PARENT AND CHILD.

Woe betide the people which belit-
ties its homes! Happy the people
which magnifies it's homes! Homes
are not of set purpose minimized, but
unless they be consciously and pur-
posely magnified, minimized they will
become Belittled and dishonored is
the home which is conceived by par
ents to be a place wherein children
are to be housed and fed and clothed
and amused, and nothing more. Much
to be pitied are children whose par
ents provide board and lodging for
them instead of a home, satisfied to
maintain hotel or feeding place for
their children, starting-point for
school, instead of establishing home.
If children needed nothing more than
food, clothing and shelter, that might
be called a home, which provided
these things, but, while these things
are needful to life, life is not eating
nor drinking nor sleeping. Homes
are not so much places fit for chill
dren to live in as 0laces In which to
fit children for life. Why do multi

hood and womanhood with mean,
lgnoble vision of life? Because in
their homes they have seen a father
absorbed in schemes to get rich in
stead of being enriched with scheme
Of life; because they have been rear
ed by a mother drifting aimlessly up
on the tides Of comfort and self COM
placency instead of being stirred to
struggle vigorously with all the
changes and chances of life. A home
is not made up, it must be UNDER
stood. of things A home fits chill
dren to sit in the saddle and ride
things. Wonder is often expressed
that a a reprobate should be the Off
spring Of a palatial home and a hero
emerge from a hovel. But the rep
rebate may have been homeless amid
the wealth and splendor Of his pa
rental roof, and the hero may have
been well mothered and fathered de-
spite every untoward circumstance.

BECOMING HEALTHIER.

Evidently the civilized world is
learning how to live and so is becom-
ing healthier for the mortality rate
is being lowered.
This conclusion is stated in Census
Bureau Bulletin, 104. on mortality
statisctics for 1908, prepared by DR..
Cressy L. Wilbur, chief statistician
for vital statistics under Director Du-
rand who has transmitted it to Sec
retary Nagle Of the Department Of
Commerce and Labor.
The death rate Of the registration
states Of 1908 was 1873 per 1000 Of
population which was slightly lower
than that for the entire registration
era, 1914 per 1000, and It is the low
est on record DR.. Wilbur states it is
probably the lowest death rate that
has ever occurred in the United States.
The death rate of the rural portions
OF tneSe States was Sliil o"eI, pelns
only IA per 1000, while that Of the
urban population was 16.5 per 1000;
the latter includes all cities having a
population Of 5000 or more inhabi-
tants in 1900, and being, as usual,
somewhat greater than the rural rate.
Such rates would have seemed quite
out of the question few years ago.
The death rate of England and
Wales for 1908 was only 147 per l.
900 of population, and Of London for
the same year, 1873 per 1000. For
each year since 1893 the death rate Of
England and Wales has been less
than is per thousand. with the ex-

WHY NOT BE TRUTHFUL.

1t seems an ever present feature OF
the liquor fight that the truth must
be hopelessly garbled by both sides
to the controversy. Often it occurs
that lies are perpetrated outright In
hopes of making votes for one side or
the other. An instance of this is now
at hand. In the Vancouver Inde>
pendent the following appeared but
few days ago:
Then talk about rigid restrictions
iE Pendleton or Vancouver. For years
Pendleton had the saloons and it is
known fact that the East Oregonian
like our Columbian never once advo-
Gated any restrictions and as a mat
ter of fact openly fought any candl-
date for office who ever suggested
restrictions"
This is about the limit. There is no
paper in the northwest or in the
whole country that has worked more
earnestly than the East Oregonian to
put an end to the evils that attend
the liquor business. 1t was this pa
per that first put the fear of God"
into the hearts of the saloonmen Of
Pendleton and eastern oregon. Tha
average local saloonman still accuses
the East Oregonian of being respon-
sible for prohibition in this county
despite the fact that this paper did
not advocate prohibition. Yet here
Genes the Vancouver Independent, a
devout prohibition organ it seems, and
says that this paper has never urged
restrictions. 1t says this regardless
OF the fact that this paper has been
urging almost daily the adoption of
a plan that looks to closer regulation
of the liquor business than Pendle
ton has under prohibition. The liq-
uor question is hard one to solve.
But the solution would be easier If
those who discuss it would conflne
themselves more closely to the truth.

ORIGIN OF PELLAGRA.

In an article on pellagra in the No
vember McClure's Marion Hamilton
Carter says:
THE disease first made its appear
ance in the vicinity of Lake Mag
giore in the forties of the eighteenth
century, following the introduction of
Indian corn, from Turkey, probably,
as its collaquial name-grano turco-
would seem to indicate.
'In 1850 pellagra broke out stimuli
tane0usly in the districts of Milan,
Brescia, Bergamo and Lodi. As early
as 1916 the board of health of Ven
ice passed laws, based on the view
that the disease was caused by the
use of spoiled corn, forbidding the
sale of it in the markets, or its har
vesting in lands that had been inun-
dated-laws that seem to have had
but little effect in checking the prog
ress of the disease, for Sir Henry
1917, writes that the hospitals were
unable to receive the patients and
the greater portion of these unfor-
tunate people perish in. their own
habitations or linger there, wretch
ed spectacles of faulty and decay
BY 1889 Lombardy alone had twen-
ty thousand cases, and forty years
later the number had more than
doubled.
'In 1881, eight regions of northern
Italy reported 104,067 patients.
These included only the officially
registered.
How many obscure and incipient
cases there were-how many con-
cealed from the authorities-will new
er be known; but 1t is generally con-
ceded that the registration figures
represent only about one out of two
actual sufferers. 1t was then that
the appalling magnitude of the ca
lamity stood revealed-one pellagrin
for every sixty individuals of the ru-
raj population, while Brescla had one
to every forty-one, Cremona one to
every twenty-four."

city of San Francisco. Captain Roald
Amundsen, the noted Arctic mavi-
gator, sailed from Christiana, Norway.
with a crew of seven in the year
1908, and after nearly three years he
succeeded in reaching Nome City by
way of the Northwest passage. From
there he sailed his little vessel out
into the Pacific and thence down the
coast to San Francisco harbor. Later
he returned to Norway. leaving the
"Gjoa' at the Mare Island navy yard.
The little craft was turned over to
the Norwegian consul at San Francis
co by his government. with instruc-

this historic vessel he deemed best.
The consul finally concluded to pre-
sent the "Gjoa" to the city of San
Francisco in behalf of the Norwegian
government to be preserved as rel
ic and souvenir of the feat of Captain
Amundsen in making voyage
through the Northwest Passage.
The city authorities gladly accepted
the gift of the famous old craft and
decided to place the vessel in a con-
spicuous position at the extreme west
tern confines of the Golden Gate
Park, just bordering on the ocean
beach.
The "Gjoa" was fitted into a cradle
of wood, and loose dry sand filled in
all around up to the water line. The
work of hauling the old sloop out of
the sea up the beach for a height of
more than 40 feet and several hun
dred feet across the big boulevard 10
the point where it is mounted in per-
manent position proved a very heavy |
and difficult task of engineering. Sew |
eral days were required to accomplish
this work
The total weight of the empty hun
Of the "Gjoa" is estimated at 300 tons.
The total length over all is IS feet;
length of waterline, 65 feet; beam, 16
feet; depth of hold, 16 1-2 feet, The
'Gjoa" was not primarily intended for
Arctic navigation. When purchased
by Capt. Amundsen, the vessel was
reinforced with stout wooden and iron
beams and sheathed with an outer

EQUAL SUFFRAGE.

1t is comforting to learn that the
American advocates of equal suffrage
do not approve of the English style
of campaigning. In London the usu-
al mode Of procedure is for a band
of women to catch the premier or
some other official in an unguarded
moment, as for instance when he is at
lunch or at a theatre The arguments
in behalf of equal suffrage are then
poured into his ear while a dynamite
bomb and some stuffed clubs are con,
spicuously displayed before his eyes.
The English suffragettes have the an
archists dstanced completely
1t is difficult to understand this
theory of campaigning. It does not
seem the most effective way. Those
who are following such tactics have
certainly "lost their heads" Smiles
and tears are the effective weapons OF
the fair sex and when they are prop
erly used the greatest strongholds will
If the womln of America
really want the ballot they can secure
it any time by merely asking for 1t,
In Oregon this question is decided by
popular vote and it goes without say,
ing that equal suffrage will be voted
whenever the ladies want it. But
there are many, very many, who do
not care for the ballot.

EXTEND THE PROJECT.

The move to invite the members of
the oregon delegation to come to this
city to discuss the question of further
reclamation work is certainly timely
Ii now appears that additional funds
will soon be ready for expenditure in
Oregon. This being the case the gov
ernment men should be impressed with
the fact that Umatilla county desires
the extension of the Umatilla project.
If we do not ask for the extension it is
not likely it will be made.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1909-11-01

It is difficult to see how Umatilla
county could lose by building an elec-
trio line from one end of the county
to the other end. on the other hand
there are a thousand reasons why
such a road would work for the ad-
vancement of the county and would
be a good investment for local people.
