Council Lets Contracts for Sewers and
PayementS

At a meeting of the city council in
executive session, to consider bids for
pavements and sewers, contracts were
awarded to the Warren Construction
Company, which will mean an expen-
diture Of $18O,890.40 for civic i'm
provements and will give the city
about 90 blocks paved with the cele-
brated bitulithic pavement, says the
Tillamook Herald. Work will have to
commence three days after the con-
tract is signed, but it is the intention
OF the Warren Construction Company
to push the work as rapidly as possible,
as the street pavement cannot be done
after the rainy season sets in.
This contract was let after careful
investigation of the merits of other
paving, and was awarded for bitulithic
because of its proven worth and be-
cause it has withstood every test of
time and traffic under all climatic con-
ditions.

FRIDAY. JUNE IL, 1912
viii the Convention in Chicago Result
In A New Party!

1t looks that way. The Taft forces
are bent on rule or ruin. They know
that it is utterly impossible for Roose-
velt's followers to acquiesce in Taft's
nomination. 1t would be admitting
before the American people the right
of the committee bosses to name a
candidate for president against the ex-
pressed wishes of a great majority OF
the voters. 1t would establish pre-
cedent with the force and effect OF
party law. Those who have contended
that the national committee is guilty
of great wrong can not reverse them
selves by aiding in the nomination and
election of Mr.. Taft.

Within the next week or ten days
we will mail subscription statements to
our subscribers who are in arrears. A
single subscription is small amount
in itself but when there are several
hundred of them you can figure what
the sum is to newspaper in the ag-
gregate. Since a weekly newspaper is
compelled by law to discontinue send
ing the paper to a subscriber who is
one year behind we have adopted the
method of sending out statements so
that those who desire The Echo may
not miss a copy because we are trying
to obey the law. Statements will be
mailed to all who are three months be-
hind to give ample time to renew.
To those only of our subscribers who
reside in the county is The Echo sent
after the paid for subscription expires.
In this case permit US to invoke the
aid OF the Golden Rule, las ye would
that others should do unto you, do ye
even so unto them"

A. j. Hill, general western agent,
located at Portland, Oregon, of the
Warren Brothers Paving Co., OF Bos-
ton, Mass, drove up from Wenatchee
yesterday afternoon in an auto. He
says he saw one of the most marvellous
sights in the way of orchards in COM
ing thru the Wenatchee valley that he
has ever seen. This, coming from an
Oregon man, where they pride them
selves on fruit growing, is more flat
tering expression than we dared hope
to hear from a citizen of the Webfoot
state. He was accompanied on his
trip thru eastern Washington by Mr..
McCollum, who boosts bitulithic paw
ing in these parts. Not only boosts it
but rubs his rabbits foot on the prop
erty holders in such a way that he Sc
cures the adoption Of his paving by

make an effort to keep up with the
spirit of the times by paving their
business streets, among which Leaven-
worth is to be numbered.

With that accustomed mendacity
which has made him infamous ever
since he accused Mayor Carlquist, Coun-
cilmen Weigand, Hamilton and Banker
Field with trying to steal five thousand
dollars from the people of Leavenworth,
and afterwards admitting to K. K. Bow
sher that the charge was untrue, but
that he made it for the purpose OF de-
feating the water bond election, boast
ing that it had accomplished its pur-
pose-we repeat, in that same spirit
of mendacity he said yesterday that
Deed H. Magyar declined to respond
to requests of councilmen for state
ment. Some thirty spectators, beside
the councilmen and mayor heard Mr.
Magyar respectfully say that he would
be pleased to make statement If the
council thought statement from him
was necessary. Is Mr.. Corcoran so
lost to a sense of his reputation for
truthfulness that he will in the face OF
thirty men stand up and tell willful,
deliberate and malicious falsehood?
Evidently he does not know the odium
that attaches to continued, willful, de-
liberate lying. So low is his reputation
in this town that no one could be
found who would testify that what j.
w. Corcoran would say about man
would injure his reputation. This is
the man who says D. H. Magyar re-
fused Tuesday night to make state
ment. Mr.. Corcoran, twenty-five men
are ready'to testify you are only lying.
In this community Corcoran is syno-
nym for lying. To tell man he cor
coraned is to tell him he has lied.

TIL. EXPRESS MONOPOLY

II is matter beyond contradic-
tion that, beginning go years ago
practically with no assets whatever
other than favorable contracts wi h
one or more railroads, the express
companies have. out of their rates
and the profitable investment Of the
proceeds of their operations, been
enabled TO pay large dividends VI on
s1ares representing no investment,
and amassed over $50 million dollars
of property.
The statement here quoted is FROM
the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion's report on the express compa-
mics. The report shows that total
dividend payments have amounted
b 2l2 million dollars.
The facts set forth throw newt
light on the method of accumulate
ing great fortunes in this country
at the expense Of the public. The|
express business has been farmed'
out by the railroads to men who.
tarough issues of stocks and bonds
for which no consideration was CIV
en-, have been able to accumulate
unearned wealth and obtain divi-
dends and interest because of excess
sive charges for services performed.
Express companies have been
among the most insolent of all cor
p)rations that serve the public They
have now come under the jurisdic-
tion of the Interstate Commerce
. commission, which has ordered rad
zeal changes in their methods.

TO ALLAY EYE IRRITATION
Simple Wash Made From Saturated
Solution Of 8oracic Acid Is
Very Soothing.

When one is forced to work under
Il light that is placed too high for
eye comfort and cannot be readily ad,
justed It is far better to use an opaque
green shade over the eyes than to al
low the sight to become permanently
injured
A good quality of these can be pur-
chased at your stationer's for the
modest sum of a quarter and the re-
lief you will find In them will be
more than worth the small expense
Should the eyes become irritated
near the eyelash use a wash OF luke
warm sterilized water having diluted
therein as much boraic acid as the
water will take up.
One can prepare pint bottle OF
this and have II ready for use at any
time. The only thing necessary would
be to place the bottle In cup of
warm water so as 20 make IL luke
warm before using.
Should white sediment form at
the bottom Is by no means spoiled
as this is only a very small extra
quantity OF the boracic asid which
has been absorbed by the water and
is in no way harmful
More than certain quantity, say a
heaped teaspooniul TO a pint of wa
ter. will not be absorbed so there is
no fear Of making the water too soft,
as only a certain degree can be
achieved in this direction
Use of this when the lids become
irritated. applying with well-cleaned
eyecup. will save you from many
painful and patience trying stye. an
abscess OF the eyelid that is most
and which make their
appearance at the most inopportune
times.

THE TICKET.

The ticket nominated by the Re
publicans of Canyon county could
not welt be improved upon. 1t is
good from top TO bottom, Natur-
ally. Emmett would have preferred
ID. Nj. John as legislative candidate
TO some one from another part of the
county, but that will not lessen in
any degree their support Of the tick
e.. Mr., Johns defeat may with
right be laid at the door of Emmett
people themselves. They were neg
ligent in not turning out to vote.
One hundred m re votes at home
would have made his nomination
certain.
The legislative nominees are
strong men. Two of tn m are far
mers and were backed by the Grange
and two are residents Of this valley
The delegation will undoubtedly
prove TO be force in the next ses-
sion Of the legislature.
The nominees for county commits
sioner, II. A. Partridge, w, b.
Mitchell and +. A. Blair are shrewd |
business men, men who have extern
sive property interests in the coun-
~ and who are therefore as vitaly
Interested in an economical business
administration of county affairs as
any other resident.
The other nominees are well
known. With but two exceptions
they are all seeking reelection. and
their record has been one of etlicien-
cy and fdithfulness.
As we said at the beginning. the
ticket from top TO bottom is one
hat could not well be improved up
IN and one that should and undoubt-
IDLY will command the support of !
