Following the discovery of sixty
cases of diphtheria in the east side
district the Board of Health ordered
closed schools. churches halls, NOV
ing picture theatres and all other
places where persons gather Even
the public library was ordered to
close it's doors.
Everywhere the yellow flag is wav-
ing and the hammers of board of
health inspectors as tey tack up quar-
antine notices on the doors of houses
into which the disease has penetrated
have been resounding all day.
| Every available policeman was
pressed into service by order of Mayor
Ellis, and blueeoats everywhere patrol
the streets to see that the quarantine
laws are fully carried out.
| The officers are greatly troubled
| keeping indoors the vast hordes OF
children, who. seeing nothing more
than welcome vacation in the en-
forced closing of the schools, are
swarming the streets, carrying the
! dread disease germs into districts that
are as yet unaffected.
| 1t is even possible that the mayor
will order closed the large stores in
| the downtown section of the city.
The fact that they were supposed
| to stay close indoors acted dis
astrously on those who intended to
vote today. Earlyapolling today, with
the added hindrance of threatening
weather, was the lightest in years
The epidemic first showed itself
! last Thursday when Coroner Bentley
was called to give a certificate OF
| death for Grace Standback, 4-year-
| old girl, who had died after four
| DAYS illness. Examination showed
! that the child's death had been
caused by diptheria, and the coroner
| learned that she had been i'll for foui
aavs withd0f r.etsesl attention.
Fouf other children in this family
we're permitted to run, about while
| Grace was sick, and tie authorities
believe that the epidemic was started
in this manner.
| More than twenty cases OF dlphthe-
ria were discovered at the end OF
last week in the investigation when
| the health department started aftef
| the coroner had reported the death
of the little Standbacl< girl. ano
since then the disease has been max
ing great inroads.
There are more than 5000 persons
! living in the district affected, whicf
is the most congested section of thu
city. Heroic methods of disinfect
| ing and fumigation are being uset
by the health authorities in thei
| efforts to check the ravages of thu
! disease.
The Garfield and Dudley schools
the two largest in the city, were or
dered closed yesterday, and today tn
embargo was placed on the re
mainder of the city schools and pub

MAYOR GETS DATA
ON STREET PAVING
Queries Regarding Proposed Material
Answered by Officials of Other
Towns

Mayor w. F. Matlock is trying to
solve the paving question here in Pen
dleton, says the East Oregonian,"
and to-day received messages relating
to the price Of gravel bitulithic and
the merits of the Dollarway pavement.
The first received is from A. ]. Saw
er, mayor of Ann Arbor, Mich, and
reads as follows:
In my opinion Dollarway, while
cheap in first instance, maintenance in
city must be very expensive. The BIZ
luminous top needs constant repair.
Comes off in large patches and is not
permanent. Washtenaw avenue pave
ment put down eight months ago is
being repaired in places"
"The second is from R. S. Dulin,
one of the Portland city chemists. 1t
reads as follows:
There has been no concrete pave
ment coated with coal tar or bitumen
laid in Portland from my laboratory
tests. I have concluded that this type
OF pavement is yet in experimental
stage, and reports from the eastern en-
gineers strengthen my opinion that it
is not permanent pavement.
The third is from c. H. P. Babcock,
first assistant engineer of Buffalo, New
York, and is as follows:
we have had no actual experience
with Dollarway roads. Might be will
ing to use it in some outlying streets
for temporary purpose. Should be
considered in class which name i'm
plies, dollarway. Permanently Of coat
ing depends upon quality of bitumen
used as we'll as upon methods OF ap-
plication. Thin coat should not be
expected to last long.
