No Llauor for RctIlight.

Mayor Richardson several weeks
ago issued an order to the inmates
of the redlight district that the sale
of liquors must cease and told them
what the consequences would be II
the law were disregarded. Yesterday
he received evidence of such a char
acter that convinced him that liquors
were being dispensed and today he
issued orders that the entire district
should be arrested and brought be-
fore the recorder on the charge of
keeping bawdy houses.
While the mayor is not posing as
radical reformer he has taken a
decided stand upon certain things
and he proposes to see that they are
carried out.
Blythe time the mayor and the re-
corder get through with few such
cases as the above. 1t is safe to say
that things will not be permitted to
run as they have for many years I'm
the past.-La Grande Observer.

Boise's growing Importance as a
wholesale center will be greatly aug
mented by the opening of the third
wholesale grocery house here on Oc-
tober Is. The new firm will have a

James II. oakes. one OF the large
real estate owners of this city, as
president and William Simpson, vice

wholesale business at his former
home at Knoxville Tenn.
William Simpson came west last
winter and stopped In Boise short
time. investigating conditions here.
He then travelled all over the north

Low DEATH RATE.
Only Eight Out of 1000 Die-Climate
Is Cause,

Oregon's death rate is only eight
in every 1000 inhabitants, based on
population of 100000, according to
the semi-annual report of the state
board of health, which was recently
issued. This is considered an ex-
tremely low death rate and may be
the lowest of any state in the Union.
Many factors assist in increasing
the longevity of the inhabitants of this
state and in keeping the death rate
so low, and especially the equitable
climate, the abundance of rain and
the large rural population.
one surprising feature of the re-
port is that of the total 240S deaths
reported during the half year, 10
were from old age, or an average of
one to every 20 who live longer than
the prescribed three score years and
ten.

Upon counting up the number of

There are yet in the county six or eight
teachers who have not yet applied for

The larger number of them, however,
say that they will not do so, and the
