SENATOR FULTON FATHERS BILL
Hopes to Have II Included in River

Washington, Dec. A. Based on q
report Of United States Attorney Hall,
sent to congress today by the secretary
Of war, Senator Fulton intends 10 intro
duce bill authorizing the government
to acquire by condemnation the canal
and locks owned and operated by the
Portland General electric company at
Willamette Falls. The board OF eDgi.
neers, which made an examination of
this canal two years ago, reports there
Is sufficient water in the river even at
the lowest stage, to meet the demands
OF commerce and to supply power for
the several manufacturing establish
ments now located at Oregon City.
District Attorney Hall, reporting on.
the legal question, says If the govern
ment desires to acquire this canal, 'fthe
measure Of damage would be the actual
present and prospective value OF the
locks, together with the damage suf-
feTed by depriving owners Of the right
to take water therefrom for msnufac-
turing or other commercial purposes"
Already, based on these reports, Sem
ator Fulton has secured promise from
Representative Jones to endeavor to Sc
cure provision in the river and har-
Dor bill, now being framed, authorizing
the puchase OF the electric company's
canal after condemnation. Represent
ative Jones will base his demands on
Senator Fulton's bill, which will prob.
ably fix the limit OF the cost Of the
canal at $500, 900 or 100000.

OREGON STATE ITEMS OF INTEREST
TO DEAL IN FINE HORSES
New Industry Opened In PendIeton by
Former Eugene Man.

Pendleton.-A. G. Ruby, formerly OF
Eugene. Ore, has purchased the Ore
gon feed yard Of this city, and pro.
poses TO maintain a distributing depot
for Imported horses. He has at his es-
tablishment "a horses and six Jack.
asses. The horses are Percherons,
French draft, Belgian shire and coach
stations. Every horse was selected by
him In Europe and shipped 10 this
country from Germany and France.
The animals are of the geatlest dlspo-
sitions. Mr.. Ruby not purchasing any
that showed signs OF III temper.
The animals will be kept at Pendle-
ton, and, as the occasion requires, dis
tributed over Oregon and Washington.
The Mclaughlin Bros, Of Cincinnati,
proposed TO establish q station here.
but finally decided upon Ogden, Utah.
Mr.. Ruby w4ll either purchase resi-.
dence property or build and remove
his family 20 this place, where he will
have permanent headquarters.
This station means much to eastern
Oregon and Washington, not only for
the convenience of II, but for the
material improvement that will be
made In the horses. Until the last few
years little attention To the breeds Of
horses was given. or late years prices
have increased until Il pays handsome
ly to raise grade of horses that com.
mand the highest prices % In eastern
markets. The day OF the cayuse Is
past, and the farmers have learned
how much more work can be expected
from a horse Of good size than from
small cayuse.
Not only are the farmers demanding
good horses, but are raising mules.
The jacks owned by Mr. Ruby are
from Missouri. and are much sought
after by breeders.

port from the island of Perrin, in the

British steamer st. Leonards was taken

cause she was credited with carrying

the st. Leonards was stopped solely for
the reason that she was carrying coal

with destruction, but heroism upon
the part Of the Minneapolis and St.

destruction, although immense damage
was done to the stock by water. ST..

Chicago, Dec. IA. - The Chicago
Daily News has the following TODAY
from staff correspondent at Hong,
Kong:
"Rumors OF impending Boxer trou-
bles are prevalent throughout North
China. Information from several
sources points to the fact that the Chi.
nese are drilling everywhere, and that
conditions are similar to those that
preceded the last outbreak, but that
the trouble is more widespread, and
the organization much better. 1t is
believed that large numbers of Japan
ese officers are drilling troops in the
interior and commanding detachments
of General Mas army northwest of
Pekin, and that Japanese reverse will
be the signal for general uprising of
the Chinese against Russia, led by Jap
anese officers.
MANY residents here fear that such
an outbreak could not be confined to its
original limits but would endanger the
safety of the foreigners throughout
China"

Portland, Dec. Whatth prob
able attendance at the Lewis and CLARK
exposition will be lie subject that has
aroused no end of interest, for upon
the attendance depends the success of
the great enterprise. There is no one.
perhaps, better able to speak on this
question than Secretary H. E. Reed,
who, with the cooperation of other
exposition officials, has spent much
time in compiling statistics and inyes-
tigating the factors that will contribute
TO the attendance. In arriving at def
mite conclusions, comparisons have
been made with such expositions as
those at Omaha, San Francisco, Nash
vile and Atlanta, which were of much
the same magnitude and scope as the
Lewis and Clark exposition.
Secretary Reed has estimated that
the total attendance during the entire
exposition period will be somewhere
between 1880, 900 and 100000.
"This estimate, said he, compares
favorably with the ttendance at Oma.
ha, San Francisco, Nashville and At.

numbered 1,77S, 500; at San Francisco.

imateIy 300, 900 Acres.
Washington, Dec. 10. - The senate
today passed without amendment Rep
resentative Jones' bill opening to set.
tlement the unallotted lands Of the
Yakima Indian reservation in Eastern
Washington, embodying approximately
500, 200 acres. The bill having pre-
viously passed the house, requires only
the signature Of the president to make
it law. 1t provides that the lands
shall be classified as grazing, timber
and arid lands, capable OF irrigation,
then appraised and thrown open to
entry at not less than the appraised
value. The exact manner OF the open.
ing is to be prescribed by the presi-
dent. Mineral lands will be subject
to location under mineral land laws.
To make 1t easy for settlers, it is pro-
vided that payment shall be made in
five annual instalments. but entrymen
failing to make payments lose their
rights to lands entered. The receipts
from the sales OF lands will be deposit
ed in the treasury to the credit of the
Indians on the Yakima reservation and
expended for their benefit. The bill
recognizes the claim of the Indians
to disputed tract of 293, 900 acres ad-
joining their reservation on the west,
but also recognizes the rights of bona
fide settlers who now hold lands in this
area.

New York, Dec. IA report ia be-

well for presentation to the board of
education, which, it is said, will be the
first step toward the adoption of a
three hour or three and a half hour
day for the lowest grades in all the
elementary schools of this city.
The board of superintendents has
been investigating as to the relative
results obtained by full-day classes,
part-time classes, morning classes and
afternoon classes in the. first two school
years, since the beginning of Novem-
Der. The investigation was begun as
a result of proposal to cut down the
school day in these grades generally by
eliminating certain studies. President
Tiff, of the board Of education, said
in reference to the scheme:
"While 3 five hour day is probably
good to keep children on the sheets in
some parts of the city, / believe in
short school days for younger children.
would give every child educational
facilities as great as possible, but not
30 great as to interfere with proper
mental and physical growth. More
than three hours class work daily
makes the children restless"
