The first requisite, if the old method, generally used in towns and .small cities' of hauling the refuse out of the limits and dumping it, is to be followed; is the location of such a (lumping ground. And where is there .such a place that can be secured? The dumping ground must not be near any public road leading to the city. It must not, jie within sight of the railroad track, for in ('it her of these cases it gives a bad im pression to one coming to the city. Then it must not be near any habitation; at least not within a half mile or so; for then it would become a nuisance subject to abate ment proceedings and endanger the health of the community. Also it'must not be land that is capable of boinir used nroductivclv. or liable to he so used in the near future. Willi these elements considered where is there a place accessible to Ontario that might be secured? To the IOasl of the city there are ranches too close to any accessible place. The same is true to the South, tho there is a small dumping ground on (he road to the cemetry Hull, is a disgrace. To the West of the city there- i'h nothing but ranches and therefore no suitable location. That leaves the only poKBible site to be found North of the city. ' .'Just North of tho Kair ground, about a half of a mile there is a place that would fiiinill nearly every requirement. It is far Iroin any hahitatioii, it is easy of access: it is not now productive, is hidden from the view of people eoniiug to (lie city from that direction. Hut (his laud cannot be pur chaaud for a dumping ground. It is callable of production and the owners do not desire to have their other PERFECTLY PROPER The majority of the people will sustain! Governor Olcott s relusal to call a special session of the legislature to consider the proposal to ratify the woman's suffrage amendment to the constitution' even if the', do not approve oi the grounds he gives for his action. The women of the states' which' will be affected by the ratification of the. amend ment have waited for more than a quarter of a century for enfranchisement, and the delay of a year or vo will not materially injure them. The women of Oregon of Oregon of course will not adversely affect at all. We can see no good reason why the leg islators of the state should be compelled to submit to the eonditions which the Gov ernor imposes. AVe do not believe the ex ecutive ought to attempt to coerce the legis lative branch. We have had too much of that sort of thing alrcadv.

Of course the Governor does not desire to see the legislature in special session and then proceed to enact general lesislation but he must remember that the legislature was elected by the people and (hat presum ably it is ( be trusted with the duties of legislation. And, if it does not function properly the Governor still has his veto power. Knowing that he does not desire general legislation the legislature if assem bled would not court the exercise of this it power on measures oi real importance. In view of the fact that the pressure for the calling of the legislature comes, not from the women of Oreuon. but from women from states where woman's sun' rage appar ently is not wanted Governor Olcott is jus tified in declining to call thcJawinakers to gether. There is no need either for the Governor or members of the legislature in passing the buck back and forth, for there is no popular demand for the extra session XAZAHKXH C'HUIK'll 4. M. Wlnox, Castor.

This road has now secured the indorse ment of the State Cluunbor of Commerce. And this endorsement is worth while, for it. indicates Hint tin are uol giultv o thoilato lead to their bailiwick. There is no denying the benefit that this road will be to all of .Malheur count v. There is no denying that it is needed, ami needed now. Also there is no denying the fact that it will not be built in the immediate future. This could not be reasonably expected. Hut if uan be asserted that had a real movement for this highway been started years ago it would have been on the present road program. .it may talco years to accomplish tins result- wo hope that this will not be so but that is no reason why all of the com munities along tho proposed highwav should not keep continually at it. Why not have an Ontarlo-Nyssa-Jordau Valley-Nevada highway association repre sented by men from each community in h( piloted to keep pounding awav until this highway is an accomplished fuel. Wo have the assurance of our repre sentatives in the last legislature that they will attempt to have this road designated as a state highway at the next session. That may bo necessary before anything can be acuQinplishcd.

OUR CHALLENGE of several years ago bridged has been, more or less disregarded by the Nippouesse. Noi one who'has watched the docking of a Jap-i anese ship at any of the Pacific ports and has seen the "picture" brides pat top down' the gang plank can be convinced that the men who met them were not laborers here contrary to the explicit agreement of the Japanese authorities not to permit that class' of cnuuigratioii. Tt is time that the people of America awakened to this situation. There is no us trying to deceive ourselves as we did in the, case of Germany and then awaken to tliej fact that un American influences are en trenched so firmly as to be a menace to oitrj national life. Ha the leaders of political thot. had the students of history tauulit ariuht the trend of events and saunded the warning in time America would have saved itself many hit-i tor experiences. But American leaders were either ignorant of the facts or neurli-! gent in resenting them.

' ' THE STORY IN A NUTSHELL Briefly stated there are just five big essential reasons whv SER VICE Motor Trucks should be your choice. Comparison of per formance and investigation of records will convince von that SERVICE does excel in these live big features. VALUE Tn size, strength, power and actual loading capacitv, SER VICE MofoV Trucks dlfer un usual value for the money. POWER Reserve power for unexpected demands masters road and load. SlOUVICrc engines deliver fully eleven per cent moro power than others of equal rating. STRENGTH Unusual strength, continued with remarkable flexibility, ac counts for the extraordinarv durability of SERVICE. There is super-strength in every part, yet no excess weight. ECONOMY More time on the road and less in the repair shop economy of gasoline and oil features that make SERVICE Motor Trucks big dividend payors. DEPENDABILITY The absolute dependability of SEUVTflT! o-ivns l'mnni'l.-nhlit .n lidence to both owner and driver. Compare before you buy! Look behind and beyond present price and specifications. Get at the Facts .Put a Service beside any truck of the same rated capacity on the market. .Judge first by the eye-test. You will see marked advantages in the service. Then put them to the performance test- Load t hem equally, and put them through the severest possible triais. In the Challenge, We Make no Exceptions, We Bar None We are willing to let you take the Ser vice for a trial. Put it through the most severe test. Try out the SERVICE against ANY other truck you think is a good bur then decide. If you judge on the basis of performance and sheer merit you'll choose Service. But, go further than ''trying out." Investigate, records, of. performance, OP THE MANY USERS IN MALHEUR COUNTY, in regard to the upkeep cost, operating expense and LIFE OP THE TRUCK. SERVICE can show wonderfully low ton mile costs and when it comes to long lift SERVICE has few, if any equals. Sold bv A. S. Brown Auto Co., Ontario. Vale Machine and Welding Works, Vale. Hf I
