ton in which he took most interest
was bill which he introduced to pre-
vent the working of children in fac
tories more than sixty hours per week,
and made an earnest effort to secure
it's adoption, but the sentiment of the
Legislature was that inasmuch as the
Legislature enacted, two years ago a
labor bill, and it has only been in
operation one year, not to make any
amendments to the law at this time.
He was a strong supporter of the
Ward bill and other wise temperance
legislation. He stood for a change in

ing with emphasis that upon a matter
of that character there ought to be no
political considerations but that men
of all parties ought to unite in giving
proper compensation to the men en-
trusted with the lives and property of
it's citizens. He led the fight against
the bill to repeal the charter of Adj
vance, which passed the Senate, and
was pending in the House when the
Ward Bill came UP in the House. The
Ward Bill put the distilleries at ADJ
vance out OF business, and the bill
therefore to prevent the manufacture
Of liquor at Advance was tabled. Mr..
Grant made an earnest and aggressive
fight against the Ward Bill. He Sc
cured the passage of the graded school
bill for Mocksville. Mr.. Grant is a
coming man in the Republican party
in the State. Chairman Rollins says
he is one of the ablest men in the
party.

BOYCOTT Is IN FORCE.

The few remaining gamblers left
in the city and a certain class of sa-
loon men are enforcing the boycott
against the East Oregonian because it
demands the enforcement of the laws
of decency.
They have bluffed several weak
kneed institutions to make them be-
lleve that the gambling element here
is a representative of the entire COM
munity.
Why is the East Oregonian being
boycotted and by whom?
Because it demands the enforce
ment of the laws on gambling, selling
liquor to boys and Indians, on the
removal of saloon boxes and because
il demands that moral conditions in
the city be such that the wives and
daughters of Pendleton citizens may
walk down Main street without being
insulted on every block by a drunken
ruffian.
Who are the men who are enforc-
ing the boycott?
Do you find their names on the
| register of the Commercial associa-
| ton? Do merchants select them on
committees to provide for public
meetings? Are they found at social
functions. where the wives and daugh-
ters of Pendleton citizens congregate?
Do YOU find them taking part in
bringing enterprises and new indus
tries to the city? Do you ever men
ton their names when asked for a
list of leading business men of Pen
dEeton?
| OF course not And yet R few bus
iness men think that 25 or 80 of this
class of people can dominate and rule
or ruin a city of 1000.
Friends of decency and order are
urged to read the advertisements In
the East Oregonian, and since the
other side is making a systematic ef-
fort to put the friends of decency
out of business, before you spend a
dollar, find out with whom you are
spending it. You may be supporting
the opposition, unaware.

Shall it be said that the law-lovinl
elements fail because they do MO-
stand together?

TO SCHOOL PATRONS.

No city in the Inland Empire will
offer better school facilities than
Pendleton, when the next school year
opens in September. Three elegant
new public school buildings will then
be ready for occupancy, this addition
to the school room of the city making
ample facilities for 1000 pupils.
Pendleton academy will be prepar-
ed with dormitory facilities to accom-
modate outside pupils and additions
to the course of study will perhaps be
made TO meet growing demands from
school patrons.
St. Joseph's Catholic academy is
just closing one of the most success
full years in its history and at the
beginning of the next school year will
be better prepared than ever before
to accommodate its growing patron
age. The boarding facilities will be
improved if possible and it will espec-
tally appeal to parents having young
children and who are in search of a
boarding school.
With the additional favorable fact
that moral conditions in Pendletoh
are constantly improving, and the
temptations that have formerly rur-
rounded young men and women in the
city are being reduced, Pendleton can
hold out inducements to seekers after
good schools that cannot be excelled
i'm eastern oregon or Washington.
These additional facilities should
add 100 families to Pendleton at the
beginning Of the next school year.
In addition to the public schools
and academies, Pendleton Business
college offers a special inducement
for young men and women Of the In
land Empire to secure first-class
business education, including stenog-
= raphy. bookkeeping. business forms
correspondence and all forms of bus
mess training, at very moderate cost
This institution should keep eastern
Oregon boys and girls in eastern Ore
gon andN the money that has hereto
fore been spent in Portland and in
Puget sound cities should be spent in
building up a home school which viii
meet every condition in the course
Of securing a business education.
The East Oregonian is proud of th'
school facilities of Pendleton.
1t believes that upon this excellence
depends the future growth and pro
gress Of the city. Wherever a clas
of school-hungry people congregate
there is certain to be a clean, mora
upright, progressive city and sue
Pendleton is as surely destined to b
as the sun is certain to rise tomorro'
above her overshadowing hills.

THE PATAGoNIAN PRESS.

The inhabitants of Southern Pata-
gonia are not such lot of big-footed
naked savages as the old school books
represented them. They are civilized
enough to sustain El Fuegino, a news
paper that champions the cause of the
down-trodden masses at Porvenir on
the straits of Magellan. With honest
pride FL Fuegino proclaims itself the
best advertising medium between the
straits and the South pole. A recent
issue contained a well-displayed half

Sullivan.

RESOLVED, TO BUILD WELL.

Good resolutions, perhaps, are the
first step toward good roads.
One resolution adopted by the con-
vention yesterday is worthy of being
followed closely by the county courts,
and that is the one which reads as
follows:
I'VE recommend that public offic-
ials, before proceeding with. any per-
manent road Improvement, employ
competent engineers to insure proper
grades and safe estimates. to the end
that the cost of the different plans
may be fully understood"
How much of the road work done
every spring in Oregon is done with
out any idea of permanency? 1t is
largely made to tide over a present
emergency. in the belief that some
thing will happen later to make the
improvement permanent
If we build but a mile hereafter,
let us properly survey it, properly es-
innate the cost, establish proper
grades, lay proper foundations for I,
permanent grade and build a road
that will last more than a year 1t
will be economical to do so in the
end. The first cost may be more than
road is usually the last and only cost
Let us begin Systematically and build
well.

five rounds DAILY made Farrell look like
"A novice. but I'm the sixth Farrell buttod
him. cutting a cash over his eye. This
was the only round that Farrell could
hay any claim 10, although some OF his
supporters say he had the best Of the
bout.
DAILY was too shifty for tho coiored

rounds jabbed Farrell at will Daily
displayed his old time form in his foot
work and in the first round Farrell
could not reach him. Farrelrs best
work was I'm the cHnches. when he
pounded DAILY over the kidneys. Had
DAILY the strength OF former years he
could have put the colored boy out al

Many OF the spectators think that
such fighting as butting should be cut
