NEED MORE PHONES.

One of the most urgent needs of
the inland empire today is an inde-
pendent system of telephones form
ing a network over every farming
community in this vast territory.
The through lines are good as far
as they go. But they do not reach
out into the remote corners, they do
not serve the fartherst settlements on
the borders as they should.
From Pendleton to Spokane, in one
unbroken network. there should ex-
tend a continuous system of farmers
telephones. Every farm should be
in communication with the world by
its telephone and its rural mail route.
The people get small enough benefit
from the inventions and conveniences
OF the age.
Umatilla county is not half sup
piled with rural telephones. There
Is an opening for a good business for
somebody with the money, in estab-
fishing rural lines. Pendleton should
be able to speak to the home Of every
farmer in the county, by telephone,
and az it is she can reach but a small
proportion of them.

MISTAKES ARE HELPFUL.

Joaquin Miller, who has been in
Pendleton this week, gave the East
oregonian the theme for this brief
editorial. in a conversation. In
speaking Of the mistakes of mems
lives, Of the wrong steps taken with
the best of intentions at times, he
said
When I ride along the railroad
and looking out of my car window,
see hundreds Of workmen digging to
straighten out a curve, make more
satisfactory grade or correct an error
in the construction of the roadbed,
I clap my hands in joy.
IF high salaried railroad engineers,
employed because Of their skill and
learning in their craft, make mis-
takes which cost thousands of dollars
70 correct, should l. common man,
be humiliated by my mistakes?
Should I not take heart that I
have been in such good company, in
making mistakes? But the sin Of the
thing is to make the same mistake
twice. We should learn from our
blunders to walk more uprightly.
more manfully, more fearlessly.'

oCEoLA BLAKY RACE HORSE.

The following short story of oceola,
the race horse once owned in east
ern Oregon by George Coggins, who
was afterward killed by Umatilla In
dians a few miles from Pendleton.
is familiar to many pioneers yet liv-
ing in this city and county:
The first circular track to bring
joy to the hearts of Portland's race
lovers was constructed by P. A. Mar
guam on a level stretch of ground
just west of the present Rose City
park, says writer in the Telegram.
II was built in the late sos. Many
hotly contested race was held on
it. One of the queerest was won by a
horse named Oceola, owned by George
Coggins, who lived here in the
days of yore. In his day Oceola was
thought to be the fastest horse on
the coast; but he was very unreliable; (;
sometimes he would balk, and no
amount of whipping could make him
move until he got good and ready.
Well, in the queer race mentioned,
Oceola was matched against two 9TH
er horses that had considerable speed.
The animal with the Indian name led
in the start, but just as he neared the
half-mile post he began to buck. The
other horses dashed past Oceola
saw them and came to his senses af-
ter the others were several lengths
beyond him. He came to himself as
suddenly as he had gone wrong, and
by tremendous burst of speed won
the race.

GO BAREHEADED FOR HEALTH

Frederick Mead. an Assining mer-
chant, went down on the revenue
cutter Hudson early yesterday morn
ing to meet his wife and daughter,
who were passengers on the North
German Lloyd liner Barbarossa, ar
riving from Naples, says the New
York Times. Mr.. Mead, though
well dressed, wore no hat, and his ap-
pearance soon attracted considerable
attention, both among the customs
men and on the steamship. He was
approached by the curious. who
wanted to know where he had lost
his hat.
Il have not worn a hat in years"
said Mr.. Mead. 81 lost my hat by ac-
cident and found that going without a
hat was the best way" AS evidence
of this he had to exhibit a good head
of hair topping off a sunburned face
and surrounded by a fringe of
freckles. He also declared that he
was not afraid of pneumonia or sun
stroke, and that he did not have head
aches.

THE MAGNITUDE OF OREGON.

Congressman w. r. Ellis Of this
district, has just returned to his home
in this city, after making limited
tour Of the immense district in an ef-
fort TO find out what the people need
and want in the way Of legislation,
and to get in touch with public senti-
ment on questions. which will come in
the next session Of congress.
Something Of the vastness, the mag
nitude. the great scope Of Oregon may
be CLEANED from a survey Of the i'm
mense district which Congressman El-
lis represents in the national con-
gress. The district comprises IS big
counties. having a total area Of about
$4,000 square miles and about SOO,-
900 population, and in that vast do
main are to be found all the varied
Industries and interests which go to
make up the commercial and indus
trial life Of Oregon.
Hundreds Of miles Of stage travel
are necessary to cover this vast inter-
for district One line OF railroad runs
along its extreme northern border and
three or four branch lines reach feebly
out into the interior for a few miles,
but all of the vast bulk Of the district
must be reached by stage or team

Advertising is the leading art of
this age. Publicity is the greatest
public servant of the people. Cities
are now employing regular adver-
tising agents and are engaging active
ly in the art and employ a regular
advertising agent. Walter Lyons has
gone to Marshfield to engage in writ
ing boosting advertising matter for
Coos bay He will draw a handsome
salary and will be in a good position
as long as Coos bay has anything to
offer a homeseeker. Portland has
paid out thousands Of dollars to her
advertising agents. Washington
cities employ regular writer's to
boost their advantages. 1t is one Of
the unique and vital developments of
the art of publicity. Cities, like mer-
chants, cannot hope to reach people
who want their goods unless they
advertise.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1907-06-27

and the stopping places are few and
far between in many sections.
Harvey county alone, one Of the 16
counties comprising his district, con-
tains an area of about 10000 square
miles, as large as several of the small
er eastern states combined.
Congressman in the districts of
Philadelphia and New York are able
TO walk around the borders of their
entire districts before breakfast. Here
is one vast county in the district rep
resented by Congressman Ellis having
a border line about 400 miles in
length.
And yet, the members representing
the crowded districts of the eastern
cities draw the same pay as Congress
man Ellis, who represents the second
district in Oregon, comprising an area
of over $4,000 square miles.
In many small congressional dis
tricts in the east there have been no
postoffice changes for 20 years. There
are no navigable rivers, no Indian res
ervations, no reclamation projects, no
timber lands, no public questions to
take up the time of congressman.
Aside from their duties at the sessions
of congress, the members in many
eastern districts have absolutely moth
ing to do except look after the in
terests of handful of pensioners.
During their entire term many of
them never travel a mile in the inter-
est of their constituents except to
ride to Washington to attend the ses-
sion.
Here in Oregon if a member of
congress attends to his duties prop
erly he must ride hundreds of miles
into the interior in rickety stage
coaches, to look after sparsely set
tied districts where postoffices are
scantily patronized and where mail
facilities are meager and crude.
The most remote settlement claims
portion of the time of the official.
Every humble family in the far in
terror is entitled to the best public
service that it IS possible to give and
III this vast new country with its
multiplied interests, a congressman
can spend his entire time in study
ing the needs of his people and then
not be able to visit half of the i'm
portant points, for sheer lack of
time.
For the reason that eastern dis
tricts are small and eastern questions
are not pressing. the demands of
western congressman are too often
discredited and ignored by eastern
members. There is need Of a better
understanding, there is need of more
acquaintance between different parts
Of the country that all its vast in
terests might be carefully and intel
ligently dealt with.

opinion will quit the habit OF taking
medicine when sick. They will adopt
sane methods of living, with plenty
of fresh air, wholesome food, regu-
lar hours Of work, recreation and
rest. By these methods and intelli-
gent sanitary regulations, these dis
eases will gradually disappear.

There may be some madness in it, but ,tere is DO method of business. certainly. It takes a good deal of moaay to conduct an up-.o-dace newspaper and money cannot be made by giving newspapers away, hence the free li,. from today On will be abolished and rhe names of those who have heretofore been getting the paper free, will be stricken from the lists of subscribers.

Explosion Of Compressed Air.

In an scciden. such as has never before
occurred in the history of anthracite
mining, two men were killed, two fatally
injured, aud twenty others hurt, 10 the
checker vein OF the Pennsylvania Coal
Compsny's No. ID colliery near Wilkes
barre, Pa, last night.
The dead are Engineer Patrick Nc
Oaulsr, of Pittston, and Driver Boss
John Munley, of Plains. Henry Waters
aud Michael Dillon arc fatally hurt ard
most of the others injured are Slav mine
workers.
McCauler was the engineer Of a COM
pressed air locomotive and was hauling
out the last load of men when the motor
ran out of air. He stopped at charg-
ing station and had nearly completed
charging the locomotive when fall OF
rock occurred. This must have opened
a seam in the air box, for terrible
explosion followed, and the engine was
torn into fragments.
McCsuler and Munlsy we're blown to
pieces, and their remains were gathered
up in blankets. Dillon and Waters
we're standing nearby and were terribly
injured. The other men were hurt by
flying fragments.

Race For Gold Cups.

New York, June Fourteen sloOps,
schooners and yswls competing for
the gold cups offered by Rear
Commodore Henry MARS, of the New
Rochelle Yacht Club aud the Brooklyn,
New Rochelle and Royal Bermuda Yacht
Clubs, are now on their way to st.
David's Head, Bermuda. The start was
made from Gravesend Bay today under
adverse conditions, the little vessels
starting away facing strong head winds
and q rough sea on their So mile voyage.
Fifteen of the yachts we're gathered
in Gravesend Bay this morning, but al
the last moment the slOop Sinls, owned
by Hsymsn Cohen, of the Brooklyn
Club, was withdrawn.
The competitions are divided into
three classes. A contains schooners Of
not less than fifty or more than ninety
feet; B sloops of forty feet and under
and G. yawls.
Much interest centers in the race and
hundreds of spectators were assembled 10
yachts and excursion boats to see the
start. 1t is believed the boats will beat
the record established last year OF 20
days 5 hours and So minutes. A record
of under FIVE days would not surprise the
sharps. 1t is feared some of the smaller
craft may not be able to finish owing to
unfavorable weather conditions.

Storms I'm Texas.

The most violent storms Of wind and
rain of the year in and around Dallas
Texas, ragged from o'clock to Syester'ay
morning. The storm was also severe
over north Texas. Fred Dinkelspeel,
commercial traveller from Greensboro,
KY, was filed while turning on az cleo
trio light in his room in Dallas. The
current from the wire electrOcuted him
instantly. Much property was damaged.
The Forest Avenue Methodist Church
was wrecked and the signal tower at the
Texas and Pacific crossing with the
Santa Fe, in East Dallas, was blown
down.
At New Hope, village few miles
east of Dallas, the public school building,
a store, cotton gin, and three private
dwellings were destroyed. A tornado

and Chico, hut no lives we're lost.
Four churches, a schoolhouse, and
seven dwellings we're blown down at
