NEW THOl'GIIT IX POLITICS. As the spirit of the New Thought teaching is lnvad ng the orthodox churches at an alarming rate today, asserting the sovereignty and king ship of the individual, declaring the independence of the soul from, fear and superstitution, recognizing the divinity within each human being and teaching that humanity is one and a part of God. so Is the same spirit Invading the ranks of political par ties, declaring the independence of the individual, asserting the sover e gnty of citizenship and. teaching men to think for themselves with out the die'ation or Intervention of a boss. , Heretofore when a man desired a nomination for office, no matter how enlightened and excellent he may have been, It was absolutely neces sary for him to go to the ward heeler of his party, Mickey O'Shaughnessy or Moses Budweiser, to get permis sion to run. This ward heeler has always been a toil taker from honest men and rogues alike, who desired office. He has held the power In his hands, and has levied tribute on every man who passed under his notice. As for himself, he cared nothing for party principles. He was a bun dle of egotism, ignorance, prejudice and gall and was employed by h's party to win no matter how. .So he was the gatekeeper by which every ambitious man must pass, before realizing his ambition. No matter how enlightened and su perior an office seeker may have been, It was necessary for him to get down on hi knees before this miserable party boss, this wretched, stupid. Ignorant tyrant whose con sent was necessary to entrance Into the list of candidates. In this way party politics have been corrupted, lowered, poisoned with the virus of graft, boodle, bribe ry and hatred. Where men should have been tunning for office on an enlightened, manly platform, they have entrusted their fate to the mis erable ward heeler. But independence has come. The direct primary law allows every man to stand up In his manhood and might, free and untrammeled, a very tower of strength among his fellows. Merit and fitness will count largely hereafter and bosslsm will soon have passed Into deserved oblivion. Everywhere voters are asserting their independence. They are do ing their own choosing, they are thinking for themselves, acting with out dictation, deciding upon candi dates and polic es without the Inter ference of some miserable boss far below them In Intelligence and character. mitlGATIOVS STORY.

It Is estimated that 5.000,090 acres will have been added to the Irrigated area of the United States by the mid dle of the year 1908, bringing the to tal area up to 16,000,000 acres, with products worth at the same prices received this year, over $250,000,000. By persistent education and agi tation the department has extended the alfalfa crop eastward to the cen ter of Arkansas, and north Into southern Wisconsin and experimental patches here and there In Michigan, Indiana and Kentucky. . The arid area of the west yet un lrrlgated Is equal to more than the entire Irrigated area at the present time and is slowly being reduced by the government and by private en terprise. This arid belt is the only remaining territory In the United States which has anything of value In the way of cheap land for homes, to offer to the overcrowded cities and rural communities of the east. This Irrigated section mirt pre pare to make room for the overflow population which must soon leave the congested centers. Here In the weBt will be the fu ture rallying place for the homeless, the ultimate goal of the land-hungry family. The East Oregonlan has contend ed all along that If one legitimate banking institution of Oregon has been saved by the holidays which have been in force, that is sufficient Justification for the holidays. And it now contends that If one legitimate commercial Inst'tutlon of the state may be saved from bankruptcy by a special session of the legislature, that Is sufficient Justification for the session.

She was said to have an Ideal form by a New York sculptor and she receiv ed offers to pose. I think it Is all a matter of good health," she said smilingly. "I've had splendid health ever since I re member. How do I preserve It? Oh, that's simple. I exercise a great deal In the open air and always take the best care of myself. "I really eat only one hearty meal a day. My breakfast is usually a roll .some fruit and coffee, and my lunch is always light. Every morn ing when I get up I take deep brerthing exercises and I'm always careful to have plenty of fresh air In the room. 'I am very fond of row ing and of riding." BAPTIZE!) 117 YEARS AGO. Aqulda, oldest and one of the last of the ancient mission Indians, has Just died at San Juan Capistrano, near the ruins of the old mission, where, according to the records, she was baptized 117 years ago In 1790, 14 years after the building of the mission and was 125 years old, says a Los Angeles item. Her death oc curred yesterday and was due simp ly to old age. She was remarkably active almost to the end, having been able to get about until a few weeks ago. So far as Is known, no descend ants are left. Despite her years, the old sijuaw's memory was unusually clear. Her early years were spent In the palmy times and In the classic Bhadows of the beautiful old mission, and she of ten recalled the building of the old chapel ' connected with it, that was ruined by the earthquake which de stroyed most of the buildings. She was middle-aged at the time of the secularization and practical obliter ation of the missions, and passed alj of her years In the old town of San Juan Capistrano, A LITTLE SUN, A LITTLE RAIN. A little sun, a little rain, A soft wind blowing from the west And woods and fields are sweet again, And warmth within the mountain's breast. So simple Is the earth we tread, So, quick with love and life her frame; Ten thousand years have dawned and fled, And still her magic Is the same. A little love, a little trust, A joft Impulse, a sudden dream And life as dry as desert dust Is iresher than a mountain stream. Stopford A. Brooke In The Public. AT FILIPINO PRICES. It 13 said that Blederwolf, the evangelist got about $900 for his work at Jewell, Kansas. Over 400 conversions are reported. This av eraged up to about the same price we paid for the Filipinos.
