PECULIARITIES.

The primary election developed
some peculiar results and they are
hard to understand. Republicans vot-
ed strongly for Roosevelt yet in the
senatorial election they turned down
the most conspicuous progressive can
didate and nominated the former Taft
chairman. Judge Lowell, the most
deserving man in the race, ran third
throughout the state.
In Portland the voters covered
themselves with glory or something
else by renominating Lafferty. From
that one might we'll conclude they
are a bad lot down there and don't
care for decency. Yet they showed
good Judgment with reference to the
district attorneys office by nomi-
mating Evans over Fouts and Gamer
on.
In this county the voters showed a
decided independence of the organi-
zation when it came to presidential
votes yet they swallowed Hinkle and
Mann, for legislative nominations.

FROM THE PEOPLE
WELCOME THE VISITORS.
Appeal Made For Attending to Big
Sunday School Gathering.


Sunday School Gathering.
Editor East Oregonian:
VIII you please grant me space to
appeal to the civic pride of the people
of Pendleton and ask welcome and
support of the State Sunday School
Convention which assemblies in this
city on Thursday morning of this
week. 1t Is expected there will be
gathered from 800 to 500 delegates
from all portions of Eastern Oregon,
and from Portland, with distinguished
speakers from the east. The men and
women who will be here are leaders
In the moral and religious activities
or the state, and the impression they
receive here will count large in the
good or bad reputation of our city.
For some reason little interest Is
manifested If it were a roundup or
a commercial gathering, the men of
the city would have long since been
ready and hearty welcome and high
honors would be showered on our Wis
itors. Let me ask the men and wo-
men of Pendeton to open their homes
to the delegates, meet them at the
trains, and attend the convention
sessions. Upon the program are peo-
pc of nationwide fame.
Respectfully,
MRS. A. S. LOWELL.

AN EPTTAPH AID.

There is Philadelphia man who is
an authority on epitaphs, serious and
otherwise-"otherwis for, as every
one knows, many are unconsciously
funny. But" says the Philadelphian,
at is not often that one encounters
an epitaph that is meant to carry a
business advertisement Such a one,
however, evists in an Ohio cemetery.
1t was the happy idea Of the widow
OF a man named Mcconnell partner
in an inductrial concern known as
Mcconnell G. McCumber.
1T appears that, not long after the
decease of her husband, Mrs. McCon-
nell married Mr.. McCumber, her late
husbands business associate.
THE epitaph is as follows: Sacred
to the memory of Michael Mcconnell,
for twenty years the seniar partner
of the firm of Mcconnell. e. McCum-
Der, now McCumber &c Company" "

SHOW THEM \ WELCOME.

People disagree in politics and
Pendleton has its full share of such
disagreement. But there is one SUBJ
ject upon which the people of this
city are pretty well together and they
should be together. One and all we
are imbued with the idea that when
visitors come to this city-especially
in large numbers for conventions
they should be adequately cared for
and entertained.
These remarks are prompted by an
appeal made today in behalf of the
Sunday school workers who are to
be here Thursday for their annual
state convention. 1t will be a big
gathering. There will be some 400 or
500 people present, it is estimated,
and there will be speakers from all
over the nation. But the coming
meeting has attracted little attention.
1t is doubtful If the majority of To-
cal people know it is to be held and
seemingly preparations for the ac-
comm'odation and entertainment of
the visitors have been neglected.
Whose fault this has been the East
Oregonian does not know and wont
anyway. The essential thing is that
the convention has been overlooked
up for our shortcomings if we but get
busy
eastern oregon. 1t has the reputation
of being the best small city in the
because we have great railroad facil-
tiles, good hotel and restaurant ac-
commodations and because the town
usually makes a fuss" over those
who come here for convention pur-
poses IT is good reputation to
have.
The time for the Sunday school
convention is almost at hand and it is
too bad attention was not called to
the matter sooner. But good live
committee from the Commercial club
could do wonders in few days. The
Commercial club is in the finest shape
it has ever been and II the organi-
zation takes the matter up the WIS.,
itors can be given such welcome as
will warm their hearts towards Pen
deton and send them homeward with
praise for our people-good and bad
It should be done.

The nomination of Ben W. Olcott
as secretary of state was a fine trib-
ute to that capable official and it was
also an endorsement of Governor
West who appointed Olcott to office.
1t is very evident the people like the
manner in which the state admins

SAN FRANCISCO, August 1.-One
Of the heroic tales of the sea came
here by telegraph tonight in the &C
count of the desperate fight put up
against overwhelming odds by the
officers and men o. the oil steamer
Fakt, which caught fire from her
engine room, and was saved by being
rammed ashore twenty-five miles
south of Point Arena.
The fire was first discovered by a
stoker, who passed the alarm to the
engine rooms In a few minutes the
whole crew was engaged in trying to
smother the flames. This proved
hopeless for a time as the decks OF
the steamer were dripping with oil
and the streams of water from the
fire hose but drove the flames into
new places.
In the midst Of the fight with the
fire the wireless of the ship broke
down and her captain was unable to
direct the efforts of the ships he had
summoned to his assistance earlier
in the struggle.
While all of the crew were more or
less burned and scorched by the
flames, only three were seriously
hurt. The total damage done by the
flames, which were finally subdued,
will probably amount to but six
thousand dollars. u~

OLD LAWS To-
SUIT NEW CASES

England hardly needs to pass new
laws when it is possible to dig up
an old one to fit almost any contin-
gency. Something of sensation
was made by the recent conviction
of Tom Mann for .sedition and his
punishment under the century-old
solete. Even more curious was the
solete. Even more curiou was the
recent case of Frederick Mutton,
chairman of the Northampton united
temperance committee, who has been
undergoing fourteen days imprison-
ment for accusing the magistrate of
his town of partially toward the
drink traffic A publican had been
arrested for street meeting, and the
magistrates had let him off on the
ground that if convicted he might
justify the protest which Mr.. Mutton
signed and gave to newspaper. But
the magitrates, in revenge, dug up
an ancient statute which not only
covered speaking evilly of magis-
trates but applies to such lawless per-
SONS as "sleep of days and go abroad
of nights" phrase which naturally
excited merriment when read in
court. 1t is not impossible that the
case may be brought before ParIia-
ment, especially as English courts
have pronounced against indiscrimr
mate committal for contempt of
court In a somewhat similar case
Lord Morris ruled: "COmmittals for
contempt of court by .scandalizing
tho Court itcaIf have heeOme OhSO-
lete in this country. The courts are
satisfied to leave to public opinion
attacks or comments derogatory or
5scandatous to them. "-Evening Port,

that he had secured the site of our
