LEWISTON MAN
is IN PENDLETON.

Says His City Is Going to Spend $780,
900 I'm Paving-Thinks Bryan's
Election Is Sure.
That the city of Lewiston will
spend $200,O00 for street paving with
in the next few months, perhaps |.
the belief of M. D. Mills, a prominent
business man Of Lewiston, who pass
ed through Pendleton today on his
way home from the national demo-
cratic convention at Denver.
Mr.. Mills arrived from Denver last
evening and was the guest of his un-
Gle, w. A. Siddone, Northern Pacific
section foreman in this city, while
here.
He looked over Pendleton's btu
lithic paving while in the city and is
very favorably impressed with it.
Lewiston at one time decided to use
wood block pacing but after a thor
ough investigation the city council
found that it was a temporary paw
ing at best and the council changed
its mind.
The city will spend about 5000, 900
In street paving and 1t is believed
that bitulithic will be adopted as all
investigations have tended to show
that 1t is really the most substantial
and durable of all the paving materi-
ais.
Mr.. Mills is enthusiastic over the
prospects for Bryan's election in the
coming presidential election. He
says that the Denver convention sur
passed every other convention of re-
cent years in enthusiasm and noise,
and it is believed that the democracy
has entered the race to win.
Mr.. Mills attended the democratic
convention of 1900 as a delegate from
Oklahoma territory and he declares
that this convention was so much
more enthusiastic that there is no
comparison.
81 like Pendleton because it is so
much like Lewiston" said Mr.. Mills
to the East Oregonian. Both towns
have similar surroundings and inter-
ests and We feel that there is much
in common between u.s."

WATER ION A DEAD LEVEL. >
Two bitches In Malheur County Run.
ming Side by Side Garry Water II
Opposite Directions.

Over in the irrigation district of
Malheur county is one of the most
unique engineering feats recorded in
the west and the East Oregonian
deems 1t worthy Of mention.
In the valley along the Malheur
river wher the land is level for miles,
are two large irrigation canals run
ming side by side for three miles and
so nearly dead level is the ground
there that water runs in opposite d.
rections in the two ditches.
The bitches come into the valley
from different directions and from
higher ground and the momentum of
the volume of water forces It across
the dead level of the valley, in oppo-
site directions. At one end of the
valley one ditch passes under the
other In a flume.

THE FIRST TASTE
Learned to Drink Gomez when baby.

If parents realized the fact that coffee
contains a ug-caffeine-wh!ch IS es-
peciauy harmful to children, they
would doubtless hesitate before giving
the babies coffee TO drink.
when was child in my mothers
arms and first began to nibble things
at the table. mother used to give me
sips Of coffee. As my parents used coffee
exclusively at meals never knew there
was anything 70 drink but coffee and
water.
And so I contracted the coffee habit
early. I remember when quite young
the continual use of coffee so affected
my parents that they tried roasting
wheat and barley, then ground it in the
cOffee-mil. as a substitute for coffee.
But II did not taste right and they
went back 10 coffee again. That was
long before Postum was even heard OF.
/ continued to use coffee until I was =,
and when I got into Office work, I began
TO have nervous spells. Especially after
breakfast I was so nervous I could
scarcely attend to my correspondence.
At night, after having coffee for sup
per, could hardly sleep, and on rising
in the morning would feel weak and
nervous.
"A friend persuaded me TO try Postum

but later when boiled good and strong
il was fine. Now we would not give I'D
Postum for the best coffee we ever
tasted.

ommend Postum 10 all coffee drinkers.

Why Dreyfus Suffered
At Hands Of France

On September 20. 1894. Colonel Sand
herr sent TO General MeTrier a document
which implicated Dreyfus, who was
then a captain. with an alleged conspir>
acy to 81 military secrets 10 Germany
and Italy. On October l of the same
year Dreyfus was detached from the
war Office and found himself under
strict surveillance. Two weeks later he
was summoned before the minister Of
war 10 find that a commitment had been
made TO send him To prison. On the
following day he was placed under ar
rest. On the third day before Christmas
Dreyfus was found guilty and sentenced
to be publicly degraded and imprisoned
for life.
That commenced a national issue
which shook France to the very founda-
ton. II was an issue in which every
other nation felt a keen interest. II was
justice against the regime OF the army.
Dreyfus was a Hebrew and the feeling
against Hebrews in France was 50
strong that riots were frequent. Fami-
lies were disrupted over this famous
question and prominent men took part
IN the discussion
