be made to reach an agree
ment as the basis of "practical
legislation" which will super
sede the Adamson law and be
satisfactory to all parties to the
controversy.
This conciliator' spirit is
largely due to the fact that the
trainmen are not content with
the eight hour settlement and
do not relish the strike regula
tion with which congress is dis
posed to supplement it On
the side of the railroads it pro
ceeds from a desire to back out
of the quarrel which they wel
comed last summer and to gain
by adjustment of the wttfe
8nd hour schedule for all em
ployees a decided increase in
freight rates.
With so many manifestations
cf what seems like pure reason,
h is possible that a compre
hensive measure wiser than
that hastily enacted in Septem
ber may be evolved, but one
important consideration must
not be ignored. The Adamson
law and the bills accompany
ing it, not yet acted upon, as
serted the rights of the Ameri
can people in the matters at is
sue. These rights are not now
to be abandoned or compro
mised. The time for that pass
ed away when, in the presence
of a deadlock that menaces
the peace and prosperity of
the country, government was
compelled to assert itself.
Capital and labor are al
wavs to be encouraged when
thev meet on common ground
for the settlement of their dif
ferences. Yet they are to be
watched as closely when they
harmonize in forgetfulness ol
the public as when they quar

1ELD Marshal von Hind
"" enburg, probably the
greatest of Germany's
generals, recently was asked
y a newspaper correspondent
what wer his innermost
thoughts v.l.sn giving orders
that a.eant many thousands of
Ins men must die.
"It is the victory of brains
over heart, of intelligence over
.sentiment and feeling," replied
he Field Marshal with some
thing that seemed like a sigh.
"'We send thousands to death
that tens of thousands may
live. It is not easy, I can as
sure you. We are not callous
or unfeeling. It must be done,
and we still our hearts.
"The good of all and the
rood of the Fatherland are
wbove the individual. The

"himself or herself freely and
nobly. And Germany and her
allies will live and prosper."

(From the Daily East Uregonian,

A committee of three, Messrs
Jackson, Cohen and Sturgis, has been
appointed to confer with the O. R. A
N. Co., with reference to a change in
the time of running the freight train
on the Pendleton branch.
At the regular meeting of the boari
of trade last evening the following of
ficers were elected to serve for the
ensuing year: President, L. Blum:
vice president, Dave Horn; secretary
J. B. Eddy; treasurer, T. F. Rourkc
The latter two were re-elected.

Umatilla had a city election on
Dec. 5. A number of impressive look
ing men had consented to accept thu
offices and had waited, serene in th-i
consciousness of their own worth, for
the voters, male and female, to do
the rest. The votes of the city were
duly cast and counted and the results
were offic!ally proclaimed. Then
Mayor Starcher learned to hi vast
astonishment that he had not been
re-elected unanimously, as he had
been expected to be, but that his wile
had beaten him for the office by a
considerable majority. Not only had
a woman been elected mayor of Uma
tilla but the Umatillans had voted
four women into the city council and
had chosen a woman recorder and a
woman treasurer a clean sweep. The
all-man ticket was mowed' under
A combination of womae voftrs
and railroad employes, it was discov
ered, had swept the city on a plat
form of economy and efficiency. The
women of Uma;illa are saying: "Now
we are going to show the men what a
strictly business and economical ad
ministration is." One bewildered in1
quirer, the husband of a newly elect
ed alderwoman, reports: "From the
best information we are able to ob
tain the women were dissatisfied with
the past administration, claiming Inef-
The women did it in the following
way, according to a male Umatlllan
who has been talking to a correspond
ent of the Portland Journal: "Yon
see, the polls opened at 8 o'clock In
the morning and were to close at 7 in
the evening. Well, the women folk
were busy at home with their daily
duties in the morning and did not get
out to vote till afternoon and it was
about 2 o'clock that the whirlwind
vote getting campaign started, and It
ran like a cyclone till the polls closed
and you know the result."
Here is a peril Indeed. If man
must be efficient In order to main
tain his hold on government he will)
have to wake up. and be quick about
it.
