by leaps and bounds. The wisdom Of
Washington approves itself in con-
temptation of the possibilities of a
permanent presidency such as pre-
walls in Mexico. The presence there
of a permanent executive exercising
almost kingly prerogatives bears mute
testimony to the retrograde state Of
education and general intelligence in
Mexico. The freedom with which we
change public servants in this repub-
lie as emphatically testifies to our ad-
vanced civilization which puts the
country above the Individual. We
have no fear that the government will
disintergrate when we change presi-
dents We have cultivated in the
public schools the idea that any boy
may be president. The corrollary Of
that proposition is that no one man
shall be president for life. The pre-
cedent limiting the number of terms
is that of Washington. It has the
high sanction of universal acceptance

PUMP WATER FOR WAITsBURG.
Council Lets Contract for Big
Pumping System.

WAITSBURG, Aug. 13.-At a
special meeting of the city council on
Saturday night the bids for pumps
and motors for the new filter system
were opened, and the bid of the Halli-
die Machinery Co., being the lowest,
it was accepted.
The pump purchased is massive
affair weighing $4,000 pounds, it is
a Smith Wolfe triplex double action
and is very strongly built, the main
shaft having five bearings. There are
three double action cylinders, thus
giving it the same capacity as a six

new pump has a capacity of $50 gall
Ions per minute, or 100000 gallons in
"a hours. The motor is a 15-horse
power single phase alternating current

CLARK WOOD TELLS Of
HASTY LIFE IN WALLA WALLA
The editor of this paper was hon.

The editor of this paper was hon.
ored with an election as treasurer at
the recent meeting of the Blue Noun
tain Press Association in Walla Wal
Ia. He was deeply touched by this
expression of confidence and esteem.
In fact he does not remember a more
touching experience since President
Roosevelt and the pickpockets visited
Walla Walla, when he lost his wallet
in connection with several other Wes-
ton unfortunates.
1t is true the dispatches say that A.
H. Harris was elected treasurer, but
nevertheless the Leader man could
have had the job. With feeling elo-
quence, and with natural dignity that
crowned him like a halo, he arose and
said:

his only friend on earth, arise to tell
you that you must rescue him from

cumstances that it is not we'll to men,

A furious uproar resulted. 1t seems
that nobody present had ever heard
of Boyd. "Who is BOyd?" what did
Boyd do?" Never knew of Boyd or

and the dull oblivion of his suburban
surroundings.
The boys had a nice time and a glo-
rious feed. They were paraded in a
tallyho by Walla Walla brethren and
saw at close quarters the beautiful
Garden City. This pleasant excur-
sion was married somewhat by the
sentimental outbursts Of Brother
O'Neill of the Prescott Spectator, who
is a native of Walla Walla, and who
pointed out sundry places where he
acquired freckles and stone bruises as
barefoot boy. He saw one small
stream where he narrowly escaped
drowning in his innocent childhood.
