Senator McEnery of Louisiana is as

Ledger. One day last session one of the
newspaper correspondents interested in
Louisiana news sent in card to him,
and Mr.. McEnery came out of the sem
ate chamber to see him.
ANY news, SENATOR" shouted the
correspondent.
Whats that" said Mr. McEnery.
ANY news today?" roared the cor
respondent, getting purple.
Don't hear you" said the senator.

handed 1t to the newspaper man. The
latter. seeing the hopelessness Of the
case accepted the cigar as the best way
out of the situation, expressed his
thanks In pantOmine and went away.
Senator McEnery returned to the
senate chamber and sat down beside
Senator Foster What do you think
Of this for internal cheek?" shouted he.

me out In the midst Of this important

Can the good citizen realize that
all this was true of Portland eight
short months ago and that II is no
longer true-that the last gambler
has come forward with his pledge to
hereafter observe the law? When
one thinks of what was it is imPossi-
BILE to realize that what is was brought
about in such short order But it
has been done as everyone can see
and it would have been impossible,

ADVANCE OF THE CHURCH.

1t can no longer be charged that
the present church, all denominations
included. is made up of women and
children.
No other institution on earth ocn-
tains today, SO many hard-handed,
hard-headed. practical, driving, bust
ness men as the church. This class
of membership is constantly increas-
ing. even in a greater ratio than that
of the women and children.
Not alone In Pendleton is this the
absolute fact, but all over the world.
In Wales within the past two weeks,
over 10000 confessions have been
made. most of these being miners to
whom religion has never appealed be-
fore, In Denver during the present
winter, over 5000 additions have been
made to the various Protestant de-
nominations. in Chicago proportion
ate number has been added to the
rolls and In ninumerable smaller
cities, revivals of especially vital in
terest have been conducted with as
founding results
1t is folly to deny the inevitable
triumph of the church on earth. 1t
may be ages before it is accomplish
ed. 1t may be centuries before the
last lingering. defiant force of evil
and wrong will yield, but 1t will yield,
just as certainly as the sun will warm
the buried seed into life and fruition.
Every year marks forward move
ment. In local circles this advance
is especially marked. In Pendleton'
during the present winter every Pro-
testant denomination has either con-
Quoted a revival or will conduct
such a meeting this year. The meet
ings now in progress are being at
tended by Just as large and interest
ed crowds, as when they began, six
weeks ago. Tne interest mas nol idb
ged and every night additions are
being made to the already large
memberships.
Men of the highest national repu-
tations have been brought here by
the different denominations, at great
cost and with equally great results.
some of the best addresses and dis
courses ever heard in this city have
been delivered from Pendleton pull
pits this winter, and it Is encouraging
TO the Christian people to see the
gradually yielding evils melt before
the influence and sunshine of the
truth and the right.

With no United States senator to
elect the general interest in the leg
islative session lags. The people are
interested In local measures, but it is
one of the most uneventful sessions
ever assembled. And yet, its radi-
cal reform features should not be
overlooked. Speaker Mills has prov
ed to be one of the most practical
of presiding officers, and there have
been more safeguards erected around
the business features of the legisla-
tive session than ever before. on the
suggestion of Speaker Mills, no bills
are to be introduced in the legisIa-
ture. during the last five days of the
session. This measure of safety has
been adopted to prevent the rail
roading' of Objectionable legislation
at the last hour Half the legislative
wrongs of which the state has suf-
fered in the past have been enacted
in the rush of the last day when the
friends of the state were off their
guard and too busy to closely scru-
tiniZe every bill rushed through.
This one radical measure of protec-
tion is the greatest advance ever
made by one session of the legisla-
ture.

Marshal Carney and his force are
to be congratulated In their efforts
to prevent petty crime by causing
the congregating hohoes to move on.
These hoboes, some of them princes
at heart and gentlemen in disguise
are always a menace to woodpiles
and coal bins, especially where they
are allowed to colonize in a city. But
there is a vastly more numerous and
dangerous class of hoboes In Pendle-
ton, that is a more perilous menace
to the city. than any ragged beggar
that squats about dim campfire on
the creek bottom. This other class is
arrayed in white shirt, stands on
the street corner and lies i'm wait for
farmer boys and workingmen, to rob
them of their wages i'm poker game
or by some other equally dishonest
means. This class is q thousand fold
more perilous to the community than

lily awaiting tidings from him, In a

more dangerous aggregation of tin
horns and men without occupation.

hoboes moving. Don't discriminate
between the white shirt class and the
other class

BOY WEATHER.

It's boytime when it freezes,
It's boytime when 1t SHOWS;
The youngster is the one whose lot
Is happiest whe nit SHOWS.
It's rough on rheumatism,
And 1t seriously annoys
The dignity of grown folks,
But it's pretty good for boys.
It's just another instance
When nature makes 1t plain
That In the mighty scheme of things
There's nothing made In vain.
So let's forget our sorrows
In a fellow beings Joys;
The weathers hard on grown folks,
But it's pretty good for boys.

THE GUARDIAN OF OUR BODY

The foremost biologist Of our day,
NJ Metschnikof. has shown the world
of science that there are leucocytes in our
blood that act as scavengers o. policemen
These policemen which are called bhdgo.
cyfes look out for the noxious or poisonous
elements in our blood. Various offending
elements are picked out of the blood and
tissues by these policemen and destroyed.
Therefore our lives are protected by
these blood-cell. policemen, the pkagoeytes
and we enjoy immunity from disease so
long as our blood contains plenty Of phngo-
cytes and red blood corpuseles.
" new broom sweeps clean and in
order to put our own house in order we
must get rid of all the poisons in the blood
with new broom such as an Alternative
extract made from roots and herbs-with-
out the use of alcohol, as DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery, a specific for
making rich red blood-for ersdicating the
poisons from the blood. In some way the
policemen in the blood are increased in
number and strength--so that We are put
in the best possible shape to resist disease
TO cure neuralgia, colds. catarrh, and in.
cipient consumption.
The more study and time is given to the
subject the more we find that the blood is
the center of lile'-says DR.. K " Pierce.
the noted specialist Of Buffalo, -the health
and comfort Of the average person depends
entirely on THIS blood supply-for the heart
must have pure blood or it will not pump
and keep the body supplied regularly like
the beautiful automatic engine it Is The
nerves must be fed on pure blood-or we
suffer the pain OF neuralgia, which Is the
cry of the starved nerves for food. Head
aches, cold in the head, catarfh-and many
other things are due to stagnation of the

y bill has been introduced in the
Oregon legislature by Senator Wright
prohibiting dentists from advertising
in newspapers. or attaching the pro-
fessional degree to their names. If
dentistry is not ore of the great
modern professions, and one of the
most useful and widely needed, then
the common belief and experience of
mankind is at fault. Why should
not dentist advertise as well as a
lawyer, a surgeon or a veterinarian
Such bills as this would seem to be
useless and groundless waste of the
time of the legislature.

The singers of Pendleton should
cooperate with Prof McMinn, in his
laudable undertaking to organize a
chorus of voices Pendleton needs
more home talent productions The
genius and ability are here, and only
lack organization. Such chorus
would be a source of exquisite pleas
ure to the people of this city. There
are not enough elevating and inspir-
ing public amusements here for a
city of this size and tastes. In the
absence of such things, the people
cultivate a taste for the trashy and
cheaper amusements. There are as
able singers here as in any city on
the coast, and there is no reason why
there should not be cordial cooper
alton in bringing together first
class chorus.

Today the East Oregonian presents
Its readers with an array OF facts
proving that Pendleton is destined to
be the leading school and home town
in the Inland Empire. At this time,
i'm the middle of the winter, when
building operations are at stand
still. in every other city in Eastern
Oregon, there are about 20 elegant
residences either contracted or in
course of construction, most of these
averaging over $4,000 in cost. No
other city In the state can present
such a showing as that. No other
city in the Northwest can produce
such certain evidence of future
growth and prosperity. and perma-
nent stability. These residences are
being built largely by farmers who
are coming to this city for school
purposes. Invited by the excellent
school facilities promised here when
the new buildings are completed,
these farmers are bringing their
families here to grow up in Pendle-
ton. Does not the city of Pendleton
owe these people the best possible
moral surroundings for their fami-

NEW STATE OF SEoUoYAH
Indian Convention Declares that
People VIII Not BE Satisfied with
Statehood with oklahoma.

MUSKOGEE, l. T., Sept. THE consti-
tutional convention tonight adopted res
olution declaring that whether congress
accepts the constitution of Sequoyah or not,
in no case will the people of this country
be satisfied with statehood with Okla
homa.
The convention selected Fort Gibson as
capital of the proposed state and ap-
pointed committee to take the constitu
tion and appeal for statehood TO congress
and the president. The convention today
adopted the greater part of the consttu-
ton reported by the committee.
Article 4, on suffrage and election, pro-
vides that the first general assembly shall
provide for submission to the people of a
provision for woman suffrage. The labor
OF children under 12 years and the farming
out of convicts is prohibited. A state
corporation commission of three is pro-
vided for, appointed by the GOVERNOR, en-
powered to issue charters and regulate
transportation companies and fix rates,
subject to appeal to the supreme court.
The fellow servant doctrine as affecting
transportation companies is abolished.
The convention chose four members of
congress, whose election will be ratified
at an election on November 7. The nomi-
nees are: John r. Thomas. Muskogee, re-
publican c. L. Long, Wewoka, republican;
d. c. McCurtain, Kinta, democrat; Joseph
La Hay, Claremore, democrat. McCurtaln
is a son of the chief OF the Choctaw nation
and La Hay is Cherokee
