I'm Order to Ever Get a Fair Deal

Is the Opinion Of Commissioners
Prouty-iowans Indorse the
Presidents Position.
JUSTICE HARLAN SPOKE TODAY.

Washington, May 19.-Commis-
sioner Prouty was before the senate
interstate committee yesterday and
stated that empowering the commits
sion TO adjust inequalities and in
justices between a shipper and rail-
road. did not mean that the commits
sion was to have power to fix all
Interstate rates.
In his opinion railway rates are
lower now than II they had been fix
ed by a commission. Competition in
railways, he declared, had ceased or
would cease in "A very short time. If
the commission had power to fix rates
in order to make differentials II must
have, he suggested, power to fix both
a maximum and minimum rates. He
belived that when rate is fixed by
commission 1t should take effect
in thirty days.
What he wanted more than any
thing else was that the duty of the
commission should be defined. Com
missioner Prouty asserted that in
the many cases where orders of the
commission had not been sustained
in the courts the decisions were up
on question of law and not findings
of fact and that the unreasonable
ness of rates condemned by the com
mission were not passed upon by the
court. He believes rebates are still
paid to some extent. These were un-
der elevator and terminal charges.
Discrimination, he predicted would
he a greater evil than rebates In the
future. Answering question of
Senator Newlands as to the possibili-
~ of a square deal in all railroad
business, the witness said the only
way to effect that was for the gov
eminent to take control of the roads

Greener, American commercial agent
at Vladivostok, has cabled the state
department that all foreign CONNER

cave Vladivostok fortress and are
given permission to reside in cities of
the Maritime provinces. 1t is recall
ed here thata similar measure was
adopted by Russian authorities at
Port Arthur at the beginning of the
investment of that place by the Jap
anese, and hence it is assumed that
Vladivostok is expected to become a

LET UNIATILLA LEAD.

In the sisterhood of Oregon coun-
ties, Umatilla should take no second
place at the Lewis and Clark fair.
What citizen would wish to hear it
said that Umatilla has failed to make
an effort at least. to display her Won
drous resources among other counties
at the exposition? This thought is
sufficient warrant for the county
court to proceed with its work of
making an exhibit worthy of the
county.
This matter of providing funds and
making an exhibit is not a Pendleton
affair-Milton, Weston, Freewater,
Athena, Adams, Helix. Pilot Rock,
Echo, Umatilla-every point in the
county is vitality interested In seeing
a first-class county exhibit and the
resolution passed by the Commercial
association yesterday evening, encour-
aging the county court in its work
and inviting other commercial bodies
in the county and the citizens in gen.
eral to do likewise. is highly appro-
pirate and shows the spirit of a pro-
gressive and proud people,
What one of these towns in Una
tilla county would wish to raise its
voice against the actions of the 'coun-
ty court in making every possible eff
fort to make a creditable display of
our resources? What one would wish
to be held responsible for a failure
of Umatilla county to make a proper
showing?
Then. as the county towns all have
pride in the county, and have a desire
to see every section fully represented
let the citizens, newspapers, CONNER
cial bodies and municipal organiza-
tions all over the county assure the
county court Of their hearty cooper
alton and good will in this work.

HOW DOES 1T SEEM TO YOU?

1t seems to me I'd like to go
Where bells don't ring, nor whistles
blow,
Nor clocks don't strike nor gongs
don't sound,
And I'd have stiffness all around
Not real still stiffness, but just the
trees
Low whisperings or the hum of bees,
Or brooks faint babbling over stones
In strangely, softly tangled tones.
Or maybe a cricket or katydid,
Or the songs of birds in the hedges
hid,
Or Just some sweet sounds as these
To fill a tired heart with ease.
II 'twern't for sight and sound and
smell
I'd like city pretty well;
But when 1t comes to getting rest,
1 like the country lots the best.
Some times 1t seems to me l must
Just quit the city's din and dust,
And get out where the sky is blue
And, say how does it seem to you?

RUSSIA is VANQUIsHED.

Back. from the shores of the Pa
cific, let the Slav hordes trek again;
back from the seas let the remnants
of her shattered fleets go to bear the
message that the new world, to which
Russia is a sullen and defiant stran-
ger, will have none of her arts of
darkness and cruelty!
Build bonfires on the hilItops and
frontiers of every civilized nation, for
the defeat of the Russian fleets is
the last triumph in the most splendid
military program of modern ages,
Light and progress and intelligence
have won bloody day over ignor-
ance and superstition and egotism
and cruel warfare that have come
down with Russian tactics from the
dark ages.
Let the once terrible Cossack now
go back to Russia to ride down wom-
en- and children in his fury. He Is
no match for an unmounted japanese
soldier. Let the naughty, drunken
Russian officer go back in disgrace
and humiliation to his laughter
czar. for neither officer nor czar Is
equal to one mite of a japanese
fighter, imbued with civilized instincts
and carrying the blood of soldier
in his veins.

making on the slightest provocation.
This is worthy and beautiful trait.
The French spirit, if carried into the
commercial spheres of the United
states, in its true meaning would
smooth over many of the sharp con-
fiicis of every day life.
We pay too little attention to mem
cry and too much to money. Reluc-
family we shut our doors against the
&ollars, even in the presence of the
most hallowed anniversaries on the
calendar.
But this holiday, this day of mem
eEry and of tears, this anniversary of
the crowning of the slain, this day
Of decoration of the silent tombs, this
return to the feast of flowers, is fix
ing itself more and more firmly in
the national heart.
Turning from the busy career of
the world, we are brought face to
face with the absent ones of the
hearthstones for day. If the cruel
Eash of thrift and enterprise drive us
uDercilessly forward from day to day
without rest, how sweet to those who
nave the spark of tenderness and SEN
rfment yet burning in their breasts
TO turn aside from the furious race
for an hour and be alone with the
dead among the thrilling splendors
of memory.
In memory we call forth the saint
ed forms and sit again at the feet of
tn departed-wonderin lingering
" The heart yearns to know
whether on yon mystical shores they
know and understand as we remem-
her and weep here.
Then, arising from our own selfish
sgrrows. we take a broader view of
chat greatest national sorrow that
ever rent asunder the sacred veil OF
a nation and, dividing the memorials
which we shower upon the tombs OF
oar own dead. with the weather
beaten tombs of the fallen heroes
We seal anew the bonds of fraternity
which they gave their lives to defend
and perpetuate.

cism seems just. II there is anything
in worship, it is its simplicity and
spontaneity, its voluntary offering,
whatever that may be on every occa-
sion. True, there may be more elo.
quence in printed prayers, more
smoothness and evenness in printed
programs. but all printed and fixed
forms lack the human touch, they
lack the individual spirit which is
necessary to a true homage to the
Creator.
Forms and ceremonies are but
empty mechanisms Rituals become
commonplace and disrobe religion of
all its charms and inspiration. The
East Oregonian is extremely demo-
cratic and believes in the least possi-
BILE perfunctory forms on all occa-
sions and in all the affairs of life.
