VISITING EDITOR
(By Editor Geo. A. RobbiM, in Pen
dleton Livs Wire)
While Pendleton was sweltering in
the heat recently the little city of Hood
River was enjoying much cooler
weather. While the river and the
snows on Mount Hood have touch to do
with this condition, there is another
factor that has much to do with it.
This is the paving. It does net seen
to reflect best as much as light. It
resembles concrete in appearance and
is eslled Haassm. When the city de
termined to psve about two years ago
it sent out its councilmen to learn
which paving was more suitable for
the city's neede. Two liverymen were
members and they spent almost two
years inspecting various kinds of pav
ing before asking for bids.
Their method was somewat different
from the ordinary councilmen. Instead
of calling on tbe contractors, who
would wine and dine them, treat them
to joy rides or relieve an itching palm,
they had made it their business to hunt
up the teamsters in Portland and other
towns visited. From these men they
had drawn their conclusions and when
asking for bids they mentioned two or
more kinds of bids to secure competi
tion. Haasam was selected at $1.25 per
yard.
Examination of the street shows fair
sited crushed rock on and near the
surface. While not noticeably rough
for rigs or autos, or even the feet of
pedestrians, there are small obstruc
tions on the surface which make it
easy to climb. It is laid in about 30
foot sections entirely across the street.
Between each section and the gutters
is an expansion joint of bitumen or
something similar. Not a single crack
was found in several blocks examined.
The recorder of the city is authority
for the statement that Hassam does not
become silppery in the winter like con
crete. He claimed there was two
blocks of concrete in the city and on a
sleety day it was almost impassable,
like Pendleton's Main street bridge.
He said. "We were all surprised one
sleety day last winter when a little
team pulled 2.UUU feet ol luuiber up a
hill easily. Hassam isn't 'floated' like
concrete and it always stays rough."
The city is laying considerable oil
macadam at 96 centa per yard at the
preBent time." This is an experiment
and it is not known how successful it
will be.
Hood River is a Drettv clace for the
reason its builders have followed nature
aB much as possible. One docs not see
ahade trees act In a row very often.
Crest neks are growing where nature
planted them with many pine trees be
tween.
CARAVELS OF COLUM
BUS REPRODUCED
San Diego is to see the reproductions
of the caravels of Columbus, the Santa
Maria, the Pinta and the Nina, and the
harbor of San Diego is to be the first
one on the Pacific coast of the United
States to hail them, after they have
passed through the Panama canal.
These reproductions of the caravels
of Columbus, constructed for the
World's Columbian exposition in Chi
cago in 1893, have been in Jackson
Park, in Chicago, ever since that time,
but on the fifteenth of the present
month, they leu the Jackson f ark la
goon, and riuily started on their long
journey to the Pacific coast. They
were first taken to the drydock at
South Chicago, here they will remain
until they are made entirely seaworthy.
From Chicago too little fleet will
proceed to Boston, and there they will
tie up for the winter. In the spring
they will be manned by crews of stu
dents from Harvard and begin their
long cruise. It is planned to skirt the
Atlantic, stopping at San Salvador, the
nrst land discovered by Columbus, and
then on to Panama and through the
canal.
Music and Sexual Morality
(Calvin S. White, M. D., in State
Hygiene Bulletin.)
The decadence of our times in music,
as illustrated in our popular songs in
the last three-quarters of a century, is
certainly appalling. The songs of 75
years ago, "Old Tom Moore," "Believe
Me, Annie Laurie," "Bonnie Sweet
Bessie" and "The Last Rose of Sum
mer," were largely supplanted at the
time of the Civil war by popular songs
set to martial tunes and were sung by
all a generation ago. However, as
time decimated the rank of those who
had served in the army and as the
sweetheart of the soldiers became the
grandmothers of the present genera
tion, these songs were largely sup
planted by light sentimental songs,
such as "Ben Bolt," and "White
Wings," and we all gave a shudder
when "Pretty Annie Rooney," togeth
er with "Sally in Our Alley, " swept
over the country like wild fire. It was
said that we were degenerating in our
tastes, but now the worst of the cheap
and tawdry sentimental songs of ten
years ago are nothing compared to the
abominablu, demoralizing and almost
obscene Bongs of the present day,
ground out from phonographs, bellowed
in vaudeville, shouted on excursions
and whistled by the newsboys.
Our musice stores and song shop fill
their windows with popular songs, the
vileness of the title page only equalled
by the disgraceful chorus on the in
side. "Everybody's Doing It" proba
bly was to try out pubile opinion. Ev
idently nubile opinion approved of it
! for it was followed by "Mabel, How
Do You Manage to Do It on $12 a
Week?" "Everybody Lovea a Chick
en," and so on, adnauseam. What
sort of education in chivalry is this?
Who is Mabel? Who are the chickens?
The vile pictures of lecherous old. rep
robates, leering at the pretty-faced and
trim-gowned young women on the title
page of a so-called popular song dis
played all over the land is not an en
couraging sign of progress in the cam
paign against a double standard of
morality.
Hop Season lias Begun
The hop season started last week
with an army of over 10,000 people
who will garner the crop this year.
The crop this year will amount to
about IMO.IXHJ bales, which ta valued at
$5,000,000, this placing Oregon first
amongst all the hop producing states
in the Union, averaging about 40 per
cent of the tot si I output of the United
States. The crop is of a better quality
than for years past, according to prom
inent growers. " Growers are expecting
big prices for their crops this year,
quite a number having contracted their
output for 20 cents a pound. Last
week's rains, while temporarily em
barrassing the pickers, greatly bene
fited the hops in both quality and
weight.

raises tbe temperature of bis body 30
or 40 degrees?"
A New Plan.
"That would offset tbe cold," replied
Mrs. Bowser.
"Your head Is not Oiled with saw
dust after all. Yes, it would work
that way, and don't you see my plan?
To meet tbe cold of the north pole
we simply keep on raising tbe tem
perature. It's tbe simplest thing In
the world, and yet nobody seems to
have thought of It Mrs. Bowser, con
sider the north pole as rediscovered.
Consider It discovered by Mr. Bow

ber, and tbe cat came out from under
the lounge and squinted at both and
wondered y bet her it was a question of
science or mousetraps.
"Yes, hut how are you going to raise
the temperature of the body, a hundred
degrees or more?" queried Mrs. Bow
ser. "Just as easy as lifting up your foot

It did not take nun ova minutes to Bad
couple of tramps who were sloshing
a boot between tbe boos and tbe cor
ner. When be explained what be
wanted and bis willingness to pay
they both cheerfully accompanied him. ,
As they stood with their backs to tbe
range in tbe kitchen and hungrily eyed
tba remalna of dinner be took tbelr
temperature and pronounced It normal
and then escorted tbem to tba back
yard. There were anow banks against
tbe fence, and be selected positions
and aat them down. It was a keen,
cold nlgbt one made to order for such
an experiment
"Now. then." said Mr. Bowser as all
was ready, "I take It that yon feel

"W-e d-or replied tbe men In chorus
through tbelr chartering teeth.
"That Is splendid. I estimate that
there Is a difference of at least 40 de
grees between your temperature and
tbat of tba weather. Too will now
each of yon take a lozenge In yonr
month and let It slowly dissolve. In
two minutes yonr blood ought to be
the same temperature as the weather.
In Ore yon ought to Imagine tbat rob
ins are singing and daisies blooming
around you."
The Experiment
As Mr. Bowser wasn't experiment
ing on himself, be discreetly retired to
tbe warm atmosphere of tbe kitchen
and took his stand at a window. He
had scarcely began bis observations
when one of the tramps rolled over
and began to kick like a horse tangled
op In his harness, wbllo tbe other
sprang to his feet and spat and splut
tered and coughed and crammed bis
month full of snow.
"What are yon fellows op to?" shout
ed Mr. Bowser, as be rushed out
They gave him no beed. They seem
ed to be acrobats let loose, and they
went throngb more antics than as If
they bad picked up a dozen hot horse
shoes It was Ave minutes before
either of them could speak, and then
one cooled bis month with an Icicle
hanging to tbe clothesline and stut
tered: "B bboss, what s-asort of a g g game
is thlsr
"Yes. what sort of a g-g-game?" add
ed tbe other as a snowball melted in
his mouth.
"It's no game at all. It's an ex
periment as I told you. What have
you done with those lozenges?"
"S-s-splt 'em out dnrn yel"
"Yes: s-s-splt 'em out!"
"But yon mustn't do It These are
to raise the temperature of your blood
until It eqnnjs the temperature of tbe
atmosphere. If you'd kept on sucking
tbe Iomm:pn you'd have been perspir
ing by this time. Sit down and try
It again."
Bowser Is Bested.
"Bill," said the first as he continued
to eat snow and draw In long breaths
of the frosty air, "does It look like a
cold blooded attempt to burn up the
vitals of two respectable gents?"
"It do, Sam. It dor
"And by buroln' up our vitals take
way our appetites?'
"That's the gamer
"If I was playing any game would I
promise you a quarter apiece?" asked
Mr. Bowser.
"It's my solemn oplnynn tbat ye
would!"
"That's our solemn oplnyunp
Mr. Bowser was about to protest and
Increase bis cash offers when the two
gentlemen with burned vitals fell upon
blm. The three went down together,
and Mrs. Bowser, looking from a back
window, and the cook and cat looking
from a back door, could see nothing for
tbe next two minutes for tbe cloud of
snow In the air. Then the two tramps
detached themselves from tbe circus
and climbed the yard fence, and the
household went out to look for Mr.
Bowser. There were thousands of
traces of blm at band, but It took
three minutes to discover his actual
presence and dig It out from under
the snow. He had been thumped and
kicked and choked, but life bad not
departed. He soon rallied and sat up,
and after being helped to bis feet be
made bis woozy way to the kitchen
and thence upstairs. He did Sot ask
what had happened, and Mrs. Bowser
gave him a rest of fifteen minutes on
the lounge before she said:
"I suppose the government ought to
be notified at once, and If yon don't
feel well I can do It myself."
An ugly glare, followed by a gritting
of bis teeth, and It was ten minutes
before she observed:
"I've told the cook to heat some
witch hazel to wash off the blood. Do
you wish for any temperature?"
But Mr. Bowser had grow weary of
north pole weather and fallen asleep.
