Sometimes, amid the tumult
and the throng,
We hear an old, sweet song;
A "broken strain from on we
uned to hear.
Back In some yesteryear:
A melody, borne through the
drifting haie
Of life's forgotten days;
The tumult died around us,
strangely thrilled, . ..
With roar of traffic stilled;
Our eyes are dimmed our
hearts turn back and
then
We dream old dreams again.

"All work and no play makes Jack
a dull boy." So the Athenians have
arranged the Cale
Tlme to May. donian picnic begin
ning tomorrow and
two weeks later the annual Pioneers
Picnic and reunion will be held at
Weston. These events will give all. the
boys and girls, under 92 years of age,
an opportunity to have a good time
and get the proper outlook on life in
general. The world was not created
for the purpose of holding primary
elections nor to see how much money
a man could make .without killing
himself off or getting into jail. It
was intended as a play ground as
much as anything else and the fact
many people lose sight of the truth
does not alter .the case In any way. If
you don't believe it you are na
Scootch.
the intellectual quality of American
life has been below the level of most
of our civilized competitors; below
Russia for example, in spite of her
despotism; below Germany in science,
history, drama, fiction, foreign trade;
below Switzerland and Denmark in
politics and meial progress?
Probably tt Is because we have been
too much interested In wealth, too lit
tle in Ideas and ideals. TVlstol once
observed that Americans seemed to
be occupied with devices for savin
time and then with devices for kill
ing the time they had saved. That
was said a number of years ago. Re
cently we have seen a renaissance In
one direction, and a renaissance In one
direction Is likely to mean a renais
sance in many directions. When a
nation Is aroused with some general
spirit. It often shows It In the by-products
of literature and art. Tou can
trace this truth in Greece, Italy, Hol
land, England. The Vnited States la
now aroused along one line or pro
fessed Importance. ' It is trying to
make its life more just, more kind, we
may say more Christian, It is em
bittered against the lay mind, which
is In Us origin the mind of the per
son who has a special advantage and
fears to lose It. We are ceasing to
confine our spiritual remarks to an
hour on Sunday morning. We are be
ginning to see a little actual sense
In talk about brotherhood. We are
beginning to try to apply It a little
The change shows in our politics. It
I is the basis of the most notable legis
lation of today. It stirs business men
It Is leading the clergy to throw their
churches open to the arguments of
the dissatisfied. It is trying to per
suade even lawyers and judges to re
consider the procedure they have built
up and the phrases of which they
have been the slaves. It is leading us
to examine our schools and colleges
and try to bring it about that they do
more to fit the average boy and the
average girl for the duties of the aver
age life.
Every time must have a gospel, if
it is to be a noble, productive time.
We are developing the Gospel .of Dem
ocracy. Democracy does not mean
playing on the weaker souls of the
multitude. It means getting at the
underlying needs and thoughts of the
multitude. It means constitutionally
interpreting the multitude. Our coun
try is now watching a contest between
the love of money, of luxury, of special
advantage, on the one hand; and hu
manity, light, and truth, on the other,
We will be a Just country if this con
test reaches a white heat of faith
This will be a great country- If we
live up to the phrases which we all
use; If what we think we also dare.

SOXGS OF NIGHT
The moon swings low In the
above.
And the twinkling stars shine
bright
And a mother sings to her baby love.
Those wonderful songs of night;
Those wonderful songs of sugar plum
trees, . '
And fields where the fairies play.
Of cockle-shell boats on golden seas
That never are seen by day
It is by-low time and she sweetly
hums
Those wqnderful songs of night;
Of the blare of trumpets and sounds
of drums
When the little tin soldiers fight;
She sings of a comical candy dog -
And the gingerbread man who
stands
By the side of a blinking crooky frog,
Without any arms or hands.
And the moonbeams dance on the
parlor floor, i
And a ship sets out at sea. ,
And a baby Balls for the golden shore
In search of the sugar plum tree;
She's off to the cave of the Teddy
Bear,
And the haunts of the fairies kind
No thoughts of tomorrow's worries
Shall trouble her baby mind.
Oh, sweet is the smile on the baby
face
And if ever a song can reach the
skies.
The angels must find delight
In hearing a mother's lullabies
Those wonderful songs of night.

that members of thei militia should
be used for the protection of girls
against such establishments. In Col
orado there is no such sentimental
ism. There the" militia is used to
shoot down the wives and children of
striking miners In cold blood. It is
used to slaughter women, not to pro
tect them. There Is no "maudlin sen
timent" in Colorado like there is in
Oregon. How our tories must like
Colorado. The surprising thing is
that they do not all go to that state
to "live.

he found a river with real banks and

; "Our own sympathies are with the
Colonel, and as a geographer he has
the fullest measure of our confi
dence." says the World. "We are
still convinced that everything will
work out all right when the Colonel
has a chance to state his case In full
and amwer his critics. Even If It
should be proved that somebody else
found the river first and explored 11
long before the Colonel got bolls arid
lost his dog, It will remain the only
river ever discovered by a third-term
candidate for president of the United
Mates ho had been robbed of a nom

FROM THE PEOPLE
A SUGGESTION
Petlleton, Oregon, May 12, 1914.
To The East Oregonlan:
Provided that the O.-W. Railway
& Navigation company place the di
vision where talked of ' immediately
west of the state property, what Is
the matter of the city taking up the
matter of an inter-urban electric car
line from the city to the point where
the principal shops are to be located?
A proposition of this kind could
tettainly be taken up by the city and
made to pay a very large dividend to
the city. I think It could be Installed
for, at the most, about 820.000 per
mile, including all equipment
This would mean about 880,000 fJ
the line from Main street to the prin
cipal place, this side of Pilot Rock
Junction. The line might have to be
evtf-T.rle.i to the east and west of
rendleton In order to get cheaper
building sites for people who coti'd
T,nt afford to buy more expensive
