It is not so long to the end of
Life's day,
If you go in a gallop, or walk
the rough way;
And then the last sun, where
the still dreamers stay!
It isn't so long for the song and
the sigh.

blue o' the sky;
And even the storm-winds are
breathing "Ooodby!"

Isn't so long. Let us

From the beautiful dreams of
the light of tomorrow!

SETTLE IT THIS TIME.
This is about the 'steenth time the
proposition of closing Aura and Lilleth
streets has been taken up by the
Commercial club or by the c'ty coun
cil. Will the matter be adjusted this
time or will it be left unfinished aa
utual?
It should not be an impossibility to
close the two streets in question and
at the same time satisfy all concern
ed. The convenient of the O.-W.
company requires the closing of the
streets. The present arrangement is
unsatisfactory and it is dangerous.
The railroad is not unreasonable 'n
aking for the closing of the streets.
If the company is t6t operate here It
must have sufficient room for its pur
poses. If the freight division is to be
brought here the company will re
quire more room than at present and
it will be up to local people to assist
the company in getting such land ai
P. will need. It will be good business
for us to treat the railroad company
right.
But it Is true also that the property
owners who might be affected ad
versely by closing Aura and Lilleth
streets must be considered. Because
the railroad needs the streets does
not mean that small property owners
should be Injured without compensa
tlon In order to give the company
what it needs. There should be some
way of arriving at the damages and

closing of those streets. If it can be
shown that some property owners will
suffer bona fide damages then , the
matter should be made right with
them. The East Oregonian is of the
opinion the railroad company will be
ready to do what is reasonable along
this line. Railroad officials are not
monsters who try to crush poor men
and widows and orphans whenever
t)u,.. can As a matter of fact they
are usually very liberal In dealing

dent of the Commercial club is the
man for the Job. If he can handle it
he will be entitled to a leather medal
for up to this time all efforts' to settle
the affair have been futile.
WIXL TO DROP IT.
Nothing more is being said in the
press regarding a move to refer the
appropriations of the agricultural col
lege, the state university and the Mon
mouth normal school. The silence in
dicates that the McMinnvllle people
may have taken a second thought and
decided to drop the matter. If so
they are showing splendid Judgment.
Such a wholesale referring of school
appropriations this year would have
been inexcusable. It would have seri
ously Injured the schools and would
rt.ve placed Oregon in a bad light be
fore the thousands of colonists who
are rushing to the northwest to locate,
f'tw people of Intelligence would care
to settle in a state that Is so narrow
cr so parsimonious as to be forever
fighting and hampering its institutions
o learning.
To refer the school appropriations
would also bring the referendum Into
disfavor. The referendum is not an
instrument to be used for revenge or
any other unworthy purpose. It should
be used sparingly and it is doubtful
if it should ever at any time be used
to hold t'p an educational appropri
ation. The schools are usually en
titled to ull the money they can get
and to more. Money expended in
upbuilding the colleges and in Increas
ing their efficiency is well Invested.
If they have dropped the referen
dum move the people of McMinnvllle
have shown good sense. Were they
to continue with such a program they
would hurt others but would do
themselves no good. They would
bring state wide reproach upon Mc
Mlnnville and make the name of that
town a by-word of hate among thou
ands of rtudents and former students
of the state schools.
WHY THE UNDERLING?-
News reports from Danville show
that 35 Indictments have been re
turned against men who are charged
with election offences. But the story
says that those indicted were all
"workers about the polls." No lead
ing politicians or citizens are in the
l.'st. In this particular tho case 's
similar to the New York custom
house Investigations which resulted In
the conviction of some weighers and
wharf hands but of no "higher ups.

THE RULING PASSION.
The automobile was speeding along
the crowded thoroughfare. Something
went wrong with the car, and the
chauffeur became helpless.
"Do something, do something,"
said the owner, who, although rich,
was noted for his stinginess.
"I've done everything I can," said
the chauffeur.
"Then you've lost all control of It "
the owner anxiously InJulred.
"Yes, sir," said the chauffeur.
"Are you absolutely sure that you
cannot stop It?"
"Yes, Blr."
The rich miser lay back and clospd
his eyes. "Then run it into sometnmg

VERY POOR SOAP.
A farmer came to the city the oth
er day, and among other things he
visited a high class restaurant. His
appetite ran to cheese, and, inquiring
of the waiter what sort of cheese was
listed, remarked that he desired
something new."
"Why don't you try a bit of roque
fort?" suggested the waiter.
"What's that " asked the farmer.
Hang It," he added, "bring me some
I like the name, anyway."
He ate It and liked it. So .e
thought he would take some home to
the wife. Arriving late, he laid the
small cheese wrapped In silver paper
on the sideboard.
He forgot to Inquire nbout It till
next night and then fce asked his wrr
how she liked It. J
"Oh, I s'pnRe it's mighty stylish up
