MAKING PROHIBITION VOTES.

The plight of the Morning Tribune
ON the prohibition question is pitiable
in the extreme. 1t has taken the
money of the liquor association. it is
alleged is dictated to by the commit

funds. has offended a large per cent
of its former friends alienated some
of its pioneer supporters and now
awakens to the fact that it is alone
in the fight and don't know how to
get back to a plane of journalistic
decency. without swallowing every
thing it has ever said on the subject.
Why. nobody is woriy ying about the
liquor traffic except the Tribune.
one would think from the manner in
which its soul is wrought up that ii
owns half the joints in Pendleton.
The local option law is in force
one of the most munificent democrat
ic laws ever passed in Oregon-and
the people are perfectly capable of
settling the liquor question by the
aid of that law.
There was a medium. practical
ground, on which the prohibitionists
were going to stand, but if the sa-
loon men insist on placing people on
record for or against morality for or
against good government, for or
against saloon domination, for or
against the best standard of decency
in Pendleton. it will not be a difficult
matter to accomplish.
If they will inject a few more
volts of campaign funds through the
exchequer of the Tribune its contor-
tions and infantile spasms will so
thoroughly disgust the business men
and home owners of this city that
Pendleton. and possibly Umatilla
county will go for prohibition. If the
saloon men had kept their money IN
their pockets, or hired the Tribune
to keep still, they would have wor
votes. but as it is, they are breeding
scabs on their own noses" as th'
school boys say.
Every word on the prohibition
question so far published in the Tri
bune has made prohibition vote. be

its grand stand play I'm favor of ''bus

NEW USE FOR OLD CUPS.
Arc Just the Thing for the Mayon- naise Dressing Thinks
 Housewife.

Tho ingenious woman has discovered . new use for her old-fashioned cups and odd cups. They have long been good for nothing in particular on account of their large size and because they have no handles. Yet these big cups are ex- actly the shape of many of the mayon- naise dishes, and may be used to ad- vantage for this purpose. says the Washington Star.
 With the preaching of the doctrines of salads by the apostles of good health there has been an increasing use of let tuce, celery, tomatoes, cucumbers and vegetables of different kinds served cold with dressings. In consequence the mayonnaise cup has become staple article of table service Many people prefer the French dressing to the rich CT mayonnaise; some larger quanti- ty than others It is advisable to have . dish of dressing upon the table, in- stead of dressing the individual salad beforehand.
 The dishes made for holding mayon- naise are to be found in different shapes. Some are oblong, like small sauce boats with a flat rather than lQoped ham, dle at the end. Others are round like cups. They will all hold perhaps half pint, and the saucers to match are round or oblong. according to the shape of the dish, The round dishes are noth- ing more or less than large cups.
 The woman who makes the most of everything utilizes cups that she has or picks up at the bargain table. and has an up-to-date article of table service with little or no expense.

STYLISH HOME GOWNS.
Popular Materials and Designs fol Evening and Reception
 Wear.

Lace gowns are thought exceedingly smart for reception wear, and can be either all black or all white, while there are some most attractive models in the black lace over white or colOred lin- ing, says Harpers Bazar. Black and white effects, however, are not thought so smart as they were. Black, white or colored crepe de chine, crepe de Paris and the various weaves of crepe are much in demand for reception gowns, but are made up with so much lace that there does not seem to be any reason for calling them crepe de chine gowns
 The odd lowered taffeta silks in the light and most peculiar of shadings are also in style, with plaited or f1ounced' skirts. One model of pale mauve and pink changeable taffeta with founce skirt has each flounce edged With the daintiest lowered ribbon not over an inch and half wide. Soft fichus of chiffon edged with lace ruffles and el- bow sleeves finished also with lace soften and make more becoming the rather hard lines that the taffeta some times possesses in these cold shades of coloring.
 An all-white gown is the smartest for reception wear, and can be in light weight cloth, embroidered silk, crepe de chine, chiffon or batiste. It may be on severely plain lines or elaborate in ef- feet, with bands of lace, embroidery or fancy trimming. Only one point is to be strictly insisted on-it must be be- cnrninG

THERMOMEI

To people who are fortunately unfa- used in taking the temperature of pa- tients are always source of consider able interest. A professional nurse whose experience has led her to numer- ous localities and brought her in con- tact with many phases of life tells two stories which illustrate the foregoing statement, says the New York Times.
 In one of the local hospitals she had a male patien, who was threatened with a run of fever. AS she approached his bedside one morning he Querulously complained of a lack of nourishment.
 "I didn't get enough to eat" he said. "I feel almost starved"
 "Well, we'll" she said, soothingly. I've will see about that. Here," she added, "let me put this in your mouth" /"
 She inserted the thermometer be- tween his teeth and turned away a mo- ment. When she looked back he was working the bulb around between his jaws at a great rate.
 Hold on!" she cried, you will break the thermometer"
 He drew in his cheeks and apparently gave a mighty pull on the little instru- ment, and then she removed 1t.
 Say" he grumbled, there's no use giving me that. couldn't suck blame thing out of It."
 Another patient, a woman. begged the nurse for drink.
 Wait" said the nurse, and thrust tho thermometer in her mouth.
 The patient lay back on her pillow and placidly closed her eyes. A satisfied ex- pression slowly stole over her face. When the time was up the nurse with drew the tube.

CHRISTMAS buy YOUR TOYS AND CHRISTMAS GOODS FROM THE old TOWN DRUG STORE CHRISTMAS
RAILROAD NEWS.
The K. G.. o. & II. Sold Their
Bonds and Will Resume Work.

MIR. Q. l.. Kendrick received another
letter this week from the X. G. D. & II.
r. r. people. The company have been
having some trouble in getting right
of-way, but have everything settled
now, and will proceed with the con-
struction of the road.
The company have sold their bonds
for s1s,0O0,0 900, which is enough to
build the entire line to Athens and
equip it with up-to- date rolling stock.
As nothing has been doing lately on
this road the people had lost interest
to some extent, but it won't take long
to revive.
Everyone recognizes the need of a
line north and south and it is given
out from a reliable source that if
the K. o. o. & II. people don't build
there is another system figuring on
the same line.
Athens is already lively and pros
porous town, but think of the posi-
bilities when we get that road north,
with shops and general office at this
place. The representative OF the X. Q.
o. & II. is expected to be here in a few
weeks and then steps will be taken to
get right way in this county, and
be ready for construction to commence
in few months.
The above article is reproduced from
the Athens Knocker. Wonder what
Palestine is doing or is going to do in
this matter? The impression is grow
ing among our people that if Palestine
is ever the city she should be she will
have to have more railroad outlets. 1t
is time to do something practical if
Palestine wants this road.
