East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1908-01-25

A climax was reached in the union
evangelistic meetings yesterday when
Evangelist Haudenschield called for
requests for prayer. From all parts
Of an audience that filled the house
the replies came.
Aged parents asked in trembling
tones for sons and daughters, scat
tered to remote parts of the world,
saying that they had waited long for
their conversion. Wives asked that
husbands might be Joined to them in
faith. Sunday school teachers asked
that their work for their classes
might be completed. Men voiced
their desire for other men. Many
faces were marked with tears, though
there was no evidence of an unrea-
soning emotion.
The sway of a tremendous earnest
ness was felt on every hand. After
perhaps so requests had been recelv-
ed, practically every one in the room

1t remains to be seen just how
strong the desire to fight for Pendle-
ton obtains with the congressman and
to what limit he will so. If, as stated,
he introduces house bill with Baker

Fulton endeavored to assist PEN

court between that city and Baker,
but the senate committee would not
stand for the suggestion.

Baker City Paper Not Sure About
Federal District.


The Baker City Herald says of the
location of the headquarters of the
pew federal district of eastern Ore
gon:
While there is some encouragement
relative to the new federal court, yet
withal a strong doubt is prevalent as
to the successful outcome. This is
wholly due to the lack of unison in
the delegation in congress. If Con-
gressman Ellis permits his desire to
favor Pendleton, his home town, as a
seat of the court, and makes his fight
along those lines. there is good rea-
son to believe that Oregon will not
be divided into two districts this ses-
sion.
On the other hand IL he eccepts
the senate bill as passed, naming Ba-

injury sustained by Lent was painful

The two boys were fooling with a

DEMOCRATS LOSE

"PERSONAL LIBERTY" PLANK.

Bellingham, May 20-By refus-

ty" plank in the state platform,
which meant in reality going "wet, -
the democrats lost a chance for a
100000 campaign fund from the
state and national liquor men, says
w. H. Pemberton, one of the What
com county delegates to the conven-
tion who returned home last night,
and who, with John L. Lfkens of this
city, will go as national delegates to
the convention in July.
The saloon men and their repre-
sentatives were especially active at
Spokane and held out many induce
ments to the yfnerrified to come out
in favor of the liquor interests.
Believing that this state is not yet
ready for local option, the brewery
representatives were decidedly desi-
rous of having the matter put before
the people on a straight-away issue,
the republicans for local option, the
democrats against it. Then the sa-
loon organization of Washington,
| which comprises 95 per cent of the
saloon men formed for the purpose
of assisting Mcbride in his candidacy
against Mead would have been swept

nee, with the saloon interests of the
nation pouring money into the treas
ury of the democrats.

RED APPLE
SCHOLARSHIP
WINNER TO BE SELECTED SOON
TO REPRESENT THE CITY OF
WENATCHEE AT THE STATE
UNIVERSITY.

The Big Red Apple scholarship
committee, consisting of John A.
Gellatly, Principal Frank c. Lemon
and Fred Kemp, have been busy the
past week going over the records of
the seniors in order to determine
who shall be the first winner of this
fine scholarship to the University of
Washington. Some of the students
have made exceptionally good rec
ords in their scholastic work, but
have taken no part in student activi-
ties, while others have given more
attention to student activities than
| to their studies.
| "To arrive at an accurate average
will be most like splitting hairs,
said Principal Lemon to Daily
World reporter the other evening.
However" he said, "the student
who wins the scholarship not only
repI esents the school, but more par
ticularly the city of Wenatchee, and
for that reason will be looked upon
to uphold the reputation that the
town has already gained in an edu-
cational way. The student who goes
! to theuniversity as the Big Red Ap-
pie student will be singled out from
the other Wenatchee students and
will be expected to take the lead.
There are several students who are
capable of doing this, and now the
nest difficult task is before us, name
ly, to select the first Big Red Ap-
j pie representative"
In a recent editorial entitled the
"Red Apple Scholarship" printed in
the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, that
paper, in speaking of the efforts OF
the Wenatchee students in the Uni
versity, says: "The Wenatchee stu
dents are entitled to gold medal for
their labors in behalf of their home
city and the cause of education.
They have demonstrated the power
OF publicity and patriotism in adver-
Using the land of the big red apple.
'"hey have pointed out way by
which others may create enthusiasm
in their respective home comHtn9i-
| ties. They have started to build
wisely, and will certainly reap abCn
dant harvests from the annual crops
of industry Why not establish
more scholarships to- represent the
rhe different agricultural communi-
ties:'
/ We see by this that Wenatcilee
las set the pace in it's appreciation
Of the educational advantages of onr
state The graduating class are all
on the anxious seat wondering who
will be the lucky one to be chosen tc
maintain this pace and let the other
schools be trailers in the race.

THREE new ROADS
TO CROSS STATE
ROAD COMMISSIONER JOSEPH M.
SNOW OUTLINES SYSTEM OF
HIGHWAY.

Three roads from the shores of
Puget Sound across the mountains to
the eastern part of the state and one
north and south road will be built in
the near future, according to plans of
the state highway commission. Two
of these roads, one to the eastern
part of the state by way of Snoqual-
mie pass and the other running
north and south from Blaine to Van
couver, will intersect at acoma.
The general scheme of road deve1-
opment has been outlined by Joseph
NJ. Snow, state highway commission
er, and Samuel Hill, president of the
State Good Roads association.
All of the three transmountain
roads will run directly east and west.
The northernmost will lie along the
sixth standard parallel, having Seat
tie as the western and Spokane as
the eastern terminus. The two ter
mini of the next road to the south
will be South Bend on the west and
Pullman on the east. The southern
most road will begin at Vancouver
and extend eastward to Walla Walla.
The north and south road, begin
ming at Blaine, will touch at Belling-
ham, Everett, Seattle and Tacoma
and from here will be built by the
most direct route to Vancouver.
The four roads together will reach
the great majority of the population
of the state and upon the construc-
tion of these principal arteries t.
good roads forces of the state pro-
pote so concentrate their efforts.
The quarries will be located at points
so situated that together they will
be most available for supplying the
crushed rock for the road construc-
ton in each section. The use OF
convict labor in the quarries will re-
duce the cost of the roads to the min
imum.
1t is said that the roads across the
mountains will have no grades heav-
ier than 5 per cent. The work Is to
be started this year and completed
as fast as the state funds are avail
able. Besides so convicts in the
quarries, 1000 men will be required

MY SCdt.
Where did she get that hat?
Who ever did invent lady's lid
Like that?
Who had the nerve to roll it out
And stretch it more and more.
From centerpiece to rim, until
1t spreads from shore to shore
1t spreads from shore to shore
And likewise lifts its summit up
On birds and other wings
Above the earth until it scrapes
The clouds and other things?
Who added to the woudrous width
OF brim so that the space
Could easily accommodate
An automobile race?
Say, who done that?
Who built her hat?
Who made it something never seen
On earth or in the sky
A fiat Of wide extended plain,
A mountain towering high?
| Cut wider doors for her to get
Inside of any place.
And put the ceiling on the roof
To give her nodding space,
Push up the clouds to let her stanc
Erect upon the ground,
And shove the wide horizon back
To let her turn around.
Oh, wierdly, witching, woozy hat
That f1attens out and towers
Who ever saws a thing like that
A pancake piled with flowers?
A hat contagious-spreading? Yes,
That names the Merry Wild.
And she who fails to catch it should
Slip out and change her lid.

What a wonder a woman is.
