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.

Homo Thanks Instructor.
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.

RIGHT TO CRITICISE.
Jury Upholds' Exposure hy Press of
Misconduct In Office.
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.
William Dodge, who was recently
discharged from the regular army, has
been sent to the state penitentiary
from Walla Walla on a sentence of
from one to five years for steal inor a
pawn ticket with which he obtained a

Brown owns large herds of cattle,
which graze In both Washington and

LABOR COMMISSIONER
ARRESTS COXTRACTOR.
C. P. Hubbard Says Eight-Hour Law
Is Violated on Public Work Here.
A warrant for the arrest of Theo
dore Welsberger, was sworn out today
by State Labor Commissioner C. F.
Hubbard on the evidence of local
witnesses, charging Mr. Welsberger
with violation of the state eight-hour
labor law In working men a longer
time each day on public work, says
the North Yakima Republic. The
case will be heard In a day or two In
a Justice court.
Mr. Hubbard came to North Yaki
ma as a result of a number of letters
written to him from this city com
plaining that various contractors are
working their men a longer period
dally than allowed by law. He says
that he has procured evidence of a
number of violations of the law and
the case to be brought Is but one of
a number to follow. The minimum
fine on conviction Is 825 but the limit
of cases against any individual Is
large as each workman may bring a
case for each day.
Mr. Hubbard says the law has been
upheld In many counties and by the
supreme court and Is, therefore, estab.
Itshed.
