made the suggestion that the city
council give him an exclusive fran
chise on the liquor trade of the city
for the sum of $4,000 per year, for
a period of years.
He offered to be bonded in any sum
the council might impose, for the OBJ
servance of every law, whether state
or city, would maintain not more than
six or eight saloons would not raise
the price of drinks, and would sur
render his bond on any violation of
the law of which he may be found
guilty and would be personally re-
sponsible for the conduct and charac-
ter of every saloon conducted by him.
He would make the business just
as respectable as It is possible to do,
would take out all boxes, screens and
stained windows, so the public might
see who patronized saloons and what
was going on inside his places at any
time of day or night.
He would close at 10 o'clock every
night remain closed all day Sunday
according to law, would absolutely
abolish slot machines and all games
of dice or cards where men might
waste their time and would eliminate
all Objectionable features of the busi-
ness and would simply cell drinks as
a merchant sells boots or overalls.
In the first place this would put the
business all in the hands of a reputa-
bic man with business conscience and
ability and would eliminate the dive
and the disorderly house, because the
owner could not afford to forfeit such
sum as he would have invested.
1t would give the city as much rev.
enue as it receives from 25 saloons
at the present cost OF liquor licenses
and would reduce police expenses by
improving the character of saloons

ing the deadfalls and temptations Of

A monopoly may be Objectionable
under ordinary circumstances. but
where a monopoly would guarantee
such an improvement in moral condi'
tons, 1t would be acceptable tC
many.
1t may be a Utopian scheme never
to be realized. but the fact remains
that it has entertaining and inviting
features and is worthy of considera
ton from the taxpayers and hom'
owners who are affected by the saloor
business.

TRAVESTY ON THE LAW.

Juries are called upon to bear many
things that are distastefuI. Often the
evidence is revolving, and the ques-
tions in cases are degrading and low
ering to the average individual who
has a moral standard and a mind
that conceives and pursues an intel
lectual ideal.
But of all the distasteful things
imposed upon juries, is the mud
singing" which makes up a large
part of the arguments" before
courts. Questions personal to attor-
neys and wholly outside of the case,
denunciations that are no part of the
law the evidence or of justice are
thundered into the ears of jurymen,
and arguments on irrelevant and far
fetched technical points, intended to
confuse and confound the jury are
given hours of time in all courts,
from the justice court up.
Such oratory and invective are Of
ten entertaining but they are no part
of the case. What did the abuse OF
Heney and Bennett by each other in
turn, have to do with the merits OF
the case against Williamson, Gesner
or Blggs? And yet this abuse and in
vective consumed the larger portion
of the time of each of these dlstin-
gulshed attorneys.

WHAT CUTICURA

Too much stress cannot be placed

Hence the Cuticura remedies have
wonderful in fluence in restoring
health, strength, and beauty to weary
women, who have been prematurely
aged and invalided by these distress
ing ailments, as well as such sympa-

CHRISTIAN SCIENCES NEW USE

Vespasian Warner, who as commits
sioner of pensions distributes $14O,-
OO0, 900 a year, received a letter from
a veteran who had been drawing a
pension for years saying he was not
now entitled to a pension. In the let
ter was inclosed a voucher for $50,
the latest quarterly payment sent to
him, says the New York World.
This was unusual. but not unprece-
dented. Mr.. Warner decided there
must be something wrong mentally
with man who would voluntarily
give UP 500 a month for life. and di-
rected a medical board to examine
him.
The doctors found that the man was
In excellent health, mentally and phys
ically. The veteran said he had APP
piled for the pension when he was in
poor health. but that he had become a
Christian Scientist, and all his infirmi-
ties had disappeared.

THE PRIVATE SCHOOLS.

Five hundred pupils can be ac-
commodated in the three private
schools in Pendleton.
Pendleton academy can take care
Of 2O0 st. Joseph's academy 200, and
Pendleton Business college 100. The
education received at these private
schools is Just as good and thorough
as that received at the same class of
schools in Portland. Seattle or Oak
land, and they should appeal strongly
to Eastern Oregon people who are
now sending thousands of dollars out
of the state and to Western Oregon
for educational purposes.
These institutions are not in the ex-
-perimental stage. They are well
founded. we'll equipped, we'll manned
by proficient teachers in all the
branches taught and offer exceptional
advantage to students from the East
ern Oregon counties. because of the
great saving in train fares and the
convenience of being nearer home
for holidays or vacations. The East
Oregonian takes a delight in calling
attention of parents to these schools.
While the public schools are excellent,
yet there is a demand for education
with religious surroundings, and for a
special business education not receiv-
ed in the public schools. To all pupils
in search of such conditions Pendleton
offers exceptional opportunities.
Western Oregon institutions have
been built UP largely by Eastern Ore
gon patronage and now the time has
arrived when Eastern oregon Is Of
fering equal advantages. with schools
closer to the homes of Eastern Ore
gon students.
Dormitory facilities at Pendleton
academy and St Joseph's academy
will be made ample to all demands
and parents need not fear for the sur
roundings and environments Of chill
dren sent to these institutions.
Pupils for the business college, be-
ing of more mature age will find ex-
cellent homes in the private families
offering board and lodging in the city
and the tuition and cost Of living COM
pare favorably to the cost in any
other city on the coast.
The opening of the coming school
year should see all these excellent
Institutions filled to the limit. It will
be prosperous year for all. Par
ents will soon be looking into the
merits of different institutions of
learning and the East Oregonian
heartily commends those Of Pendleton
to the closest investigation of all.

Furnishing Water For
100000

The expenditure of s17,00O,0O0 for
filtration plant to purify the water
supply of the city is recommended by
Health Commissioner Darlington in a
report which he made yesterday to
Major Mcclellan, says the New York
World. The mayor is said to favor
the plan, and the project, 1t is under
stood. will be taken up as soon as
the mayor returns from his vacation,
and will be put through.
DR., Darlington's report is one upon
which he has been working for sew
eral months. He argues that the only
way to put an end to the growth of
typhoid in this city is through the es-
tablishment of Il filtration plant. Dr.
Darlington says:
- well-made sand filter will re-
move 80 1-2 per cent of the bacteria
from the water, besides most OF the
organic and inorganic materials sus-
pended therein"
He says the number of deaths from
typhoid in the last five years is 1880,
and continues:
MY estimates show that suitable
covered slow sand filtration plant can
be built for the entire Croton supply
of about 500,000,000 gallons daily for
about s170OO,OOO Cat present wages
and prices of materially with total
annual cost of operation. including in
terest, sinking fund, depreciation, etc,
of about 100000. The work could
be completed within two years.
1.-THE plan that the city of New
| York should build sewers and pump
ing stations for the various towns, OF
buy the watershed, is very nearly pro-
hibitive because of the expense. Even
| II the city owned all the land which
would need to be acquired, valued al
$500, 900, 900, there would still be op.
| portunity for pollution.

growth of the city OF New York and

IT'S THE RUST,

Machinery lying Idle is much more
likely to injury than machinery in
use. Neglect, rust and vandalism are
more to be dreaded than wear and
tear. That rule applies to human
machinery as well-the associations
and organizations of men established
for certain purposes. If they neglect
their purpose they let their ma
chinery of bureaux and committees
stand idle. or grow perfunctory-the
result always is the same. Neglect
becomes an established custom. The
organization grows stiff and cranky
with rust. Vandals destroy valuable
parts OF the machinery. Such is the
case with the organized commercial
body of this CITY.
When machinery Is to be started

There Is something OF more than Or

sections each about four miles long;
which are operated with separate power

is known as the carrying rope, and Its
length is 10 miles, and to II are at
