The Pendleton Tribune Icalls atten'
tion to the unusual lack of talk about
the election of a United States senator
at the meeting of the legislature next
winter. Come to think about it, the
people are not talking about who will
be the next senators, but then, why
should they, says the Heppner Gazette.
The matter was settled last June.
Mr.. Bourne and Mr.. Mulkey will be
elected on the first ballot. The Ore
gon lawmakers will be out of job
before the forty days limit.

pardonable pride displayed what was
perhaps the largest cabbage head ever
seen here. This head of cabbage
weighed actually "a pounds, and
while no measurements were taken,
we feel safe in saying that it was con-
siderably larger than the head of a
certain individual which was grarhic-
ally described by an old lady at the
county fair recently held in Pendle-
ton.. The cabbage head differs ma
terially in many respects from the
other head mentioned, and one re-
spect in particular, in that the cab
bage head has core and the other
head has not.

Is Disease a Crime !?

Not very long ago, popular magazine
published an editorial article In which
the writer asserted, in substance, that all
disease should be regarded as criminal.
Certain 1t Is, that much of the sickness
and suffering OF mankind is due to the
violation of certain of Natures laws.
But TO say that all sickness should be
regarded as criminal. must appeal to
every reasonable individual as radically
wrong.
1t would be harsh, unSympathetic,
cruel yes criminal, to condemn the poor,
weak, Over-worked housewife who sinks
under the heavy load of household cares
and burdens, and suffers from weak
ncsses, various displacements OF pelvic
organs and other arrangements peculiar
to her sex.
Frequent bearing OF children, with its ex-
acting demands upon the system. coupled
with the care. worry and labor OF rearing
large family. is often the cause OF weak
nesses arrangements and debility which are
aggravated by the many household cares,
and the hard, and never-ending work which
the mother is called upon to perform. DIR.

Not the man who owns the largest
number of acres, and who thereby
keeps the largest numb ber of his fellow
beings from owning any land at all,
but the man who puts whatever land
he owns to the best possible use, is
worthy of the homage of his fellows.
The farmer who by the use of intense
cultivation, irrigation and "brains, 4"
draws an iucome of $4,000 year from
ten cares of ground-and there are
sue b farmers--is worth twenty times
as much to community as he who
gets bare living off of one hundred
acres. The country will, by and by,
it is hoped, abandon the false stand
ard which makes the mere possession
of many acres token of superiority,
and award the palm to the man who
gets the most out of an acre. Baker

From the plans of the admlnistra-
ton, the people of this country will
not be required to pay a single penny
for the cost of intervention by the
United States in the affairs of Cuba.
Just as China paid the expenses of
the American troops and ships in
quelling the Boxer uprisings in 1900,
SO will Cuba be compelled to pay out
of her treasury an enormous sum for
the folly which made American inter-
vention necessary. The war depart
ment has now given out the figures of
the present cost as $4,000 per day
and this figure will be materially ad-
vaneed when Governor Magoon takes
charge and relieves Secretary Taft.
The governors salary has been fixed
at $25, 200 yearly, the same amount
that the Cuban people paid to Presi-
dent Palma. The new governor has
power to surround himself with all
kinds of high-priced officials or he
may limit the number and the amount
of salaries as he sees f1t and Cuba will
have no say whatever in fixing the
price she must pay.
On the basis of present plans for
complete intervention, and following
the precedent of the Boxer uprising,
it is now computed that Cuba will be
required to pay $1,OOO,OOO month
for the services being rendered by the
United States.

lhe jamestown Exposition will have
a unique exhibition from the navy de-
partment. A small sized basin,
twenty feet long and ten feet wide,
filed with blue sea water and floating
thirty eight warships in line Of re-
view, is one of the surprises awaiting
exposition visitors. The ships will
be exact reproductions of those which
took part in the great naval parade at
Oyster Bay and were reviewed by the
president. From each smoke stack
will pour columns of black smoke,
from the masts will fly the flags
which attire the navy's ships when
they have ON holiday dress and from
each gun will belch tiny shot fired
by smokeless powder.
Every type of United States wal
ship will be seen, from the collier to
the battleship. The work has already
been started SO there will be no pos
sibility Of the heavy detail work pre-
venting its completion by the time the
exposition opens. The cost does moi
enter into the scheme at all. As much
money will be spent as is necessary tC
complete the wonderful display il
every detail.

Special Correspondence.

The president is looking forward to
the changes that will soon take place
iu his official family. Before the
close of congress there will be two
vacancies in the cabinet. Secretary
Shaw will retire on February LIST, at
which time he will have rounded out
five years at the head of the treasury
department, and Attorney General
Moody will retire month earlier, it
being his desire to resume the practice
of law. Rumor has it that Moody is
slated for the supreme court bench,
but this is hardly likely, as much op-
position would probably arise from
having two Massachusetts, men serv-
ing as associate justices at the same
time, Justice Holmes of that state,
being member of the court. Mr..
Moody's retirement is entirely volun-
tary. The president has frequently
asked him to reconsider his purpose
and greatly regrets to see him 60.
It is almost certain that Ambassador
to Russia Meyer will be appointed to
one of the vacancies, but just which
he will secure appears to be unde-
termined. The second vacancy affords
abundant opportunity for speculation,
as yet no name has been mentioned
that seems to stand the test.

Secretary Wilson of the department
of agriculture is highly gratified over
the fact that 5O,000,0OO bushels OF
Durum wheat will be threshed in this
country this year. He is pleased that
this department took the step five
years ago of introducing Durum wheat
into the United States as the results
have been beneficial to a great many
farmers. This wheat is known as
macaroni wheat, because of its value
in the manufacture of maoaroni. 1t
is hard spring wheat and cannot be
raised in the winter but it is now pro
posed to hybridize the wheat with the
best winter wheat of this country. If
this is successful, more farmers will
take up the raising of Durum wheat.
The macaIoni business in the United
States is on the increase and the de-
mand is for clean, American made
goods of this nature in place of that
imported from Italy. Several interest
ing bulletins have been prepared on
the subject by the depal tment of agri-
culture, and anyone desiring them
, should address letter to the congress
man of their district, ho will in turn
write to the secretary of agriculture.
Now comes the announcement that
! the Panama canal is to be built by
contract. In few days the commits
! sion appointed to investigate the sub
ject will make public statement set
ting forth its reasons for favoring the
contract system, and at that time a
form of contract will be published
showing exactly the sort of document
believed by the commissioners to be
necessary for safeguarding the work.
1t is known that the president be-
lieves that the work can be done more
satisfactorily by contractors than by
the government, aud in a lengthy con-
ference with Chairman Shonts, the
matter was discussed fully.

STATE BOARD OF HEALTH eau
8. TIONS PEOPLE AS TO TREAT
MENT OF CONSUMPTION.

Circulars dealing with tuberculosis,
sis, it's cures and its prevention, have
been issued by the state board Of
health and are being sent broadcast
thruout the state. Six separate circu-
lars have been prepared; one for the
patient; one for the physician; one for
the public; one for people particularly
interested in the public schools, and
two circulars dealing with the sick
room and disinfection.
In connection with the circulars,
blanks providing for reports on tuber,
cular cases are being sent out, and will
keep the state board fully informed of
the stage and virulency of the disease
in each reported case.
Among the instructions offered to
tuberculosis patients are the following:
Men with consumption should not wear
boards or mustaches.
A consumptive should sleep alone and,
If possible, in a separate room. The room
should always have an abundance of
fresh air The windows In the room
should be open day and night. The pa
tents soiled washable clothing. and bed
linen should be handled as little as pos
sible when dry, and should be placed in
water until ready for washing. 1t should
then be boiled for at least half an hour
before being mixed with clothing belong
Ing to other persons. Me
Don't live in rooms where there is no
fresh air. .....-.
Don't work in rooms where there is no
fresh air.
Don't sleep in rooms where there is no
fresh air.
Stay out of doors all you can.
Don't be afraid Of cold air.
Remember that sunshine kills the germs
Of consumption.
Go to bed early. Sleep at least eight
hours.
If you have to work, rest all you can
while at home.
Eat all the good, plain, nourishing food
Raw eggs and milk are important arti-
cles Of diet.
Drink plenty of pure water.
Don't drink beer, whisky or other alco-
hos.
Your most important duty is to get
we'll. Let all other duties be secondary
, to this.
The circular addressed to the public
says:
Remember that more people die from
this disease in Minnesota than from any
other. +
OF 1910 deaths in Minnesota In 1905,
1886 were due to consumption. Valuing
a human life at $1,000, this meant an
actual loss to the state of about $40,
600 in one year as result Of this dis
ease.
The care Of those i'll with this disease
during the same year, but not dying,
would amount to at least s5,O0O,OOO.
The circular sent to those interested
in schools says:
See to it that those suffering from
this disease are not employed as teach
ers.
See to it that children suffering from
this disease are excluded from school.
