any time in support of any cause that
looks to the advancement of this lit
tie city. Mayor Murphy, w. L.
Thompson, r. Alexander, Leon Cohen,
Win Moore and about 25 or 80 other
good men were also in the brigade
that worked night and day for many
weeks, hoping thereby to place Pen
dleton upon the path to growth and
prosperity. 1t was long hard up
hin fight waged against the sneers
and scoffs of pessimists and against
the subtle Instructions of interests
that opposed the move for selfish
reasons.
But thanks to the determined
work OF the committeeman and to the
loyal and progressive spirit of the peo-
pie of this city the fight-as far as
Pendleton was concerned-was won,
Pendleton raised the money that was
asked for by the traction company
and the fact that the lines have not
been built is due to no fault of our
people,
As far as the promoter, Mr. Fitz-
gerald. is concerned it is quite well
known that the committee did not re-
lv upon mere assurances from him.
The basis of the traction movement
was the fact that wealthy and influ-
entail Walla Walla men had offered
Ito build the traction system if given
proper support. Those people were
in earnest and agreed to sign bond
to develop their electric power and
build their lines before collecting any
} local money. They expended severa
thousand dollars in their preliminary
! work
As to why the traction system wa:
, not built this paper will not under
take to say. The East Oregonian wa
concerned with the Pendleton end o
the bargain and is still proud of tn

1T WAS A GOOD JOB.

Governor West is being criticised
fer activity in connection with certain
legislative measures. Most of the
roar comes directly or indirectly from
the fact that the governor made the
legislature come to time and pass the
bill to place the state printer upon
flat salary.
But the end in view justified and
in fact demanded the very course
that the governor pursued. For years
the state printers office has been a
graft that has "smelled to heaven"
Through the fee system that has been
in effect the people of this state have
been deliberately robbed of hundreds
of thousands of dollars. At times the
state printer has made more money
out of his office than does the presi'
dent of the United States from his
high position. For years it has beer
recognized that the printer should b'
placed upon a flat salary or else th'
work let by contract. But the none!
the printer has made has helped per
petuate the graft.
1t took Governor West. with hi
characteristic energy and nerve, L
force through this reform which poll
iticians have been promising sine
time immortal. He did a good job an
the people of the state will uphol
him in his course even though som
legislators did not like the whip h
used.

GIVING.

Give, give, cried Love. Seek not for
self to gain,
But with both hands o'erflowing, of
thy best
Give unto those that ask thee, nor
refrain
From those who, needless still yet
long for rest;
For to give rightly is Loves first be-
hest.
Give as the sun gives day in place
of night.
AS the glad lark its song of pure
delight;
Give as the landscape all its beauty
shows,
AS yields its tender scent the gener-
Gus rose.
Give as the rain floods all the thirst
ing earth,
As filings the breeze its ripples of soft
mirth;
AS the wide tree spreads shade in
noontide glare,
The best thou knowest give, that all
may share.
And as these lack not, neither shalt
thou lack;
For all thy giving shall increase thy
store;
Because, unsought, thy sowing shall
give back
An hundredfold of good-till more
and more
Thy garners of true joy brimmint
DER. Edith Carter.

FOR A NEW THEATER.

Pendleton, Ore, March 1, 1911.
Editor East Oregon:
wish to call your earnest atten-
ton to the urgent need of new the
ater building in Pendleton. However,
II Is almost unnecessary to mention
this fact as the inadequacy Of the
old house is we'll known. The presen-
tation of first class scenic productions
on the present local stage is an us-
ter impossibility, that Is the sole rea-
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1911-03-01

If you want to have some sport
hunt up a chronic pessimist, tell him
about the million dollars worth OF
work to be done here this year and
hear him grunt.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1911-03-01

First upon the program comes the
new high school. 1t is needed and
there should not be a dissenting vote
against the bond issue. Perhaps
there wont be.

A PRINCES CURIOSITY.

AS is well known, the present king
of England agrees heartily with Mr..
Roosevelt on the race suicide ques-
ton, and, as an example to the Eng
lish people, has a large family. 1t Is
said that during the illness Of the
late King Edward some years ago one
of>the younger sons Of the then Prince
of Wales was told that he might see
his grandfather II he would promise
to be very still and quiet. The prom
Use was given and he was admitted TO
the bedside of the king. After short
stay he approached closer and said:
grandfather, have I been very good
and quiet?"
yes" replied the king.
well then, grandfather, could l
please see the baby?"-Human Life

Nor is this all the work that VIII
be done by any means. The list does
not include the work upon the Round
I'D grounds. 1t does not include any
street work at all and much street
work there assuredly will be. With
IN. a short time the people will be
asked to vote upon a charter change
that will be drafted with view TO
making more street improvement pos
sible. When that amendment is ad-
opted as it doubtless will be, Pen
dleton will be in position to give the
people all the street improving they
desire. Do they need any?
The million dollar list includes nc
private building operations that may
be carried on during the summer. MOI
does it include any railroad work thai
will be done in this section, such a:
the Coyote-Echo cutoff which In II
self will cost almost a million dollars
There will be nothing to it. If al
goes well Pendleton IS going TO nav
the busiest year it has ever expert
enced. With million dollars WORT
of work on hand local people may wei
expect a season of activity and pros
perity.
Nor will the good times end whe
the work is done. The branch asy
lum will be a continuous asset to IN
city. So will the new water system
the new high school and other bel
terments. Because of those better
ments more people will come here
reside and those who are already hei
will become more contented VIII
their lot. We viii put an end
knocking and pessimism and orir
on an era of optimism and advance
ment.

Matlock would regain the tract may
cease their worry.
