I should be sorry for myself Jf no one seemed to care at all While watching me attempt to climb, or feared that I might slip or fall; I should not have the heart to try my strength again if I believed That no one would be gladdened by each little triumph I achieved. I should be sorry for myself if no one watched nie jeal ously, Or secretly was glad to see the obstacles confronting me; I should not have the will to dare, my efforts would be few and small. If I could be assured that there were none who wished to see me fall. S. E. Riser. "Wilson KiititliMl To Oregon NuMKrt, The Portland Oregonlan, a big pa 1 e-r with very petty ways at times has made the following attempts to be sar castic at the ex pense of the East Oregonian: "The early days of a beautiful J-'pring saw Oregon in the midst of a stirring primary campaign. There was no great novelty about it, for Oregon is used to elections and the ways and wiles of candidates at all times of year; except that for the first time in history the people of the state Mere to express their preference for candidates for president and vice-j-icsident, democratic and republican The democrats named Dr. Wilson and had votes to spare lots of them to help out the republicans. They were aided and abetted in this more or less laudable enterprise by the democratic newspapers of the state, all of which were violently against Mr. Taft, and fcr Mr. Roosevelt, or Mr. La Follette, or both. But where, oh, where are the Roosevelt democratic newspapers now? Where is the noble pose of disinterested Independence they as sumed? It has yielded, of course, to the intense partisanship they always had. Where once we had a touching display of impartial interest in the general welfare, we now have a gen uine manifestation of party loyalty that purposes to achieve a democratic president. These papers are for "Wil sr.n because he is the democratic no minee; they would have been for any other if he had been chosen at Bal timore. They never were for Roose velt or La Follette; they always were for that policy or that candidate that male most trouble for republicans. Now the mask Is off. These remarks are for the benefit of little papers like the Pendleton Ea.'t Oregonian and the Bedford Mall-Tribune, and some others. They fumer and frothed and foamed be cause Taft did not Indorse the Oregon system. The democratic platform ig nores the Oregon system, initiative, recall and all; anl so will Wilson In his letter of acceptance. But that will make no difference to those Journalistic camel-swollowers." As sarcasm very good, but where in is the point? In what way is this paper and In what way is the Medford Mail-Tribune inconsistent In support ing Woodrow Wilson. While he was it this state a year ago the governor endorsed the Oregon system in every particular save the recall of the Ju diciary. He discussed our system In a most able manner and he was cheered for his candor. When President Taft passed through the state he said nothing about the Oregon pystem. But when he reached New York he took a fling at this state by asserting that people who favor such reforms, as Oregon has enacted are neurotics. He had w.m of his cabinet members go forth and deliver speeches of a similar tenor. As a consistent follower of the pro gressive cause and an advocate of the (iri'rnn system this pin per could not v , ') j ,.f... .. to i- r : ' rt 7!';-If it v Ishod to do so. He Is the only true progressive in tho race. But fortunnto 1 tho East Oregonian wants to sup port Wilson. It endorsed him in the primary campaign and said some things about his chief opponent that J have since been proven true. The only serious nu-naco to the Wilson candidacy in Oregon thus fur is that the esteemed Oregonian has been saying many kind things about him. If it continues to do so many good people may come to think there I:- something wrong with the famous New Jerseyan and it may be neces sary for Governor Wilson to Harvey tee the Portland morning paper. In this particular section of the world good cheer abounds and It should because Pen Vntniulns dleton Elks copped the By the first prize in the big Pound. parade In Portland and the outlook for a bumper wheat crop Is great. But there are other places where all Is not well and one of them Is Texas. It has been discovered by the Corslcana Sun that this season the practice of selling watermelons by weight Is being established. The re port Is to the effect that the Idea Is spreading and it is causing uneasiness among that part of the population that prefers to buy watermelons by the thump and by their looks without reference to anything so mechanical as a pair of scales. It Is pointed out by the Texas pa per that coming Immediately upon the advent of the presidential preference primary the reform in the method of handling melons is too much. We are progressing too fast. Besides the practice of weighing melons will In jure personal pride. It will elimi nate the pride of the dealer or the grower who knows how to match his skill against his customer and sell a melon for ten cents more than It Is worth. It will also put a crimp In the vanity of the shrewd buyer who im agines he skins the dealer. If the government would appropri ate money needed for conducting the legitimate expenses of the presiden tial campaign it would not then be necessary to learn from whence all the boodle came. From all reports it will be some time before Miss Portland entirely forgets the visit of Pendleton lodge No. ' 2SS. now highly respected as leaders In business ns well ns In politics you would find tholr bartered souls In tho pawn-shops of graft, held there on ilepos t, which t hey apparently have not the manhood to redeem. In bus iness these men are universallsts. that is, they are directors In every Institu tion within tho one of their notor iety, and their names are still for rent. I repeat that Mr. Lorlmer is not a bad fellow, and if he Is put out of tho senate, it Is my opinion that a goodly number of that same august body ought to confess like men, hang their heads In shame and walk out voluntarily. But that is not saying that they ought to walk out. I'm not undertaking to defend the methods of Lorimer's election. But I am say ing that the method of his election was Just Uke the common method of most of our political elections. It was the same method by which Roos velt was elected president of the Unit ed States. When we consider that It cost the fabulous sum of $1,900,000 to, elect Roosevelt, it gives us pause In condemning Lorlmer for spending less than $100,000 for the same pur pose. Roosevelt refused to sit at the same banquet with Lorlmer, but if there were any insult in the event of these two men eating together, the insult would be to Mr. Lorlmer. I'll tell you, Mr. Editor, when Roosevelt lost all my respect. He was out rid ing horseback one morning when a young lady, or rathr a mere girl, similarly mounted, rode by him. Ap parently she was in a little more of a hurry than was his majesty, and thinking the road wide enough, inno cently passed him. Whereupon his anger thwarted his self-control and Roosevelt showed himself to be the thing he Is. He whipped up his horse and struck the girl's beast a cruel blow Her horse of course was fright ened and she was thrown to the ground and severely injured. But what did this gallant gentleman (?) do Ho rode right on as If nothing had happened. Lorlmer Is too much of a man to do a thing like that. I know Mr. Lorlmer personally; I know something of his domestic life; and I tell you he Is a kind and lov- I Ing husband and father. His neigh bors and all who know him personal ly will tell you that he Is a gentle man. His personal habits, language, and manners, are clean and refined. He is a sympathetic, tender-hearted, manly man; In business his honor has never been questioned, and his home life was Ideal. FROM THE PEOPLE J DISCISSIOH ROOSEVELT AXI) LOU-IMEK. Editor the East Oregonian: May a minis- . -r discuss p'Uies? That is, if he keeps it out of his pul pit? He may? Is a minister a citi zen, and is he entitlel to rhe frc.ljm i-pee'.h and press un.ler tiie consti tution? He Is?. rhsviki very much. My reason for thes-a Inquiries is that the spendthrift interest in politics of late, together with some unusual maneuvers, gives me a feeling of lo quacity. In fact quietism is Irritating my conscience, and I believe that the only relief is some sort of expression. You see, Mr. Editor, I came from Illinois, the home of Grant, Logan, Lincoln and a and a and Lorl mer. And yet why pronounce his name with hesitancy? Lorlmer is not a bad fellow. The only crime that dis tinguishes Lorlmer from a great many of his fellow politicians is that he did not give a little more money to that mischiefous newspaper man who got ho'd of the electric button and turned on the light. If a similar light were turned on, dispelling the shadows of a great many other lives FACE DBHGUR E WITH CZEMA Covered with Eruption to Back of Ears So They Hardly Knew What He Looked Like. Used Cuticura Soap and Ointment. In 4 Weeks Face Fine and Clean. "Our little boy Gilbert Wail troubled with eczeuia wlit-a but a few weeks old. His little (ace was covered wlthsoresevea to back of hia ears. The poor little fellow Fuffered very much. The wres began as pimples. Ms little face was disfigured very much. Wj hardly knew what he looked like. The face looked like raw meat. We tied little bags of cloth over his hands to prevent tiira from scratching. He waa very restless at night, hia little face itched. "We consulted two doctors at Chicago, where we resided at that time. After trying all the medicine of the two doctors without any result, we read of the Cuticura Remedies, and at once bought the Cuticura Soap and Ointment. Following the directions carefully and promptly we saw the result, and after four weeks, the dear child's face was as fine and clean as any littlo baby 's face. Every one who saw Gilbert after using the Cuticura Remedies was surprised. He has a head of hair which is a pride for any boy of his age, three years. We can only recommend the Cuticura Remedies to every body." (Signed) Mrs. II. Alhrecht, Box 883, West Point, Nh Oct. 2fl, 1910.

SHE GAVE UP ALL HOPE Physicians Failed To Help Mrs. Green, But She Finally Found Relief in Cardul. Meetze, Va. Mrs. J. C. Green of thfs place, says: "I Buffered with womanly troubles bo that I could hardly sit up. Two of the best doctors in our town treated me, and I tried different medi cines, until I gave up all hope of ever getting well. One day, I decided to try Borne Car dul. It did bo much for me that I ordered some more, and It cured me! Today, I feel as well as I ever did In my life. The pains and the trouble are all gone. I feel like another person in every way. I wish every sufferer could know what Cardul will do for sick women." A few doses of Cardul at the right time, will save many a big doctor bill, by preventing serious sickness. It tones up the nervous system, and helps make pale cheeks fresh and rosy. Thousands of weak women have been restored to health and happiness by using Cardul. Suppose you try It It may be Just the medicine you need. N. B. Write to: Ladles' Advisory Drt.. Chatta nooga Medlclnt Co., Chattanooga, Tenn., for Sptciai Initructkm: and 64-rait book.
