ADOPT THE CHARTER,

In the present municipal campaign
the mayorality fight is occupying the
center of the stage. There are some
seven or eight men running for the
council but it is doubtful if one man
out of 10 can name them all, though
their names have all been published
This is the usual state of affairs.
Whenever there is fight over the
mayorality it generally absorbs the
public's attention and little care is
6lyen to the selection of councilmen.
As a result we do not have good
councils and more than likely the
members thereof are picked to serve
some other interest than the welfare
of the people at large.
Should the people adopt commits
sion government for Pendleton they
will then have to select but two men
instead of eight or 10. They will be
able to get better men than at pres
ent and they will be able to Judge
more accurately of their qualifica-
tions. No candidate will be able to

THE TWO MAYORS.

Through the announcement Satur-
day of their respective platforms the
two candidates for mayor have made
il known what may be expected of
must be said also that both platforms
are very pleasing in most regards.
Each candidate has given an en-
phatic pledge to stand by the present
liquor ordinance and to prohibit. any
increase in the number of local sa-
looms. This should insure a continu-
ance of the policy of strict regulation,
regardless of who is elected.
With reference TO public utility
corporations both have something to
say. Mr.. Matlock is explicit in the
declaration that if elected he will
work for cheaper electricity and for
cheaper gas and he says that should
a controversy arise between the pub
lie and public utility corporation he
will stand first, last and always, as a
champion Of the people. Mr.. Raley
confines himself to a general state
ment favOring municipal regulation
Of public service corporations and all
public utilities in all things which
VIII promote the best interests of the
city and the people.
Both candidates declare for an i'm
proved water system but do not &c
into details, Apparently they are
waiting to hear from the people as to
whether they want a gravity system
or an improved system Of some other
sort.
That they will work for civic i'm
proyement is declared by both men.
Mr. Raley says he favors constant
Development and Improvement Of
suburban streets and sidewalks while
Mr.. Matlock fayors progressive city
improvements commensurate with the
population and wealth of the city.
In announcing their positions open
y as lhey nave done both candidates
have taken the proper course and the
East Oregonian, which has been in
sistent upon such step. desires to
congratulate them upon their frank
ness with the people. This paper al
so cherishes the hope that the new
mayor, who ever it may be, will keep
sacred the promises just made. II
those promises are kept in spirit and
letter there will be an improvement
in the municipal government of the
city Of Pendleton.
As TO which OF the two men should

COMING OUR WAY.

Information received from Wash
ington by Major Swartzlander, agent
upon the reservation, shows that the
agitation for the establishment of the
reservation water rights is bringing
results. The slow moving wheels of
the government are getting into mo-
tion and good should follow. 1t seems
squarely up to Mr.. McCourt to act
and If he does his full duty he will try
to prove the reservation water rights
are appurtenant to the land 1t
would be a farce to ask for water for
such Indians only as are able to farm
their own allotments. That would be
denying the benefits of water to the
old men, the squaws and children,
who need such blessings the most.
For his good work in striving to
have the reservation rights estab-
lished local people owe much to Ma
jor Swartzlander. The agent is act
ing with view to promoting the in
terests of the Indians under his care.
He is doing his duty and his course
should be appreciated and encour-
aged by the Indians and by local
whites. His behavior is in contras,
with that of some of his predecessors
and it gives the major a rare distinc-
ton.
Fortunately the question of reser-
vation water rights is one wherein
the interests of the Indians and OF
Pendleton are one and the same 1t
will be great thing for the tribes
men to secure water for the irriga-
ton of their allotments. 1t will be
blessing to them whether they do
farming work themselves or rent
their allotments. The establishment
of reservation water rights will be "a
particularly fine thing if reservoirs
are constructed to store some of the
flood waters. Such a course would
make it possible to irrigate a large
section of the reservation and to do so
without injury to waterusers farther
down the stream.
The Importance to Pendleton of
having large irrigation district ad-
joining this city is so well known as
to need no comment here. 1t is OF
sufficient Importance that local peo-
PIE should bring into play every pos
sible influence that can help towards
securing full and speedy establish
ment of the Indian water rights.

HOW TO TREAT
OLD SORES

The proper woy-the only sue
cessful gay-t to treat an old sore
is to destroy its source. Not by
dangerous surgical operations or
irritating, "drawing" plasters, but
by Natures true method of purify
ing the blood and filling the circu-
lation with rich, nourishing proper
ties; then the cure will be natural
and lasting. We can easily UNDER
stand how impurities in the blood
will infect some weak point on our
bodies, and by continually dis
charging impurities into it keep the
place open and inaamed until a
chronic ulcer is formed. Nothing
then is so sure to produce a cure
of these old sores as S. SIS. This
medicine is Natures perfect blood
remedy, composed of the most heal
ing and at the same time the most
penetrating and blood-puriIing
properties. 1t remoues every par
ticle of impurity or morbid matter
from the circulation, and assists
nature in the increasing of healthful,
nutritious corpuscles in the blood.
5: 5. s: makes pure blood, and pure
blood is Natures unfailing cure for
old sores. Every sufferer with an old
sore should use S. S. S., because it
is the remedy they most need. Book

!. X. PICTURES ARE
 UNUSUALLY GOOD

Humor and pathos were intermin- gied enough in the program of pic tures shown at the O. K. theater Sunday night and last night in just the right proportions. The program of five pictures which ranged in sub feet from a story of lost children 10 one showing a real western gun man in action was one Of the best that was ever seen in Risbee, and was enjoy cd by large audiences which filled the popular Brewery avenue show house at every performance.
 As near as it was possible to judge from the comments heard among the audience the mosti popular pie ture was the one of the lost children. This picture showed a northern win ter scene in which a small boy and his little sister 'hitche5'' on to a cutter and rode behind 1t welt In,o the country where they both fell from their sleds. Failing In an attempt 10 .overtake the cutter they discover ed that they were lost Finally the little girl overcome with the cold lies down n tho SHOW and her brother beroieaily takes of his overcoat and wraps her in it. He then is almost overcome and lies down beside her. when a friendly dog appears and watches over them until they are Hound by their parents before the cold has any serious effecHo1 them The picture which riyallet this for popularity was one of the the gen tlenan burglar" that depicted the exF,eriences of a club man who bet ssfA that he. couId enter a strange house and steal some jewels and re turn to the club in five hours.

MARKET HALTS AND
 STARTS ON DECLINE
Effective Resistance Mani tested, However, En-
 rOUraging Traders

|. NEW YORK, June 5.-After an interrupted advance during the greater part of the week. in which stocks were carried to the highest level of the year, the movement halted today. A mildly reactionary tendency developed, but the market offered srch effective resistance that losses in most cases were small.
 The manner in which some impor- tant stocks such as St Paul, Smelt- ing and Steel. declined in the early session encouraged the bear traders to join in a vigorous demonstration Selling. however, was not effective.
 Reports from the steel trade were that a definite trend toward heavier orders appeared to have set in in respo-se to a reduction of prices.
 The figures for May on western roads showed that the traffic held approximately the level of last year, while prospects of large crops prom ise a satisfactory volume of busi- ness for the coming months.

WOUNDED COW GOES
 FOR CURIOS PERSONS
Drives Passengers and Train Crew Back When Re-

A wouaded COW won the decision over the train crew and passengers Sunday morning when the train that left Bisbee for the west arrived at a cattle guard on the track near Lewis Springs. The COW had got her feet fastened in the guard and it was necessary to tear up part Of it to release her.
 The passengers, their excitement nnd curiosity aroused by the stop ping Of the train, got out and surged around the imprisoned COW. The conductor warned them to get back into the ear. as the COW might at tempt to hurt them when she go loose. but the passengers did not see it that way
 When finally the animals foot was releas she Tusbed at the as senbled bunch Of rassenRers and drove them back into the coaches. Having put the curious messengers fn their places. she returned tO the attack and drove the conductor, en- aiueer, brakeman, Fireman and Con

WILL COURT DEATH
 IN GRAND CANYON

PHOENIX. June 5.-For tha pur- pose Of taking Q series of pictures of the great canyons and zulfs through which the Colorado rive flows in it's course from Green river in Wyoming to Needles California. F. C. Kolb of Bright Angel Trail
 Grand Canyon, together with his brother. K. L. Kolb. and Reese Grif- fith of Fredouia, Arizona. will take a perilous trip of 1.f60 miles along the treacherous course of the river.
 To realize the desperate nature of the venture. it is necessary to know that since Major J. ". Powell made the first trip down the Colorado in 1886. going through fhe Grand canyon on the expedition Of exploration for the government. not more than two or three others of the scores who have yentured have succeeded. and most Of those who made the attempt were claimed by the river.
 The Kolb brothers have teen pho t0graphers in the Grand canyon for fen years past ,and have explored lt in quest of unusual pictures. Kolb discovered one of the pnost beautiful falls of the canyon, a stream of wa Ter dropping 800 feet This waterfall never appeared on the government maps and was unknown until the photographer came upon it.
 Both brothers have had wide ex- | Teriences with the river and they know much of it's dangers and how
 to overcome them. It is for that i reason that they hope their journey Uill be successful.
 We intend to give the world nov l rater passage" said Kolb,
 q have never been in the moving
 picture business and our work ct the ! eanyon has % been confined to art pictures but we plan 10 get good 1 motion pictures of this trip and show ! the people of the country the dan- | gers of the Colorado river-dangers [ they might never see in any other way. Our moving picture apparatus is being prepared in New York. ana 1 oar boats are being made there. I We expect to start on September | I. Each man will have a separate
 boat. I am having a steel boat made for myself. Long study of the i rivers whirIDooIs and rapids has taught me to avoid the use of a keeled boat We will have boats that | 1 unstable snag keel for use in dan ] gerous waters. I expect to get 1 through first and fben. take pictures 1 Of the others coming through-
 1 The trip will requires about three months for completion Our route ! takes us through the Grand canyon i snd we will be in the canyon PIT miles, ninety miles of which will be
 through the granite gorge, vhere II the walls are perpendicular. There
 are 800 rapids in the canyon
 -One of the chief dangers of oui l.trip will be the character of ths
 water. The Colorado is so full o
 sand that a man cannot swim in j for any length of time. The iengt' nf our trip and the waters to b'
 traversed include route that to my
 knowiedge has never been trav
 ersed."
