TIE GIST OF THE MEETING.

The bes, thing that happened in
the legislative meeting here and the
excursion 10 Walla vana and Weston,
vas not the inspection of the jute mill
or the normal school; it was not the
royal welcome in wala Walla nor
the pleasant visit with faculty ami
students at Weston.
All of these things were good. They
all enter into the benefits to be de-
rived from the excursion. But none
Of them can be classed as the very
best feature of the event.
In the opinion of the East Oregon
ian. the best thing which happened
in the entire program. from its first
inception to the last echo of its bene-
dicticn. was the promise of the gov
ernor Of Washington to stand by Ore
gon and assist in opening the Column
bla river.
For years Oregon has borne the
brunt of the open river fight while
Washington received as much benefit
as this state from the results.
At the banquet in this city last eve
ming, Governor Mead pledged his
earnest support of measure looking
toward cooperation between oregon.
Washington and Idaho in joint work
of orening the Columbia and Snake
river to the fartherest limits of navi-
CATION.
While a jute mill for Oregon, and
larger facilities for Weston are de.
voutedly to be wished. yet it seems
that this pledge from Washington to
share in the great work of opening VI
this river highway, is the real gist OF
the entire meeting.
oregon can now enter into the work
with greater enthusiasm, since the ex-
pense and burden will be shared by
hel daughter state on the north.
The extension of the portage road
and the deepening of the Columbia
river will not now be so grudgingly
prosecuted since the glad hand oi
Washington reaches across the border
beckoning Oregon to renewed enthus-
issn and promising material help ir
the great work in which both state:
are equally interested.

HORROR OF NEEDLESS NOISES

1t is the noedlessness of most noises
that renders them insufferable. Yon
sleep very we'll through the roar OF
a wintry storm, but ii some one has
forgot an to fasten a blind, and II
begins 20 bang, then you're lost; you
might as we'll get mp and locate that
blind and fasten it first as last The
manifold noises of your steamers
plunge through the night, with the
perpetual wash of the sea unite in a
lullaby to which the worst conscience
sinks into rcpOse; but a snore from
the next state room recalls the menu
ory of all ones sins. The rush and
leap and incessant but varied grind
and clang of the sleeping car become
soothing at last but a radiator be-
ginning to fizz and click after tho
steam has been turned off seems to
leave tile would-be sleeper no recourse
hut suicide; il YOU could get at the
second engineer and leave him well

WEALTH IN POLITICS.

The suit brought by Richard Croker
against a London magazine for inti-
mating that his money was obtained
by crooked methods serves to call at
tention to the fabulous wealth acquir-
ed in politics. says the Minneapolis
Journal. There is Timothy D. Sulli-
van, known as big Tim," of New
York. Sullivan has held one office
and owned one saloon and today has
an income of s150.OOO annually.
In Pennsylvania Israel w. Durham
is another example of the rapid rise
of wealth in public office. Durham
held one place, that of state insurance
commissioner, which paid good sal
airy and considerable fees.
When the exasperating reform cam
paign in Philadelphia came on 1t wa
shown that Durham was silent part

\ SEA LYRIC.

There is no music that man has
heard
Like the voice of the minstrel sea,
Whose major and minor chords are
fraught
With infinite mystery,
For the sea is a harp, and the winds
of God
Play over his rhythmic breast
And bear on the sweep of their mighty
wings
The song of vast unrest.
There is no passion that man has
sung
Like the love of the deep-souled
sea,
Whose tide responds to the moons
soft light
With marvellous melody,
For the sea is harp, and the wind:
of God
Play over his rhythmic breast
And bear on the sweep of their mighty
wings
The song of vast unrest.
There is no sorrow that man ha.
known
Like the grief of the wordless main
Whose Titan bosom forever throbs
With an untranslated pain,
For the sea is harp, and the wind,
Of God
Play over his rhythmic breast
And bear on the sweep of their might!

COMMERCIAL NEEDS

Recently Il, Is. Miller, general
freight agent OF the o. r. X ~, was
in Pendleton for breakfast and was
shocked upon being informed by the
walters at his hotel that it was simply
impossible TO secure the two dozen
eggs ordered for his breakfast.
This Information opened up line
Of inquiry, in which it was shown
that the o. r. & y. company is now
transporting butter, cream, eggs, ba-
con, lard and other farm produce into
oregon from the states of Utah, Ne
braska, Idaho and Kansas.
Utah cream passes through Pendle-
ton every day to Walla Walla and
spokane. Nebraska bacon and lard
from Omaha are unloaded in Pendle-
ton every day and packed eggs from
Kansas are shipped into this state
every week to supply the local de-
mand.
And this in a state having such
magnificent resources, such opportu-
mites for dairying, poultry raising,
hog raising and butter making.
Really. the greatest development
which awaits Oregon and especially
the irrigated sections of eastern Ore.
gon will be seen in the small diversi-
fled farms. 1t is astonishing that
these common articles of produce
should be So scarce and high in this
state.
1t is astonishing that Oregon does
not produce more of these common
commodities when the markets are
CRYING for them and the public i.
compelled to use the packed and i'm.
ported article from distant states.

THE ART OF PLEASING.

Somebody said 1t is better to be
beautiful than good. But it is certain
ly better to be good than ugly. 1t Ii
better to be charming. A woman
cannot charm because she wants to.
A man is not agreeable because he
sets out TO be. Quite the reverse. In
effort is failure. The proper effect
must. like repartee, be spontaneous
and unpremeditated. 1t must be ra-
dated naturally, like light and love.
Books there are that pretend ta
tell how It is done. They do so quite
as completely as grasshoppers teach
entomology. The ability to chorm,
ia be agreeable, to entertain perfectly
and to be perfectly entertaining, Is an
art apprehensihle only through in
fluences generally prenatal but always
prolonged. The mere technique Is SC
volatile that it must be inhaled. Like
:he MAYFAIR intonation, little by little
II must be absorbed.
Kings and thugs may abash the am
ateur in the art of pleasing hut tho
artist is at home with them. He puts
himself in harmony with them. In the
ability to do that is the whole secret
Of the art Of pleasing.-Edgar Saltu'

Kansas City Markets.

Stock Yards, Kansas City. Mo-, Tues
day, July 31st. 1906.
Naturally the decline of Is to 30
cents on beef steers last week cut
down the receipts this week, but
Chicago was an exception yesterday,
81 900 cattle being centersd there.
The market would have ruled steady
here but for this weakening influence,
as the supply was several Thousand
below recent Mondays at this point:
sales ranged from steady to 10 cents
lower. The run today is small for
IL 900 head, but the market has a
weak tone, few choice heifers sell
ing stronger. An extra large percent
age of the receipts just now are kill
ing kinds, and OF these the big per-
eentage is good weight steers, both
fed and grass, while the hot term
weather does not call for extra large
numbers of cattle that will make the
heavier cuts. The lighter weight
animals from the strictly range coun-
try, except from the quarantine dis
tricts, are still lacking, although
their advent in considerable numbers
! is expected each week. The supply
of stockers and feeders is small, and
the quality undesirable. Top beet
steers Yesterday sold at $3.50. for
| fourteen loads of Nebraska fed Colo
RADIO steers. top today 1915, yearlings
at S5 so, bulk of the fed steers $500

day, few fieshy feeders at S4.O0 to

1915.
Hogs are going down rapidly this
week, market off 3 to - cents today,
top &c. so, TOR weights below 200 pounds,
bulk of sales 6.35 to S6.45. The main
competition is on bacon hogs and light
weights for the fresh meat trade,
all of those that viii have to go into
the packers cellars getting the big
gest decline every day, in fact medium
to rough. heavy hogs are 10 cents be-
low the top now, and extremists pre-
dict still worse fate for them. Not
many heavy hogs are included here,
however, average weight for July
this year of all the hogs received was
204 pounds. Supply today is surpris-
ingly heavy, at $4,000 head, run for
July 100000 head, against Isl, 900 last
July, prices 80 cents cheaper year
ago than now.
The big drop in mutton prices late
ly has also reduced the supply of that
class of stock, run 1900 today, all
natives, some ewes at S4.75, wethers
at S5.75, wethers at S.. 90, lambs ST 25
to $3.50. These prices may not be
quite the limit in each class. Several
strings of Utah feeders sold yesterday
at S4.60 to S4S5, weighing from so to
90 pounds. Not much Improvement
in the market is expected, in view of
the large numbers of Utah and Idaho
sheep and lambs now about ready to
come to market.
