Impute UnttrnnexM,
"The consulting physicians have gone
to Eastern Oregon for the purpose of
locating a site for the branch asylum,"
says an exchange. This is untrue, be
cause a site hnf already been selected by
Gov. Pennoyer, Secretary Mcltride and
Treasurer Metschnn. That site is Pen
dleton and the board of consulting phy
sicians are being sent to other places
only as a subterfuge in the interest of
this board, which wants no "hornet's
nest" stirred up in the bunch grass
country this close to election. Those
places besides Pendleton that have put
in an application may as well let their
hopes "mist away" now. The physici
ans on that junketing trip hnve no say,
and Pendleton knocks the persimmon.
Salem Independent.
Tin: CnitoxicLi: cannot believe that
such corruption' is being entertained on
the part of the governor, secretary and
treasurer, who have always heretofore
been considered as honorable gentlemen,
and should like to see tho Independent
disputed once and forever by the parties
whoso honor is thus called into question.
Shiloh's cure, tho Great Cough and j

Tho site ofl'ered west of tho city for tho
branch asylum isunnpproachnblo by nny
other candidnte. The physicians hero
today cannot well help rewrting that
for natural beauty, excellence and
abundance of water, climatic conditions
and healthfulness Tho Dalles oilers the
best sito by long odds, and relying upon
these facts Tho Dalles has not mado nn
active strife through tho newspapers,
leaving that part of the controversy to
points less favored by nature. The
gcopraphical position also is favorable
to The Dalles from a standpoint of econ
omy. Interchanging of patients be
tween the two asylums will be constant
on account of the different climatic con
ditions being more favorable to some
patients than others, and the transfer
ring of patients from Salem to the new
asylum on completion will alone amount
to thousands of dollars difference in
favor of Tho Dalles. The fare from
Salem to The Dalles via tho boat com
pany is $4.10. From Salem to Pendleton
tho fare is about $11.50. On 200 patients
the difference is over $1,200. Hence the
argument that we arc not centrally lo
cated has no force. The capitals of
nearly all the states are not centrally
located of which Oregon itself is one.
If there is any force at all in
the argument of geographical location,
let it be considered that we have a vast
stretch of country to the south of us
which is tributary only to The Dalles.

DECISION ON TITLES.
Tho Word Niitlotml" Mutt Not Ho Udell
by Private Corporntlntid.
One of the most important of recent
events in building and loan circles is
tho decision of Comptroller Eckels, of
the treasury department, regarding the
style of associations doing business on
what is known as the "national plan."
lie holds that the use of the word "na
tional'' as the part of a title or name
of an association is illegal and cites tho
following statute in support of his po
sition: "All banks, except national banks,
and all persons or corporations doing
business ns bankers, brokers, or saving
mm
COMPTROLLER J. II.' ECKELS.
institutions are prohibited from using
the word 'national' as a portion of
the title of such bank, firm, or corpora
tion, and any violation of this prohibi
tion committed after September 3, 1S73,
shall subject the offending party to a
fine of fifty dollars a day for each day
during which it is repeated."
The question has been referred to
the attorney general of the United
States foran opinion. If sustained the
decision will affect a large percentage
of the associations which operate on
the national plan.
