parties. Every mount that had new

It will be only a matter of a week or
10 days before the troop will be on its

announced last night at retreat that
the next competitive drill will be a full
mounted one. With this In view many
of the mounted parties were on the
parade ground schooling their horses.
This week Is being looked forward to
with eager expectation, for Captain
White will assign to each trooper his
own mount. It is hoped the Govern
ment paymaster will appear on the
scene.
The Troop A athletes may lose, but
they never quit trying. On invitation

serted Is not in accordance with the
German demand for immediate action
by the United States.
I.anKl n k Pnparlns Aaother Note.
The Administration is preparing a
two-edged sword - which it believes
will bring the allies to terms and satis
fy the German governn ent. Secretary
Lansing will return to his desk at the
State Department this- week. He will
bring back with him the draft of one
of the stiffest notes yet sent to the
Brltlah government. That draft will
contain an Imperative demand for the
removal of illegal restrictions from
American trade.
The wisdom of the action will be
discussed with Ambassador Page, who
Is coming to Washington. Such changes
as may be deemed necessary will be
made in the communication, and then
Mr. Page will return with It to Lon
don and present It to Sir Edward
Grey, the British Minister for Foreign
Affairs.

It will be recalled the German reply

declared that "should steps taken by

situation in which it must reserve to

that four months have elapsed since

ATHENA, Or., Aug. . (Special.)
The people of Athena and vicinity, gen
erally Epeaking, are strongly opposed
to the proposed bill tor a Normal school
at Pendleton. At a meeting held in the
office of B. B. Richards, City Recorder,
and presided over by Mayor Homer I.
Watts, citizens adopted a protest, in
part as follows:
Tve, the people of Athena. Umatilla
County, Or, in a mass meeting as
sembled, do declare it to be our belief
and opinion that the Pendleton Normal
school bill should be defeated. When
the voters and the taxpayers of the
state deem it advisable to re-establish
a Normal school in Eastern Oregon, we
believe that the state school now in ex
istence at Weston, which was never
abolished, but merely failed of support,
should be restored to usefulness. We
regard the abandonment of this school
by the State Senate in 1309 as a high
handed act of political reprisal.
'From the viewpoint of the tax-pay
ing public outside of its immediate
environs, Pendleton's claims would
seem absurd. Speaking for themselves,
Athena taxpayers object to paying
their share toward a 1125.000 school
plant at Pendleton, when an adequate
plant at Weston is already available.
They further object to paying an an
nual tax of .25 of a mill for a Pendle
ton school, when .40 of a mill would re
open the Weston school with an annual
income of more than double its former
maintenance."
EDITOR'S DAUGHTER WEDS

STEVENSON, Wash., Aug. . (Spe
cial.) The marriage of two of Steven
son's most prominent young people.
Walter G. Attwell, son of J. F. Attwell,
pioneer ranchman, of this place, and
Bernlce Gilder, eldest daughter of John
Gilder, editor of Skamania County
Pioneer, took place at the home of the
bride s parents at 1 o'clock today. Rev.
Charles H. Nellor. a Congregational
clergyman, officiating.
The wedding party was limited to
near friends and relatives to the num
ber of about 50 and the couple left for
week's outing at the coast, going by
automobile over the Columbia Highway,
through Portland.
COLUMBIA BEACH POPULAR
Vancouver Adds to Crowds at Hay-
den Island Resort.
VANCOUVER, Wash., Aug. . (Spe
cial.) Large numbers from this city
today went to Columbia Beach, Just
across the Columbia River, and mingled
with the many thousands coming from
Portland. Last year thousands from
here visited Columbia Beach when
there were no conveniences of any kind.
so this year, with many improvements.
it is expected the place will become
even more popular.
Traffic on the Vancouver carllne be
tween Portland and Hayden 'Island
was heavy all day and a large number
of extra trains were operated.
Large Proportion of - Orders Ex
pected to Be Placed in United
States; Other Nations to
Enter Market Soon.
CHICAGO, Aug. . Demands for an
enormous quantity of lumber to be used
in connection with the construction of
freight cars for the Russian govern
ment may soon appear on the general
lumber market in consequence of ar
rangements said to have been made by
New York bankers on a trip to that
country.
It Is believed contracts are being ne
gotiated for between 40.000 and 60.000
freight cars for Russia, and as New
York bankers are interested in the
making, of a loan to the government, it
is likely that orders for a large num
ber of thes mtw will he Tlacd In the
United States. Orders for the number
of cars mentioned would necessitate
the consumption of between 140.000.000
and 17S.000.000 feet of Inmber.
The first move in the campaign of
extending the freight equipment of the
Russian government is seen in the
awarding of contracts by the imperial
munitions board at Ottawa, OnL, for
7000 boxcars for the Russian railroads.
This order will require between 18.000.-
000 and S0.000.09l) feet of lumber. It
has been divided between the Car ad lan
Car 4t Foundry and the National Steel
Car companies.
The government had placed contracts
for several thousand cars earlier in the
year. It also is thought likely othe
foreign governments may soon appear
in the American market tor freight
cars, and the general lumber marke
will reap the benefit of the vast amount
of lumber which will be needed.
REPRISALS ARE-DEMANDED
British Workmen Would Impound

LONDON, Aug. 6. One of the biggest
demonstrations by working men that
has occurred during the war took
place in Trafalgar Square today.
The great gathering demanded repri
sals for the execution of Captain
Fryatt, of the British steamer Brus
sels, by the Germans in Belgium,
speakers urging the Impounding of all
Germans physically At and the hang

The Birtti of
an Epidemic
An unwashed milk bottle stood under the kitchen
sink from breakfast time until after supper, when the
housewife cleaned it.
During the day millions of disease germs formed in
it and numerous flies fed upon the disease -laden
milk particles.
Some of the flies remained in the house and infected
the food. Other flies went out through doors and
windows and infected other people and other food.
And so a deadly epidemic was born.
A few drops of a reliable disinfectant in that milk
bottle would have saved hundreds of lives.
Lysol'is an absolute disinfectant. Lysol kills germs
and keeps flies away more effectively than most
other methods.
A 25c bottle makes 2 gallons of disinfectant. Get
a bottle today and use the solution regularly in
garbage , cans, toilets, sinks, and wherever flies are
likely to breed or gather.
Take these simple, easy and economical precau
tions and you will make a good strong, fight against
any epidemic. Full directions accompany every bottle.

To the American Public:
Do you believe in arbitration or indus-
trial warfare?
The train employes on all the railroads
have voted whether they will give their leaders
authority to tie up the commerce of the
country to enforce their demands for a 100
million dollar wage increase.
The railroads are in the public service
your service. This army of employes is in
the public service your service.
You pay for rail transportation 3 billion
dollars a year, and 44 cents out of every
dollar from you goes to the employes.
On all the Western railroads in 1915, seventy-five per cent of the
train employes earned these wages (lowest, highest and average
of all) as shown by the pay rolls

A 100 million dollar wage increase for
men in freight and yard service (less than
one-fifth of all employes) is equal to a 5 per .
cent advance in all freight rates.
The managers of the railroads, as trustees
for the public, have no right to place this
burden on the cost of transportation to you
without a clear mandate from a public tri
bunal speaking for you.
The railroads have proposed the settle
ment of this controversy either under the
existing national arbitration law, or by refer
ence to the Interstate Commerce Commis
sion. This offer has been refused by the
employes' representatives.
. Shall a nation-wide strike or an
investigation under the Gov
ernment determine this issue?
