THE M'MANUS VERDICT.

The verdict of trial jury acquitting
John P. McManus of the charge of
murder, in the killing of Robert Estes
in this city, is not justification of
murder.
1t is an index to the public senti-
ment among the substantial farmers
of Umatilla county from whom the
jury was selected. 1t is an expression
of solid, thoughtful men on the prac-
tices which have been tolerated in
Pendleton. in the past. 1t is a warm
ing to those who follow such prac-
tices in future. 1t says that a man
may defend himself against robbery
whether committed on the lonely
highway, or in a gilded and mirrored
saloon on main thoroughfare.
1t has been an unfortunate and re-
grettable affair all the way through.
Unfortunate that young man should
waste his life in following the path
way of vice and crime and regrettable
that any other man should be forced
to take a human life.
1t should be substantial warning
both to the representatives of the class
to which Estes belonged and to Nc
Manus and other men who patronize
saloons and make a practice of drink
ing and associating with that class Of
company.
OF course moralizing is tabooed by
certain classes of people everywhere.
1: is useless to preach or sermonize
But a lesson is a lesson.
1t is no trivial matter to take a hu-
man life. 1t is no trivial matter to
follow such a vocation and engage in
such practices as will justify a jury
in acquitting a man of killing his fell
bowman.
In the light of all these facts, this
case should serve as a warning and
moral. The people of Umatilla coun-
ty have been called upon to pay sew
eral thousand dollars costs in the trial.
And why? Where is the source?
What was the cause? Who is to
blame?
Any school boy can answer in
dozen words.

into the city not now, perhaps, but
they should have the power. II the
taxpayers empower the commission to
install the new system in the coming
charter election it will save the ex-
pense of another charter election in
a few years, because the water ques-
ton is crowding upon Pendleton and
must be answered, just as the school
building question was answered.
The water system will be self-sup-
porting and will not increase the
property tax. The present crude water
system is making a profit and paying
heavy expenses besides, and the grav-
ity system would do even more.
Let us put that into the new char
ter whether we want to install it now
or not. 1t will save another election
IN a short time.

RUBBER FOR PAVING.

Probably no substance is adapted
to greater variety of uses than rub
ber, but its applications are restrict
ed by the limited supply and high
cost. Among the purposes for which
it has great advantages but is not
likely to be extensively employed Is
that of paving roadways. A rubber
pavement laid at a London railway
station in 1881 was in 1902 worn
down to five-eighths of an inch in
its thinnest place. Notwithstanding
the scarcity of materials, the cost
was less than three times as great as
that of wood, and its life has been
more than 20 years instead Of the
four which the wood or asphalt would
have endured.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..

The East Oregonian tries to keep its
ears and eyes open everywhere at all
times, and in this way gets some of its
best inspiration from the most humble
and unexpected sources.
In a little scene on the Spokane
train yesterday morning the East Or
egonian finds thought for an editori-
al Dozens of people who were crowd
ing around at the time saw nothing
nor heard nothing unusual. But to
one with eyes and ears open there was
an inspiration in this scene.
Forty Nez Perce Indians, men, wo-
men and children, were returning
home to Lewiston after attending the
religious meetings at the Tutullln
Presbyterian mission. A large num-
ber of Umatilla cousins accompanied
the Nez Perces to the train to see
them start homeward
While the passengers were crowd
ing into the cars paying no heed to
anything but their desire to secure
the best seats for themselves, Kip-kip-
bal-li-can, the Nez Perce preacher,
great masterful Indian giant, with
square-set jaw and piercing but kind
! ly eyes and hands like a steam shovel
stood in the vestibule of a car. bend
ing over little Gilbert Minthorn. an
Indian boy, talking earnestly and soft
ly to him.
/ The giant was holding the hand of
the child, and the great lustrous black
/ eyes of the child were looking up into
the big face, admiringly, intently. The
words were spoken in the Nez Perce
tongue, but they were earnest, impress
sive, full of pathos and meaning and
there was something sublimely beauti-
full in the picture of the child and
giant. -
Kash Kash of the Umatila reserva-
ton, was standing near and after the
train left he interpreted to the East
Oregonian what Kip-kip- -bal-li-can
was saying:
Colbert, always be good boy: the
same God who loves the white boy in
his happy home, loves the Indian boy
7 in his tepee; be good boy and grow
up to be great man who can teach
our people and lead them out of
darkness into light. Our people do
not have fine houses nor fine proper
ty, but we have souls and We can love
and worship God just as well out on
the hills as in a big house. Be good
everywhere, for God sees Gilbert
everywhere and knows his tn 1ughts.
When somebody says to do W; ing, let
Gilbert remember -kip-bal-li-can
and say: No. You are growing up
to be a man. Soon you will be boy
no more. Soon you viii be old enough
20 give advice to little children Be
a great man and a good man so you
can be likesa light burning on the hill,
leading our. people out of darkness"
Do you think If these words sink
into the memory of that little Indian
boy, and he becomes a righteous In
dian in the midst of the degrading
temptations of the whites, that the
work of the early missionaries will
have been performed in vain?
