Alderman Muldon last night at the
council meeting offered a motion
which was adopted, instructing the
finance committee TO conduct
searching investigation of the Board
of Public Works. The motion pro
yides for the investigation of all
matters handied by the board, in
cluding the expenditures of money,
the removal Of garbage and the
street superintendent muddle.
An inkling of that there would be-
something doing in the Board OF
Public Works matter was to a Ger.
tain extent made known when Alder.

bers pub in behalf of his client.
Charles H. Gingles, appealed from
the decision Of the board in the
street superintendent case. Mr.. Calm
really started the movement for the
investigation by making such a mo-
tion, but as that offered by Mr.. Null
don is more explicit and covers in
detail the kind of an investigation to
be made, Mr. Chan withdrew his
r'otiOn in favor of that offered by
Alderman Muldon and the motion
prevailed unanimously.
After the adoption of the investi-
CATION order the resignation Of c. Fl.
Turner as a member Of the Board Of
Public Works was read. Friends OF
Mr.. Turner desired it understood
that his resignation was in before

WONDERFUL HANGING LAKE.

Colorado has recently added an
other marvel to her list of attrac-
tions. This is the wonderful hanging
lake, situated adjacent to the Grand
River canyon. on the Denver and Rio
Grande railroad, 10 miles east of
| Glenwood Springs.
High up in a small lateral canyon,
this body of water lies in a peculiar
overhanging basin, formed ages ago
from a gradual calcareous deposit
left by a mountain stream. which all
though perfect clear. has the power
of encrusting everything with which
it remains in contact.
Thousands of years of constant flow
have built up great walls of porous
rock, both above and below the lake,
and the waterfalls thus formed rival
the lake itself in marvellous beauty.
The quantities of green moss hang
ing from the rocky walls, the grottoes
underneath, the luxuriant pines, ferns
and other vegetation in the canyon,
the strangely beautiful flowers, some
of which are found growing on fallen
trees in the lake, all combine with the
remarkable earth deposit to produce
an absolute novelty in natural seem
cry. Tourists are now turning their
steps towards the hanging lake as
one of the new sight places of the
ROckies.-Denver Post.

JUST TELL THEM so.

There's much to do the whole way
through,
And little use complaining,
For the darkest night will change to
light
And the blacklist cloud quit raining.
If worth you find in weak mankind,
Twill do all good to know
That some one thought they nobly
wrought
And frankly told them so.
Enough will remain of bitter pain,
With all the aid you lend;
Some will be sad and others glad,
on down to the journeys end.
AS in the throng you pass along,
With rapid strides or slow,
If Virtue you see in bond or free.
Just stop and tell them so.
If on the road you see a load,
Some pilgrim downward pressing,
A willing hand to help him stand
VIII bring you back a blessing.
SO in the fight 'twixt wrong and right
That's waging here below,
Should praise be said, don't wait til
dead
Before you tell them so.

POOR FARMING DON'T PAY.


Practical farmers pay little heed
to the theories of desk" FARMING and
school farmers, but the practical far
mer often makes costly mistakes.
In the northern part of Umatilla
county farmers are now plowing but
two and three inches deep. In places
the surface is barely skinned off,
leaving the rich soil containing the
wheat producing qualities untouched
and uncultivated.
Is it any wonder that many farmers
in those localities are cursing the
country declaring that it is growing
less and less productive? Is it any
wonder that yields of but 10 to Is
bushels are enjoyed in many places
where this kind OF farming is the
rule, while adjoining fields. where
land was plowed deeper, produce
from 25 to 35 bushels per acre?
The desk and the school farmer
may not always be right in their the
orles. but certainly the actual farmer
is not always right in his practices.
The land in the northern part of

NO HIGHER COURT.

A small town in Colorado, 13,200
feet above sea level, boasts a justice
of the peace. Recently a suit was
tried before him that stirred the COM
munity to its center. from the fact
that one of the parties imported a
lawyer from a distant city.
The case dragged itself out to an
unprecedented length, and the popu-
lace had never dreamed that law was
so full of objections and exceptions
motions, protests, expostulations, and
the like, as that lawyer proved it to
be.
But there was one thing he could
not prolong and that was the prompt
crisp. decisive Judgment for the
plaintiff" as soon as the trial was
fairly over.
well, sir" said the lawyer. in
tones of superiority. 1--WE shall have
to take this case to higher court"
You can't do that mister" replied
the magistrate.
And why not, pray?"
There amt any higher court. This
court is 13.2OO feet above the level
OF the sea, and it's several hundred
feet the highest court in the country"

MORTON'S NERVE.

At a dinner in New York the other
evening President Paul Morton of
the Equitable heard this story related
and did not contradict it, so it may
perhaps he regarded as at least meas
urably true. He had been working
his way up in a railroad office here
when the president dropped in one
day with information that the gener-
al manager had resigned. "Do you
know of a good man for the place ?"
the president inquired of young Nor
ton. What is the salary?" We'll, it
will depend somewhat on the man."
was the reply. Hmm. If you will
pay enough l do know of man, just
the one you need. He knows the rail-
road business from the bottom up and
is mighty hard worker in the bar

the description we will make him a
generous offer" His name, sir, is

the county where shallow plowlng is
the rule, is just as rich and product
i've as the general average OF the
wheat land, in the county outside OF
the center OF the wheat belt around
Helix and Athena, and there is no
reason why it should not produce
more wheat If well farmed.
six and seven-inch plowing will in
crease the yield and will not wear out
the land half as rapidly as shallow
plowing The grain produced on deep
plowing viii be freer from weeds.
more nutritious, more uniform in
quality and more marketable than
the wheat grown on shallow plowing.
Better farming methods have sim
ply added one-fifth to the wheat pro-
ducing area of the county. a few
years ago the northwest portion of
the county was regarded as worth
less for farming. Deeper plowing re-
claimed it, brought It into the list of
productive districts and it is today a
monument to the good sense of its
practical farmers.
The same will be true Of other por-
tions of the county when the same in
telligent methods are applied to them.

PAVING Is IN SIGHT.

The action of the city council in
opening the field for all bidders on
paving, is highly encouraging and is
a sure promise of early street paving.
The home property owners of the
city want paving. They have signi-
fled their willingness to go ahead
with it, The council has Investigated
the Subject and is now getting down
to actual business.
Paving will at once place Pendleton
above the plane Of a country town.
1t will take its place at once in the
lists with walla walla, Boise, Ogden
and other cities of the Pacific coast.
1t is hoped that the council meets
the question fairly and squarely and
acts according to public demands,
and that it pays no heed to selfish
chickering's Of a few nonresident
property owners who have not the in
terest OF the city at heart.
The people who live in Pendleton
and tfho make it their home and their
business center, are unanimously ii
favor of substantial paving at mod
crate cost. The field should be oper
for all bidders-but the counci
should accept some kind of paving
and begin actual work by June 1.

GREETING TO JUDGE LOWELL.

The Salem Journal welcomes
Judge Lowell as a candidate for the
United States senate in the following
manner:
AS the first candidate to make a
state campaign for the principle of
electing United states senator's by the
direct vote Of the people. Judge Lowell
deserves a cordial welcome at Salem.
Four years ago when T. 7. Geer
was nominated by petition for United
States senator. and had his name
placed on the ballot for that office.
the Journal exerted its utmost influ-
ence TO have him go out and canvass
the state.
If he had done so on the platform
of direct election and the national
principles of the republican party he
would be senator today.
The Capital Journal welcomes with
equal ardor the coming of Judge
Lowell, and the firing of the first
gun in this campaign at Salem.
While the editor Of this paper is a
candidate for the legislature, he pre-
fers defeat standing for the principle
of direct election of United States
senator's to success by any comprom-
Use with principle.
We have no candidate for senator,
but the nominee of the republican
party and the choice of the people at
the election June 4th.
We shall welcome the success of
any candidate who contends for this
principle, and advocate his election by
the people and his ratification by the
legislature.
The principle is greater than the
interest of any candidate or any mans
aspiration for state or federal Of
flee.
Men may differ as to their interpre-
tation of the primary law, but there
can be no difference on the all-im-
portant principle that United States
senators shall be chosen by the direct
vote of the people.
! No one would advocate that the
people should abandon electing gov
ernors and congressman by direct
vote of the people.
In a few years no one will advo-
cate electing senators by the legis-
lature.
There is not time or space in this
paper to carry on controversy over
technicalities about the Interpretation
of the primary law.
Republicans and other citizens may
differ as to the meaning of its details
and provisions.
But the principle of reform involv
ed in direct election is greater thar
the law and greater than any men oi
set of men.
In this spirit let US welcome fear
less discussion of the subject by suci
orators as Judge Lowell, who are
going direct to the people in the mos
public, most American and mos
democratic manner possible.

SCIENCE PREVENTS Badness.

Facts of Science.

It is the rarest thing in the world for
man TO be necessarily bald. No man
whose hair is not dead at the roots, need
be bald If he will use Newbro's Herpi-

eide destroys the germ that cuts the hair
of at the root: and cleans the scalp Of
dandrufr and leaves 1t in a perfectly
healthy condition. Mr.. Mannett, in the
Maryland Block, Butte, Mont, was en-
tirely bald. In less than month Herpi-
