When | hear little children pleading
for permission to 90 out on the sidewalk
these warm evenings to enjoy outdoor fresh
air and play. my heart is filled with grief
to hear their mothers say, MY little doars.
mamma is afraid to let You go out on the
sidewalk for fear some little pet Fido may
bite Won"
What a shame that so many of orr
little children are deprived Of the freedom
of our sidewalks on account of so many
useless dogs that infest the great city of
Chicago. Human safety and life should
be held far above dogs of all sorts.

JOHN SLOUGH DIES
AT SALEM HOSPITAL
Agen FruitIand Farmer Finally
SuCCumbS to Attack of
Heart Disease.

John Slough, the old man who was
found lying unconscious on a bridge
near Fruitland early yesterday morn
ing, died at the Salem Hospital at
O'Clock this morning from the injur-
les received about the head and body
by falling, and exhaustion resulting
from the exposure to the cold night
through which he laid.
Slough did not regain conscious
ness, and passed away peacefully,
with apparently no pain. When he
was removed to the hospital an ex-
animation of his injuries was made,
and It was found that the right
cheek bone had been shattered and
the right eye destroyed. When found
on the bridge Slough was lying upon
a round piece of wood, presumably
a towel roll, with small knobs on
each end. One of the knobs evident.
ly hit him in the eye as he fell, and
the sharp corner cut deep into the
cheek.
The dead man was removed from
the Salem hospital to the Rigdon un-
dertaking parlors and prepared for
burial. His brother, Henry Slough,
with whom John Slough resided, and
the deceased's nephews, George Pal
mer and Henry Palmer, will take
charge of the remains, which will be
laid to rest In this city in the City
View cemetery. The funeral will
take place from Rigdon & Lehman's
undertaking parlors tomorrow at
D. m.
There has been nothing further
learned either by the officers or the
residents in the vicinity where
Slough was found concerning the
particulars leading TO the mysterious
manner In which the man was found
lying, or the cause of It, although ey-
idence points toward heart trouble.
John Slough was 20 years OF age
and a long respected farmer In the
Fruitland district. He and HIS broth
er, Henry, are property owners OF
property aggregating the sum OF
Sl1,24O, which Is located a short
distance south OF Fruitland.

Mayor and Committee of City
Council Have Agreed on
a Line of Procedure.
ABSOLUTE NECESSITY
FOR IMMEDIATE ACTION
The Capital Water Commission of
Fifteen Business Men, and State,
City and County Officials TO BE
Called Together for Final Report
ON Plans of Engineers.

Mayor Rodgers has decided that
all obstacles to bringing in supply
of mountain water shall be over
come. He had conference with
the Mountain Water Committee of
the city council, and after going over
the whole situation, it was deemed
possible and advisable for the city to
undertake the struggle for the sake
of the state institutions and the
growing metropolis of the Willamette
valley to have public ownership of
mountain water.
The mayor and the committee are
agreed that there shall be early,
prompt and decisive action to Inn
prove the water supply of the city.
A larger meeting is to be held with
the Mountain Water Commission,
composed of 10 state and county
and school officials and business
men. The reports of the engineers
and appraisers will be laid before
them and fully explained. A crisis
has been reached, when State Engin-
eer Lewis is down with typhoid few
er, and the time for quibbling and
! technical objections must be consid-
cred thing of the past.
1.-THE first step is to amend the
charter at the coming city election, Z"
said one of the committee today.
1.-THE next is to put 1t up TO the peo-
! pie, whether they want public own
ership or not. We believe the peo-
Pile are ready for 1t. The growth of
the city Is enormous, and 1t has out
grown the present water system. We
! have held up the present water COM
pany for year. No improvements
or extensions could be made by them
until this is determined. We have
got to go after better water supply

Los Angeles, Cal, Dec. 1.-The
young girl arrested in San Francisco
yesterday, charged with attempting
to defraud James O'Kelly, the tow
boat king" of Coos Bay, out OF mon
ey by posing as his long-lost daugh-
ter, is not Stella lyman, OF Los An
geles, who is at present living in this
city at the home of her father, ]. II.
lyman, 4S7 Solane street. Miss Ty-
nan, when asked about the affair,
said today;
"I know the girl whom you de-
scribe. l knew her as Mrs. Alexand-
er. If am not mistaken previous
to her marriage she was Della Mar
tel, and her parents are now living
in Los Angeles, either on Date or
Mozart street."
When the girl was first arrested
in San Francisco, she said that she
had lived at 231 East Lake avenue,
but that her father had since moved
away, and she did not know where
they now reside. The only Martell
living on East Lake avenue is Mrs
Della Martell, widow, 4S0 South
East Lake avenue.
Miss lyman seemed greatly grieve6
to hear of the plight of the girl she
knew as Della Martell, and stated
that her familiarity with friends Of
the family, one of whom the girl
named at the time of her arrest, Mrs.
Mamie Rule, of Bisbee, Ariz., does
away with any doubt as to her real
name.
Miss lyman has never been in San
Francisco.

and that the ears and throat were
highly colored. The coroner, who
lives at Bay City, however, had pro-
nounced the woman dead, and the
body was lowered into the grave.
Last night the people of Tillamook
congregated in the streets and many
expressed the belief that the woman
had been buried alive. Excitement
ran so high that the coroner at Bay
City was called up and it was ex-
planned to him that many residents
OF the town believed that Mrs. Hold
redge had been buried alive. AL
though confident that life was ex-
tlnct, the coroner stated that he had
no objection to the body being ex-
humed and readily gave his consent.
Then several citizens called upon Mr.
Holdredge, husban dof the woman,
and ater much persuasion also Sc
cured his consent. At o'clock this
morning the party arrived at the
cemetery and opened the grave.
Again the natural appearance of the
woman was commented upon. The
physicians present lost no time in
resorting to several tests. The first
was the carbolic acid test. An hy-
podermic injection of morphine was
made in the woman's arm. 1t did
not discolor the flesh. The first
test had showed that life was ex-
tinct. Then AN incision was made
in the woman's breast. If circula-
tion had stopped the woman was in
deed dead. Not a speck of blood is
sued from the incision and the body
was once more lowered into the
grave.

BETTEa THAN WHITES.

The fremen of the Georgia Rail-
road carry the matter OF race preju-
dice too far when they undertake 20
deny TO Negroes the right TO earn an
honest living by the labor OF their
hands. There Is = 1stihcation in
morals, and there ought 20 be none
in law, for a policy so inhuman aad
un-Christian- No calling is OF SO
much dignity that any man qualified
10 fulfil its requirements should be
excluded from its pursuit
The learned professions Of law,
medicine and divinity DO not exclude
the Negro, nor do they impose any
conditions or qualifications that are
not imposed on Caucasians or white
men generally. IL is an anomaly TO
reproach the Negroes for idleness
and shiftlessness and poverty, at the
same time erecting barriers OF in
superable obstacles against their en-
ployment.
Social equality and a fair chance
20 make living are two very diff
ferent matters. Mr.. Lincoln once
said that because he believed in
freedom for the black man IL did not
follow that he would be willing TO
marry a Negro woman. And It IS
equally true with respect to the
Georgia white firemen-that because
the black fireman is given a chance
TO support his family. Il Is not 10 be
inferred that the two families Of
whites and blacks are TO visit each
other.
Ia many respects. as the railroad
managers set fGTth in their testi-
mony, the Negroes are better quaIi-
ned for the work Of firemen or sto-
kers than are the whites. They
stand the heat better: they are docile
and obedient. and as the position
Is not one OF great responsibility or
intellectual dimculty. they are entire
y competent 20 fulhll all its require
ments.
II IL comes 10 a question of exclu-
sion on the ground of qualification.
and exclusion ought not to be on any
other ground. IL would seem more
reasonable for the white man to give
up that WORK and turn Il over 20 the
Negro. But there is no iust occa-
sion why either should quit this worI,
as long as they perform IL satisfac-
torily and properly.
But there is much reason why the
white men In the lines of manual
trades should be fa!re- and more hu-
mane To the black man than they
are, in this respect following the pro-
tessional lines we have indicated.
