I am the gentle breeze
That blows In spring
The thing .
Concerning which the poets
sing
Their melodies.
I flip hats through the street;
I rout
The microbes out
And 9end them forth to meet
The man who fails to close
His mouth or use his nose
For breathing purposes. I make
The mobble skirt
Look like a pair ot tights. , I'm
wild and free;
I break
Through windows, and I flirt
"With destiny.
I am the gentle breeze;
I scatter dust
Upon the wicked' and the just;
When buds begin to bulge
I rip off signs and uproot trees.
I cause old people's 'bones to
ache;
I make
The rich depart for warmer
climes,
And carelessly betimes
I cause the poets to indulge
In rhapsodies,
S. E. Kiser.

WIION THE MAN.
The ftght the reactionaries are mak
ing on Woodrow Wilson should spur
the democrats of Oregon to give their
full strength to the New Jersey man.
The allles'are shrewdly seeking to
S3 handle their forces in the various
states as to prevent the nomination of
Wilson. The men really behind the
move would like to name Harmon. He
is the democrat Wall street Wants to
see put forth. But if Harmon cannot
be nominated anyone of the other
two or three candidates will be taken
in preference to Wilson.
The interests are making war on
Wilson because he is a staunch foe
machine politics and is an advo
cate of direct legislation and direct
seminations. He would put the peo
ple In closer control of their govern
ments. All his speeches ring with
this idea and his record as governor
of New Jersey shows that when given
a place of power he is a tremendous
force for good government.
Governor Wilson is the logical man
for the democrats to name for the
presidency. If he is named it will be
a triumph for liberal democracy and
Wilson will be elected against Taft.
He will be elected because the people
realize fully that the great need of
the hour in this country is a closer
connection between the people and the
government. They have found that
professional politicians cannot be re
lied upon. They serve special inter
eats rather than the popular will.'
This Is true all over the United States
aad. the fact was never more appar
ent tfcaa right at the present time.
If Oregon democrats 'believe in the
recom system of government they
wll oast their votes at the primary
election for Governor Wilson.
GO DO TUB WORK.
This paper fails to see why there
should be any trouble or any squab
ble over the subject of paving be
tween the rails of the Northern Pa
cific track. Most assuredly wherever
Webb street is paved the track should
also be improved and the company
should pay for It. It will be an out
rage to exempt the company.
But why talk about it? Why not
have the city go ahead, do the Job and
make the company pay for It, Just as
other property owners pay. If a pri
vate party says he won't stand for
paving work the city does not get up
o. its knees and say, "Please Mister,
won't you let us pave In front of your
property." Instead the city proceeds
1 1 do the work and the gentleman is
required to pay for the same.
Many months ago, when the paving
of the bloilc between Main and Cot
tonwood streets was first proposed,
this paper suggested to the city of
ficials that 'they also order the pav
ing of the track, at the company's ex
pense. The East Oregonlan is at a
loss to understand why the city does
not act. There Is no need of rhetoric,
resolutions or boycotts. Tou cannot
pave streets with words. Action is
what is needed. "Where , there's a
will there's a way."
A SHAKE-UP NEEDED.
What sort of an aggregation com
poses the school machine of this coun
ty of which Frank K. Welles is the
titular head? What sort of fellows
have been employed by Mr. Welles,
at much expense to the taxpayers, to
go forth as rural supervisors?
These questions are prompted ty a
story which this paper publishes to
day and which on its face Is a tale
ot unheard of arrogance y a super
visor in which he is upheld by Welles.
The story shows how a veteran teach,
er, with a long teaching record to her
credit and holding the highest state
papers, was summarly dismissed tin
ker circumstances that point plainly
to miserable spite work by the super
visor. It was an outrage upon de
cency and an Insult to the school peo
rle of this county.
If the story of Mrs. Ralston is true,
and the East Oregonlan gives it full
credit, there Is undreamed of rotten
ness and Inefficency In the adminis
tration of school affairs in this county.
I: Is not sufficient for a teacher to
have the best credentials going and
to have an excellent record as a
teacher. She must also be careful lest
she offend the gods that be. She must
kow-tow properly and talk soft and
nice to the supervisor or he will find
technical faults and bring about her
discharge.
It is time for a clean-up in the
school management of this county.
The taxpayers of the county do not
pay out hundreds of thousands of
dollars o keep school affairs in the
hands of such men as this. ' There is
urgent need of at least one change in
the rural supervisor force. There is
need of a manly, capable official in
the county superintendent's office
who will give teachers a square deal
even if they do not have votes.
The East Oregonlan has believed
this for a long time past. It Is now
more convinced than ever as to the
need of a shake-up.
THE OLD TOWN.
I've Just come back from the little old
town
That I proudly left, one day.
When my cheeks were smooth with a
youthful down,
And my troubles were far away,
I used to think that the people there
Wert foolish to he content.
To sit in the doors when the days
were fair.
Not knowing what progress meant.
I used to think of the resting place
As fit for the old alone.
For the weaker ones who had quit
the race
And were willing to be unknown;
I found no hope in its peaceful hade,
No chance In Its empty streets.
Removed from the arteries of trade
Where the pulse of traffic beats.'
I left the little old town behind
To sleep as it long bid slept.
And I Journeyed far in the world to
find where Merit's rewards
were kept.
And often I dreamed of the days to
be
And the wonder that they would
share
O'er the honors the world was to
grant to me
For having emerged from there.
I used to think of the ones who
stayed
With a pity I did not speak;
I thought of them, with their trousers
frayed,
And never a goal to seek;
I wondered why they had never dared
To venture to wider spheres.
And I often thought of the ills they
shared
As they wasted the precious years.
I have Just come back from the little
old town
To hurry and hope and strive,
Where a few are cheered and the
many frown.
And only the strong survive;
'And however I gain or whatever I
lack,
I shall deem that day the best
When finally I may go gladly back
To the little old town to 'rest.
MEMORY.
"I understand that you have a good
memory."
"I have; I pride myself on that."
"Can you remember names and
faces?"
"Distinctly. If ever Im a Introduc
ed to a man I can recall his name
and the circumstances of our meeting
years afterward."
"Can you remember dates?"
"Yes, fairly well."
"Telephone numbers and the size
of the gloves you wear?"
"I have no difficulty with such de
tails." "You must be a wonder. But now
tell me can you always remember to
turn off the electric light in the cel
lar when you fix the furnace for the
night?"
"No!" he. shouted, "I can't I am
only human. "Detroit Free Press.
THE AFTERMATH.
The great ball had been given, and
Mrs. Xoovo was running over the bills
with her husband. When it was found
that they totaled $10,000 Mr. Novo
winced.
"By ginger, Maria!" he ejaculated;
"$10,000 is a pile o'money."
"We have to do it, Silas, to get In
to society," replied Mrs. Noovo.
"Well," said the old man, scratch
ing his head, "Judging from results
it don't seem that we're getting Into
society quite so much as society is
gettin 'into us." Harper's Weekly.
THE REALM FEMININE
Wool embroidery la being Introduc
ed on evening gowns -of chiffon over
satin, as Ve'l as on afternoon, dresses
and waists of crepe da chine, cash
mere and broadcloth.
While crewel wools offer the great
er variety of colors, ordinary German
town wool is used extensively for this
new embroidery.- v
Almost any bold design could be
developed in wools. - Satin-stitch and
out'.inlng as well as chain-stitching
and couching could be used for this
embroidery-
Use a large-eyed crewel needle for
wool embroidery and knot the ends of
thewool when starting a new thread.
When doing plain sewing, try using
the little wire paper clips, which busi
ness men use for holding papers to
gether. Instead of much basting,
place some of these little fasteners on
the seams to hold them until stitched
by the machine.
Toevery five pounds of grapes
take three pounds of . sugar, two
pounds of seeded raisins, and one-half
pound of English ayalnut meats. Sep
arate the pulp from the skins and
cook the pulp until the seeds will
float or separate easily. Remove the
seeds by sifting, add the skins to the
pulp, then add the sugar. Let boll
s'.owly, for twenty minutes, taking
care that it does not burn, then add
the raisins and boil about fifteen or
twenty minutes longer until the Juice
has thickened a little. Add the nut
meats and boil up a minute Seal
while hot. This conserve is pro
nounced delicious by all who taste it.
VOTES FOR WOMEN
' ' Indiana.
Feminine Indiana will assert herself
in a political way with the opening of
The Star's presidential primary for
women. Hundreds of prominent club
women of the state will begin a cam
paign to cause as large a vote as
possible to be registered for the favor
ite presidential candidates of Iidiana
women. Officers of state organiza
tions and women with state-wide rep
utations have organized congressional
districts and counties thoroughly for
the purpose of interesting women In
the primary. Indianapolis Star.

affirmative were Misses Leland, New

A delegation from the Equal Suf

a few days ago. The members pre

In general and ephasized the need of
the ballot for women In municipal
elections. They urged the charter
commissioners not to let slip the
honor of being the first body in Dela

Insert a provision for equal suffrage
in the proposed new ctty charter. Two
