Twenty.three on Black List.

There are twenty-three men In Pen
dleton and Umatilla county who will
be given the % sign when they enter
local saloons and ask for a drink to
quench their thirst. The city authori-
ties have prepared a black list upon
which the names of habitual drunk
ards have been written and the sa-
loonkeepers are forbidden to sell Ii
quor to these men under penalty of
having their licenses revoked. One
of the men placed under the ban. a
we'll known farmer, received a rude
shock yesterday when after Inviting
a number of men to line up at the
| bar with him, was Informed that his
name was on the black list. With
these men it is now a case of Lii
quor, liquor, everywhere, nor any
drop to drink" and the city to them
must be as dry as the great Sahara.

Got a Free Bed, Anyway.

Thomas Roger, like the average
American citizen, likes to stretch his
manly form upon a bed when night
falls and sink into the arms of Nor
pheus with the assurance of comfort
which a $40 Ostermoor gives. Some
times he is without sufficient coin of
the realm wherewith to purchase a
luxurious slumber, but, be 1t known,
Royer is a very wide awake man
when he is not asleep and he knows
full we'll that there is more than one
way to get over a fence. Last night
he rolled into Pendleton, perhaps on
a freight train, perhaps not, but his
pockets were as free from cash as is
a monks head from hair. His eyes
were heavy and his tired frame long
ed for a downy couch, therefore It
was with a glad light in his optics
| that he saw a back entrance to the
| Bowman hotel. With all the stealth
of a burglar he entered and climbed
the stairs in search of that most pre-
cious of all blessings, sleep. He
found and empty roo and was soon
transported into the land Of sweet
dreams. Alas for the sad awakening!
Whether his snores attracted atten-
ton or not, he was discovered and
forced by a blutcoated officer to
change his place of lodging to h cit!
Jail. This morning he pleaded no
guilty to the charge Of disorder,
conduct and will be forced to defend
his actions in police court this after
noon.

Two Criminals Arraigned.

Frank Weber, the man who passed
the bad check on Tom Sweringen,.
has ben arraigned in the justice court
and bound over under $3.50 bonds
which he was unable to furnish.
From statements made by Weber, the
supposition is hat he did not know
that forgery was a felony in Oregon
but he states that he intended to wire
the sum of the check to the bank
from North Vagina. Frank Hurlburt,
who stole a pony from a Echo hitch
ing rack, was placed under $500
bonds.

Writes on Sabbath Observance

Rock Island, ILL.,, April 21.-Editor
The Argus: Kindly permit me to ad-
dress a few words TO the readers Of
The Argus on a subject which is
very near my heart, and which, l am
sure. is one that affects the welfare
OF this community.
An old fable says that there was
once a man who had goose which
laid a golden egg every day. By and
by he became more and more greedy.
and, wishing to get at once at the
source of all the gold, he killed the
goose. When he opened the body he
found nothing.
AS a community we are all looking
out for the best interests of our city.
We want to have a fiourishing, pros
porous class of citizens. Our business
houses want q steady stream of GUS
toners, our corporations want a divi-
dend- paying business. So long as we
have a law-abiding, God-fearing citi
denry, these conditions will follow. So
long as business interests do not be
come so greedy as to debauch the PEG
PIE lot gam lHeS may CApCCb q SiSduy
business. But there is such a thing
as killing the goose that lays the gold
en- egg. With many six days OF bust
ness are no longer enough. Even
now plans are being laid to take away
the weekly day OF rest and spiritual
renewal from the laboring classes and
TO turn 1t into a day of debauchery
Under the pretext of furnishing recre-
alton, otherwise lawabiding corpora
TORS are planning all kinds OF Sunday
park attractions, excursions on rail
and boat. baseball, etc The real OBJ
ject of these ''Tecreations" is TO get
The working mans dollars
Just as the saloon and the theatre

Sunday law to get better chance at
the working mans purse on that day
when he has more time to spend his
money On that which does not feed
him or make him better, so other bust
ness interests are trying the same
