And as I looked ray question

My petty self seemed feeble,
chained and barred.
But man I knew would tri

Where each shall live him

And each, unmocked, shall
round his destiny.
And justice shall smile down
with starry eyes.
For, as with Night the spark

So shall there come a

In taking up a campaign for
cheaper lights and power the Com
mercial club is doing work that should
result in tangible good to the city. If
the move is successful we will obtain
a reduction that will mean the sav
ing of part of the many thousands
of dollars now paid the Pacific Power
& Light company every month."
It U a matter of common report
and has been for a long time that
Pendleton patrons of the gas and el
ectric company have not been treated
with the same liberality as have the
people of Walla Walla and other
towns In Washington. This is said to
be true with reference to electricity
for lighting and power purposes and
also with reference to gas.
Why is this? Is it right for the
company to give cheap rates to Wash- I
Ington towns and then make its divi
dends by charging high prices in
Pendleton? Certainly it is not. Pen
dleton does not wish to be the "goat"
and will not be if , local people can
help themselves.
And there are ways of helping our
etlves if we have to use them. The
kist legislature passed the Malarkey
public service commission bill and
T.hen that law becomes operative the
railroad commission will have the
power to regulate the service and the
rates of light, power and gas com
panies. In all probability the com
mission would rule that Pendleton is
entitled to the same rates as the
Washington towns.
Then there is another recourse open
to the people of Pendleton. If pow
er and iights cannot be had at Just
rates from the present company a
municipal electric plant may be In
atalled. Ey going to the north fork
of the Umatilla river ample power
may be obtained. Many good busi
nessmen feel Pendleton should ob
tain and develop that power when It
constructs its mountain water sys
tem Fred Walters, the milling man,
has also fug'eti'l at times he might
develop additional power and sup
ply Pendleton w ith c lertri city.
But It Is more than probable that
v; hen full attention Is called to the
inequality in the comparative rates
a reduction wl:l be made for the
benefit of the Pendleton patrons by
the Pacific power Light company.
The managers of that company are
capable and reasonable bu.-lnesH.men.
They know the people of this city
are but showing common business
sense in asking for lower rates and
that the patrons of anv public service
corporation are entitled to be heard
with reference to the rates charged
by such a corporation. If they have
a proper conception cf their own du
ties in the matter they will feel no re
sentment that this subject nan been
raised. On the coirtrary they will
meet our people frankly and openly
and grant auch reductions as will be
Just and equitable.

In Walla Walla the ministerial as
sociation has requested that the
newspapers publish their Sunday an
nouncement in the Saturday evening
editions instead of in the Sunday
morning papers as has been the cus
tom in the pitst. The reverend gen
tlemen fear they are participating in
the violation of the Sabbath when
their notices appear in the Sunday
papers. They need not wjjrry greatly
on that score. Nevertheless the Wal
la Walla clergy are on the right track
when they request that their notices
be published Saturday evening. An
evening paper Is read by the people
while a morning paper is merely
scanned. Arising late on the Sabbath
day no man or woman, no matter how
devout, is going to spend much time
I reading the morning paper. The
I church announcement are pretty li
able to be overlooked entirely.
If practical sense and religion go
hand in hand then the Walla Walla
ministers do very well.

We know of no other medicine which has been so suc
cessful in relieving the suffering of women, or secured so
many genuine testimonials as has Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound.
In almost every community you will find women who
have been restored to health by Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg
etable Compound. Almost ever)' woman you meet has
either been benefited bv it, or knows some one who has.
In the Finkham Laboratory at Lynn, Mass., are files con
taining over one million one hundred thousand letters from
women seeking health, in which many openly state over
their own ygr.atures that they have regained their health by
taking Ly.Ua E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has saved
many women from surgical operations.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is made ex
clusively from roots and herbs, and is perfectly harmless.
The reason why it is so successful is because it contains
ingredients which act directly upon the female organism,
restoring it to healthy and normal activity.
Thousands of unsolicited and genuine testimonials such
as the following prove the efficiency of this simple remedy.
Coloma, 'Wisconsin. " For throe years I was
troubled with female weakness, irregularities,
backache and hearing down pains. I saw an ad
vertisement of Lydia K. I'inkhani's VeKetftblo
Compound and decided to try it. After taking
several bottles I found it was helping me, and I
I in list say that I am perfectly well now and can
not thank you enough for what Lydia 10. l'ink-
iham's Vegetable Compound has done for me."
Mrs. John Wentland, 1U F. V., No. 3, Box (JO,
iColoma, "Wisconsin.
Women who are suffering from those dis
tressing ills peculiar to their sex should not lose sight of
these facts or doubt the ability of Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg
etable Compound to restore their health.
