GROCERIES ARE AN ABSOLUTE
necessity to every human being.
From the day you enter the world
until the day you leave it you have
to patronize, directly or indirectly, some
grocery store. You have to eat to keep
alive. Among the earliest lessons taught
in life is a regard for your diet, by select
ing only fresh and wholesome food, and a
regard for your purse by practicing the well
established rules of economy. We can sell
you fresher and better goods and more of
them for cash than you can buy elsewhere
on open account. Look over our stock,
get our prices, and be convinced.

Include men of national reputation
All the different subjects pertaining
to irrigation will be dscussed and the
meeting promises to.be one of great
profit, especially to residents of the
Mllton-Freewater and Hermistorf
Echo countries.
This will be Baker City's first
state meeting and according to the
papers of that city an effort will be
made to make such a success of the
affair that the city will be In line for
other state meetings. It is therefore
certain tha the best accommodations
will be available for all who may de
sire o attend and the entertainment
afforded will be of the best possible.
"Pendleton and Umatilla county
should send a large delegation to the
state irrigation convention which
meets in Baker City, November 25
ani 26," said Judge Lowell this
morning. "This question of irriga
tion is one of vital importance to the
whole of eastern Oregon and of Uma
tilla county in particular."
Men from the east and west ends
of the county as well as from Pen- J
dleton itself have taken a great In- ,
terest in the state association ever
since its formation and now that the
meeting Is to be held so close to home
this year it will no doubt be attend
ed by a very large representation from
this part of the state.
Baker City people are already mak
ing plans for a big meeting and arej
preparing to royally entertain the'
large crowds of visitors which they .
expect to have during the two days
of the convention. j
In addition to the Oregon people In,
attendance there will be many peo-j

"Why does the public persist In
in using the side entrance to this
building, instead of the front en
trance?" asked Judge S. A. Lowell as
he stood In the corridors of the court
house last evening, watching the
string of people going in and out of
the side entrance from Court street
while the front entrance from Col
lege street, remained unused.
"I suppose the first man that en
tered the building after the doors
were thrown open," continued the
Judge In a meditative strain, "must
have entered from the Court street
side and ever since that time, the
general public like a band of s'p,
has continued to use the Court street
entrance."
It Is a fact that the front or main
entrance to the court house Is on the
College street side and yet not one
person In 50 of all the thousands who
have occasion to visit the building,
go in or out by the main entrance.
The real front hall Is much wider than
either of the side halls and before the
building was remodeled two stair
ways led up to the second floor direct
ly from the main hallway, but neith
er of these facts have had any efect
on the public.
SiMVlal Meeting of Ordinance Com
mittee of City Administration Ijtwt
Evening Considers Measures to Be
Reported Tonight Piiro Milk and
Near Beer Ordinances nnd Pro
hibitory Measure Are Considered by
Solon.
Though the ordinance committee,
iho ni.ivor and several members of
the council wrestled for several hours
last evening with the ordinances
which are to be reported upon at the
meeting tonight, no definite conclu
sions were reached. It is therefore
probable that though most of these
will be acted upon tonight It will not
be known what report the commit
tee will make until a very few min
utes before It Is handed In.
Tonight's meeting therefore prom
ises to be a very Interesting and Im
portant one.
Last night's meeting of the ordi
nance committee was held In the of
fice of City Attorney Raley and was
called by Chairman Hinkle for the
purpose of discussing the prohibition
ordinance, the one to license near
beer jaints and the milk ordinance.
All of these measures have been
the cause of much hard work and
work for the committee and the
council as a whole. Since these ordi
nances were Introduced many new
phases have developed and difficult
problems have arisen to be solved.
All existing ordinances tending to
regulate saloons and kindred places
are based on a license provision. The
prohibition law. however, knocked
this nil out and It now becomes ne
cessary to establish a new basis for
the regulation of the "near beer"
Joints.
Th problem presented by the ten
dency of minors to frequent these
places Is also a difficult one for
though they are supposed to be clean
and perfectly proper places for eith
er children or women, the facts do
not hour out the sunositlon. The card
i rooms nnd billiard halls also present
similar problems.
It Is understood, however, that

while the committee did not deel

will rpeommend to the council th

censing of near beer Joints be tabled
and that the one prohibiting the sale
of liquors be passed. If this is the
recommendation main and If it Is ac
cepted by the council. It will tend to
simplify matters considerably.

I IJAME THEIR LICENSE
BIT FORCiET TO MARRY
Wallace, Idaho, Sept. 23 Investi
gation begun by the county auditor
to learn why In a large number of
cases marriage licenses Issued In Sho
shone rounty were not returned,
brings to light a condition which may
result In embarrassment for a good
many people.
For several months past this offi
cial has been granting marriage li
censes to people of foreign birth, who
seemed much at sea regarding the
pecessnry steps to take in compliance
with the law. When a number of
cases hod accumulated In which the
proper returns on the licenses were
not made, the auditor began to look
the matter up.
In one Instance the home of a man
who secured a license some time ago
was visited nnd the license, neatly
framed, was found hanging on the
wall. So far as could be learned, no
marriage ceremony had been per
formed. There are Instances which lead the
officials to believe many of the miss
ing certificates may be accounted for
In this way. It Is suspected that
some of the foreign population be
lieved that securing the certificate was
all that was necessary In order to be
come married and that a number of
cases will be found 9 couples living
together as man and wife In blissful
Ignorance of violating the laws of
their adopted land.
Attorney R. J. Slater teturned this
morning from Portland, where he
had been on business before the fed
eral court.
Tonight the famous dairy regulat
ing ordinance will come up for final
consideration by the city council and
If current rumors are true there may
be some Interesting developments
connected therewith.
Ever since the ordinance was pro
posed last summer it has met with
more or less opposition from the In
terests affected. But until today the
measure was apparently In line for
passage provided a few changes were
made therein.
But today It Is rumored that the
enemies of the movement mny down
the ordinance tonight and this report
has roused City Physician Cole and
Dr. S. W. McClure who are Jointly
responsible for the measure. This
morning both Intimated that they
will be present at the meeting tonight
and would like to know the real
source and the nature of the opposi
tion to the ordinance.
The physicians of the city, ns far
as Is known, at least, are a unit In
favor of the ordinance anil most of
them express themselves radically
unon the subject. A few of them
were seen bv the East Oregonlan to
dav and since the dairy ordinance Is
a hygienic subject their views will be
of Interest:
"I have not given this ordinance
particular thought, but I thoroughly
believe that the sanitary conditions
of the dairies should be Inspected,"
declared Dr. C. J. Smith. "Several
vears ago when I myself was city
health officer, I advised then that
ar. Inspection of the dairies should
bt made."
Dr. D. J. McFaul likewise declared
himself as favorable to the passage
or the ordinance. He says It Is now
the concensus of opinion among
medical men that bovine tuberculo
sis Is transmissible and that this be
Ing the case dairy cows should be
inspected for tuberculosis.
"The Inspection of the dairies
would be a good thing for the con
sumers and for the dairymen too,"
said Dr. H. S. C.arfleld. Whether tu
berculosis may be transmitted from
cows to humans or not people do not
want their children to bp drinking
milk from Infected cows."
"The ordinance should be passed
by all means." declared Dr. L. K.
Blakeslee. "The fact that it may
work a little hardship upon a few
dairymen should not block the ordi
nance. Of course a dairyman would
hate to lose a cow, but because he
has a few dollars Invested that does
not give him a right to sell milk from
tubercular animals."
Protect the Babies.
That he now has two cases where
in Infants have been Infected with
tuberculosis from drinking cow's
milk Is declared by Dr. W. O. Cole,
father of the pending ordinance. Dr.
Cole Is thoroughly emhued with the
Idea that the bovine disease Is trans,
missible and he cites actual cases to
back up the theory. Both the babies
now under treatment were bottle
raised, he says, and could not have
been Infected from any other source.
It Is partly due to his experience
with these cases that the doctor Is
such an ardent advocate of testing
the dairy cows.

PORTLAND SHIPS WHEAT
SECOND TO XEW YOHK.
Portland retains her position ns
the second greatest wheat shipping
renter In the United States, accord
ing' to a bulletin of statistics which
hns Just been Issued by the depart
ment of commerce nnd labor. New
York, occupying first place, Is only
2,000,000 bushels In the lend for the
eight months of the cerenl year clos
ing with August. The metropolis of
the Empire State exported 9.849,456
bushels, as against 7,854,980 bushels
set afloat at Portland.
Philadelphia comes third on the list
with a shipment of 7.09.1.335 bush
els, and Baltimore fourth with 6.204.
175 bushels. The combined ports of
Puget sound forwarded 7,901,364
bushels during the eight months.
This Is only about 50,00rt more bush
els than were exported front Portland
nlone. When the government com
piles the statistics for the nlno
months of the cereal yenr ending
with September It will be found that
the wheat exports from the Willam
ette river metropolis will be about
1,000.000 bushels greater thn.n the
shipments from the combined porfs
of western Washington. So far this
month the Rose City Is fully that
much in the lead of her several
northern competitors.
From the United States the wheat
exports for the eight months totaled
54.082.751 bushels of wheat valued nt
f ."3.432.29S. while the flour ship
ments comprised 8,274.606 barrels,
having n value of $38,668,340. The
value of the foodstuffs sent from the
country Is placed at $ 1 13.561. 1 50.

It was thus that Merchant Police
man Howard of Spokane, undertook
to express the depth of his devotion
for May Reed, of whom, he is said to
have been so deeply enamored that
when she refused positively to marry
him he Is alleged soundly to have
thrashed her. The line Indicating that
It wns a case of life or death with
Howard Is nn extract from one of the
letters to her which will be Introduc
ed when the case comes on for retrlnl.
says a Spokane dispatch.
The court continued the case, ex
pressing the belief that It was not
mandatory upon him to grant the mo.
tlon for n change of venue.
The defendant alleges that she was
employed ns Howard's housekeeper at
his home on Gartlen nvenue when the
alleged assault and battery occurred.
