VERY HOPEFUL.

With the four and half inches Of
rainfall already this season it seems
certain that the two years drouth has
been broken and that in Umatilla
'county at least we will have more
than normal precipitation for the
season.
In the situation at present there is
much room for felicitation. A proper
rainfall is all that eastern Oregon
needs to obtain bumper crops. The
soil Of this section Is abundantly rich.
Good crops may be raised every year
when there is enough moisture or
when by proper methods of tillage
the moisture is conserved in the soil.
l. is the lack Of moisture that makes
summerfallowing so prevalent in east
ern Oregon. The land itself needs no
rest thought it would be improved by
rotation of crops.

HEARD SOMETHING DRAP.

There are many darkies of the old
sort in the south who make it point
to pride themselves upon their re-
markable memory touching remote
events and persons long since dead.
To one such a Richmond man was
putting a series of questions in a spir-
it Of banter. To his query as to
whether she remembered George
Washington. the old woman replied
that she did, indeed, having served
Martha Washington in a domestic
capacity
Then was put an Interrogation con-
cerning the Revolutionary war, which
the old woman recalled perfectly.
Finally the questioner said: 'Tll
wager you DON'T remember the fall
of the Roman empire"
At that the old woman took a good,
long breath and reflected. Then she
replied:
DE fac is, sab, was pretty young
den. an 50 | doesn't have no very dis
tink remembrance bout dat. But
does remember. now dat you speaks
of it. dat 1 did hear de white folkses
tell bout hearin' somethin drap."-

WE ARE NOT AFRAID.

The knocker we have with us al
ways and so it is not surprising that
he has raised his woeful wall against
the plan of the Washington & ore
gon traction company to enter this
city Some of the criticisms heard,
though. are too near the limit to be
endured.
That company has franchise"
exclaimed sad Face excitedly. that
gives them the right to build street
car line on any street in the city If
i: would DO that and an opposition
company should enter the field we
would have two tracks upon every
street"
sad. sad indeed is the predicament
into which Pendleton has fallen. A
possibility of two or more street car
lines upon every street in town! 1t is
Ia wretched outlook for sure With
even one car track upon each street
in the city the situation would be
deplorable enough Mrs. Jones' brin-
die COW would then have to go else
where than to the thorouhghfares of
the west end to find good pasture. The
small boys on Johnson street could
no longer play football in safety IN
front of their homes, the Lewis street
horse shoe pitching tournament would
have to be abandoned and the bull
deg that bites at the automobiles
would have to look out or get hit by
la trolly car 1t is a fearful outlook
indeed and sad Face does we'll to
shiver with fright at the very thought
of two car lines upon every street
liz the city.
However it is comforting to know
that there are not many sad Faces in
Pendleton. The bulk of our people
are well informed, progressive men
and women. They know that cities
are seldom burdened with too many
traction systems and that property
owners do not usually object when
street car lines are built in front of
their property.

They said. Yes, and you must kiss
HIM"
Well, I'm sure I'd never miss him.
He's fright!
He's so small it's just amazing.
And you'd think that he was blazing,
He's so red;
And his nose is like a berry.
And he's bald as Uncle Jerry.
On his head.
He's no kind Of good whatever,
And he cries as If he'd never,
Never stop;
Won't sit up-you can't arrange him;
oh. why doesn't father change him
At the shop?
Now we've got to dress and feed him.
And we really didn't need him,
Little frogi
And I can not think why father
Should have bought him, when I'd
rather
Have a dog!
