They are not peculiar to our city. but
belong generally to the later life OF
our whole country.
There are signs OF an increased loss
OF public spirit and Of increasing fail
ure to meet obligations. accompanied
by decline in mutual forbearance
and the just recognition OF each others
rights. But in some OF these respects
san Francisco has suffered to a pro-
nounced degree. The increasing
struggle between capital and labor
needs to be composed. 1t ought to be
understood that there is no general
conspiracy of capital against labor,
and that there can be none.
Those who lead the organizations of
labor to believe that there is, do them
a great injury, as well as the public
at large. San Francisco has had an
undue share of harm from this source.
Every workingman has right, equal
ly with every capitalist, to an open
market, a right to the open shop. A
that does not secure this
Is false pretense and 1t is not worth
what 1t costs

THE MIRACLE OF FRISCO.

Mayor Edward r. Taylor Of San
Francisco, says of the miracle wrought
in the rebuilding Of that city:
The plain story Of restoration since
the fire seems like fairy tale. In
the period OF nearly two years the
building operations filed exceed $780,
O00, 900. In the case Of almost every
building the cost exceeds the original
estimate. So we may safely assume
that the buildings erected since the
fire have cost about 500. 900, 900.
AS near as can be ascertalned, all
but $4,000. 900 Of this vast sum is local
money. San Francisco can thus point
to a great commercial success and to
many civil successes, in spite Of her
troubles and disasters.
II she has not yet had all the sue
cesses that we hoped she would have,
It is well to recognize this and to re-
allze what the causes have been.

What Pendleton should do to adver-
tise herself and bring more business
here is to appoint committee to Sc
cure right of way for the electric road
from Athena to this city and see that
that road does not stop ct Athena for
a couple of years to sap that district
for walla Walla. Everything posi-
BILE should be done to encourage the
road to build to this city as quickly
as possible. And it should not stop
here, but should be rushed on to the
government irrigation project, Hermis-
tor Umatilla and Echo to bring those
points within a few minutes Of Pendle-
ten, the county seat and trading cen
ter.

RosALIA WILL DEMONSTRATES.

The little town OF Rosalla, wash,
believes in making good what she ad-
vocates; she believes in showing peo-
pie that her theories are right and
practical and profitable and so she is
engaging in the experimental farm
business on her own responsibility.
With 5OO-acre and 1OOO-acre farms
all around her, she is going to take
a 2O-acre field and make 1t productive
and demonstrate that it is not neces-
sary to own a section or half section
IN order to make a living and good
profit. An item from Rosalia says
OF her experiment:
The Rosalia chamber of commerce
has secured a donation Of 20 acres of
land adjoining town to be used as
demonstration farm, and is now ar
ranging for planting and cultivating 1t
in conformity with the theories of the
Washington state college agricultural
department.
The object is to prove that diversi-
fled farming will produce better re-
turns from the soil than wheat rails
ing. and that the large wheat farms,
if cut up into smaller tracts, would
support a much larger population
than at present.
While there are now many farms Of
from 500 to 1000 acres and more in
Whitman county, local real estate men
report that fully IS per cent of in
quiries from incoming homeseekers
are for tracts of from 40 to so acres.
on the other hand most of the larger
farmers prefer to add to rather than
decrease their holdings, and for this
reason a very desirable class of citi-
zens are unable to secure homes here.
The chamber of commerce intends
to demonstrate that practically every
variety of the smaller farm products
can be successfully and profitably
grown here and thus induce the large
landowners to cut up their holdings
The state college agricultural depart
ment will act as advisory board.

A SONG OF THE NIGHT.

PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE?

SO certain is Ben Selllng's election to
the state senate thought that he is al
ready being considered as the presi-

session to be held at Salem next win

Selling can be elected president is
of course a matter for debate at this
time, but he would be satisfactory to
nearly all the statement No. l men

As a rule. newly elected senator
is not made president, this being an
honor that goes to a senator in the
second session OF his term. Tom Kay
senator from Marion county. has long
coveted the presidency and would like
to fill the chair next winter. He may
not step aside for Selling. Senator
Bingham. too, has cast longing eyes
at the post of presiding officer. Sem

have a number of votes for the place
If he would begin a campaign for

past
For l am back a boy again.
Knee-deep in heading barley in a
Mendocino glen.
l can not ever be so sad
But one thing still will make me
glad
That hid spring in the Suisun hills:
My heart keeps going back to it thro'
all the earthly ills.
How often when the brood of care
Would hold me in a hopeless snare
My soul springs winged and away,
Remembering that wild ducks nest
above Benieia bay!

hill,
a shepherd boy at set of sun,
Folding his happy sheep and knowing
all his tasks are done.

Then beside the bonds issued for
public Improvements in the past five
years, as given above, a long list OF
heavy public subscriptions have been
given for educational, charitable and
religious purposes as will be seen by
the following list:
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1908-04-27

Total ................ Soo'I IVV
This makes a grand total of 1881, 700
given by the citizens Of Pendleton for
municipal improvements, education
and charity, an amount which has not
been duplicated for these purposes by
any other city in the entire north
west, except the four largest cities
mentioned.
So after all Pendleton is not to be
severely criticized for inactivity, sloth-
fulness, lack Of public spirit. Pendle-
ton has had no boom, but she has
grown slowly but steadily since she
first became a town. She wants no
boom, she wants no fictitious progress,
but she wants to continue to grow
substantially steadily, permanently as
the increasing business and settlement
Of the surrounding country demands

WHAT pENDLEToN HAS DONE.

In the last five years the little city
Of Pendleton has made more munich
pal improvements and progress than
any other city in the northwest out
side of Portland, Seattle, Tacoma and
Spokane.
No matter how much she may be
criticised for not advertising in the
east. and how much she has neglected
to boom" her, she has a bona fide
record for public Improvements and
public subscriptions which stands un-
challenged in the northwest.
Here are the big items in the way
of city bonds issued for Pendleton's
improvement:

There is more Catarrh In this section OF the

be incurable. For great many years doc

failing to cure with local treatment. pro-
nounced it incdrable. Science has proven ca
tarrh to be q constitutional disease and there

Senator Hale.


The reported decision OF Senator
Hale, of Maine, to renounce the chair
manship of the appropriations COM
mittee in order to retain his old place
as chairman Of the naval committee
will not please the navy enthusiasts
in and out of Congress, from the
President down.
Mr.. Hale has always been an OBJ
stacle to the plans of the big navy
promoters, although he cannot be
denied credit for vast amount of in
telligent work in the creation of the
present feet of the United States.
His choice of positions is to be COM
mended, on the whole, since con-
sentative man is needed at the head
of the naval committee.
At the same time, no republican
senator is SO well fitted as he to sue
coed the late Senator Allison as the
chairman of the great appropriations
committee. For many years Mr..
Hale was Mr.. Allison's colleague, and
his knowledge of government appro-
priations is minute. 1t is to be feared
that senator of inferior qualifica-
tions will secure the post, now that
Senator Hemenway, of Indiana, who
had served on the House appropria-
tions committee, has lost his seat.

Secretary Of State Root is expected
to succeed Senator Platt, of New York,
whose senatorial term expires on
March next. Mr.. Root has the sup
port of the element in New York which
elected Gov. hughes, but is opposed
by some other aspirants for the
senatorship. Not only New York.
but the country at large is interested
in seeing that the services of 80 emil
nent and so able man as Secretary
Root shall not be lost to the country.
President-elect Taft, it is understood,
would be glad to retain him as the
head Of his cabinet, but as senator
he will be able to voice the admins
tration in Congress, and also can as
sist by his counsels, and indirectly in
the cabinet chamber.

STATE OFFICERS.

Forecast of Changes to be Made at
Beginning of Year.
When the republicans-elect to the Maine
legislature meet at Augusta the first week
in January, their first duty will be to
nominate State officials or such State Off
Gals as the legislature elects. The repub-
licans will have working majority in the
next legislature, about the same as at the
last session. The officers who will be
nominated in addition to the Senate and
House officials, will be secretary of state,
state treasurer, attorney general, COM
missioner OF agriculture, one state as
SCISSOR and members of the executive coun-
Gil.
AS is well known, there are contests and
lively ones for the repub Iican nominations
for encouragement, speaker of the House
and member of the board of assessors. 1t
is now definitely decided that the nomi-
nation for president OF the Senate will go
to Hon. L. b. Deasy. of Hancock county.
Hon. Arthur l. Brown, the present seq
rotary of state, will be renominated with
out opposition. Two years ago, there
Brown and w. S. Cotton. OF Lisbon. Mr..
Cotton has now accepted position as pri-
vate secretary to the chief executive and
therefore is not in the field at this time,
although his friends expect to make the
popular Lisbon man secretary of state,
one of these days when Mr.. Brown is
| through with the position. The Belfast

knowledge of the state department.
Hon. Pascal P. Gilmore, OF Bncksport,
the present state treasurer, will be nomi-
mated to succeed himself without oppo-
sition. Mr.. Gilmore had to fight for the
nomination two years ago. but won out
handsomely and has served very efficiently.
There seems no doubt that unanimous
denomination will be accorded Hon. Au-
gustus w. Gilman, of Foxcroft, who has
served most acceptably as commissioner OF
agriculture. Mr.. Gilman has worked ener-
getically and intelligently, and has greatly
increased the efficiency of his department.
The contest that is on for nomination
for encouragement has been given re-
newed interest by the announcement of
Hon. Charles ID. Newell, of Richmond,
member of the governors council, of his
candidacy for the position OF assistant
attorney general. The assistant attorney
general is nominated by the attorney
general, and this fact has called forth
some criticism on the ground that the
assistant attorney-generalship would
be the natural stepping stone to the
attorney generalship, and that thus each
attorney general would practically have
the selection Of his successor. On this
account 1t has been suggested that the
assistant attorney-general, a. well as his
chief, BE- elected BY the legislature.

REGISTERS OF DEEDS organize.
An association OF the registers Of deeds
OF Maine was formed at a meeting in
Augusta yesterday, at which all but two
OF the sixteen registers were present.
o. w. Iarrabee, OF Auburn, was chosen
president; J. E. Friend, Bangor, vice
president; and l.. o. Tebbetts, Augusta,
secretary and treasurer.
A Legislative committee consisting Of
J. E. Friend, Bangor; Howard Bracket,
Cornish; l.. o. Tibbetts, Augusta; J. II.
Bean, Auburn, and w. o. Emery, Sulii-
van, was chosen to appear before the
legislature this winter and attempt to Sc
