EYES AND THE VOICE.

A physician in London. DR.. William
Martin Richards, has had occasion
to observe a relation existing between
the eyes and the voice and has recent
" made a statement Of two cases that
came under his treatment where ac-
tresses who had lost their voices COM
pletely recovered them when treated
for defective eyes and fitted with
proper glasses.
He tells Of n young woman in
whose family eye diseases were here
ditary who found herself at the age
of 22 losing her voice. Her eyes were
found to be in need Of attention and
when she had been supplied with
glasses she promptly recovered her
singing voice.
When she discarded the glasses
some time later and her eyes were
once more neglected her voice also
relapsed into a husky state that pre-
cIuded all singing. This practitioner
has observed a number of similar
cases, and the discovery of the rela-
ton between the eyes and the voice
should certainly be valuable to stage
folk and others who depend largely
upon their voices for their status in
the world.

Senator Bailey, reputed democrats
leader in the senate. offering to re-
sign because his colleagues voted to
admit Arizona to the union after It
had adopted a constitution containing
the initiative and referendum. Bailey
is q reactionary democrat, He has
long been classed as one who stood
with the interests. He is no reformer.
He does not even disapprove of legis-
lative bribery for he fought hard to
keep the senate from ousting Lorimer.
Bailey declares the initiative and re-
ferendum a populistic vagary. Yet
state after state is following Oregon
in the adoption of the same and the
progressives, of both parties, are
making the initiative and referendum
the chief plank in their platform. 1t
is recognized hat the initiative and
referendum affords a way by which
popular government may be restored
in states that have become machine
No state can we'll secure a
thorough direct primary law until 1t
first gets the initiative. There is
nothing IN the initiative and referen-
dunn to conflict with the principles OF
the democratic party. on the con-
trary the initiative and referendum is
the very essence of democracy.
Bailey's behavior shows that the
are sadly divided and that a political
realignment cannot be far distant.

.'THE MOST REMARKABLE
WOMAN IN AMERICA

In connection with automobile tour
ing, Mrs. Harriet Clark Fisher stands
foremost. This lady Of wealth, whom
WI Ting Fang designated as "the
most remarkable woman in America"
Is best known by reason of her recent
round-the-world tour. This trip,
which was accomplished In an Amer
ican-made automobile, a ~Locomobile,
of forty horsepower, Is still fresh in
the minds of motordom and the pub
lie at large. 1t is all the more re-
markable when it is known that she
traversed thousands of miles Of noun
tains and plains where Automobiles
had never dared venture. Without
maps or other data to assist her, she
accomplished the almost impossible.
She vas warned that certain roads
were impossible, particularly be-
tween Bombay and Calcutta, a route
she was the first to take and accom-
plish on this tour, Mrs. Fisher, to
use her own words, was striving to
kill care rather than derive actual en-
joymeut."-Raymond F. Barnes, in

COULD NOT WRITE NAME
BUT MADE A MILLION

A will signed only with an X, be-
cause its author was unable to read
or write, has just been probated at
Mineola, L. l., and disposes of an es-
tate valued at nearly a million dol
lars accumulated by the late John
Lahey.
Lahey came to America in 1866
and obtained employment in Brook
Ign, working as a common laborer at
a dollar a day. He saved every cent
possible and invested in New York
real estate. Despite his i%lliteracy, he
possessed shrewdi judgment of land
values and his Investments rapidly in
creased in value. He often declared
that he did business only with honest
people, and hat it made no differ
ence whether he had education OF
not. The estate is divided among his
nine children.

AN IMPROVEMENT.

There is evidence to the effect that
the county court is striving to give
better supervision to Dad work of the
county and to insure taxpayers some
thing like proper results for the mon
ey expended. Though the commits
sioners refused 10 give up the plan of
supervising the road work themselves
there are reasons for believeing that
the supervision hat is to be given
may be somewhat better than that ac-
corded when that policy was in use
several years ago.
Then the court has decided to en-
ter upon a policy of permanent road
building. Each year the court will
&c as much macadam work as possible
so as to gradually provide permanent
highways for the county. Certainly
this is a step in the right direction. If
the court adheres to this policy it will
lot be many years until Umatilla
county will have some good roads all
the year round. If the court will but
put into permanent roadbuilding the
money which in the past has been
wasted through i'll timed or misman-
aged work on the dirt roads marvel
Gus results may be obtained.
AS to why the commissioners re-
fused to adopt Judge Maloney's plan
for having work supervised by dist
riot roadmasters rather than by men,
bers Of the court this paper is at a
loss to understand. It was a far bet
ter plan han the one that will be
followed. The plan of having the
work done personally by members of
the court was tried before and 1t led
to much complaint. Charges of ex-
~travagance and graft were freely made.
II is a plan that naturally leads to
suspicion.
How well the plan will work under
the present court remains to be seen.
II may be that the members Of the
court intend to pursue a different
course with reference to their super
visory work. They may not intend
70 do all their supervising from o. r.
& y. passenger coaches. It is to be
hoped SO anyway. 1t is also to be
hoped that henceforth when the
county does road work at Fulton men
and teams wont be sen put from PEN
dleton to do that work and be allow
ed pay for the time enroute. The
county can afford to pay for road
work but cannot afford to pay peo-
pie for making an eight mile trip and
return each day for three weeks.
It is evident hat the publicity this
paper has given to county road az
fairs during the past week or two has
accomplished some good. Publicity
usually brings wholesome results.
Meanwhile. II farmers, businessmen or
other taxpayers have anything further
TO offer upon this subject the East
Oregonian will be glad to publish their
views.

ENFORCE THE LAW.

In putting the lid upon those who
would hold prizefights in this city the
authorities are taking the only course
open to them. There is a state law
against prize fighting and it is the
duty of the sheriff and of the district
attorney to enforce that law. 1t is
also the duty of the city, through its
police department. to cooperate in
the enforcement of the law. That the
city is ready to do its part in this work
is evident by the vigorous orders CIV
en- by Mayor Murphy Saturday.
Pendleton is tired of pugilism and
especially of the sort it has been hav-
ing and will welcome the lid.

MARRIAGE IN HIGH LIFE.

The Reid family has taken such
strong root in London, whence all the

cred a new form of International al

Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1911-06-09

Spartanburg, June 5: The commits
sion appointed by Judge John S. Will
son to inquire into the sanity of Joe
Bates, slayer of his one time mistress,
Docia Boiter, reported to Judge R. c..
Watts, upon the convening of general
sessions court this morning, that they
had examined Bates and found that
while he was of a low order of intelli-
gence he was responsible for his crime.
On motion of Solicitor j. c. Otis, Judge
Watts then fixed Friday, July 21, as
the new date for the hanging of Bates.
The prisoner was present, but said
nothing. The reading of the report
of the commission, which consisted OF
DR.. ]. w. Babcock, head of the state
insane asylum at Columbia, DR.. l.. j.
Blake and DR.. l.. M. Dorsev Of Spar
tanburg, was one of the first things
brought up after court opened. The
report follows: I'VE beg to report
that we have examined the prisoner,
]. B. Bates, as directed by the court.
We find from his history and from his
present condition that he is probably
of a low order of intellect He does
not present the symptoms of any mem
tai disease with which we are famil-
lar. The intelligence shown in an
swer to our questions was inconsist-
ent with the evidence presented by the
surroundings in his cell, indicating
daily interest in current events. From
our examination and the evidence in
hand we are not prepared to say that
he is insane"
