MEN BUILD CITIES.

Postmaster NJ. +. Davis. of Union,
IL speech at La Grande, recently
said: Men build cities. 1t is well
10 have good resources, but resources
without the right kind of men to
handle them never build a city,
while on the other hand the right
kind Of men with very few resources
frequently build very large and heal
thy cities.'
This is absolutely true. All over
the west there are towns and cities
that testify to this effect. Certainly
natural advantages do much towards
making a city grow. But there is a
human element that enters into the
upbuilding of any city or any state.
IF the community spirit is optimistic
and aggressive a city will usually go
ahead. If Shat spirit is pessimistic
or ultra conservative stagnation will
ensure.
Towns are built; they do not grow.

All Hail to King Apple.

"Some fine day there will probably
be a horticultural book of peerage,
and then the question will be set

a leading editorial, headed king APP
pie and the Apple Show" adding:
"But just now there is King Cotton.
King Wheat His Golden Majesty the
Corn and Our Royal Highness the
Apple. The reigning monarch de-
pends largely upon what district a
grower Of crops happens to inhabit.
But when that book is written it is
dollars to doughnuts that in this part
of the country the eternal fealty will
be pledged to the apple.
For while the apple spelled the
downfall of Eve, it has spelled the
ascendency of the northwest and the
inland empire. In fact, by industry
and thrift and enlightened methods the
northwest has made an apple all its
own. And the National Apple show
which has now come to be an estab-
lished Spokane institution, without "a
counterpart i'm the expositions of the

fact.

AS TO SOCIALISM.

President Taft is concerned over
the question of socialism. He sees in
the growing strength of socialistic
sentiment a menace to the country,
So do other men. In his speech at
Jackson. Mich. the president but re-
flected the feeling Of conservatives
the country over. They are afraid
OF socialism.
on the other hand there are men
who do not fear socialism itself, but
feel apprehensive as TO the manner
in which the problem is to be met.
To this class of people socialistic ideas
are as a great lake fed by a gradually
increasing stream. The problem is
how to provide suitable outlets. Wa
ter will seek its level. If the lake is
but wisely drained all will be well.
l. the flood is held back too long the
dam will break and the country be
devasted.
Is it not folly to worry over So
cialism in the abstract? To an ex-
tent at least socialism is already up
on US. It has been for years. Is not
our postal system socialistic? Is not
governmental ownership Of railroads,
which now prevails in Europe and
to slight extent in America, social
istic? Is it not socialistic for muni-
cipalitles to own such utilities as wa
ter and lighting systems? May not
the policy of governmental reclama-
ton be classed as socialistic? Have
any OF these things hurt the country.
They have not. On the contrary they
have been extremely beneficial.
But socialism thus far has been a
gcod thing because it has been prop
erly handled II has come gradually
.ud orderly. Water is a blessing
when it flows through river channels
or through irrigation bitches. It is
only Injurious when it gets out Of
bounds and becomes q flood.
Socialism as advocated by the So
c.alist party may well be considered
d menace The socialists are ex-
tremists. They would take down all
barriers and 50 bring on confusion
and destruction. But the American
people will never take up with such
a course. They do not want to dc
away with the institution of property
or TO abolish the reward for individua
effort.
But people do want to see more
Just distribution Of wealth. Their,
are ways Of bringing this about. Regu
lstions Of corporations by means o
commissions tends towards this end

out in good faith and not be mad

DEAD.

Breathes there a man with a soul so
dead,
Who never to himself has said:
MY trade of late is getting bad,
I'll try another ten-inch ad.'
If such there be. go mark him We'll;
For him no bank account shall swell
No angels watch the golden stair
To welcome home the millionaire
The man who never asks for trade
By local line or ad displayed,
Cares more for rest than worldly
gain,
And patronage but gives him pain,
Tread lightly, friends; let no rude
sound
Disturb his solitude profound.
Here let him live in calm repose,
Unsought except by men he owes
And when he dies. go pant him deep
That naught may break his dreamless
sleep;
Where no rude clamor may dispel
The quiet that he loved so we'll
And when the world may know us

..SNAILWAY" MAIL SERVICE.

With the increasing number of
trains in and out of Pendleton the
railway mail service seems to grow
worse. At this time the country be-
tween Walla walla and this city is
served no better than it was in the
early days when stage coaches carried
the mail For years the East Ore
gonian has gone to Adams, Athena,
Weston. Milton and walla Walla on
the evening train the day of publ
cation. Now if the paper reaches
that section by mail it must lay in the
local office for u hours and see two
trains depart before getting away.
Under the present system it takes two
days for mail to go from this city to
rural route patrons running out Of
towns between Pendleton and Walla
Walla. This is poor service and is
iaconvenient for everybody. What is
the matter, is the government trying
to economize? If so then further
economy might be accomplished by
taking the mail cars off the passenger
runs and attaching them to freight
trains.

ON MONDAY 18TH

Christmas falls on Sunday this year
and there seems to be some uncertainty
among people whether the great church
festival shall,be observed on that day
or on the day following Our business
people, however, who set the pace in
such matters unreseryedly declare that
so far as they are concerned their
places of business will be closed on
Monday. The banks and the post Of
fee will also be closed on that day, a
course which will be general through.
out the country.
All the calendars that indicate the
holidays designate Monday as the reg
ulaI Christmas holiday.
One of the officials of the Pennsyl.
yania Railroad company. who was at
South Danville yesterday, stated that
while no orders had as yet been issued
to that effect he was of the opinion
that following custom the Pennsy will
authorize the observance of Monday
as Christmas and that only such work
as is absolutely necessary will be per
formed on that day.
1t was learned that both the Read.
ing and the ID. l.. Il W. Railroad
companies following custom will OBJ.
serve Monday.
1t is not improbable that the manu-
featuring industries Of town will fol
low the general example and close
down their plants on Monday. Christ
mas. with its special church service,
its feasting, its exchange of gifts and
greetings possesses features that may
or may not be compatible with the
observance of Sunday, according as it
is viewed by rigid Sabbatarians or

WORK SUSPENDED

Hope of completing the macadam
this fall has been practically abandon
ed Notwithstanding the falling snow
the woIkmen kept on the job during
Monday. The bed of snow yesterday,
of course, made it necessary TO suspend
all work, and there is no telling when
the weather conditions will be such as
to make it possible to resume.
The excavation is very nearly com
pleted, and the course of cTushe d lime
stone is laid between the intersection
of Wall street and the stretch of high
way already macadamized by the State
hospital for the insane. This will
leave the road from Wall street east

ter travel. Between Wall and Foust
steets. where excavation is i'll pro-
gress, however. conditions are likely
to become very bad daring the winter.
From Wall street eastward the troll.
ley track has been moved over toward
the canal some twenty inches, which
increases the width OF the roadbed
giving it sixteen feet.
Or course, there is bare possibility
that the work may go forward yet
