The outfit with which F. M. Chris.
man proposed to reYolutionize the
freighting business in Eastern Oregon
bids fair to result in disappointment.
as thus far it has been an unwieldy
monster. He left here Wednesday
morning with his traction engine and
wagon train, and this morning had
only reached Three-Mile, and was
having a difficult job of getting up the
hill, the engine being able to draw
only one wagon. At this rate of loco
motis it will take about $50 days to
reach his destination at Silver Lake.

was found. no one being in the room
at the time. An alarm was turned in
Immediately, and within five minutes
from the sounding of the alarm, the
Colum pia Hose Co. had stream of
water pouring into the rear OF the
building.
The fire probably started from the
heating pot used by the timer for his
irons. The entire interior of the
workroom was charred, and few tools
were damaged, but otherwise the loss
will be light.
1t was fortunate indeed that the fire
was checked so soon, for had it gained
headway it would bave caused much
damage, being in one of the principal
business blocks.

A WOMEN'S council in Omaha a
week or two ago discussed the effect
of short skirts on the morals Of young
men. One of the ladies suggested that
the way to make them inert as de-
moralizers was to wear them on any
and all occasions so that becoming ac-
customed to the sight the sterner sex
would not ''shy" when well turned
ankles were displayed. She said that
in time the boys would be affected no
more than the South Sea islanders
where skirts were discarded alto
gether. This is little too strong.
Does the esteemed lady wish to have
her morality compared to the savages
of these same islanders?

COMPLIMENTARY notices Of Bro

COMPLIMENTARY notices of Bro.
Dare, of the Elk River Stdr-Neaus are
not confined to the press Of the Sixth
district. Here is a graceful tribute
from the Benson Times: Among the
numerous men mentioned for speaker
there are none more capable and de-
serving than A. N. Dare, of Elk River.
He was one of the leading and reliable
men of the last session, had a host Of
friends and was always to be found vot-
ing on the right side. By rights he
should be in the senate now, but was
euchered out of it by the cupidity of d
larger county and few mon would have
acted as magnanimously as he did in
the matter. So great was the desire
to have him run again for his present
position, that even his opponents
urged it, and it would be no more than
justice that he be chosen to preside
over the body.
