MIR. RICE REMAINS.

Pendleton cannot afford to lose men
Of the calibre of G.. NJ. Rice and there-
fore it is a welcome announcement
that he will not leave. He will con-
tinue as the head of the First ma
tional bank even though he has the
opportunity of going to the metropo-
lis under very favorable circumstance
es. Usually when the call of the city
comes to local men as it came to Mr..
Rice they leave this place for the
larger business center. But the fact
that Mr.. Rice is to remain shows that
Portland does not always win.

NO GEOGRAPHICAL CHANGE.

At this time the question of a geo.
graphical location for the branch asy-
lum is not up. That point has been
settled. The state board is merely
striving to find the very best possible
building site near this city. 1t is
right the board should do this.
In seeking out a proper building
site the board is acting deliberately
as it should do. Captain Murphy,
engineer at the asylum at Salem, has
been here for several days making
a technical inspection of the various
local sites. The governor has ap-
pointed a committee Of five to visit
the sites and the legislature will send
a similar committee. OF the men
named by the governor three are for
mer superintendents of the asylum
at Salem and so should understand
the needs of the branch institution.
After they have looked over the sew
eral local building sites doubtless they
will be able TO say which is the most
satisfactory. Then the work of es-
tablishing the branch asylum may be
proceeded with.
There should be no need Of reopen
ing the question Of the geographical
location Of the institution. In an open
contest it has been thoroughly proven
that from standpoint of climate, al
titude and transportation Pendleton
is far and away the best location for
the asylum. We do not have the rig
ii winters that prevail east of the
Blue mountains. This is a central
point with reference to eastern Ore
gon and so is the economical location
for the asylum. Then it is doubtful
If the asylum could now be located
elsewhere even if the board desired
to make a change. a state institu-
ton once located cannot be easily
changed.

TIME FOR A CHANGE.

Now that the affairs of the food
and dairy commissioner are up for
investigation the legislature should so
to the bottom of the matter. The
administration of that office in this
state has been a farce. BY the ma
ture of things the food and dairy
commissioner has work of the ut
most Importance to do. He should
be a man technically fitted to do that
W ork and he should be willing to
work fearlessly and fairly for the
public welfare. on the contrary Mr..
Bailey is not a technical man but an
old time politician who fell into a
soft snap and has held on to it. His
administration of affairs has become
SO rank that his deputies have re-
signed and some very bad disclos-
ures are being made with reference
10 Bailey personally. 1t is time for
a new deal in that office.

JUST WATCH.

A man from Boston has laid down
some rules as to how women should
dress and in commenting upon the
came the Spokesman Review offers
the following:
Heretofore women have not dress
ed by rules, but by dressmakers.
They did not purchase what was be-
coming. but what they could not af-
ford. Henry Turner Bailey. one OF
Boston's best known artists, perceiv-
ed the t2!.acy here and promptly set
about to devise prescriptions by which
any woman could dress according to
esthetic standards and still keep
within her income.
Horizontal lines for tall; vertical
lines for the short; a one-color scheme
for the stout; mixed goods for the
lean; women with large feet should
never wear tan shoes, and puffs
should never be worn because they
are false.
These rules give an indication oi
Mr.. Bailey's philosophy. He would
have women dress for reason rath.
er than for style. He would Great,
individuality in dress, rather thar
conspicuousness. He would take tn,
milliners and modistes from the path
OF whimsical irresponsibility and plac'
them in the hobble skirt Of exac

BETHLEHEM.

The court yard o. the great khan
and the open rooms around IL were
crowded with travellers, rousing from
their nights rest and making ready
for the days journey. In front of the
stables, half followed in the rock be-
side the inn, men were saddling their
horses and their beasts of burden, and
there was much noise and confusion.
But beyond these, at the end of the
line, there was a deeper grotto in the
rock, which was used only when the
nearer stalls were full At the en-
| trance of this an ass was tethered,
and a man of middle age stood in the
doorway.
The sad shepherd saluted him and
told his name.
Il am Joseph, the carpenter of Naz-
areth," replied the man. Have you
also seen the angels of whom your
brother shepherds came to tell us?"
81 have seen no angels" answered
Ammiel, nor have I any brothers
among the shepherds. But I would

1T is our first-born son." said Jo-
seph, land the Most High has sent
him to us. He IS d marvellous child:
| great things are fore;oid of him You
may go in, but quietly, for the child
and his mother Mary, are asleep"
So the sad shepherd went in quietly
His long shadow entered before him,
for the sunrise was flowing into the
door of the grotto. 1t was made
clean and put in order, and a bed of
straw was laid in the corner on the
ground.
The child was asleep, but the moth
er was waking for she had taken him
from the manger into her lap. where
her maiden veil of white was spread
to receive him. And sne was singing
very softly as she bent over him in
happiness and wonder.
Ammiel saluted her and kneeled
down TO look at the child. He saw
nothing different from other young
children. The mother waited for him
to speak of angels, as the other shep-
herds had done. The sad shepherd
said nothing, but only looked, and as
he looked his face changed.

ger and sorrow for his sake" he said
gently.

gladly."-From the sad Shepherd

\ MAN WHO OBEYED.

"Noy let me see if have this story
straight"-it was young school mis-
tress who was speaking. You say
he sat at the train dispatcher's key
board for thirty-six hours; he person
ally directed the transportation of
those thousands of troops then just
as the whole army had arrived at it's
destination an order came to carry it
back; and this same young man did
not give up until the job was finish
ed. How long did you say he was at
his post, seventy-two hours?"
yes" repeated the man Of affairs
who had been relating the incident,
that young fellow was a division su-
-erintendent for the 4. c. railroad
during civil war times and the story
IS that in the midst Of a big rush Of
business his division got orders from
Washington to transport those troops
at once The overworked train dis
patchers went all to pieces and the
rest of the trainmen had a panic.
Things looked pretty blue. But one
/ fellow kept his head-the division su-
perintendent He sat down at the
dispatcher's key, rolled off those
trains one by one. and never gave up,
they say. until every Yankee soldier
was past the last switch. Then, like

/ did not let up until he got those
Yanks on free soil again and every
engine back in the round house! Now

"I don't know how long he slept
after the tn: ee days job was over"
/ the man concluded, but when he

Marvin Hughitt have been the chief
factor in the phenomenal success Of

how valuable tits in dyspepsia, catarrh.

Many thousand pounds of this root are

UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE.

Insurance. is based upon statistics
that determine the frequency with
which a risk would be likely 20 avail
itself Of the guarantee. No adequate
statistics concerning unemployment,
nor long-established systems for pre-
miums aid indemnties, exist. 1t has
been affirmed that the need for in
surance might depend upon the in
sured person himself and that the
employed workman could easily cause
himself to be dismissed, so that he
could receive money without work
The objection has also been made that
in other forms of insurance there can
be a restoration of the damage sus-
tanned, and that the remedy for un-
employment ought to be work offer
ed, instead of payments for not work
ing, and that the question would still
be open as to whether the insured
should accept work that might be dis
tasteful to him. These objections are
considered today as having been dspos-
ed of by reflections along this line:
Modern statistics of unemployment
are imperfect but life, fire, transport,

only in the course Of time. Even the
imperfect statistics of unemployed to-

which to work. Herr DR.. Jestrow
says, than the statistics were at the
