KULA PIPE LINE IS A SUCCESS

That the new Kula Pipe fine in Maui
is now delivering water to nearly it's
full capacity for it's entire length, of
upwards of thirty miles. The first
half of the first four miles of the wood
en- stave pipe, which leaked to a great
er or less extent all along its length,
has been repaired and is now holding
the full head of water with any leaks,
and the Kahului Railway Company has
several men at work on the lower half
of the line and will have this portion
repaired within few weeks.

After many years OF patient, for
bearing suffering, Mrs. Mary Ann
Thomas departed this life at her
home in Heppner at 4 o'clock Mon
day morning. Mrs. Thomas had
been an invalid. and confined to her
home for several years, and for the
past three years, at least, scarcely
able to get out OF the house. Her
affiiction was very severe and caus-
ed great bodily suffering, and during
much OF this time she had the care
OF an invalid mother and daughter.
She had in reality given up her life
in the care OF members of her family
and the burdens were heavy, yet
through it all she was cheerful,
bright and hopeful, seemingly for
getting at all times her own afflic-
tion in caring for others.
Mrs. Thomas was a woman also
OF culture and refinement, and a
great reader OF good books, being
particularly fond of historical works,
and in her conversation manifested
her splendid knowledge OF many
other countries besides our own.
Funeral services were conducted at
the family residence on Tuesday
afternoon, by Rev. E. P. Warren, and
was largely attended by friends and
neighbors, and her remains laid to
rest in the Heppner cemetery.
Mary Ann Thomas was born at
Scio, New York, on December 4, 1887
and at the time of her death was 73
years, months and 3 days of age.
Her parents were Loren and Maria
Teresa Slocum and she was the old
est OF family OF thirteen children
She was married to Edwin Thomas
at Hales Eddy, New York, on Jan.
], 1856. and to this union five children
We're born, Jessie, Charles, Carrie
Eveline, Floyd G. and Winnifred,
only the last two named now living.
While her last child was an infant in
arms, her husband was killed by
falling from building on which he
was working and she was left a
widow to care for her family.
Mrs. Thomas came to Heppner in
1890, and took up her home mere with
ler mother and brother E. II. Slocum
md resided in this community con-
-inuously.until the time OF her death.

The closing hours of the Idaho
state senate were enlivened by very
spirited discussion over the general
appropriation bill. 1t grew so in
teresting that hot words of a person
al nature passed between two of the
honorable gentlemen, and hot words
led to blows, and the final result was
n rough and tumble fisticuff between
them in which blood flowed freely
and blackened eyes, smashed noses
and bruised cheeks adorned the coun-
tenances of the contestants. We do
not know which side won out in the
final vote on the appropriations, but
we do know that the dignity of the
honorable body to which they be-
longed was trampled upon by their
british conduct aud that the good
people of great state are humiliated
in the eyes of the country Their
constituents have doubtless discov-
cred their mistake in calling these
doughty contestants to prominent
seats in the chief council OF the state
and will urgently insist that hereafter
they remain ut home.

TIE REFERENDUM

Our state legislature is no sooner
adjourned than the long suffering
popuIace OF Oregon is threatened
with another acute attack OF refer
endumitis. This time it is in the in
tereSt of the mossback contingent
that can see no necessity OF spending
money to build up institutions Of
higher education. The idea of max
ing liberal appropriations for the
benefit of future generations is an ex-
travagance that appeals nightly to
their frugal habits and arouses all
the latent fires OF their souls in op-
position to such an unwarranted use
of the dear peoples" hard earned
money. Hence the referendum must
be invoked toforever stop this whole
sale plundering of the treasury and
save the state from irretrievable ruin.
We do not propose at this time to
argue the case. There may be and
doubtless are some items included in
these bills calling for the apprOpria-
tion of funds from the public treasury
that could well be dispensed with,
but speaking in general terms every
dollar invested in our state educa-
tional institutions is an investment
that will go on bearing interest in
an ever increasing ratio, when the
names OF these relicts of the 'pod
anger" age who oppose such action
shall have been swallowed up in
oblivion.

the Hartman lines will make special
efforts to aid the farmers in that
region in the development of the in
