LITTLE BOY.
believed

Little boy, little boy open your heart!
Let me peep into thar wonderful
mart;
Flowers and laughter ana songs for
a kiss,
Faith in hereafter when things are
amiss;
Yonder a fairy peeps out with n
smile
Singing an airy sweet song all the
while;
Brownies and spirits long frightened
from earth
Here are at work making laughter
and mirth;
True fairyland is this wonderful mart,
Little boy, little boy, open your heart!
Little boy, little boy, close fast your
heart!
There's not a treasure from which you
can part
Flowers and laughter-theyre worth
more than gold;
Faith in hereafter-its value untold;
Fairies-there's naught in the world
half so sweet:
When you have lost them your loss is
complete;
Guard them and keep them, your
fairies and elves,
Till they depart, as they will, of them
selves.
There's not a treasure from which
you can part
Little boy, little boy, close fast your
heart
William Wallace Whitelock.

The East Oregonian is delighted to
see the Commercial association take
ur the matter Of street paving on the
outside streets. While the paving
plant is here 1t should be kept con-
tinually busy improving Pendleton
streets. The cost is not beyond the
reach Of residence property and the
result Of the paving will be to bring
to the city large numbers of substan-
tial people and large quantities OF
outside capital which will be attracted

THE TRUSTS TO BLAME.

Denver uses 100000 tons of coal a
year. The smallest. consumption Is
about 1000 tons a day, on some sum-
mer days, and 1000 tons in "a hours in
cold weather. About one-third of it
is slack, or steam coal, used in big
plants under forced draught. Say
that 666, 900 tons are coal that costs
$3.50 and upwards a ton.
All that coal is sold at price as
unnatural as the fact IS unnatural
that Colorado beet sugar costs more

} No one places a higher value

studying things that will be of
