TRUSTEES, although they were not close
ly confined but were permitted to en-
gage in outside work under the eye of
a guard. None of the prisoners under
Robbins direction wore stripes.
Taking advantage Of moment
when the guards back was turned,
Holland walked around the end of the
car into the lumber yard, toward the
faucet where the workmen had been
getting their drinking water. 1t was
supposed for a few moments that he
had gone for drink, but as he did
not return promptly, the guard began
looking for him, and found that he
had decamped.-Boise Statesman.

NO EXCUsE FOR CATARRH.

Worst Cases Quickly Cured by Breath
ing Hyomci--Guarantcc by Tall
man 4 Co.
There is really not the slightest eX-
cuse for anyone having catarrh now
that Hyomei is so widely known and
so easily obtained. The worst cases
of catarrh are quickly cured, simply
by breathing the remedy through the
pocket inhaler that comes with every
outfit.
Used in this way for few minutes
four times day, every particle of air
that reaches the nose, throat and
lungs is laden with germ-killing and
health-giving Hyomei.
The sale of the old-fas shioned stom-
ach remedies for catarrh has been re-
duced to almost nothing since the in
PRODUCTION OF Hyomei. Tallman & Co
will tell you that their sales on this
Nout-o date line have fallen off al
least two-thirds in the last few years
while the demand for Hyomei has in
creased ais It's curative powers be-
came more widely known.
The complete outfit, consisting of
neat pocket inhaler, medicine drop
per and bottle of Hyomei costs only
one dollar, while extra bottles can b'
obtained for so cents, making Hyomc
the most economical, as well as tn,
most reliable method for curing ca
tarrh.
Tallman & Co. positively guarantee
a cure when I1yomel is used in ac
cordance with directions or they will
refund the purchase price.

Will You? Won't You--
Come to the Fountain?

Now Pendleton Is famous
For a lot of pretty things,
II long has held the banner,
For it's mud-producing springs.
But since the City Council
Has resolved to pave them down,
Another new phenomenon
Is startling all the town.
'Tis Dyer's FOUNTAIN!
A Soda Fountain!
As sparkling and refreshing as can be,
And when the wind is flyin',
And with thirst you're almost dyin',
or II some goods you're buyin',
Why, just take "a glass" and see.
You will feel some ten years younger,
And perhaps a pinch of hunger,
So you'd better take a package Of the
"s9" COFFEE.
When the twilight. and the cleaning
And the tiny silv'ry stars,
Urge the friends to stroll out roaming
or to whirl around in cars,
When the moon peeps DER the noun

And the sun sets in the sea,
Bring your friends to Dyer's FOUE'
TAIN.

lists, we are sorry to say, even in such
excellent newspapers as Baltimore
city boasts Of We do not wish to
criticise our brethren, but think that
in all justice they should have shown
the same extraordinary activity in
both cases. The accounts of the es-
cape Of the negro Tolley have been
very meager, while Isaac Winder had
on an average of six or eight col
umns a day from the time he left
TCwson Jail until his return. The
seriousness of Tolley's crime and the
fact that he is United States pris-
oner should have entitled him to a
reasonable degree of publicity, if the
metropolitan press had consclen-
tiously in view its avowed object.
But underneath it all we feel that
there was an animus against Con-
gresham Talbot, and the Winder
incident seemed to be safety valve
which allowed the escape of much
political feeling which had been seek
ing a vent for sometime. 1t was
useless to attack Mr.. Talbott's pub
lie record, for he has made one of the
best congressman that the state has
ever had; so in order to bring him
into disrepute, the effort was made
to in some way connect him with
Winder's trip without lief" Per-
haps we are little obtuse, but as
we see the light, it seems rather alb
surd to draw a relationship between
the two. However, the Baltimore
press took a contrary view, and the
Winder case was entirely overdone.
Perhaps our city brethren have had
time to see the error of their ways,
and decided that crime and crimi-
mails, even when attired in the at
tractive garb of newspaper write
ups, are not sought after by the
reading public in any such way as
the Winder case was handled.

The GRAND JURY'S RECOMMENDA-
TON.

We call especial attention to the
report of the grand jury, which is
published in full in another column.
It's out Of the ordinary and recon-
mends cardinal departure in urging
that a committee of the grand jury
annually investigate all of the public
Offices of the county, ard report the
same for the information of the tax
payers.
Wehave not the slightest objection
to publicity; on the other hand,
again and again these columns have
urged that thepeople ought to know
how their business is being COZ
Quoted, and insisted that publication
be made Of even the smallest details
that are interesting to the reading
public. We have without cost again
and again given away space when
we thought the people ought to have
information, which, while legitimate
advertising, was not paid for. The
only way that any political party
can succeed itself in the different Of
fees to be filled is by being perfectly
frank and open in all doings.
Our only objection to the recon-
mendation of the grand jury is that
it would seem rather reflection on
the average office-holder-a sworn
official under the law, to have the
conduct of his office examined into
by the same body Of men that inves-
tigates felonies and misdemeanors.
1t would be too much like putting
one on an equality with the other
Certainly a man who has been chosen
TO an Office by his neighbors and
friends should not be classed with
the foul criminal-the one a consci-
entious public servant, and the other
rocking with crime and standing on
the verge of the scallold, the peniten-
tiary or other punishment.
If our people want the publicity of
an examination, it would be far bet
ter to have a law enacted creating a
special office for this purpose. The
chances are that number of repu-
table men could be induced to serve
without pay, which would be Il
recommendation over the system
contemplated by the grand jury, as
that would cost money, and we be-
lieve the same good could be accom-
plished on a much higher plane.
We reiterate that the people are
entitled to full information concern
ngall public matters, but think that
an investigation by the committee
OF the grand jury would carry both
odium and unnecessary expense.

BE FAIR, CITY BRETHREN.

The unfairness of some of the Bal
timore newspapers has been recently
shown up in the escape Of United
States prisoner from the Baltimore
jail. Last spring it will be remem-
bered that great hue and cry was
raised when Isaac Winder, a con-
victed murderer, escaped from the
Towson jail while the building was
undergoing repairs. The newspa-
pers made all kinds of sport of their
ncighboring county officials, whom
we believe did all that was possible,
and afterwards quoted up the odium
Of escape by recapturing the negro
and executing him.
The man who escaped from the
baltimore Jail was an educated negro
wanted by the government on the
charge of forgery. He used a method
which is as old as the hills in crimi.
nal records. At odd moments he
manufactured a dummy to imper.
senate himself in the cell and then
slipped out, hiding in lumber pile it
is supposed, until after dark, when
he scaled the 1S-foot wall that stood
between himself and freedom.
These escapes are unfortunate, but
bound to occur as long as crime ex-
lists. No matter how vigilant the Of
fcials may be, criminals are some.
times more crafty and can outwit
them. Both cases are unfortunate,
and we sympathize with the prison
officials upon whom the public places
the Llame.
The burden of this editorial, how
