Dcpew VIII Not Sever All His Busi-

New York, Jan. At is reported
that Senator Depew is seriously i'll as
a result of hard work.
Depew this morning stated that his
statement about resigning from the

understood. He purposes to remain

ton is most honorary and which, he
says, will not prevent his devoting

traffic is entitled to the laws protec-
tion, but when he procures a license
to dispense his beverage he is presum-
ed to be law-abiding citizen. He is
required to execute a bond to conduct
a decent and orderly house. In ac-
cepting his money and permitting him
to open his doors for business, the city
government indorses him as a proper
individual to engage in that traffic.
"The proper management of such a
business calls for the exercise of
high degree of intelligence and dis
elimination. Therefore l say he
should not sell to confirmed drunk
ards, minors, persons black-listed or
already greatly inebriated. His pat
rons should not be permitted to dis
turb the quietude of the city by loud
and boisterous conduct while in his
place of business. And it is incum-
bent on every saloon and every en-
ploye in one to aid in regulating this
traffic and in removing and suppress
ing its more obnoxious features.
Music, women, minors, Indians,
confirmed drunkards and black-listed
persons should be kept out. These
are merely suggestions offered for
your guidance and he who Intention
ally and wilfully violates such rules
and regulations as you may establish
for the control of this traffic, should
be made to look to the penalty named
in his bond.
Indians.
I'VE owe it as duty to ourselves
as q law-abiding and self-respecting
people to suppress, so far as it is with
in our power. the sale of liquor to In
dams. All that is brutal, debased and
criminal in the nature of these peo-
pie is developed under the influence
of liquor. They squander their means,
neglect and mistreat their families,
violate their contracts, and refuse to
pay their legal obligations after the
passion for drink has become a fixed
habit.
Therefore you should instruct the
police force of the city to prepare and
forward to the United States Indian
agent a list of the confirmed drunk
ards among these people, that he may

of all persons detected in making sales
to them should be kept until it has
been determined what is the meaning
of the statute prohibiting such sales
by the supreme court of your state,
where a cause is now pending in
which is involved the question of SELL
ing liquor to these people.
Library.
"Pendleton is today, city of homes
ard many intelle trial and cultured
people reside within her boundaries,
and there are large number of
young men and women, who have
graduated from her schools or still in
attendance upon them, interested in
the cause of education.
The legislature, through the instru-
mentality of the club women of the
state, enacted a law providing for the
establishment by the city council of
every Incorporated city of public
library and conferred upon such coun-
ell the power to levy an annual tax
and TO cause the same to be collected
for library purposes. Such an institu-

tion is much needed in our midst.
at would be both ornamental and
beneficial and would attract to your
city class of people that are much
to be desired as citizens. 1t would al
so afford a place where the young
men and women of the city may find
intellectual enjoyment and finish the
education commenced in your schools.
1 therefore urge upon you the neces-
sity of making some speedy and ade-
quate provision for the establishment
of such an institution.
Streets.
''The sidewalks and streets of your
city are in a dilapidated and neglected
condition and require immediate re-
pair and improvement. While these
Improvements will cause the property
owners of the city to expend some
money, the property in front of which
coed street is built will be enhanced
in value in double the amount ex-
pended in improvement. Sanitary
conditions will be improved and the
city rendered beautiful and attractive
to those seeking a place for invest
ment of capital.
Fire Department.
"One of the greatest and surest
sources of protection to the homes and
the inhabitants of city is a we'll or
ganized, efficient and we'll equipped
fire department, one in which every
member will know his duty and as
sumo the responsibility of his posi-
ton. s,I
"The department should receive en-
couragement at the hands of the city
government and sufficient compen-
sation for its members to justify them
in qualifying for the discharge of their
important duties. This is a working
day world. and men who belong to the
department simply for parade or
profit are unfit to be servants of the
public. 1t is only by constant prac-
tice and drills that efficiency can be
acquired and this should be insisted
upon.
Sanitation.
"The public health demands the
adoption and enforcement of radical
sanitary measures. An ordinance
should be passed requiring streets, all
leys and yards to be cleaned, rubbish
and debris to be burned and such
other precautionary measures taken
as will prevent the spread of conta-
gious diseases.
All the practicing physicians should
be required, under stringent penalty,
to report to the health officer an
births, deaths and contagious disor-
ders. And it should be made the es-
pecial duty of the marshal, police
force and health officer to see that
the provisions of such an ordinance
are enforced, and of the city attorney
to prosecute offenders against its pro-
visions.

legislature in its wisdom has seen fit
to confer upon the citizens of Pendle-

regulations for the management and
conduct of such a business, but this
power does not authorize the council
to grant n license for the violation of

Legislators and Business.
To the Editor Of The Star:

To the Editor Of The Star:
While strenuous efforts are being made
to remedy many of the evils which affiict
our body polite, would it not be well to
try to restore public confidence in
those to whom we look for relief sena-
tors and representatives. inasmuch as that
confidence has been much impaired of late
through trials and convictions and articles
in magazines and newspapers during the
past several years? ! submit, therefore,
the following suggestions for considera-
ton:
/. That the compensation of senator's and
representatives be increased to $4,000 per
annum. and that their mileage allowance
| be fixed at the actual and necessary ex-
| penditures incurred therefor
2. That ii be unlawful for any senator or
| representative to act as agent or attorney
| for any corporation or business establish
| ment or to receive therefrom any compen-
| sation for either influence or services in
! their interests during his term of Office.
| 3. That no senator or representa- tive
| shall become pecuniarly interested in any
| business enterprises other than those he
may be so interested in at the time of his
| election, and that his real estate holdings
| in the District of Columbia be limited to a
| family residence not to exceed in value the
! sum of $4,000.
| These suggestions are somewhat In line
with those of Senator Beyeridge, which re-
Gently appeared in one OF our magazines, his
| idea being that in these days the duties of q
| senator representative are so multifa-
| rious important and exacting that in order
! to give them proper attention. and do his
| full duty by the public, he should not be
| permitted to engage In any other business.
| This is the rule so far as most other gov
| eminent officials are concerned, some of
| them indeed being required to give bond
| to that effect. Why should senator's and
| representatives be exempt from such a
| wholesome requirement? 1t may be con-
tended that, morally at least, there is no
| difference between a senator who for a
| consideration assists a concern to dispose
| of its stock and a senator who for con-
/ sideration makes an agreement before one
of the executive departments in behalf of a
/ constituent. Yet in the one case it is by
| law a criminal offense, while in the other
| ii is legitimate and practical.
