GARD CLUBS FIRST MEETING,

The battles for the pickle dish once
more are under way,
The Uno Pedro Club is first and fore
most in the fray.
1t started off auspiciously, without a
sign of frown
Good Mrs. Green nut all at ease by
kissing Mrs. Brown.
Then Mrs. Johnson graciously kissed
Mrs. Jackson's lips,
And Mrs. Watson followed suit by
kissing Mrs, Phipps;
Then all formality was dropped, and
everyone grew CHEEKY
When Mrs. Rich, the president, called
Mrs. Bilkins "dearie."
l can't describe the sweetness and the
tenderness displayed,
No one remarked that Mrs. Gray was
once a lady's maid;
With arms around each others waists
they sat and planned things
out
And everyone was loving and no one
wore a pout.
l listened to her story, and gentle
smile | wore,
I'd heard of kissing women and OF
loving ones before,
And l wondered as I heard her rave
about the lovely meeting
Just which of them will be the first
TO be accused of cheating.

THE CURRENT COLD INITIATION

There must be always a money basis
for credit, and the larger the basis
the larger the credit structure pos
sible While it is true that the ere
dit structure may temporarily expand
beyond its normal ratio to the money
basis on which it rests, yet even this
abnormal expansion of deposits is
always inauguarated by an expansion
Of money. 1t is probably that de-
posits in general are now expanding
more rapidly than their monetary
basis. But the source of this infla-
ton is money initiation. and the
source of the monetary initiation is
gold initiation. We must give up our
blind faith in the stability of gold.
While experience has given us all a
keen sense of The dangers of paper
initiation, this very fact has led to
overconfidence in gold. We stoutly

FORM \ BAND.

Within the past few weeks there
has been somewhat Of a revival in To-
cal musical circles The city now has
two orchestras where it formerly had
but one and they are both good or
ganizations. Now why cannot a good,
strong local band be formed and
maintained as permanent COM
pany? There are scores of musicians
and among them some highly compe-
tent players. with the proper CO.
operation and leadership it should be
possible to organize a band and
good one. Pendleton should have
such a band. This city will support
a good band and support it gener-
ously. Then the right sort of band
could secure much business from
other places throughout eastern Ore
gon. 1t could play for many of the
fairs and celebrations held in this
part of the state, thereby earning
money for the bandsmen and serving
as a creditable advertisement for
Pendleton. 1t is up to the musicians
to get busy.

THE LOST GATEWAY.

With little firm hands that knew no
wrath
Under the burdock shadows,
They thrust me forth in the after
math, into the weary mead
Into the weary meadows again.
On the skirts of the sorrowful CITY.
To find the pathway trodden of men.
With little firm hands in the after
math.
Little firm hands that knew no
All! but they knew no pity.
| found the pathway trodden of men.
l found the sorrowful city,
But never the bluebell gateway again.
Never sign of pity:
l am grown as men, and 1 may not sit
Under the burdock shadows:
/ tread the bluebel/ under my feet;
You have slain the heart of a
Child" they said,
You shall never come back with
the Child-heart dead.
Back from the weary meadows. -
Yes, the heart of the Child is slain.
But the memory lives and is cling
ing,
am listening still for the sound in
vain
OF the Little People singing.
Singing just as they used 10 sing.
With the grasshopper's voice as
rally,
In the long. quaint shadows Of eve
ming.
Before the heart of the Child was
slain,
Before sought for the Ring in
vain
Down in the violet valley.

CONSIDER THE MERITS.

In considering the traction move
ment local people should give atten-
ton TO the essential features-the
merits-of the proposition. They
should not be "sidetracked" by any of
the various petty and inconsequental
objections that are raised by parties
who either do not fully understand
the matter or else have personal rea-
sons for opposing the movement.
The essential features of the con-
tract with the washington-Or
traction company are these:
1-Pendleton people are asked to
invest $4,000 in stock of the Wash
ington-oregon Traction company.
2-The first payment Of $4,000 or
two fifths the subscription, becomes
due after the company has built three
miles Of road within the city and vi
cinity and established gasoline-elec-
trio car service.
3-The second payment Of 100000
or two ffths the subscription, becomes
due after the company has built six
miles Of track, established car service
upon the same and provided public
park upon which a minimum of S10,-
600 is to be spent in improvements.
4-The third payment Of $4,000
Or one-Gfth the subscription becomes
due after the company has electrified
its line with electricity from its own
power plant. It agrees to do this with
IN two years time.
5-The Washington n-Oregon Trac-
ton company agrees to spend mini
mum Of 100000 within the next two
years on their line in this city and vi
entity and in developing their power
plant
s-The directors Of the traction
company signed a personal bond in
suri1g that the company will perform
every provision Of its contract I'm
less it does so the directors will re-
turn TO Pendleton subscribers the am.

PROFESSORS PROPHECY FAILED

While a student at Harvard unlver-
sity Phillips Brooks was walking in
the yard one day when a professor,
who asked him what he intended
making of himself
"I am thinking of the ministry"
answered the youth.
'Then Danish such thoughts" said
the professor earnestly. "Your man
ner Of speech would forever bar you
from being successful in that call
ing"
Many years later when p hIlps
Brooks was one of the worlds great
pulpit orators, the most expert ste
nographer in England took down one
Of his sermons and said:
ANY stenographer who thinks he
has conquered fast takers should try
Philips Brooks"

ALL FOR THE CAUSE.

BY the very nature of things solicit
ing work such as the local traction
committee has been doing must be
done in more or less of a haphazard
way. The committeeman are all busy
people and they are taking time from
their private business in order to work
IN behalf of the town. So it is easily
possible the solicitors may make some
mistakes They may slight people
wholly unintentionally. They may not
always use the proper amount of di-
plomacy and tact and so offend peo-
pie.
But no considerations of this sort
should keep people from supporting
the traction movement. In the trac-
ton movement Pendleton has so much
at stake that petty things must not be
allowed to Interfere with the success
full outcome. At times like this when
the public welfare is involved to such
an extent rightminded men will lay
aside everything in the way of per-
scnaI feelings. Prejudices and ami
mosities must be thrown into the
scrap heap. They are unworthy and
must not be allowed to block the ad-
vancement of the city.
If there are minor things you do
not like about the traction movement
or about the way the work is handled
forget them for the sake of the cause

JACK JOHNSON TELLS
OF HIS HARDEST SCRAP

New York.-"What was the hard
est fight I ever nad?" queried
Champion Jack johnson. reminis-
Gently.
We'll, it happened nearly fifteen
years ago. near my old home in CAL
weston. Texas, and 1t was my maiden
battle. was matched with John
Lee who was regarded then as the
heavyweight champion of the south.
He was a veteran of the ring and
/ was only a kid OF II years old; and
the trouble we had in pulling off that
fight didn't add anything TO my con-
fidence.
1--WE were matched to fight on the
beach, near Galveston, but the au-
thorlties got after us and chased us
Il miles into the country. There. in
an open field, the ring was pitched,
and before such spectators as were
able to follow US in our flight, we
went at 1t.
"Say, but that was fight. Lee was
a big colored fellow, who weighed
1856 pounds. while / weighed only lbs
pounds then. The hot sun beat down
and never did remember how l put
that fellow down and out in the sew
enth round. But l know I was a
mighty happy kid when he finally
went down and failed to get up and
sail into me again in that seventeenth
round
after that fight | concluded that
there was more money for me in the
prize ring than in anything else
could do. and | resolved to stick to
IL. For a year or two l swas the
stalking horse in the training camps
of various fighters. | trained with Dan
Creedon, Tom Tracy, Joe Wolcott ana
other fighters.
"Of, course, | was proud to win the
title from Tommy Burns, and l was
glad I was able to defend 1t against
AL Kaufman. Stanley Ketchel and jim
Jeffries: but | don't think / ever got
SO much satisfaction out of any bat
tie in my life as l did when won
over Frank Childs in twelve rouhus'
in Los Angeles, in 1902.
'I worked with Childs when ne was
in training for several of his fights,
while he claimed the colored heavy
weight chcampion of the world, and
the way that fellow treated me was
shame.
"I didn't mind so much what he
tried to do to me in training quarters
but Childs wasn't square with me-
and I could have starved to death FOR
all he cared. -,
"Now. maybe I didn't tell Childs all
about this when l got him going IN
our Los Angeles fight. When l saw
I had him, 1 thought of all the mean
things he had done for me and every
time I handed him one l told him
about IT. | certainly repaid Childs,
with interest, for the dirt he had done
me when 1 practically ended his ring
career.

able to market her Gravensteins in

have been the cause of the demand
for the early varieties from Hood Riv-
er at unusual prices.
The Gravensteins are smooth and
of finer quality than usual. although
the color is not quite so good as is de-
sirable in the red varieties. This Is
not so great fault with the Craven
stems as with the later red varieties,
