Just at this time the members of
the county court are sadly perplexed
regarding the location of new
bridge across Mckay creek, In the
neighborhood of the Ely and Curt
wright crossings. During the high
water a year ago both the bridges at
the Ely and Cartwright crossings
went out and they have never been
replaced. AS both crossings are close
together and somewhat expensive
bridge is necessary, the court has de-
cided to build but one structure and
is endeavoring to leave the location
of the bridge to the people Of that
community.
There are three distinct locations
urged for the new bridge. 1t is de-
sired by some at the Cartwright
crossing. by others at the Ely cross
ing, while still another contingent
desires the bridge located between
the two crossings and a new road
new location.
In order to ascertain the sentiment
of the people of the creek regarding
the location, the county court has re-
quested all residents of that section
to meet with the court on Wednes-
day Accordingly at that time a
caucus will be held at the court
house for the purpose of agreeing
upon a location If possible.
Wherever the bridge may be To-
Gated it is the intention of the court
to build a steel bridge of a 100-foot
span. Also it will be necessary to
construct fills at both approaches so
as to cause the water to flow directly
under the main span of the bridge.
In view of this and the size of the
bridge needed the structure will be
an expensive one, and for this reason
the problem of location has been a
difficult one for the court.

Contracting Parties Well Known and
Popular Here,

At st. Mary's Catholic church last
evening Nellie Welch and Bert Geer
were united in marriage, the cere-
mony being performed by Father
Neate in the presence of a few i'm
mediate relatives Of the bride. I'm
mediately after the ceremony a we'd
ding repast was served at the home Of
the brides sister, Mrs. Lee Drake.
The above wedding was quiet af-
fair and was kept somewhat of a se-
cret until after the ceremony had ac-
tually been performed. Both of the
contracting parties are quite well
known here. Mr.. Geer is a nephew
of T. 7. Geer, and for a number of
months has been the night editor of
the Morning Tribune. He is a very
capable newspaper man, and while
here has made many friends. The
bride has for some time past been
the night operator at the local tele-
phone office and has made her home
with her sister.
Mr.. and Mrs. Geer left on the west
bound train today for western Ore
gon and expect TO spend the summer
at Newport. They will return to Port
land in the fall and contemplate liv-
ing there. Mr.. Geer has resigned his
position on the Tribune.

Osteopathy
Comment From the Boston Globe.

In commenting on the recent orr
ganization of the osteopaths of New
England, into a permanent society,
the Boston Globe says: Although
osteopathy is but of 10 years g. owth,
1t was shown yesterday that it has
made remarkable progress nj the heal
ing art. over 1000 graduate osteo-
paths are today practicing this means
of healing, and the principal school,
the American School of Osteopathy
at Kirksville, Mo, has more students
than Harvard Medical college. 1t has
more colleges and more students than
homeopathy, and is second in num-
bers to allopathy.
Osteopathy deals with nerves large
ly, and makes a more thorough studJ
of their use, abuse and injury thar
any other system.
No stimuant is administered tc
whip jaded nerves into action, ne
sedative is given to make it seem al
II pain had departed. The actua
cause of the arrangement is hunted
down and an effort made to correc
it. So that cures by this system. whil'
not always rapid, are permanent

ELECTION AT HERMISTON.
June IS, TO Vote on Incorporation
and Also Officers.

By order of the county court a spec
ial election is to be held at Hermis-
ton on June IS, for the purpose of de-
Gliding whether or not the people OF
that place wish to have the town in
corporated. Also, an election of city
officers will be held at the same time,
the following being voted upon:
Mayor, six councilmen, recorder, mar
shall and treasurer.
By holding the two elections at the
same time the expense of an addi-
tional election will be saved, and as
there seems to be little doubt but
that the incorporation idea will carry,
the officers chosen will be eligible to
serve.
