OLD TIMER DEAD.

John Bell, father of Mrs. Thomas
Pettigrew, died at jamestown ait the
age OF 81 years. He retained all his
faculties to the last. being remark
ably well preserved man. Mr. Bell
was born on the island OF Isley in the
Highlands OF Scotland in August, 1905,
coming from one of the best old fam
ilies. whose tree has more than one
noted figure in that historic nation.
When immigration was largely directed
TO Canada in 1888 he left for the now
world. There were only sailing ves-
sels then and for seven weeks and

STAY IN NORTH Dakota.

-. %.
A Steinbach of jamestown, who is
in Washington, advises North Dakota
farmers not to come west. In a letter
from Ritzville he says:
Irrigation is all right for orchards
but you cannot grow wheat in that
way. Land here that is good for any
thing is high in price from $1,000 to
$4,000 being obtained for 16O acres.
Poor land upon which nobody can
make Lying you can buy for from
$500 to $1,000 per quarter section. The
whole western country is permeahed
with alkaH and in a good many places
the water is very bad The water OBJ
tanned on the mountains is good. Some
places they have to haul water as far
as eight miles. Wells are costly on
the best land Where they raise big
crops, from 80 to so bushels 70 the acre
OF winter wheat, they usually have to
drill from 80 to 400 feet through solid
rock, then pump water with a wind
mill or gasoline engine. A well like
that costs from $500 to 1900 but the
water is soft and good.
l should advise anybody who has a,
good place in North Dakota to STAY
there. would also advise anyone
who is without money not TO come west
except for health as in my case. Lab
oring men are plentiful. TWO dollars
per day is paid during harvest. Crea-
ton seems ITO have upset everything
here. .a.-y.

jamestown, July PA dispatch
from Washington says that the claim
of the heirs. of Charles Durkee, former
" governor of Utah, against the United
States for certain bonds of the Central
Pacific Railroad company, valued at
$G4,623,512, was dismissed by Judge
Hagner of the district supreme court,
and the application for a rule against
Secretary of the Treasury Gage to
compel delivery of the bonds to the
claimants was denied. Judge Hagner
said this decision was based on many
grounds, an important one of which
was that Leonard Blaisdell, complain
ant as attorney in fact for the attor-
neys in law in The case was not the
proper person to bring suit. He in
timated that the suit should have been
brought by the administrators. The
petition read to the court says the dis
puted bonds We're required by CHARLES
Durkee, who died in 1870; that the
bonds were then selling very low and
that they are now in the treasury
vaults, or at least had been seen there
by one of the Durkee heirs in 1884.
The government, in its defense, set out
that the petition did not allege who
were the heirs at law and their respec-
tive interests, nor did it allege that the
matter was a purely min nLsterial func-
ton, The government contended
that the secretary's power Yin the prem
ises is purely a discretionary one.
James Durkee of this city, who is
one of the parties interested in the
suit, says that this decision will not
end it. When properly presented to
a higher court Mr.. Durkee has no
doubt that decision will be rendered
in favor Of the heirs. - y.

for us to sever our relations with the
grammar grade of the Hood River
public school, 1t is with feelings of deep
regret that we do so. Our relations
have been most pleasant, We are
proud Of our school, proud to have been
pupils in it, and proud that we are
Americans and enjoy the privileges of
our educational system. We want to en-
courage the remaining pupils to come
on, to study hard that they too may
soon be made ready to sever their re-
lations with this school and seek some
thing that will advance them farther.
Dear teachers, it is with feelings of
sadness that we part with you. We
appreciate your faithfulness to your
duty, your interest in our welfare, and
your Kindness to us. We shall always
remember you with kindness and love.
Dear classmates, we too, now must
part, Let us each and all try to re-
member one another, and let US strive
to do right that we may make citizens
worthy OF that name.
Dear friends, teachers, scholars, class
mates, with sadness in my heart, but

Democratic Platform.

We the democrats of Oregon, in conven.
tion assembled, do hereby reafffrm and en-
dorse, In whole and in part, in letter and in
spirit, the platform adopted by the demo-
era ic convention held in Chicago in 1895, and
the money plank of the democratic, peoplsS
and silver republican parties of 1895
We favor amendments to the federal con-
stitVlion specially authorizing an Income tax
ana providing for the election of United States
senators by direct vote of the people,
We are opposed to government by iAipnc-
tion, as applied to labor troubles and strikes
and the resulting deprivai of the right of trial
by Jury TO men who are charged with erim-
lnal acts. We believe in the passage of an
employers liability act, applicable to rail.
road companies, similar to such acts now in
force in other states, by which the doctrine of
fellow-serviee, and that an employer is not
liable to one servant for the negligence of an
other, shall be abolished. And we also be-
lieve that where the injury is caused BY the
negligence OF the master, the mere fact tn,
EMPLOYER knew ofthe negligence and contln>
aed IN employment, should not defeat his re-
covery. And we pledge our members of the
Legislature 10 favor legislation along these
lines, and also repe0lng or extendiDS the
italit OF recovery Tor the death of aa employe.
We further favor q reasonable snperv ision
and limitation by the state of the. operation of
railroad trains, and of the number of cars
which may be hauled in n train; and linn
ltation or the hours which employees shall
work without rest. We further believe the
legislature should pass laws by which the
books OF railroad cocporatioE should be open

state, so that q reasonable rate Law may be
established and reasonable wages be secured
