 Thank you, Miss Hope. You don't realize all you've done for me-" said Bud seriously. Its a wonderful thing to find a girl who believes in man. You've taught me a lot, Miss Hope. Thank you"
 "Goodby, Mir. Haines. Come to- night" she said as she turned and hur- ried away.
 Bud Haines stood looking after her thoughtfully.
 What a stunning girl she is! I've seemed to overlook her, with the rush of events-and Carolina" he murmur- ed softly. We never were such very great friends, yet she believes in me. What beauty she is!'
 A messenger boy broke in on his musings with a letter for Senator Langdon marked Important"
 Guess I'm secretary enough yet to answer this" he thought, tearing 1t open.
 Great heavensg' he exclaimed as he read it. Here's the chance to get to the bottom of this Altacoola proposi- tion. It's from Peabody"
 Haines read the following:
 Dear Senator Langdon-I am going to Philadelphia tonight. Urgent call from Q company for which I am counsel, so probably won't be able to confer with you regarding the committees choice for the naval base. But know you are for Alta coola and trust to you to do all you can for that site I of course consider the matter definitely settled.
 This situation will enable Langdon to bluff Peabody and draw out of him all the inside of the Altacoola business ought to anyway. Guess some Gulf City talk will smoke him out"
 Haines rushed out and across the hall, to reappeaT literally hauling in a stenographer b. he scruff of the neck Here, you, take this dictation-record time," he cried:

 "I only asked this so-that you would not disgrace me-" she pleaded.
 Disillusioned at last, robbed of his lifelong optimism, shorn of his ideals, even his love-for he began to despise this beautiful, misguided woman- Halnes sat broken in spirit, thinking how quickly the brightness of life fades to blackness. "Very we'll" he said sadly. Il sup pose you are innocent. I'll save you If they're alI-your father, too-crook- ed, why shouldn't be crooked? All right; won't say anything"

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

The report submitted by the grand
jury Saturday but proves the diff
Guilty of enforcing a law requiring ab-
solute prohibition. Only two indict-
ments for selling liquor illegally were
returned by the grand jury. Yet it is
a matter of almost common knowledge
that the law is being openly violated
in Pendleton and doubtless in all
other towns in the county. What do
Pendleton's 12 or 13 near beer" sa-
looms exist for if not to sell liquor?
Yet the grand jury which Investigate.
ed the cases last week was one of the
best the county has ever had. 1t was
composed largely of stalwart prohi-
bitionists. They were intelligent men
and they had full power to summon
witnesses and to investigate affairs to
the limit. They tried to do their
duty.
But not only is liquor being sold in
Pendleton. An enormous legitimate
mail order" business is being carried
on. It is we'll known that former
local saloonman, now located at Pas
co, is doing an enormous liquor busi-
ness with the people Of the city. He
ships beer by the barrel to individual
purchasers. Walla Walla, 1t is said
sells this county $4,000 worth Of
beer each month.
From the liquor business now car
ried on Pendleton gets no revenue.
The liquor men keep the $4,000 they
formerly paid the city. They have
turned lawbreakers, it is true, but they
think it alright to break the prohi-
bition law If they can. They have
made lawbreakers out of half the
Of the city.
Now would 1t not be better to let
the pendulum swing back a trifle by
legalizing the liquor business yet un-
der such rigid restrictions that the
moral welfare Of the public would be
fully protected? This paper thinks
it would.

SCANDAL.

A woman to a holy father went:
Confession of her sins was her intent;
And so her misdemeanors, great and
small
She faithfully rehearsed them all;
And chiefest in her catalogue of sin,
She owned that she tale-bearer had
been,
And borne a bit of scandal up and
down
To all the long-tongued gossips in the
town oz
The holy father for her other sins
Granted the absolution asked Of him;
But while for all the rest he pardon
gave,
He told her this offence was very
grave,
And that to do fit penance she must go
out by the wayside, where the thistles
grow,
And gather the largest, ripest one,
Scatter it seeds, and that when this
was done,
She must come back again another
day
To tell him; his commands she must
obey.
Feeling right glad she had escaped
so well,
Next day but one she went the priest
to tell;
The priest sat still and heard her
story through,
Then said: There's something still
for you to do;
Those little thistle-seeds which you
have sown
I bid you do re-gather, every one"
The woman said: But, father, t
would be vain
To try to gather up those seeds again;
The winds have scattered them both
far and wide
Ger the meadowed vale and mountain
side"
The father answered: MAY I hope
from this,
The lesson I have taught you will not
miss?
You cannot gather back the scattered
seeds,
Which far and wide will grow to nox-
ious weeds,
Nor can the mischief once by scandal
sown
BY any penance be again undone."

a RECLAMATION TRIUMPH.

on Thursday of this week, il tn,
program is followed the great Gunni
son tunnel will be formally opened
and the event will mark one of the
reclamation services most brilliant
triumphs. 1t will be signal triumph
for the service for the reason tnar
private capital and also the state OF
Colorado had previously tried in vain
to do the work.
By the great tunnel the water of the
turbulent Gunnison river will be
drawn for six miles through a noun
tain range and made to flow out upon
the Uncompahgre valley watering
10000 acres of arid land. In the
past the waters of the Gunnison have
gone to waste, the river flowing
through a great granite gorge. the
Black Canyon and finally into the
sea. At the same time 1900 acres
of splendid land lay 10 miles away
dry and barren for want of the one
lacking element water.
To build the Gunnison tunnel was
no small task. 1t was a daring un-
dertaking and it furnished work for
daring men backed by the strength of
great government. To survey the
Gunnison river as it dashed through
the Black Canyon was a heroic task
in itself. Previous to the time the
terrible canyon was traversed by the
reclamation engineers no man, white
or Indian, had ever gone through the
canyon and lived to tell the tale of
his trip.
In order to gather data as to the
canyon, for use in planning the pro-
ject, two engineers, Terrence and Fell
lows, went through weeks of torture
Every day of their trip they took their
lives in their hands. Several times
they had to plunge over waterfalls
without having the faintest idea as 10
where or upon what they would
strike. They had no way of escape
for they could not retrace their way
up stream nor could they scale the
perpendicular walls reaching upward
to a height of $500 feet on either side.
They had to go through the canyon.
But the engineers won out and the
great tunnel was built The water
will soon be flowing out over the
parched valley where in the future
there will be homes for $4,000 peo-
pie. 1t is the intention to have the
formal opening September 2S, Presl-
dent Taft touching the electric key
that will unlock the mammoth gate.
There are some who speak in scorn-
full terms of governmental irrigation.
What do they think of the Gunnison
tunnel?

THE TIME is RIPE.


President Taft's ultra conservative
attitude upon such important matters
as the tariff conservation, etc, in
. creases the need of a realignment of
poplitical parties and may bring such
about. It will be we'll if it does for the
present alignment is farcical.
The republican party is the conser-
vative party. But fortunately for the
party it had eight years under a pro-
gressive leader, Roosevelt. So it re-
mained strong with the people and
when Taft, a professed progressive, u"
was nominated as Roosevelts sue
eessor, he was elected.
But Taft has shown himself to be
"standpatter," not a progressive.
He has locked arms with the leader
o. the senate who stands as the rep
resentative Of the monied interests
and mas no sympathy with the public
a. large.
He has taken the life out of the
Roosevelt conservation movement by
turning down the men who want to
make conservation something really
effective. Lastly the president has de-
clared the Payne-Aldrich tariff good
tariff and says that the valiant In
surgents," like LaFollette, Doliver
Beveridge, Nelson, Borah ct al, are
not republicans.
But the progressive senators and
representatives need not fear even If
the president does read them out OF
the party. 1t so happens that with
millions of people the term progress
sive" sounds better than either re
publican" or democrat" In this day
and age it means nothing definite 10
say that man is a republican.
republican may be anything, from
Aldrich, Hale or Cannon, to LaFol-
lette, Cummins or Beveridge. A dem
ocrat is usually a southerner or Of
southern descent.
But when man is called a "pro-
gressive" it means something. 1t
means that he is Of liberal tendencies;
that he refuses to be bound down by
the weight Of tradition and thinks
more about serving his constituents
than about party solidarity" He is
for the welfare Of the general public
and refuses to be a tool for the great
financial interests.
It would be well for the country II
the "progressives' Of both great po-
Iitical parties would throw off their
wornout party cloaks ana Join hands
in a new party. If President Taft
continues his course a realignment
may come about. It is long overdue
already II a realignment does not
occur one Of two things will happen.
The "progressives" will seize control
OF the republican party. or at least
get another progressive leader; or else
the democratic party will be placed
in power. The republican party can
