ANOTHER GREAT SCANDAL.

The fire insurance business. the
world over. is being discredited by the
ineXcusable tactics of the large major
ity of the companies, both foreign
and domestic, doing business in San
Francisco in refusing to pay their
losses promptly.
Almost two months have elapsed
since the fire swept away the Cali
fornia city, and yet no losses Of any
consequence have been adjusted AMI
paid. A number of small policy
holders have. it is true. received so or
60 cents on the dollar, for settling
their claims in full. but the big prop
erty owners, and merchants. have been
left severely alone, so far as paying
their claims is concerned.
Only a few decent companies, with
a proper sense of honor left have ad-
vertised that they propose to pay in
full The others are meanly sneaking
in behind technicalities and receiver
ships and doing their, utmost to avoid
paying their honest debts.
The fact has developed that there
are as great scandals connected with
the fire insurance business, as with
the malodorous life insurance busi-
ness so recently exposed. The San
Francisco fire brought to light the
fact that many small companies. with
digious risks in the California city
we'll knowing that in the event of any
general conflagration they would be
unable to meet their obligations.
Whether or not this was bunco
law. it was certainly an act of moral
turpitude which calls for the most
sweeping condemnation.
Just where the fire insurance COM
panies expect to come out after try
ing to cheat San Francisco out of it's
money in the face of the whole world,
it is hard to imagine.
One thing is sure. Laws should be
enacted Immediately to prevent over
insurance by any company, and pro-
viding for means of getting money on
claims out of the stockholders if the
assets of the companies prove too
small.

QUIT KICKING.

In every town are certain number
of kickers who are always ready to
complain of hard times, depression
and poor business. This is the worst
habit that can be 'ndulged in the
progress of cities. If there is really
no cause for the kicking. two or three
persistent kickers can spread a spirit
of depression by their imaginary suf-
fering.
When this home kicking reaches the
wholesale centers and is carried hack
and forth over the country by COM
mercial travellers, and takes root as it
were in the market center, then it
hurts. Wholesale merchants begin 10
wonder if there is really something
the matter and they begin to investi-
gate, and feel "shaky' and pinch down
on the merchants of the town from
which the kick comes. And in this
way the entire business of a good
town may be hurt by one or two
.croakers who are continually peddling
out their complaints at home and
abroad to neighbors and strangers
alike
Stand up for the town. Have the
cheerful spirit. spread the gospel of
optimism. tell about the bright side,
show the stranger what has heen done
let him find out what is undone;
make it pleasant for strangers, let
them feel your cheerful spirit and quit
kicking about everything.
Every legitimate business in Pen
dleton is growing. The farming and
stock raising communities around the
citv are increasing in productive ca
pacity every year. The schools are
bringing more and more good people
here. The strong, progressive business
firms are building up every day. If
one croaker who is nOn-progressive,
quits. It is no fault of the city. He
will fail elsewhere. It is his method
and not the town.
The East Oregonian believes that
Pendleton is not yet at the beginning
Of its best era. The coming of tho
settlers into the irrigated tracts, the
opening to market of the Furnish
tract, the government project and
other irrigated tracts in the west and
north ends of the county will bring
hundreds of families to the county
and Pcndleton and every other town
in the county will be benefited.
Work for everybody is promised in
the construction of the government
project. The wheat and alfalfa har-
vests arc as great as ever and ther,

CHINESE NEVER WHISTLE.


Did you ever hear Chinaman whis-
tie?
It's better than 10 to / that you
never did, and about the same odds
that YOU never paused to wonder why.
No matte" how brightly the sun shines
or how the hop market fluctuates. the
| celestial never whistles note, says
the Butte Miner,
Hop Lee Sing, n member of Butte's
plain the phenomenon, told the fol-
lowing story:
MANY years ago snake-charmer
went - China from this country. He
charmed t''C reptiles and compelled
them 10 go to sleep by peculiar
whistle, The simple Chinese had never
before witnessed such a wonderful
performance and looked upon the
stranger with awe.
One day a pretty Chinese girl left
her houseboat home and ran away
with the Snake-charmer. The orien-
tails believed that the American had
captivated the girl with his whistle
in the same manner that he charmed
the reptiles.
After long search the foreigner
and his bride were found. The man
was locked up and the girl restored
to her folks. He was ordered to be
killed.
The next morning when the eXecu-
TONERS came to tho prison their cap
tive had escaped. The jailer was ly-
ing in stupor near by and the Chi
namen Immediately decided that he
was victim of the mysterious whis-
tie.
Within short time the snake
charmer was recaptured and again
sentenced to death. Three guards
We're placed over him to prevent a
second escape.
All night long the American sat in
his wooden cage and comforted him
self by whistling songs of his native
land. Just before dawn he closed his
eyes and whispered a prayer.
With a brisk step he walked out the
next morning to met his fate, whistl-
ing as he went.
As he was about to kneel before

ten and sell. and just as much demand
for flour, tA>on. blankets, and other
Fendleton products as ever. In fact,
there is an increasing demand for
every, product of this county, and
every town is advancing.
The increasing postoffice receipts,
the Increasing school enrollments, the
increasing demand for homes and the
Increasing trade of progressive PEN
dleton merchants are sure evidences
OF the advance which Pendleton is
making.
There never has been better out
look than right now, for a good sub
stai,Iial town of 10000 to $4,000 peo-
pie, The city council shows a hope
full. progressive spirit in its determi-.
nation to repair the levee in a substan-
tial manner and pave the two streets
as projected before the high water.
Property in the flooded district is bet
ter today than it was a month ago,
because even a better levee is assur-
ed and so Pendleton is on'the upward
climb, with head up, hopes high, her
business ear open t every opportun-
ity, and her business hand busy with
new schemes of advancement and pro-
gress.
This is not a time for kicking nor
complaining. 1t is time to be buoy
ant and optimistic and the good crops,
rich opportunities and pregnant prom
ises of the future will do the rest.

the Everett auditing committee on the
defalcations of n. c. Daugherty was
made public at a meeting of the school
board today The total shortage for
seven years is $541. 4OS 60, from which will
be deducted approximately $4,000 for
unauthorized, but warranted expenditure
Everett gave 1t as his opinion that the
total shortage for IS years would fall
slightly short of s1,OOO,0Oo, stating that
large amounts of forged scrip had been
found in 1885 and 1889 but no totals or
estimates on these years had yet been
made.
The report scores the officers of the
board the treasurers and president. es-
pecally the finance and auditing com

board or any Of its officers had used even
ordinary diligence in the performance of

would have been impossible, and that
