It is hard to keep a good town
down, and Dallas is no exception to
that comforting rule. The latest up
ward tendency has just been mani
fested in an appeal to the city coun
cil for the appointment of that mu
.:! ...rr.iiiTiirr known as a city
market inspector. The yearning for
a duly authorized and acereuiu
ficial to serve in that capac.i
out pr originated in the civic Im
provement section of the "
. r.n- nd the request was
imade by Mrs. Ella J- Mettger. head
of the section. The matter -ferred
to the ordinance committee.
A request was also presented by
Mrs. Mettger. 'on behalf of the club,
asking for the passage of an ordin
ance prohibiting expectorating on
the sidewalks and in public PleM
The ordinance, to place the citj
marshal on a flat salary- ...

Under the provisions of a new
time card which wtent into effect Sun
day morning on the Southern Pacif
ic lines, including the Yamhill dl
vision, trains No. 74 and 75 now ar
rive and depart from the Union sta
tion in Portland, in place of Jeffer
son street as formerly, running via
the Osweso cut-off. The routing of
the trains from the Union station re
quires a slightly lengthened schedule

in Dallas 10 minutes later than under
tv... niA o..Viorhi1f. or at 7:30 D. m.
w.r .
Train No. 76 now leaves Dallas at l
2:15 instead of 2:30 and runs into the
Jefferson street station arriving there
at 6:45 p." ro. There is no change in
the time of the morning train out of
Portland which still departs from the
Jefferson street station.
Changes on Slain Line.
There are also several changes on
the main line, the principal one be
ing an arrangement whereby 13 hours
is saved by. Los . Angeles passengers
from Portland, a connection being
made with "The Owl" on the South
ern Pacific between San Francisco
and Los Angeles which eliminates
the night's lay over In San Francisco.
A motor car service between isew-
hpr nnd Fortland has also been in
augurated, the car leaving Newnerg
at 6:35 a. m. and 1:00 p. m., arriv
ing at Portland at 8:05 a. m. and
2:30 p, m. The car will leave i-on-
land at 9:45 a. m. and 6:60 p. m.,
arriving in Newberg at 11:15 a. m.
and 7:20 p. m.
The change of the two trains from
th. Jefferson to the Union station In
Portland will permit of much closer
connection between Dallas and points
on Puget Sound and the East, and
cannot fail to prove beneficial to this
city and add to the accommodation
of passengers from all towns on the
Tamhill division.
