WHY NOT BUILD 1T?

Here is a suggestion for the farm
ers who are anxious to have an inde-
pendent line built from the wheat belt
to the Columbia river. Work for the
construction of an electric line from
Athena or from Weston to Pendleton
and thence down the river to Una
tilla or some other point on the Col
umbia There are many reasons
why such line would be a good one.
To begin with the line would follow
a water grade all the way to the Col
umbia and the wheat could be taken
down to the open river with ease.
Then such an electric line would fill
other long felt wants. There is need
Of interurban connection between
Pendleton and Athena and Weston
and also between Pendleton and Una
tilla. The territory between Weston
and Pendleton is naturally tributary
tc this city. The business of that Sec
ton naturally flows towards Pendle-
ton. The country between this city
ard Weston would be immensely ben
efitted by the construction of an elec-
trio line between the two towns.
That an electric line is needed be-
tween this city and the west end Of
the country is so apparent that further
explanation should be unnecessary.
It is sufficient to say that when the
irrigated sections of the west end are
settled up that part of the county will
have many thousands of people. Those
people will have much business in
Pendleton and as a result an electric
line from Pendleton to that section
will be of benefit to all concerned.
The farmers of this county want an
Independent line to the Columbia river.
Such a line would undoubtedly mean
much to the wheat raisers of the
county. Such a line as that outlined
above is badly needed by this city.
Now the farmers of this county and
the people of this city have millions of
dollars. If they want a line to the
river why do they not get it? Would
It not be we'll for them to join forces
and build line or else induce some
one else to do so.

THE QUIET MAN.

know man. the meekest man about
his home, I'm sure.
All sorts of aggravating things in ST.
lence he'll endure:
He never answers back his wife; she,
rules him night and day.
And her decisions always go. There's
nothing he can say.
But set him on the bleachers and this
quiet man becomes
A demon who would gladly string the
umpire by his thumbs,
He RACES and he curses and he calls
the umpire thief"
And his fighting disposition seems a
thing beyond belief.
His cheeks grow red with anger and
his lips get white with hate.
He calls the umpire "robber!" and the
pitcher is a "skaten'
When things don't go to suit him he
jumps up and saws the air,
And bids the crowd defiance and he'll
never take a dare;
He's fire-eating rooter on the bleech-
ers without doubt,
And often ne defies the cops to come
and put him out;
At the ball game he's fighter and he
wants the umpire's life
But at home he's meek and humble
and he quails before his wife.

CLEANING TIME.

1t is time to clean your office,
1t is time to clean your store,
And it is time to scrub your windows,
And your ceilings and your floor.
Time to dust your musty book shelves
And your pictures on the walls,
Time to air your musty feirlooms,
And your dark, ancestral halls.
Open wide your doors and windows,
Let the air and sunshine in;
Never mind the wild disorder,
Never mind the crash and din,
Get the broom and duster working,
From the cellar to the roof,
So that dainty maiden summer
Will show nothing of reproof.
And with all your springtime cleaning
In your office, home and store,
Do not let that satisfy you
There is just one corner more,
Open up your upper story
Where the good and bad are rife;
Give yor mind good spring clean
ing
Needs it, I will bet your life.

INTERPRETERS.

Within the convent garden, pale and
tall,
The stately lilies breath fragrant
prayer,
The poppies dream--but through the
broken wall
The wistful roses scent the wider
air.
So, in our strongholds, far from toll
and mart,
Sheltered from the world, pale fan
cies grow,
And idyls fair. dreams that bloom
apart
In cherished shrines no alien eye
may know.
Yet now and then, as through the
crumbling stone
The braver blossoms thrust their
precious dole,
Some noble deed has barriers o'er-
thrown
To watt the clustered fragrance of
the soul!

corporation tax would be unques-

SO is the advocacy of an income tax,
They both aim at the placing of bur-
dens upon the shoulders OF those who
are able to bear them,
There are many, unquestionably a
majority of people, who would like
to have seen liberal downward revis-
ion sf the tariff. Much of the blame
for the present unjust economic con-
ditions can be placed at the door of
the protective tariff. But at this time

that is banded together for the pre-
servation of phoribitive schedules. SO
interlocked are the various forces that
are working for perpetuation of a
tariff for the benefit of the "Inter-
ests" that it is doubtful if the pha-
lanx can be broken.
1t may be that President Taft fore
sees that the country at large is
doomed to defeat in the tariff fight
and his advocacy of a corporation and
ar income tax is counter move
against Aldrich, Cannon ct al.

A MAIDEN IN CALICO.

Over the fence where the sweet fern
grow,
Just to be dried for an acorn pie;
Only a step from the mulberry tree,
Burdened with berries luscious and
ripe,
l buried my treasuse-two coppers
stealthily. fearing the world might
know,
And she was my sentinel tried and
true,
Sweet little maiden in calico.
Laughing she begged in my treaure
box
Room that her trlnkets she might
hide,
Under the cover of fresh-cut sod,
Where my two coppers lay side by
side,
And where I demanded a kiss as pay
For the use of my secret vault be-
low,
She paid me my price with a rosy
cheek
Sweet little maiden in calico.
Many treasure I've seen since then,
Many maiden with laughing eye,
But not one has sought out my treas
ure box
Where the secrets of love in its
keeping lie.
And at night when 1 sit in my cozy
chair,
Watching the spirits in the fires
glow,
The prettiest fancy the flames give
forth
Is sweet little maiden in calico.
-Innis G Osborn, in the Bohemian.

AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE.

When President Taft sent to con-
gress his message advising corpora
ton tax and the changing of the con-
stitution so as to permit Of an income
tax he made some history. That eth
er one Of his suggestions will be ad-
opted by the present congress seems
doubtful Possibly the suggestions
were made with full knowledge that
favorable action would not be taken.
But the mere fact that the president
has officially advised the imposition
OF a corporation tax and also believes
in tax upon incomes is Of signifi-
canoe.
In this country economic conditions
are now such that something must be
done to further a greater equalization
o. wealth. Society is unbalanced.
There are too many enormous un-
earned fortunes. Something must be
done to right matters or there will be
a crash. It is the part Of wisdom to
adjust matters gradually 30 as to
avoid serious business or political dis
turbances. It is when those who, are
sitting on the top Of the economic
pile arbitrarily object to any change
whatever that explosions occur.
How TO handle the situation in the
United States is very naturally diff
ficult problem. But the imposition Of

was 71,947 men-small armies when
compared with those that were to
meet in later years.
IT would be difficult indeed for the
most erudite military scientist to de-
termlne the exact cause or causes Tor
the defeat of Napoleon at Waterloo.
1t has been an open question from
the very twilight of the battle, but
not one of the military authorities
has ever even so much as hinted that
dissipation had anything to do with
the downfall Of the Little Corporal"
Up to that time there had not been
blot on his military genius.
The preponderance of opinion ap-
pears to be that series of fateful ac-
cidentts turned the tide Of battle in
favor OF wellington. Not the least
of these was the catastrophe at the
Sunken Road. However, so profound

has said that Destiny settled the con-
flict.
"The shadow of mighty hand Is
cast over Waterloo" wrote this ia

that day the perspective of the hu-

FINE WEATHER.

Every day the present weather con-
tinues golden bushels are added to the
wheat yield that will be harvested this
summer. The occasional showers that
have fallen during the past few days
have been most beneficial and the
warm cloudy weather has been the
same. Under the present weather con-
ditions the growing grain has an op-
portunity to fill out whereas hot,
sunshiny weather would ripen the
grain too quickly and cause the yield
to be lessened.

A SHOCKING AFFAIR.

The people of this city were shocked
yesterday by the news of the murder
Gus work INDUCED in by a drunken
colored porter at Shaniko. Owing to
the fact thai both the victims of the
unfortunate affair are we'll known to
the people of this city and both are
popular men, indignation has been
unusually keen. 1t is to be regretted
that such dastardly gun plays cannot
be abolished. In the present case the
mischief has already been done, but
it will be a wholesome lesson for the
future if the fellow who did the
bloody work can be quickly captured
and punished as his crime merits.

1 see your white arms gliding
In music DER the keys,
Long dropping lashes hiding
A blue like summer seas;
The sweet lips wide asunder,
That tremble as you sing,
could not choose but wonder
You seem so fair a thing.
For all these long years after
The dream has never died;
1 still can hear your laughter,
Still see you at my side;
One lily hiding under
The waves Of golden hair;
could not choose but wonder
You were so strangely fair.
I keep the flower you braided
Among those waves Of gold;
The leaves are sere and faded,
And. like your love, grown old.
Our lives have lain asunder,
The years are long, and yet,
I could not choose but wonder,
