Under the new tariff now on final passage in congress there Is no spe cific duty on grain bags and the ad valorum duty is reduced from 15 to 10 per cent. This is the way in which the new tariff "injures" the wheatgrowers of Umatilla county and of the northwest. It injures them by making a heavy reduction ln the duty on grain bags thereby providing the farmers with cheaper wheat sacks.

It is very book contract for , q aousing cnamoeriain ana .uane wnen schools. those men are logically entitled to praise. It Is trying to palm off a lie upon its readers. It would have them believe the new tariff imposes a great Injustice on wheatraisers when in stead the new bill reduces the adva lorum duty on grain bags from 15 to 10 per cent and strikes out the spe cific duty entirely, thereby conferring a decided benefit upon farmers. If the fact he assisted in reducing the duty on grain bags places Sena tor Chamberlain ln a dilemma it Is an enviable dilemma. The senator Is al so to be envied for the manner in which the Oregonlan fights him. When a newspaper must resort to chicanery to injure a public man Is unconsci ously pays that man a great compli ment which in this day and age voters should have sense enough to discern. Is It a fact that the single woman has better business ability than the married woman and is it Women In true that of all women Business. the widow is most unre liable in business? It would seem to be that such is' the case in England at least. There is an official report which gives the follow ing facts: Of 390 women traders who failed in business in London during the last year, 155 were widows, 151 married and 81 single. But the average am ount of liabilities of the three classes varied greatly. With fewer than twice as many failures the widows had more than three times the debts of the single women. The married wom en's obligations were two and a half times that of those who never know a husband. On the face of this report the single woman has the best of the showing unless It be that a failure with heavy liabilities Is a badge of success In which case the widow would excel. O here's to Umatilla! Of harvest lands the Queen. Here's to her flocks and herds. Her fruit with its rosy sheen. Here's to the sons of toll! That garner her golden store. And make the land of plenty. That laughs from her open door. Beyond the line of misty blue She lies like the promised land And glvea you a western welcome. An open western hand. O. you who fight for fortune And turn to the setting sun. Seek fair Umatilla And find the battle won. For fortune smiles in her green fields, And follows her herds and flocks, She sits In her sunny fruit lands And wreaths her golden locks. So here's to Umatilla, Of harvest lands the Queen. Here's to her flocks and herds, Her fruit with its rosy sheen; Here's to the sons of toil. That garner her golden store. Come, enter this land of plenty. Come In at the open door. Contributed. CTKIOC8 BITS OF mSTORT. Modern table manners compare fa vorably with those of the past, Mrs. Hannah Woolley, author of "The Gen tlewoman's Companion," the stand ard seventeenth century book on eti quette, found it necessary thus to warn her readers: "Gentlewomen, discover not by any ravenous gesture your anfrry appetite, nor fix your j eyes too greedily on the meat before i yr u, as if you would devour more that J way than your throat would swallow.

Close show is a plain Infringement on the Round-up and in Trying to Spoil view of the proxlm TIic Game. lty of Walla Walla to Pendleton and the previous friendly relations between the towns Is Inexcusable. Walla Walla lias shown a poor spirit ln this case and it Is a fair Inference that those in charge of affairs over there are men of small calibre or they would have acted differently, From a Round-up standpoint the worst feature about the Walld. Walla show and other Imitation performanc es Is that they discredit the game. None of the numerous shows held from Winnipeg to Los Angeles have been up to the standard. They have all been money making affairs and usually have sought to take much and give lltle though a conspicuous excep tion seems to be shown at Ontario, Oregon. If these secondary shows are con tinued long enough the Inevitable ef fect will be to "queer" the whole thing. People will see them and be ing misled into believing each and every one la "like the Pendleton Round-up" they will fail to come to the Round-up. Th fact the Thurs day Round-up crowd this year was small may be charged chiefly to the fact almost every other town in the country had been having a frontier show of Its own.
