THE GOLDEN GATE.

The Annals of San Francisco, pub
lished in 1854, gives the following as
the origin of the name Golden
Gate" applied to the straits that are
the entrance to the bay of San Fran
cisco: "The mid entrance to the bay of
San Francisco lies in latitude 81 de-
grees As minutes north, and longitude
122 degrees 80 minutes west from
Greenwich. This is a strait, running
nearly northeast called Chrysopaloe.
or the Golden Gate, about five miles
land and of an average width of one
and a half or two miles.
"The name Golden Gate first ap-
pears in the Geographical Memoir of
California and relative map publish
ed by Colonel Fremont in the spring
of 1S4S. The term was descriptive,
not of the literal golden region with
in, then as yet undiscovered, but
merely of the rich and fertile country
which surrounded the shores of the
bay, and of the wealth which the COM
merce of the Pacific, passing through
the strait, would certainly give to the
future great city of the place.
THE name was probably suggested
by the Golden Horn of Constantinople
Since the discovery of the auriferous
| character of the country, the title has
become of a still more happy nature;
| and it's bestower must surely have
had a prophetic soul, though he him.

WHERE OUR WRONGS WE RIGHT

Somewhere in the far-off spaces
That never n mortal knows,
In hidden and distant places
Beyond where the last star glows;
In a planet serener and sweeter
Than seen in our dreams of delight,
A world of glory completer,
Is the place where our wrongs we
right.
And it isn't the wrong that was done
We grievingly strive to repair
But the wrong that we did to a broth
er amid
Earth's valleys of worry and care.
oh, out from this life and its shadows,
The spirits of mortals, made free,
Go seeking through star-lighted
meadows,
That marvellous country to see.
The black gulf of chaos they border.
Touch hands with the goblins of night,
But they find, when One giveth the
order,
The place where our wrongs are
made right.
And it isn't the wrong that was done
In that far-away world we shall
heed,
But only to know that brother knew
woe,
And found us no friend in his need.
Perchance through an aeon We'll wan
der
Perchance but dubious day,
But the One who is needing us yon-
der
Will guide us. wherever we stray;
And so, through untrodden abysses,
Through spaces of gloom and af-
fright.
We shall find what the weary soul
misses,
The place where our wrongs are
made right.
And the wrong that another has done
us,
1t will fade into naught in our sight;
1t is but our guilt in brothers tears
split
That only Gods love can make
right.

ANYTHING TO BEAT PIERCE.

1t is announced on the best of au-
thority from Portland that the Ore
gon Liquor Dealers association will
spend at least $4,000 in the counties
of Umatilla, Union and Morrow, to
defeat Walter Pierce for the joint
seantorship, because of his unrelent-
ing fight in favor of the local option
law as it now stands on the books.
The motto adopted by the associa-
ton, it is said, is Anything to beat
Pierce"
1t will be remembered that Senator
Pierce made the most determined and
capable stand for the local option law
that was made on any question in the
legislative session of 1905. All the
forces Of the opposition were rallied
against him, All possible kinds of
schemes, plots, trades, skulduggery,
bull-dozing and coercion were brought
into commission in the vain effort to

WHEELER AS CONGRESSMAN.

The late General Joseph Wheeler
was a bunch of alert, interchangeable
nerves and fibers. He never rested.
AS a member of congress from Ala
bama for seven terms he used to serve
lazy members as an example of indus
try. He kept five secretaries on the
go all the time hunting down facts
and figures for speeches. They say
he spread over more space in the Con-
gressional Record than any three men
in the house. Alabama was kept
flooded with his franked speeches.
1t is told that as the general was
riding about his home district one day
he overlook a mail carrier on foot.
He took the fellow up in his buggy
and asked him why he did not have
horse. Il did have one," he said,
"but old Wheeler sent down so many
documents from Washington that 1t
killed him in trying to deliver them"
And it is added that the carrier soon
afterward received a Gift of a new
horse,

OPEN THE MILLS.

THE TIME HAS COME FOR
PENDLETON TO TAKE AN INTER-
EST IN THE RESURRECTION OF
HER WoOLEN MILLS.
The East Oregonian has refrained
from making any public reference to
the wooden mill situation in hopes
that the unfortunate financial diff
culties which have beset the company
might be settled and the mills re-
opened. but the matter seems no
nearer solution now than when the
mills closed some weeks ago.
There is a field for the woolen
mills here. Pendleton is one of the
greatest primary wool markets in the
world and has made worldwide rep
utation largely through the excellence
of the output of the wooden mills and
she cannot afford to have this indus
try permanently suspend.
Its resurrection under favorable
conditions and on permanent busi-
ness basis means an expenditure of
at least $4,000 annually in this city
and vicinity for labor, fuel and wool.
This expenditure would increase as
the industry may be extended and
developed and Pendleton cannot, must
not sit idly by and see the mills re-
moved. closed permanently or curtail-
ed in their work in any way.
The Commercial association must
take up this matter. This pay roll
must not be allowed to slip away
from Pendleton without an effort or
the part of Pendleton. The public
spirit, public pride, and energetic ac'
ton of Pendleton citizens must come
to the rescue of this enterprise.
1t can be made to pay. 1t has yield
ed handsome profits in the past anC
has spread the name of Pendleton fa1
and wide over the world, and it mus
not be allowed 10 ule DIS d DuihN ou
candle, for the lack of just littl'
help, just little encouragement, jus
a little capital, all of which needed
commodities are to be found in plen
tiful supply in this city and commu
nifty.
The woolgrowers and the city ar
especially interested in this matter
The presence of the mills here will
give to Oregon wool worldwide rep
utation, and the pay roll Of its EN-
ployes is a source of business whicl
Pendleton people cannot afford t
overlook.

turn him from his determination to
defend the law, but all this array ot
forces fell flat in the face of his re-
lentless and aggressive fight.
The law stands on the statutes to-
day just as it does, because Walter
Pierce made that fight for it. for had
he not taken the lead and with his
eloquence and courage championed 1t,
it would have been cut to pieces and
its efficiency destroyed by the liquor
interests which had strong workers in
the state senate.
Now in order to rid the senate of
Pierce this great association of liquor
dealers of Oregon will flood this dis
trict with money, center its efforts
here and make Pierce campaign is
sue in the coming election in the east
ern oregon counties.
The people adopted the local option
law as 1t stands, by their direct votes.
Pierce supported and defended the
will and wishes of the people against
the devices of the liquor interests and
now, in order to be able to thwart the
will of the people at the next legisla-
ture the liquor interests will spend
any amount of money to defeat their
arch-enemy, Walter Pierce.
1t is barely possible that the peo-
pie who voted for this law and who
still believe in its beneficent provis-
ions will have something to say about
this. Will corruption funds and saloon
influence be able to dominate three
counties of intelligent, fearless, inde-
pendent voters?
The East Oregonian cannot believe

GALVESTON RESTORED.

Galveston's population in 1900 was
37,7S9. Today it is about $4,000. AT
the time of the flood she was. per
capita, one Of the two or three richest
cities in America, and still ranks very
high, millionaires being fairly com
mon for a place of her size. Proper
ty values are now about the same as
they were just before the disaster,
and there Is great activity in the real
estate market. Many people who went
away to live have returned, and many
new residents have come from the
north and the east. Galveston Is not
growing so fast as she would had the
flood never visited her. Nothing
short of complete destruction, how
ever, will stop her growth as a port

Strong elements OF both romance and
tragedy have attended the marriage Of

ding was pending, Mrs. Stockton's III
health being the only ObSttcle in the way
Of its consummation. When the aunts
condition took a severe turn for the worse
a few days age, she insisted upon the
speedy marriage of her niece. The we'd
ding took place in the Prince George, on
Thirtieth street, where Mrs Stockton has
her apartments.
Mrs. Stockton returned to Washington
the early part of last month after spend
ing several months at the seashore,
where she had gone for the benefit OF her
health Soon after her return it was
decided to sell the Stockton home. on p
street, and IL is thought that the effort
of moving to her present apartments had
much to do in causing the paralysis from
which the patient now suffers. When
