paying for the work, and the work
being done in such manner that it can
be approved by the council and Off
cially accepted as a graded street.
When the grading has been accepted
by the council, the street becomes d
public charge, the city keeps it in re-
pair under the direct oversight of the
street committee and the street COM
missioner and all expenses for re-
pairs are paid out of the street fund
one Of the regular tax funds of the
city. No sidewalks are put down by
authority Of the city until the stree!
has been officially accepted as graded
but after the sidewalks are built. the
city does not keep them in repair. but
only requires the street department
to keep an oversight over them, and
make the property owners keep up
the repairs, and no part of the street
fund is expended in the repair or re-
newal of sidewalks Why should this
distinction be made? The sidewalks
are a part of the street, and the city
should assume the repair of them 1t
would, of course, cost the city more
money, the tax levied for street pur-
poses would have to include more
mills; but there would not be a divi-
ded responsibility; the roadbed and
fOOtway would be under the same
management, and the duty of mainte-
nance would fall on the same depart
ment. This question of sidewalk re-
pair is one of the most vexatious that
the city has to deal with, and a large
and growing number Of taxpayers are
demanding that the city assume the
care of repairs to the sidewalks. The
greatest obstacle to the assumption
Of sidewalk repairs by the city is the

levy would be strictly for a public
purpose. The private property own
er is no more the owner Of the side
walk i'll front of his property than he
is the owner of the street All the
public have the right to use the walk,
and have the right to insist that il
be kept in as safe and passable con-
dition as the street is kept in. The
only way of doing this is for the city
to 90 it,

MOUNTAIN SUMNER CAMPS.

Some of the camps at which Wal
la. Wallans are spending their out
ings have almost reached the preten-
sions of watering places AT one
camp there were streets, grocery
stores. butcher shops, and other con-
veniences, including regular mail
service. Some campers have leased
the grounds they occupy, and have
fenced it. The premises are careful
" kept clean and saw dust put
down. The rest-hunters sleep on
fowery beds Of ease, eat Of the finest
yiands. breathe the pure ozone, and
recuperate wonderfully. While these
camps offer many inducements to
whole families, the vagabOnding vic
tins of single blessedness still con
tinue hunting variety Of scene from
year to year, careless of comfort and
eager for new experiences. 1t is
well there is health everywhere and
room in the mountains for all.

London. Aug. 24-The case of

charge of falsifying the London AMI
Globe company's accounts, was call
ed for t~idl today in the Guildhall
Police court. The court house was
crowded among the audience being

From all appearances the case will
be the most notable Of its kind since

of Jabez Balfour for the Liberator

CITY SHOULD REPAIR Sidewalk

The fact that the wooden sidewalks
Of Walla WaIla are in such bad condi-
ton proves one of two things: Either
there is a lack of proper responsible
ty for their care and maintenance
Or there is a lack Of municipal en-
forcement of the ordinances provid-
ing for repairs and renewals. Some
thing is wrong. When it becomes ne
cessary to grade a street it is done
either by the city, by creating an as
sessment district and levying a tax
to pay for the improvement, or by pri-
vate contract, the property owners
assuming personal responsibility for

PROF. PIPER'S PROMOTION.

For the second time has the de,
partment Of agriculture gone to the
Washington Agricultural college for
its chiefs of division. The first time
was a couple OF years ago when W. j.
Spillmsn, professor Of agriculture
was chosen to be agrostologist OF the
department. a position Of great honor
and responsibility, and very near TO
the secretary Of agriculture himself
This time Charles Y. Piper, professor
of biology, is the man selected for
botanist, in the department Of agrl-
culture. Professor Piper is a native
of the state of Washington, a young
man, and with a genius for his speci-
alties. He is an interchangeable worker,
the discOverer of many things new in
his lines, and goes to Washington
with an international reputation al
ready achieved. The Agricultural
college suffers a great loss in the
promotion of Prof. Piper, but has rea-
son to congratulate itself that its
staff members are so able as to re
ceiye such distinguished recognition
For the good of the youth of the state.
the Statesman hopes the college will
be able to replace Prof Piper with
another able man.

A cat belonging to c. Trowbridge

to a peculiar litter of kittens re-
Gently. Four kittens should have
been born, but the bodies of all are
joined together. There are four
heads, sixteen legs, and four tails.
but the bellies of all are firmly con-
nected. The fur of the mother cat
is of five different colors and on the
kittens these colors appear, but the
fur of the kittens is of a different
tint, with the exception that each
has white intermingled with it's pre-
dominating color. The freak appears
appears to be in the best of health
and has a vigorous appetite. All the
mouths take nOurishment from the
mother at the same time. 1t is able
to wiggle around and can make fail
progress. The mother cat is a
young one and this is the second lit
ter she has borne. Mr.. Trowbridge
has already been offered $50 for the
curiosity, but he refuses to sell.
