The sad accident that befel little
Ollie Lewis last Tuesday has open
ed our eyes to the dangerous situa-
ton of the school house, situated
as it is nearly on the edge of the
bluff over which she fell. 1t is n,
so long since one ofthe school child
rem fell over this bluff but for un-
ately was not hurt. Yet others
may fall and be seriously injured
or crippled for life or perhaps
killed. There is fence around
the school house grounds and this
is a slight protection out it is very
slight. If the city council would
stretch tight wire fence across the
head os B street running east ard
Sth street running north, both of
which end abruptly on the edge of
these bluffs, it might save life or
injury to some one in the future.
We suggest that they look into it
and do all they can to insure the
greater safety of the school child
rem, many of whom have been in
the habit of playing dangerously
near the precipice Children will
forget and sometime in the earnest
ness of their play they approach
nearer danger than they otherwise
would.

another large warehouse between the

This will add considerable space to
their storage room and make it much
more convenient for shipping and re-
ceiving. They have erected Il tower
just beyond the driveway OH the south
side of their warehouse in the upper
part of town for the support of the bal
last carriage of the tramway. This
will add to the safety of the plant
at this point for as it was the ballast
carriage overhung the driveway and
was a source of uneasiness to the teams
as they drove under it though it might
never have fallen. As it is now the
company has made it perfectly safe.

FRIDAY. JUNE 26, 1903.

The recent disaster at Heppner
has filled all minds with a dread
apprehension of what might occur
to any town situated like that~in a
canyon or at the mouth of a CANYON.
1t is only little more than three
years when our town was swept by
a food not quite so disastrous of
course as that of Heppner yet
enough to fill our homes with sor-
row and cause great loss to many
of our people. Jhe question nat
urally arises can any thing be done
to avert similar calamity or at
least the power of such volume Of
water as to render it practically
harmless. After the flood of three
years ago the railroad raised its
roadbed for a foot or more and rip
raped the sides thoroughly while
the town built a small dixie so as to
turn the water back again into the
main channel should such rough
water prevail again. But these
would be but little protection again
st such wall of water as descended
upon Heppner. They would be
swept away as easily as floating
log and the waters rush down to
destroy our business houses and
homes. 1t seems to us that in
some way the town ought to take
other measures to prevent such a

might be bonded and the money
used towards erecting Il strong and
high breaSwater between the creek
and the town at the upper end if
no where else. The creek bottom
at the lower end of town is deeper
and wider than at the upper end
and there would be little danger
from it But the upper end should
be thoroughly protected.

Weather Crops

IF ever there was weather that would
delight the farmers the Potlatch has
been most favored all the sLring and
through the month of June. JusC
when we needed dry weather to get in
the crops we had it and after they were
all in there came warm rains and warm
sun shines to start them growing
though it has never been to warm too
bake the ground or scorch the crops.
We have never seen happier looking
set Of men than our farmers as they
came into town and everything points
to one of the best years we have ever
had.
There are grain companies already
in the field offering to contract new
wheat at Zoe II bushel but so far we
learned Of but few farmers who have
contracted at that price, the most
believing the price will be higher.
