pears from a casual Inspection of the

Greeks insulting names. That Is the
Greek version. He wa8 ordered out,
say the proprietors of the place, be
cause he had, according to the Infor
mation, made overtures to ja white girl
here,- and he was not wanted on the
premises on that account. The upshot
of it was that two Greeks ouated the
man bodily and a fight ensued on the
street. The Turk who resembles a
white man greatly, gained .the eympa
thles of bystanders who thought he
was an American and wag. being pum

that violence against the classic race

afterwards arrested and is now serv

only were preferred against the three.
It is said by the Greeks that they know

at least one white girl In this city and

The Oregonlan's lineup of congres
sional lightning rods Is minus two
names, and they are from La Grande,
according to well informed politicians
in this city. The Oregonlan yesterday
published a list of probable candidates
for the new congressional district
which ig due to be created by con
gressional enactment at this session
but which, as yet, has not been done. It
is understood there is some opposition
to the re-apportionment of the nation.
al house but whether this is strong
enough to prevent the passage of the
measure which is now up to the sen-'
ate, navmg been adopted by the House,
remains to be seen. The senate votes
on this measure August 7th. "
Assuming that it will pass there will
be a lively scramble for the new office
to be created in Eastern Oregon. ThereJ
are two men In La Jrande not men
tioned In the appended list of Eastern
Oregon congressional timber, who are
said to be aligning their political rods
right now but for various reasons have
not stepped in to the public limelight.
However, this will be dono at the right
time and place. The Oregonlan's arti
cle, of general Interest in Eastern Ore
gon, says In part: .

If you are so unfortunate as to have lost one or more ;
teeth, those most impor tent organs, and you would like ; :
th have the spaces filled, come and talk to us about bridge !:
work. A little time and a few dollars spent in putting :
the teeth in the proper condition may save you an un
told amount of physical suffering from indigestion and other
concomitant ills. Do not expect the balance of the di-
gestive tract to MASTICATE your food, it has enough
to do to digest it after you have the food prepared for
it. When you stop to think of it, a large part of physi- I
cal ills is the result of improperly masticated food.
Moral:--Have ycur teeth put in the proper condition.
I This advise is free.
