PERSONAL MENTION All It RUND HI PARIA-LEWISTOX TKACK n S .NO TRAINS lt-Mrts Sy Line Is Completed Hut Trains are Not In Ojieratlon Sup miI Controversy Itetwecn Hill and Hiirrtnmn Muy bo Responsible for - Delay In IiMtallutlon of Train Ser. tloe on Joint Hood. Why la the 72 miles of new O. R. & N. railroad track between Rlparla anj Lewiston not In use, Is a question asked the East Oregonlan frequently. According to all reports the line Is complete, the track bridges and all features of the road having been fin ished months ago. The special train carrying Portland business men to Lfwlxton was run over the new line In May und everything seems to be ready for traffic but regular trains have not been started und no passengers are carried. A few work trains and a small num ber of laborers are still employed at different points on the line, but Tall ica 1 men say that the track Is com plete the entire distance and why the line has not been opened has been a mystery to all the employes Interested und to the general public. . The dally boat service between Lewiston and Rlparla Is maintained, but the public Is anxiously awaiting the Installation of the regular train service. Several train and engine crews will be used on the line and a laree amount vt equipment will be needed. Inquiries are made dally at this office and at all Pendleton hotels concerning the opening of the line. It Is supposed that the matter of the operation of the line Is In contro versy between Hill and H.irrlman. It Is understood that both the Northern raeifle and the O. It. N". were to use the line, but that the. construction of the north tmnk line by Hill angered Harrlman and that the matter of the Joint use of the Lewlston-Rlparln line has been brought Into the controversy and the line will not be used until the difficulty between the railroad mag nates Is settled.

A touching Incident of human In terest was witnessed by a few people at the O. R. & N. depot today when the westbound train. No. 1, was here. J. Teutscher, Jr., traveling age'nt for the Roys' and Girls' Aid society of Portland, was on tho train and step ped off to look about the depot while the train waited. While he was walling for the train to go a boy of about 19 years of age dressed In overalls and having every appearance of being a hard working, honest boy, stepped up and took Mr. Teutscher by the hand and spoke to him. "I remember you for you treated me right, gave me a good home and started me right when I was on the wrong track," said the boy with tears In his eyes. The boy was Herbert Mundell of Albee, this country, who was sent to the boys' and girls' aid society In the spring of 1903, after he had been In trouble at Albee. He was well treat ed and became a good, honest boy and has worked steadily since his release from the society three years ago. To the good .treatment given him by Mr. Teutscher and others connect ed with the society he attributes hi right start In life and Is grateful for the kindness shown him. While he had grown up to be n man and was not recognized by Teutscher, yet he remembered his benefactor and pub llely acknowledged the benefits he had received from this home provld ed for unfortunate children In Port land.

The Jury In the iibel suit for 100, 000 brought by L. E. Jones, formerly county auditor, against the Ohio State Journal, Columbus, brought hi a ver dict for the defendant. It Is reported by the Journal as a vindication of the right of the press fearlessly to expose misconduct In public office. In its charges the State Journal said:. "The conduct of the county au ditor's office during the past four years has been marked by greater dis regard of public Interest and bolder methods of personal graft than have ever obtained In any office In the his tory of Franklin county." ' , At the same time the Journal re vealed methods by which the Inven tories In the probate court of dead men's estates had been used to gain Information concerning omitted prop erty upon which tax inquisitors had been paid thousands of dollars. The inquisitor was not legally entitled to the percentage upon such property. In the prosecution of the suit for libel Mr. Jones sought to show that the State Journal's charges were not true. fkMit to the Penitentiary.
