The spirit of the smile; it's a sweet, sweet way That the soul comes down to the heart to play. And tt sings to the dawn. And it sings to the dew If you smile on the world It will smile on you: - The spirit of the smile; it's a bloom, its a light, That the world sees by when it walks through the night. And the heart cries back, As it walks there through If you sniilo on the world It will smile on you! The spirit of the smile; it Is love in her home On the lips of the bloom where the wild bees roam. And she sings and she sighs It la true, It Is true. If you smile on the world It will smile on you! Baltimore Sun. J11KJE DEHICKVS STAND. In making the race for the repub- i In an nomination for governor Judge Grant B. Dlmick stands squarely for the direct primary law and for state ment No. 1. Here is a section from his platform: "I stand as a firm defender of the Direct Primary Law and Statement No. 1, as enacted by the people of the State of Oregon by one of the largest Majorities ever given an Initiative measure and also the Initiative and Referendum, for the reason that It la a safeguard to the rights of our peo ple, and has been the means of giving to the people of our state valuable legislation. "I have pledged myself to the peo ple of the State of Oregon that if elected, I will, during my term of of fice, discharge my duties carefully, ftarlessly and honestly, and see that all laws are strictly enforced. "That I will oppose any attempt by the Legislature to destroy the Primary Xominatlon Law or the Initiative and Referendum. "'That I will oppose all extravagant appropriations of public funds, and al so the creation of additional salaried offices, boards and commissions." Judge Dimiek is the sort of a man who should be made governor. If the people elect a reactionary such as Bowerman they may well look for a determined effort to do away with both the direct primary law and the initiative and referendum. A CAPABLE OFFICIAL. Several times In the past the Hast Oregonian has suggested that the state printer be placed upon a flat salary and that tlite office be made appointive rather than elective. It is a position that requires special training on the part of the official ard It should not be a political office. However no change has ever been made in the status of the state prin ter and It will be necessary to elect a I man for that position this fall. The j rnce for the republican nomination i lies between W. S. Dunlway, present incumbent, and W. J. Clark, the as jsembly nominee. Sir. Dunlway, who has always been a strong supporter of the direct primary, Is making an oj-en race for the nomination on the anti-assembly ticket. This fact should cemmend him to all who oppose ma chine rule In politics. Aside from this Mr. Dunlway has a record that makes him Incompar ably stronger than his opponent. Ha has managed the office of state prin ter In a capable manner and has done iswav with much of the former waste strongest m-n in the party to run for I graft Jt Js estlmateJ that he ha9 offlce- I saved the state between J1000 and Of course it was childish for any-j . , ... . ,,, .,,. ASSEMBLY DECEPTION'S. what was the trouble. He replied, "I can't make a deal for the hay with Neighbor B. We don't agree as to the amount in the stack and we have no rule by which we can tell the num ber of tons in It. I won't pay for more than is there and he is afraid he won't get pay enough and so it stands." The bright-eyed son looked up eagerly. "Pa, have you the meas urements for the stack? Is It wild hay? Let me have them. We learned Just last week at school how to meas ure hay in the stack." So Hie num ber of tons were computed the far mer and the farmer-to-be with heads close together over the paper. The telephone rang up Mr. B andthe deal was made that night. "That farmer decided anew that the taxes which he paid for his school and its good teacher were the best In vestment he had ever made," com ments Miss Field. "Down at that school his boys and girls were secur ing knowledge they would need to use when they were on their own farms so that no one could take advantage of them or pull the wool over their eyes in a business deal." One of the things of which Miss Field Is most proud is the formation of a Boys' Agricultural club, to which every farm boy In the county is eligi ble. Xot only are the boys Instructed in corn testing, planting and judging, but county contests are held, for which prizes are offered by the local merchants. How successful these lo cal shows have become is evidenced by the fact that last fall the Page coun ty boys took first in every class in corn for Iowa at the National Corn Show held at Omaha, while thevoun ty exhibit as a whole won first place. A member of the Boys' Agricultural club won the grand championship sweepstakes at the Iowa state fair in 1909. The parents have begun to drop in to the school houses to read the farm papers and bulletins on the racks and to absorb always with an air of looking on useful knowledge of which they are themselves in need. "You know a farmer will never come out and say he wants to learn a new thing," comments one who now ad mits his Interest was selfish," but if he can look over the fence and see it he will sneak home and try it on the back forty." And the mothers are learning, too, for while Miss Field is partial to the boys she is teaching the girls to sew, to test milk, to raie poultny and to cook good, wholesome meals.

II 9228 (I THE AMERICAN NATIONAL BANK PENDLETON, OREGON UNITED STATES DEPOSITARY Statement at close of business September I, 1910 Resources From start to finish the assembly politicians have indulged In deception. If they succeed In winning out it will bt a triumph of falsehood over truth. At the outset of the assembly move It was announced that an "open" as sembly would be held. In other words representative men would get togeth er from all over the state; talk over affairs candidly and pick out the one to expect to see such an assembly. Yet some men did. Conspicuous am ong those who were taken in were Dr. Andrew C. Smith, Dr. james Wft'hycombe and others. They found tc their sorrow that It was not an "open" assembly but a "picked" as sembly. In Portland and throughout the rest of the state the delegates were picked to vote for Jay Bowerman tor the nomination for governor. The convention was manipulated for his benefit and for the benefit of other men who were favored by the corpor ation clique which constitutes the "power behind the throne" of assem bly ism. Assembly men also resort to flag rant de9eption when they say they uphold the direct primary law. Trie assembly scheme is wholly antago nistic to the direct primary. The direct primary calls for open races; the assembly scheme for fixed races. The assembly was held In plain vio lation of the spirit and letter of the direct primary law. For assembly Ites to say they uphold the direct pri mary is entirely too raw. Assemblylsm la also opposed to the direct election of senators under Statement No. 1. This despite any assertions to the contrary. It Is quite well known that the assembly would have openly denounced statement No. 1 had the leaders not considered such action would have been poor political policy. There may be Individual as sembly men who truly uphold state ment No. 1. But the most of them bate It and would like to do away with It. They are the men who back. 4 the Infamous Brooke-Bean bill which would have made It a felony for a legislator to publicly pledge his sup. port to the popular choice for sena tor. Most assemblyltea favor "state ment IJ" In preference to statement No. 1. In other words they would rather see legislators make secret and perhaps con-apt pledges to po litical bosses rather than make open pledges to their constituents. Don't listen for a moment to state ments that aemhlylm Is In accord with the direct primary and with other progressive measures. There Is nothing progressive about as gem blylsm. The assembly spirit Is re actionary. Give the assemblyltes the1 chance and they will take the state of Oregon straight back to the old po litical system. Don't give them that chance. President Imft doss not seem an xious to take hold of the New York BollHcal thastla. he has Introduced. Purely It will be well to retain such a man as this In office. Jupiter Pluvius seems to have also been enlisted In behalf of the Round up and fair. Rain at this time will settle dust and should Insure pleas ant weather next week. The Round up men are pulling some long wires. Oregon assembly supporters should rush to the defense of Senator Lorl mer. Senators like Lorlmer are the product when legislatures elect sena tors under the old system. The controversy between capital and labor Is world wide..

Today the visitor to the Page coun ty, Iowa, schools will not hear many recitations about Bulgaria, Baluchi stan or Mesopotamia, but he will find the boys and girls, their faces eager and shining, at work over a Babcock milk tester, or. a seed germination box, reading the experiment station or the department of agriculture bul letins which are to be found by the dozens on the library racks, judging corn, testing seed, studying weeds and Insects and solving problems express ed in homely, every-day terms with which they are perfectly familiar. Such , problems, worked day after day, with practical object lessons al ways before him, make an alert, practical farm boy out of the Bulgaria-confused parrot-blockhead of yesterday. The effect has been no ticeable in the homes as well aS In the schools. Miss Field, the county superintends, narrates this actual experience In her county. Farmer A wanted to buy a stack of hay from Farmer B, but as they could not agree as to the amount of hay In the stack and neither had a reliable rule for computing It. A needed the hay very much and when he went home at night he looked tired and worried. At supper his wife noticed this and asked AJ m raKreZWau h e The record of the Bitters .w rri rnorrrn' " Sraffifr'tffa- rears BITTER 3c,usi veiy that it gives the greatest satis, faction In cas es of Dyspepsia, Indigestion, CosUveness, Btllloosness and Malaria, PREFERRED TO STAY. Senator Tillman piloted a constitu ent around the capitol building for a while during the last session, and then, having work to do on the floor, conducted him to the senate gallery. "After an hour or so," said Mr. Till man, "my visitor approached a gal lery doorkeeper. " 'Jly name is Swate,' he told the fellow, 'and I'm going out to git a drink. I thought I'd better tell you so I can git back. I'm a friend of Tillman's.' "The doorkeeper said that was all right, but in case he was not there, and in order to prevent any mistake he would give him the senate pass word. "Swate's eyes popped out at this. 'What's the word?' he asked. " 'Idiosyncrasy.' " 'What?' "Idiosyncrasy," replied the door keeper solemnly. " 'I guess I'll stay in." said Swate, 'and wait for Tillman.' " Too Adept. "The next event," said the an nouncer at the country fair, "will be a sack race for girls. Professionals barred." "What do you mean by profession als?" "Those who have been wearing hobble skirts."
