cts degenerate day the wine tank
ard is the gauge of the hero. And
there is such an utter perversion
of public justice that the guilty
never fails of all acquittal if he can
furnish the bride.
To receive this rapacious,
drunken, skeptical generation, the
jaws of hell are opened wide. His
hideous tusks are still dripping
with the blood of generations pie
viously consumed. But the multi
tude already doomed and damned
scarcely halts in its decensus Aver
no to listen to the prophets fervid
temperance address.
The Teachers Lantern.
The woe of God against the
drunkard is not a capricious or
sporadic affair. 1t is interviewer
with the physiological constitution.
The sources of retribution are not
external, but internal. Every in
ebriate carries the fire and brim-
stone of his own hell in his very
person.
The prophet talks by the book.
Heis true to physiological science,
not of his date only, but of ours.
He wildly depicts the impercepti-
bic growth Of the alcoholic appe-
tite; the cord becomes the cart
rope. How soon the bon vivian t
finds himself in the hopeless tread =
mill of an uncomfortable passion
Henceforth his might consists in
his capacity to drink, and simple
wine gives place to fiery concoc-
tons. Then follows complete per
version of moral ideas. The de
movement is death and hell.

COUNCIL IS AFTER
THE OPIUM JOINTS
WILL PASS A SPECIAL ORDINANCE
Living i'm Tents In City Limits Is to he
Prohibited. II Ordinance Is
Adopted.

The city council got through with a
night. Several ordinances were pass
ed, among them being one providing
that no doors should be allowed on the
boxes i'll saloons, restaurants, pool
rooms or any place in when intoxi-
eating drinks were sold. Penalty for
violation of this ordinance is a fine of
from $40 to $50, or thirty days in Jail,
or both.
The ordinance creating the police
force and setting the salaries of patrol
men at $40 per month, was adopted, as
was also another providing that the
department should be under the control
of the marshal, and that his pay
should be SIS month.
Two ordinances prepared at the in
stance Of the health department were
read for the first time, and laid over.
The first prohibits people living in
tents any place within the city limits.
and provides that no tents shan be al
lowed on any lot within the city limits
except small ones used for playhouses
by children; the other provides that no
shall be permitted to haul table refuse
or swill through the city. Both or
dinances were laid over.
Council granted the petition of a
number of property owners interested
for the grading of Fourth street, be-
tween II street and the north limits of
the city, it being shown that the
street was in an unsanitary condition.
The petition for wooden sidewalk on
the east side of South Eighth street,
between Walnut and Spruce streets,
was granted.
F. G. Abel, night scavenger, tender
ed his resignation, and asked that he
be allowed to complete two contracts
he had on hand, one with the scnool
board. The council voted not to ac-
cept the resignation
The ordinance granting to the North
ern Pacific the right to construct a
sidetrack to the brickyard of Garrett
was adopted, but the council amended
it to provide for a life of five years, in
stead of fifty, and further to reserve
to the city the right to grant a fran
chise to any other road or to any per-
son or corporation the right to the use
of Selah street. This petition was
looked upon with some suspicion, as
it was feared it might be n scheme of
the Northern Pacific's to cause trou-
BILE for the North Coast, but evidently
such was not the case, and if it was,
the attempt was unsuccessful, Is the
ordinance was left in such shape that
the North Coast can hardly be trou-
bled.
A resolution of intention to improve
Front street, between c and H streets,
by the construction of a wooden side
walk, was adopted; the clerk was in
structed to advertise for bids for the

TO PREVENT LOCAL OPTION.
state Liquor Dealers Said to be Pre-
pairing for Big Fight.

The Washington Liquor Dealers as
ISOLATION is preparing for a bitter
fight in the next legislature, to pre-
vent the passage of a local option
bill, either modelled after the Oregon
law or copying the features of that
act. The liquor dealers will have to
win their fight in western Washing
ton.
1t was stated recently by a promi-
nent Seattle officer of the liquor deal
ers' organization that they had lost
practically all of eastern Washing
ton, even before the campaign opens.
A fight will be made to save something
out of Spokane and Walla Walla coun-
ties and there is possibility the
liquor dealers believe, of getting votes
in the mining districts. But the great
er proportion of the east side vote is
already conceded to be organized
strongly against them.
The fiat footed statement was made
that if local option prevailed in east
ern Washington the only towns GER
tain not to go dry would be CleElum,
Ellensburg, Walla Walla and Spokane.
There might be other towns won, but
these are the only ones counted upon
by the liquor dealers.

IF. L. Pitman. chief engineer of the
North Coast road. who has been dub
bed the 'nestor' and granny of West

formerly been a division engineer on
some Northwestern mountain line. He
gets the latter of his above titles
through his Unsuitable appetite for 4

grees maximum curvature. Certain It
is that these people are taking infinite
pains to get the best the country af-
fords. In some places they nave even
secured two parallel lines of right of
way for many miles at a stretch. This
is in line with Northwestern engineer
ing, which is dominated by the Wander

issued by Mr.. Strahorn on the Seaboard

building Of a wooden sidewalk on
Mckee avenue. On motion of Council
man Linbarger the council ordered a
public drinking trough placed at some
convenient point on the west side.
The presence of the opium joints in
the city was discussed, ana the fact
brought out that at the present time
there is no way in which the city can
get at these dens The city attorney
was instructed to prepare an ordin-
ance, and make it as strong as possi-
BILE, to enable the police to get after
the dope fiends.
Chairman Thompson of the fire COM
mittee reported that he had received
two bids on the remodelng of the
front of the fire department headquar-
ters, to permit the use of the three
horse hitch on the heavy hose cart and
chemical engine. One was from A. +.
Switzer for s26s.5o, and the other
from Charles Grim, for LAS. He also
submitted plans for new city hall
and fire department. and stated that a
building in accordance with the plans
shown could be erected for about $12,-
900. The building would be 5OxI20
feet, two stories high. He said the lots
on the corner of B and First street,
diagonally across from the new coun-
ty jail, could be secured for s3700 The
city had been offered, he stated, $500
for the old city hall property. The
councilmen examined the plans of the
building, but the whole matter after
some discussion, went over until the
next meeting.

is they nave spent lot Of time and
money in getting right Of way to the
approaches OF the pass and they now
have that country we'll covered with
engineers making their final location.
THE large amount of money being
spent in getting these results would
certainly be thrown away by the Mil

North Coast. This leaves only the
Northwestern as a connection for the
North Coast line, and there are lot
of jointers now being linked together
to prove that this is, after all, the
combination. There is only one posi-

railway engineer. spent most of last
summer with a large party in finding
the mouth of .-almon river. In doing
this he had to strike the Grande Ronde
| river at a point some 80 or 40 miles
east of Walla Walla and follow the
Grande Ronde down to Snake river
and up Snake river to the mouth or
Salmon river.
This is where his survey stopped
and this is the one point the North
western line in it's progress westward
can not miss. This Clark survey. al
though very quietly worked and mys-
FERROUS at the time, was quickly noted
by the Hartman or o. r. & N. inter-
ests and with great haste they put a
number of parties into the field in the
Grande Ronde country and have COM
menced construction down in that d.

so narrow and tortuous that one road
can effectually block another This
construction work is being pushed to
the utmost right now Mr.. Clark was
later discovered in charge of North
Coast locating party over in the va
kima country and has been with that
company right along ever since.

Another Old Warrior Gone.

Louis SmartlO,. better known as
Lewey Tom, died at his camp in the
Tieton basin last Thursday morning
The deceased was so years of age The
cause of death is unknown. 1t is
thought however. that an over-indul-
gence in bad whisky was the prime
cause. Louis was a we'll known char
acter in the city. He was the son of
Old Man Tom, who distinguished him
self for bravery and good generalship
in the fights that occurred between
the whites and redskins in the earlier
days. The old gentleman always point
ed with pride to bullet that entered
his back and lodged in the abdomen
while he was trying to make the
grand getaway in one of the battles.
The funeral will be held today from his
humble residence. Interment will be
in the Indian Catholic cemetery on the
Ahtanum.
The Indians claim that he was poi
soned, and are trying to have the case
taken up by the authorities. What
steps will be taken. If any, are not
known.
