a MANS BARGAIN.

If 1 cry out for fellowship.
A comrades voice comrades grip,
A hand to hold me when l slip.
An ear to heed my groan;
Renew that hours dark ecstacy.
When all Thy waves went over me,
And Thou and I, with none to see,
Were joined in fight alone.
If I demand a sheltered space
Set for me in the battle-place
Where I at times could turn my face
A screened and welcome guest;
Decree my soul should henceforth
cease
From its wild hankering after peace
And rest in that which gives release
From the desire of rest.
If I for final goal should ask,
Some meaning for the long days task
Some ripened field that may yet basi
Secure from hurricane:
Point to Thy locus-eaten sheaves,
The burnt-out stars, the still-borr
leaves,
And by the toll no hope retrieves,
Nerve me to toll again!

MORE EXPLOITATION.

The early flys the one to swat
1t comes before the weathers hot
And sits around and files its legs
And lays at least ten million eggs
And every egg will bring a fly
To drive us crazy by and by.
Yes, every fly that skips our swatters
VIII have ten million sons and daugh-
ters
And countless first and second cousins
And aunts and uncles, scores of doz.
ems,
And fifty-seven billion nieces.
So, knock the blamed thing all to
pieces.
And every niece and every aunt.
Unless we swat them so they can't,
VIII lay enough dodgasted eggs
To fill up ten five gallon kegs:
And al! these eggs. ere summer hies
Will bring forth twenty million fliesl
And thus it goes an endless chain,
So all our swatting is in vain
Unless we do that swatting soon
Say sometime in the month of June
So men and brothers, let us rise,
Gird up our loins and swat the flies

"wHITE PLUMBER'' INNOVATION

(Outlook.)
Some years ago there was plumb
er in a western city where soft coaI
predominated Rivals had cut into
his business until he bethought him
self of the efficiency experts and
sought advice as to how he could in
crease his business. The expert said:
"If you will follow my advice I will
guarantee to double your business
Paint your shop white without and
within Dress your employees in
white, with white shoes: give them
white canvas bags in which to carry
their tools; let them wear white caps
AMI white shoes when at work and
advise yourself as The White Plumb
er.' This advice was followed. The
man was at considerable outlay for
white overalls, jumpers, etc, but his
business at once began to grow like
magic. The housewife who reluctant
ly admitted the ordinary mechanic
with greasy overalls and grimy tool
bag had no apprehensions for her
floors and rugs when one of the
white plumbers arrived. Incidentally
the men braced up. took more pride
in their work and in keeping them
selves bodily clean
We are reminded of this by the pub
lication in the Engineering Magazine
of the application of the same idea in

If Senator Lane is going to insist
upon the correction of faults in the
m inistration
Senator Lane of Indian af-
And Indian Affairs. fairs he will
find fertile
field for activity and he can accom-
plish much good. At the same time
his work thus far is a disappointment,
in a sense.
For instanc it has been reported
several times in news stories from
Washington that Senator Lane has
criticised appropriations on the
ground that about 80 per cent of the
money went for administrative pur-
poses and little or none reached the
Indians That does not necessarily
show any weakness in the bureau. 1t
is not the intention to give money to
the Indians any longer The old ra-
ton days are over. The less money
the government now gives to the In
dians the better does the government
discharge its duty-as all will agree
who are in touch with the Indian
problem The idea of the Indian SER
vice is to see that in as far as possible
that the redman becomes self sup
porting and efficient and that his chill
dren get an education But il is not
the purpose to support the Indian.
That would pauperize him.
II appropriations for the Indian
service may be criticised because the
money does not go to the Indians then
people could on the same grounds
criticise the Pendleton school board
because the $4,000 or $4,000 ex-
public schools all goes for salaries
and expenses, not cent being given
to the pupils. The comparison Is a
good one for the fact a large portion
OF the Indian appropriation goes for
educational purposes. Exclusive of
the Five Civilized Tribes in 1910 there
were 10000 Indian school children. At
that time the total value Of the
school property amounted to S12,Sse,-
710. OF that sum it was estimated
that the school sites were worth s3,-
502,361 and the remainder Of the
property consisted in buildings and
improvements, furniture, livestock,
farming tools, etc. That year it cost
a total Of s4,398,135 to meet the
school expenses, outside the Five
Civilized Tribes Naturally but little
IL any Of that money went to Indians.
1t went for paying salaries and other
school expenses. It was not intend
ed for distribution among the In
dians. The same is doubtless true
with reference to money for other
branches Of the Indian service.
However, the East Oregonian is not
criticising Senator Lane for looking
closely into where the Indian service
money goes to. His course Is com
mendable. The only regret is that he
seems to be upon a cold trail. But
even If such is the case it need not
deter the senator from further ef-
forts as a member Of the Indian af-
fairs committee. There are other
matters besides appropriations that
need looking into There is one live
problem right here in Senator lanes
own state Why is II that though
the Umatilla river flows directly
through the Umatilla reservation and
though water from that river is
needed upon the Indian lands there
is no irrigation upon the reservation I?
Why is it that as guardian for the
Indians the government has never
protected their plain interests in this

HOW HE WAS CONVERTED.

During a recent suffragette parade
in New York, one pretty young woman
was assigned to carry a very heavy
banner. She grew exceedingly tired
before the parade had gone very far
and seeing her fiance in the crowd on
the pavement, besought him to come
and carry the banner for her The
young man protested.
Il can't carry banner in a suf-
frage parade" he said
"Oh, yes, you can," replied the
girl; that is. IL you really love me"
This put another light on the sub
ject. and the young man took up the
banner and began the march. He
didn't know what the crowd was
laughing about until 1t occurred to
him to look at the banner when. to
his horror, he saw that 1t read:
