- Impure Water,
The health of every resident of Con
don who drinkaclty water lain danger
because ol the Impurity of that water.
Strange statement, that, to be made
of a town which has always bnaated, and
with good reason, of the absolute purity
of her municipal water supply.
But It'a true.
Since the recent thaw began the water
from the city mains has taken on a red
dish yellow tinge and a flavor like unto
the drainage from a barn yard. When
boiled it emit an odor not pleasing
to the nostrila.
And the cause is not far to seek.
A casual inspection of the city wells,
specially the one nearest the tank, re
veals the fact that no precautions havel
been taken to preserve tbe purity ol tbe
.water supply, , , ;.
A hole baa been excavated around the
mouth of the upper well, for some pur
pose, into which has been dumped a
quantity Of fresh horse manure, presum
ably to keep the frost Away from the
pump. Into this hole the surface water
finds ita way and, after filtering through
the manure, flows into the well.
It ia not a nice subject to write about
or talk about or to even think about. .It
ia simply disgusting and nauseating, but
it amounts to almost criminal negligence
on the part of somebody.
The Globb does not assume to place
the responsibility for this condition of
the oity'e water supply on any person.
That Is not its business. But it is tbe
business of a newspaper to point out
auch conditions, when they exist, that
' the public may be Informed. It is tbe
public's business. : .
And it is tbe business and the duty of
our city officials to investigate this mat
ter and to adopt prompt and vigorous
measures to correct thia evil which
threatens the health of the town and
they should lose no time in getting to
work.
The well is nolluted. so is the water
in the tank. Both should be thoroughly
cleansed. Typhoid gemis lurk in iui

Caledonian Concert.
iiie M'ou n c'tiirpri given iHki t'ri'iHv
evening In Armory ball wa a iur-PM.
It wna more, It easily standi at the
head of all similar events ever given lu
Eastern Oregon. -
The town began to Oil with people
from tbe surrounding country at noon
and by dark the crowd was almoat aa
dense ai at an ordinary Fourth of July
The door of the hall were opened at
7:15 and In a brief time the room was
packed with the largest crowd of human
ity ever gathered under one roof in Con
dun. The program wai lengthy one
lusting about two hours, but It wai en
tertaining and the time passed quickly
with the audience,
At 8:00 o'clock, sharp, Worthy Chief
J. M. Cameron, who presided, Judge
Cameron, of Portland, tbe speaker of the
evening, and Worthy Chief Rettle, of
tbe Fossil Club, took tbelr places on tbe
platform.
After an Instrumental selection by lo
cal talent, Chief Cameron In a few well
chosen remarks bid the audience wel
come and Introduced the speaker of the
evening. Judge Cameron responded
briefly, but In a pleasing manner and
the program, consisting of Scotch longs
and, dance, recitation, and vocal and
Instrumental selection! by local talent
waa rendered. i
The real feature of the evening be
cause it wa something now to a Condon
audience -was the Scotch dancing, which
was executed by Mice Itoale Forbes,
Mysle Sharp, and Martha Campbell and
Messrs. Fori, Ruddoman, Sharp and
Mi-Arthur, all of Portland. These dan
cer are said to be among the best In
tbelr class on the Pacific coast. They
were all dressed in the regulation High
land costume and their work called for
many encores. Jamie Moon, also of
Portland, the only original bagpipe man
thla far west, was also on hands and fur
nished music for the dancers and his
music was highly appreciated. It was
also something new to tbe average Con-
doulte. Excellent vocal and instrument
ki music by Mesdames Stephenson, Bar
ker, Crorfiuld, lU'lniicher nd Mlssea
Lilla and Florence Clarke, Belle Wilson
and Messrs. Clarke, Fraxer and Wilson
Interspersed the program and also called
ur many encores.
Excellent! delivered recitations were
rendered by Mra. F. M. Filter, of Condon
Miss Susie McFarlane ol Fossil, Mis
Forbea, of Portland, and L. W. Darling
of Condon. Mr Clark, of near Condon
also entertained tbe audience with a
song, and upon being recalled recited the
well known selection "Roger and I."
The recitation was really well delivered
and it is to be regretted that the order
waa not better during its delivery. At
tbe conclusion of tbe program Chief Ret
tle of the Fossil Club was introduced and
offered a few well chosen remarks to the
Caledonians, closing with a tribute to
tbe memory of Robert Burns, that poet
who is so dear to the memory of every
Scot.
Tbe floor was then cleared for dancing
and a free social bop, which lasted until
5:30 was enjoyed by all who so desired.
Excellent suppers were served at mid
night at the Condon hotel and Rinehart's
restaurant. Saturday was a gala day.
The Scotch vlsilora from Portland and
other points were entertained iu the true
Condon fashion. Another dance in the
hall Saturday evening wound up tbe
season of merry making. Tbe Portland
parties left for home Sunday morning
and by Sunday afternoon quiet reigned
supreme. ,
George Martin and Stewart Campbell
who accompanied the Scotch delegation
to Arlington Suuday, returned Tuesday.
They report having bud a fine trip. A
two hour atop was made at Clem, where
Piiwr Moon unlimbered hia pipes and
an impromptu Sunuert and dance was
given. A warm invitation was extended
the party to stop at Olex and give a con
cert but time would not permit. Tbe
Portland people were delighted with
their outing and will no doubt long re
member their visit to Gilliam county and
the royal entertainment accorded them
by their bunch-grass countrymen.

Judge Had Tootnache.
"Municipal Judge Cameron returned
this morning Irom Condon where he at
tended a meeting of tbe Ctiledonian
Club. Judge Cameron declares that the
wether up there is as cold as charity
and the snow Is 18 Inches deep." Tele
gram. '
When the judge left Condon he had a
howling toothache. This may account
for the gloomy view he takes of the glo
riously salubrious climate of grand old
Gilliam county.
