The Gospel oe Good Cheer.

People loved Robert Louis Steven son not because he was an admirable writer, but because he was a cheerful consumptive. He was q sufferer who for many years increased the gayety of life. Genius alone can do this ou large scale, but everybody can do It on little one Our safest guide is the realization of hard truth-that we are not privileged to share our trod bles with other people. If we could make up our minds to spare ou1 friends all details of i'll health, of mon ey losses, of domestic annoyances, of alterations. of committee work, of grievances, provocations and anxieties, we should sin less against the worlds good humor. It may not be given us to add to the treasury of mirth, but there is considerable merit in not rob- ping it.-Agnes Repplier in Harper's Magazine.

 First, you do not send them accord ing to your tenure of the first new her rings that are taken.
 Secondly, you do not cause them tc be well baked in good and strong pastye, as they ought to be- that theT may endure the carriage the better

WILL CONDON CELEBRATE?

This Office has received not a
few letters from outside parties
wishing to know if Condor intends
to celebrate the 4th this year. If
anything is to be done it should be
started at once as it takes time
and hard work to make a success
full celebration. A series of ball
games is a great feature and the
fact that the team is assured and
are expecting to play The Dalles
team here if Condoniwill cele-
brate, ought to be incentive
enough for the town to do some
thing. The tennis team expects
to play a matched game with the
Arlington team and it is an as
sured fact that a Hose Team will
be organized and start practicing
if this question is favorably set
tied, Some people have forgotten
that there ever was a Declaration
of Independence. Why not stir
them up and show them there is
a town here that can handle a
celebration as we'll as any. Con-
don has the material, all it needs
is to get started.

They were met at the depot by
the Condor business men and af-
ter the introductions and hand
shaking, Bro. Curran of the Times
delivered the address of welcome
which was appropriate and well
rendered. TT. Burkhart of Port
land responded with a few well
chosen words after which the par
ty proceeded to visit the the bus
mess houses. They expressed
themselves as being well pleased
with Gillian County in general
and Condor in particular and not
few predicted a great future for
our little city. After looking over
the town for about an hour they
assembled at the special, which
by the way was in charge of Con-
ductor Shirey, and after giving
three cheers for Portland and
shaking hands all around again
they departed for Arlington,
Biggs, Wasco, Moro, Grass Valley
and Shaniko which were all Wis
tied before proceeding to Port
land. We join with Bro. Curran in
the last words of his address:

TUESDAY, APRIL 1e, 1907.

Those interested in the per sonality and doings of the great and near-great, will be pleased to learn that Secretary Taft, maybe-republi- can-nominee for the presidency, has succeeded in taking 100 pounds. off his weight in the past year. He has put himself under the care of noted physician, taken to strict diet, cut out sweets, beer and as much of other liquids as he can, and rides horse back as much as possible; that is to say, as much as possible for the horse. The secretary says he cannot afford to keep only two saddle horses of the Perchron breed and two horses don't go very far with him yet. But he is happy in the reduction he has al- ready accomplished, and confided to a friend the other day that he really "did not weigh much more than grand piano"
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1907-04-16

Indications accumulate that this
 country is going to have a hard time
 letting go in Cuba, says a Washing ton writer. The visit of Secretary
 Taft to the island has not cleared the
 situation so much as it might. It
 will be at least year before the isl-
 and can be handed over to the na-
 tives, and 1t is generally feared that
 when it is there will be only a brief
 interlude before there is more revo- lutionary trouble and the interven- tion of the United States will again be called for to- protect American property interests. This country has hundreds of millions of dollars in- vested in the island. and even this is not as much as the combined in terests of the other foreign govern ments. The experience of the Ameri- can ad interim government has been that the Cubans are easy enough to govern, but that they will not gov- ern themselves. It is a case of too many of them who are cut out for reporters and insist on being edi- tors. This government has been be- sought by England. France and Ger many not to let go of the island now that it is under American control. the general fear being that the island if left to itself will develop into an- other Hayti under negro domination. Foreign governments cannot as rule understand that the United States was sincere in it's announce ment that it did not want the island and was not going to fight Spain for the sake of acquiring it. Preparations are being made for talk ing a new census preparatory to an- other election. but it will be six or eight months before that is complet- cd Then there will be another six months before the elections are held and the new government is set run ming Then there will be consider Abls time required for the svaeusfioa
