John d. Rockefeller vent to
church last Sunday. He would
not have done so, it is announced, if
it had not rained. He listened to
a sermon, in which the idea was sd-
vanced that it is time for the CON
solidation Of all the cree1s. After
the services the Standard Oil man
said to the minister: Excuse me,
but when we first began work in the
consolidation Of the competitive
system, a man said, Yon cannot do
it; it can't be done. We said, 1T
can be done. 1T must be done. 1t

the point on which he should bel
more explicit is, the Gone great end. Y
In Rockefcller's business the one

From this some conclude that his

is that there should be one

AFTER THE HORSE is STOLEN.

New Orleans is now cleaning up,
that a yellow fever epidemic is upon
her
She follows the lazy, laggard, in
different custom of too many Ameri-
can towns and cities of locking the
stable after the horse is stolen. Be-
fore an epidemic, and not after it ar
rives, is always the time to clean up.
1t will do precious little good now
to sluice out the cutters and fumigate
the sinking cess-pools and garbage
piles. The fever has already fastened
its talons in her vitals and all her
frantic efforts to clean up now will
be of little avail
If she would prepare for disease in
time of health, by maintaining a per-
feet system of public and private sam
itation, by keeping clean cutters and
aromatic back yards. by making city
ordinances to enforce cleanliness
among the negro quarters on the levee
and in the ghetto and on the foul
river banks, she would not be a stand
ing invitation to the yellow jack,
as she is.

HAVE NOT YET BEGUN TO FIGHT

rs that fellow never going to let
up?" asked one saloon man of an
other yesterday. referring to the
campaign of the East Oregonian for
better morals and more rigid regula-
tion of the liquor traffic in Pendleton.
The East Oregonian has not yet be-
gun its fight for better morals.
1t will never let up as long as 16-
year-old boys are seen drunk on the
streets of Pendleton every day; not as
long as drunken men are. robbed by
hired thugs who frequent Pendleton
dives; nor as long as boxes are main
tanned for the ruination of boys who
do not dare to venture into a front
door.
Some people think it requires a
crank to ask for the enforcement of
law. All this is wrong. What are
laws for if not to be enforced? What
are legislators paid for II not to regu
late society? And If you spurn one
of the laws made by the legislature,
why not cast them all aside? If one
Is not to be enforced why enforce any
of them?
This is the plain logic of the mat
ter. The East Oregonian respects the
law and believes it is the sacred guide
of society. If it is set aside by any
and everybody who does not like it,
what will be the condition of society
And if cowardly officials refuse to en-
force the law because tney, person.
ally. do not agree with them, what
should be the fate of such officials?
The people should remove them from
office without ceremony.
As long as there is a dive in Pen
dleton which openly defies the laws
which have been made for the regu-
Iation Of society, just so long will the
East Oregonian continue its demand
for better morals. It all depends on
the law-breaker how long the fight
will continue. Public sentiment can
be changed in time, by agitation, and
that is what will be done in this city
and county. The saloons will be edu-
Gated out Of existence II they do not
conform to the laws.

WILLIANISON'S MISTAKE.

While no one has a right to ques-
ton the honesty of a juror in his .es-
innate of the evidence in a case, yet
vague circumstances show that the
Jury in the first Williamson trial was
hung by member of the willamette
valley land-stealing gang.
Now that the second trial is on,
Congressman Williamson has made a
bad mistake. if he is responsible for
the disappearance of his nephew, who
is a witness in the case.
If Williamson is not guilty let him
face the trial like a man. If he is
the victim of political intrigue, as he
asserts, let him deal fairly and above
board. That is the only way in which
he can secure and hold the confidence
of the people.
The absence of his own nephew
whose testimony was damaging to
Williamson, convicts Williamson in
the minds of observant people,
whether the nephew returns to testi-
fy or not in the second trial.

TAKE THE CHILDREN.

The Lewis and Clark fair is the op-
portunity of lifetime for many chill
dren of the Northwest states to see
an exposition and every parent who
attends the fair should take the chill
dren along to give them the benefit
of this opportunity.
1t will be an education worth more
than months in school and it will per-
haps not come to your doors again
for years.
The government exhibit is worth a
weeks visit alone, and it will be a
misfortune if every child over 10
years of age in the Northwest does
not see this one collection of govern
ment appliances and educational feat
ures.
Children i'm Portland and in that
vicinity will see 1t, but the children of
the interior counties and isolated
places in the Northwest will be left
at home in too many instances. 1t is
a misfortune and an injustice to the
children that they were not taken
from the outside counties in greater
numbers.

sBERIA's BLOODY STORY.

Japan has captured the capital Of
Saghalien, Siberia's cruel penal colo
ny, to which innocent men and wom-
en- have been marched across count
less miles Of snow and ice, many Of
them dying by the frozen roadside
and others knouted into insanity be-
cause they could carry their chains
no farther.
If only Japan could tell to the world
the hidden story of that bloody and
revolving charnel house maintained
for hundreds Of years by Russia, 1t
would awaken the world to the deep
damnation" of the Russian system
and cause an international indigna-
ton which would say: Blot out her
name and memory from mankind"
God only, will ever know the awful
crimes and brutalities of the Siberian
penal colonies: human speech cannot
hope to picture the revolving scenes
that have been enacted by that
wretched murderer Of the European
nations.

WONDERS OF CORN.

Corn-fed pork furnishes our tables
with millions of hams and sausages,
besides bacon and lard, Corn pro-
duces the best of poultry and eggs. of
which alone we, as nation, consume
more (when measured by dolars)
than we do of wheat. OF cornstarch
we use about $7,00O,0O0 per year, to
say nothing of the enormous consump-
tion of glue. combs and other products
made from the horns, hoofs and hair
of those corn-fed animals To all
these we must add product of corn
oil (maXimum, $4,000 daily, largely
used in paints and the bl-products of

alcohol, dried and sold in cakes, for
animal food, amounting to millions of

corn accomplishes. Besides giving

az was troubled with sore hands, so
sore that when 1 would put them in
water the pain would nearly set me
crazy, the skin would peel off and the
flesh would get hard and break. There
would be blood flowing from at least
fifty places on each hand. Words could
never tell the suffering endured for
three years. 1 tried everything, but
could get no relief. l tried at least
eight different doctors, but none did
me any good, as my hands were as bad

began. also tried many remedies,

bad mornings, to think had to go to
work and stand the pain for ten hours,

Before 1 started to work l would
have to wrap every finger up sep
arately, so as to try and keep them
soft, and then wear gloves over the
rags to keep the grease from getting
on my work. At night 1 would have
to wear gloves in fact, 1 had to wear
gloves all the time. But thanks to
Cuticura, that is all over now.

THE .HEATHEN" JAPANESE.

Everybody knows that in spite of
their military ability the japanese,
after all. are only poor benighted
heather with a falacious ethical code
known as "bushido." An illustration
of the workings of this poor, pagan
standard of honor is cited in the ia
pan Weekly Mail.
After the capitulation of Port Ar
thur seven japanese soldiers rescued
four Russian Red Cross nurses from
drowning. Whereupon the Russian
Red Cross chief addressed a letter Of
thanks to General Iseli, commandant
of the fortress, and inclosed 100 ru-
bles for each of the rescuers. The
money was Immediately returned
with thanks by the general with let
ter saying that though he had pressed
the gift upon the men they had de-
clined it.
Their reason was" he continued,
that they had not been animated by
any expectation of reward when they
saved the lives, but had merely obeyed
the instinct of not failing to succor
others in mortal danger. 1t was sim
ply their duty. Were they to accept
any reward 1t would be repellant to
their feelings. To those unacquainted
with bushido this may be difficult to
understand. 1 would beg of you, sir,
that being assured they appreciate
your kind intention, you would accede
to their desire and leave their hearts
| in peace"
This incident will only go to con-
firm the prevalent impression Of the
heather traits Of the japanese. In
comnliance with a foolish and unen-
lightened code did not seven misguid-
ed Orlentals deliberately refuse
chance to acquire, at the present rate
Of exchange, $3.50 apiece? Nothing
could SO demonst. ate the urcivlized
nature Of these people as their indif'
ference TO a good business opportun'
ity. What hope is there for a nation
under the thraldom of such a fantas-
tic code?
Still, there Is a possibility that aftei
the japanese have had the advantage
