Selected.
FINANCING THE ROUND-UP.
Tomorrow morning actual work will
rbe undertaken in behalf of a Greater
"Sound-up. The preliminary plans for
improving and enlarging the show
have all been worked out and the 17
.acre Matlock tract has been bargaln-
ed for. The directors now want the
money with which to carry out their
plans and in the morning nine sub-
- committees will go forth to raise a
. fund of J12.000.
It should not be hard at all for the
. committees to raise this sum. It is a
small amount when the magnitude of
the Round-up is considered and when
. consideration is given to the benefits
1 Pendleton derives from the big fron
. tier show.
'The Round-up is making the name
of Pendleton known far and wide.
Local people returning from other
. sections of the northwest report that
interest in the show is widespread
and genuine and that thousands are
, planning to come here next fall to
witness the spectacle. One Umatilla
- county man who has Just returned
from a trip to Washington, D. C, re-
: ports that while in that city he was
- frequently asked regarding the Round"
' np. The fame of our show has ac
r tually spread from shore to shore.
From the Round-up Pendleton is
getting much advertising and it is
, getting business. From the thousands
who will be here this fall to see the
show local people will collect more
money than will be needed to finance
the Round-up. Then the Round-up
reuses a local spirit that is beneficial.
The big show creates stir and enthu
siasm that brings on other benefits,
' The Round-up held last fall did much
t! create a spirit of optimism that Is
' now prevalent in local circles.
In view of what the Round-up has
done and will do for this city surely
( local property owners and business
men may well afford to back It liber
ally. The officers and directors have
worked out their plans and estimates
carefully. They are all trustworthy
business men and they are working
olely out of local patriotism. They
are asking for no more money than
Is actually needed and no money will
' be wasted.
Prepare to give liberally and cheer
' fully to the financing of the Greater
- Round-up.
The $12,000 that Is needed should
be raised within a few hours tomor
' row.
WHY WAS IT DONE TIIUSLY?
' If present reports from Washington
r may be relied upon, and they seem
i reliable, then there Is good prospect
' that the Umatilla project will be ex
tended. It la true the work cannot
"le carried out at once. Tet the ex
preliminary work accomplished with
money drawn from the general re
clamation fund.
Just why the government' an
nouncement regarding the Umatilla
project was not made sooner seems
queer. Doubtless it has been Intend
ed all the time that this work should
be done. It is inconceivable that a
few resolutions by commercial clubs
und some night messages have caus
ed the government to revise Its In
tentions with reference to reclamation
work that involves the expenditure
of ninny millions.
To be plain it looks like the gov
ernment has been "playing horse"
with this state and if so it would be
interesting to know why. Is it pos
sible that the administration does not
like the Oregon system of direct
nominations and direct legislation and
takes this means of showing its dis
approval? Is it possible the admin
istration politicians were offended be
cause the people of Oregon voted for
a progressive democrat for governor
in preference to a reactionary re
publican? Or was the government's
action the result of a neatly laid
scheme to discredit the Oregon sena
tors. This latter seems the most
plausible for the "powers that be" in
the republican party in Oregon de
light in hazing our senators and they
seem to have the administration with
them In their game.
From a local standpoint these fea
tures of the case are of little import'
ence, it is true. If the project is to
be extended that is enough. We will
not worry greatly over the political
aspects of the project extension. Tet
speculation as to the cause of the gov
ernment's peculiar behavior seems in
order and therefore the foregoing Is
offered for. what it is worth.
DR. M'CLURES PROMOTION.
In the selection of Dr. S. W. Mc
Clure to be the permanent secretary
for the National Woolgrowers asso
ciation a Pendleton man has been
highly honored. The position of sec
retary to this organization is an im
portant one for naturally the success
of the association depends largely up
on the earnest and energetic work of
the secretary. Dr. McClure seems
especially qualified for such a position
as this and in one respect he has
qualifications that should be of es
pecial value. By reason of his ex
perience in the bureau of animal in
dustry he has a wide knowledge of
the work being done by the govern
ment for the protection and better
ment of the sheep business and of the
livestock industry in general.
Through his experience and special
training Dr. McClure will be in a po
sition to do much for the advance
ment of the Industry throughout the
United States. Aside from serving as
secretary of the national association
e will also be able to furnish grow-
ers with scientific-practical infor
mation upon subjects in wheh they
are vitally concerned.
It is too bad the election of Dr.
McClure as. national secretary will
necessitate his leaving Pendleton yet
it will be a source of satisfaction to
our woolgrowers' to know that they
have a close friend in one of the lm
portant national offices.
The $12,000 needed by the Round
up association will not only finance
the Round-up but it will also provide
for a splendid athletic stadium that
will be used for baseball and foot
ball games and for lnterscholastlc
track meets. Pendleton needs such a
stadium and it should be close In, as
the Matlock track is located, so as
to promote attendance.
Things are coming our way these
days and the announcement that the
Nevada, California & Oregon will
build a line from Alturas to Pendleton
sounds good. It may be all a dream
it must be admitted. But then this
la the land where dreams come true
and perhaps this one will material
Ize.
Peary's story would be more Inter
esting had not the same subject been
treated of so extensively by another.
It sSems peculiar that a'bank bear
ing the name of Carnegie should close
for want of funds.

IRISH ANGELS IN OFFICE.
Under the "rotation system" which
applies to most of the country legis
lative districts In Massachusetts, the
small towns take turns in' selecting
the members. It Isn't often a town
has one of its own citizens represent
ing it In Boston. ' That's why the
neighbors were so anxious to get his
impressions when Uncle Si Cramer
came home after the first session.
Uncle SI couldn't be pinned down
on the query whether he believed
there had been any grafting during
his term of service.
"Well, SI," said Michael O'Hara,
finally, "an' did yes get the impres
sion there was any angela besides yer
sllf in the leglslatur?"
"Well, I tell ye," said Uncle 81. "So
fur-as angela is concerned, I seen a
heap- of harps, like you, but no wings."

Stuff and nonsense! It's Just child

If you had the proper treatment ,It
would be a thorough spanking.

I am blessed with some possessions.
You might almost call me

And I freely made admission I'm in
variably healthy;
I have friends, a loving helpmate and
sweet children, and I'm grate

But if all were lost tomorrow I would
not be mean and hateful.
I am sure I'd bear it nobly, I would
rise to the occasion,
I would gladly face the music, with
no weakness or evasion,
I'd not nurse a grief or pet it; I
would smilingly defy It

BUILDING A LOG CABIN.
"A log cabin Is cozier than any
tent when Jack Frost is abroad," says
Horace Kephart in the December
Outing. He continues:
"When one has been out all day In
the snow, it is good to come back to
a big stone fireplace full of crackling
logs. It is good to have a dry floor,
a wall of pegs and shelves; to have
benches or stools, and a big table.
chests that are vermin-proof, and a
cupboard full of handy things that no
nomad can tote around.
"That is what many a hunter will
be thinking before the big game sea
son Is over, and many a one will be
planning some sort of hut for seasons
to come.
"Since good hunting is seldom found
in the neighborhood of a sawmill, a
lumberyard, or a wagon road, the
crux of the cabin scheme Is how to
get roofing material. Bark Is flimsy
and will scarce outlast the season.
Tarred paper what is more hideous
ly unfit than a paper covering over
honest log walls? Such a 'roof fairly
shrieks against Its surroundings, and
they groan in answer. Anyway, pa
per requires sawed boards underneath
and the only way to get those boards
Is to whip them out with a pit or mo
le; saw. A back-breaking task, In
deed! "The thing to do is to rive clap
boards from trees that grow on the
spot. A clapboard Is simply a thin
board from two to four feet long,
spit or worked with a froe from
straightgrained timber. It is a little
thicker along one edge than the oth
er, being split from bolts.
"A clapboard roof Is dependable. It
harmonizes better than" any other
with the general woodsy effect. When
properly laid, It Is storm-proof and
will not cup. It will last a genera
tion." DIVINE RIGHT WILLIAM.
The indications are that Kaiser Wil
helm's "divine right theory" is going
to have a hard, cold winter, says a
writer In Success Magazine." The so
cialists, led by Herr Ledebour, recent
ly made a bitter attack In the Reich
stag upon the emperor's Koenlngsburg
speech, openly accusing him of dis
torting history In the effort to prove
that the ancient Prussian kings de
rived authority from anything but the
will, of the people and frankly avow
ing their Ideal to make Germany a re
public. The attack was unprecedent
ed In its frankness and it is evident
that freedom of speech has made
great headway in the German Em
pire, The imperial chancellor had a
hard task defending his royal mas
ter's proposition.
With the constitutional victories in
Turkey and Persia, .with the republic
of, Portugal well under way, wth the
king of Spain making desperate con
cessions In order to retain his crown,
with representative government soon
to be established In. China and with
rumblings of revolt In Belgium
Greece, Egypt and India, It Is evident
that the "open season" for divine
right theories Is at hand. '
OVERPAID HIM.
"Yes," says the large man with the
heavy watchguard, "I paid Juggins
$1000 for his vote In the legislature,
and I'm mighty sorry I did It'
"Why?" asks the man with the red
and green striped shirt. "Did he turn
state's evidence?"
"No, but I learned afterward that
he only wanted $200 for his vote In the
first place." Chicago Post.

"DO MEN LACK CULTURE?"
"Do Men Lack Culture?" Is the
theme of a brief but forceful paper
by Joheph M. Rogers, In the January
Lippincott's.
"The fact is undoubted that even
according to our own standards, wo
men have apparently a higher culture
or at least a higher veneer of culture
than men taking the average," de
clares Mr. Rogers. "The visitors at
art galleries are almost exclusively
women and the symphony concerts
and muBlcal recitals of all kinds would
perish but for their patronage. Al
though men attend the theater and
the opera, it is largely on the Initia
tive of the women, while women are
by far the greater readers of books
especially of fiction. With all this. It
Is not true that of the really cultured
people In this country a majority are
women. The feminine mind Is intui
tive and receptive, but seldom logical
or constructive. Woman gets her cul
ture largely by plastering it on the
outside of a gentle nature and an emo
tional personality. The man gets his
culture by profound thought and or
iginal Investigation. The things which
really develop culture are almost
wholly produced by men which
seems a sufficient answer.
"The matter Is further complicated
by the fact that women are apt to
keep all their goods in the shop-win
dow. This Is no blame to them; It is
essentially a part of their nature. The
man of real culture Is generally a
silent, unobtrusive person. He shines
only In the company of men like him
self: He Is likely to give a false lm
presslon of Indifference, especially in
the presence of women, because he
does not like blue stockings and be
cause he feels that women do not go
to the bottom of things, and to dis
cuss the shell Is a waste of time.

in question probably meant, ' Is that
the American woman shows more
traces of refinement tnan the man,
which is a very different proposition.
It Is true that women have by far the
greater opportunities, and that they
largely employ them. But any true
woman is able to give of that refine
ment to others. It is a very 111 assort
ed couple where the husband does
not In some mysterious way absorb
some of that refinement which is his'
wife's In large measure by nature,
and which she readily acquires In
many ways. The business man In this
age has a hard task. If, when he
comes home tired, he Is not given of
his wife's mental and spiritual nature,
It is a grevlous lack indeed. The Im
pressive thing is that, however one
approaches the subject and whatever
data is employed, the progress of both
sexes In the direction or higher and
better things Is constant."
GOING SOME.
The recently appointed chief Jus
tice Is a pretty good story teller. He
was formerly a Louisiana sugar plant
er, and this Is one of the stories at
tributed to him:
Two negroes on a Louisiana planta
tion became Involved In a row with
another Ethoplan who was handy with
a gun. The two started to run about
the time the bad man began to shoot.
The fleeing ones had proceeded about
100 yards when the following dia
togue occurred:
"Sam, you hear dat bullet?"
"Yes, I hearn It two times."
"How you mean two times?" asked
the questioner, as he quickened his
pace.
"I hearn dat bullet once when It
passed me, and den anudder time
when I passed it," jerked out Sam be
