Portland, Jan 12 At the fifth annual
convention of the Osteopaths which was
In session here today, Dr. F. E, Moore, of
LaGiande, wae elected vice president
He held the executive seat three years
ago.
A bill was framed for presentation to
the State Legislature by which it is hoped
to secure a State Board of Examiners
for osteopaths whereby they may be
licensed for practice the same ae doctors
of medicine are. In the bill osteopathy is
defii.ed as "that science or system of
medicine which treats diseases of the
human body by manual therapeutics for
the stimulation of the remedial and re
sisting forces within the body itself, for
thfl correction of misplaced tissue and the
re.noval of obstructions or interferences
with the fluids of the body, all without
the internal administration of drugs or
medicines.
Oregon is one or me eigntoen states in
in the Union that is without laws regulat
ing the regular licensing of the osteopaths
and naturally the members of the associ
ation are anxious to see the n.eded legis
lation.
Mrs. Dr. Moore, of Li Grande, was
chosen as one of the program committee
for the ensuing year.
SNAKE RIVER ISUOSED

ated by the O. R. & N.
VALUABLE DOG POISONED
Last night a valuable dog owned by Mrs.
Ida M. Greenwood, was poisoned and
oied after suffering terrible agony.
Whether or not some one has started the
inhuman act of poisoning canines is of course
not yet asserted itseif, but should such be
the case it would be well for owners of
valuable dogs to keep close watch of them,
Even a ciirr deserves a better death than
'poisoning, hut when it comes tomaltre&tipj;
valuable house pets in so cruul a manner,
something should be done to apprehend
theperpretrators. '

just closed a contract with the Arcadia

THEY RAN AWAY
The Electric Light Company's team,
which transports the material wagon
about the city and valley, was this morn
ing hitched in the roar of the company
office, but they didn't remain their long.
A slight noise frightered the team, and
in a moment they were sailing out thiu
the alley between the light office and the
bank building. The sudden defection on
reaching Dopot street was too much for
the wagon and over it went. The box
was broken, awheel smashed and the
team thrown. When the team was cut
from under the debris it was found that
neither of the horses were injured. But
there were bits of wire, globes, hammers,
screws and other lighting paraphernalia
scattered for a block and the line crew
spent most of the forenoon picking up the
lost articles.
