the association carried to its logical
conclusion is nothing more nor less
than the single tax proposition of
Henry Oeorge.- This is made very
clear in the paragraph concerning
water rights which makes the follow
ing demand:
Payment of reasonable compensa

people with periodical readjustment
of the rate of compensation, so as to
insure justice, both to the Investor

better than they have been for years
and where scarcely a vacant house
la to be seen.
It is not true of course that Pen
dleton's population is no greater now
than 20 years ago. The town has
made a slow but substantial growth.
There are reasons for believing the j
growth in the future will be greater
than in the past. The branch asylum
and other things already in sight will
ircrea.se Pendleton's population. The
rate decision just given by the inter
state commerce commission promises
tc build up all interior cities and Pen
dleton should be one of the chief
fjainers in view of its geographical
position and railroad facilities.
But even if the town had no more
people than 20 years ago that would
be no argument against placing tho
electric wires underground. Other
material improvements have been
made. The streets have been paveD.
A sewer system has been Installed
and is now being extended. New
school landings have been erected,
new bridges built, and a mountain
water system ordered.
For these civic improvements the
people have paid and are paying. The
home owner, the merchant and the
men who own the business blocks fur
i.ish the money that pay for these im
provements Why should the elect
ric trust be made exempt? It has the
best paying business In the city. If
property owners pay for paving the
ureets, for laying concrete walks and
for the installation of (luster lights
v by should not the electric company
I f required to get its poles and over
load wire off the business streets?
Why has this Improvement been de-j
la yed fO long?
The answer is not bard to find. It

Voitgotr.ery who serve the interest

A well intentioned friend of mine
Came blithly up to me,
lie had a burden on his heart,
As anyone could see.
'I notice you are thin and lean
And seared with worldly care;
Why don't you sleep out on the porch
And breathe the fresh night air?"
And so I slept out on the porch
As you can plainly see
And if you contemplate the same,
O pray you look at me!
An hour or two I gazed on high
Enraptured by a star,
Then slumbered Just in time to be
Awakened by a car.
Again I dozed a wdnk or two,
Then awakened with a start,
A drunken man was asking me
Where is the water cart?"
And Just as I dropped orr again.
To dream of pumpkin pies.
Next door some serenaders sang
' "tirink to me with thine eyes."
They quit at 3 A. M. and I
Sighed, "That's the last of that,"
Alas! my trusting, guileless heart
Had quite forgot the cat.
At 4 A. M. the sun arose
And smote my dreaming bean,
He sat down on the porch with me
And tickled up my spleen.
The Iceman came at 6 a. m.
And told me It was hot
And said the breweries all might fall
By noon as like as not.
At 6 the youngster bounded out
And asked me how I felt;
I grabbed a loose suspender up
And walloped him a welt.
And here I sit with pent up wrath
And murder in my heart;
If-once I meet that 'outdoor guy
He'll need a 10 mile start.
