For about year the oregon Elee-
trio had A MERE RIGHT OF WAY
AGENT APPEARING BEFORE THE
CITY oficials in matters relating TO
It's franchise.
Now a man may be a very good
right Of way agent but utterly un-
NJ TO deal with officials OF city gov
ernment or the city council.
Even an engineer may be good
At THE LEGITIMATE WORK or
his PROFESSION and be an utterly
unfit person TO deal with public mat
ters through properly constituted
public officials.
The successful management OF
property interests like the Oregon
Electric REQUIRE THAT SOME
FRIENDLY UNDERSTANDING Ex-
isT between the engineer of the cor
poratIon ana the engineer OF the
city.
The legal adyi'er OF the city
and OF the corporation SHOULD
CONFER FREELY AND REACH
CONCLUSIONS before matters are
threlhed out IN city council.
The head OF such corporation
should appear before the proper
committees and thresh out the de-
tails and reach agreements after pa
tent consideration aud before pub
fishing statements.
N that had been done and there
had been full and ample consldera-
iion and pre'entatlon by both

YOUNG CHILD DIES
OF HYDROPHOBIA.
Dying Child Bit Her Sister Who Is
Now Under Treatment.

Trenton, n. j., Sept 2.-Following
the death in the hospital here of Ger
trude Homer, seventeen months old
baby, of rabies, her sister Martha, 10
years old, whom the child bit on the
arm a few days ago, was sent to the
Pasteur Institute, in New York City.
The local physicians feared that the
older child may have been inoculated
with the rabies germ, although the
bite on her arm was very slight and
has caused her no trouble 80 far.
The children are the daughters Of
Gustave Homeir, a printer. Exactly
a month ago the baby was bitten by
a pet dog. She was lying alone In a
room in a cradle when her mother
heard her scream.
Finally she developed commissions,
in one of which attacks she bit her
sister while she was holding her in
her arms.
After the baby was removed to the
hospital the dog was killed and clear
evidence of rabies were found. When
the baby died it was decided to bring
Martha at once to the Pasteur Insti-
tute.

THROUGH SOUTH,
Water Six Feet Deep Floods Homes
and business Houses in
Atlanta, Ga.

Atlanta, Sept 3.-As a result OF
the most destructive floods since
1887 in eastern Georgia and western
South Carolina many lives have been
lost. enormous damage has been
done to property, railroad traffic is
blocked and communication both by
telegraph and telephone is cut of.
A freight train from Asheville to
Spartanburg ran into a washout near

jured The tracks Of the Southern
submerged. several trestles are
down on the Charleston and Western
Carolina road and many landslides
and washouts are reported on the
Asheville division of the Southern.
While flood conditions prevail in
all of eastern Georgia, by far the
greatest damage has been done at
Augusta. nearly all OF the city be-
ing under water.
Not fewer than forty lives are lost
and property worth several million
dollars has been destroyed. In both
the Carolinas heavy rains fell con-
tinously for As hours on ground al
ready water-soaked
At Camden, S. c., 10 persons lost
their lives. They were on toll
bridge watching the food when the
structure gave way.
Hundreds OF cattle have been lost
by the river stockmen and practical
ly every acre of bottom land, the
richest In the state, is under water.
Although conditions are serious
all along the Savannah River, Au-
gusta is probably in the worst shape.
At eight o'clock p. m, communica-
ton with the outside world was cut
of with the exception OF single
telephone wire and telegraph line
of the Georgia Railroad running
partly into the city. Over these It
was reported that the entire city is
practically under water.
In the downtown portion business
houses, telegraph Offices and news
paper Offices are completely demoral-
ized.
The Union Depot is under ten feet
o. water, and in the residence dis
trict on Green street the water is
six feet deep.
