shonny etymologists, photographers
and orthographists agree that the
name of their tribe is derived from
two words, viz: "Sho," meaning
biscuit, and 'Shonny" mean
ing beggar, hence, translated,
Shoshonny means biscuit beggar.
The very best authorities on pro-
nunclation are Sagwitch and
Pocatello. They were the scholar
warriors Of their tribe. We knew
them both personally, which is not
related in a boastful spirit, because
better men are hung every day. We
were at Sagwitch's wickeup when,
in pursuance of a we'll directed bull
let from the gun of one of General
Connor's boys in blue, the great
chief gave up the ghost. We ap-
pealed to him with his dying breath
to forever settle the pronunciation
OF the name OF his immortal tribe,
He gasped and said: We are bis.
cult beggars, call US Shoshonnies,
with the accent on the penultimate;
and don't forget, it is shonny like

o fully verified the correctness of
Sagwitch's conclusions.

EDWARD N. HARRSEsAN

One of the most remarkable mer
in the world today is Edward H
Hartman, president of the Union
Pacific and the Southern Pacific
railroads. Eight years ago, he was
practically unknown, except to a
few immediate associates, today he
Is the controlling genius of IS, ZOO
miles of railroad, valued at two
thousand millions of dollars. Out
OF the wreck of the old Union Pa
cite he has constructed a personal
fortune that runs into hundreds of
millions and made himself a power
in the railroad and financial world,
felt and feared by such giants as
James J. Hill and J. P. Morgan.
Mr.. Hartman is not an impos-
ing edifce, in respect of his earthly
tabernacle. He is small of stature,
narrow.chested, lusterless-eyed, sal
+low'taced and, by such acute OBJ
servers as Senator McBeth of Gus
ter, would be allocated to the limbo
OF cigarette tends. It is said that
he actually does smoke 'em occa-
sionally.
Just now hordes of reformers.
philanthropists and numerous other
breeds of envious cattle are filling
forums, magazines and newspapers
with denunciation of Mr.. Hartman
as menace to public welfare, pro-
gressive civilization and human
liberty. Yet, Mr.. Hartman is the
very embodiment, the example par
excellence, of that success which
especially every American youth
has been religiously taught to at
tain at any sacrifice whatsoever.
We do not know Mr.. Harriman's
heart. We cannot say to what
purpose, good or bad, he will ulti-
mately employ his vast wealth and
power. But this we do know, he
has thus far done nothing that
ninety nine men in hundred would
not be glad to do if they could.
Every merchant, every farmer, ev-
cry working man, each In his par.
ticular sphere. is striving to accom-.
plish all that Mr.. Hartman has
and more, too. therefore, in the
bosom of envy are bred most of the
imprecatious which are hurled
against him.
To our mind, Mr.. Hartman is
the very flower OF American man. |

the SALOON

Editor TBIRUNE--In the last issue oil
your paper. under the heading, Local On.
ton, while you do not directly oppose tn c
| principle Of the proposed le gislation, your
words plainly imply approval of the saloon.
You say that among those who are on one
| side OF the question of intoxieants are 1.-THE
great body of moderate or temperate in
| dulgers"; that they are perfectly honest
| and sincere. And that on the other side
are "a lot of long faced hypocrites who
have attached themselves to the cause Of
temperance for purely mercenary pur.
poses".
Now, few will question the honesty and
sincerity of the moderate drinkers attach
ment to the saloon, but what ground have
you for saving that lot of its opponents
are hypocritesP From time TO time, in
your, editorials and extracts, you refer fav-
orably to the saloon. Why? Have YOU
ever known saloon to do any good for a
people2
The permanent prosperity of any COM
munity depends upon the intelligence,

Arm Badly MangIed.

Austin KEGS. a cousin of Warden
KEGS, of the state penitentiary was
brought to the Walla Walla hospital
early Yesterday morning with his left
arm fractured in three places. and
stripped of flesh as a result of bad
accident occurring near Starbuck late
Saturday evening.
Mr.. Kees, whose home is at Wes-
ton. Is operating a threshing outfit in
the Starbuck wheat fields. Saturday
night just before shutting down for
the day he was adjusting some ma
ckinery about the separator and ac-
cidentally got his hand caught among
some gears. The arm was drawn in
and badly mangled before the en-
gneer could shut down the machine.
Mr.. Kees was Immediately taken to
Starbuck and brought to Walla Walla
on special train. At the hospital
an examination showed that his arm
was broken in three places and prac-
tically denuded of flesh in places. The
fractures were reduced and the at
tending physician has hopes of saw
ing the arm.-Walla Walla States

SUIT WAS NOT SUITABLE.
Decided That Clothing House Could
Not Recover.

\ suit over a suit that did not suit
was tried out in the Justices court
here yesterday afternoon, and at 10
o'clock this morning Justice Fitz
Gerald decided in favor of the de-
fendant 1t was a case brought by j.
A. Mclaughlin & Co. against Cecil R.
Wade to recover the sum of $40
which was the price OF a suit of
clothes made by that firm for the de-
fendant a month or two ago. When
the suit was finished by the tailor it
was not accepted by Mr.. Wade be-
cause of the fact that it did not fit.
Some very amusing incidents -oc-
Cured at the trial yesterday after
noon. Several of the prominent tall
ors of the city were put on the stand
by the defendant and explained to the
court wherein the suit was lacking.
Also, the coat was tried on by the de-
fendant for the benefit of the court
and evidently it did not come up 10

sunday was a closed day in Athena,
every one of the saloons remaining
closed all during the day. much to
the satisfaction of those who have
been contending for the enforcement
of hte Sunday closing law. The un-
usual action on the part of the saloon
men was taken in compliance with a
notice sent them by John McCourt,
acting district attorney, to the effect
that they would be prosecuted should
they remain open on the Sabbath.
Last Friday Rev. f. Baker and Rev.
]. w. Jenkins, both pastors of Athena
| churches, We're here and made COM
plant to Mr.. McCourt that the Sun
day law was being violated at Athena
by the saloons. and wished to take
legal steps to put a stop to the prac-
tice. While averse to taking any ac-
tior on such a subject in the absence
of District Attorney Phelps. Mr.. Nc
Court felt that the request could not
we'll be denied, and consequently he
wrote to the various saloon men of
Athena ordering them to close up on
Sunday. Apparently his order was
complied with to the letter by the IL
quor dealers of that place. It is said
that the movement is favored by a
majority of the citizens of Athena,
and that it is their wish that the en-
forcement be continued. While threats
. have been made by the saloon men
that they will close all other business
places also, this is said to have caused
no uneasiness there.
There are two state laws regarding
| Sunday closing: one which compels
saloons to remain closed, and another
which requires all other business
houses with the exception those han
/ ding certain lines to remian closed

BOYS ARM BROKEN.
Bicycle Went Down and Threw Him
Upon w. Is @. II. Track.

John Nolte, the 12-year-old son OF
Anton Nolte, had his left arm broken
and badly fractured just before noon
today as a result of a fall from a BIZ
cycle.
Shortly before 12 o'clock the lad
was riding home with a package of
meat in one hand, and as he was
passing the bicycle shop on West
Webb street he fell in some manner
and struck upon the planking of the
w. & C. R. track. He was at once
picked up and taken to his home,
where his hurt was attended to by
Drs. Smith and Dick. According to
the latter the arm was broken just
at the elbow, and the forearm was
thrown out of joint. But while the in
jury is n bad one and the use of the
arm viii doubtless be impaired, the
doctor does not think the arm will
be lost.

PRAISE FOR OREGON
TOURISTS ARE DELIGHTED
WITH THE STATE.
Memories of the Idaho Desert Make
Oregon Fields Appear All the More
Beautiful and Inviting - Oregon
Mountains Present Scenery Unsur-
passed in the Boosted Mountain
Ranges Of the East, and South.

1T is a good thing for oregon that
the Idaho desert lies just beyond her
eastern border" said a tourist from
Ohio, to the East Oregonian today.
Never did green fields and ripen-
ing crops seem so beautiful and re-
freshing as those of eastern Oregon,
which We encountered this morning
after crossing that long, dreary, hot,
inhospitable, forbidding desert in
southern Idaho yesterday.
by comparison, oregon is a veri-
table paradise. The sight that we en-
joyed as we rounded a curve above
Grand Ronde and beheld the first
fruitful. teeming valley we had seen
since leaving the eastern states, was
magnificent. 1t impressed Oregon
upon our minds indelibly. With mem
ories of the Idaho desert still lurking
in our minds, 1t gave US impressions
of oregon which shall never fade
away, no matter what more boasted
spots we may visit or what more ia
nous spots we may visit or what more
famous climes we may trave, through.
And the trip from the summit OF
the Blue mountains down the wind
canvonns to Pendleton, through
green stretches and ripenlng crop, be-
side the mountain stream and under
the frowning cliffs, with the noun
tains towering above you ever, is one
of the most beautiful parts of the en-
tire journey across the continent from
Toledo.
II have travelled through the noun
tains of West Virginia, Tennessee,
New York, New Hampshire and YER
mont, and while all those states pos
sess boasted mountain ranges yet
6ere In this little stretch Of country
without fame or boasted name, L nave
seen more magnificent mountain
scenery than anywhere in the east
or south.
"As your country becomes more
widely known not only as a place
where men may make homes, but also
see wonders and enjoy life, large
tourist travel Of the most desirable
class will be attracted to Oregon and
the mountains of your state, now un-
named and practically unknown VIII
