Comparative receipts of livestock during July at five Western markets, at -reported to the department of commerce and labor through Its bureau of statistics, show the extent to which this branch of domestic commerce ha been affected by the packing house strikes. Comimrlng July of this year with July of last year, there lias been a decrease of over a million head of livestocks or from 2,820,046 head In 190S, to 1,554,451 head In 1904 at.the five markets of Chicago, Kansas City, Omaha, St. Louts and St. Joseph. Cattle receipts fell off 42 per cent; calves, 54 per cent; hogs, 39 per cent; sheep, 40 per cent, and horses and mules 3 per cent. In the number of j cars of stock Handled, tne montn s reeoru snows a ueureuse in iraiiii: ui , railroads from 52,752 cars In July, j ea. As a comparison. It is only nec 1901, to 30,741 cars In July. 1904, or esf,ur. , note tnat the eged Asso. a loss of 41 per cent. i elated Piess service used by the Comparing July with June of this year, the figures both as to the num ber of stook received and of cars handled indicate a heavy loss of traf fic. .-soi inirequenuy juiy is me ugnier j month of the two in the livestock trade. In this case, 1,151,217 head, or 42 per cent less were received than In June, and 21, US curs less were received, or un average loss of 13SS cars per working day from the beginning of the strike to the end of the month. The returns from the markets taken separately show as a rule that while receipt fell off rapidly, local consumption wus still more notably reduced. At Chicago, for instance, city use and loeul consumption were only one-half Unit of July, 1903, at Kansas City less than half, at Omaha 60 per cent less, und at St. Joseph 59 per cent. SPRINKLE MORE STREETS. It seems that the city council could break over the iron-clad street sprink ling rules to relieve the terrible situ ation now found In some of the real- ' denoe streets. The heavy travel has made the dust almost unbearable In the out lying residence districts and yet fami lies are compelled to suffer from it without an effort on part of the coun cil to relieve the situation, even tem porarily. It was said that this was to be a business administration for the city, and that conditions were going to be Improved In many ways. New homes are reaching out in every direction, and yet the sprinkling wagons are strangers to them. These new homes pay part of the taxes of the city and help' bear the expense, but get none of the benefits. i Instead of running wagons, trip , after trip, up und down Bluff street, where there Is but little travel, und very little dust, the same expense could be made to cover South Thomp son, High, Tustln, South Main and other hill streets, where the dust is Intolerable and the travel heavy. There may bo more work attached to sprinkling on the hill, but the city pays the contractor and the money should bo made to cover the widest possible extent of territory und the saving of horseflesh bv a nald con tractor should not be allowed to i statu! In the wny of better sprinkling service. i The people tire paying the contrnc i tor for making mud by frequent runs I over level streets, close In, while the bulk of the residence district Is suf fering for n slmre of this wtisto. There Is H growing need for more i street sprinkling, mid It can be se cured by distributing the teams on ... . hills, extending the service now rendered without Increased cost, byj making less trips on the level streets where It Is easy work, and by caus ing some of the water now absolute ly wasted, to be applied where there - ) is dust surrounding homes that pay taxes. N. H. Darton of the geological sur , vey. who visited this city yesterday to Investigate the possibility for In i creased water supply for Pendleton, says that nearly every thrifty com- munlty In the country Is making the i same urgent demand upon the gov j eminent that Pendleton Is now muk i lng Information on' better water ' sources, more plentiful supply and i permanent provision for the future. I Cities neglect to come Into control of , sufficient water supply early In their settlement. Private corporations , gain control of all available sources, and then as the cities extend and grow, they are without adequate sup- j ply. Mr. Darton says the government ! has calls for assistance in securing I water supplies that It cannot possl- bly meet. Cities In the West are cry- j lng for relief everywhere. Salt Lake City Is now tunneling for fresh wa ter, the government having set aside a reserve for that purpose. Colorado Springs Is tapping the base of Pike's Peak in hopes of securing a supply ' free from pollution, and numerous i smaller cities are searching for a suf- I flcleut flow to meet pressing needs. Health and home-bulldiug depend on the city water supply, and the curse ' of modern civilization is that private ' corporations are allowed to possess 1 exclusive control and use of water sources upon which the very life of ' the oommunlty depends. On the first page of yesterday's , Kat Oregonian were 4". separate and 1 I distinct telegraph items, from every (.,. pun iik ine worm, giving in a few j words the chief happenings of the world in condensed form.

Red is the color of danger, whether on the semaphore or on the skin. When tne face is reddened by eruptions, when boils break out on the body, or the angry red of sores and ulcers is displayed in the flesh, it is nature's 1 danjrer aiirnal. The blood is obstructed and tainted by impurities, and there can be no safety until the blood is made pure. Dr. Pierce's Golden Med ical Discovery purifies the blood, and removes the effete matter which clogs and corrupts it. It cures pim ples, boils, eczema, scrofula, cores, ulcers and other consequences of impure blood. "I fI greatly thankful for what yoiir medicine u done for me." write sir. Cha-k Iloud. of Knlkaika. Mich. "I nf. fered with xrroful.iof the head for twelve yean. Tried every kind of medicine that I heard of but fouud no cure. Kvery one that loo.rd at my head wid thev never taw anything like it.

Accept no substitute for Doctor Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, There is no other medicine which is " just as good " for diseases of the blood ami the eruptions which are caused by the blood's impurity.

The Judge in passing sentence upon this man gave him 18 months In the penitentiary. In the same penitentiary to which tills bank president Is committed n man Is serving six years for stealing a chicken. In giving an nccouut of the rich prisoner's demeanor the press reports say he "took his sentence very calm ly." No doubt of it. And so did the Judge who sentenced him take the sentence calmly too calmly to suit the sense of Justice of decent people. It Is said that socialism Is on the Increase In this country. There Is no doubt of It. And the reasons are plain. One renson may easily be dis covered In the modern Instance Just recited. The socialists can hold up the deadly parallel at the head of this editorial and say, "That Is Justice as It is exemplified under your pres ent system of society. How do you like It?" As a penalty for the failure of the battleship Ohio to make the speed of IS knots an hour, the government de ducted J19.000 from the contract price of the vessel in accepting her at San Francisco, Saturday. She made a maximum speed of 17:S3 knots. Z " The Clothing a Man or Boy should J J o a for Fall and Winter Ij. Mionn by u-, now in nil It rlclme , iii-hiic--iiiniini-".
