STAND TOGETHER,

In a recent issue the Baker City
Herald argues against the location Of
the proposd branch asylum in PEN
dleton and insists that it should go
t. Baker instead.
Is this a forerunner Of what is to
come; are the towns Of Eastern Ore
yon going TO fall out over the ques-
ton of where the asylum is to be To-
Gated? If they do. then goodbye to
the branch asylum. 1t will not be
located in Eastern Orgon at all. It
win go to the vicinity" of Portland
or to Southern Oregon.
If Eastern Oregon gets what it is
entitled to from the legislature the
people Of this section must work to-
gether They should agree upon the
most favorable location for the in
stitution and then stand together in
the matter.
Physicians recommnd that there
should be a branch asylum in East
ern Oregon because the climate here
would be beneficial to many pa
tents. The East Oregonian believes
they refer to that section of Eastern
Oregon lying between the Blue noun
tains and the Cascades This is the
Land of Sunshine" and it is tie Sec
ton generally referred to when peo-
pie speak Of Eastern Oregon. Baker
City is located high up in the noun
tains and while it is in Eastern Ore
gon it is in no sense of the word a
typical Eastern oregon town. But Of
course if 1t can be shown that Baker
City is a more favorable place for the
institution, then by all means let
Baker have it,
But the chief argument that the
Baker City Herald puts forth against
Pendleton is that the supreme court
holds a session here and that because
Of this fact Pendleton already "has
something" This is exactly the kind
Of talk that should not be made. This
sort Of talk will kill the proposition
entirely It shows narrowness and
selfishness.
If Baker City. or any town, wants |
the branch asylum let that town stand |
upon it's own merits as Pendleton is |
doing. But first Of all let us avoid |
any Eastern Oregon quarrel upon the
subject.

THE LITTLE VOYAGER.

oh. the ways are many to Drowsy
Land,
Some one, 1 know, would try them
all.
'Tis hey, tonight. for a big balloon,
Big and round, like a silver ball.
Up through the dark it swings along,
Blown by the night winds rustlng
song.
Slowly it sways and swings this way,
Posing at last, just overhead,
When down drops a glmmering rope
of light,
And anchors it safe on tiny bed;
And climbing the ladder of silver
beams,
Someone embarks for the land Of
dreams.
All through the night, in the shining
thing,
Silent they float through the cool,
sweet dark,
Reeds they dip in the foamy clouds,
Where the summer lightnings CLINT
and spark,
And east or west, DER the wind swept
sky,
The twinkling, golden bubbles fly.
Do you ask me how Some One comes
home again
When deep in the west dips the sill
yer sphere?
oh. never thought do I give to that,
Perhaps the sun is the charioteer,
| only know that the tiny bed
Pillows each morning a golden head.

England Magazine.

For many reasons the subject OF
intensified farming is now a vital one
Ia, this section. The land is becom-
ing too expensive for exclusive
wheat-raising. II land owners wish
their property to continue TO advance
in value they must improve the farm
ing methods of the county.
Scientific men declare the farms OF
Umatilla county are not being work
ed to anything like their full capacity.
They declare other things than wheat
may be raised here with success and
that If the right methods are adopted
the population of this county may be
doubled or trebled with ease.
Why not go to Cheyenne and hear
what the dry farming men have to
'ay?

GO TO CHEYENNE.

Here is a suggestion for some Of
the farmers Of the county-especially
for the progressive men who are anxi-
Gus to make the best possible use Of
their land
Go to Cheyenne in February and
attend the third annual Transmits
souri, Dry Farming congress. The
session Is TO last for three days, Feb
ruary %. "a and 25th inclusive. There
will be many people there, many Of
them being men who have had ex-
tensiye experience in farming in dry
land sections. They will give some
talks that will be worth hearing.
As the congress is to be held in
February It will come at time when
farmers will be at leisure. Further
.rore it will be held in a nearby
state and those who attend will not
have far to 20.
During the mid-wlnter months au-
tomobiling is not good and there are
many farmers who do not care TO
go TO California. Some Of these might
charter a special Pullman and HE
away 70 Cheyenne for the dry farm
irg congress.

Poor Eve! How lingering went thy
faltering steps,
How many glancings back from
wOe-swept eyes
Across the fawless beauty of those
ways;
O'er all the golden glory Of those

And silver Of thy moonlit Paradise,
TIL He Of the great fire-gleaming
sword
Had closed the star-gemmed gate up
on thy sighs.
And still throughout the weary years
we see
Thy dragging footsteps DER lifes
scorching plain;
Still longing for the vision lost to
sight,
Ahunger for what ne'er sh2.l come
again.
We hear thy pleading. cry the lark
in vain
And know each day that, even as Of
yore.
Some poor Eve weeps-unparadised
once more.

AS a tonic Peruna has no superior.
But it is as catarrh remedy it has
achieved its worldwide notoriety and
success.
Any catarrh remedy to become per-
manently effectull in the cure of ca
tarrh must contain tonic and invigorat-
ing qualities with its anti-catarrhal
qualities. Catarrh is always an express
sion of nerve weakness, either local

that catarrh remedy should possess
reliable invigorating qualities in order
to thoroughly rid the system Of catarrh.

the young couple took advantage
Of the fathers absence and
eloped.

by the large crowd that attend

accompanied the couple to the
home of the groom. After the
ceremony the bride and groom
and their friends repaired to the
