Athena. April 14-(Editor Eas
Oregonian) Dear Sir: In your issue
Of this date there appears commu'
milton as special from Athena with
reference 10 Athena's wz,er works
which is wholly misleading and &,
undoubtedly inspired by the knock.
ers for an object Your article
states that a statement furnished
/ from the recorders books by b. b
| Richards showing that there is $500
deficit since last December. Is no;
true and cannot be substantiated by
facts. In the first place the recof11-
er's books do not show any thing OF
any nature with reference TO the wa
I ter commission matter. In the sec
ond place there IS no such deficit in
tie last four months. The commits
sion has no outstanding warrants or
Indebtedness at this time other than
the water bonds. Further. / do not
believe Mr.. Richards ever gave out
any such statement. 'Tis true that
the springs furnishing water for the
gravity supply have failed to furnish
sufficient water to fully supply the
city the last IL months or more, ne
cessitating the commission TO resort TO
the pumping system for part OF the
supply. II is also true that the COM
mission some three years ago put in
force a very low rate on water system
based on gravity supply which is as
low or lower than any city in the
state. which supply II II continues to
be insufficient will necessitate the
advance Of rates. The city has a good
supply Of water at the pump station
probably much greater supply than
any artesian well will supply and at
much less cost. The pumping plant
is steam pumping plant khich is ex-
pensive TO operate at best and the
water commission has been engaged
for some time In investigating the
feasibility Of changing the system TO
electric power and have already gone
so far as TO get estimates on an elec-
trio pumping plant. All OF which
your correspondent could have ascer-
tained by inquiry Of the water COM
mission had he been seeking knowl-
edge and facts instead of knocking
Imagine my surprise on reading
your paper this evening to see con-
tanned there such a statement under
such prominent headlines. and know
ing the East Oregonian has always
been willing TO correct an error, re-
spectfully ask that you give this space
in your valuable paper.
Respectfully.

TREE PLANTING AS
BUSINESS PROPOSITION

There are not over 10000. 600 cords
Of spruce standing in the whole coun-
try and the annual consumption ex-
ooeds s.eee.Qe0 cords. About one
half OF this IS ground into pulp. The
expectations that a substitute might
be found in corn stalks and other
vegetable flbres have thus far not
been realized. and the paper COM
panies have begun the planting Of
spruce on a large scale. There Is In
ieresting information in the report
concerning experiments with quick
growing trees-oatalpss. for instance
TO be made into railroad ties The
general conclusion on this subject Is
that tree culture could be prOfitably
taken up by farmers having a moder-
ate number Of acres Of untlllable land
as well as by large operators in lum-
Der. Whether viewed as a strict bus
mess proposition or as an incidental

PARKER's REPUTATION.
l. Known As Manager OF One OF
Cleancst shows on the Road.

Cleanest shows on the Road.
C. W. Parker, who owns. con-
trolls and operates all OF the attrac-
tions bearing his name. has earned
an enviable reputation by reason OF
the sterling methods he has employed
in their management no less than by
his fixed determination TO make a
name for the Parker shows by de-
serving and gaining the confidence
and good will OF that portion of hu-
manity that is partial to good. clean,
wholesome amusements. His ef-
forts along these lines have been more
than sufficient to immortalize any
man. and We believe that the hlstor-
tans OF the future will proclaim him
a benefactor Of mankind; such is the
c. w. Parker Shows soon to appear
in Pendeton.
1T is claimed OF the management
this year that The G.. W. Parker
Shows will be New in everything but
the name" and the present indIca-
tlons are that the claim Is well found
ed. Certainly they will be as re-
markable for the shows that are mis-
sing as for those present, and the
coarse, vulgar and disgusting features
that appeal only to the vicious and
depraved will be searched for in vain.
Taken in their entirety there will be
eighteen paid attractions and at least
six sensational free acts. to which, OF
course, must be added two complete
brass bands and the immense steam
calllope, one OF the largest ever turned
out by any manufactures"

FULTON REFUSES THE
CHINESE AMBASSADORSHIP

Washington, April 16.-Ex-Sena-
tor Charles w. Fulton will not go to
China as ambassador extraordinary
and minister plenipOtentiary. Accord
ing to information received here yes
terday. which Is not Official but is
nevertheless considered reliable in
every way, Senator Fulton has in
formed President Taft that he will not
accept the appointment as Chinese
ambassador.
II is understood the senator has de-
cided not to accept the proffered APP
pointment owing to his desire to re-
main I'm oregon and practice his pro-
fession, the law. He has decided that
he cannot afford to accept the apoint-
ment and allow his law business to
further lapse from lack Of personal

Life Imprisonment.

of cruelty possible to conceive, not
necessarily in the treatment OF the
victim but in the suspense undergone
by parents and friends, which is more

ment that follows a death. 1t Is a
crime that invilves less risk than mur-
der, and It gratifies extreme malevo-

Death Demand Historical.

Cleveland Plain Dealer: The demand
for the death penalty must appear
somewhat hysterlcal. It's motive is
good, but 1t Is made without careful
consideration. Anything that would
stop kidnapping is desirable, but the

be of small avail.
