THE GROWTH OF TRAFFIC.

In considering a local train between
any point in eastern Oregon or Idaho
and Portland, the one vital thing to
be estimated is the inevitable growth
in traffic which will come in future
and which has been enjoyed in large
measure in the past few years.
All the way from Salt Lake City to
Portland there is a constantly in
creasing passenger and freight traf-
fic. New settlements along the line
of railway and in the interior have
multiplied ticket sales. New towns
have sprung up in what was once
desert, people are making regular
trips over what was only a few years
ago sagebrush wilderness and in every
mile of the distance from Salt Lake
City to Portland, there has been a de-
cided increase in both freight and
passenger traffic during the past four
years.
In Baker, Union, Umatilla and Nor
row counties are specific illustrations
of this fact On Burnt river, in Pow
der river valley, in Grand Ronde val
ley. at Echo. Hermiston, Irrigon and
in the interior sections tributary to
these places, absolutely new settle
ments have been made and thousands
of people are swarming back and
forth where the land was idle only
three and four years ago.
It is only logical and fair to ask
what has been done to meet this in
creased traffic? The increase is ap-
parent. 1t cannot be denied. No in
dustry in the country more readily
recognizes the increase of this traf-
fic nor enjoys a more lucrative re-
turn from it than the railroads, and
yet it is with reluctance that any de-
cisive step is taken to meet the in
crease.
There is no doubt about local
train from Salt Lake City to Portland
paying from the first day. On small
er measure perhaps, local train
from Walla Walla or from Huntington
to Portland would pay. Such train
must come in time. 1t is just as in
evitable as new stores, new imple-
ment houses, new hardware establish
ments, new country roads and othei
improvements to meet this increase
in settlement.

RICHEST QUEEN IN EUROPE.

When in June next the king and
queen of Denmark pay their first visit
to England we shall have an oppor-
tunity of seeing the wealthiest queen
IN her own right-and the tallest.
1t will doubtless be remembered
that Frederick VIII. succee eded to the
throne of Denmark at the beginning
of last year, after the sudden death
of King Christian, the beloved, father
of Queen Alexandra. 1t is now 3S
years since King Frederick married
Queen Louise, a daughter of Charles
XIV. of Sweden. From her maternal
grandfather, Prince Frederick of the
Netherlands, her majesty inherited
three millions, and she was also left
huge fortune by her father. Fur
thermore, the yealth of Queen Louise
has been considerably increased since
her marriage by careful management
and judlcious estment.-London

PENDLETON MAY SHINE.

In a communication to President
Rowe of the Portland rose show and
fiesta to be held on June 21 and %,
William McMurray, general passenger
agent Of the o. r. & NJ, urges that
party Of Umatilla Indians from Pen
dleton, be made a feature in the
fiesta and parade.
This is an excellent suggestion and
IS one which can probably be realized.
twenty-five Umatilla Indians array
ed in vivid hues, would make an ex-
cellent showing in the rose fiesta and
parade and would advertise Pendleton
immensely.
Special rates will be in effect for
the fiesta and It is hoped that Paul
Showaway and his band Of Umatillas
can be induced to go to Portland
They would stand a chance for some
OF the handsome prizes and would be
a drawing number for Pendleton.
This fiesta is going to be one of the
finest events on the Pacific coast this
season and large number Of Pendle-
ton and Umatilla county people will
attend. It would be good for Pendle'
ton Indians to pull down one or two
of the leading prizes.

Hurrah, fer de halcyon days of June!

While de bugs and de bees all over me

Meath a tree on n sunny day;

An thank de Lord I don't have ter

ODDITIES OF GREAT MEN.

Robert Louis Stevenson's favorite
recreation was playing the flute, in
order, as he said, to tune up his ideas.
Robert Browning could not sit still.
With the constant shuffling of his
feet holes We're worn in the carpet.
Longfellow enjoyed walking only
at sunrise or sunset, and he said his
best thoughts came to him at these
times.
Hawthorne always washed his
hands before reading a letter from
his wife. He delighted in poring
over old advertisements in newspaper
files.
Darwin had no respect for books
as books and would cut a big vol
ume i'm two for convenience in handl-
ing, or he would tear out leaves he
required for reference.
oliver Wendell Holmes, though he
despised superstition and was a skill
full doctor, used to carry a horse
CHESTNUT in one pocket and a potato
in another, to ward off rheumatism.
Joaquin Miller nailed all his chairs
to the wall.
Edgar Allen Poe slept with his cat,
and was inordinately proud of his
feet.
Daudet wore his eyeglasses when
asleep.
Thackeray used to lift his hat khen-
ever he passed the house in which he
wrote "Vanity Fair"
Alexander Dumas. the younger,
bought new painting every time he
had new book published.

LITTLE BY LITTLE.

No one has ever accomplished great
things who hasn't first accomplished
a great many little things. A great
success is naturally and inevitably the
result of many little successes. An
accumulation of many little successes
enables one to make giant strides
later on.
A man doesn't do anything great in
day; not even commit a great crime.
A man who robs the cash box doesn't
often do it on impulse; he has been
allowing evil thoughts to accumulate
in his mind, little by little, until he is
overpowered.
Just as surely. as little drops of
water make the ocean, so the little
successes of today are fitting one for
greater success by and by.

Industries, make Pendleton what she
is
Without the surrounding country
Pendleton would not be on the map,
She could not stand alone. 1t is her
rich territory her substantial support
from the wheat and stock raising dis
tricts which make this city possible,
so there is a moral obligation on part
of the city and of every city to heed
the demands of the country which sur
rounds and supports it.

thinking and foremost citizen of
Athena has written to the East Ore

Wheat Raiser" and hundreds of
other farmers like him send their
boys to this city every week of the
year on business or pleasure and
these farmers are interested in know
ing what sort of conditions confront
their boys in tie county seat.
These farmers have a perfect right
to ask these questions. They have
a perfect right to demand of Pendle-
ten the best possible condition, for are
not these farmers, by their enterprises
furnishing Pendleton her bank ac-
counts and her business volume?
These farmers have a right to ask
why Pendleton permits tinhorns, and
men of other even less desirable oc-
cupations to congregate here as as
sociates for the farmer boys who visi
the city.
Pendleton cannot afford to over
look this query of the farmer. She IL
making strides in civic improvement
she is building up schools and acade
mics, but if she neglects the vita
thing. if she permits herself to be
come morally unwholesome, he

POLITICS AND POLITICIANS.

1t is reported that Senator Proctor
Of Vermont will shortly resign his
seat in favor of his son, who is now
governor of the Green Mountain
state, and who bids fair to become as
prominent in public life as his distin-
guished father.
Indications are that the coming
fight for the republican nomination
for governor in Kansas will he be-

CHAPTER XIX.

SINGULAR colony II was Of
~ which the s~hipwrecked party
IA found themselves now to be
members. The ST. Christophe
had left Rochelle three weeks before
with four small ~consorts conveying 500
soldiers to help the struggling colony
on the st. Lawrence. The squadron
had become separated, however, and
the governor was pursuing his way
alone In the hope of picking up the
others In the river. Aboard he had a
company Of the regiment of Quercy,
the STAFF of his own household, st. VAL
Her, the new bishop Of Canada, with
several of his attendants; three Recol-
let friars, five Jesuits bound for the
fatal Iroquois mission, half a dozen
ladies on the way to Join their hus-
bands, two Ursuline nuns and ten or
twelve gallants whom love of adven-
ture and the hope of lettering their
fortunes had drawn r the seas
There was peace between England
and France at present, though feeling
ran high between Canada and New
York, the French believing. and with
some justice, that the, English colo
nists were whooping on the demons
who attacked them. Ephraim and his
men were therefore received hospita-
bly, on board, though the ship was SO
crowded that they had to sleep wher-
ever they could find cover and space

man who is dying!' cried De Catinat
In a voice as fierce as his own.
Before a man who is dead" said
Amos Green solemnly.
As he spoke the old mans face had
relaxed, his thousand wrinkles had
been smoothed suddenly out as though
an invisible hand had passed over
them. and his head fell back against
the mast. Adele remained m~otionless,
with her arms still clasped round his
neck and her cheek pressed against his
shoulder. She had tainted.
De Catinat raised his wife and bore
her down to the cabin Of n of the la
dies who had already shown them
some kindness. A brief order was Civ
en- that the old merchant should be
buried In the river that night, and
then, save for a sailmaker who fas-
tened the canvas round him, mankind
had done It's last for Theophile Catinat.
With the survivors, however, 1t was
different, and when the troops were all
disembarked they were mustered In a
little group upon the deck, and an Off
Ger OF the governors suit decided upon
what should be done with them. He
was a portly, good humored, ruddy
checked man, but De Catinat saw with
apprehension hat the Franciscan friar
walked by his side as he advanced
along the deck and exchanged a few
whispered remarks with him.

She had settled lower and lower in
the water, and suddenly, with a sound
Of rending planks, she thrust down
her bows like a diving waterfowl, her
stern few up into the air, and with a
long sucking noise she shot down
Bwtfter and swffter, until the leaping
waves closed over her high poop Ian

round again and made backward as
fast as willing arms could pull it. But
all was quiet at the scene Of the dis

age was left upon the surface to show
where the Golden Rod had found her
last harbor. For a long quarter of an
hour they pulled round and round in
the moonlight, but no glimpse could
they see Of the Puritan seaman, and at
last, when in spite Of the bailers the
water was washing round their ankles,
they put her head about once more
and made their way I'm silence and
with heavy hearts to their dreary
Island of refuge.
Desolate as it was, it was their only
hope now, for the lead was increasing.

not be kept afoat long.
The cliff which faced them was pre-
cipitous, and 1t glimmered and spar

In the center, however, on a level with

peared to be a huge followed out cave.

Golden Rod had, in SCATTERING herself,
aislodged a huge bowlder, and so,
amid her W ruin, prepared a refuge
FOR those who had trusted themselves
to her. This cavern was of the rich
est emerald green, light and clear at
the edges, but toning away into the
deepest puppies and blues at the back.
But 1t was not the beauty of this
grotto, nor was it the assurance Of
rescue, which brought a cry of joy
and of wonder from every lip, but it
was that, seated upon an ice bowlder
