Sewerage, from one 'border of the city to the other; no home so lowly, but in It health shall .reign supreme. Article III.

The hand of irrigation will be laid upon the dead wilderness and it will hurst into bloom.

Think of the empire that lies with. In your grasp, as the prize for honest endeavor. WELCOME. An exchange contains the following wholesale arraignment of public i tastes In Journalism: i 1 "The average man Is an idiot ' therefore the newspaper must he j ' idiotic. The people would ' rather read evil than virtue. They ! prefer sensation nnd depravity. They I prefer unclean to the clean. They j would resent serious discussion." If this is the standard of the masses ' If this Is the mission of the news- paper, the quicker press censorship j comes, the better. But do the people accept this as the true portrayal of their moral tastes. Do they wish to let this Idea of depraved Journalism gain credence among the children of the Innd. If so, give vicious principles the rein. If not, bar them from the light of publicity. The slow poison will taint the blood of soclnl nnd moral health, If It Is allowed to spread.

A LOCAL EPOCH. Today another tnlle-stone Is plant ed in Umatilla county. Since the borders of the county were surveyed and hor rugged lineaments traced up- on on the map, no greater movement than the reclamation of the waste lands has occupied her citizens. And in thp history of this movement, there lias bpen no greater occasion than this day's work. Wo gather as neighbors, to bring the arid desert to lire. We stand at the open gateway of a radiant dream, so beautiful, so full of possibilities, that its splendor Is dazzling. Around the altar of this industrial fraternity of reclamation are gathered the choice spirits of the age. This hand ful of pioneers, laying the flrat foun dation stones In Eastern Oregon, for that perfect edifice of the future, Is worthy or a place beside the greatest heroes. These master builders, who The people of Pilot Rock are to be congratulated upon the progress and growth which justifies the establish ment or a newspaper. It is an an nouncement which will be greeted with pleasure by Umatilla county. It, is a certain evidence of increasing business strength.

Is the present situation satisfactory to the city? You vote for councilmen. why should you not be allowed to vote for the marshal, who preserves order and the recorder who Is custodian of your rights? Why should It be said by inference that the legal voters of Pendle ton are not capable of choosing all their officials, If they choose one? These suggestions are before the people. They are thinking deeply upon them. The basis of city government, as of all other government, Is tho rights of the people. It stands to reason that the people would be satisfied with the officials elected by them. If they made a mistake In tho selection they could r.nt shift the burden to the wor- j It is a great affliction for a womnu to have her face disfigured by pimples or any form of eruptive disease. It makes her morbid and sensitive, nnd robs her of social enjoyment. Disfiguring erup tions are caused by impure blood, and are entirely cured "by the great blood purifying medicine Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It removes from the blood the poisonous impurities which cause disease. It perfectly mid perman ently cures scrofulous sores, eczema, tetter, boils, pimples and other eruptive diseases which are caused by the blood's impurity, it increases tlie action of the blood-making glands and thus in creases the supply of pure rich blood.
