OKB YOUTH'S XXrUKIKNCK.
It is told of the late Mr. Corbett
that when as n youth of less than
20 he left his home in interior New
York and went down to the city to
Mxk his fortune, the time was one
of universal business depression.
He knew what he wanted" employ
ment in a wholesale store, where
by energy and deration he might
.have opportunity to commend him
self and so get on in the world. He
applied everywhere for work, only
to learn that it was n time when no
new men were being taken on,
when on the other hand men were
being dropped. It was a discour
aging situation, but Mr. Corbett
declined to accept defeat. He had
come to the city to find work and a
. career, and there was no thought of
failure in his mind.
As time wore on and he could
find nothing by the usual methods
of approach, he conceived the idea
of making application to every'
store on the then chief wholesale
street. Taking one store after the
other, he went at it, but was every
' where turned away. At last he
told those to whom he applied that
to find work he was determined;
that he would gladly work without
pay until such time as his efforts
would be clearly worth paying for;
.and in admiration of his purpose
and of his persistence in it, he was
permitted to take hold literally
take hold, for his duties were of the
coarsest and hardest on these
terms. At the end of the first
month it was decided by the head
of the establishment to give him a
.moderate wage; the next month
his wages were doubled; in a year
he was earning a fine salary; in 3
years he was among the best-paid
men of his class and rank in the
city. At the end of six or seven
years he had saved a little capital,
and, what was far more important,
he had established a credit with his
firm by which he was enabled to
buy and bring to the then far-away
Oregoti the stock of merchandise
which became the material founda
tion of his business operations here.
These incidents are worth recit
ing because they emphasize a gen
eral truth which every generation
needs to learn, namely, that habits
of industry, with a fixed purpose,
courage and persistence, will unfail
ingly command success. Times
and conditions change, but through
all there remains this general assur
ance that a strong, determined,
diligent and honest youth will as
suredly find a way in the world.
Success has no condition or season
for its own; it is more often won
under adverse conditions than under
conditions which arc called fortu
nate. Temperament, character and
a manly will, rather than inherit
ances, friends or fortunate condi
tions, make the successful man.

Among the many other resources
of this neighborhood is n peculiar
rock formation. It underlies nearly
the whole upper Deschutes valley,
in fact, is the bedrock of the river
over almost the1 whole distance from
the lakes to Tetherow's bridge, and
is many feet in thickness. This
rock should and will not be over
looked in the building of the city of
Hcud on account of its many
peculiarities and diversified adapt
abilities; and we venture the asser
tion that in five years it will be a
marketable commodity in the neigh
borhood us n building stone, the
quarrying of which will require the
time and labor of hundreds of men.
Geology gives no account of this
stone, which has the characteristics
of both sedimentary and volcanic
rocks. The Century for March
gives it the name of Sillar; and de
scribes it as being "light gray vol
canic rock, cuts like putty, and can
be painted any color. Resembles
marble at a distance", etc. If our
rock is not sillar, it is something
closely akin to it. Upon breaking
up n piece, freshly taken from the
ground, it cuts like refined chalk
and indeed resembles chalk in its
uoucohcrcncc of particles. After
two days' exposure to the atmos
phere, however, it becomes hard s
basalt, and on this account alone is
a valuable building stone.
When fresh it can be whittled
into all sorts of fantastic shapes,
such us statues of men, birds und
animals, with great ease, and the
making of huge bricks of the stuff
is a future industry' of this neigh
borhood. The inhabitants of the
valley early discovered the mani
fold uses of "sillar", as they have
in Arizona and New Mexico, and
almost every house in the country'
has a fireplace made of it, and flues
are largely composed of it. A com
modity of this kind is not likely to
be overlooked for any length of
time.
Besides being very light (specific
gravity 1. 10) it possesses the further
advantage of occurring in blanket
form of great thickness, thus insur
ing great tensile strength after
hardening as well as uniformity in
softness when fresh. Surely, what
more can be wished for in a locality
that is rich in water power, timber,
agriculture and building stone that
anybody can cut without calling in
a stone mason?
and Oatch of Marlon, to Hay noth
ing of the other numerous and as
piring candidates, say that they can
control enough of the delegates to
place Dinger among the "also rmw."
Dinger Hermann's official record is
not otic to justify any great amount
of public confidence. His career In
the hulls of congress was not as
clean and bright as it tdiould have
been, and the people of the first dis
trict do not ioiut with pride to the
work of Hermann as we of the sec
ond do to that of our retiring repre
sentative, Malcolm' A. Moody. Her
mann's official (Kith as commissipn
cr of the general land office is trace
able front the time he was installed
until he was unceremoniously kick
ed out by very plain evidence of
graft, malfeasance und mismanage
ment, and the fact that the presi
dent planted his shapely official
boot in the region of Dinger's coat-
tails, and the knowledge that his
influence with the Roosevelt ad
ministration is nil should be a very
good reason for his expulsion to the
tall timber, where he can pass the
remainder of his days writing u his
tory of his official life, entitled
"Looking Backward," or "He who
promises and runs away may live
to promise another day." Our
friend of the Silver Lake Bulletin,
having sized up the situation by
look ing through the big end of the
telescope and picking out Dinger as
a winner, also having his usual nat
ural desire to play on the safe side,
is strenuously slinging ink and
causing the welkin to ring in praise
of Hermann the Great. We arc
resting easy, however, in the belief
that his very short residence in
Lake will counterbalance whatever
effect his words of wisdom may
have. He fccLs, however, that two
congressional crutches upon which
he can lean are better than one, and
of course he cannot be blamed for
that.

A pupil in a village school who
had been requested to write an es
say on the human body handed in
the following: "The human body
consists of the head, thorax, abdo
men, and legs. The head contains
the brains in case there are any.
The thorax contains the heart and
lungs, also the liver and lights.
The abdomen contains the bowels,
of which there are five a, e, i, o,
u, and sometimes w and y. The
Superintendent L. D. Wiest re
cently gave notice to the Oregon
Irrigation Company's men at work
a mile north of here on the ditch
right-of-way that was claimed by
their company to move, stating that
they were trespassing on the Pilot
Dutte Company's right-of-way, and
that each man would be held per
sonally responsible for any damage
done in following his superiors' or
ders. In compliance with this no
tice the O. I. Co.'s men have aban
doned their ditch right-of-way at
that point as well as at Lava. This
means that at last the O. I. Co. has
listened to the harsh voice of Secre
tary Hitchcock commanding them
to keep off the grass, and that the
Pilot Butte Development Company
will not be again harassed by petty
lawsuits instituted in a mongrel
spirit simply to delay development
work.
The fight for the late Hon. Thos.
H. Tongue's place in congress
waxes warm in the first district.

The president iu his speech at
Minneapolis on Saturday among
other thing uttered the following:
"No change in the tariff duties
can have any substantial effect in
solving the so-called trust problem."
This is to our notion a sound
view of the question, and a note of
warning &. well. Doth are well
taken.
It means that the trusts can
flourish and fix the prices of their
various commodities to suit them
selves, regardless of whether the
said commodities are manufactured
under a high tariff, a low tariff, or
no tariff. It is virtually an admis
sion and the president knows what
he is talking about that our chief
executive feels his helplessness, his
insufficiency to deal witji the trusts.
As they arc prospering and waxing
fat under a protective tariff, and
cannot be subdued or even con
trolled with a change in the tariff,
what is the remedy, or political nar
cotic by which they may be made
drowsy and pliant?
, In our opinion there is none.
They will naturally outlive their
usefulness. They resemble the hu
man body in that they contain the
germs of senility and disease which
will eventually cause their own de
struction. They must have their
birth, youth, maturity, decline and
death; decay within themselves
will cause their own death, and dis
integration will follow as a natural
result. To be sure; an incalculable
harm may be done the present gen
eration, but the next Will probably
be free from this "old man of the
sea" which is fastened upon our
shoulders at present. Nature's
laws are inflexible and changeless,
and while the old dame is occasion
ally tardy in collecting, she always
exacts in the cud full remuneration
for debts.
