Like two ripe lips of a maid en sweet Should the Taft men In order to defeat Roosevelt turn their strength to Root they might succeed In nomi nating him but in the general election he would not run as well as vould Taft. With Roosevelt and Root tooth running as republican candidates the republican vote would go mainly to the colonel. Senator Root is a very able man, one of the strongest In the senate. But like some other strong men of that body, many of whom have recently retired, he is more in sym pathy with the patricians than with the plebians of the country. He was for years a oorporation lawyer and has been used to regarding the wel fare of the wealthy classes as mean- l ing the welfare of the nation. The people are not looking for that sort of a man for the presidency. LOTS OP BUILDING. For a "quiet" town Pendleton Is doing a satisfactory amount of build ing work this summer.

Editor East Oregonian: The action of the Farmers Union at-their meeting in Spokane in ask ing that the machinery of the canal tome be brought to the Colombia riv er to clear the river was certainly to be commended by atl residents of the northwest. It is also conclusive evidence of tlie progressive spirit of the Pendleton Commercial club that they were the first to endorse the movement that probably means more to the producing class than all the legislation that wUl be effected in the next ten years. This move is not only progressive but sacrificing on the part of the club as they will only be indirectly benefited, the direct benefits will accrue to the farmers and stockmen of the Inland Empire and it Is to be hoped that every man who hopes to call himself progressive in either of the above callings will make it a point to attend the meeting on the nth when the commercial club has so generously arranged to have present undisputed authority on the subject of open rhrer to the sea. Of course this is a busy time but then al ltimes are busy to the progressive farmer and then what isit to raise large crops and then spend, as we now do, 54 per cent of its value In getting It on to the consumers' table? We should be lust fit mnri In distributing as in production and until the producer barns to watch both ends of the business the art of husbandry will remain far from the coveted goal of perfection and the real profits will In a great measure find their way into the pockets of the men that do not work, neither do they invest. Cheap transportation is one of the corner stones to scientific distribution, scientific distribution means more for the producer and less for the consumer to pay. So let us all meet In Pendleten on the 14th wear ing on our faces (if not on our coats) the batt!e smile of Open River to the Sea. C. C. CONNER. BETTER THAN BULLETS. A sharp conflict is on between the old time method of prison manage ment and the new, being brought to a heal by the riot at San Quinton Sunday. The warden at San Quin ton says Governor West and his pris on ideas are to blame for the trouble among the California prisoners. Gov ernor West replies that his system of prison management works well in this state and that California author ities should use more brains and few er bullets. The results attained at Salem and San Quinton respectively indicate our governor has good reason for his re tort. Though the honor policy insti tuted by Governor West was bitterly and often unjustly assailed at first It has proven a success. Under the new system the men have been handled with greater ease and at less expense than before. There have been few-er escapes than formerly. The men have done more work and they have lived under more wholesome conditions. It has been good for the prisoners and good for the state because the men when finally liberated have not been imblttered toward society. Most hon or men want to make good to vindi cate the system if for no other reason. Already there have been many strik ing examples of the efficiency of the honor system. The honor system when Intelligently used simply means taking proper note of human nature. As a rule men can be led when they cannot be driv en. They can be Induced to do a thing when It would be impossible to fcrce them to do it. An appeal to the good sentiments within another will often accomplish wonders. "Ee noble and the nobleness that lies in other men, sl"epin but never dead, will rise in majesty to meet thine own." This trait of human nature Is beautifully and truthfully shown in Jerome K. Jerome's symbolic play, "The Passing of the Third Floor Back," recently given on the Pacific coast by Mr. J. Forbes Robertson, the English actor. In the play a sor did, selfish household Is transformed into a courteous, happy, unselfish group by the simple work of a stran ger who arrives upon the scene and seeing their plight skillfully strikes a silent chord in the heart of each and thereby works a change that seems magical. It is not always true, but as a gen eral rule, quiet, earnest instruction and advice will accomplish more than will loud and insulting commands. This Is true whether a man be In charge of a section gang, is manager of a baseball team, or fills any other position wherein he has control of men. There is no reason why the same principle should not apply to prison management That It does ap Tdy has been demonstrated by Gov-, crnor West and those who have work- The death of a congressman under neath the wheels of a train in Wash ington indicates that the privileges of the house do not mean anything up on the track.

I too behoM the day and know it fair; I have lain silent where the noon tide's spell. Woven of leaves and waters and soft air, Gives the hushed solitude a peace to keep; Where gathered hues and fragrances compel The willing soul along the ways of sleep. I too exult when through a swirl of cloud The flaming sun thrusts forward like a shield Whereunder all the hosts of storm are bowed, And the last cohorts of the smitten rain Flee down the wide horizons, till the field Of hard-won sky be left without a stain. Tet sweeter than all these the little space Of slowly mounting twilight, ere the night's Dominion is accomplished, and her face Shadows the earth with calm; most to me A dying flush of sunset, and veiled lights Of amusing stars above a soundless see.
