INFORMATION"

The secretary Of the oregon prohi-
bition committee has written to the
Oregonian giving some facts regarding
this city. He was in Pendleton recent
ly and says he saw "an immense brick
woolen mill in course of construction,
streets were being paved and many
new subdivisions were being laid
out" This information is very pleas
ing but it would be more gratifying
still if it were only true which it is
not with the exception of the state-
ment regarding the woolen mill. How
ever the information" from the Ore
gon secretary is more to Pendleton's
liking than was the dope" circulated
during the Idaho prohibition fight. In
Idaho the saloonmen said prohibition
had ruined this city while the prohi-
bitionists said in substance that the
town was dead before prohibition
struck it. Both sides lied.

the tax levy was high. To meet this
deficit and meet the running expenses
for the next year will require an eight
mill city tax upon fun property val
uation. This will be approximately
three times the ordinary city levy OF
the past.
Now these facts are not published
in a spirit of pessimism. Far from it.
They are published to show the con-
dition of affairs so that voters may
know and act accordingly. There
is need of more indirect revenue. The
expenses cannot be lowered to any
extent. We cannot do
without police, without street lights,
without street sprlnkling or withou,
o fire department. The city's salary
list is already light, About the only
men who draw pay for their work are
the police, recorder and city attorney,
The mayor and councilmen serve
without pay. 1t will be difficult to
economize along this line.
What is the solution of the prob
lem?

HOME LIFE.

Now the nights are growing long
,er, and the frost is in the air, and it's
nice to hug the fireside in your trus-
ty rocking chair, with the good wife
there beside you, feeding cookies to
the cat, while the energetic children
play the dickens with your hat. O,
it's nice to look around you, and to
feel that you're a king, that your
coming home at evenings makes your
joyous subjects sing So you read
some twenty chapters of old Gibbons
dope on Rome, and you know what
human bliss is in your humble little
home There is really nothing better
in the way of earthly bliss, than to
toddle home at evening, and to get
welcome kiss and to know the kids
who greet you at the pea green gar
den gate, have been wailing broken
hearted that you were two minutes
late! There is nothing much more
soothing than a loving woman's smile,
when she sees your bow legs climbing
Ger the bargain counter stile! If
you don't appreciate it, then the bats
are in your dome, for the greatest
king a-living is the monarch of a
home!-Walt Mason in Portland

THE PALACE DOGS OF CHINA.

The story of the Pekinese dogs has
flavor of romance. They were the
palace dogs of China, rarely seen out
side of the royal enclosure. the pen

1t has been known for a long time
that an extraordinary breed of toy
dogs called lion. sun or sleeve dogs
existed in the imperial palace of Pc
king, but foreigners did not get hold
of specimen until the sacking of the
summer palace in 1860. Lady AL
Queen how at that time five of the
little animals were found in an apart
ment which had been occupied by the
emperor's aunt.
These five dogs were taken to Eng
land, a pair of them being given to
the late Dushess of Richmond by
relative who was present at Peking.
Lord John Hay and General Dunno
secured the remainder, one of those
secured by the latter being so small

PROTECTING PETTY THIEVES.

In Spokane recently four girls were
caught stealing from a department
store in which they worked. Their
rooms were searched and a large
quantity of stolen goods discovered.
The management of the store refused
to prosecute the girls but contented
itself with discharging them.
Commenting upon this affair the
Spokesman-R Review said:
This forbearance suggests kind
heartedness on the part of the man
agement, and at first thought many
people will agree that to let the girls
&c and to conceal their names was a
nice thing to do. A little further con-
sideration of the matter should how
ever, lead to the conviction that it was
not the best course of action under
the circumstances.
1T can not be supposed that it es-
tablishes a precedent and that other
girls engaged in the same practices
will be treated with similar leniency.
And yet it will tend to give the i'm
preston that others who may be
caught stealing have a chance of es-
Gaping punishment"

THE NEWSPAPER.

Newspaper! who has never felt the
pleasure that it brings?
It always tells us Of so many strange
and wondrous things!
It makes us weep at tales Of woe
it fills our hearts with mirth-
It tells us of the price Of stock-how
much produce is worth
And when, and where, and how, and
why, strange things occur on
earth.
Has wars loud clarion call'd to arms?
has lightning struck a tree?
Has Jenins broke his leg?-or has
there been a storm at sea p
Has the sea-serpent shown his head?
"a comets tail been seen?
Or has some heiress with her groom
run off to Gretna Green?-
All this. and many wonders more, you
from this sheet may CLEAN.

PREPARE FOR INSPECTION.

An earnest effort is being made to
improve the dairies of the state. At
this time most of the work being done
is in the vicinity of Portland. But
within a short time the other dairies
of the state are to be inspected un-
der the direction of the state board
of health.
Now is a good time for the dairles
supplying Pendleton and other towns
of eastern Oregon to get ready for in
spection. Dairymen who clean up
now will score well when their estab-
lishments are inspected; those who
refuse to clean up may receive some
very unfavorable advertising when the
inspector comes around.
The Oregon Journal, which has
led the milk crusade in Portland,
has published the following simple
suggestions upon this subject:
"To make sure milk will pass the
meteorological test, boil utensils keep
barn clean, screen milkhouse and cool
ing room, both of which must be 100
feet from the barn. Be sure your
water supply is pure. Keep the barn
clean.
Don't use the milk from a sick
cow, or one whose udder is affected.
'Use plenty of whitewash on the in
terror of the barn. Lime inside is
more valuable than paint outside and
costs less. Haul manure away fire.
quently to a safe distance.
"Help the clean milk campaign,
help the dairy industry by helping
yourself, by obeying the law. Post
regulations up where you will read
them often"
These are very reasonable sugges-
tons and they should be needed. In
addition il may be suggested that the
men who do the milking be required
to observe personal cleanliness. Their
hands should be clean and their
clothing likewise. No good house
hold will tolerate a cook whose cloth
ing is covered with barnyard filth. 1t
is Just as essential that the dairyman
be clean. @,s
Of course it has been the custom
to pay little attention to these points.
But that does not change the issue in
the least 1t is positively known that
considerable illness, and especially
among infants, may be traced to poor
milk. SO steps must be taken to in
sure clean and wholesome milk. In
this movement the dairymen should
lead. Those who have good business
sense together with proper concep-
ton of their duty to the public will
readily comply with the rules laid
down by the health officers.
