Some weeks ago Mrs. Ed Waud, whose
home.' was directly across Mill cieek
bridge, died, leaving to the mercies of a
husband scarcely worthy of the name,
a young babe and four children besides.
Greasympatfay was felt by neighbors
for the little ones, and since the mother
was taken away efforts have been '"made
to in someway provide homes for them.
Finally the case was submitted to the
county judge with a request that three
of them Grace, aged 6; Katie, aged 3,
and Emma, 4 weeks old, be sent to the
Boys and Girls Aid Society of Portland,
the complaint alleging that the father
was unkind to them and took no care
of them whatever. ' Monday,, the 13th,
is the day appointed for the hearing of
the case and the decision as to whether
they will be sent to the society. It is to
be hoped that something will be done
for the children.
Occasionally Dalles people haveadittle
variation in the regular program, and
awaken some morning to find that a
stpre, shop, or some place of business
has been opened And a few hundred
dollars ' taken, perhaps less. Such oc
currences occasion' a slight excitement
for a time and the . matter is forgotten.
This should not be the case,, but every
possible means should be b Bed to bring
the culprit to justice, and, as in Tacoma,
some special efforts be made. This
morning when Mr. GunniDg came down
to hia blacksmith ehop he found that he
was worth $40 less than when he left it
last night, some individual having un
locked ibe large door on the east side
and walked away with eleven Green
river screw plates, taps, dies and stock,
and a bolt clipper, which were worth all
of $40. The case containing the screw
plates was left, and many tools which
were valuable. No possible clue as
to the robber can be found; but every
effort is being made to apprehend .him.
Mr. Gunning eaye,he cannot replace the
screw plates here and perhaps not in
Portland. ' .
"Whatsoever thy hand findefh to do,
do it with all thy might" has. been the
motto of Mr. S. B. Adams, whose third
term - of office as school director ends
with the election Monday. Mr. Adams,
we understand, has fully decided not to
again accept the office, and certainly
Dalles people could not expect more of
him than has already been given. Dur
ing the nine years in which he has
served the district as director, his whole
purpoee and aim seemed to be the good
of the school and everything ia connec
tion', therewith, devoting most of bis
time to his duties in that line. Had he
been erecting a residence of his own he
could not have been more enthusiastic
over every detail.than, was he regarding
the erection- of the new High school
buildiDg, and his only regret now is that,
bis term is up before he has seen the
work of beautifying the grounds fully
completed, and still expresses himself as
determined to- take as much interest as
though be were a director. District No,
12 should feel very grateful to Mr,
Adams for his efforts in its behalf, and
trust that in its new director .will be
found one who has its good so much at
heart. . '

MONDAY'S ELECTION.
GleTK and One Director Are to'le
Chosen.
. V
Next Monday afternoon there is to be
an election in The Dalles for the pur
pose of electing a school clerk and one
director for district No. 12. . This should
be a matter of great import to every cit
izen and all interested in the welfare of
the , city, whose bcHooIs area verv im
portant factor in its progrees. On those
who have in v charge the direct manage
tnent of the affairs of the school district
much 'depends, and much is expected
Therefore none should overlook the fact
that the best men possible should be
placed in each positions ; not those who
will take -no special nor personal in
terest in the matter.
Monday ia the day to give -the sub
ject your attention, not a week tr month
after the election,- when you realize that
-the wrong -man has been pat in a most
important place, and begin' to find fault
with every move made by the board.
The district at this time needs the best
business men to be found ; ..men who
plan for its- financial interests in as con
scientiouB a manner as they wonld for
their own.
So many questions are being asked re
garding the qualification of voters as de
cided by our late legislature, that we
again publish the law governing Hi
Read it carefully and further questions
will be unnecessary :.
"In the Ecbool districts in ' this state
now created or that shall hereafter be
created, any citizen of this state, male or
female, married or unmarried, shall' be
entitled to vote at any school election or
school meeting, who ib twenty-one years
of age, and has resided in the district
thirty days immediately preceding the
meeting or, election, and who has prop
erty in the district of the value of at
least $100, as shown by the last preced,
ing county assessment, upon which he
or she is required to pay a tax ; provided,
that in districts of less than one thousand
inhabitants women who are widows and
male citizens over twenty-one years of
age who have children in the district of
school age, and who shall have resided
in the district thirty -days.j as' aforesaid,
shall he entitled to vote at anv school
meeting for the election of ecbool di
rector or school clerk."
A Meat and Attractive Office.
If there is one place above another
which should be clean and inviting it is
a physician's and a dentist office. Dr,
Sanders must realize this fact from the
manner in which he has beautified the
office recently purchased from Dr.
Frazier. Besides the . laboratory and
operating room, -be has "a nice little
library and a reception room which
would do credit to any home. The
carpet, portieres, oil' paintings . and
other furniture display the best of taste
and make one forget the object for which
they came hither.
Dr. Sanders is now ready to begin
dental work in earnest, which fact will
be appreciated by Dalies people who are

Leader, Mexia, Texas. "In the latter
case I used Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy, and I think with considerable suc
cess, only being in bed a little over two
days against ten days for the former at
tack. The second attack I am satisfied
would have been equally as bad' as the
first bn.t for the use of this emedy as 1
had to go to bed in about six hours after
being 'struck' with it, while in the first
case I was able to attend to business
about two days before getting 'down.' "
