MAYOR iN SAD PREDICAMENT.
Mayor Hartwig finds himself in a
truly lamentable situation, lie was
supported and his election was duo to
the influence of a certain crowd of yti
zens whose chief effort has been to
block the installation of a municipal
water system bringing pure drinkin
water into this city, lie is under obli
gations to those men and one of th
heaviest obligations is to remove Judge
A. J. Derby, who has so ably looked
after the legal affairs of the city dur
ing the past two years, from his posi
tion as corporation counsel. Ju
Derby has done the city's legal work
under a contract from the council ami
has been in charge of the law Imai nut
preparatory to the bringing in of pure
water from the City Spring.
The citizens of the city have nurm r
ous times bv their ballot declared
themselvea in favor of the municipal
water system and many of them voted
for Mr. Hartwig for Mayor bceiiiiM
they believed that he intended to carry
out their wishes in the matter. Tin
members of the city council realize
that Judge Derby, on account of his
satisfactory services and his familiar
ity with the city's largest present un
dertaking, the installation of the water
system, is best fitted to continue as
the legal advisor of the city and they
insist on his retention. Judge Derby
was not city attorney last year by
appointment from ex-Mayor McDonald
but he was working for the city under
a contract. The council may employ
any legal counsel it sees lit and it is
not under obligation to accept any
lawyer the Mayor appoints if that law
yer is not the man best fitted to do the
city's legal work.
The appointment by Mayor Hartwig
of a second attorney as City Attorney
bears out the belief of many citizens
that his principal object is to displace
Judge Derby with any other lawyer
regardless of the city's best Interests.
The Mayor's lateft appointee has said
that Judge Derby is the logical man to
look after the legal affairs of the city.
An open letter to the citizens of the
city has been published by the Mayor
in which he speaks of "illegal assess
ments" made by the city. The courts
have yet to decide whether the assess
ments were legal or illegal. The
Mayor had presumed to take up the
defense of the city in this particular
case until the council wisely employed
Judge Derby to look after the inter
ests of the taxpayers at large. Mayor
Hartwig is the head of the city admin
istration and wanted to defend the city
in a case in which he makes bold to
state before the court has heard the
case that the city's position is untena
ble.
l no provision or the city charter re
quiring the approval of a majority of
the council for tho Mayor's appoint
ments safeguards the city against just
such a situation as now exists. The
displacement of Judge Derby as the
city's legal advisor would greatly delay
and hamper the council in the improve
ments which are being made greatly to
the benefit of the city. Ilefore the
advent of Mayor Hartwig the city was
getting along very well without, an
attorney appointed by the Mayor anil
the council is wholly within its rights
in employing legal counsel.
Again, we say, as at the opening,
that the Mayor is in a pitiable plight.
Ilo is deserving of sympathy. How
ever, he is in the same unfortunate
position of not being able to "deliver
the goods" as the man in ihe wheat
pit who agrees to "come across" with
something he has not a-i yet "cor
nered." "Selling short" in polities is
just as dangerous a proceeding as
"selling short" in the stock market.
WHY NOT IN 111)01) KlYlili?
The committee on appropriations re
turned the general civil appropriation
bill to the national house of represent
atives last week calling for the ex
penditure of more than one hundred
and forty millions. Oregon received a
little share of the government pie,
most of which will be invested in
Federal buildings about the state.
Portland received a half million fur a
site. Albany was awarded $-111,000 for
a building. The Dalles, Pendleton and
Medford received $lli,00i, $:iri,(Hiii and
2t, 000 respectively with which Input
chase sites and start buildings. Roso
burg will get $10,00(1 for a site.
Hood Kiver, which is known better
throughout the country than any of
these towns, should be getting alter a
federal structure. The population here
is not quite asJarge as some of thorn
but the local pnst-ollice is doing the
business to warrant a building. The
local receipts ran more than if'JO.oon
last year. The Dalles was hut a few
hundred dollars ahead. Albany dues
the same business in its ollice which is
done here and Pendleton is only slightly
in advance. Medford does a larger
business but it is probable the postal
receipts in Koseburg will total what
they will in Hood Uiver.
Hood Kiver can give the business and
it would be pretty tine to have a neat
little building in the village for which
Uncle Sain would be the janitor.
A suggestion comes from Folk
County that people of the whole state
might adopt with profit. A family
recently came there from (he Fast,
bought a farm and intended to live
there permanent ly. After a time they
sold their land and returned to the
East. The reason was that nobody
visited them, their neighbors did not
seem to know Of the:r existence and the
newcomers quit the state in disgust.
The Dalles Itemizer has the right idea
when it says: "Jf you want newcom
ers, make them feel at home."
A. A. JAYNE REPORTED
MISSING IN MEXICO
The following appeared in Monday's
Oregonian as a special from San Diego:
"A. A. Jayne, an attorney of Hood
Fiver, (Jr., who has been reported
missing in Mexioc, has been found.
"For weeks his wife, who is now in
this city, has been urging the State
Department at Washington to do all in
its power to find her husband, but in
van. Today she received a telegram
from the missing man himself, savin"
that in company with i. D. Wood
worth, a I ,os Angeles capitalist, he bad
gone into the interior of Sorora. so
tar beyond the hounds of civilization
that he hud been unable to communi
cate with the outside world. The tide
gram was dated llermosillo, to which
point Mr. Jayne had been able to make
ids way,
"Although brief, the message an
nounces that both men have sufftred
much hardship and privation, but. sets
at rest the rumor that they were cap
tured by roving bandits, or revolution
ists. "Mrs. Jayne, who hm been com
nletelv prostrated with anxiety over
the fate of her husband, was almost a
completely overcome by the receipt of
Ihe telegram. She has notified her
friends in Oreiroii who have shared her
anxiety, and the State 1 artmont at
Washington, which bad promised to aid
in the search lor the missing man, ol
the return of her husband to civiliza
tion. "
The above report is believed to have
little foundation by Mr. Jayne's friends
here, who knew that be and Mr. Wood
worth were on a trip into I lie interior
of Sonera to look up some investments
in the southern n public, (h-nrgo J.
Watson, Mr. Jayne's partner, has had
letters from Mr. Jayne and I rum Mrs.
lavne. who is in San Diego, during the
past two weeks and no mention is made
of trouble or anxiety over Mr. Jayne.
On Tuesday ol last week Mr. Jayne
wired from llermosillo to the Fuller
Hanking company in this city asking
them to forward him a sum of money.
No mention of trouble was made and
the money which was sent is supposed
to have been for investments in Mex
ico, which Mr. Jayne was contemplat
ing. Mr. Walson is expecting Mr.
Jayne in Hood Fiver this week, as he
had been advised by Mrs. Jayne that
her husband had left llermosillo for
the slates and would come to .Oregon
immediately.
AT NATIONAL CAPITAL
Following is a dispatch from Washing
ton, D. (-., to the Portland Telegram:
I he finest apples in the market ol
the city today are Spitzenbergs and
Yellow Newtowns from Hood Itiver.
i'hev are prominently displayed in the
window of a local dealer and readily
I at HI cents each. In the same
window are various varieties ot apples
from other states, but even the unin
formed can see the superiority of the
Oregon Product. According to the
lealer, Oregon apples are the most
satisfactory fruit he has ever handled
on account of their splendid keeping
Uliilily and superior flavor.
Just lieli.re I hrisfmas I had a small
supply of Yellow or White Winter
1 earmains, he said, and sold out
ompletely at 10 cents each, while the
Winter Hamulus went like holcakes at
20 cents each. My customers are
annum the best class of Washington
people. Until recently 1 have confined
my trade to the rarer fruits and
berries, but as long as I can get that
class of fruit in the apple line I can
sal isfy my customers.
"You Oregon people have a good
apple booster here in Senator lloiirne.
He is the man who got me interested
in Oregon apples, by the way, and I am
going to more than double my order
for next Winter.

A Shock For Tennyson.
If any one asked llolman Hunt
about persons he would tell delightful
frank anecdotes concerning, maybe,
the great men he knew and loved and

Tennyson he had lately taken. They

What the Boys Thought.
A prominent educator, talking to a
class In an elementary school he had
visited, decided to illustrate a point he
was making by a problem In long divi
sion, Ihe Intricacies of which the class
had just mastered, lie put down the
necessary figures and then said:
"Now, let im see how many limes
this number will go Into the other. Let
us try six." He tried six, and, as lie
Intended, six wouldn't do. "Well, let's
try five, I hen," he said. Five w as all
right, and he went ahead with his talk.

Most Beautiful Water In World.
Little restaurants are scattered along
the cliff overlooking the bay of Capri,
and here by the water's edge you can
sit and sip and gane at Vesuvius away
olT in the distance or perhaps at the
water In the bay below.
The most beautiful water in the
world! The blue water of the grotto
is more mystical, perhaps, but the wa
ter of the hay of Capri Is more ex
quisite. It Is a wonderful pale green,
with a greener, darker color streaked
through it. There Is no other water
like it in all the world.
And here In the little restaurant you
sit and sit, gazing at Ihe water below,
although you know in your heart you
ought to be seeing the rest of the
place. I!ut the water Is so green and
beautiful that when the warning whis
tle of the Naples steamer blows you
awake wilh a start and realize you
have seen nothing of Capri at nll
nothlng but the emerald water, so en
ticing and beautiful. Mary Sutley in
Pittsburg Dispatch.
A "Primitive" Painter.
Henri Rousseau, a man who used to
hold a minor government position in
France, was for a quarter of a cen
tury the Joke of artists and art students
In Paris. For years In the Independ
ent salon he showed daubs which
had not the most distant kinship with
art. Some of his "famous" pictures
were a "Lady on a Sofa In a Jungle,"
a "Tiger In a Jungle," a "Nigger In a
Jungle." He affected Jungles, which
consisted of innumerable parallel green
lines to represent grass; the tiger was
a painted wioden toy; the lady looked
as if she had come out of a Noah's
ark. The unfortunate ltousseau went
on exhibiting the same sort, of work
every year, and the painful thing was
Unit he gradually became a celebrity.
Sinister humorists told him he had
genius, and he took himself quite se
riously. "I am a real primitive," he
would say. Some practical jokers even
went the length of buying Ids pictures.

"Here's 2. cents," said a tramp to a

"Twenty-five cents will buy the

lunch is free, you know."
" don't want It that way," the
tramp Insisted. "I want ter pay a
quarter fer the lunch and get the beer
free."
"It's all the same price either way,"
the barman explained. "What differ
ence can it make?"
"It's a matter o' personal honor, sir,"
was the tramp's reply. "I promised
the old lady wot give me the quarter
that I'd spend It fer something to eat I
