The Most Common Cause of SUFFERING

rheumatism causes more pain and
ing th&. any other disease, for the rea-
son that it is the most common of all
ills, and it is certainly gratifying to suf-
ferers to know that Chamberlain Pain
Balm will afford relief, and make rest
and sleep possible. In many cases the
relief from pain, which is at first tenn
porary, has become permanent, while
in old people subject to chronic rheu-
matism, often brought on by dampness
or changes in the weather, permanent
cure cannot be expected. The relief
from pain whibh this liniment affords
is alone worth many times its cost. 25

The rights of the people of New
port are at stake. Who will con-
serve her interest in the proceed
ings of the Idaho 4 Washington
Northern, endeavoring to secure
perpetual and irrevocable fran
chise?
Article One, section s Of the
Constitution of the State of Wash
ington, under the heading "Dec-
laration of Rights" reads thus:
"No law granting irrevocably any
privilege, franchise or immunity
shall be passed by the legislature"
Are the powers and authority of
the town council of the town of
Newport greater and far more ex-
tensive than those of the legisla-
ture? No man of reason; with
the rights of the people Of the
town, at heart, would dare be
heard to say that the councils
powers are supreme over those of
the legislature, and that it may
give away or barter the use and
occupation of the streets forever.
An act of the Washington legis-
lature, passed Feb. IA, 1905, sec
ton 1854, Pierce's Code, limits the
life of railroads and other corpora
tons to fifty years Par. II, sec
ton 1923, Pierce's Code. Washing
ton, enumerating the powers of a
council of Viewpoints class. to
grant franchises, etc, says, THAT
it may pass such ordinances and
resolutions not inconsistent with
the constitution and laws of the
state of Washington"
There certainly cannot be any
consistency in the town council
granting a perpetual franchise to
corporation which cannot exist in
perpetuity.
If it was the height of wisdom
to grant irrevocable and perpetual
privileges and franchises: there is
no doubt that the trainers of our
constitution would not have placed
the stamp of prohibition upon such
acts.
The governing body of Newport,
and the hour, need man of wis
dom with an iron will. One that
shall stand out boldly for, and
preserve the rights of the people of
the town against all constitutional
encroachments. | believe we have
several such and that they will not
be found wanting at the crucial
moment. 1t is also to be hoped
that the people will not set idly by
and let their rights go Pickering to
the winds. All good citizens should
rally to the aid of the council and
assist in guarding the rights of the
people by meeting the demand of
the I. & w. n. for a perpetual
franchise with loud, vigorous
and telling protest against this
giving away of our streets forever
This ordinance has already been
passed to a first and second read
ing, and will, undoubtedly, come
come up before the council May
18th for final passage. Therefore
it is of the utmost Importance that
every loyal citizen of the towr
should do all in his or her power
TO prevent the passage of this or
dinance, granting a perpetual anC
irrevocable franchise in and Over
our streets.
The ordinance should he amend
ed, reducing the period of fifty
wears or less, ard it is the earnes
desire of the writer that all gooC
citizens work toward this end.

Easter Music ut Churc hes.

For some time past the churches in
Hood River have been paying more
atteption to their music and last Sun
day. being Easter, all Of them seemed
to make special effort to produce a
good musical program. Hood River
can compliment herself upon the fact
that with all the grand songs that
we're sung on Sunda. all Of them were
rendered by Hood River people. The
talent In Hood River seems to have
been hiding its light under bushel,
for many people, including strangers,
we're charmingly surpI ised by the re-
suit, which can only Ee shown through
hard study and an education in mu-
sic. Many city churches send to
other places for their special music,
but Hood River can have all the
music she wants right here at home.
The music rendered in the various
churches was az follows, and words
cannot express the beauty of 1t all:

Controller States Few People
Give Truthful Building
Costs.
LOSS SHOWN THIS YEAR.
ONLY. 159 BUILDING PERMITS
HAVE BEEN ISSUED THIS YEAR
AGAINST ss4 THE PREVIOUS
YEAR.

Fewer building permits have been
issued during the year just closing,
than in the past several years. accord
ing to the statement of City Controller
Parry. The amounts placed into i'm
provements of this character were also
smaller, although two new churches
the Trinity Lutheran and st. Johns
Lutheran, were erected. Last year
1874 permits were issued by the city
but this year. up to date, only 159.
Building permits prove to be a
poor medium through which to secure
the exact amount spent on buildings
for the year, stated the controller"
as it is an established fact that people
do not tell the truth when asked as to
the extent of their work. Although
the idea is absurd, many people have
an idea that they cannot successfully
dodge the assessor, if they tell the
truth about the amount they intend to
spend on construction, thinking that
the assessor will come to the city con-
troller's office and secure data from
the building permit record. 1t would
be foolish assessor that would do
this as the county would eventually
lose much money in the form of taxes,
through an act of this kind, since so
many of the amounts specified on the
permits are incorrect"
When asked as to the ACCESSIBILITY
or each year making a report of the
number of building permits and the
amount actually spent for improve
ments, as specified through them, Mr..
Parry said that he would consider
such an act imprudent, in that Rich
mond people were not imbued with
the spirit which characterized citizens
OF many towns, because they do not
strive to put up the best buildings pos
, sible and tell the actual cost Of the
same. A building permit report from
the city of Richmond would hardly
compare favorably with the same sort
OF report from another city of like
size, particularly when that city was
OF the class referred to. he said.
Although during the past season
building activities have been below
par, already plans have been made by
local people for the construction of
several modern residences, and it is
also probable that at least two big
buildings will be erected in the bust
ness section of the city: the Murray
theater and the building which will

When Harry d. Carey wrote Mon

spent several years on his ranch in

"The Devil"

Mr.. Henry W. Savage made a par
ticularly happy selection when he
chose Mr.. Oliver HEREFORD for the diff
cult task of adapting into English
The Devil the triumphant comedy
which has made such sensational
success in this country and abroad.
Herr Franz Molnar. the author of the
play, was insistent when he gave to
Mr. Savage the sole authorization to
