ECHo'S GOOD SHOWING.
Finances of Hustling Little City in
Good Condition.

The Echo Register says of that
towns excellent financial condition:
Some Of the would-be loyal citizens
have been making a terrific howl
about the city being out OF debt at
the time the present city officials
took their office. This is absolutely
false
At the time Mayor Esteb resigned
and Mayor Scholl was appointed the
city was in debt to the amount of
S135754 although the treasurer's book
showed that the city was practically
out Of debt, and as a matter Of fact
was, these warrants were outstanding,
some of them in the First National
bank at Pendleton. and some In the
Bank of Echo drawing interest.
From the first of October, 1907, TO
the first of February, 1908, the city
received from all sources S1570.S6,
and expended for all expenses occur
ing during that time $10577O, leaving
q balance Indebtedness of $S7O.4S at
the time the present council commenc-
ed to handle the reins.
From the first of February to the
first of June the city has received
from all sources $S2SS.S7 and expend-
ed including all the city's indebted
ness, $2766.45, leaving an actual ball
ance on hand of s522.42, although at
this time there Is at the Bank of
Echo to the credit of the city sum
of S2297.3S in cash.
The present city council h asspent
$1,000 in repairs on the reservoir,
pump house and pump, erected a good
and substantial bell tower costing

Boise Gamblers "Got Him."

Deputy Sheriff W. ]. Driscoll was
removed from office today by Sheriff
Hodgln, acting at this time because his
own resignation removes him from Of
flee next Monday and he had to act
soon or not at all, says the Boise Capt.
tai News. The removal was made be-
cause of the activity Of Driscoll in the
prosecution Of gambling cases this
spring and because the demand was
made by Chief of Police Francis and
Mayor Haines, who feel that the inter-
ference with gambling caused them
considerable unpleasantness, to say
the least oft, according to Mr.. Dris-
coll and his friends, Notwithstanding
the denial of Hodgln that the gambl-
ing matter had anything to do with 1t.

No Hunhug.

No humbug claims have to be made
for Foley's Honey and Tar, the well
known remedy for coughs, colds and
lung troubles. The fact that more
bottles of Foley's Honey and Tar are
used than any other cough remedy
is the best testimonial OF It's great
merit. why then risk taking some
preparation when Foley's

MaY Add New Course.

With a desire to further perfect
the pubic schools Of Baker, Superin-
tendent ]. A. Churchill contemplates
adding a manual training course to
the already splendid courses of train
ing given students, says the Baker
City Herald.
Should he decide to inaugurate this
splendid feature which is now being
taken up by all OF the larger cities in
the country he will have the indi-
vidual support of the schools pat
rons, for under his management the
schools have advanced steadily and
surely.
II would be hard indeed to give too
much praise to the manual training.

Potatoes Yield Excellent Crop.

The results Of the potato crops of
many settlers are sufficient evidence
that this irrigated soil is bound to be
very productive, says the Hermiston
Herald. For more than three weeks
new potatoes have been ready for
market.
F. G.. Bancroft has been having ex-
cellent yields from his tract south of
town, the potatoes being of fine fla
vor and quality, The first of the
week he brought in 500 pounds
which brought cents per pound, Mr..
Bancroft evinces great confidence in
the producing possibilities of these
lands and his tract, though not a year
old, is conclusive proof that his faith
is well founded

OREGON SHEEP CLEANER.
Few Cases of Scab Reported BY
Lytle.

Lytle.
DR.. W. H. Lytle, federal sheep in
spector for Oregon, passed through
Portland last night on three weeks
trip of inspection up the Willamette
valley, says the Oregon Daily Journal.
DR.. Lytle says that oregon sheep are
in better condition now than ever be-
fore, there being but few isolated
cases of scab on the ranges.
The wool market, while weaker
than usual, he expects will improve
before very long, as the growers are
holding their product for higher
prices. None of the choice wool clips
of eastern Oregon have been sold yet,
as the sheep raisers are all in cir
cumstances that enable them to hold
their product until the price suits
them.
Secretary Dan Smythe Of the Ore
gon Woolgrowers association is also
in Portland. He says the oregon
sheepmen are well pleased with the
outcome of their recent fight with
the Washington woolraisers, who
were defeated in their latest attempt
to grab some of the Oregon range in
the Wenaha forest reserve.

BELL SHOWS YELLOW IN
GO WITH LEONARD LAUDER
Black Boy Wanted TO Quit Every Time
He Hit the Mat, but Walsh's
Fancy Counting Saved
Him

The flfteen-round preliminary be-
tween Lauder and Bell went the limit
in every sense of the word, and after
a great display of yellow on Bells
part the decision was handed to the
white boy. Lauder had the harps
playing slow music around Bells head
from the first of the opening round un-
til the finish. but was not there with
the wallop to put his man down for
the count, although Bell was on the
mat for the greater part of each
round, partially from telling blows re-
ceived, but generally with the hopes
of avoiding light punishment.
In the first round Bell went down
four or five times, but only one blow
was dealt out that carried the real
stuff behind 1t to do the work. The
other falls were mostly due to the new
canvas. The rounds from them up to
and including the seventh were tame.
The eighth saw Bell go to the floor
three times with an expression on his
face as though he were looking for a
guiding star to steer him out of his
trouble. He was down repeatedly in
the next four rounds and was only
saved from being counted out in one of
these by Tommy Walsh stopping be-
tween seconds to warn LADDERS Sec
onds and those along the ringside for
handing out words OF cheer TO the
alligator bait. dusky, dinge or what
ever other pet name that happened to
come to them.
The call for the last round must have
sounded like the call for chicken to
Bells ears, and when the three min
utes were over he lost no time In
heading for his dressing room The
yellow showed up in him so much that
his black skin seemed to change to a
new color that would make any orien-
tai envious.
