DRINKING

we are sorry to say, Is sometimes sim ply habit, and very costly haDit, too, because when you drink the nefarious intoxicants your pocket SUI fers first, those dependent on your earnings suffer second, your health (which is your happiness and wealth in this world) suffers thirdly, ana your creditors suffer fourthly, and so on' It would take a whole column to men ton all the unhappiness intoxlcahts cause We'll, it's almost as Dad ana injurious to be compelled to drink poor cheap, trashy, bad tasting quality tea and coffee. We wish to say to those people who claim they do not like tea or coffee to give the quality we sell just one trial-that's the time youh hear them say that drinking is not habit. but truly a necessity, because the kind we sell is the clean, new sea son, high grade quality, but low Tn price, always palatable and real good tonic for both brain and nerves. Our coffee is real good bracer ill the morning, and we sell butter at Poe per pound that's worth 30c.

Rock Island H., April Editor of
The Argus: In the present municipal
campaign, which has departed greatly
from the usual manner of conducting
such campaigns. there has been a
strong tendency among the republican
press and spell-binders in their efforts
10 laud the abnormal talent of their
candidate for mayor in dealing with
municipal finance.
They have either allowed their zeal
to overcome their judgment or have
thrown the truth TO the winds, and
have adopted a willful misrepresenta-
ton Of facts. A person not cOnversant
with the facts, or unacquainted with
the situation, might be led TO believe
Cif he is susceptible OF believing such
rot) in reading the Yaporipgs of the
Daily Union, that at the advent Of the
second Knox administration, the citys
financial condition was in such a de
plorable condition that the municipal
ity was on the verge OF bankrupt and
ruin. Such a statement is ABSURD In

cipal year.
However. the Knox Administration
did not pay for any of it as the adj
ministration OF Mr.. McCOnOchie (my
successor) interviewed between Knox
and mine and paid the balance on the
levee Improvement.
We fail to observe any exhibition OF
a master stroke of finance, either in
the promotion of these extensive and
much needed improvements or in the
very ordinary method of paying for
them.
The payment was arranged for al
the contraction of the debt, and it re-
quired no extraordinary ability of sue
ceeding administrations to place the
same in the budget OF the annual APP
preparation ordinance.
In the Inauguration of extensive i'm
provements such as we have, the posi-
ton of the city is very similar to that
of a man who desires to own a home
and has not the money with which to
acquire il. He may own his lot but is
compelled TO borrow the money &c
build his house. In like manner of the
city, he must anticipate the future to
some extent, or he will have no home.

l do not object, in fact l think it
commendable for politicians and press
TO extol the merits of their candidates.
but they should confine themselves to
the truth and not seek to elevate one
administration and disparage another
by a Misrepresentation of facts and
figures.
If my two administrations are charg-
ed with expenditure of large sums of
money, the city certainly has tangible
assets to show for it.
Probably. if my successors and par

r'The Tenderfoot,' wrote better than
they knew when they evolved THE
Tenderfoot." While earle did not
claim that he had written a piece of
extraordinary originality, he managed
TO bring out one that is genuinely
funny and one in which there is great
opportunity for attractive and cnarac-
teristic costuming and colOring. He
caught the spirit of the open air when
he wrote the lyrics and Hearth, on
furnishing the music caught the
spirit. The result is score of tunes
that are all of the whistling variety.
Some Of the remembered songs are
My Alamo Love-" The Tale of the
Tortured Thomas Cat" "Adios,'' 1.-The

Fascinating Venus "Only a KISS"
and the splendid finale of the second

it will only be because they realize
that refusal will pile up greater
trouble for the future. 1t will be
great advance, and the Esch Townsend
bill on such basis, unless made nu-
gatory by clever amendments, will be
a greater benefit to the people than
Washington now has as advanced
railroad laws as any state in the
union. but the orders of it's commits
sion do not become Immediately eff
fective in case of an appeal. The law
is a corrective agency, which has it's
effect without the necessity of the
state commission acting. The rail-
road companies may forestall COM
plants and orders from the commits
sion by complying with the law. This
is exactly what the railroad COM
panies did after the passage of the
interstate commerce act, and before
the supreme court rendered it nuga-
tory as to rate-making. They com
piled with the long and short haul
clause, and with other provisions,
which are now disregarded in max
ing interstate rates.
There is one thing that the new
law must contain, if the "immediate-
ly effective" provision is cut out. There
must be a means provided to get
speedy decision from the courts on
appeal, so that orders of the COM
mission can be passed on within
few weeks after they are issued, in
stead of being tied up thus perpetual
ing injustice for months and years.

NOTICE TO ADVERTISERS:
MONEY SAVED BY COMPETITION.

A few days ago the council author
lied the purchase OF a metropolitan
fire engine of the second size for
for $4S5O. In Chicago the Metropoli-
tan engine of the first size like that
for which this city paid $500 two
years ago, is sold for $3.50, including
rubber tires, extra Wheels extra tires,
ball bearings, extra axles, etc, to the
value of $3.50, making the cost of the
largest engine without extras and rub
Der tires $500. In Cincinnati a few
days ago two Metropolitan engines Of
the larger size, with rubber tires and
extras, were sold for $4,000, or $4,000
for one. The extra cost of the rub
Der tires would more than offset the
freight on one of the Metropolitan
engines from the factory to Walla
Walla.
Cleveland not long ago bought for
twelve hundred dollars a combination
chemical and hose wagon just like
that for which Walla Walla paid
$3.50 two years ago.
The Statesman quotes these prices
that the council may see the benefits
of competition and the mistake of
fD1 in NIL lott h.
tations of hired agents.

A RATE BILL COMPROMISE

A Washington correspondent gives
the report that railroad interests are
preparing to negotiate a compromise
with the president on rate legislation.
After conceding all other features of
the Esch Townsend bill, they will
call a halt on it's essential section,
the one giving the interstate COM
merce commission power to declare a
rate unjust and substitute another,
which shall be imme 1iately effective,
and remain SO unless and until re-
versed by the courts. AS a reward for
conceding all the other ground. it is
said, the railroads will insist that the
immediate effective" clause shall be
Struck eIt,
This looks like a very artful pro-
gram, and one which will give the rail-
road senators a chance to perform
some grandstand gymnastics for the
benefit of their constituents, while
framing things exactly to the railroad
pattern. The railroads are as anx-
ious as anybody to abolish the ter
minal railroad steal, the private car
evil, and the pressure of favored ship
pers for rebates and mid might tariffs.
They do not want the government to
fix rates, and will only yield that
power if convinced, as they may soon
be, that it is dangerous to oppose the
be conceded, however, they will see
that it is hedged by all possible re-
strictions. The commission will not
have power to change a rate except
in case of a complaint, followed by
the necessary hearing, and then the
new rate ordered by the commission
may be held back for a year or more
while the appeal is fought to the
highest court.
That is not what the shippers ant
consumers of the country want, but i
