The legislature spent 60 days stiivinj; to pass good roads laws and left a very bungling Job. The fault thoiiarh was not entirely with the leg iiilature. Friends of good roads themselves are sorely divided and it iv.j-s this variance of opinion as to what should be done that eaus jd ail j the trVmble. There are evidences jthat these differences of sentiment still exist and it might be as hard to secure legislation now as it was last winter.

In many ways the mayor of Pen dleton has more arduous work to do i than has the county judge. The city does not spend as much money as does the county, it is true. Yet there Is more administrative work to do and often the problems confronting the mayor are more perplexing than those confronting the judge. Th mayor Is responsible for the enforcement of -CERTAIX THE FI LL FACTS. There appear to be wonderful dif-! ferenees of opinion with reference to the amount and the quality of the wa ter at Thorn Hollow. Members of the council who recently visited the place predict there will not be enough water for the city. They declare the amount of water now running is in sufficient for a town of this size. Yet Chairman Brown of the water commission, who has followed the de- ju,ih:jh nun very closely is optim istic over the outlook. He says the development work is bringing favor able results and he looks for an abund ance of water. He is also emphatic in his declaration that the water will all be mountain spring water not .seepage water from the river. He de clares It is easy to tell where the wa ter comes from and that people should withhold Judgment until th water commission has had a full opportunity to test out the spring. Whether or not there, will be plenty of water in the Thorn Hollow and adjacent springs is a question of fact. Surely it will be possible to arrive at the facts within a short time. There are ways of accurately measur ing the flow of streams and f-.ers ar-. ways of testing the quality of a water aurr'"y. It should not be hard to da- often Involves much headache. Why should people expect the head of the city government to work for nothing? Would it not be better to him a reasonable compensation and then expect him to devote closer attention to his duties. Xo one ob jects to paying the county "judge a salary and people would not think of asking the county judge to serve without pay. j pay A PLACE FOli EFFICIENCY. The recent grand Jury severely criticised the management of the poor farm and past grand juries have al so found objections to the way af fairs are handled out there. From appearances there !s need of a change in management and methods. The grand jurors are mostly farmers and when they say a farm is poorly handled It is safe to say they under stand what they are talking about. It is not necessary that the poor farm should be poorly managed. On the contrary it should be a model of eco nomy and efficiency. If the man in charge does not run things satisfac torily then the course is simple get some one who will. The county court has the whole world to choose from. DISTRESSED EUROPE. Europe is a boiling caldrom just at present. France and Germany appear on the verge of war. Great Britain Is Just recovering from a fearful strike; fri Vienna the people are rioting be cause of the high cost of living; in I Russia the prime minister' has been Man is the lord of the land and tho moon is the queen of the sea. Put the marshes huve neither lord nor queen, me fair wide marsh es are free. Their blossoms flaunt in the wind, which sows what the frost doth reap. And all the marsh is astir with " life that never knows sleep. Swallows twitter and dart, while in the sun-glad weather, Grasses and rushes and rippling reeds dance down the wind together. Oh, the idle, sunny marshes so jubi lant and free! The shimmering, singing marshes, that neither are land nor sea! Sparkle of Myriad fire-flles, frogs that twang through the night. Whirling of water-beetles on pools where the moon shies white; A "tir of things in the darkness, lurk ing where shadows abide. Things that are hungry and stealthy, things that raven and hide. The water-rat gnaws at the roots and the night-heron cries for his prey, Till the dawn-wina sighs in the reeds, and the marsh-wren heralds the day. Sound and movement always life is so eager and free. In the whispering starlit marshes that neither are land nor sea. Then summer ends in the marshes and all their singing Is done: Gone is the flashing of wings, and the glancing of fire-flies gone, Only the wind sighs on, through the rushes, withered and sere, Earth yields harvest, and so does the sea; but none reaps harvest here. L'ntasked untaxed for (heir treas ure, unfurrowed by share or keel. The marshes are left alone, while the chill gray sea-mists steal Over th stiffening reed-beds the clinging mists from the strand, Veiling the sorrowful marshes that neither, were sea nor land.

"Tee, I saw you, though you thought your good act was unnoticed," pursued the kindly gentleman. "I saw you give that big. rosy-cheeked apple to' your pale-faced friend, arid I observed by your cheerful manner that you re joiced in your generous act."

For the present the request of Mr. Brown that people w'thhold Judg ment and give the water board a change to finish their work is very reasonable The development work is rot costing mur.h money critics to the- contrary notwithstanding and the Loara is justified In going to rea.son aM! .T;'-nse r this matter.

The subject has not yet been brought before the council by the wa ter commission. Members of the board say they won't ask the coun cil to sell the 520 0.00 J bond issue un til they ap; first able to demonstrate that an abundance of water may be bad. It is a very reasonable position to take. .'3t the water board complete its development work and then pass Judgment pit the Thorn Hollow pro ject. The full facts regarding the quantity and the quality of the wa tr should be ascertained before a decision is made. assassinated; a full grown revolution has Just been sprung in Spain and the dethroned Manuel is plotting to re gain the crown of Portugal. The af fliction seems to be general. The harvester trust is going to re organize so as to be within the law. But the important question is will the reorganization" bring more ser vicable machinery or any lowering of prices. Tomfoolery will not work for ever. What the people want is results. At least there is one question up or. which ail people agree the Round-Up was a humdinger. TIIE LAFFERTY INCIDENT, York b York Chinese Doctors CAN POSITIVELY CURE YOU Those who are suffering from dis eases which many other doctors have pronounced incurable, now have re lief in sight. York & York, the fam ous Chinese doctors, are now located in Walla Walla. These men, after years of study and research in China, were granted diplomas by the Emper or, to pursue their practice of medi cine. For centuries the Chinese have been acknowledged leaders In the practice of medicine, and many wealthy peo ple annually go to that country In search of relief for ailments which doctors of this country have pro nounced incapable of permanent cure. York & York use nothing but pcver fui roots and herbs of demonstrated medical value. These roots and herbs act gently on the system In direct contrast to medicines usually given. They can be consulted without cost. Those residing out of the city can send for symptom blanks and a free diagnosis will be given. YORK A YORK MEDICINE CO., 210 W. Main St, Walla Walla. Wn.

The Portland Oregonian gives space today to a long explanation by Con gressman Lafferty of an Incident in his Washington career that has re cently found publicity m one or more newspapers. It Is not agreeable to .The Oregonian to be obliged to notice or discuss suoh an affair. The facts, or alleged facts, had been known in this office for some time; but since they have involved the name of a sensitive and reputable young woman in unsought and undeserved notoriety and since, bes.des, publicity savoring of personal scandal except for grave reason, would probably have Impaired the usefulness and dignity of a repre sentative of the state of Oregon, the article was withheld The impression has been gaining ground recently that the Second Con gressional District had made a mis take in electing Mr. Lafferty to con gress; and that Impression will not be relieved either by exposure of this painful affair or by Mr. Lafferty'a ex traordlnary explanation.
