not by the gold that was in his pos
session when he died, but by what
he gave to make men better. We are
commanded to lay up treasure In
heaven, where neither moth nor rust
doth corrupt, and where thieves can
not break through and steal. Some
have wondered how can lay up treas
ure in heaven? The poet answered
when he said, Sacrifice is gold in
heaven" Every sacrifice made, every
suffering endured, every cross borne
every days toll for the Kingdom is
that much treasure laid up in heaven
A mans life in Gods day is to be
measured by what he has given to
the world, and not by what he leaves
to his heirs. A mans life in this
world ought to be measured by the
sunshine and joy and success he
brings to others.
l speak moment of Andrew Car
negie, and / must speak carefully
because / know what he has done for
our state and nation. A member of
the English parliament visited this
hardfisted old Scotchman in his
great castle in Scotland. They had
talked long together, and when the
visit ended, the rich man drove with
his guest to the station AS they
went Mr.. Carnagie said bitterly, 81
am not to be envied. How can my
wealth help me? am sixty years old
and cannot digest my food. / would
give you all my millions if you could
give me health and youth" They
went on in silence for a while and
then there came another remark
which the listener declares he can
never forget. With a depth of feel
ing quite indescribable Mr.. Carnegie
said, "If l could make Fausts bar
gain, would. would gladly sell any
thing to have half my life over
again." And his visitor saw his
clinched hands as he spoke. The old
Scotchman had had a vision since
then and has learned something of
this lesson, that Jesus Christ taught
that l am trying to bring to you to-
night. 1t is not the abundance of
the things that man possesseth, but
that which he gives to make the
world better that makes him rich.
This is the reason for the Carnegie
libraries over the state and nation.
There is a saying, AS a man think
eth, SO he is. That has in it a vein
of truth. What a man does has much
to do with his character / remem-
Der a saloonkeeper who gave up the
nefarious business. Some people won
dered at it as they knew he was
making money rapidly. His answer
was, mo man can continue in that
wicked business and retain his char
acter pure" That man thought more
of his character than of gold. 1t is
not gold, but character that makes
men rich. If it were possible a man
might gather all the gold the world
affords, and die a poor. shrivelled,
unmourned mizer, while the world re-
joices that he was gone.
In the great day l do not think
that we will be judged by the gold
or talents or influence or opportun-
tiles that were our in this world but
by the use We made of what we had.

CELEBRATE AND DO 1T RIGHT.

Tomorrow evening the businessmen
OF the city will decide whether or not
the fourth Of July shall be celebrated
in Pendleton this year. It seems
probable that the decision will be in
favor of g celebration since none was
held last year and since it will be pos
sible this year to hold q celebration
such as has never been given here be-
fore.
With the Improvement of the
Roundup park a place is provided
where a big public celebration may
Be held and Witnessed with, some de-
gree of comfort. Tae Roundup sta
dium viii provide a splendid pla-.
for the sports Of the day which may
be witnessed from the big grandstand
which should be completed by that
time The grove along the river viii
also offer possibilities To the commit
tee. In the past the baue of a fourth
Of July celebration in Pendleton has
been the fact that all exercises have
been held on Main street which has
usually been torrid and uncomfortable

\ SENATE WITHOUT 4 ROSS.

For the first time since the civil
war the United States has no real
boss, writes Robert Wickliffe Wool
ley in Success Magazine" Jacob H
Galliuger, Of New Hampshire, may
imagine himself such because he is
chairman Of the republican caucus, or
Boise Peurose Of Pennsylvania, may
claim the title as an appanage Of the
chairmanship Of the great committee
on finance; but the fact is that the
real say-so is vested in neither the
regular republicans nor the regular
democrats. a select but potent min
oricy composed Of the progra ssiyes in
both parties wields the scerter. and
all titles which have heretofore been
indicative Of power are now little
more than mere matters Of form.
This does not necessarily mean that
the people rule in what we are fond
Of calling the greatest deliberative
body in the world; but 1t does mean
that they are getting foothold where
for years their rights and demands
were scoffed at, and that new order
cf things is at hand.
There came into being in 1861 a
senate oligarchy which was self per-
petuating down to March last The
interests Of the favored few Of the
great corporations were looked after
practically 10 the exclusion of those
OF the masses Of our people. We Of
this generation have habit Of refer
ring TO Nelson w. Aldr'ch as the rep
rCsentative and advocate Of the chosen
few. As q matter Of fact he was only
the successor OF a number Of distin-
guished statesmen, such as Morrill,,
Sherman and Blaine, who honestly
did not know what It was 20 expert

drich probably had as remarkable a
career as any man who ever entered

Calhoun was. nor yet so brilliant as

NATURAL SELECTION.

Surely it was a fitting romance that
eliminated in the marriage of young
Gould to a girl who is proclaimed as
a princess of the old Hawaiian royal
family. No doub; the young lady is
all that a blushing April bride should
be and it may be unkind to make
| light of ner lineage. But mention of
the Hawaiian royal family brings
forth visions of an early day south
sea island potentate sitting on a soap
/ box throne bedecked in tomato can
crown.
However, if the young brides an
cestors were cannibal kings who ate
unsuspecting missionaries and rival
/ laspirants for the throne she has moth
ing over her husband in this respect.
Old Jay Gould was himself consid-
erafIe ~ a cannibal and as such he
i still remembered His strong suit
i. said to have consisted in wrecking
the railroads with which he was con-
cerned, swallowing the other stock
holders whole and then emerging forth
as the sole survivor and owner He
was railroad pirate rather than an
empire builder and it seems natural
that his grandson should find an af-

But I never said a word
In regard to what heard.

ToDAY's BIRTHDAY SKETCH.

Charles K. Harris, the music pub
Usher and composer Of more popular
songs than perhaps any other writer
Of today is fOrty-six today, for it was
on May /, 1865 that he first saw the
light at Poughkeepsie y. Y. His
mother and father were not rich peo-
pie, so instead Of going to a private
school, young Harris was hustled off
20 the public schools of Poughkeep-
sic, where he made unusually high
marke in his lessons, but had the
average boys share Of love for
pranks.
Harris was always fond Of music
and as a boy did his share toward
making the neighborhood lively with
his 'quartette" which usually sang
either Harris compositions Of his
"a-rangements" Of other peoples mu-
sic.
When he started out to work Harris
settled ~ Saginaw, Michigan, which
is as proud Of him as is Poughkeep-
sic. He married in 1893, Cora Lehr-
berg, Of Owensboro, Ky Perhaps the
gratest song hit Of Harris's career
was After the Ball" of which it is
said over 100000 million copies
were sold. Since 1892. when that
song first came out he has written
over 100 songs, many of which have
lived and as many more failed Of sue
cess. Nothing he has ever composed,
however, has ever attained the popu-
larity Of After the Ball"
Mr.. Harris is the head Of his own
publishing company, which was es-
4 blished first in Milwaukee, when It
branched out with headquarters in
New York and many other cities.
Since 1903 Mr.. Harris has made his
home in New York, where he is a
member Of several clubs. He also be-
longs 70 several Milwaukee clubs.
