Beneath the ocean's sapphire lid We gaze far down, and who had tit earned, Till pure and cold its treas- ures gleamed, What lucent jewels there lay hid?- r.ed sparks that give the del- phin pause, Lamps of the ocean-elf, and gems Long lost from crystal dia- dems. a And veiled in shrouds of glow ing gauze. :-plendid and chill those gar- dens shone, Where sound is not, and tides are winds Where, fugitive, the naiad finds Eternal autumn, hushed and lone; Till jr.e had said that in her bow're , Were mixed the . nacres of the dawn, That thence the sunset's dyes were drawn, And there the rainbow- sank its tow'rs. Sunset. THE FACTS OF THE CASE. The meat in the cocoanut of the fight against a mountain water sys tem for Pendleton is the fact the Byeis miliing company does not wan; the city to take water from the Uma tilla river or from any spring that flows into the river above the head gate of ;he Pycrs mill race. It is feared by the milling company that the installation of such a water system would lessen the mill's power supply. It may be their fears are well grounded. But if so the company will have a chance to get redress. A damage suit may be brought and the city forced to pay for any losses that can be proven. But the milling company is not content to work along such open and legitimate lines. The company is not only playing its own game but It is trying to tell the city how to wage its end of the fight. It is striving to di vide the forces that favor mountain water in hopes nothing will be accom plished. It is entirely possible there is not enough water in the Thorn Hollow springs to supply the needs of the city. It so the water commission and its engineers will ascertain the fact when the springs are developed and the wa ter measured. There is no need for alarm. Chairman Brown of the wa ter commis-ion ha expressly stated t me and ngiin that no effort will be rna ie to s-!l the IZtKi.Oim bon i issue until p. laorough tost has ,heen made f the Thorn Ho'.K.w supply. All the 1 res;-t;t palaver about running a hp' .a! and N ed p..;; it : f. the ai'i to the .springs i.-? needless !::. f.-r what mav be term- 1 n -t nr tK-r a tink-rs darn "m-nts of a mountain wa ter sysf rn whether there is enough voter at Thorn Hollow or not. The mil-ire .o::ipar:y would oppose the piop' :-i:i .r, just the same. In the ta-t t!..: i.'.-ii hat been suggested of V-'U.i, to th- north fork of the Uma tii'.a ri.-r :'..r l. water -upply. There i..- ar. ,i'dr..!atKfc of j ure, coll water tl-i-ie. y,.t ..vri'-ri the plan was sug gested the v ry men who are now ac tive agtiir.st Thorn HuIva- were the loudest in shouting against going to the north fork. At that time they said the scheme was impossible, im practicable, unbusinesslike, socialistic nd a half dozen other things. Those men would be fighting the North Fork project, now if it were up for consideration. No doubt thero are some people who . honestly oppose a mountain vatr r system for Pendleton and do so from what they consider good reasons. For such as they this criti cism is not intended. They are en titled to their views and their views are worthy of respect Hut the livers milling compuny con. stltutes the backbone of the onrio- Jsitlon to the new water system. jMost of those hiking part in the or Ipanized fiKht against Thorn Hollow jare acting in behalf of the milliner 'company ami for purely sMfish rea sons. They are not fiphtinK the I Thorn Hollow project so much ns they .are fighting a mountain water sys tem. The mill company wants no .water system under which the supply will be secured from n point above its mill race. T,'e members of this knocking bri j nre in improper -business and j!hoy should be civen scant consider- . uou. one ana all they should be t- Id to "So chase themselves around me kiock and that the people of i Pendleton, through their nffi,.iiu 1 will establish a mountain water sys tem to uiit themselves and without any advice from the Pyers milling company or any of its agents. Till: TRUTH Wll.I. OUT. I The cat lias been partly let out of i the bag. it is a bad thing for Pen- illeton, tne knockers say, to take on a $200,000 mortgage in order to get a mountain water supply. Such words i of wisdom coming from the source . i , M.y do are almost enough to strangle i " luiu tne suncuuue displayed is su:fkii-ru to bring tears to the eyes of brass alligator. T:K'ii all the opposition does not on,0 ;r,in the alleged fact that there ;s no -water in the Thorn Hollow soring. Well!- Well! Xow come through with a further confession. Admit openly and frankly ti.at the veal reason why no moun .in water system should be installed that such a system might interfere with the y.vtrs mill. a sKNsiM.K cor USE. Most assuredly the government ;-'i :uM mine the Alaska coal and sell at cost to the public. Vnder such a course the government would not se a cent and the people would irain ' ntnenseiy. .. The Morgans and the '.iirgenh-.-ims would be the only los ers. But they have no right to the government to turn valuable ask oal fields over to them for their own en lieh.nent. Tt would be assinine for the government to do so. The time is ripe for great change in our ceo-r.o.-r.i s-. r.t-m and --re is a roo 1 place t-.; begin.
