EVERYBODY CAN VOTE.

one fact which residents of Pendle-
ton must bear in mind for the coming
city campaign is that everybody can
vote, regardless of the street poll tax.
At the last legislature Senator Smith
secured a repeal of the provision in
the city charter making the payment
of the poll tax the only means by
which the voters of the city could cast
their ballots at city elections.
There are about 1900 votes in the
city and every one should be prepared
to vote intelligently, at the coming city
election in December.
There will be several propositions
before the voters, in which every
home-loving man will be vitality in
terested, and in every ward people
should make ready to select the right
man for councilman.
At the last city election only 300
votes were cast. most of this number
being gamblers, registered as labor
ers." This coming election should wit
ness a changed condition.

NEED OF \ CITY PARK.

At no other ume OF lne year is tle
need of a city park felt in this city, as
it is during the extremely hot weather
of July and August.
There is not a public seat to be
found anywhere in the city where a
stranger may sit down in the shade
and rest from his long walk in look
ing over the property that is offered
for sale.
There is not a shady spot of any
size, open to the public, where one
small family can find a place to en-
joy themselves in the thoughtfullness
and civic pride of the city.
There are 1000 people in Pendleton
who are not financially able to go to
the mountains and seashore during
the hot weather. They must stay at
home and work. They see the we'll
to-do leaving town as soon as the hot
weather comes. but they find no prep
aration by the city council for any en-
joyment by the poorer people who
must remain here all summer in the
heat
The rich property owners who fix
the policy of the city, are able to fly
away to cool places at coast and noun
tain resort. To them, personally, a
shady park is an unnecessary expense
and a public nuisance. because they
have pleasant. homes and surround
ings.
But out of Pendleton's 5000 popula-
ton are 1000 people who feel the need
of a public place of rest and enjoy
ment. They are owners of small
homes, -earners and men in
small business. who are the very back
bone of the city, but whose comforts
never enter into the consideration of
the well-to-do class which predomin-
ates in the management of the city.
At an expense of a small sum, COM
pared to the wealth of the CITY, a
beautiful park and small natatorium
could be prepared in this city, with
band stand, rustic seats and plenty OF
shade, where Pendleton people could
enjoy the blessings of the city:
thoughtfulness and progress.
If the people go after it in the righ
way they can get it. Elect men to the
city offices who are interested in sucf
things.

THE GREATER ASSOCIATION.

The contract was let today for the
enlargement of Pendleton Commercial
association rooms, and this step marks
a remarkable progress for the associa-
ton.
With its excellent library fitted up
and placed in new quarters, its well
equipped gymnasium and amusement
rooms open for the growing member
ship, the association will be by far
the leading public institution in East
ern Oregon.
This association should attract
every young man in the county to it's
membership. Not alone should PEN
dIeton boys and business men become
members, but it should attract people
from every town and locality in the
county.
Its object is the upbuilding of Una
dlla county. 1t considers and handles
questions vitality important to the
county every month, almost every
week in the year.
While people from out of town
might not attend every meeting, they
could attend occasionally, and when
in the city would always have a clean
entertaining place, in which they
would hold membership, in which tc
spend their idle time in the city.
The Commercial association is the
only place of amusement open to the
young men of the city, aside from the
saloons, and parents who are interest
ed in the associations kept by theil
boys should interest them in this or
ganization.
The membership is constantly grow
ing. It is composed of the LEADING
business and young men of the cit!
and nowhere else will young member
be in better associations than there.
The gymnasium will be an addition
al inducement for boys to join, as
will afford them an excellent oppor
tunity for physical exercise, as wei
as a quiet refined resort in which t
spend their evenings.
With the new quarters and neN
features. IT will be truly the Create
Commercial association, and will full
deserve its name in the light Of II

GREAT SALT LAKE.

Great Salt Lake is 1900 feet above
sea level. Just the height of Kamela,
on the eastern boundary of Umatilla
county. 1t Is about so miles long, and
from 90 to 80 miles in width. 1t has
no apparent outlet but evaporation
In 1850 the amount of saline matter
held in solution was 90 per cent, and
at the present time it is less than Is
per cent. The lake is gradually re-
ceding. 1t was much larger once than
it is now. The bars, cliffs and beaches
formed by the waters of the ancient
lake, called Bonneville, are plainly
visible along the base of the noun
tain.
The ancient lake has an area of 49,
500 square miles, and in some parts a
depth exceeding 1000 feet. The depth
where the Mormon temple now stands
is estimated to have been $50 feet.
Its dry bed is now occupied by 100000
people. The waters of the lake for
merly reached the ocean through Co
lumbia river. Geological researches
prove that there have been at least
two moist periods with intervening
and subsequent periods of dryness. A
change from the present dry climate
and scanty rainfall to a moist climate
would result in a great increase ir
area of the waters of the lake, and g
possible return to former vast area.

BLUFFING AMERICA.

In favor of a repeal or modification

boycott will be magnified by the

INDIA'S WHEAT CROP.

Consul William r. Fee, of Bombay,
sends the following interesting statis-
tics concerning the wheat crop of
India for 19O4-5, with comparisons
for the five preceding years. The
statistics are based on data furnish
ed by the statistical department Of the
Indian government. The consul gives
the production by provinces in tons of
2240 pounds, to which a column is
added by the bureau of manufactures
converting the tons into bushels. The
report follows:
The area Of this years crop is es-
timated at 2S,232,000 acres, which
shows a decrease over last year of less
than 1 per cent, The yield Is given at
7,519,575 tons (2S0,730,S00 bushels),
or nearly 22 per cent less than the
yield of the previous year.
The area under wheat in 1904 was
the highest of the decade, being some
5000, 900 acres greater than the pre-
vlous year.
The United Provinces, where the ef-
fects of frost and rust were most dis
astrous, account for 1,334,000 tons
(49,S02,6 ,667 bushels) of the deficiency
Little injury has occurred in the
Punjab and the northwest frontier
province, where the yield is consider
ably above the normal, though har-
vesting has been retarded by some
weeks.
In making comparisons with 1904
It must be remembered that the yield
Of that year was abnormally prolific
exceeding any previous record by
100000 tons (59,733,333 bushels)
The outturn of 1906 is, therefore, well
above the average.

direct touch with the coolies, and
would soon create as strong public
sentiment against them there, as there
is ON this coast,
The admission of undesirable immi-
grants into the United States is now
the most perilous issue before the
people. The Chinese should not be
added to the great ignorant, vicious
class that is flocking here.

l am thinking this morning,
not of leprosy. but of another
malady for which the world
Graves a remedy. 1 am thinking
of that disease of the soul called
pessimism. Is life worth living?
''No!" said the 5000 who COM I
mitted suicide in the United
States last year. 1 am thinking
ing of these, of the 5000 who
will commit suicide this year,
and of countless others who
would end life but for cowardice
or superstition. 1 am thinking
of those who have found life a
disappointment, whose days are
heavy-footed, in whose existence
there is no zest, who, at most,
are but drifting with the tide,
weary of the voyage, yet dread
ing the end.-Herbert S. Bige-
