HOSPITALITY.

There is a legend of Lippanus,
rich Grecian husbandman of Athens,
who took a vow to always practice
what he deemed the best of the civic
virtues, Hospitality.
So he placed a slave on hill near
his elegant villa to watch for the ap-
proach of strangers on the great high
ways leading to Athens.
At the approach of a stranger Lip
panus would call in all his servants,
gather up his family and go with his
gorgeous retinue to meet the pilgrim,
no matter whether it was a foreign
prince or an humble student travel
ing to the Grecian capital. Lippanus
would take the traveller by the hand
and welcome him to Athens. He
would apologize for the busy people
of the city who were engrossed in their
duties, and would say that he spoke
for the city when he welcomed the
stranger to Athens.
In this way the hospitality of Ath-
ems became famous.
Every westerner is a Lippanus
ready and glad to meet the stranger
with a smile and a handclasp. One
hospitable man can make the stranger
feel at home in the city.

THE MODERN PUZZLE.

The success of local option in Wal
Iowa county during the past two years
has encouraged the local option forces
of Union county to try hard for a
dry" county in 1908.
If the Mormon vote stands solidly
for local option, as it is believed it
will, Union county can be carried for
local option. But the Mormon vote
is a puzzle.
While the Mormons are strictly
church people, yet they are extremely
thrifty and it is doubtful whether the
business interests" in the church
will permit the religious and moral
sentiment to stand for local option.
The Mormon vote now holds the
balance of power in Union county and
every effort will be made to enlist
it on the side of prohibition.
In their own state of Utah the Nor
mons do not countenance saloons,
but where they have scattered out in
to oregon and Idaho they have rather
drifted with the general sentiment,
and the position of the Union county
vote is therefore extremely doubtful.
Union county is one of the strongest
Mormon counties outside of Utah.

A KITCHEN ICONOCLAST.

DR.. Woods Hutchinson of Portland,
in an article on poison Foods" in the
September issue of McClure's maga-
zine, knocks the props from under
nearly every common food which man.
kind uses.
Beans he brands as rank poison,
peas are but little less fatal, cheese is
a menace to the stomach, peanuts are
filled with poison virus which devel-
ops headache, collie and a dozen other
ailments and lastly the toothsome
strawberry for which hundreds of
thousands of dollars are expended an
nually, is branded as a form of poison
wrapped in deceptive garb of red.
This iconoclast of the kitchen goes
about knocking over all the favor
ite dishes of the human family and
casting into the gutter some of the
most appetizng mixtures ever con-
ceived by domestic science for the edi-
tlcdIlOn OF man.
AS a last cruel bluw to the gods of
the larder, he brands eggs and milk
as rank poisons to certain propor-
ton of human stomachs and consigns
to the sewer crabs, clans, Holsters,
oysters and salmon.
Heaven help the cooks! What is
left?
But there is a ray of hope left.
He does not condemn fried onions, ba-
con, sour dough biscuits or milk
gravy. At least the human family
can linger along on these poison-free
blessings until something new Is cre-
ated in the breakfast food laboratory
at Battle Creek.

KEEP MONEY AT HOME.

Every close observer of the money
market and especially nearly every
banker in the country, admits that
money will be tight next year,
which is a presidential year.
So it is a good idea to keep money
and make investments close TO home.
tilla and Morrow counties are har-
intentions said in an interview In a
Portland paper recently that Una
tilla and Morrom counties are har-
vesting a s5,OO0,O00 wheat crop and
that the bulk of that money would be
invested in Portland within the next
year.
Let us hope not. Let us not take
the risk. Let US not plunge.
Portland real estate is now excess
sively high and every suburb has been
sold over and over several times and
still prices are soaring. Some day the
limit is going to be reached and let
us hope that the limit is not reached
while some Umatilla or Morrow coun-
ty man holds the property.
Let us not invest all our surplus in
real estate already sky-high, on the
eve of a presidential year, which is
proverbially a bad investment year
Let us think before we take the risk
The money will be much safer in
Umatilla county banks than in uncer-
tain Portland real estate.
True, many men have made good
money in Portland real estate in the
past three years. But the property
has been turned over and over until
II is now at high water mark. The
limit will soon be reached. Let the
other fellow hold the sack.

SETTING UP THE LADDER.

In classifying the Umatilla Indians,
in separating the good husbandmen
from the bad, in recognizing the ca
pable members of the tribe, the United
States government is setting up lad
der of enlightenment up which the
better Indians will climb.
There are good and bad Indians,
Just as there are good and bad whites.
There are dozens of Umatilla Indians
whom Pendleton merchants would
much rather have owing them thap
like number of white customers whom
they could name.
There are many members of the
tribe who are sober, enlightened, pro-
gressive and honest from nature,
They are conscientious men and wo-
men, having good minds and clear
conception OF right and honesty.
These Indians should be given
chance to climb up the ladder Of en-
lightenment.
There are certain other members of
the tribe who are brutal, low, cruel,
and ignorant because they cannot
help it and they don't care. They
are instinctively savage and no amount
Of training or association will change
them. They are doomed to fill the
grave Of a savage.
To this latter class the protecting
hand Of the government must be per-
petually extended. They cannot stand
alone, morally. And the association
with whites meaner and lower thar
themselves, does not tend to elevate
this latter class.
The people Of Pendleton should co
operate with the government in max
ing the good Indians better. 1t is
credit to the citizenship of thi
county to have 1t recorded now, II
the Indian department, that the Una
tilla tribe contains some Of the mos
enlightened and intelligent Indians Il
the United States.
It will be still more credit to ou
people to have 1t said that a sti
greater proportion of the tribe

1t is not such a bad advertisement
for the outlook in Pendleton to have
another large lumber company open
q yard in the city, with already three
large lumber yards here. Lumber
companies are not addicted to making
mistakes in opening yards in new
territory and the company now hav-
ing tbs city in view is one of the
largest and most conservative in the
northwest. There will be plenty of
building here when lumber prices
come down In reach.

DEFENDS IDLE RICH"
PROFESSOR jerks SAYS TERM Is
MUCH ABUSED.

NEW YORK. February 16.-President
Roosevelt and Cecil Rhodes were cited to-
day by Prof. J. w. jerks Of Cornell Uni
versity In an address before the League for
Political Education as men whose lives
have disproved the oft-heard remark that
no man can be both rich and honest. He
declared that some great fortunes are prop
eriy the rewards for services actually rem
dered to society.
who could place q money value on tho
service Of Theodore Roosevelt in putting
an END to the Russo-Japanese WARP he
asked "Such a man Is surely worth more
than q million dollars to the world. and
the world has had the full value Of tho
fortune he inherited.
How could you put limit on the value
OF the service Cecil Rhodes gave Great
Britain in establishing a British empire in
South Afrfca2 The winner of a great for
tune always Is q man of power, and he
makes his power felt largely because the
great mass Of humanity merely drift
through life"
He declared that this very fact explodes
the theory OF the socialist. Men who have
the elements of leadership would rule the
community just as effectively under q So
ctalistic regime as they do under the pres
ent conditions Of government Prof. jerks
maintained that 'the idle rich Is much
abused designation. He believes that there
are really very few persons in this country
who can properly be SO classed. On the
other hand, he declared that possessors of
great fortunes often use them wisely for
the benefit Of the public.
