Over th farm lands, plowed and Konn, Our men go tramping off to war; Who will reap, when the grain is grown? Why we; We've reaped be fore.: Reaped? Why. yes; see, our hands are worn. Our backs are bent, our faces dull;. Our men. you see. are bound ere born, To keep the armies full. So, water the stock and till the land; Feed the children our men begot; Wait for the time-expired band. That is the women's lot. But now the dread we always know Has sickened all the land with fear; The young, the strong, the old mart go Ruin and death draws near. Our lands are stripped of all our men; The war kings call the con scripts out; What for? God knows; not we. But then. Who are we. to doubt? Blood will stain all our rivers brown. Red flames will leap across the land; , Pillage will waste our thin crops down All at the king's command. Our driven men, with last ca ress Go tramping off to war. For what? ' Their children will be father- That is the peasants' lot Gerald B. Breitigam. too meritorious to suit some people and will be too effective in reducing freight rates. Oregon has adopted some good re formatory Ua but it has not yet secured a cor rupt practice act for law yers. Such a law is needed and it would do considerable to safesnard the in itiative and referendum. Just now there is discussion over the t Id el a mis bill that has been placed on the ballot persistently opposing the measure. It it a common thing for a certain class of lawyers to do such work when special interests are affected by leg islative proposals. They should have to state under oath who has retained them or what clients are Interested in the subject at issue. A newspaper is forbidden by law, both state and national, to publish arguments for hire without plainly labelling such matter as advertising. It is a splendid law. It is a protection to the public and no honest newspaper objects to that law. There should be a similar law for lawyers. The participation by paid lawyers In political discussion is an evil the public should not have to en dure without knowing it. Let them hang out their signs.

IT'S PRICE I When you darken your hair with Sage Tea and Sulphur, no "one can tell, because it's done so naturally, so evenly. Preparing this mixture, though, at home is mussy and trou blesome. For 50 cents you can buy at any drug store the ready-to-use tonic called "Wyeth's Sage and Sul phur Compound." You Just damped a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. By morn ing all gray hair disappears, and, aft er another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully darkened, glossy and luxuriant. You will also discover dandruff Is gone and hair has stopped falling. Gray, faded hair, though no dis grace, is a sign of old age, and as we all desire a youthful and attractive appearance, get busy at once with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur and look years younger. The appeal of the accommodations committee to those who will house and feed Round-up vis Cat Oat U Itors is something that IltirjrUrT. should be heeded. Vis itors to the Round-up are always willing to pay fair prices for accommodations. But it Is hu man nature to resent a hold-up. The average person would rather spend tlO for a legitimate need than to be swindled out of one dollar. Because business may be unusually good is no reason why burglarous prices should be imposed. Nor does it offer any ex cuse for poor service. Treat the vis itors well and be reasonable in the matter of prices. It means consider able to Pendleton and to future at tendance at the Uound-up for us to maintain a good reputation al'jng this line. Because of the necessity fr econ omy arUing out of the war congress has already reduced the llrcaukc It river and harbor bill Is Wfirthy. from fifty to thirty mil lions. Yet the filibuster Continues. Two standpat senators fropose to talk the bill to death. Un der the rules of the senate they can do that If they want to proveded they have the endurance to continue talk ing. It Is a dlwsrace that our river and harbor work should be thus at th mercy of such senatorial brigandage. There Is no sincerity In the claim that the bill Is opposed because the ap propriations are too large. Had that claim been true the twenty million cut would have silenced all objection. Thirty millions is not much momy for the I'nlted Elates to spend annu ally on river and harbor Improve ments: It Is not a large sum when consideration Is given the fact that the farmers of the Columbia busln can sain a million a year by having navi gation open on the Columbia, It Is iot much to pay when the effect of liver and harbor work la to cut freight chargrs la half and sometimes to do better than that. The river and harbor bill Is not op !od because It Is unworthy In any respect. It Is opposed because it Is (From the Journal.) -Was there ever such Joy before? Is there anything in the Oregonlan office that ex-Senator Bourne cannot have? Walk right in. Jonathan, and help yourself to anything in sight.! and if there is anything that you don't j see, ask for it Never was everything so lovely, and never did the goose hang so high. Sweet and lovingly, even as a moth er contemplates her precious son does the Oregonlan feast its eyes and shower Its kisses upon Jonathan. It smiles. It exuberates. It fe licitates. It is supremely gay. It flirts with Mm. It giggles. Figura tively speaking, its arms are around Jonathan, and it weeps upon his bos om. Yet it is so sudden. It Is such flustering change, because Jonathan is still the same old Jonathan. He is the same old boy the Oregonlan said was in a corrupt Bourne-Chamber-laln-West machine. He is the same old lad that the Oregonlan has often accused of most of the political crimes on the calendar. That New Soap NYAL'S Face Cream SOAP 'iiiiiiiiiiiiuiiiiuiiiiiiriiiiiiiiiiiiiir For Sale Koeppen's The Drug Store That Serves You Best FIRST LESSON IN PRACTICAL POLITICS Now, children, if you will please ask no embarassing questions, I'll tell you all about why this prohi bition agitation was first staited by the Anti-Saloon League. First of all 1 want you to know that we "prohis" who have come from the East to Oregon with this agitation are mostly Jobless Preachers who have failed to make good or make Money in the pul pit. There are more and more of us, each year who are losing our Jobs in the pulpit, and, you see children, we Will want the Money. We're a pretty big army now. So we Jobless Preachers began getting together and finally band ed ourselves into a little secret or ganization to tap a few Millionaires who were looking for more State ' Legislatures in order that they might get a better grip on the People. We decided that Pittsburgh had about the most Millionaires to the square mile of any city In the na tion, so we unanimously elected the Pittsburg Millionaires to our membership as Brother Philan thropists. Of course, we agreed that we would gradually extend and maybe later take in Wall Street, too. The Pittsburgh Millolnaires fell into our Scheme with open arms. They had played Politics through every Old Party until they had been badly smoked out and here we brought them a new idea. They saw that a True Temperance sen timent was growing rapidly in the country and by organizing what we called the Anti-Saloon League they could sneak into a state and cap ture the Legislature by fooling the People with the story that we were working for True Temper ance. The Millonalres could con trol the Legislature, you see, and we Jobless Preachers could get on to the Payroll that we were after. You see there are 18 states where they want control of the legisla ture, so we Jobless Preachers could all be kept at work the year around at agitating, and at really better pay than we had got In the pulpit. We decided to take In the W. C. T. U. and the poor old helpless Pro hibition Party, and steal their slo gans of "Prohibition" and "Tem perance." We could go into every city and town In any state, you see, by this arrangement, and get Free halls and Free churches and even Live at some good brother's or sister's home while we spread our Agitation. We could save our Hoard Bills this way, you see, and have more Money for ourselves. The Millionaires already had a regular Political Department, with Smart Lawyers to tell the "work ers" Just what to do, so we only had to know what states had been, selected by them In which we Job less Preachers were to Work. We started off with a "big hur rah meeting" In Pittsburgh. 'We Jobless Preachers furnished the Kmotlonal Stuff about "Am I My Brother's Keeper," you see chil dren. Of course, we ''soft-pedaled" on "Should my brother be my keeper." We put a lot of Hysteria Into It, because we wnnt ed Jobs, while a few Big Coal Op erators and Steel Mill Millionaires pointed out how much more Money they would be able to make If the People would only vote for their Brand of prohibition. They ex plained that they didn't want the Money, of course, but were seek ing Higher Efficiency for Work ingmen. I never laughed so loud In my life as I did after that meet ing was over, and I went over to the Millionaires' Club that night to Our Banquet. You see, that those Pittsburgh Millionaires have never tried to vote their own town "dry" and some of .them got pret ty drunk that night before It wa all over. They gave us Jobless Preachers all the champagne we could drink, too. Then the Millionaires' Political Department got busy. They got out the Map and began figuring out the states where they needed a better Grip on the legislatures I hope It isn't necensary for me t tell. you. children, that they own a lot of the legislature in the Uni ted States now. Of course, th Political Department doesn't tell us much about Those Things, though. All we are expected to know is how to Agitate. Now, children, you may go home. Our next lesson will be a really bigger Joke than the one today. Johnny Pussyfoot, you might tell your good ftther that I will be over to dinner tonight and prob ably will stay all night. And ask him to arrange to have me preach somewhere next Sunday. The con gregation won't know but what I as as sincere as their own preacher.
