LOST IN WALLA WALLA.
Union Says Strangers Lose Their Way
i'm Daylight.


Strangers visiting Walla Walla for
the first time find they have great
difficulty in finding almost any place
that may be designated, even within
a very few blocks of the business sec
ton of the city, says the Wana Walla
Union.
In the first place they find that the
streets are very irregularly laid out
and do not follow any well defined
system. Not a street in the city runs
from north to south, nor a single one
due east and west, and it is said that
there is not a straight street in the
city that runs from the limits on one
side to the limits on the other
Walla Walla as originally designed
seemed to have followed the meander-
ings of Mill creek, and when later ad-
ditions were plated the owners
seemed to have followed their own
sweet will in regard to connecting
their streets with those of the original
town.
All mistakes that may have been
made in the past along such lines are
now beyond recall, and the only thing
left to do is to make the best of them
by such means as are within reach
of the citizens and city government.
The city has been growing so rap
idly of late that even the experienced
cab driver frequently has great diff
Guilty in finding the right place,
whether it be at night or day.

The widespread interest taken II
the sad plight Of Oregon during thc
present session of congress is showr
by the following pertinent editoria
from the Washington Post one of tht
leading papers of the national capital
1t is a humiliation to the people O.
oregon that there has been no mar
in the house of representatives from
that state since the opening of con
gress.
1t will be n greater humiliation tc
them If the sole member of thai
state should appear and attempt tC
participate in legislation while he is
under indictment both in the District
of Columbia and in oregon.
The house tolerated the presence
of indicted members, at the last ses-
sion, but public sentiment has quick
ened since that time, and II the Ore
gon representative should offend II
by taking his place among the legis-
lators his reception might convince
him that his usefulness has vanished
The report comes to the Post from
a valued correspondent In Oregon that
the people of that state do not APP
pear to appreciate fully the duty rest
ing upon them of sending men of high
character to Washington.
1t is impossible to credit this sate-
ment. Whatever the condition of po-
litical machinery in that state, it is
incredible that the people generally
are indifferent to the standing of the
commonwealth in congress.
Public opinion has never reached
such a stage in any state of the Union
that the people have not honored mer
of high character and attainments
and deplored the presence in office
of their opposites.
The people of Oregon have been
represented by both kinds of men
and possibly through Indifference
permitted certain conditions to con-
tinue long after they knew where
their duty lay. The shock of recent
events is sufficient to prevent any
further negligence on their part.
That an awakening has occurred
in Oregon as we'll as in other parts
of the country is evident. The ap-
pointment of the Hon. John M. Gear
in as senator from that state has been
a reinsurance of the sound and
healthy condition of public sentiment
in Oregon, and has done much to re-
store the standing of Oregon in con-
gress.
If the people shall select men of his
stamp at the forthcoming primaries
and elect two of them to congress
next June, the shame and humiliation
of past events will soon be effaced SC
far as the usefulness of the delega-
ton is concerned.
But If 1t should happen that Ore
gon should send poor or corrupt ma
terial to the house of representatives
it would he a double reproach to
them, for it would have been done
with their eyes open and would be in
effect an affront to the rest of the
country. 1t would be a declaration
that while a man of high character
may. reach congress by appointment
the people prefer to elect the other
kind.
We believe that Oregon after her
bitter experience, will take pains to
send to congress a delegation that will
reflect credit on the state.

o. r. & n. passenger engine No.
1S4, which pulls the Spokane passen-
ger train in and out of this city
daily, boasts of one of the most ex-
citing and remarkable histories of
any locomotive on the entire system,
and perhaps on the coast.
Back in the SOS, when the Union
Pacific had the o. r. & N. leased,
engine 1874 was numbered 1898 and
was stationed at Kamela as a helper,
where she was driven by Pete ST.
Cyr or Hair Oil Pete" as he was
more familiarly known.
On this engine Pete made his wild
dash down the Blue Mountains in the
spring of 1899, to prevent a collision
between freight and passenger train
which had been given a lap order.
Engine 1898 was standing in the
yard at Kamela with steam up, when.
it was discovered that the lap order
had been given and the two trains
were approaching each other on the
mountain side. The freight train had
just left Kamela going eastward and
the passenger train was toiling up
the mountain from the east and a
horrible collision seemed inevitable.
Grasping the situation in an instant,
Hair Oil Pete" leaped into the cab
of the 1893 and dashed out of the
yards, to catch the freight train
before the crash came. Out of Ka-
mela is three per cent grade, with
sharp curves, deep rock cuts and high
mountains and the daring feat of
catching this train was extremely per-
ilous, since the curves were sharp
and the train could not be seen any
great distance ahead.
With whistle screaming and the
engine rocking and reeling around
the curves, st. Cyr made five miles
in less than four minutes and sue
ceeded in stopping the freight train
ebout mile away from the approach
ing passenger, neither train being
aware of the mistake until after the
freight had been stopped. ..
st. Cyr is now in the Boise peni-
tentiary where he is serving a 1O-year
sentence for killing a man named
Emmons at Meadows, Idaho, two
years ago, in a difficulty over a team
of horses.
His feat stands alone in the annals
OF railroading on the o. r. & N.
