THE DESERT.

I am the pure proud land that hath
hearkened to no mans WOO
ing; y
am the virgin land vowed sole to
the service of God;
The silence that broods on my hills is
my answer to human suing
And there is the peace on my plains
that marks where the Lord
hath trod.
and my sister, the Sea, we fret at
your insolent creeping;
She decks with a light foam wreath
the place of a strong mans
rest.
And the dry skull bleached to silver,
where the stated wolf is sleep
ing.
Is a trivial gaud scarce worthy to
lie on my proud white breast.
Love you your fat, green valleys, the
riches of mans long labor?
Love you the fOulness of cities, dark
with the ages grim?
Find you your gladness warm in the
smile and the grasp of your
neighbor?
Bid you there with your kin. the
plaything of men and of time
But when kisses have cooled on your
lips and your eyes have grown
weary of weeping,
When your pitiful loves stink down
+A
Come you and taste of the peace that
the guard of my hills is keep
ing,
Come and learn you the sweetness
of silence, the mother of Gods
own mirth.
He is throned on my crimson hills in
a purple meet for His passion;
The hot, bright flame of His patti
ence plays over the leper-white
plains,
The wonderful sun is His herald and
speaks Him in kingly fashion,
And the golden splendor of midnight
is the veil that His glory
deigns.
Leave you the joys of green valley to
faint hearts that wait on their
sating.
Here in the sweet fresh air the soul
is cleansed from its fears
Can you bargain with Age the De-
spoiler-will Time not grow
weary ow waiting?
But here in the Desert is Cod, the
End and the Crown of the
years.

GET INTO THE GAME.

J. E. Keefe, paid secretary of the
Commercial club, is anxious to have
something doing towards promoting
the upbuilding and advancement Of
Pendleton. In an enthusiastic talk
at the club meeting last evening he
mentioned a number of ways through
which work may be done along this
line. A greater power supply is need
60 so as TO foster manufacturing.
saw mill is needed, irrigation enter
prises are needed in the immediate
vicinity of Pendleton. the O.-W, r. q
y. freight division is wanted, apart
ment house accommodation are need
ed here so that people who wish to
come here may find quarters in which
tC live; there is need of a greater
spirit Of cooperation on the part of
the people.
That these things are true we all
know very we'll This is not the first
time such subjects have been men,
toned in Pendleton. The average To-
cal citizen believes in the possibilities
open to the city If an outsider asks
a local man what Pendleton has for
the future he will be told that this
place is the commercial center of
voritable empire that is largely un-
developed as yet He will be told
that We have the finest climate in
the world; that Pendleton's geograph-
zeal position is hard to beat and that
if all the things that could happen
would actually happen Pendleton
would become a whizzer of a city in
deed.
But the trouble in Pendleton IS
there is too much faith without
work" and faith that is not supple
mented by earnest and consistent ef-

AN AFFIRMATIVE ARGUMENT

Some people ask why it is pro-
posed 10 pay the city officials under
the commission plan of government
when the officials are now working
for nothing. 1t looks like peculiar
economy to them.
But would a merchant want to RELY
upon volunteer clerks to sell his
goods; would a farmer rely upon vol
urteer farm hands to seed and thresh
his crop; would a man who proposed
t. erect a business building or a fine
residence want to rely upon an un-
paid architect; would a bank choose
for cashier a man who was willing to
serve without pay?
1t does not follow that the council
system is economical merely because
the council and mayor work for moth
ing. Paid men by investigating mat
ters more thoroughly and negotiating
more closely might secure costly i'm
provements at much lower figures
than they are secured. If so they
would save the city more than the am
cunt Of their salaries.
a paid commission with some back
bone and bristle might haze the cleo
trio trust little and get twice as
much street lighting as we now get
and for the same price. In other
towns in Oregon wonderful results
have been accomplished along this
line by proper show of nerve and
determination.
The fact that the officials will be
paid if the commission form of gov
ernment is adopted in Pendleton is
no argument against the plan. It is
one of the best arguments in favor
OF the move.

State Tax Com. Selects Keno.
sha Man to Aid in Reassess-
mentto Cityof GAINESVILLE
COMPLIMENT TO KENOSHA MAN

Joseph E. Dalton Of Silver Lake,
supervisor of assessments Of Kenosha
county, has been named by the Wis
consin State Tax Commission as one
of the three men to have charge of
the re- assessment of the city of james
vile. The naming of Mr.. Dalton is
q high compliment to his work as an
official For some time the commission
has kept close tab on the work done in
Kenosha and in its last annual report
the commission declared that the
county of Kenosha was one of the three
best assessed counties in the state.
The problem at GAINESVILLE is a big
one. The assessors there made their
report month ago ard 1t was claim
ed by the state commission that the
assessment was far lower than it should
be and steps were at once taken to
have the matter considered by the
state commission. After examining the
figures the commission decided that the
only way to equalize the assessments in
the city would be to have the work
done by the assessors reviewed by a
board made up Of men selected from
other cities in the state. Mr.. Dalton
was named as chairman of the new
board and he will have as his. aids H.

HARD ON CONDUCTORS
Railway Co. Puts on Spoilers
to End Practice of Knock
ing Down Fares
EMPLOYEES GROWING WEALT THY

Discharges Of conductors on divi-
sions of the Northwestern and st. Paul
roads are being ordered by the general
managers following reports of spoilers
placed on passenger trains and who
have been at work for several weeks.
It is claimed that these spoilers have
filed reports showing that the COM
panies have been robbed of thousands
of dollars and that certain conductors
have been knocking down. as high
as $4,000 per month.
Orders were issued from the general
offices of the ST. Paul road at Chicago,
ordering the dismassal of fifty conduc-
tors of the divisions of the road in
Iowa, Minnesota and the Dakotas. It
is claimed that the biggest steal ever
found on a western railroad was I'M
covered by spoilers. "Short' fares
are asserted to have been the system
worked by the conductors. Suspicion
was directed toward some of the con-
ductors for the reason that cash fares
on some runs nearly ceased altogether.
Spoilers were put to work and for
several weeks have been checking up
all conductors who were under
suspicion.
The railroad companies have install
ed new system in order to check
up conductors. Instead of placing
collectors on a train when it starts
out, the spoilers board the train at
so11e point along the division and they
go through the train counting the
number of passengers and checking
cash fares if any are paid. At the
end of the run the conductor makes
his report and the spotter later turns
in his report and the two are compared
and if any discrepancy is found in the
conductors report he is called on the
carpet. Should such conductor have
been suspected of knocking do n"
his dismissal follows.

GIVEN LONG SENTENCE
Frank DeFazio Pleads Guilty
to Attempting to As
sault Little Girl
HAS 4 LARGE FAMILY IN ITALY

Frank DeFazio, the Italian arrested
two weeks ago on charges of attempting
to make criminal assault on an eight
year old girl and who was held for
trial In the circuit court under bonds
of a thousand dollars few days ago,
went before Judge Randall in the mu.
nicial court on Thursday afternoon and
asked to be permitted to plead to the
information against him. He admitted
his guilt and Judge Randall sentenced
him to five years at hard labor in the
state prison at Waupun.
The case of DeFazio is an unusual
one. The Italian is Al years of age
and ne has resio ed in Kenosha for more
than seven years and during that time
he has borne an excellent reputation.
He has wife and seven children liv-
ing in Italy and it is declared that
every week since he has been in Ke-
nosha up to the time of his arrest he
had sent to his wife the larger por-
ton of his earnings. When brought
into court he declared that he was
guilty of the charges against him and
insisted that he had been drinking
heavily on the day that the assault on
the little girl took place. The grief
of the italian was evident and he de.
clared to the court that he cared moth.
ing for himself but that he did not
know what would become of his wife
and children.
The familysin Italy is in ignorance
Of the plight Of the man and he de-
clared that he preferred to have his
wife and children believe that he had
been killed. DeFazio was taken to
Waupun today to begin his long
sentence.
