situation Is Critical.
The situation is critical, according
to Dr. Wadsworth, and the parents
of all children under quarantine are
urged to obey the instructions given
them to the letter. No children
should be allowed to play with others
outside their own family, The health
officers, each Of whom has been as
signed to certain districts, have full
authority to keep children within
their own houses and yards
The health department yesterday
telegraphed for big supply of anti
toxin. This will arrive at once and
VIII be Administered to every child
who has been exposed To the disease.
Parents who cannot afford the pre-
caution will be furnished the anti.
toxin free and it win be administered
without cost by the health depar-
ment officials.
Not only the students, but the
teachers at the north side school as
well. have been exposed to the di-
sease.
Cases Were Not Reported.
"The fact that the eases of diph-
liberia on the north side, one of which
resulted in a death last night were
not reported to us at their inception
has made It necessary to take these
precautions" said DIR. Wadsworth
yesterday. "If our instructions are
carried out by the parents of the
children affected there will be no
serious results, and the school will
be ready to open again in week.
Many Show symptoms.
when we started our examination
of tho children at the school this
we found that all but about
five pupils in each room showed
symptoms of diphtheria. Not a child
or teacher in the school escaped being
exposed to the disease. for children
from families where diphtherla has
been reported have been attending
schools daily and mingling CONSTANT |
ly with their playmates."
Several pupils at the central
school were sent home yesterday af |
ter an examination by DR.. Wads- |
" orth. Instructions were issued to |
the teachers to compel all pupils at
the high school or central school who |
live on the north side and have broth
ers or sisters who have been attending ,
the north side school, to remain at
homo under quarantine indefinitely. |
No Danger of Epidemic.
There is no danger of the disease
spreading in the other schools" said |
Or. Wadsworth. "for we have taken
every precaution to prevent this"
The condition of several children
who are down with diphtherla is
serious, and more deaths are eX-
peCted.
The north side school building will, |
Of course, be thoroughly fumigated .
before school reopens.

Delightful Surprise

Mr.. aud Mrs. Roy Wilcox were
given the surprise OF their lives last
Thursday. when Mr.. Wilcox's par
ents, Mr., aud Mrs. ], w. Wilcox OF
Beatrice Nebraska, walked in on
them unannounced. Mr.. and Mrs.
Wilcox. Sr. were here on a visit to
their children six years ago and
have not forgotten the delightful
climate they enjoyed SO much when
here, hence when the Nebraska
weather sent the thermometer soar
ing above the century mark -.
W." said; THE West for me- and
without further ado, the grip was
packed and they were on their way.
Mrs. Wilcox is a sister of Mrs.
Kate Faulkner OF ST. Johns, whom
she had not seen since they were
children IS years ago. II is need
less to say the reunion of the sisters
was a joyous one. T.. Il. Wilcox
of Vancouver. is also a son of Mr.,
and Mrs. Wilcox who have planned
a three months visit with their rel.
atives here, but the relatives are
planning to keep them here perma-
nently If possible.

presume that l.. Seybold, who has

OH both sides. The engineer ant

they were not acting in good faith
and the property owners looked up
on their silence with suspicion and
mistrust. II Is said that some oI
the reports concerning the pool
sewer were circulated by individu'
ais who had been discharged by
Mr.. Seybold for incompetency and
slipshod work. The report has
been circulated that the contractor
has cleared as high as $4,000 on
the Maple street sewer. We have
also heard that IL he will clear more
than $1,000 on the job he can con.
slider himself lucky, and that he
lost money on the Burlington street
sewer. The great trouble has been
that very few OF our citizens know
anything about sewer, and
as the trenches were so deep that
they did not care to go down and
investigate closely, they relied too
much upon hearsay. Then the ir.

To our mind one of the best acts
ever executed by Our city fathers
was the adoption of the resolution
presented by Mayor Couch deeming
1t an unfriendly act to the city when
contractors hired Asiatic or South
ern European laborers and failed to
give local labor the preference on
all public work. In Spokane this
method has been in vogue for some
time, with most pleasing results
Outside labor is employed only
when local labor cannot be secured
and men with families are given
the preference. Acts like those do
more toward building up city than
any others. When a city shows a
disposition to aid aud succor its To-
cal laborers II becomes more attrac-
tive to the laboring class, and is a
greater inducement for them TO en-
deavor to secure homes for them
selves In city where II Is not nee
essary to compete with foreign la
Dor. The objection has been raised
that other cities might adopt the
same method. II is right that they
should. All public work which To-
cal laborers help to pay for should
be done by local laborers whenever
possible. Few, indeed, are the ST.
Johns laborers employed on Port.
land street work. Foreign labor
predominates there-a condition we
want to prevent here.

White Salmon Road to Cost $4,000.

The proposed electric railway from
THE S. p. & S. railway to the town of
White Salmon will cost approximately
$50, ,0OO according to the estimate fur
nished by George A. Kyle, engineer,
who has completed the preliminary
survey. The rolling stock, a 25 ton
motor of 800 horsepower, to haul 60
ton loaded car, and rs horsepower
passenger motor, will cost $4,000
more. The distance covered by the
road is 2,l6 miles up a grade verging
40 per cent. 1t is estimted that this
short line could at the present time
make showing that would total
$40, 200 gross earnings annually. If
the people Of White Salmon will take
stock to the amount of $40, 900 the Mt.
Adams Electric line, local corpora

and begin to build the road at once

BruShland Not Be Burned After June |.

The following is a digest of the
clauses of the Oregon Forest Fire Law
pertaining to time during which burn
lngs may be made:
Burning Of slashing, chopping, wood
land or brushland is unlawful between
June and October |, without written
or printed permission from a fire war
den and strict compliance with terms
OF the permit which shall give condi-
tlons to be observed. This restriction
does not apply to burning of log piles,
stumps or brush heaps in small guam
titles, under ample precaution and per-
sonal control, and in accordance with
any regulations of the State Board of
Forestry, If any burning without per-
mission results in the escape of fire
or injury to another, such escape and
injury shall be proof that the burning
was violation of the law. Violations
of this provision are punishable by $25
to $500 fines or ten days to three
months Imprisonment.
Any fire warden may revoke or post
pone permits when necessary to pre-
vent danger to life and property. Any
permit obtained through wilful misrep-
reservations is invalid and no defense
from penalties of the law. In times
and localities of unusual fire danger
the governor, with the advice of the
state forester, may suspend all permits
and privileges.
