ON THE MORNING WAY.
Folks that meet the mornin' in
the happy, hearted way,
They keep the world rejoicin'
ever' minute;
And if the sky is shinin' or with
shadows cold an gray.
They know that Life has light
an' music In It.

THE FIGHT IS STILL ON.
If the direct primary law is to bo
really sustained and If the reaction
ary or standpat element of the repub
lican party is to be fully subdued
then the flsht that was made during
the primary campaign must be car
ried into the state election.
Assomblyism is stlil the Issue. The
fate of that question was not decid
ed at the primary election. Though
the anti-assemblyites won In most In- iast ditch for the gamblers, a strln

blyites would like to pass the Brooke
Bean bill and make It a crime for a
legislative candidate to take state
ment No. 1. Elect an assembly leg
islature and Just such a measure may
b reasonably expected.
If the assembly scheme Is to be ef
fectively squelched then the people,
republicans and democrats alike,
hould vote a?ainst assembly candi
dates in the November election. Pro
gressive republicans should follow
the lead that has been set by Senator
Bourne and others. It would be the
height of folly to follow party lines
at such a time as this. In Oregon
there Is virtually no Issue between the
republican and the democratic par
ties. The issue Is between those who
truly uphold the direct primary law
acd those who seek to nullify the law.
If you believe in direct nomina
tions and In direct legislation then get
ready to vote your convictions, and
to vote them without reference to
party lines that now exist In name
only.
EQCAti SUFFRAGE.
This year the subject of equal suf
frage Is to be voted upon again. It
will be the first initiative measure
upon the ballot and is designated as
"Women's taxpaying suffrage amend
ment, granting to taxpayers, regard
less of sex, the right of suffrage."
Because of the title there are many
who bllve that the suffrage amend
ment proposed this year, If adopted,
will ' give the ballot only to women
who are taxpayers. But the title Is
misleading. The amendment is so
worded that If it Is adopted the right
t vote will be granted all women.
Why the title and amendment are
worded as they are Is difficult to un
derstand. The coming election will be the
fourth at which the people of Oregon
have voted upon the question of
equal suffrage In ecent years. The
question was first submitted In 1900
and was beaten by 2137 votes. In
10 the subject was again up and
the amendment lost by 10.173 votes.
In 1908 the amendment lost out by
a majority of ll.49.
How the people will vote this fall
remains to be seen. In the Judgment
of the East Oregonlan the day when
equal suffrage will be granted, if
ever, rests with the women. As to
their right to the ballot there surely
can be no question, nor can there
be question as to the ability of women
ti use the right of franchise proper
ly. The principal question has to do
with the expediency of granting suf
frage to the gentler sex.
Do the wo-.
I
men want to secure that right with ,
e responsibilities that accompany
the privilege? Whenever the ma
jority of the wamen of Oregon come
to truly want the right to vote it will
rot take them long to obtain that
right.
SENATOR BOURNE'S STAND.
In coming out flatfootedly against
Bowerman and other assembly nomi
nees on the republican ticket Senator
Itourne has taken a courageous stand.
It Is a stand that will make most
ponticians hate him even more than
they do at present. They will raise
the cry that he is a bolter and they
will get their knives ready for him.
Yet Bourne has merely done openly
what hundreds of machine politicians
did in secret two years ago when they
knifed H. M. Cake In the senatorial
election and thereby aided In the elec
tion of Senator Chamberlain. He has
merely done what the ring politicians
of this county have done many times
to candidates of their own party who
were displeasing to them. He has
merely done what these same poli
t'cians will do to C. A. Barrett this
year If they get the opportunity.
if a man distrusts some of the
nominees of his own party why
I should he not bolt them. And If he
!.- going to bolt is It not far better
to net openly, as Senator Bourne has
dr.ne, than to uso the knife in secret?
In the estimation of the East Ore
Ionian Senator Jonathan Bourne has
risen greatly. He has placed citizen
ship "above partisanship; he has sail
It! substance that he will support the
men who uphold the principles In
which he believes and that regardless
of party names. He has broken a
ccnventlonal rulo of politics and a
rule which few public men have the
nerve to break. He has virtually told
the machine politicians of this state
t go to the devil. For his courage
and his independence Senator Bourne
is to be admired.

WHY THE HOY GAVE THANKS.
Allan had played the entire day
with Little Brother without an impa
tient word. After saying his custo
mary prayer that night his mother
suggested that he add: "I thank God
I was not Impatient with Little Broth
er today." This he did with much
fervency; after which he remarked
that there were some other things he
would like to thank God f r, and
forthwith he closed his eyes and said:
"I thank God I offered my candy
to father before taking any myself.
"I thank God I offered my candy
to mother before taking any myself.
"Ithnnk God I offered my candy
to Little Brother before taking any
myself.

REX BEACH IN PANAMA.
The October Everybody's contains
the first Installment of a new serial
story by Rex Beach, entitled "The
N'e'er-Do-Wcll." Five years ago the
first novel of the young writer, "The
Spoilers," was published serially In
Everybody's with Instant recognition,
in the new story Mr. Beach Is said
to do for the Carribean what "The
Spoilers" did for Bering Sea In depict
ing the life and activities of an Am
erican outpost. It Is a plot-romance
of the Panama canal, full of dramatic
movement and power.
"What are you doing these days?"
"Playing the horses."
"No money in that."
"Yes, there is. I get two dollars a
night for Imitating hoofbeats In
melodrama."
Loss of Appetite
Is loss of vitality, vigor or tone, and 19
often a forerunner of prostrating dis
ease. It is serious and especially so to
people that must keep up and doing or
get behindhand.
The best medicine to take for it Is
the great constitutional remedy

s-ay, this is certainly fine fruit you
have here," my friend of the previous
day said ns I came upon him In front
of the Milton-Frecwater booth at the
fair, gazing In astonishment about
him. "Yes. t am glad of this chance
to show you the wonderful results of
a 'little drop of wa'er and a little grain
of s.in 1 this waste country you peo
ple back east are just beginning to un
derstand, irrigation and sub-irriga
j tion. together with well selected va-
rieties and practical cultivation have
produced the most remarkable results
in all fruits and grains. They are un
excelled In size and form anywhere."
"Why. this town is as metropolitan
as Fort Wayne or Terre Haute. I see
you have splendid streets and walks,
lights and water work, colleges, hos
pital and I am told splendid schools
and fire department. I think I'll
stay awhile and look about more."
"Let's go on down on this side and
tike a lo;k through that interesting
Indian collection. Then I wish you
would go with me and I will take you
through a mill which turns out the
most superior Indian blankets and
bath robes of any town In the United
States. These Pendleton blankets are
a guarantee of perfection In weave
and color; It's a big industry and its
products are found on sale from San
Francisco to New York City. Y u
see we rsre in the center of a great
stock country, from which train load
after trainload of cattle and sheep
f;nd their way into distant markets.
If we had time and you cared to go I
could take you down to the stock
pens which are usually crowded at
this time of the year. Fortunes are
made in a single year by this industry
alone.
"Now. if von neonle Inst hnfl the
caDital that is seeking Investment in :
our country," my friend advised, "to
bu:ld an Interurban line out to these
close lying fruit tracts and towns an 1
so open up the country about, this
vould be a wonderful section in a few
years' time. I am told that all the
country close In Is held by a few
wealthy ones who have no need to sen
and in which case your town Is very
much crippled in growth. Why don't
you f irm a syndicate to break the
cond;tion. by buying out some of these
fellows? That would be better than
to wait an indefinite length of time
for a change which may be years in
coming."
"Yes, but who is going to venture
the nr-ney to try the tnrngT Will you

asked

sion ana get- iue parues w no own ine
land to consent to allow such a com

tracts and thus increase the value to
its owner." was his philosophical re
ply. 1 noi.ee you nave so many auios i
for the s ze of the town," he ventured
as we v.T..KCd down court street.
"Yes there is a great deal of wealth
here, and all made locally, I am proud
to say; while you will find a sprink
ling of Pendleton people all the way
from here to Portland and then up
and down the coast who have made
fortunes here in stock and wheat,
they came mostly like you, in the ear
ly days with a little to invest and
w.'thin a few years are able to live In
affluence."
"I have been thinking over all you
have said, my friend and observing
closely the time I have been here, and
I am deeply Impressed by the Ufa, and
business and " promise of Pendleton
and am resolved to tear up my ticket
to the coast and cast my lot among
you. I am going down to the Round
up now and will see you again."
