INSPECTION IS MADE
TWENTY-SI AMT AR Y
PLACES FOUND IN DALLAS.
Nuisances Must Be Abated Without
Unnecessary Delay By Connect
ing With Public Sewers.

The city authorities purpose i'm
proving the sanitary condition of Dal-
las, an undertaking that is most COM
mendable, and one that should have
the endorsement of every citizen who
appreciates the value to health of
good sanitation. AT last night IS ses-
sion of the council Alderman Young
of the Health and Police committee
reported that with four other officials
he had made thorough inspection of
the city, and had found twenty-six
nuisances that should be abated with
out unnecessary delay by connection
with the sewers. These places, he
said, are detrimental to public health,
most of them being in pretty bad
shape. The report of the committee
was accepted, and the marshal was
instructed to notify the several prop
erty owners to connect with the sew
ers, in accordance with an ordinance
covering such cases.

DEATH OF WILLIAM ROWELL.
Succumbs From Injuries Received in
Accident at Rickreall.

William Rowell, who was injured in
an accident at Rickreall about fort
night since, when the team he was
driving became unmanageable and
plunged over the enbankment of the
river near the bridge, died from the
effects thereof on Sunday last, and
the body was taken to Albany on
Monday for burial. Accompanying
the remains were several Albany Elks,
of which order the deceased was an
esteemed member, local Elks acting as
escorts from the family residence to
Derry, from which point the body
was shipped.
William Rowell came to Polk coun-
ty from Portland two years ago and
engaged in farming near Rickreall.
He formerly resided at Albany, and
there he conducted hotel for many
years, during which time he made a
large number of friends and acquain-
tances, all Of whom will learn of his
passing with profound regret. He
leaves a widow and small family, in
whose affliction the sympathy of the
community is with.

May Organize Hive.

A number of Dallas ladies have been
invited to assemble in the club room
of the library building tomorrow af-
ternoon at 2:30 to meet Mrs. Addie
L. Tillman, who expects to organize a
hive of the Lady Maccabees of the
World in this city. The invitation is
issued by Mesdames }. G. Van Orsdel,
Eugene Hayter, V. p Fiske, Hort
C. Eakin and Hugh Black, who rec
ommend the order to the Dallas ladies'
These ladies have been members of
the order for over sixteen years, and
during that time the rate of their in
surance assessments has only been
raised ten cents. They rather doubt
if any other fraternal order can beat
that record. The L. o. 7. M. is strict
ly ladies order, organized and car
ried on entirely by women.

SAWMILL RESUMES TODAY.
After Making Necessary Repairs "Old
Reliable" Is Again in Action.

The sawmill of the Willamette Val
ley Lumber company, after having
been closed down for a week, during
which time several necessary improve
ments have been made, among others
being an extension of the slab chute,
resumed operations this morning.
The machinery has also been thor
oughly overhauled and some minor
repairs made, while the machinery in
the woods has been "trimmed up"
somewhat.
Although the lumber market has
been demoralized for months past,
and is still in very unsatisfactory
condition, the plant of the Willamette
Lumber company has operated contin-
uously, giving employment to about
175 workmen in mill and woods. This
concern is Dallas most substantial
industrial institution, and one on
which it depends to a considerable
extent for its continued prosperity.
While agricultural and horticultural
products are, of course, its chief
source of revenue. the absence of this
concern would be greatly felt through
out this entire section, because it is
always ready money.

TAKES EVERY PRECAUTION TO
GUARD AGAINST FIRE.
Threatens to Have Grand Jury Invest
igate Action Of Several Dallas
Fishermen.

While on a fishing trip into the
great Siletz country the latter part of
last week. The Observer was greatly
impressed by the precautions that are
being taken against the starting of for
est fires. AT the Frank Hayden place,
about fifteen miles out of Falls City,
we found several men making it their
business to follow all travellers along
the road and warning them against
the leaving Of camp fires. Every
time a party passes this place, he is
followed by fire warden, and after
he has broken camp this warden in
vestigates to see whether or not fire
has been completely eXtinguished. Mr..
Hayden is on the road most of the
time. From the appearance of the
many thousands of acres of burned
timber in that section, it seems that
had the same precautions been taken
in the past the timber owners, as well
as the State, would have been saved
many thousands of dollars from loss
by fire.
The guarding from fire Of this won
derful stand of timber is a most
worthy thing, and should receive some
financial support from the govern
ment. AT the present time the money
necessary to pay the expenses of this
patrol is being put up by the individ-
ual owners of the timber. Though |
there are many acres still owned by
the government, the government has
not, as yet, contributed anything to-
ward the protection of this timber.
An effort is now being made to secure
financial aid from Uncle Sam for this
purpose.
A few days since several fishermen
from Dallas left fire in the woods after
breaking camp, and Mr.. Hayden
threatens to have them before the next
grand jury.

Epochs in national history have al

Epochs in national history have al
ways been marked by the appointment
of festivals and holidays. Towering
characters who have led their people
to victory, and shaped their nations
destiny have always been honored IN
the national calendar.
The senate of ancient Rome gave
the month of July its name in honor
of Julius Caesar for his eminent SER
vices as warrior, as a statesman,
and as a historian. The birth OF
Christ, and his resurrection, which so
intimately concern our moral and re-
ligious lives, have been honored with
places in the calendar as Christmas
and Easter And so in these later
times, the birth of Liberty and the
rise of Democracy will be forever re-
membered in the celebration of indie
pendence Day.
The glorious Fourth! In that day
the American heart exults. 1t marks
a new era in political history, the
eclipse of that old barbaric principle
the divine right of kings-by the en-
Gghtened principle, the divine right
of the people. On that eventful day
the American colonies emerged from
vassalage to independence and sover-
eign power. American independence
was born in the war of the Revola-
ton. Tt was decreed in the blood of
$4,000 patriots in fifty-1ive hard
fought battles, and the noble princi-
Piles in our constitution and our iiisti-
tutions were all founded in the cour-
age and wisdom of patriots and writ
ten in the blood of heroes.
The growth of Uncle Sam has as
tonished the world. Look out upon
our vast domain, so recently a savage
wilderness, crossed only by the run
ways of wild beasts, and the trails
of the rowing redmen, but today cross
ed by two hundred thousand miles
of railway. This vast region of for
est and plain, now covered with 1900
thousand miles of electric lines.
Where once was heard the cry of the
Win DedSI anu llle Wdl-WHoop VI odN-
age men, now resounds the hum and
whir of industry. Where once stood
the hovel and wigwam of the wild
man, now stand 1000 cities and vii !
lagos inhabited by an intelligent and
industrious people. Where once were
practiced the cruel orgies of the
heather, now rise 100 thousand
churches and 400 thousand schools to
light the way of truth and know
ledge.
The very air of America is pregnant
with independence and emancipation.
The poor and oppressed of the world
are focking to our shores-20 million
in seventy-fve years. Why do they
come? They come to enjoy the bless

to an old-fashioned time at the family
home north of Sheridan. The Caseys
are noted in Yamhill for their gener-
osity-also for their stature. The lat
ter attracted the attention of an OBJ
server scout, who learned that Thom-
as measures six-foot-fve; Jack mod
estly admitted that he was six-four,
and "Bill"-or William, to be pre-
cise-was six-four and a half. Joe
measures with Jack to the six-foot-
four line with the quiet assumption
that size and height did not count
for so much as quality.
Two of the boys had come down
from the camps to meet their kin for
a royal Fourth on the old homestead
of their father, Michael Casey, on
route two, Sheridan, and were met
here and accompanied to the old home
over the auto route. "Tom" insisted
that there was some class to the
i" family Of Michael" regardless of
the nationality. The boys attracted
more attention than any squad of
Grand Ronde reservation men, on ac-
count of their wonderful physique
and wholesome good nature.

| They see in American principles and
institutions the promise of the best
social and religious life. The high
privileges of American citizenship
foretell good things in store for the
oncoming millions. Consider the in
dustrial record of the nations. Rus
STA in her national period of $50
years produced by her industries three
and one-half billion dollars, Austria
in 1000 years produced two and one
half billions; Germany in HOO years
Iproduced four billions France in HOO
years produced four and one-half bill
lions; England in 800 years produced
five and one-half billions-while the
United States in 100 years of indepen-
dence produced fifteen and one-half
billions! Uncle Sam with his bumps
of genius and energy has transformed
wilderness into the garden spot of
all the earth, where the rights of life,
liberty, and the pursuits of happiness
are guaranteed to all, and a govern
ment of the people, by the people,
and for the people is assured.
The Revolution was a turning
point in world history. All great con-
flicts have had their brilliant feats of
heroism No more striking example
of patriotic devotion is to be found in
British annals, than the last speech of
Lord Chatham in Parliament, toward
the close of the Revolution. After
France had made treaty Of friend
ship and commerce with the struggling
colonies, celtain leaders in England
demanded the recognition of Ameri-
can independence. At that critical
moment Lord Chatham, pale and
emaciated, and wrapped in fannels.
entered Parliament leaning upon
crutches and supported by friends.
He was very weak but his spirit was
all ahame. As he listened to an ad-
dress his eyes flashed and his soul
burned within him at the seeming af-
front to his country Slowly rising
he said, 81 thank God I am able to
come here this day, to perform a
most solemn and sacred duty. I am
old and infrm-tottering on the verge
of the grave-but I am risen from my
bed as from the tomb in defense of
my country, perhaps never to speak
again" His great soul throbbed in
his feeble body. His lion-like courage
was fully aroused. 81 rejoice" he
said, "the grave has not yet closed
upon me, and that I live to raise my
voice against dismemberment of this

RED MAN STABS COUSIN HAYDEN IS VERY ACTIVE
NOW LANGUISHES IN POLK
COUNTY BASTILE.
Alteration Took Place on Huelet
Ranch, on Grand Ronde Road,
Near Willamina.

Sheriff Grant observed the national
holiday by taking an early morning
spin to Willamina and bringing back
a Grand Ronde Indian named Fearn,
aged about % years, accused of stab
bing Cephas Tiuton, man of about
45. They are first cousins and the
accused stabber halls from near
Drain. Oregon, while the stabbee is
one Of the residents of the reservation.
Alcohol seems to have been at the
bottom of the assault.
Judge Holman. after the Indian had
waived preliminary trial, named a
$500 bond for annearance before the
grand jury and the prisoner is be-
ing fed and bunked with the sheriff S
regulars.
1t appears that the combatants, in
company with another of the tribe,
Philip Warner, visited Willamina
Thursday night absorbing a sufficient
amount of "brick dust" to arouse
latent love of peace and good cheer
with the result that Upton has an
even break for life, according to the
opinion of Willamina physician who
the stricken man.
The fracas took place near the
Hulett farm, on the Grand Ronde
road, and the constable at Willamina
kept the assailant in custody until
the sheriff arrived. Upton, the in
iured man, occupied a place in the
county Jail some three or four years
ago, it is said, on the grounds of as

SOCIALISTS MASS CONVENTION.
Call Is Issued by Chairman for Meet
ing in Dallas on July ID.

Mr.. James X. Sears, chairman of
the Socialist organization of Polk
county, his issued a call for a meeting
of that party to be held in this city
on Wednesday, July Is, for the pur-
pose of selecting candidates for the
several county offices. In an inter
view with Mr. Sears that gentleman
said that while personally he did not
favor the selection of a county ticket
it would remain with the members of
his party to decide upon this point
He does, however, favor placing can
didates in the field for state represen-
tative and state senator, and this is
probably the action that will be taken,
although it is quite impossible to fore
cast what action may be taken.

amount Of water each person would
use in the sewer, to which charge
Mr.. Hines replied that it was simply
slip of the tongue; that he had
later given the information correctly.
Miller told the engineer that if he
were in his place, and couldn't get
along with the committee he would
walk through the door.
When questioned regarding his po-
sition, Alderman Barber said Hines
had never put his work before the
council as an engineer should, and es-
pecially was this true about plats.
He held that Hines had erred in
changing the size of sewer pipe from 20
to s inches. Mr.. Barber said the en-
gineer had made mistakes in the past
and that he did not feel that he
should be retained through the septic
tank construction period.
Mr.. Hines: els that all?"
Mr.. Barber: "Isn't that enough ?
IF I had that much against me I
would go out in a minute. "
Mr.. Hines said the whole matter
resolved itself down to one man on
account of few little mistakes. He
said further that Barber had done
no work with him.
Barber: "Why then did you want
me off the street committee ~
Hines: "That's a dead issue;
there is nothing to it. never wanted
you off"
Mayor: "Say, men, what are you
going to gain by this? This discus
sion amounts to little or nothing" "
Hines: You want to dismiss me,
and | am here to defend myself
against your charges. The informa-
ton regarding the septic tank was Of
q private nature, and not authorized
The doctor offered to pay
me for my work." And the alder
man substantiated this statement.
The roll was then called with the
result given above. Mr.. Taylor will
succeed Mr.. Hines as city
engineer.

former and the color of the latter.
1t is larger than either, and of de-
