INGALLS, LAST APOLOGY.

John Mccall has passed beyond hu-
man censure. But a remark which
he made on his death bed is worth
mentioning. He gave US a glimpse Of
the mask he had to wear. If you
only knew what kind Of work I had
to do
There is pathetic eloquence in
these words. They reveal the double
life forced constantly upon public
men. Representing public trust
and tangled up with interests often
times incompatible, they have to
fight out their Hamlet problems be-
fore the tribunal of conscience. They
would do one thing; they have to do
another.
This is the case of the politician
who is pledged to a party rule. It Is
the case of the clergyman connected
with stupid congregation. It is the
case Of the editor writing for a boss
controlled community. It is the case
of every public man whose ideals are
buried under the rubbish of prejudice
or corruption.
McCall's apology will hardly appeal
10 the people whom he has wronged
but it should make US charitable. The
double life IS not pleasant 1t means
constant hide and seek game Will
our best convictions. II means mora
cowardice. Worst Of all, it means {
loss of those higher sensibilitiei
which furnish the basis OF true man
hood.

HOTEL TOWELS.

eve lose money enough in stolen
towels every week to board half n
dozen porters," said a hotel clerk.
"We never know exactly where they
go, but they certainly disappear. and
that right fast. If some of the people
who take our towels would exert their
energies in a more laudable vocation,
they would have been rich many
moons ago.
There is scarcely a room in the
hotel that does not lose a towel at
least three times n week. OF course,
we place several kinds, face towels,
bath towels and just plain towels, in
each room. and some one finds them
so attractive that they are dropped
into a grip and hustled out with the
remainder of the luggage.
when you figure that a good bath
towel costs from 10 to 20 cents, and
other towels anywhere from to 8
cents, you probably can estimate the
dead loss to n hotel. 1t is very con-
venient to drop them into satchels,
suit cases or trunks, and they are
right handy to wrap shoes or other
dirty articles of clothing in
Louisville Courier-Journal.

DON'T BUY POOR BOOKS.

There is no money that shows it
was wasted for so long q time as the
money spent in a poor book. If the
money was fooled away on something
to eat, what it bought disappears; or
IL it was spent on something TO wear
its product wears out. But the boob
on which money was wasted stares
the purchaser in the face every time
he goes near the bookcase. Therefore
buy your reading carefully and ju-
ciously.-Atchson (Kan.) Globe.

THE HIDDEN STREAM.

Deep, deep within my breast
Flows on my love for you,
Beneath the days unrest
And all the long night through.
Whether I laugh or weep,
Let life be grave or gay,
feel that current keep
Its full resistless way.
And yet so deep it hides
That none has ever known
NV beings inmost tides
Are swayed by you alone.

The republican papers Of Umatilla
county are boosting II. NJ. Cake Of
Portland for the United States senate
in preference to Judge Lowell, a Una
tlla county republican. Are these
papers truly republican papers, or
are they personal organs whose ut
terauces are governed entirely by the
hand at the faucet or stop-cock of
Umaulla county politics? What do
the republicans Of Umatilla county
thing Of this? What do the thinking,
practical, honest members Of the par
ty think Of these personal organs
who claim the support Of republicans
as republican organs, yet which are
the personal property Of a very small
element in the party whose ends are
| wholly selfish? The East Oregonian
| hopes to see these republican" pa
pers be truly republican for once that
| the little influence they may have
win be for the interests Of Umatill5
county on his occasion. Eastern Ore
gon now has an opportunity to secure
a representative in the United state

Albert Douglas, Of Chillcothe, o.,

Speaker Reed once remarked that
there was but one woman in Washing
ton society who could talk politics in
telllgently, and she is Mrs. Robert r.
Hit, wife Of representative from
Illinois. Mrs. Fairbanks realizes more
nearly the woman who is such a force
in British political life. She is q law

conditions.

Emporium Opera House.

The announcement that Edwin J.
Hadley is to appear here Monday,
April 18th, seems to be all that is nec-
essary to apprise theatregoers of an
opportunity of witnessing the most
elaborate exhibition of moving pictures
ever shown to local patrons. Mr..
Hadley's exhibitions have always been
absorbingly interesting to both young
and old, and his temperance will
doubtless bring out an overhowing
house. Hadley pictures are distinctly
different from any others, lacking the
tiresome flicker so noticeable and so
annoying. With the coming engage.
ment Mr.. Hadley will bring an entire
change of program comprising all the
latest in spectacular, educational com
edy and magic pictures and an elabor-
ate collection of. interesting views of
travel. Prices: Csc, 35c and SOC.

A Fortunate Incident.

As assistant work train foreman
VIM. Buck, while walking on the b. &
s., tracks Sunday, April Sth, on his
way to Castle Garden came upon a
large rock in the centre eff the main
track. He at once removed the OBJ
stacle, which had it not been discover
ed would have caused a serious acci-
dent. MIR. Buck deserves credit for
this worthy deed and it goes without
saying that the b. & S. R'y Co., as well
as the travelling public at large, feel
very grateful towards Mr.. Buck for
this timely act Mr.. Buck enjoys the
respect and confidence of the officials
and employees of the P. R. r. Co., who
join with his many friends in and
about Driftwood in extending to him
hearty congratulations

The Farmers Question.

Shrewd purchasers are invariably
suspicious of commodity that isn't
advertised. They justly reason that il
an article offered for sale is as GOOD
as it is cracked up to be the
manufacturer or distributor wouldn't
hesitate minute to tell the public all
about it in print. A farmer who airs
his views in Agricultural Advertising
puts this throught in nutshell when
he says: 81 have gotten so that when
an agent calls on me with something
don't understand ask him where it is
advertised. If he can't show me any-
thing but a pocketfull of handbills I
call the dogs gs.-Philadelphia Record.

Two Lads Instantly Killed.

Last Sunday morning while Geo.
Brendel and Frank Gerber, two lads
aged twelve years respectively, were
walking on the track near their homes
at Benzinger, they were struck and in
stantly killed by train No. 12 going
east The boys were on their way to
st. Marys for the purpose of attend
ing church, and while going up the
hill between Benzinger and st. Marys,
they ATTEMPTED to climb on a freight
train, and as they ran across the track,
the passenger train going in the oppo-
site direction on the other track, struck
them. 1t was very foggy morning
and the engineer was unable to see
the boys. This is very sad accident
and the parents cf the young boys
have the heartfelt sympathy of all.
The funerals were held Wednesday
morning from the Catholic church at
St Marys.

Hadley's Moving Pictures.

There should be a crowded house to
greet Edward j. Hadley when he comes
with his famous pictures at the opera

the visit of Mr.. Hadley, who is undis-
putably the foremost exhibitor of Nov
ing Pictures in America to-day.
With this engagement an entire
change of program will be given eclips.
ing all former efforts. Prices; 25c, 25c

moving picture exhibition on the road.

Possibly Left Us.

Brother "Gassaway" Davis, whose
pithy column in the PRESS has enter.
tained many off our readers has gone to
Olean, N. Y, to accept a position as
clerk in Grand Central Hotel. Posi-
bly, he may remain there permanently
and possibly not, having a warm spot
for Emporium in his heart. Mr.. Davis
is iovial, good fellow, of more than
usual experience in business affairs,
having filled positions in many climes;
a gentleman of fine education, pleasing
manners, hearty hand shake and a
good word for his fellow man. Hope
he may return to Emporium in the
near future.

AS Gassaway Sees the Post office
ImproVement.

And had the ceiling painted.

No more cock reaches play,
No more the busy buzzing fly,
Is heard throughout the day,
No more the missve waiting girl,
Shall chew gum in the dirt,
No more the ladies need to wear,
The abbreviated skirt,
No more the honest citizen,
Shall clear dust from his throat,
And keep his waiting neighbor,
Brushing cobwebs from his coat.
Megaphone the glorious news,
From the top of Bryan Hill,
To the stormy banks of the Portage,
To the streets of Sizerville,
Let suspicious people know,
Their mail cannot be tainted,
We've busted off the windowsills,
And had the ceiling painted.
