Property holders and city council are both In favor of starting the Court street Improvement. , Let it begin at once. Laborers are available for the work, everything Is favorable and It will bo a benefit to the city In every way. Mucadnm for Court street will be an opening wedge for a better class of street Improvement for Main Btreet, perhaps. When once the Improvement contagion starts, there will be no end to It until the entire city Is covered with good streets. Pendleton people who have visited Walla Walla since the street Improve ment begun there have been converted to the pavement Idea hero. It gives a city such a clean, disnlfied neat, business-like appearance, and adds so much to the value of property that there can be no valid objection to It. Pavement for Main street from the O. It. & N. tracks to the bridge should be the slogan of Pendleton business men until It la accomplished. Let the Commercial association make this a business object. Just a little agitation and oducatlon will bring all the opponents Into line. It Is for the Interest of property own ers to have pavement. It Is Just like putting that much money Into a bank at Interest. "TOM" 1LV1LKY. IN MEXICO AMERCAN8 BE COME ENGLISHMEN. A FIGHT NOT WANTED. Notwithstanding the effort of the TLibutv tu force a dirty political fight in the coming city election, the people cat not want It. There Is no demand for a vile, mud sMaging, scurrilous political fight and at is hoped that decency will prevail ver the debasing- influences of the TTrfbane: TC will b:' better for the Tribune and ata aide of the questions agitating the CBTy If no fight Is precipitated, but Its Ignorance blinds It to this situa- When the citizens', ticket for coun Batmen was nominated nobody asked sjsty of the nominees as to their poll Bit. The Law Enforcement league Indorsed a councilman In every wwrit, and wlH. Support the men tn ataned, regardless of the vile attempts f the Tribune gang to divide the peo sse on political lines. The citizens' ticket for councilmen Morsed by the Law Enforcement feipie is as follows: First ward, T. J. Tweedy; Second ward, W. II. McCorm auch; Third ward, C. S. Wheeler; Vtoerth ward, E. L Smith. There is nothing secret about this ticket. It has been nominated by the Brrxl voters of each ward after due askBideratlon, and has been heartily an dorse d by the Law Enforcement Brjrne. If the Tribune has any objections tj any of these citizens let it speak and In a decent and open manner and for the honor and reputation of Jour nalism, let It quit doing the stunt of a political tool for a season. , If it must force a political fight, it win regret it for there are no valid ejections to any of the citizens' Krfcet and there are facts which It atafres to suppress In regard to those whom It is trying to force upon the people. The East Orcgonlan hoped that the caonpalgn could be conducted In an erly and decent manner. But if e Tribune will force a fight 1'. can accommodated. The historians may write it "Judge Thomas Griffin Halley" in their pon derous annuls of Oregon, but In the hearts of his countrymen It will be written plain "Tom" Halley. He isn't swelled up about It It will take something more than office to turn Tom Halley's head. He is a pio neer and a son of plonoor parents and supreme judgeships or federal judge ship, or even the governorship of the state of Oregon would never change his democratic spirit, nor his kindly, genial, affable, energetic nature. In the social whirl and the official maelstrom of Oregon's "swift and dashing" capital city, he will always be found on the same sane level which he has acquired In the sagebrush. His heart is In the right place and is. of proper size and nothing will alienate him from the common people. The strange evolutions of politics may elevate him still higher. If so, It can be safely asserted that it will be upon merit and not through ways that, are dark nor tricks that are vain. Eastern Oregon needs more such men In the councils of the state to balance the scales. . v. V'lIY CLOSE THE SCHOOLS? THE TRUTH ABOUT OREGON. The attempt of the Tribune to asread alarm and cast blame upon the aekjool board this morning la in keep Baa; with Its character. The school board has watched the aTiphtherla situation closely, has con suited with Dr. W. G. Cole, city phy artan, every day upon the subject. Lsd it has been the understanding that 9f the cases became severe and the spread of the disease continued that the East End school would be closed, et unless It Heemed necessary it weald not be done. While theaters, Sunday schools, ckarches, public meeting and all bo sbkI gatherings are permitted to con tknoe, why close the school? As has keen suggested by the school board sus elty health officers time and time axsUn, children are much better off at school under the care of a teacher than on the streets and visiting from BMse to house as is done when they rrwialn out of school. The slight cases of diphtheria are krtng released from quarantine every stay and there are no serious cases In rh city. The same epidemic has vis stad other Oregon towns, Including CBrvallis. McMinnvllle and Astoria. The Salem Journal prints a ringing editorial upon the development of Oregon which Is worth placing in the scrap book In every home In the state. It Is a commonplace subject but it Is treated In an especially Inspiring manner this time. The East Orcgonlan takes pleasure In printing the article In full, and in heartily endorsing every word of It The Journal says: The Interior of the state has numer ous primary Interests to promote and protect. The Interior has no legitimate cause to fight Portland or to oppose lm porvement of the Columbia. We have and should have only good will toward Portland and the Colum bia river Interests. Eut we have tremendous Interests that need fostering and promotion In dependent of Portland and the Columbia. We must fisut for the development of the interior, for the opening of west coaat harbors, and for the build ing of a large city on the coast and another In the Interior. That Is the meaning of sending a delegation of 30 representative men to Washington In January to work for our rivers and harbors. Independent of Portland. We must develop the resources of western ond eastern Oregon, with the help of Portland if possible, without it if necessary. This Btate is big enough to have three or fojur large cities. There will be one In the Willamette valley wher ever the great transportation lines to the Inland empire east and west cross the main line of transportation north and south. It may be Salem. It may be Albany. It may be Eugene. It may be Roseburg. But development will come through Independent lines of action Inde pendent of Portland. The American consular service Is so Inferior to that of Knglund that over 2000 Americans in Mexico have sworn allegiance to the lliitlsh crown, because wherever you trace the blood red murks on tho map of the world there you will find white men protect ed by llrltlsh bulldogs of tho sea. The great empire tolerates no Injustlco towurds its subjects In foreign lands, and the phrase, "Once an Englishman, always an Englishman," means more in South America than the Monroe doctrine. This is the surprising statement of W. W. Crawford, superintendent of the Elizabeth M. Uyers school for boys, who has Just returned to Den ver from a sojourn In Mexico, says the Denver Post. "The sister republic has little re gard for us," continued Mr. Crawford, "mid an American Is thrown Into Jail, starved. Insulted and bullied for six months, und when finally given a trial un ignorant Judge sentences him to two years in the penitentiary for a trivial offense. "This never happens to an English man, because his country's consuls consider an Insult or Injury to a sub ject a breach of international etiquette or something of the sort, and when one Is harmed In Mexico the British government Immediately sends a gun boat to the waters of the sleepy har bors and the Mexican officials wake up to a realization that there is trou ble ahead. "There are countless opportunities for young Americans with capital of, say, (1000 In Mexico, but we will never be able to carry on successful trade Interests In that country unless our consular service is bolstered up with reputable men, vastly Increased and backed up by the United States navy and congress to the last demand. "Labor Is as cheap In Mexico as It is In the orient. Peons In the Interior receive about IS cents Mexican, or 7 cents American, per day. The natives working on the wharf at Tamplco ro- ceivc 75 cents American money, and they work like stokers, but they think they are getting rich. On these im mense wages a peon will work for a year steadily and then retire to his mountaln-vlllags; home, prepared to live on what on what he thinks is the fat of the land for life. About 90 per cent of the popula tion are Illiterate. The year is broken up Into 1SS saints' holidays. Every body drifts along. The energetic American can grow wealthy on small capital and average effort, because he has no persistent competitors. But as far as the science of living Is con cerned the Mexicans have us. beaten. They are far happier as a people than we. "A sample of tholr Intense Ignor ance Is shown by the following Inci dent: . r . i 'I "An American physician carried on a free campaign of education among the natives of Tamplco last summer and taught them that the chief and most dangerous source of yellow fever Inoculation Is by the mosqultos that Infest all places where water stag nates. In visiting the numerous churches the physician observed that the holy founts holding pools of stale water were perfect cultures for the germs of yellow fever and fine breed ing places for the mosqultos. and thousands of the wlgglers could be seen squirming In the water. The physician warned the padres to pro tect their flocks by putting kerosene In the founts, thus killing the wlgglers but the worthy priests said, 'No! No! Mosqultos hatched In holy water could not be bad!" "There seems to be a widespread belief that the cost of living in Mexico Is lower than It is In this country. This Is not so, as the following mar ket prices, taken from quotations of a Mexican paper will prove: Flour, per 100 pounds, J9.00; sugar, It cents a pound; lard, 31 cents a pounds; but ter, 75 cents a pound; eggs, 60 cents a dozen; potatoes, 10 cents a pound: onions, i cents a pound; cabbage, 30 cents per head; tomatoes, 25 cents a pound: ham, 80 cents per pound; beans, 30 cents per pound, and evory other food staple In proportion, with the exception of fruits. "In all Mexican towns the dead are buried In vaults In high walls. The relatives of the deceased have to pay high rent on the tomb compartments. Of course, a peon's wealth Is usually ...nlted to a straw hat and a gee string so that In most cases the rent Is paid only once. When the rent expires, the decaying corpses are thrown Into an open pit Thousands of huge tur key buzzards prey upon the bodies of .ion forgotten ancestors and spread contagious diseases far and wide. And tourists wonder why Mexico Is so un healthy." Dainty Foods Demand It IN EVERY Receipt that calls for cream of tartar, soda, or baking powder, use the Royal Baking Powder. Better results will be obtained because of the absolute purity and great leavening strength of the Royal. It will make the food lighter, sweeter, of finer flavor, more digestible and wholesome. It is always reliable and uni form in its work. Alum and phosphate baking powders some of them sold at the same price and some of them cheaper will make neither dainty nor wholesome food.
