GET YOUR FEET WET.

When men like 4. w. Nye and c..
T. strain, who have no property In
Pendleton save their homes, are will
ling to subscribe their money to the
traction movement is it not time for
heavier property owners to give the
matter earnest consideration? The
East Oregonian believes it is and this
paper predicts that within the next
week the big owners, those who own
the choice business locations, the big
suburban tracts and the rows of rent
&c houses, will come forward and do
their part. Their own self interest
demands they do so. The big owners
cannot expect the traction movement
to succeed without their support.
Then it is only right that the heavy
owners should put up the bulk of the
money. They are in position to do
So and besides they will gain most of
the direct good resulting from the
traction system
Come on, gentlemen, the waters
fine. You will like it after you have
once taken the plunge.

WHERE THE COAL GOES.

Who uses most of the coal? First
and foremost Of any single industry,
the railroads consume from 90.OOO,OOO
to 100, 900. 900 tons a year. and these
and steamships probably use nearly
80 per cent of the country,s output,
which IS as much or more than is used
for az! domestic and heating purpos-
es. This leaves approximately one
half of the total production-princi-
pally bitumnous-to be accounted for
bv the industries of the country.
Coal and manufacturing are terms
which are in general practice closely
re.ated. but they are constantly
changing their adjustments, which
affect and are in turn affected by
transportation. For instance. New
York is the greatest manufacturing
state. vet she possesses no coal mines.
on the other hand. West Virg MIA is
the third largest coal producer. but
she has comparatively no manufac-
lures. The time will doubtless come
when West Virginia. with her vast
coal resources, will stop shipping away
all of her fuel. largely to New York
and New EllS Slduu, anu H'N'AiiN -
great manufacturing state. 1t is only
necessary to consult the statistics OF
manufacturing Of any region to arrive
at a close approximation of its rela-
tive coal consumption. Some figures
prepared from the 1905 anthracite
coal output-practically all from
Pennsylvania mines-will convey an
idea of where the country's hard coal
renders It's final accounting. In that
wear New York. New Jersey and
Pennsylvania consumed in round
number 41,OO0,000 tons. Now
England 100000 tons; states west
OF the Ohio river 100000 tons; south
| ern states. 100000 tons, and Can
ada 1000 600 tons. Only 10000 ton;

\ BRIGHT OUTLOOK.

There is good news in the report
this paper published yesterday show
ing that Pendleton has already re-
ceived more than nine inches of rain
since the first of September. 1t is
more moisture than we received all
told during the season Of '0S-'09 and
likewise more than fell during the
year previous to that Undoubtedly
we will get four or five inches more
rain in addition to that received thus
far and if so we will surely get a
bumper wheat crop. Good wheat
crops in this section depend more up
on an abundance of moisture than up
on anything else. The livestock in
dustry is also vitally affected by the
amount of rainfall. The more rain
the more grass is a maxim that sell
dom fails and the outlook at this time
is for ample grass upon the spring
and summer ranges. Sheepmen and
cattlemen who are now feeding out
their hay may well feel optimistic
over the outlook for the coming sum-
mer and for next winter. There will
be a big hay crop to replenish the
stacks that are now being used

LET Us SECURE BOTH.

Tacoma wants more factories in
that city and the newspapers are
working for "smokestack" session
of the Commercial club and the
Chamber of Commerce. In comment.
ing upon the situation the Tacoma
Tribune says:
Tacoma leads in smokestacks. In
crease the lead and keep it. Fac
tories provide payrolls, and payrolls
provide capital for all sorts of busi-
ness enterprises.
"Gumshoe work is good in some in
stances. hut not now, when Seattle,
Everett, Bellingham, Aberdeen, Port
I5nd. Oregon. and other cities have
marshaIed their forces to take unto
themselves the arteries of city
manufactories- must awaken
and do likewise"
After Pendleton gets traction facil-
tiles and more electrical power for
manufacturing purposes a crusade foI
more smokestacks may be undertaken
here. TWO things this city needs to
make it advance, traction lines to
bring in the tributary territory and
factories to build up the city from
within. The traction movement now
or really looks to the accomplish,
rnent of both these ends.

THE COUNTRY CHILD.

The Country Child has fragrances
He breathes about him as he goes;
Clear eyes that look at distances,
And in his cheeks the wilding rose,
The sun. the sun himself win stain
The country face to his own red
The red-gold of the ripening grain,
And bleached to white the curly
head.
He rises to the morning lark,
Sleeps with the evening primroses,
Before the curtain of the dark
Lets down its splendor, starred with
bees.
He sleeps so sweet without dream
Under brown cottage caves and
deep,
His window holds one stray moon
beam
As though an angel kept his sleep.
He feeds on honest country fare
Drinks the clear water OF the
spring.
Green carpets wait him everywhere,
Where he may run, where he may
sing.
He hath his country lore by heart,
And what is friend and what is
foe:
Hath conned Dame Natures book
apart,
Her child since he began to grow.
He keeps his childhood's innocences.
Though his old head he bleached TO
snow,
Forget -me-nots still hold his eyes
And in his cheeks old roses blow.

many people.
Some natures never come to them
selves. never discover their real
strength until they meet with opposi-
ton or failure. Their reserve Of
power lies so deep within them that
any ordinary stlmulous does not
arouse it. But when they are ridi-
culed, sat down upon," or when
they are abused, insulted, a new force
seems to be born in them, and they
do things which before would have
seemed impossible

The momentous fact was that the

basis Of genuine comradeship--and
realized that the more they could set

themselves the better it would be for
everybody.
