Burns and family, all of this city, spent, Monday evening at the home of the chief's parents, Mr. and Mrs. V. P. Burns, id Portland. The occasion was the sixtieth anniversary of the marriage of the latter couple. The two were united In Qulncy, 111., Sep tember 21, 1848, and four years later, they arrived In Oregon City, after a perilous trip across the plains. In 1800, Mr. Burns was elected sheriff of this county, and he served In this capacity for eight years. He also held the position of Deputy United States Marshal for a period of five years.

P. railroad, was arrested by Constable Miles, and i.rmiirht hpfni'fv f!nnntv .ludee Dimlek Monday morning on charge of neglect ing his family. Hambo, it seems, is an habitual drunkard, and allows his children to grow up in idleness, not even sending them to school. He fails to provide ample means for their sup port, and the home is reeking in filth. Judge Dimick sternly reprimanded Rambo for his actions, and sentenced him to 30 days in the county jail. The culprit begged hard to escape the pun ishment, and promisea iuiuiiuny iu .cf,i,.m ar tho liwlirp relented, and paroled him on condition that he would cease to indulge in tne nowing bowl, would provide for his family and send his children to school, and last but not least, would clean his house and premises to a presentable onnriltlnn Hp will he remilreri to nut in an appearance at his home at least once a day.

A Traveling Man's Experience. "I must tell you my experieuoe on an east-bound O. R. &. N. R. R. 'train from Pendletou to LnUrniide, Ore.," writes Sam A. Garber a well-known traveling man. "I was in the smok ing department with some other trav eling men when one of thera went out into the coach and came back an said There is a woman sick unto death in the car. ' I at once got op and went out, found tier very ill with cramp colic, her hands and arms were drawn up so yon could not straighten them, and with a deathlike look on her face. Two or three ladieB were working with her and giving her whiskey. 1 went to my nit case and got a bottle ot Cham berlain's Colic, Cholera and Diar rhoea Remedy (I never travel with out it, ran to the water tank, put a double dose of the medicine ia the glass, poured tome water in it and stirred it with a pancilj then I had quite a time to get the ladies o let me give it to her, but I succeeded I could at once see die effect, and I worked with her, rubbing her h inds, and in tweuty minutes I gaveiier an other dose. By this time we were almost into La Grande, where I was to letve the train. I gave the bottle to the husband to be used in case an other dose should be neoded, but by the time the train got into La Grande she was all right, and I received the thanks of every passenger in the car.

SEELEYS' "The Peoples Store" OREGON CITY OREGON If 1 ft -Jf I Tllllll rv-ft SOCIALISM AND M. 0. Socialists Regard Municipal Ownership as a Step In the RightsOirection. At the recent labor conference at Hull, England, a resolution was adopt ed to the effect ttjat "socialism Is the definite ob'ject of the Labor party." This. party has steadily favored mu nicipal ownership, but until this year has been unwilling to take the next and logical step of indorsing social ism. This action just taken Is helpful to a clearer linderstnndlng of the rela tion between the two movements. So cialism stands for the collective own ership of all the means of production; municipal ownership stands for the collective ownership of a part of the means of production. The difference Is one of degree, not of kind, and In Great Britain no logical line of demar cation between the two has been found. . In this country, too, the Socialist la making full use of municipal owner ship. He well knows that many peo ple will take tickets for a short ride who would be frightened away If urged to buy a . through ticket The main point is to get them started toward his ultimate goal. After a man has been enlisted In favor of municipal owner ship It Is comparatively easy to get hhn to accept the principle of public ownership of railroads, telegraphs and coal mines, although he may still not be ready to accept the whole Socialist programme, collective ownership of all the means of production, for the sim ple reason that he Is apt to be an owner or part owner of some "means of production" himself e. g., a shop or a store or a share or two of stock In a manufacturing plant That Is why the national platform of the Socialist par ty la discreetly silent on some of the cardinal doctrines of socialism. The real purpose of collective ownership of all the means of production Is there fore toned down to a demand for "The collective ownership of rail roads, telegraphs, ; telephones, steam ship lines and all other means of transportation and communication and all land. "The collective ownership of all In dustries which are organized on a na tional scale and in which competition has virtually ceased to exist. "The extension of the public. domain to include mines, quarries, oil wells, forests and water-power." " The platform Is silent about munic ipal ownership of lighting plants and waterworks because M. O. people are attending to that part of the Socialist programme, leaving the thoroughgoing Socialist free to concentrate his efforts on the second part of the programme as outlined above. It may look entic ing, but remember that socialism doesn't intend to stop with public utili ties and big corporations nor until It has swallowed 'up in the great state machine every vestige of private own ership of everything except what a man wears nn his batik or needs to furnish his home. HITS DETROIT CITY PLANT. Alderman Points Out Weak Place In Municipal Management. "If the truth were known," said Al derman R. M. Watson of Detroit while In Milwaukee, "we are paying more for electric light In Detroit at the munici pal plant than we could get It for from a private corporation. Our plant Is ob solete." The delegation of Detroit aldermed told Commissioner Jansea of the city's experience with munelpal heating. When the Detroit clly ball was half Its present size it cost the city $10,000 a year to heat It by a municipal plant In the building. The, Detroit Central Heating company now heats the en larged building for $3,000 a year. The visitors snld Detroit was confus ed as to what to do about the street railway system when the franchises expire In two years. The visitors said the city government of Detroit lost money on the three cent fare because the three cent fare roads do not have to maintain tjie pavement between the tracks, while the four cent roads do. Alderman Watson says that the board of estimate In Detroit has persistently refused to appropriate money to keep the municipal electric lighting plant up to date and that as a result the time will soon come when the entire expense of replacing the plant will have to be met lu one year instead of gradually from year to year, and the cost of elec tric light will rise proportionately. Milwaukee Journal. A Paylnf Inveitmeni. Mr. John White, of 88 Highland Ave., Houltou, Maino, says: "Have been troubled witli a cough every winter and spring. Last winter I tried many advertised remedies, but the oough" continued until I bought a 50 cetnt bottle of Dr. King's New Discovery ; before that was half gone, the cough was all guns. This winter the same happy result has followed; a few doses once more banished the an nual cough: I am now convinced that Dr. King's New Discovery is the beat of all cough and long rsmedies.
