THE GLASS ARTISTS.
At last there has been a prosecu
tion and conviction over the crime of
breaking glass on the public highway.
May an auto tire has been ruined in
and1 around La Grande through the
inward meanness of those whose
cowardly spirit prompts them to do
shady tricks under the cover of night
or of isolation.
There may be some who do not
know it is a crime to break glass on
the highway. As 'ruormation, they
should take warning and to those who
know, but want to be mean in the
face of the law the small fine im
posed upon the wrong doers can only
be taken as an initiative step to
what the justice will impose for a
second offense.
It happened that the case in ques
tion was outside the city limits and
justice speedily was dispensed by the
justice of peace. But inside the cor
porate limits of the city there are
many brazen trangrcssions of the
law. Bottles are broken often in
the business district andl the glass
strewn across the street so that no
machine could get past without in
juring its tires.
Thus far no one has been caught
in the city but from now on it is
vciy likely there will be a guilty pan.-,
ty picked up occasionally. It is to
the city's direct interest to stop this
offense because, as the law has been
promulgated, the owner of any ma
chine who receives damage to tires :
from broken glass on the street has
a case against the city for damage,
just the same as the man or woman

A POOR JOB.
For a stunning disappointment the
O. W. R. & N. train robbers are the
worst we ever heard of. They could
not pose for a successful moving pic
ture, for they would quit just before
the climax. The least they could have
done after going as far as they did
with the robbery would have been to
either remained in hiding or made
Sheriff Till Taylor's hunch come
true by hiking to Montana or
W yoming. Almost a grave a crime as
train robbing is the proving of er
ror in judgment of the Umatilla
sheriff and Detective Ed Wood. These
sheep-hearding train robbers are not
ethical. They do not do the thincs
usually done by bold, bad criminals
hence officers with bars on their ,
shoulders like a barred Plymouth,
cannot figure out their movements. !
It is gratifying to know thnt the train 1
ro' bers are in jail, but it is disgust- I
it.g to think of a couple of sheep- ;
herders creating all of this excite- !
ment with no ability to pull off a :
classic finale. !
