pronounced a complete success.
In fact many localities are using
the oil for surfacing streets and
roads andit is no longer an eX-
pertinent. Heppner has spent a
lot of money on street sprinkling
and the question of sufficient
water for this purpose has been a
perplexing one many a season.
When the streets are once brou-
ght under subsection by the oil
ing process, the dust question is
settled and sprinkling troubles
are at an end. There can surely
be no opposition to this plan.

At the council meeting on
Monday evening conditional
order was given to Beall & Co.,
of Portland, for an oil sprinkler
to be used on the streets of Hepp-
ner. If it is found at the end of
thirty days that it is the desire of
the majority of the business men
of the town that the machine be
purchased, the order will stand
and the sprinkler will be Install
ed. There has been much dis
cussion of this street oiling prop
osition for a year or two past,
and it has also been figured out
that the oiling should be done at
around the same figure that is
paid out each year for street
sprinkling, and if this is so, there
is no good reason for not taking
this method of keeping down the
dust. With the methods now
used in spreading the oil it is

The June, 1918, issue of the
Quarterly of the Oregon Histori-
cal Society has been received at
this office. 1t is a publication of
great value, indeed. The num-
Der is inscribed to the memory of
Harvey w. Scott, editor, pioneer,
scholar, commonwealth builder,
exponent of national authority,
leader of thought in the forma-
tion of the Oregon country, and
distinguished figure in American
journalism. His breadth and re-
source of mind, his grasp of abb
ding principles, his teachings of
sturdy moralities, his powers of
exposition, made him widely ad-
mired. His life labor as helper
of men in the Pacific West made
him widely beloved. The review
is by Alfred Holman, editor of
the San Francisco Argonaut, and
covers the half-century career of
Mr.. Scott as editor of the Ore
gonian.

Freezing to death is preceded by
drowsiness, which makes the end
painless, the body actually feeling
warm and going comfortably to
sleep. Experiments have been made
with animals to show just how
freezing to death proceeds. In one
of these experiments, in which the
animal was placed in a temperature
Of from 125 to $50 below zero, the
breathing and heart beats were at
first quickened, the organic heat of
the body actually rising above nor
NAL, which is 9S,6 degrees Fahren-
heit. This showed sudden and in
tense effort on the part of the func-
tions to preserve the body's tenn
perature. Then violent heart action
gave out suddenly and death came
when the temperature of the body
dropped to u degrees Fahrenheit.

Raw Meat Eating.

In Italy the devouring of raw
meat in restaurants is now so com
mon as to be-to women, at any
rate-a public annoyance. The wait
er brings the slab of beefsteak and
exhibits it to the eyes of the man
about to lunch, who watches the
process of cutting and of sprinkling
with little oil and vinegar. Over
the dish is then poured a raw egg.
And if any traveller has too good
an appetite he can quench it by the
spectacle of the preparation and
consumption of that luncheon

to a representative in the legisla-
ture. We are tied on to Umatil-

joint district, virtually having
no representation at all so long
as a man from another county is
elected. This county can have
the joint representative if they
will only put forward the man.

Poet and Puai!ist.

In his youth the ability of Rich
ard Hengist Horne, the author Of
"Orion" and other poems, as a box
er stood him on more than one oc-
casion in good stead. During the
time he was serving in the Mexican
navy he was one night when on
shore attacked by two desperadoes,
who, armed with knives, thought to
have an easy prey. Woefully, how
ever, were they mistaken, for
Horne, seeing what they were up to,
lodged their onslaught and with a
couple of well directed blows laid
them sprawling at his feet.

CANONA BAND
Summer Concerts Delighted the PEG
pie of Canova.

Canova, Oct. 2.-The music lovers
of the vicinity of Canova have been
listening to concerts given by the Ca
nova band every Saturday night
throughout the summer. Last Satur-
day night was the last concert of the
year much to the regret of the people
in this territory. Each Saturday,
with the exception of a few stormy
nights, the streets would be crowded
with tr~adespeople coming to the band
concerts and incidentally to do their
trading. The entire main street
would be lined with cars, backed into
the curb, giving an aspect of a city,
1t was with no little hesitation that
the business men consented to the
Saturday evening concerts as it took
many of them away from their bust
ness and in many cases a clerk OIL
two would have to get off for the
evening to play with the band. II
has proven without doubt that it pays
to hold these concerts on Saturday
however, as that is the time when the
farmers can best get offsto go to towr
and it draws c%onsiderabl trade that
would otherwise go to some other
town.

FORMER RESIDENT OF MADISON
DIED AT CLARK, NEW.

Friends in the city have received
announcement of the death of w. f.
Smith, which occurred at Clark, New,
Tuesday afternoon of this week. De-
ceased was an early day resident of
Madison and may be said to have
been one of the founders of the pres
ent city, and for a number of years
was one of the foremost men of the
young and growing town. In the
early territorial days when Lake
county was being settled by home
steaders he occupied the position of
clerk of the courts under appoint
ment by Judge Kidder, presiding
judge of the southeastern portion of
the territory under federal appoint
ment. Later he engaged in the bank
ing business, being one of the incor-
p~orators of the former Citizens Ma
tional bank, of which institution he
was the president. He was always
active in the politics of the county
and state, and through this activity
he was called to the position of state
treasurer, serving one term. Finan-
cial misfortune came to him, how
ever, his bank failed and he left this
community a number of years ago.
He has been heard from at times as
engaged in the mining business in
the west, several years past being To-
Gated in Nevada.
w. f. Smith was a genial compan-
ion, enterprising and generous to a
fault. Deceased was aged about 75
years and is survived by widow and
two sons.

voted from her own common sense,
just as the Municipal league and the
City club had recommended as the
result of painstaking research. 1t re-
minded me OF what John Morley said
that the elector is not expected to
be an expert, but to express the mind
of the common people, and that the
most valuable voter is the person who
knows most about social misery and
the ways in which it can be mitigated.
Any woman who gives her best mind
to il can vote intelligently on such
questions as are placed before the
people. They are really simple ques-
tons. OF course, she must look into
the matter. To do things intelligent
ly is a sine qua non of successful
living.
Italian women came into vote who
knew much more about our city than
their husbands, who were away dig
ging railroads during six or nine
months of the year. Foreign women
often have good practical ideas. Ital-
ian woman have come to Hull House
in the past to ask for municipal wash
houses. They said, quite truly, that
the kitchen of a tiny tenement is no
place TO wash. Russian women have
come to urge us to try to get covered

lowed to be SO exposed to dust and
