came out of simple curiosity, but
went away convinced.
Until lately, St. Louis people have
been ' very skeptical. I made it my
business to talk to disinterested, re
both can and will carry out his
promises, for the number and the
ciass of women that attended the
convention was an eye-opener to St.
Louis. Every state in the union was
represented by the best of its wo
manhood. The railroads laughed at Mr. Lewis
when he tried to get rates and told j
them the number he expected to at- i
tend the convention. They said he
would do well If three hundred came.
The League paid out nearly fifty
thousand dollars in railroad fares, to
say nothing of the many who paid
their own fars. Next year, it is safe
to say the railroads will anxiously
await Mr. Lewis' pleasure and make
tirma with him, not he with them.
Mr. Lewis has about the greatest
credit of any man In St. Louis, as he j
e:m borrow 90 per cent of his hold
ings. This was told me by a man
holding a trustworthy position in one
of thp leading banks In no way con
iipeted with Lewis. This speaks for
I itself.
I believe In time, the People's Uni
versity will be the greatest Institu
tion of learning in the U. S., for they
have a solid foundation. The art
building, with its treasures, simply
amazed me, for nothing finer Is pro
duced anywhere In the world. The
pottery and sculpture are marvels of
art. And just think, this is frpe to
the humblpst member of the League.
Vn wonder people doubt the good
tidings, for upon the surface, it looks
too good to be true. I only regret
T have not a son or daughter to take
advantage of all this, and then help
spread the news of the beauty and
gladness to the less fortunate over
the land.
My dear Miss Boyd, do you realize
how far reaching this will be In up
lifting humanity, to teach them the
nobler things in life? You may be
wpII proud and enthusiastic to be the
representative in Pendleton.
I could talk on and on of what I
have .seen and heard, but there Is a
limit of time and patience even for as
enthusiastic a member as you are.
Personally. I had the time of my
life, and I have greater admiration
for my own sex than I ever had be
fe.re; for the lesson of tho League
"Force In' kindness," struck home
and made it an unwritten law to be
kind and considerate of each other.

which lasted until the last day. which

l
the thousands were cared for, both
for pleasure and comfort and the
best in the land was ours. Out of the
thousands at the convention, I did not
hear one grumble nor complaint. A
prominent St. Louis lady, not a mem
ber of the League, said she "would
lose no time in joining the League at
once." She said she would not have
missed the convention for the world,
an it had taught her the greatest les
son. And our own dear Oregon peo
ple (twenty-six strongl said the same.
Nor did any of the Oregonians miss
an opportunity of tooting our own
horn, and telling of the greatness of
our state. We wore badges with
"Oregon" printed on them, and every
one felt his (yes, we had one lone
man with us from Hood River) and
her responsibility in being a credit
tn our state. People would nsk us
all sorts of questions about dear old
Uregon, that seems so new and far
a way to many.
So you see, the League serves a
manifold purpose. It can serve as a
booster club for our state. Next year
we must have badges printed with
wheat on them. The Hood River peo
ple hail apples on their badges and
we must never li t any section outdo

ever completed by women or men.
T"r that matter.
, There were such urgent requests
not to close the Founder's Chapter
for at least ten days, so that each
delegate could go home an.l have
their friends join, that Mr. Lewis

"THE FATHERHOOD OF C30D.'
While the quoted expression, or Its
equivalent may have been spoken
many times on many occasions, It was
the Rev. Edward Irving of Caledonian
chapel, Cross street, London, whose
utterance ef the phrase led to a no
ticeable allusion to an English pre
mier in the house of commons.
Irving was a Scotch proncher, i
friend and correspondent of Cnrlyle,
whoso reputation as a Glasgow
church orator had secured him the
pastorate of the Caledonian chapel of
Presbyterian worshipers in Cross
street, Hatton gardon, London.
It was Sir James Mackintosh who
started the drift of official and soci
ety dignatarles In the direction of Ir-
ving's little chapel. For Sir James,
on a certain Sunday, was struck by
the pastor's relation In the morning
prayer of the destitution which had
recently befallen a family of children
that suddenly lost its parental heads
The relation closed with the phrase
in the headline. All of these partlc
ulars Sir James gave to Premier
Gooreo Canning. The head of the
ministry was "startled" at tho com
prehe-nslveness of the quoted words
and he resolved to attend Irving
preaching.
Rut the phrase which struck Mack
intosh and startled Canning and
which led to such great popularity o
Irving was the preacher's pathctKc
statement that the homeless orphnn
were "thrown upon the fatherhood o
God." Edward Irving.
