The blocking of street cross
ings BY Great Northern freight
trains have become an intolerable
nuisance. The night trains are
The worst offenders. It is no un-
common thing for train crews to
keep both or, ssings blocked from
80 minutes to one hour at a time.
Ladies have been forced to wait in
the chill night air for the cross
ings to be opened. The company
does not countenance such work
but the train crews are careless. i

RAILROAD FACILITIES.

Gradually the question of adequate
railroad facilities in oregon is being
worked out. There are many things
to adjust, many things to add, many
things to change, in the matter of
railroad service in the state, and it Is
hoped that the railroads and the Ore
gon railroad commission work har-
moniously and avoid litigation and
heavy court expenses.
Although all of the things demand
ed by the railroad commission and
the people may be needed, yet it
would be impossible to get them all
at once, because of the fact that the
business of the state has outgrown
the capacity of the roads, and the
factories of the United States are
crowded to the limit in turning out
new equipment.
1t is believed by people familiar
with the situation that the o. R. &
n. would place the Portland-Pendle-
ton or Portland-Huntingto local
train in service if cars and engines
were to be had to supply this addi-
tional demand. Neither cars nor en-
gines are available now, and neither
the railroad commission nor the peo-
pie of Oregon can secure them faster
than the o. r. & y. because the fac
tories cannot turn them out any
faster than at present.
But there are things which the
companies can do on short notice and
the commission will perhaps insist
upon these things being done. 1t is
possible for the railroads to furnish
good depot facilities, clean coaches
more prompt train service, more re-
liable train reports, clean cars fol
heavy local travel and other minol
needs.
It is the duty of the railroads t
furnish all these and it should MOI
be necessary for a railroad commits
sion TO order them for the public.
But the addition of entirely nev
trains to the service is a larger sub
ject and while it seems easily attain
ed by the public, yet 1t is accompanied
with lot of difficulty, especial!
when cars and engines are as scare
as at present. II the matter gets int,
the courts, as it surely will, the rail
roads will not be forced to do i'm
possible things.
If the state OF Oregon or the gov
ernment owned the railroads then tn
people could have such service a
they needed without recource t
commissions, courts or hearings.

SUNDAY SCHOOLS OF WORLD.

Delegates TO the number of 1900
and representing % countries, and
nearly all evangelical churches, held a
convention recently Mt Rome for the
purpose of discussing the progress of
sunday schools throughout the world,
and to compare notes as to methods,
ways and means.
Ii was the fifth of these worlds
Sunday school conventions and re-
suited in the formation of worlds
Sunday school association, a perma-
nent body. of which Rev. F. B. Meyer
of London, is to be the field presi-
dent and DR.. George w. Bailey, of
Philadelphia, chairman of the eXecu-
tive committee.
The convention was welcomed to
Rome by Miss Italia Caribaldi, grand
daughter of the patriot, and since her
youth a Sunday school worker in
Rome. Her father, General Riccotti
Garibaidi, was among the speakers.
I'VE men," he said, have formed the
unity of our country, politically and
geographically. 1t is for you to form
the moral unity of Italy"
According to reports made at the
convention there are 14,OOO,OOO
American Sunday school children in
the churches represented at the con-
vention, and some 100000 in Great
Britain, of whom 2,250,00O are in Free
church schools. In no other countries
have Sunday schools attained any
thing approaching such development.
In Germany there are 100000 sunday
school children, in France $1,000, in
Spain $500. Belgium, with $500, has
not as many sunday school scholars
as Bulgaria, with 5000. The African
delegations reported 1881 in Egypt
and 5000 in Tunis. India reported
100000; Japan $4,000.
The next convention will be held ir
1910. 1t is not yet decided in what
city. AS preliminary to it Sunday
school cruise around the world /:
planned to start from New York II
December 1908. In connection witt
the cruise conferences are to be helt
in Egypt, India China, Japan anC

UNRELIABLE PRESS REPORTS.

After all the protestations of Asso-
ciated Press papers, that that news
gathering and editorial-writing cor
poration faithfully serves the public,
regardless of personal or selfish in
terests, at all times, it is rather anus.
ing to outsiders to hear the Portland
Oregonian and the Spokane Spokes-
man Review, the two leading Associ-
ated Press members of the northwest,
accusing each other of sending out
biased and unreliable reports to the
association.
Each of these big dailies accuses
the other of sending out highly color
ed reports, in fact, untrue reports,
of the proceedings of the Spokane
railroad rate case and hearing and in
summing up the matter the Orego-
nian says:
Spokane is sent out by the Spokes-
man. Review and knowledge of this
fact compels the Oregonian to send a
special representative into Spokane
territory whenever an event of great
Importance is to be reported"
And the Spokesman-Review an
swers back spitefully, ditto"
Here are two of the leading papers
of the west, two which are perhaps
read more extensively in the northwest
than any other Associated Press pa
pers. and yet neither will trust the
others honesty in sending out, not
private reports, for special service, but
the regular Associated Press reports,
taken by hundreds OF leading papers
throughout the country and depended
upon by a large part of the public
for reliable news.
Really it begins to dawn on the
reading public that the Associated
Press trust is one of the same ole
brand of trusts, bent on deceiving the
public to further private ends ant
swell personal fortunes. Hereafter
| the news reports in these big dailie!
will be taken with a measure of pre-
caution, since they openly accuse
each other of unreliability.
Meanwhile the struggling little
news associations such as the Scripps
Press Publishing company and other!
growing up in opposition to the Asso
public the unbiased truth, fearless
and unafraid.

POOR PROSPEROUS PEOPLE.

The receipts of the government for
the fiscal year ending June 80, were
about sS5,000,000 in excess of the
disbursements as we'll. 1t shows the
finances of the government are in
very good snaps but as somebody has
had to pay not only the excess of re-
ceipts over. disbursements but also
the disbursements as well, 1t shows
that the financial condition of the
people who foot the bills must be
pretty good also or they would not be
able to bear the drain on their re-
sources. There are always two sides
to an excess revenue proposition
which should be considered before toe
much growing is INDUCED in and the
side of the man who puts up the
money receives, as a usual thing, the
least part of it, although he is entitled
to the most of it.-Boise Capita

HOPEFUL FOR sToCKMEN.

The amicable settlement Of the
forest reserve difficulties between
forest rangers and Grant county
stockmen, when these difficulties
were taken directly to Secretary of
Agriculture Wilson, over the heads
of local forest reserve officials. Is a
hopeful sign for oregon stockmen.
The intent and aim Of the range
allotment regulations for forest re-
serves are honest and practical, but
the infinitesimal number of minor
rules and regulations to which people
are subjected in dealing with local
forestry officials, often work injus-
tice and wrong upon deserving stock
men.
The object of the regulations Is to
give resident, land-owning stockmen
first choice; people owning land ad-
taoent to reserves and occupying their
bomes in the range districts are set
apart as a special class to be pro-
tected first Seventy-five per cent OF
the stockmen occupying the eastern
division OF the Blue mountains re-
serve IN Umatilla and Grant counties
are of this class and there Is plenty

Is YOUR LOVE TRUE?

Unless you can think when the song
is done,
No other is soft in the rythm;
Unless you can feel when left by one,
That all men else go with him;
Unless you can know, when unpraised
by his breath,
That your beauty itself wants prov
ing;
Unless you can swear For life! for
DEATH"

Unless you can muse in crowd all
day
On the absent face that fixed you;
Unless you can love as the angels
may,
With the breadth of heaven be-
twixt you;
Unless you can dream that his faith
is fast,
Through behooving and unbehoov-
ing;
Unless you can die when the dream
Is past

of range for all these resident stock
men to be given their choice of al
lotments near their homes, and where
their stock have always ranged.
If this class of stockmen do not get
justice from local officials they should
go directly to the department of agri-
culture with it. That department
sees only the main object and intent
of the forestry system and knows
nothing of the petty jealousies or
petty im-feelings between settlers and
local forestry officials.

THE EXODUS.

Nothing else indicates the prosper
ity of a people so fully as the amuse-
ments and pleasures which they en-
joy.
No other city in eastern Oregon
sends such a large delegation of peo-
pie to the seacoast every year dur
ing the hot season as Pendleton. Not
even Walla walla measures up to
this city in this respect, with all her
alleged advantages over Pendleton.
This movement to the coast, this
generous patronage of the recreation
and health resorts is the surest evil
dence of the substantial and we'll
founded prosperity of Pendleton.
This movement is not confined to
the business men and their families.
II is not confined to the professional
class nor to the wealthy farmers.
Every class in Pendleton is represent
ed in this exodus of the summer
months. Pendleton sends represen-
tatives OF every class living in the
city to the seacoast every year. The
movement is stronger every year and
this indicates that Pendleton would
patronize resorts nearer home IL they
were fitted up with all modern con-
veniences, and made more attractive.

CRUELTY OF MAHOUTS.

"Kipling and other writer's talk
about the kindness that the Indian
mahouts, or drivers, lavish on their
elephants" said a missionary, but
as a matter of fact no overworked old
cart horse suffers half the cruelty
that falls to the Indian elephants lot.
The mahout sits on the elephants
head, goad or ancus in his hand.
With this goad he prods the elephant,
and, though the prod is gentle, the
animal responds with wonderful alac-
rity. But do you know why? 1t is
because on the elephants forehead,
where the goad may reach it handily,
an open sore is kept The sore,
prodded, causes the elephant exquis-
lite pain, and he naturally obeys with
strange readiness the man who makes
him suffer so. Whenever you hear a

And speak in different tongues, and

Shall cross, escaping wreck; defying

And, all unconscious'y, shape every

That, one day, out of iarknnsS. they
shall meet
And read lifes meaning in each

And two shall walk some narrow way
of life
So nearly side by side that, should
one turn
Ever so little space to right or left,
They needs must stand acknowledged
face to face.
And yet, with wistful eyes that never
meet.
With cropping hands that never clasp;
and lips
Calling in vain to ears that never
hear;
days
And die unsatisf,ed. And that is fate

Portland is rejoicing in the pros
pect of cheap coal within the next
year If the plans of the Coal Mining
company carry, a flve-foot vein hav-
ing been struck near Mt. Scott Mills.
Referring to the strike, s. L. Brooks,
of The Dalles. said to a Chronicle
reporter of that place: "My father
and | surveyed at this spot in the year
Of 1860, but the groupings were not
promising and we abandoned it." If
Mr.. Brooks could have cast glance
forward and seen the situation in the
year 1907, he would certainly have
hung on to the least indication Of
coal and become a millionaire.
We notice that the trouble about
our useful efforts is that they are so
apt to he more useful to some one else
than 10 ourselves.
