GOITRE We cannot let pass the assort ion iitiidc in this water discussion that glacial water causes goitre. This is absolutely not the fact and there is no reason for not taking water from the main Tunialo creek while t'rater creek is running in it because of fear ol goitre. Goitre is caused by the absence of certain elements in the diet T.iktMn these elements and you CAD drinK all the glacial water flowing in the fas cades and you will not have goitre. If your diet does not include these elements you will get goitre just as soon by drinking water from the South Pork of the Tumalo as that from the main stream. If it does it makes no difference which you drink so far as the development of goitre is concerned. Ask your physician. Wn fJipplinRhsimo DENOUNCBp Jasper Jinx lias few defenders, he's the loneliest 61 birds; mind and body and suspenders, he's denounced, 4n burning words. People say he lias no morals .10 no church does he belong, and he's always mixed in quarrels, ami he's always in the wrong. T'other evening we were sitting, village gos sips, on the square, when we saw this Jasper flitting, with his furtive, guilty air. "Now." said one. "that darkness Chickens, Jasper goes his silent way. and some man will lose his chickens ere the breaking ol the day." "Or some willow's pig will vanish." said another, with a frown; "justice should arise and banish that base varlet front the town." Ot' good sense I've never boasted. 1 have larked it all my days, but when absent men are roasted. 1 say some thing in their praise. "Jasper's soul may be the deadest." I remarked, "the seas between, but his whiskers are the reddest and the finest I have seen. Though his course may need defending, though his conduct makes men cross, with such whiskers. I'm contending! no one is a total loss." On the morrow to my dwelling came old Jasper, single file, and he said. "I heard you telling that I'm not entirely vile. Oh. it made my life blood quicken! Words of praise are few and sweet : so I've brought a nice young chicken which 1 hope will prove a treat." Where he got it is a question that 1 did not think to spring, but I've had no indigestion since I ate it. neck and wing- trading, whether so Intended or not. proposed can he met hy a $rjiiu,iiuil .Almost all ol the items given in the bond issue involves proof of what I elfort to show where there will he a you are going to pay the company for ! shortage are already included in the its system, what you are going to tstimaie.

It w ill thus he seen that the "water board consisting of eight cltUens" which the majority of the council h.ie pledged themselves to appoint hs soon as the honds are approved will have authority only to manage the system when completed and will have no control whatever over the saute wtiile under construction, Un der the charter the construction of ttie water works system win lie under the direct control of the city council, i Ttie purpose for which the honds are asked is to provide a new water sup , ply from Tumalo creek the expense , of which Is estimated at at least $600.0uii to the money will all he , spent before our as yet phantom "water hoard" gets an opportunity to I function at all The voters .should not be deceived by this last minute ruse for If the hotnts are voted ttie present adminis tration will spend the money and that brings up the interesting inten tion as to why the city council Is so actively interested In getting this hond issue approved. Councilmen draw no salary and half page ads in daily newspapers are expensive Who is furnishing the money for all of the advertising spare which Is being used hy the administration In this campaign and why are they putting up the money? This advertising ex- i it-, every way a success and there is not one single sound argument against this issue. 9. Even if this election fails, the i water question for lletnl wilt not have been settled. Ninety-five p.-r cent of the cities and towns of the t'nited States have had water problems mor or less similar to ours an t have com' against the city so we must take It that the necessary funds are coming from private pockets Whose poclf ots are they In this same signed statemeitt the signers go blandly forward and cx- tl!,i mUmt Ihn, ulll ,.,,,1 ulll n.,1 litor of The Bulletin he assumes i j ,,..-.' ...h , get for your bonds.

' COMMUNICATIONS MOBK ON THE BONDS To the Editor: The people of Bend are called upon ti. vole tomorrow upon the important question of voting to authorize the Issuance of $60o.0(ifl of honds or such part of that as may be found necessary for the acquiring of a mu nicipal water system with a pure wa ter supply. The people should have the facts In the case in order to vote Intelli gently and in summing up the whole situation, the principal points arc "these: 1. Our present water supply is full oT filth and sewage while Tumalo vater is pure without all the drugs at.d dope which are in themselves In- ' Jrrious. 2.
