4 NEW STEP IN
RAILWAY SANITATION

WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.-There are
many things tolerated in this world
/ only because no satisfactory remedy
has been proposed. Railroad and
steamboat officials have long been
interested in the discovery Of some
means for the sanitary disposal OF
, the sewage from trains and vessels
As handled at present this sewage
constitutes a serious menace to the
public health, since its promiscuous
discharge on the watershed crossed
by train or the fresh body of water
traversed by a steamer may SOW
broadcast the seeds of an epidemic OF
waterborne disease, such as typhoid
fever or dysentery.
Fully realizing that no improve
ment in the present situation would
be possible until some practical
measure had been suggested. the
United States public health service
has been at work for some time on
this problem A preliminary report
issued describes what is believed TO
be the most satisfactory remedy so
far proposed.
BY the installation of very simple
apparatus and the use Of the Oldest
and best known disinfectant, heat,
every railroad train and vessel can
be so equipped as to sterilize at a
very small cost its sewage, which aft
er becoming practically unobjection-
able, is automatically discharged.
Actual tests of model OF this ap-
paratus show that 1t kills 9s9 per
cent of the total number Of bacteria
in sewage. and eliminates completely
the characteristic intestinal organ
ism, bacillus coli regarded by sani-
tarians as typical of the disease-pro-
ducing germs. Such a degree of sew
age sterilization had not been attain.
ed before, and the studies. of the pub
lie health service must Therefore help

IRRIGATION CONGRESS OF
STATE CONVENES THURSDAY
FOURTH ANNUAL SESSION WILL
OPEN AT IMPERIAL HOTEL
IN PORTLAND.

The fourth annual session OF the
Oregon Irrigation Congress, Of which
Asa B. Thomson Of Echo, is president
will convene Thursday In the Imperial
Hotel, Portland. for three days. The
session promises to be stirring
one.
One OF the most important matters
to come before the congress will be
the recommendation as 10 which pro-
jects should receive the state and
federal appropriations. While these
recommendation do not mean that
the officials will follow them, in the
past they are said TO have been OF
considerable influence.
A strong delegation Is expected
from Malheur and Crook counties. II
is probable that the fight between
the Deschutes project and the owy-
hee project for the major portion OF
the s450,OOO appropriation that Sec
retary Lane has promised to recon-
mend will be hot one.
Officers OF the congress are:
President, Asa b. Thomson, Echo;
first vice president, j. w. Brewer,
Portland; second vice-president, ]. r.
Blackaby, Ontario; third vice presi-
dent, w. Lair Thompson. Lakeview;

Herbert Corey is perhaps the best
known American correspondent in the
great war. His daily letters from
France, Holland, Germany, Belgium,
and England have been 1t feature OF
many American newspapers and have
so we'll pictured the horrors of the
war that he has been described by
authorities as the literary find OF the
Year"
He went TO Europe the day Ger
many declared war ON Russia and
since that time he has written more
than 200, 900 words which have been
read by millions in the United States.
Many OF his striking letters were
cabled to the London Times, the lead
ing newspaper of Europe, and created
sensation there. Despite threats
made by the British censor Mr. Corey
went on writing what he thought OF
the attempts to muzzle the British
press and American newspapers
through control of the cable. His let
ters have been incisive and brilliant
and have shown the insight which
comes from long training on Ameri-
can newspapers in every part OF the
United States

All School Telephones May Have to Be Rem3Ved Ol Account Of Il.
WORDING OF MOTION .NtxpuCIT
Calls for Removal of All But Three of Towns Tclcphones-Vctera Re- Appomatox Fifty Years Ago.

A peculiar situation has arisen be- cause of the wording of the resolution regarding the town telephones, which was passed at the secold adjourned annual town meeting Monday even- Ing The committee of five, repre- senting the "opposition" faction in kensington, drew up the motion in advertently, making it SO elastic that It can be interpreted differently than they intended.
 The resolution, as presented by Harry Taylor and subsequently, passed. reads as follows:
 Resolved: That the town of Der lin after this date, pay but for three telephones for the town officials, one for the first selcciman, one at the office of the town clerk and one at the town farm, the one ut the town farm to be eighteen dollars per year, and that the town clerk be instructed to notify the telephone company of the action of this meeting at once.
 When the town pffiojals oXlmincl the resolution the day following tho tumultuous town meeting. they per ceived the fact that it would dcvolvc upon the town clerk to order the tele phones removed from not only his own home and that of Sclectman Newton Baldwin, but also from the school houses in the town. There is an instrument in the Hubbard school at East Berlin, the kensington Grammar school, the W.orthington Grammar school and the Selden school at Beckley Quarter, the con tracts for three of which call for limited service at eighteen dollars q year, the other being a flat rate phone Rt thirty-four dollars year
 Although the committee while drawing up the resolution. did not intend that 1t should. Lave so wide n scope, the elimination or these four telephones will mean saving of about eighty eight dollars and the entire move of economy will leave $155 more in the town treasury at the end of each year.
 MT. Taylor was interviewed over the telephone today and he made the statement that he did not think the town meeting had direct jurisdiction over his matter but that a recom- mendation should come from the school board. He did not make the a positive statement, however. An attempt was made to get Thomas Emerson on the telephone, but he could not be reached. MT. Emerson was secretary of the "opposition" meeting and was also a member or the committee which framed the res olution in question.
 In compliance with the instructions Issued by the meeting. Town Clerk
