STEVENSON PLAYED THE GAME

\ story about Robert Louis Steven
son not generally known Is told by
Mrs. Stevenson's grandson. Austin
Strong When Mr.. Strong was a lit
tie chap Mr.. Stevenson liked to sit
propped up in bed to watch him at
play in the next room. And often IL
happened that the bigger boy of the
two would make suggestions for the
make-bclieve games and insist that
they be carried on too one day Aus
tin had arranged some chairs in row
playing that they were ships, and he,
standing on the front. was the cap
tain. For a long time he proudly
walked the deck of his vessel. en-
countered pirates and weathered all
kinds of storms until he felt the floor
positively heave under his feet. Mr..
Stevenson looked on in perfect silence.
but complete absorption, no doubt
playing the whole thing much the
harder of the two. Finally Austin
got tired of his vessel climbed off his
chair ana began walking across the
room to some object which had at
tractcd his interest This was too
much for his uncle still deep i'm the
game. Mr.. stevenson rose i'm his sick
bed ana shouted excitedly at the re-
calcitrant sea captain. "Swim, you lit
tie rascal; swim!"-Argonaut

CORRECTING INJUSTICE.

Spokane has again obtained ia
vorable decision from the interstate
commerce commission and as a result
will become better situated to COM
pete with coast cities for jobbing
trade. If the petition filed by Pen
dleton and other small cities of the
inland empire are granted by the
commission then practically the en-
tire inland empire will share in the
benefits of the ruling.
For some time past the rulings Of
the interstate commerce commission
have all been favorable to the cities
and towns that have suffered through
the Unjust terminal rate system that
has been in force. Spokane has been
steadily winning in its fight for equal
rights with the coast cities while Re-
no and Utah points have been win
ming out also.
Unless the interstate commerce
commission is hindered by unfair
legislation or the commission be-
comes packed with men favoring the
coast cities It seems certain that in
terror points will ultimately win out
completely. They will if justice pre-
walls. If the government is to regu-
late freight rates there is but one rule
TO follow. Rates must be fixed in
accordance with distance or in other
words charges for railroad service
must be in accordance with the cost
Of such service It is not fair to make
Interior points pay operating expens-
es and dividends for the railroads
while the big coast cities reap the
chief benefits from the service that
Is rendered
Of course It is argued that water
competition must be met. But why
so? II steamships can handle freight
cheaper than can the railroads why
not allow the steamship lines to do
so? Manifestly it is unjust to inland
points to be forced to pay high freight
rates in order that railroads may
give coast cities rates that are un-
profitable in themselves

IMPORTANT DUTY.

Let every camper and every casual
visitor to the forest district lend all
possible assistance i'm preventing the
possibilities of forest fires
Thousands of dollars worth of
valuable trees are burned each year
simply because of carelessness in not
properly extinguishing camp fires or
for some other reason that might be
avoided.
Vast tracts of timber land are de-
spoiled of their trees by fires which
could be prevented were as much
care exercised by campers and 9TH
ers as there is in the city.
The lumber industry is one which
benefits thousands of people and to
have timber destroyed by fire is a
wanton waste that due diligence
should never permit.
The matter of protection from for
est fires has been and is being
brought to the attention Of western
states by many public spirited citi-
zens and their work certainly is in a
splendid cause.

READY TO REPORT.

1t is announced by the committee
named to consider the county divis-
ion issue that it will be ready to re-
port at the regular monthly meeting
of the Commercial club next Tues
day evening. Evidently the commit
tee has something to offer upon this
subject Just what this is will be dis
closed next Tuesday.
Certainly it is gratifying to know
that the committee is at last ready
to report. Time is flying by and it
will not be long until election day
will be at hand. If Pendleton and
Umatilla county are going to fight
division as fight they must, then it is
time to don the "war clothes" and
make ready for the fray.
BE out Tuesday night, Mr.. Citizen,

\ STAMP HENAGERIE.

Many of the postage stamps Of the
different countries bear pictures of
animals. Arranging the stamps ac-
cording to the design they bear the
philantelist can gather considerable
menagerie.
The 3-cent Canadian stamp Of 1851
bears beaver. Newfoundland issues
Of 1856 have the seal and the Goldfish
The seal on these stamps is, however,
queer creature for a museum Of
freaks, inasmuch as he had claws like
tiger. In 1880 the government had
the seal redrawn from flippers. In
1887 the Newfoundland dog appears
on the half cent stamp.
In the United States in 1869 the
horse was printed in brown on the q
cent stamp and in the Omaha issue,
the year of the fair. appeared two
more animals. the bull and the buff
falo.
In the Eastern Hemisphere the ami
nal stamps are more numerous and
strange. China furnishes a fish, a
scagull and a dragon. Across the In
dian Ocean, in the Congo State, one
finds the elephant on the 1-franc
stamp Liberia furnishes the hippo
tamus on the 2-cent stamp.
on the stamps Of Nyssa there is
depicted the spotted giraffe. In Egypt
there is utilized for the Sudanese
stamps the camel and in the French
Congo the design embraces n picture
of the leopard.
The stamps of North Borneo afford
four more animal specimens-the
deer, the peacock, the crocodile and
the monkey.
