CAN’T BE DONE
Back of ninety-nine out of one
hundred assertions that a thing can-
not be done is nothing but the un-
willingness to do it.
In a great many instances the un-
willingness is based on nothing but
laziness.
That new way would mean a little
more work for a time and so It is
opposed.
The theory may be all right, but
the thing isn't practicle, they say,
forgetting that the only test of prac
ticality is the test by actually trying
to do it.
What a different world this would
be if more new suggestions were met
with, "That sounds good, let’s try
it.”
Of course, sooner or later the bet
ter way comes about. The assertion
that a thing can’t be done only im
pedes the irresolute, but the same
Idea Is Bure to occur to a man of will
and then it is carried out.
Every successful man and most
successful businesses have succeeded
by doing things that people said
couldn’t be done.
Which only
amounts, after all, to saying that
success rests largely upon energy.—

In the future the Herald will go
to press on Thursday afternoon in
stead of Friday afternoon. This
change is made for the benefit of
those living in the country who have
been receiving their paper Saturday
evening.
By publishing Thursday
the Herald will be delivered Friday
and the country people as well as the
advertisers will get much better ser
vice.
H. H. COREY
Public Service Commissioner From
Eastern Oregon District Asks ■
For A Second Term
“One good term deserves another.
Mr. Corey has established a splendid
record for efficiency, and we expect
he will be re-nominated by the same
big vote he received in 1916.”—Jef
ferson County Record.
His record Is endorsed generally
by the press of the state. Following
are only a few of unsolicited testi
monials:
“Mr. Corey has had four years
actual experience in solving the
problems of public utility regula
tion, which should fully qualify him
for the office.”—The Timberman.
"The fact that the press through-
out the state has approved Corey’s
work should count much for him in
his campaign.”—The Oregon Voter.
“He was a volunteer during the
Spanish-American war and did not
claim exemption during the great
World war."—Baker Herald.
“Mr. Corey has campaigned In and
out of season for the Eastern Oregon
contention that a rigid ‘long-and
short-haul’ clause should be enacted
by congress.”—Oregon Voter.
“We are glad to note that Eastern
Oregon towns which- are in the back
haul territory have such an able rep
resentative as Mr. Corey upon the
commission, and we appreciate the
action he has taken in waking up
Eastern Oregon newspapers and com
mercial clubs and representatives in
the legislature to the importance of
making our long and short haul leg
islation a live issue.” J. P. Shaugh
nessy, President of the International
Rate Ass’n., Washington, D. C,
“H. H. Corey is acknowledged to
be one of the most efficient officials
In the State House.”—Oregonian.
“Mr. Corey is conceded to be one
of the most efficient and most com
petent officials in the state’s service
at this time.”—Oregon Journal.
Without idle promises or empty
pledge, he stands squarely upon his
record in public office, and will be
very grateful for your Influence and
your bote.—Pd. Adv.

AN INDUCEMENT TO VOTE

for Kansas City and Jackson county
voters, as follows:
A busy man was Jason Briggs; he
had no time to vote; he spent his
time at weaning pigs and building
tanks and other. rigs to keep hie
ducks afloat. I found him poking
