MIR. Sewall was slated for Governor and
Mr.. Dole for Chief Justice and he asked
how the appointments would be re-

OF Mr.. Sewall but stated that the lat

attacks on Mr.. Dole that Sewall's ap-
pointment would cause an undeserved
humiliation to the man whose labors

TRAILING SHEEP.
May Be the Last Great Drive Across
States From Pacific Northwest.

OIdIGS FROM PACIFIC NOTIUWGSls
J. l. Carson, a well-known drover,
Is in Portland preparing to start
"on the trail" with $500 yearling
wethers, purchased in Morrow coun-
ty. He says he would ike to buy
about 5000 more. but remarked:
''They are holding 'em too high for
me. | am willing to pay S225 head
for wethers. and 1913 for ewes, but
eastern Oregon sheep men think they
are worth more. So we can't trade"
Mr.. Carson says he will start his
big flock early in May. just as soon
as the sheep have been shorn. lie
will probably ship by train from
Heppner to Huntington, and ferry
across the Snake River near the ter
minus of the Oregon Railroad. He has
not yet solved the problem as regards
crossing Wyoming. as the new quar-
intine law Of the state was formed to
prevent sheep trailing across its
lands. He was thinking therefore, Of

OF sheep "trailed" across the state Of

now nearly all claimed for range, and
the water has been about all taken
up. In one locality he will have

to go without water for four days on

these and the black sheep frequently,

Trailing sheep across Oregon, Idaho

Mr.. Carson says, "when the country
was open. but now we expect more or
less trouble from people who claim
the grass all along the route. We
can hunt and fish while the sheep are
resting during the heat of the day,
and our frequent change Of location
creates perpetual novelty. Once in a
while some irate farmer or cattle man
gets after us, fearing our hOcks will
eat his grass all up before we get by.
but we have thus far avoided any SER

Women in Persia.

Life is sad in Persia, especially the
womans life. The law of Islam al
lows each man to have four wives, and
as many concubines and slave girls as
his hand can hold. His wives, also.
he may divorce at will. our word
"boSh" is the Turkish word by which
a MOslem divorces his wife. 1t doesn't
count if he says it only once or twice,
but if said the third time the woman
must go. Down along the Caspian the
men often marry their wives in the
Spring, so as to have the benefit of
their labor in the rice fields, and di-
yorce them in the Fail. so rs to escape
supporting them during the Winter.
At Meshed, where the pilgrims come, is
large population of temporary wives
who are married to the pilgrims, far
from home and families, for as long a
time as the pilgrims remain ut the
shrine-a day, or a month. The Mo-
hammedan priests draw up the con-
tracts for these temporary alliances.
Lord Curzon. who has been there, says
Meshed, though the hottest city in Per-
sin, is the wickedcst in Asia. There
are no words for wife and home in Per-
sian. There are no homes and few
wives. 1t is curious TO hear a hand
some woman say: 81 have told my
husband if he marries another wife l
shall poison him, and intend to do it."
Or to ask woman about her home life
and get the answer: Love my hus-
band! Oh, yes, l love him. | love
him as much as a sieve holds water"
