WIIEUE SKIES SULVE CXEAR
We'll think, when comes the
cheerless scene, and loud
the blizzard blows.
That summer'l make the melon
grreen give color to the
rote.
Then Joy to all the weathers,
Whatever robes they wear;
We're going to the country.
Where the skies shine clear.
We'll smile at gray old winter
with all his stormy
words;
In dreams we hear the music
of Spring's first mock-
insbirds.
Then. Joy to all the weathers
A wreath of Light they
wear,
We're going to the country,
Where the skies shine clear.
Frank I Stanton.
TARDY ASSISTANCE.
Portland papers and Portland peo
ple are just now manifesting great
interest in the Umatilla project and
its hoped for extension. They are
unk in woe because the government
Is not going to make the extension
at this time. Various ways of pro
testing against the slight shown Ore
ton are being considered, though
most that is said and done is influ
enced by politics. One element seeks
to fasten blame upon the Oregon sen
ators. Another element says the
congressmen are to blame because
section nine of the reclamation law
was stricken out in the house.
It is flattering that Portland takes
so much interest in the Umatilla pro
ject J1 at once. A few months ago
when local men were working ear
nestly to bring about the extension of
the project the people of the metro
polis took no such concern In our
welfare. At that time Portland's aid
would have been effective and it
'should have been given because our
fight was Portland's fight also it
they had only realized it. Tet when
our committeemen went to Portland
to enlist the support of those people
they found the Portlanders very wary.
They said In effect they hoped our
extension would be ordered yet they
did not feel like endorsing it for fear
they might by that act offend the peo
pie of Malheur or Klamath. So the
fight for the extension of the Uma
tilla project was waged single hand
ed by the people Of Umatilla county
and we lost.
In getting busy now the Portland
people are showing tardy real. To
the East Oregonlan it looks like they
are offering suggestions after the
horse is dead. Yet possibly there are
things about this matter we do not
understand. Perhaps the extension Is
not hopelessly lost after all and the
Portlanders know how to revive the
nterpri?e. If so then "Let'r buck."
IT IS OS T-IIAL.
Pendleton is again under a licensed
saloon system and if the laws are
properly enforced by the city admin
istration moral conditions will be
improved over what they have been
3urlng the past two years. This will
em strange to many, yet it is a
fact.
Sunday, the first day of the new
year and of the operation of the
home rule law, is said to have been
the dryest Sabbath Pendleton has ex
perienced in years. Why? Because
the saloonmen were afraid to break
Years of Suffering
Catarrh and Blood Disease
Doctors Failed to Curo.
Miss Mabel P. Hawkins, 1214 Lafay
ette 8C, Fort Wayne, Ind., writes:
"For three years 1 was troubled with
catarrh and blood disease. I tried sev
eral doctors and a dosen different rem
edies, but none of them did me any
stood. A friend told ms of Hood's Bar
swpaiilta. I took two bottles of this
medicine and was as well and strong
as ever. I feel Ilk a different person
and recommend Hood's to any one suf
fering from catarrh."

the rules. Each man has paid $1100
for a license and has provided, a sur
ety bond in the sum of $2000 that he
will not violate the law. It Is worth
while for him to be good and to bake
no chances.
For the same reason saloonmen
will not keep their places open nfter
U o'clock at night, they will refuse
to soil liquor to Indians, minors,
blacklisted men and to Intoxicated
persons. On the other hand the blind
pigs knew no Sunday closing, and no
laws against selling liquor to incom
petents. The bliud pigs were beyond
the law.
However, it is too early yet to pro
nounce our new saloon system a suc
cess. The success of the system is
contingent upon the enforcement of
the ordinance. If the saloonmen are
forced to obey the law in spirit and
letter all will be well. If the new
ordinance is allowed to become a
"dead letter" people will become dis
gusted indeed and they will take steps
to make their feelings known.
In drafting the ordinance the of
ficials were moved by a genuine de
sire to serve the public interest not
the saloonmen nor people interested
indirectly In the saloon business. AH-
will be well if this same spirit prevails
when it comes to enforcing the law.
TOO MANY MAKTYRS.
Is it necessary for the progress of
aviation that so many bold men
should be killed? Is it not a fact
that aviation is becoming a sport for
the entertainment of people who want
o see stirring sights rather than a
demonstration of the power of sci
ence over nature? That there should
be some victims must be granted for
the air cannot be conquered if peo
ple remain upon the ground. But
it is not necessary' for men to make
dare devils of themselves merely to
please an audience. When men do
that and die they do not advance the
cause of science. rney may retara
it People like to regard such men
as Hoxsey and Moissant as martyrs to
the cause of progress. But it may be
timely to question whether or not
this view is correct.
COME TO PENDLETON.
While Denver and the middle west
suffered from a blizzard and a tem
perature of 29 below zero on New
Years day, the thermometer at Pen
dleton did not go lower than 19 above
on that occasion. At Portland on
Christmas day a swimming contest
In the Willamette river was held and
many thousands stood in the open air
and watched the event. Those who
den't like the rigorous climate of the
middle states or of the east should
come to the Pacific coast. Before se
lecting a location they should read
what Acting Governor Bowerman says
about the merits of Pendleton.
There was irony in the decision of
the supreme court, regarding the fa
mous detective case. Given on the
last day of the old year and Just as
the prohibition law went by the board
the decision will have little effect, as
far as Umatilla county is concerned
at least.
Many New Year's resolutions are
made and some people keep them.
Have you learned to write 1911?
Judge Maloney is now at the helm,
THE TRUE EQUALITY.
"The late Senator Dolliver." said a
Washington editor, according to the
Post of that city, "owed a great part
of his success to his thorough under
standing of the American character.
"He understood the American peo
ple and he admired and sympathized
with them. I'll never forget an after
dinner speech of his on 'Equality.
"He said that In America we un
derstood by equality not that we were
all equals In learning, In Intellect and
so forth, but that we were all equals
In the power to be good and honor
able and generous.
"And he told, by way of illustration,
how a Fort Dodge church once gave
a charity concert where the vest tal
ent volunteered the city's leading
singers, elocutionists and actors.
"At the end of the concert the
chairman went up to the organ loft
and said to the little boy In patched
clothes who had blown the organ:
" "Well, Freddie, what do we owe
you for your work this evening?'
'The little boy looked at the chair
man in genuine astonishment.
"'Why, sir,' he said, 'didn't the rest
of the talent give their services?'"
AS IT LOOKED TO HER.
It isn't always easy to know Just
how children will take a story. A de
voted mother tells of her discomfiture
when, after explaining to her little
son a picture of Christian martyrs be
ing devoured by lions, the child bursH
Into tears.
"Never mind, dear; It's only a pic
ture," she cried, touched by this evi
dence of extreme sensibility. "Mother
didn't mean to make you feel bad."
But the sympathizer was not to be
comforted.
"Mamma, mamma," he sobbed bit
terly, pointing to the picture. There's
a poor little lion down there In the
corner that ain't getting any at all I"
There is no such thing as "The
Queen's English." The property has
gone Into the hands of a Joint stock
company and we own the bulk of the
shares.
SPEAK KIXDI.Y.
Let us shower sunshine round us;
for a gentle word of cheer
May be like delightful music to a
melancholy ear.
Let us never breathe a whisper that
suggests unfriendliness.
For we never can be certain whom we
happen to address.
Rill -Brown spoke' rudely to a man
Who stepped upon his feet
And smashed him when he made? re
ply. With pardonable heat.
Hard words were passed, hard, bitter
words
Like "Mutt" and Yay" and "Slob."
The person was Hill Brown's new boss,
And Bill has lost his Job.
Let us keep our hasty tempers till
they get a chance to cool;
Lot us make extreme politeness our
invariable rule.
For The man we think has wronged
us may have done so by mis
take. And It's wiser to remember how much
trouble he can make.
It wa$ the tender of the bridge
Whom Jones addressed In anger,
Because' he drew the bridge with
slow,
Premeditated languor.
But when Jones In his car returned
Full speed ahead he found
Too late the man had drawn the
bridge
And Jones alas was drowned.
Let us scatter seeds of kindness as we
Journey on our way.
Let us think of others' feelings, ere
a stinging word we say.
For the erring human brother, whom
we wantonly attack
May be wounded by our harshness;
and besides, he might get back.
John Smith rebuked a barber one,
For clipping off his ear.
The barber's pride was deeply stung;
He shed a scalding tear.
And when he shaved John Smith again
His rancor grew and grew,
Until quite overcome with rage "
He cut John's head off too.
Kennett Harris.
THERE WERE ONLY TWO.
"How do you suppose Noah spent
the time in the ark during the flood?"
was the question put to some lively
urchins.
"Prayin'." suggested Willie.
"Fi8hln" ventured Dick.
"Humph!" came the contemptuous
grunt of a third member of the group.
"He'd haTe a fine time fishin' with
only two worms!"
Courage Is resistance to fear, mas
tery of fear, not absence of fear. Ex
cept a creature be part coward, it Is
not a compliment to say it is brave;
it Is merely a loose misapplication of
the word. Consider the flea in.
c( mparably the bravest of all the crea
tures of God If Ignorance of fear were
courage. Whether you are asleep or
awake, he will attack you, caring
nothing for the fact that in bulk and
strength you are to him as are the
massed armies of the earth to a suck
ling child; he lives both day and night
and all days and nights in the very
lap of peril and the immediate pres
ence of death, and yet Is no more
afraid than is the man who walks
the streets of a city that was threat
ened by an earthquake ten centuries
before. When we speak of Clive,
Nelson and Punam as men who
didn't know what fear was" we ought
always to add the flea and put him
at the head of the procession. 1
Rotten Lnck.
Mother What is the matter with
you, Billy?
Billy Little Johnny has moved
he has left the street. Booh, booh!
"Well. Don't cry; there are many
other little boys to play with In the
neighborhood."
"Yes, but he Is the only one that I
could lick."
Mark Twain at a Hotel.
"This place Is delightful and the
inn is Paradise on earth, but the walls
are so thin that I could hear the lady
In the next room every time she
changed her mind."
