Pendleton, Ore, Nov. 1, 1907.-Ed-
itor East Oregonian: 1 got hit hard
a short time ago and have been won
dering ever since II any member of
the Boost Club" ever had similar
experience.
This is how 1t happened. I got
acquainted with a man in the noun
tains south of here, who made a
snug fortune in the stock business.
He was arranging to sell out his
ranch and stock and move to town to
educate his children. thought, here
is chance to do a little boosting for
Pendleton so / visited him in his
home and with pardonable pride and
considerable enthusiasm told about
our splendid High school and graded
schools, our excellent business COL
lege and our two academies with the
churches and other things that make
Pendleton a desirable home town.
l thought l had him Interested and
expected he would come right along
and live here, but no, that wasn't in
MS mind at all.
He said, "How many saloons have
you?" I had to confess we have be-
tween 25 and 30.
Then he said, II am going to take
my family where there are no
saloons" I said, "Come and help us
get rid Of them," and he said, "There
are some good towns that have got
rid Of them already" and he is liv-
ing In Fossel now and I am wonder
Ing how many ranchers, stockmen and
other desirable citizens will move
from eastern Oregon to Eugene, Cor
wallis, Albany, Fossel, Milton and
other dry towns to spend their money |
and educate their children.

LEARN TO EAT.
Few People In Pendleton Really Know
How.

How.
This is not an essay on table man.
ners.
1t is simply a little good advice
about one of the great American de.
fects-too rapid eating.
Nothing makes life so miserable, OF
interferes so widely with the useful
ness of the average American, as indi-
gestion.
The quick lunch counters and the
great majority of restaurants, even the
home dining rooms, are simply manu-
factories of stomach troubles.
Slow eating will solve one-half the
problem of i'll health Those who suf-
fer already with Indigestion and weak
stomach can with care and the use Of
Mi-o-na stomach tablets restore their
digestion to a healthy condition, so
that they can eat what they want at
any time without fear Of distress or
suffering.
After a few days use Of Mi-o-na
stomach tablets, the headache, dizzy
feeling, drowsiness, bad taste in the
mouth, coated tongue, nervousness.
distress after eating-all
the symptoms of a weak stomach
will disappear, and perfect digestion
and a good skin will show that the
vital machinery is once more running
Take a little Mi-o-na tablet before
each meal so that It will stimulate the
digestive juices and give strength to
the stomach, and then It will take
care of the food that is eaten, without
Indigestion and the unpleasant full
feeling with which SO many suffer
after meals
Tallman G. Co. have so much confi-
lence in the power of Mi-o-na to cure
Indigestion and all stomach ills that

10 cent box to refund the money II

MESA
CHILD LOST ON DESERT.

Considerable excitement was caused
in Mesa Friday evening by the report
that the l7-months old son of John
Brown. generally known as Bob"
BROWN was lost on the desert north
east of town.
A large number OF men started out
at once to search for the wandering
baby and the search was kept up all
night. The early part Of the night
was dark and lanterns and bicycle
lamps were used. but no trace of the
little one was found until about one
O'Clock Saturday morning when the
moon was shining. A tiny track was
found nearly two miles from the
child's home. This was soon lost.
but the tired searchers continued the
task or looking for a very small child
in a big desert covered with cacti.
About daylight new relay of search
ers put in an appearance and took up
the hunt 1t was feared by that time
that the little one had persisted from
thirst and exhaustion, and only the
lifeless body it was thought, would be
found.
II was Just a short time before six
when Charles and Paul LesueuT again
found the trail of he baby. which
they followed. and at Is minutes past
six they found the lost child standing
in group of cactus, itself so covered
by the cactus thorns that it was al
most indistinguishable from its sur
rnundings. The child was literally
covered with cactus on its face. its
arms and body. and even in its mouth
IL. 81, -,
little one. 1t was incapable of crying
o. making a sound of any kind and
the men who found it might have
passed within very few feet and
missed it but for the tracks which
had been made in the sand
The child had wandered two and a
half miles from its home II was so
covered with thorns that Mr. Lesueur
had TO hold ii in an upright position
while his brother drove the team TO
Mr. Browns house. where frantic
mother shed tears of joy to find that
her baby was still alive
The thorns were gently plucked
from the baby and it was then placed
in warm bath. II was nearly famish-
ed for water which was given in table
Food was given in the same way. and
the little one soon revived and will be
none the worse for the fearful ordeal
through which it passed.
II seems that Mr. and Mrs. Brown
came to town Friday. leaving the baby
with the older children. 1t wandered
away. and the children could not find
it. The parents returned about four
o'clock, and themselves spent consid-
cradle time in searching for the child
before the alarm was given. Accord
ing to the older children they missed
the little one about one o'clock. so it
must have wandered on the desert
during the fierce heat of the after
noon and then went on in the dark
until unable to travel any longer.
What it suffered in that time one ca 1
only imagine. as the little one cannot
describe its feelings. or the fears
which beset the baby mind.

O'Clock yesterday morning. She was
met there by Mr.. Finch and brought
to Tempe at once. Previous to leaving

O'Clock Friday forenoon until the enc
came yesterday.

and in accordance with a wish long
ago expressed by Mrs. Listeberger. the
remains will be embalmed and inferred

1t is thought that shipments in car

fore the 10th or 18th of the month

being made from this point daily. 1t

fifteen cars will be shipped from here

POLITICAL


It is the consensus Of opinion that Mayor
Billy Moore is playing a shrewd game OF
politics in asking the city council to appoint
a commission to examine into the general
condition of the Seattle Electric Company.
It is rather popular among labor unionists
and Populists to criticise the Seattle Electric
Company not so much for actual negligence
on it's part, but because it is a big concern
and open to extort money from. Ii Mayor
Moore really wants to know OF the true con-
dition of the rolling stock and the trackage
of the company, why does not he name City
Engineer Thomson to make the examination
and report to him the true condition of af-
fairs; he has the power If there IS any one
man in the city that has the entire conf
dence of the voters and taxpayers it is Regl-
nald H. Thomson, Alden j. Blethen and the
SWillbarrel administered in broken doses to
the contrary Notwithstanding, and therefore
the Pie-maker suggests that Mayor Moore
quit playing to the galleries and do things
on business principles instead of on political
principles.
"When thieves fall out honest men get
their own," is a time honored saw that
seems rather apropos in the contest or con-
troversy that is now going on between Mayor
Moore and Councilman Gill The two are not
only making faces at each other but are
calling each other ugly names, and the general
public is inclined to believe that neither Of
them is lying. That Mayor W. H. Moore is
to its limit seems quite apparent to any one
who has resided in this city for the past
decade or more That in the past he has not
been consistent Sunday school scholar is
so we'll known to the general public that it
is useless for any one to comment on it.
There is such a thing as reformation on the
part Of human beings and they sometimes
do it, but it is very seldom, and still William
Hickman Moore erstWhile king pen poker
player and bOOZer, may now be true re-
former as mayor of the City of Seattle and
will in the future live an exemplary Chris
tian life, devoting his time and talent to the
pulpit instead Of the poker table, and the
pool rooms are not out Of the pale of pos
sibility. Let's trust and pray that he will
do so.
Hi Gill; as all know, is simply an angel
without WINGS and that there are worse men
than Gill somewhere is believed Hi Gill's
