DON'T PULL OUT The
GRAY HAIRS
NO LONGER NECESSARY, SAYS A
WRITER.

Pull out one gray hair and a dozen
will take its place" is an old saying,
which is, to a great extent, true, if no
steps are taken to stop the cause.
When gray hairs appear it is a sign
that nature needs assistance. 1t is
natures call for help. Gray hairs,
dull lifeless hair, or hair that is fall
ing out is not necessarily a sign of
advancing age, for there are thous-
ands OF elderly people with perfect
heads of hair without a single streak
of gray.
When gray hairs come, or when the
hair seems to be lifeless or dead,
some good, reliable Misunderstanding
treatment should be resorted to at
once. Specialists say that one of the
hest preparations to use is the old
fashioned sage toa," which our grand
parents used. The best preparation
of this kind is Wyeth's Sage and
sulphur Hair Remedy, a preparation
OF domestic sage. and sulphur, scien-
fiflcally compounded with later dis
covered hair tones and stimulants,
the whole mixture being carefully
balanced and tested by experts.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur is clean
and wholesome and perfectly harm
less. 1t refreshes dry, parched hair,
removes dandruff and gradually re-
stores faded or gray hair to its ma
tural color.
This preparation is offered to the
public at fifty cents bottle and is
recommended and sold by

In the Departments.

Little was going on in the State
House departments Wednesday, Some
of the heads of departments came II
early in the forenoon to look over the
mail and attend to "a few matters
that could not we'll be deferred until
another day. 1t was only in the Wa
ter Storage Commission department
that work was going on during the
entire day and this was brought about
by somewhat peculiar situation Dis
trict Engineer Babb. who is in charge
of this work, is under commission
from the United States government
and as Patriots day is not recog
nized as a legal holiday by the United
States government Mr.. Babb could
not well refrain from keeping the
work under way in his office during
the entire day.
The elevator men and other men
employed under the direction of the
superintendent of buildings found
enough to occupy their time during
the greater part of the day in show
ing the many visitors about the State
House.

Says: | believe that every Disease
flesh is heir to can be traced to the
Stomach or Liver.
To successfully treat any disease
you must first get the Stomach and
Liver to doing their work.
If your food does not DIGEST and
you are constipated, you certainly are
not we'll.
The result of undieested food and
constipation is the filling of your en-
tire system with poisonous toxins and
germs.
Why suffer with indigestion, gas
sour stomach and dyspepsia, when it
can be cured?
Why suffer with constipation?
Why not be as we'll and as happy
as other smiling people you meet?
Have you tried Stomach Rite?
Stomach causes the Stomach
and Liver to act for themseIves-the
food to dieest-tnc bowels to move
in a natural manner.
Read what it is doing for people
every day.
A prominent druggist in the suburbs
of Boston wrote me the past week for
moro Stomach Rite, and | here quote
a part of-his letter:
"Stomach- Rite tablets are uiyino
great satisfaction; customers who
have used other medicine say that
yours are the finest thing they ever
tried. One doctor here is using them
in his practice"
Don't you think it would pay you to
try Stomach Rite?

make sufficient money off the people
Of Pendleton? It is not his job to
worry on that score. That is Or,
vtncent's duty and he is paid good
salary to do such fretting. He also
has able assistants in the legal pro-
fession who are paid money to see
that the electrical company is not inn
posed upon. The East Oregonian
does not know just how many PEN
dleton attorneys are retained by the
electric company. 1t might be
hard matter to find out Even the
city attorney it seems has been on the
corporations legal staff and he had
the good taste and manhood to make
the facts known to the council and TO
ask them TO act accordingly
There is no ground for the fear
that the electric company is not do
ing very well in Pendleton. Informa-
tion that is being obtained here
shows that Pendleton. even with the
reductions granted, will still be pay
ing much more for electricity than
co some sister towns of the north
west. Even with the reduced rates
and with the overhead wires placed
underground there will still be ample
profits to insure new yachts every
year for the multimillionaires who
own the electric trust. No haIdships
Will be worked upon those gentlemen.
But even were it true that the ell
ectric company is not making extra
large. profits from its Pendleton plant
it would not be proper for Mr. Mont
gomery or for any other councilman
to exploit that fact. The councilmen
represent the people-not the electric
trust.
This is no attempt to roast Mr..
Montgomery whom this paper counts
as good friend and as a fine coun-
Gilman in reference to most affairs.
1t will be granted he is entirely sim
cere in his present stand. But TO the
East Oregonian it is plain he is not
properly informed as to the basic du-
ties OF public servants.
As this paper understands the mat
ter it is the duty of a public servant
to represent the public, not a corpor-
alton that may be making money off
the public.

ENPLOIT OUR RESORTS.

\ Spokane paper regrets that more
attention is not paid to the develop
ment of the resorts of the inland en-
pire.
Our forests, lakes and mountains
abound in numbers of places rich in
fish or game that can be developed in
t. such resorts it says. The Can
adian Pacific railway shows what can
be done and how.
"All along the line in the Rockies it
has built up resorts by systematic
Improvement and advertising. 1t
runs special trains for tourists, who
ir summer flock thither in multi
tudes from all parts of the world. 1t
makes special rates for tourists and
specially low rates for round trips.
The Inland Empire has scenic at
fractions scarcely second to those of
the Canadian Rockies. But it is let
ting their economic values lie idle"
All of this is very true. In Oregon
the railroad companies devote much
money advertising the coast resorts
but they pay scant attention to noun
tain resorts. They should advertise
Wenaha springs. 1t is splendid lit
tie mountain resort and deserves far
more patronage than it gets.
1t would also be splendid thing
/ if the railroad would extend its Pilot
Rock line to the southwark and give
rail connections with the resorts in
the southern part of the county. With
railroad extended to that region
and with proper advertising many
thousands of inland empire people
would go there to spend their vaca-
tions.

or WITH srCH sTrFr.

Those opposed TO placing the over
head wires underground in the busi-
ness section are short on actual ar
guments but long on bluffs, insinu-
ations and attempts at satire. The
latest sally Is an idiotic effort TO
make fun of the ladies of the civic
club and Of others Interested in the
worthy move to improve the appear
ance of this city and to safeguard the
lives of local people.
But where is there anything silly
or ridiculous in the fact that the pub
lie spirited ladies of Pendleton desire
to see practical steps taken for the
betterment and identification of the
city? Where is there anything ridi-
culous in the fact those ladies have
gone in a proper manner before the
city councilmen-avowed representa-
tives Of the people-and requested
that they take action which every
body knows should have been taken
long ago? Where is the chivalry of
Pendleton that the good women of
the city must be made the victims of
Shiny and i'll timed humor simply be-
cause they work with patriotism
and devotion for the cause of a great
er and finer Pendleton
Where is there anything funny in
the fact that because of corporate
greed the lives of firemen are en-
dangered every time a blaze occurs
In the business section of Pendleton?
Where is the humor in the prospect
that one of these days Pendleton may
have TO care for the widow and the
orphans of some fireman who gives
up his life because cowardly or cor
poration-tied councilmen have re-
fused to do their duty by their peo-
pie?
Out with such rot. 1t wont work
any longer. The electric company
and klnGTed trusts nave DluIItu anu
bulldozed this city long enough. By
secret selection of public officials and
by judicious distribution of favors
those concerns have long had their
way and have escaped doing their
plain duty.
But the jig is up. If the East Ore
gonian is not mistaken Pendleton
now has a council in which the ma
jority are not under the thumb Of
the Pacific Power & Light company
CT Of the telephone trust. They have
ordered the corporations to come in
10 camp and show cause why they
should not place their wires under
ground in the business portion of the
city When the inquiry is finished,
If this paper is not mistaken, the over
head wires will be ordered down be-
cause there is no solid reason under
heaven why they should remain where
they area menace to life and an
eyesore TO the people.

SHOULD REPRESENT THE PUBLIC

Councilman Tom Montgomery is
quoted as saying that the East Ore
gonian has the popular side Of the
overhead wire controversy yet he feels
called to take the other side Of the
issue.
Why should Mr.. Montgomery take
the other side? Is he not, like this
paper. a servant Of the people? Was
he not chosen to office on the under
standing he would uphold the inter-
ests OF the public-just as Mr.. Strain
ana some other councilmen are now
soing?
why should Mr.. Montgomery worry
and fret lest the electric trust Will not
