Official City and County Paper.
Don't let the song go out of
your life;
Though it chances sometimes
to flow 4
In a minor strain, it will blend
again
With the major tone, you
know. 4
Don't let the song go out of
your life;
Though your voice may have
lost its trill,
Though the tremulous note
should die in your throat
Let it sing in your spirit still.
There is never a pain that hides
not some gain,
And never a cup of rue
So bitter to sup but what in
the cup
Lurks a message of sweetness.
too.
Then do not despond, and say
that the fond
Sweet songs of your life have
flown,
For if ever you knew a song
that was true,
Its music is still your own.
Kate R. Stiles.
Till: OM.Y SOLUTION.
Voters of Oregon will be compelled
to pass upon 32 legislative measures
when they vote this fall. The number
U entirely too large and many of the
measures are of such a nature that
voters simply cannot hope to judge
intelligently as to their merits.
Conspicuous In this class are the
eight county division bills that have
"been filed. Each of these measures
pertains to an Isjue that is strictly lo
cal in character. The people of the
state at large are not interested in
county division disputes. The average
voter cannot hope to judge of the
merits of these division bills. From
one side he will be showered with
literature favorable to division; from
another quarter he will be implored
to vote against division. Of'.n peo
ple residing in the proposed new coun
ties do not want division to carry.
This is most assuredly true with re
spects to "Orchard" county. The
towns of Weston and Athena are
strongly opposed to the creation of
that county although they are includ
ec within the boundaries of the em
bryo county. People living In the
country tributary to Weston and Athe
na do not want division. They know
1: would injure them.
Now what is the poor voter, to do?
In the view of the East Oregonian
there is but one logical way to settle
county division problems. All those
problems should be held in abeyance
until a law has been enacted leaving
the settlement of such disputes to the
people who are directly Interested In
them. It is pretty certain that such
a law will be pasM hy the next legis
lature. Such a law was passed by the
last legislature but for some un
. known reason was vetoed by .Gov
ernor Chamberlain following the
close of the session.
In nrd-r to hold these division
meafures until they can be settled
with a proper degree -of intelligence
It will be necessary to vote down the
Initiative bills that have been filed.
Vote "No' upon every county divis
ion bill. To do so will be to Justly re
buke the dlv'.sloniFts. Those men ar
abusing the initiative law. They
have taken advantage of an oppor
tunity to cover the ballot with division
bills, thinking the people will vote
blindly for them. Show them that
the people are not to be imposed upon
In this manner.
THE SCHOOL IS NEEDED.
In a communication published In a
Portland paper Clark Wood of Wes
ton makes a very able argument for
the support f the Eastern Oregon
Normal School. He points out that
"single normal schools are contrary
to the educational trend of the age
and are the policy of seven states
only. Thirty seven states have more
than one normal school, ranging tn
number from two to 18. These are
Rxnerally found In small towns. State
superintendents in the ratio of five
to one favor small normal schools."
In the same article Mr. Wood also
sj:vs that no state has appropriated
less money for its normal schools
than has Oregon and shows that
Washington has always given S5 to Its
normals where Oregon has given $1
for normal purposes.
This is the right sort of campaign
material and much more along this
line should be done In behalf of the
Fastern Oregon normal. The normals j
are not properly understood by the
people. They have been libelled and
abused so persistently for political
purposes, that many people are un
justly disposed against them. At the
last legislative session the normals
were jobbed, for political reasons, by a
combination of which Jay Bowerman,
president of the senate, was the mov
ing spirit. That action disgraced the
state f Oregon and this state now
stands discredited in the eyes of the
educational world.
If the Initiative measure providing
for maintenance of the Eastern Ore
gon normal is passed that school will
be taken out of politics. It will be
given a fixed sum each year and the
sc hool will no longer be a football for
legislators to kick around every ses
sion. The people of eastern Oregon should
stand solidly behind the bill to pro
vide maintenance for the E. O. S. X.
S Our normal school is needed if
the standard of the public schools of
eastern Oregon is to be maintained.
IT IS KXCOCRAGIXG.
Umatilla county will have a good
harvest this year and the fact is en
couraging, in some sections the
c rops have not been up to the stand
ard for two seasons owing the lack
of moisture. Yet as though wishing
to make amends nature has been un
usually kind to the light land region
this year. Proportionately that sec
tion will make the best showing this
summer, so it is now predicted.
With good crops in the light land
sections business conditions In Pen
dleton and in the other towns of the
crunty will be further improved.
When crops are good farmers are able
to pay their debts and move to the
city so that their children may obtain
the benefits from the schools. It will
be surprising if the local school at
tendance is not increased to a con
siderable extent this fall, the increase
being due directly to the good wheat
yi . '.1.
When the farmer is prosperous most
ether people share In the prosperity.
"DIFFERENT."
Though the administration papers
have been loud In proclaiming the
friendship between Roosevelt and Taft
it is apparent that upon political sub
lets the two men hold Ideas that are
different in some respects at least.
Not long ago the news was flashed
over the country that the president
was displeased with Senator Bever
idge and with the Indiana progress
ives. To show his displeasure It was
announced that upon his westward
trip he would "pass up" the city of
Indianapolis as though It were off the
map, just because Beverldge lives
there.
But the colonel of the rough riders,
who does not take advice from Frank
Hitchcock, John Hays Hammond and
others of that class, Is openly In fa
vor of Beverldge and will make a
speech In his behalf this fall. All this
regardless of any differences there
may exist between Senator Beverldge
and the president.
Here's hoping the army engineers
that are to pass upon reclamation
projects hereafter will undertake a
speedy campaign for the taming of
the arid land In the west end of Uma
tilla county and in, Morrow county.

LIFE IS ONK.
In the firm twilight of the waking
world, when life in blindness
wrought.
And savage tribes in the uncleared
land for food and freedom
fought;
There rose a singer among the clans,
in the blare of the desert sun,
And he found his home wherever he
strayed for he knew that life
is One.
He dwelt with the tribes of the marsh
and moor he sat at the board
of kings;
He tasted the toil of the burdened
slave, ami the joy that triumph
brings;
Put whether to jungle or palace hall
white walled tent he came.
He was brother to king and soldier
and slave his welcome was
the same.
There has risen a singer out of the
enst in the clatter and clash
of strife;
The babble of markets nnd blur of
print the turmoil men call life
He came to the task that was set for
him, and scarce was that work
begun
When he knew that the world Is a
building yet and the . power
that builds is One.
He knew by the spirit's countersign
that Teuton and Celt and
Greek,
Kaffir and Pathan and Rajput king;
the self-same language speak.
Face to face he has talked with each
they have given of their best,
He has made his home on the sea
and the land, and brought the
east to the west.
O singer of men and the hearts of
men,- you have called the soul
by name.-
You have followed its path through
the changing world. Is it not
forever the same?
And whether you travel to northern
snows, or the southern sea and
sun.
You will find as you found in the ages
past, that the heart of the
world is One.
Kipling.
FIXING IT CP
An amusing story is being told in
social circles in London about a young
American woman who was anxious to
be presented at a certain European
court. Of course the high officials
had to make inquiries about her so
cial status in her own country and
pronounced their veto, says the New
York Herald. It could not be done.
The daughter of a man who sold boots
and shoes could not be received by his
majesty at a royal court. The girl
was In great distress nnd promptly
cabled home to her father. Next day
she received the following reply:
"Nonsense. Its not selling." Am
simply giving them away. See ad
vertisement." The cablegram she duly presented
In the proper quarter and although
the ending did not seem quite clear
to the official mind it was held to
solve the difficulty. She was present
ed at court as the daughter of an
American gentleman who was noted
as a great philanthropist.
MAYOR OF POSEX.
The Mavor f Rosen is a resource
ful man. The other day he was seek
ing a subscription of $1250 for some
worthy public purpose from a rich
citizen. The rich man did not see
his way clear to part with that sum.
The mayor was persistent, and the
rich man finally said (In German,
of course): "Get along with you! You
will as soon get the money from me
as stand on your head!"
"Then I shall not wait long," re
marked the mayor, and suiting ac
tion to words he dropped on all fours
and right before a crowd of amazed
fashionable people he then and there
stood on his head. He followed this
with an amplified display of versa
tility when he walked on his hands
across the room.
Heretofore the ability to stand on
one's head and to walk across the
room on a mayor's hands has not beon
counted as needful official qualifi
cations. The mayor of Posen heads
a revolutionary movement In this di
rection. The procedure worked with
the millionaire all right, but would
it work as a ritual in the campaign
for "votes for women?" We should
say no, but we pause for reply New

Mark Tulley, state treasurer and
candidate for re-election, was a trav
eling salesman for twenty-five years
und hais a fund of good stories of the
road, says the Kansas City Journal.
He tells that one time he was in a
town In central Kansas where a pro
tracted revival meetings was going on.
One of the residents of the town was
named Toby. He was a tall, gaunt
man, with long whiskers and was
very fond of whisky, of which he
frequently Imbibed beyond his imlt.
This man was attending one of the
meetings, and the revivalist was busy
scoring every form of vice and call
ing down drastic condemnation upon
them.
"Woe to the drunkard! Woe to the
drunkard! Woe to the drunkard!" he
shouted 4n doleful tones.
Old Toby got on his feet and tugged
at his whiskers and the fact that he
stuttered only made his Interruption
more marked: "O-g-guess th'th'that's
m-m-e! I-I-I I'm p-p-present!"
The preacher went on: "Woe to the
liars! Woe to the liars! Woe to the
thieves! Woe to the thieves!" His
voice was dolorous and sepulchral.
Again old Toby got on his feet. He
motioned around the room, swinging
and pointing with his arms and fin
gers. "Q-g-get up," he ' commanded.
"G-g-get up! He's callin' on s-s-some
