SPRINKLING THE STREETS
SHOULD NOT BE DELAYED
COMPLAINTS ALREADY KFJNtt
HEARD FROM RESIDENTS
OVER THE DUST.
Complaints are being made partic
ularly by parties on the South Hill
and upon the North Hill that street
sprinkling Is being too long delayed
this year. In many places the streets
-arc very dusty and passing autos make
dust rteeMn clouds.
The following letter upon the sub
Ject has) been received by the East
Oregon from W. M. Blakely.
Editor East Oregonlan: I am not
a chronic kicker, but I want to call
attention to the condition of South
Main street between Railroad and
High. We wers told last year that
there was a scarcity of water which
at times was true. We bonded the
city laM year to get more-and better
water. No" we of tne South Main
street ask our water committee to do
something for Us In the way of
sprinkling. Hoping this will meet
with favor. W. M. BLAKELY.

JUNIOR HIGH
ADVOCATED
RELIEVE
With the attendance at the public
,'hnola nf Pendleton Increasing at
such a rate as to make an additional
building Imperative tn the near fu
ture the subject of a Junior high
school Is being frequently discussed
by members of the school board and
at the various parent-teachers' meet
ings. A Junior high school Is an -mterme
dlate school between the grade
schools and the high school. It 1
used to accommodate the seventh,
eighth and ninth grades and will
therefore serve to relieve congestion
In the ward schools and In the reg
ular high school.
It Is urged ln behalf of the Junior
high school plan that It l economy
and la also very beneficial from an
educational standpoint. The plan Is
extensively follewed In the east and
several northwest towns have taken
tip the plan, among them being Lew
Iston, Idaho, and McMlnnvllle, Ore
gon. Such a school was planned for
Walls, Walla and would have been
built had not the high school bonds
been voted down.
IAntlcn Favosa Plan.
Superintendent J. S. Landers Is an
advocate of the Junior high school
plan and at a meeting of the Haw
thorns school Parent-Teachers' asso
ciation last Friday evening gave an
extended talk upon the subject
In his discussion ot the subject Fri
day evening Superintendent Landers
said In part:
At the present time, all the rooms
of the grade schools In the city are
filled, and over three hundred stu
dents are enrolled In the high school.
If the school population should In
crease during the coming year as It
has in the past two years, the district
will be under the necessity of provid
ing additional school facilities to ac
comodate the children of the commu
nity. In fact, the school board has
already begun the consideration of
the construction ot a new school

PORTAGE ROAD AT OELIIO WAS
X)NSIDERAI1LE FACTOR
IX REDUCTIONS.
Some facts as to what the Improve
ment of the Columbia river has
meant In the way of freight rate re
ductions In the past are contained In
an Interesting story by Marshall N.
Dana In the Sunday Journal. Re
garding the effects of the Cascade ca
nal and locks of the portage road at
Cecllo. the story says:
Unquestionably the portage rail
way laved consumers and shippers
more through reduction of freight
rates than they ever realised or ap
preciated. Cascades canal and locks
were opened In 189. The railroad
then charged 7 l-l cents a hundred
weight to carry salt in carload lots
to The Dalles, and 87 1-2 cents
hundredweight to Umatilla, 90 miles
further. The rate per hundredweight
in less than carload lota was 16 cents
to The Dalles and 60 cents to Umatli
lar The same disparity applied In the
shipment of sugar, canned goods,
loose wool and other commodities.
After the portage railway was opened
the rate on salt to Umatilla was re
duced from 27 1-2 cents to 21 cents
hundredweight, sugar from 5 1 cents to
35 cents, canned goods from 51 cents
to 36 cents, grain from IS cents to
13 1-4 cents.

building to meet the constantly grow
ing population of the city.
Should It become necessary to pro
vide a new building, as Is expected
at the present time, It Is' well to con
sider carefully what kind of a build
Ing will best meet the needs. Anoth
er ward school would only provide ac
comodations for a few years for the
growth in the grades. It would not
meet the demands made by growth In
the high school. Continued increase
In the high school for two years, sim
ilar to that of the past year, will
overfill the present building. Econ
omy suggests the planning of a build
ing which will relieve both the high
school and the grades. A building
suitable to accommodate a Junior
high school fulfills this requirement-
A Junior high school Is an organ
isation Including three classes or
years' work, consisting of the two
upper grades of the grammar school,
and the first year of the high school,
that la the Seventh, eighth and ninth
grades If such a central school were
established in Pendleton, It would
draw the seventh and eighth grades
from each of the ward schools, thus
taking from them from 20 per cent
to 25 per cent of their enrollment.
This would be equivalent to a six
room school for the grades. Then,
the present buildings would be able
to accommodate the grades for some.
years. This Junior high school would'
also take the freshman class, always
numerically the largest class, from
the high school building, thus reliev
ing It from 25 per cent to 25 per
cent of Its enrollment. Thus, the
one school takes the place ot a new
grade school and an addition to tho
high school.
The principal advantage arising
from the Junior high school Is not In
the relief or enrollment offered to
the grade and high school buildings.

Boylen & Stephens
Sell Coarse Wool
at Price of 25 Cts.
OREGOX MARKET SLOW OWING
TO LACK OF COMPETITIVE
BUYERS.
me sale of the Boylen & Stephens
coarse wool to Mr. Livingstone, rep
resenting the American Woolen Com
pany, at a price of 25 cents per
pound, constitutes the first Umatilla
county wool sale of the season.
At Arlington the firm of Wheel
house & Horst has sold their coarse
wool to the scouring mill at The
Dalles for a price of 2 cents per
pound.
These sales while at prices far
above last year's prices are not con
sidered strong In view of the wool sit
uation. It Is complained by sheep
men that only one buyer is actually
In the field, Mr. Livingstone, and
hence there is no competition under
way at present.
In a special advice the Portland
Wool Warehouse company says:
The only weak spot ln the world
today on wools Is located around
Portland and the Pacific northwest
and our edc' from the east denote
a quiet market but a very strong one,
tna'and dealers who have sold the cheap
foreign wools that they purchased a
while back, are looking around try
ing to duplicate their purchases
abroad and find themselves ln the po
sition of a man who sells cheaper
than he can buy.
Our advices from every wool grow
er In the state denote that what wool
is sold is bringing extremely good
prices, and if the price asked is not
paid, the wool Is held. There are no
sales that we know of outside of Ore
gon and Washington that denote any
thing less than 20c for fine wool, or
70c for clean. Even southern Cali
fornia, which produces a wool ln the
spring of only seven months' growth,
averaged better than 20 cents, and Is
not a strictly A-l wool, as It generally
has to be carbonized on account of
the burrs. One large mill that Is buy
Ing fine wool In Oregon and Wash-

be readily seen that tne pncee paiu
are not based on actual values In the
eastern markets.
The bugaboo about foreign woou
arriving is getting rather old, as
these wools have been coming In for
the past 50 years In Just as large
quantltlea, and we presume that they
will be coming In for 60 years more
The low prices paid out here are for
the dealers, and the mills intend to
pay the same price for fine wool,
namely, 72c clean, and these wools
have been bought here for 54c and
55c clean, and show a beautiul profit
for somebody.

ALLIED LINES ARE
HOLDING AGAINST
THE GERMAN DRIVE
Teutons Abandon Lizerne Before Attack of the
Belgians, the Latter Losing Heavily-Every
Piece of Available Artillery is Brought up by
Allies and Battle is Raging Unabated-Canadians
Forced to Retire From St. Julian.
LONDON, April 27. Under
the heavy guns of the enemy, accompanied by a fierce rifle fire,
and over all hanging the deadly fumes of the German asphyxi
ating bombs, the fighting in Flanders, in a supreme attempt of
the Germans to break the allied line, continues today without
a sign of diminution.
The Belgians have recaptured the village of Lizerne on the
main line of the German advance according to an announce
ment issued from the press bureau. The Belgian losses were
admitted to be extremely heavy but the Germans were also
said to have suffered greatly and were finally repulsed.
That fighting of the greatest violence has broken out at all
points through Flanders was indicated by the press bureau an
nouncement. Along a portion of the line held by the Canadians and the
British, a general slackening in the fighting was reported in
early dispatches but this was due to the fact both sides had
turned attention to the redistribution of troops and reinforcing
the present lines.
It developed today that the rejoicing in London over the re
capture of St. Julian by the Canadians was premature. The
war office announced that St. Julian was retaken last night.
Today it wa3 learned that the Canadians did recapture St. Ju
lian but were forced later to withdraw closer to Ypres, being
unable to maintain their position without enormous sacrifices.
GASES CAUSE HAVOC
PARIS, April 27. Stories of the terrible effects of the as
phyxiating gases used by the Germans in their attacks in the
vicinity of Ypres have been brought here by wounded soldiers
arriving from the front Extreme cruelty is charged against
the Germans who are alleged to have driven their bayonets
through French soldiers rendered helpless by the deadly gases.
As the fumes swept over the front trenches, French soldiers
were rendered unconscious and although not wounded fell in
their tracks. The Germans then leaped forward and without?
opposition occupied the trenches, bayoneting the Frenchmen
where they lay, according to the stories told here.
