GET TITLE

Many Morrow county pastures con.
tain tracts that are still vacant govern
ment land. The people who have these
lands enclosed need every inch Of them,
and ought to own them.
They stand in their own light by not
taking steps toward getting title to such
lands, and need not be surprised to find
that sleeping on their rights has given
others = chance to get in and ie on
what they had been calling their pas
ture"
10 get title TO Stray tracts is very SIM
Pile. Where they contain less than l6O
acres, and adjoining land has been deed
ed, such lands are called Isolated Tracts
and may bs applied for under special
law. When YOU want to buy such
tract you may make your application be
fore [. s. Commissioners Morrow or
Mallory or county clerk, or at Gazette
Office, paying the usual fling fee and ad-
verJising. Then your application goes
TO the district land office, then to the
general land office, and the commission
er sends it back TO have it advertised in
the Gazette for weeks. Then it is cold
at auction at the district land Office to
the highest bidder, and generally goes
At s. . al acre TO the man who applied
to have it advertised.
You DO not need to have a homestead
right to buy in an isolated tract.
Men who intend to continue IN the
stock business here are now wisely get
ting title 10 .ll the land they can use to
advantage. They know that never again
will they be able to buy at such low fE
ure., and 70 have a sure thing on the
use Of land they must own il.
Ia becoming lts owners nov, they are
making safe investments, and will make
money on the natural increase in values
Such pioneers as J. VI, Hager know
from long experience how the lands OF
neWly-settIed regions increase in value
He was pioneer Of Umatilla county,
and saw lands there increase from 81 25
an acre to their present selling prices Of
$50 to $50 an acre.
Mr.. Hsger says that the poorest graz
ing lands Of Morrow county are going to
sell for $40 an acre, and be worth it to
st0ckrnen. Now the best OF them may
be bought at s. an acre.

But toward evening snow and hal

FRIEND AND FOE.

Aguiusldo expresses himself as
we'll satisfied with his food and
treatment as prisoner in Manila
No doubt he is being better pro-
yided for than the average Ameri-
can soldier, according to the state
ments brought back by the Oregon
Volunteers who served in the Phil
ippines, No doubt Aguinaldo's
full rations reach him. The vol
unteers say that large slices of their
rstions never reached them, but
were stolen and sold while they suf-
fered for food,
The latest news from Manila
tells Of the wholesale stealing of
soldiers rstions. 1t is the curse
of the army. When the commits
sary-sergeant of a Kansas regi-
ment was arrested for selling sol
diers rauons he said it was very
unjust, SIS every other commissary
was doing the same. When the
Washington volunteers were at
Vancouver they told of missing
many meal and doing drudgery
that Aguinaldo will never have to
do.
Although the American soldier
costs the government about $500
year, or has that sum charged up
against him, his salary is miserably
small, and sad to say be often goes
hungry in the midst of plenty.
