VERDICT IS
SET ASIDE

Denver June 2S.-Eighteen hun
dred dollars is too much TO paw for
pinto Eonies, according to audse
Teller's ruling in setting aside a
verdict given by a jury against The
Denver & Rio Grande Railroad com
gany. A. II. Langman sued the
COMPANY for s2.56O for failing prop
crly to feed and water 81 Indian pin
to ponies shipped from Price, Utah,
TO GranG Island, Neb. Langmap
bought the ponies from Indians and
shipped them for speculation. He
testified that when they reached DEN
yer they were deprecated in value
by neglect and he refused to accept
them
The jury gave Langman a verdict
for Sl.S00. The railroad company
claimed that the value should have
been fixed where the ponies were
purchased, and Langman claimed
that the value should have been
fixed at the place of their destina-
liCn. The jury appeared to have
iNed the value at Denver. Judge
Teilel thinks the value should have
been given at all of the places and
then let the jury fix the value from
these different valuations.

The PASSING
OF ROMANCE

Click, click, click,' went the
telegraph sounder and out in the
wilderness in an isolated way station
of great transcontinental railroad
sat the lonely night operator. his
ears strained to catch every dot and
dash and his eyes glued to the
spot. now nothing but blot of mur-
ky darkness, where he knew the
flashing headlight of the Overland
Limited would first meet his gaze
Around about. through the partly
opened window. the only sounds were
the dismal howlings of the coyotes
and the swishing of the wind through
the ravines. The interior of the
station was poorly illumined by the
fitful glare of smoky kerosene lamp.
1t was no easy matter to keep ones
senses alert under such conditions.
Suddenly the station call came in on
the sounder - Sg - SIX -
1t clicked. The drowsy operator sat
up with a start -"
No more will the romantic writer

continued and steady introduction of
the telephone on railroad systems for

De Things or the past within very
short time. So does the halo of ro-
nance, with which the night tele-
graph-operator of the plains and the
wilderness has been surrounded. fade
away before the remorseless advance
of the bright and more efficient light
OF modernism.
The new order of things makes
it perfectly feasible to do away with
the night operator at the isolated
way stations. A Western Electric
company railway specialist recently
mentioned the fact that one railway
system, to which he had sold tele-
phone train dispatching equipment
had done just this thing and that
each passenger and freight con-
ductor has been furnished with a
so-called master key" for the sta
tions along the line to enable him
to enter, lift the telephone receiver
from the hook, put himself in instant
communication with the train dis
patcher at headquarters, receive his
orders verbally and go on his way.
Not very romantic. but surely eco
nomical and highly efficient.

The Hospital.

The decision of Bishop c. j.
O'Reilly, of Baker City, to erect
a hospital at Heppner, means
the expenditure here within the
coming months of $40, 000.0 90 at
least in the construction of the
building and its equipment.
Citizens of Heppner and vicinity
have already subscribed nearly
$40, 10000 to the fund, and it
will doubtless be more than this
when the canvass is completed.
Our citizens entered into this
matter with a vim that is inspir-
ing, and an indication, as well, of
returning confidence. Heppner
has been considered by some to
be on the backward track, but
this is demonstration of the con-
fdence that our business COM
munity and citizens at large have
in the future of the town.
In answer to a direct question
put to him as to what amount of
funds he would put into the hos
pital in proportion to what was
raised in Heppner, Bishop O'Rei-
lily emphatically stated he would
put up four dollars to one.
While the hospital may not
prove to be asecond St. Vincents,
it will be just as good as far as it
goes, and should be the means of
drawing large amount of bus
mess to Heppner that has been
going to the city. There is a
very large territory to draw from
and proper facilities for handling
all classes and conditions of pat
tents viii give first class insti-
tuition of this kind at this point
plenty to do, and it may be but
very few years until the hospital
will have to be enlarged very
materially to care for those seek
ing its services.

BRYAN THREATENS
FIGHT OVER PLATFORM
Contest Likely When Rep
resentative on Resolutions
Committee Is Named.

Washington, June 10.--A contest is
imminent between the Bryan and anti
Bryan forces a to who shall represent
Indiana on the platform committee at
the Baltimore nationa | convention
Whether it can be settled without a
big rumpus remains to be seen, but the
present indications are that there is
likely to be strenuous time before
the dispute is adjusted.
The question at issue, which is one
of big political Importance, is whether
Indiana shall assist W. j. Bryan in his
efforts to put through an extremely
progressive platform that will reflect
Mr.. Bryan's well-known governmental
ideas and policies, or whether Indiana
will joint forces with the more con-
sentative states in adopting a short.
simple platform, without of the pro-
posed remedies that Mr.. Bryan has
been advocating every four years.
1t is said on very good authority
that Mr.. Bryan has platform already
prepared that he proposes to offer at
Baltimore: also that he will back 1t up
with a fight in the resolutions commit
tee and a speech before the convention.
