The Editors Wife.
Letter from an Illinois Newspaper Man
That is Well Worth Reading.

As a usual thing editors save the
good things for the columns of their
own newspapers, but the following let
ter from S. H. Duncan, editor of the
Seaton 0ll) Independent, shows that
there is at least one editor who wants
to help the others.
He writes as follows:
"To the Editor of the Journal:
l wish you would print the following
and thus he'll me to do kindness to
your readers. My wife has been a great
suffer with stomach troubles for the
past four years, and the last two years
practically an invalid Nothing seemed
to help her until l procured box of
Mi-o-na, natures cure tor Indigestion.
This gave her SO much relief that she
continued using the remedy until now
she enjoys her meals, is relieved from
all pains in her stomach, and has in
creased in flesh.
| hope you will publish this letter, for
| think there is no remedy for stomach
trouble equal to Mi-o-na, and the more
wide spread it's use becomes, the more
good will be done to humanity.
s. II. DUNCAN,
Editor of Independent"
Y. M. Crosby d Co., have the local
agency for Mi-o-na, and their faith in
Its merits equals Editor Duncan's.
They, in fact, offer to pay for Mi-o-na
themselves in any case where it does
not give satisfaction No stronger en-
dorsement of the merits of the remedy
can be given than this, that local
drug firm is willing to sell medicine
on their own guarantee to refund the
money if it does not cure stomach
troubles and increase flesh.

DAMAGED BY SHELL FIRE.

Japanese Make Impression on Batter
les at Port Arthur.
Niu Chwang, March 9-New arriv-
ais from Port Arthur confirm the ru-
mors in circulation here last week that
the westerly batteries have been bad
ly damaged by the Japanese shell
fire. Desultory bombardments contin-
ue, but there has been an absence of
concerted action on the part of the
Japanese warships for a couple of
days. All of the civilian popuation has
been expelled from the town.
A heavily-laden train was derailed
near the town Saturday, but it is not
known how much damage was done.
The wreck was caused by an obstruc-
tion being placed on the track by JAP
anese agents.
There has been NO recent damage to
the Russian squadron at the hands of
Japanese, the cruiser Askold has been
foated, and Expert Gilchrist now de-
c1ares that he can save the battleship
Retvizan., The attempt to repair the
drydock so that it would accommodate
the battleship Czarevitch has been
abandoned, and she will remain in a
disabled condition until the close of
the war, or until she can be sent to
Vladivostok, where the drydock is
large enough to accommodate her.
Niu Chwang is now occupied by a
small detachment of Cossack cavalry.

FIRE LOSS GROWS.
Oklahoma Now Puts Cost of Prairie
Blaze at $5oo,ooo

Oklahoma City, Okla, March T.
Three persons perished in the prair-
lie fire and the financial loss by the
fire and gale is estimated at $500, 900.
Further reports of property loss by
both fire and wind indicate that the
first estimate was too low. The dam
age by wind extends over seven coun-
ties in the Southwest. The total
losses from fire and storm can as yet
only be estimated, but it is the gener-
al opinion that they will reach $780,
900.
Scores of persons are suffering
from burns and broken limbs. The
area from which reports of damage by
wind come cover hundred miles
square and means of communication
over the district are meager. This
difficulty is increased by the fact that
poles are burned and wires blown
down.
The little town of Francis was des-
troyed by fire, but no particulars are
given.
Three residences at Snyder were de-
moished, and seven persons were in
jured, none, it is believed, fatally.
At Mount Park, several houses were
demolished, and half a dozen persons
were injured, none, seriously. A strip
six miles wide and. nine miles long
burned 20 miles south of Hobart. The
loss in the Kiowa country will exceed
$150,006.

TO OPEN BIG TRACT.
Congress Is Asked to Allow Settlers
on Yakima Lands.

on Yakima Lands.
Washington, March S.-Representa-
tive Jones today introduced a bill
opening to settlement about 1 200. 900
acres of unallotted lands of the Yak
ina Indian reservation. Having the
assurance of the support of the inter-
ior department he hopes to secure the
passage of this bill at the present ses-
sion.
The bill authorizes the secretary of
the interior to classify and appraise
the unallotted lands of the reserva-
ton. Irrigable and grazing lands are
there to be thrown open under the
homestead law, while timber lands
will be sold under sealed bids after
due advertisement. Mineral lands
will be disposed Of under the mineral
laws and arid land under the desert
act.
In addition to complying with the
requirement of the land laws, settlers
will be required to pay the appraised
value Of the lands they acquire. The
bill recognizes the claim of the Yak
ina Indians to the disputed tract OF
100000 acres lying west of their pres
ent reservation and east of the sum-
NIT of the mountains. The secretary
is authorized to make allotments to
those Indians on the reservation who
have not yet received lands, and is
also authorized to set apart tracts of
grazing and timber lands for the ben
eft of the tribe.

LEGISLATURE WILL DECIDE.
Unpaid Indian War Claim Will Be
Presented to That Body.

Salem,-Secretary of State Dun
bar has prepared circular letter
which he is sending out to all Indian
War veterans who have unpaid claims

he will preserve the claims and pre-
sent them to the next Legislature.
This is in accordance with a general
law prescribing. the duties of the Sec
retary of State. The claims now in
the hands of the Secretary of State
amount to $35 5,227.O6.
It is understood that Adjutant-

HAPPENINGS HERE IN OREGON
POWER FROM MORGAN LAKE.
Ia Grande May Soon Have Suburban
Electric Lines.

GISCITIC Lines
La Grande.-Morgan Lake, situated
about two miles above La Grande, has
been thoroughly tested as to the
amount of power and water that can
be obtained from it. The power will
be used for different important things,
for the benefit of La Grande and the,
community. More power will be used
for the electric light plant and to run
motor line to Hot Lake and other
points in the county.
The engineer reported to the officials
of the electric light company that
their plan was entirely feasible and
practicable. The plans call for frac--
tion over two miles of pipe and the
power obtained through the pipe will
be equal to 500 horsepower. The res
ervoir when filled will contain water
sufficient to furnish this amount of
power for a period of one year, with
out receiving any additional supply.
In other words, when the lake is filed
it will contain enough water to sup
ply water for 5OO-horsepower. The,
lake is situated 100 feet above the
power station, which, according to the
plans of the engineer, will be located
near the site of the Old Town Touring
mill

HOPE IS ON LAND.
Russia Considers That the War Has
Hardly Begun.

>~SS''s
st. Petersburg, March S-Although
almost four weeks have elapsed since
the Japanese fleet first attacked Port
Arthur, here the war is considered
hardly begun. Heavy land fighting,
upon which the fate of the campaign
depends, is not expected much before
the end of April. By this time Rus
sia will have in the field, exclusive of
the large army of men required to
guard the railroads, four army corps,
each with a cavalry division and an
pened so far, or is going to happen un-
til these forces are in the field, is con-
sidered, according to the Russian
view, to be nothing more than the
prologue to the real drama.
The Gripping of the Port Arthur
fleet was unfortunate in that it gave
the enemy the command Of the sea at
the very outset 1t is, however, of
relatively small Importance from the
standpoint of the main strategy of the
war, whether Port Arthur stands or
falls. But as long as it holds out,
and the fleet is harbored there, it will
constitute a potential menace which
will restrict and hamper Japan's op-
erations, and the Russians are deter
mined to defend Port Arthur as horo-
ically as they did Sevastopol. No
large garrisons will be retained there; !;
1000 men are as good as 100000 for
defense, while the more men the
more mouths to feed. There are
enough provisions there now to last
for eight months. In addition, there
will be a division of Cossacks with
mountain batteries on the peninsula
to oppose landings and harass the
enemy if it succeeds in investing the
city.

SHELL THE CITY.
Japanese Fleet of Seven Vessels Bonn
bard vladivostok.

bard vladivostok.
Vladivostok, March 8.-A fleet of
five Japanese battleships and two
cruisers appeared of this place at
1:25 o'clock this afternoon and bonn
barded the town and shore batteries
for SIS minutes.
The fleet approached from the di-
rection of Askold Island, at the east
entrance to Ussuri Bay, and about
32 miles southeast of Vladivostok.
Entering Ussuri Bay, the enemy
formed a line of battle, but did not
approach to a closer range than a
mile and onesthird. They directed
their fire against the shore batteries
and the town, but no damage resulted,
as most of their 200 lyddite shells
failed to burst.
The Russian batteries, commanded
by Generals Vernotez and Artamonoh,
did not reply, awaiting closer ap-
proach of the enemy.
The Japanese fire ceased at 2:30 p.
M, and the enemy retired in the di-
rection of Askold Island. Simultan-
eously two torpedo-boat destroyers
appeared near Askold Island and two
more near Cape Maidel. The Japan
ese ships were covered with ice. :
The attack resulted in no loss to
the Russians, but cost the Japanese
200, 900 rubles ($100,000) in ammuni-
ton. Most of the projectiles were six
and 12-inch shells.
The population of Vladivostok was
warned this morning Of the presence
on the horizon of hostile fleet and
the prospect of an attack during the
day, but it remained tranquil.

BET AND STONE ACT.

LaW-Richards, Pinchott and Newell
Advocate Restriction of Commuta-
ton Clause.

Washington, March 9.-The COM
mission appointed by the President on
October 22, 1903, consisting of w. A.
Richards, commissioner of the gener-
al land Office; Clifford Pinchot, chief
forester of the department of agri-
culture, and F. H. Newell, chief en-
gineer Of the reclamation service, to
make suggestions regarding revision
of the laws relating to public lands,
has made to the president partial
report which was sent to congress to-
day. It recommends the repeal of the
timber and stone act, and the substi-
tuition of suitable provisions for sell
ing, after appraisal, the timber on
public lands that is needed in large or
small quantities for industrial pur.
poses.
The committee also recommends
the repeal of the law permitting as
signment of entries un0er the desert
land law, and urges the importance of
a more careful administration of law
especially as to those provisions re-
lating to obtaining an adequate per
manent water supply.
1t advocates the restricting of the
communication clause of the homestead
entry where such entries are located
within forest reserves or where the
land is chiefly valuable for timber. 1t
suggests the outlines for law permit
ting homestead entries upon agricul-
tural lands within forest reserves and
the survey and description of such ag-
ricultural lands by metes and bounds
rather than by the regular system,
fhrc hn nd q
to be selected along the valleys and
t. embrace the good tillable land with
out taking in extensive tracts of side
hill.
The recommendation also is made
that when lands are restored to entry
after temporary segregation ample
time should be allowed homesteaders
to exercise their rights, giving them
the preference over persons who may
wish to select the land by the use of
scrip or other form of entry.
