The City Council has approved and ac cepted the report of Special Knglneer . J. Roberts for reconstruction of the municipal water plant, and the City Re corder has been Instructed to proceed In the regular way and place the sub ject before the voters for their action and to authorize the necessary bond Issue. The City Council already has authority to Issue C?.M water works bonds and the bond election will be to authorise SCOCO more, making- a total of S17C- The engineer's report places the rost of reconstruction at r.M.103. The report recommends two reservoirs havt a combined capacity of 6.0.CO gallon ef water, one on Crowson hill at an vatlon of fret, and the other at the head of Gresham street, elevation 400 feet. The new system Is estimated for supplying a population of 25,tM. Portland. The members of this staff dally visit the hospital, ministering each In his special line to the Inmates, giving Tils time and talents without price. Mult nomah Hospital Is a credit to the com munity and to the County Court, but above all to the man who Is Us real founder. Judged by his humane and progressive practices during the paat eight years. It seems Improbable that Dr. Geary was unduly careless or negligent In a matter so vital as that of the rare of the tuber culous poor. If the conditions described In the papers as existing at the poor farm ivere present, the only logical con clusion Is that divided responsibility or lack of responsibility must have been accountable. Cnjust criticism keeps good men from accepting public offices in too many Instances, and It seems proper that. since Incumbents of such olTlces must ever be subjected to criticism. Just or other wise, they should receive full credit fur good deeds dona for public benefit. WILLIAM MUL5E. 1 WIFE WILL BE WITNESS rKNDLETON. Or.. Nov.

Is the logical location for the greatest dairy show in America, with the possible exception of tne na tional show at Chicago. The National Dairy Show was es. tabllshed only five years ago." lie said but In that short period It has grown to be the most magnificent dairy prop osition the world has ever seen. The show Just closed in Chicago lasted for 10 days and there were on exhibition moro than 500 dairy- cattle representing 10 different states.

The show consisted of dairy cattle, the latest Improved dairy machinery, sanitary dairy methods and appliances and everything related to progressiva dalrylnc. Oregon Advantages Told. 'Oregon Is partieulnrly adapted to two line of agriculture. One is the produc tion of fruit, the other is the dairy In dustry- Outsldo of theso two lines she has no advantages over the other states of the Lnlon. "Western Oregon should become the greatest dairy district In America. The natural advantages there presented to the Industry are eoualed at no other point In the universe and tne state should exert a supreme effort to increase u dairy production 100 per cent. 'Today we are producing approximate ly $15,000,000 worth of dairy products while our capacity Is In excess of xiou.- 000.000. In Oregon at present are to be found dairy animals that would furnish the foundation for an Immense dairy In dustry and by giving aid and every pos sible encouragement our wealth could be Increased Immeasurably. "It Portland will promote and develop Western dairy ehow It will In a few years become the largest and most in teresting livestock exposition held west of the Mississippi River. The Immedi ate result of such a show would be the stimulation of better dairy methods with the Immediate Improvement of the qual ity of onr dairy herds. Display- Would Attract. Such a ahow would attract the atten tion of those Interested in the dairy In dustry In other states and when they became acquainted with the possibilities In this direction, hundreds of them would lock to Oregon to encage in the In dustry. 'The show should consist of exhibits of all breeds of dairy cattle and all the implements pertaining to the dairy. Dur ing the exhibition a milk and butter test should be conducted to prove the capaci ties of the various cows. The exhibitors at such a ahow should receive liberal premiums, one-half of hlch should be paid by appropriation from the state and the other half col lected from the various Interests In volved. "So far as I know there Is at present no exclusive dairy show held at any point west of Des Moines, Iowa, and Portland certainly offers a desirable field for a great Western ahow of National repu tation. i '4 A lady recently visited a friend in Keene, N. H., whose husband was very delicate, and yet she noticed that he could eat all the pie he wanted. She began to wonder how it was that he could do it, when she had to giv e up this delicacy because of disagreeable after-effects. She writes as follows: "I found it was because the pies were made with Cottolene; and as I am a great lover of pie, I began using Cottolene, and have never had a bit of lard in the house since that time. I now enjoy my pie, as it does not give heart-burn as formerly." . . Cottolene makes crisp, flaky, digestible piecrust, that tastes good, and that can be digested by any stomach. The reason is that Cottolene is a pure, vegetable oil product, containing no hog-fat. Cottolene shortens your food Lengthens your life Made only by THE N. K. FAIRBANK COMPANY r((it.f.iuuiUt M1IS. NATHAN IS CALLED WHITE SLAVE" CASE. IN GEARY'S WORK INDORSED Competent, Intelligent and Kindly, Says Dr. Pierce. PORTLAND. Nov. 4 To the Edl- tor.) Permit me at this time to say a few words In relation to the professional tandina and character of Dr. K. P. Cieary. I do not know the merits of the latw controversy, regardlnc the tubercu losis sanatorium at the County Poor Parrn. I do not wish to take any posi tion tn that matter. I have met Dr. Geary frequently dur- Ina the last five years In relation to gen era sanitary and hygienic work, and I desire to state that In the many Instances in which he was encased alone these lines, he has ever been conscientious and humane In his treatment of the poor. I believe he Is known to the profes sion as. one of our most competent, in telligent and kindly physicians. Tours ery truly. E. A. PIERCE. Government Not Daunted by Re fusal of Hazel Morrison to Aid in Bringing Conviction. Although Ilaxel Morrison, the young Canadian girl who left her home with Al Nathan, the alleged "white slaver" now on trial in the United States Court. has refused to aid In the conviction of Nathan, the Federal authorities will this morninir confront the prisoner with the wife of Nathan, her mother and the little child of the couple. The Output Can Be Doubled. "It Is generally believed that the aver age dairy cow In Oregon Is no better than the average dairy cow n tne United States. This means that the average cow in this state barely pays for the feed she consumes. On the other hand, we have In Oregon more than our share of the great record butter pro ducers of the country and If every effort Is directed during the next five or ten years toward Increasing the quality of our dairy cows, the average product cow a year can be doubled.
