NEED OF MEMS MEETINGS.

There is need of union meetings for
men-thinking, self-conscious men,
in Pendleton.
Where high school boys, yet under
90, are allowed to secure liquor on
which to become to" crazy drunk to
pursue their studies. not only once,
but dozens of times during the win
ter, it is time for a union of the
fathers, brothers and sons against
this condition.
Where dives are allowed to flaunt
obscene pictures in the face of the
public, on a main street, where wo-
men and children must pass in going
20 and from town, it is time all classes
of moral men should unite for more
decency and more respect for the
rights Of the public.
Because "A debased saloonkeeper
and his gang of boosters delight in
obscenity. is no reason that they
should be allowed TO impose it on
the public, even from the inside of
their premises. Such people will al
ways go the limit allowed by the
needless officials. regardless of the
rights of the public. The obscene pic
ture in the window of the Court
street saloon should be taken down
by the police and kept down. II the
joint viii not respect the rights of the
public, its license should be revoked.
Little effort is made to locate the
joints at which school boys receive
liquor and as result the whiskey
peddlers become more and more bold
and win in time drive the farmers,
seeking good schools, away from
Pendleton. despite her excellent school
facilities.
There is need of a union of man
for decency and law observance in
Pendleton. There is need for dose
Of Baker City's medicine here, if
nothing else viii stop drunkenness
among school boys and Indians.
They thought that the people of
Baker county did not dare to ind'ct
a saloon man for violation of the law,
but 137 indictments prove that the
people have their nerve. Now it is
declared that the next grand jury will
investigate the motives of the petit
jurors who vote to ncquit the violat-
ors Of the law. A union of such men
is needed in Pendleton. Call a grand
jury for the next term Of circuit court
in Umatilla county.

RETURN OF BATTLE FLAGS.

During Grover Cleveland's first ad-
ministration, a great howl was raised
because the president suggested that
the Confederate battle flags captured
during the Civil War and stored at the
national capital should be returned
to the respective Southern states.
Cleveland was denounced as a trait
or for making such a proposal and
he was forced to abandon the idea.
The mere fact that he had suggested
such a thing was used against him
quite effectively in his campaign for
a second term in 1883 and no doubt
contributed to his defeat by Benjamin
Harrison.
At the last session of congress res
slution was passed instructing Presi-
dent Roosevelt to do Just what Cleve-
land suggested and it has been done
Nobody has raised any objections.
This is only another proof that the
era of good will between the North
and the South is no longer a barren

DEvERs HAS BEEN CONVERTED

In a letter to a friend in Portland.
\. H. Devers, former president of the
state Irrigation association of ore
gon, who is travelling in Europe,
writes:
What business is done on the
rivers and canals all through Europe!
They certainly make use of the
waterways and keep building, or
rather digging, new ones to reduce
freights.
This naturally brings me to govern
ment ownership of the railroads, and
l must say for my part-have be-
come firmly convinced that it is the
right. proper and only thing to do in
our country. Here the train service
is perfect, and second and third-class
rates are very cheap, except in Italy,
where the government owns, but
leases the roads to companies to oper-
ate. In Italy the service is bad, while
elsewhere it is good. Some of the
cars everywhere are poor, others
quite good, but otherwise everything
is arranged for the greatest conven-
ience of the greatest number.
Railroads, 1 have been told by
German acquaintance, are built into
sections, where they are not expected
| to pay when built, and the richer sec
tions help the poorer in this manner.
/ Our greatest objection is that the gov
ernment would not build in a new
territory, but / fully believe we would
have had a railroad into the interior
of Oregon under government owner
ship and control long before this, but
now who can tell when we will have
it?"
From the foregoing, from actual
experience, Mr.. Devers does not APP
pear to be very much alarmed over
government ownership,

TAX THE IDLERS.

It is unjust to tax industry and pay
a premium on slothfulness.
Every man or corporation which
holds a valuable lot or franchise for
speculative purposes, and depends on
the industry of othsrs to increase the
value Of his property, is an idler in
the community and should be taxed as
high as the busy Industrial bee who
fills his sphere with activity and Gre
ates business for others.
Idle lots in the heart of the bust
ness district and idle franchises held
for speculative purposes should be
taxed until the owners would be fore
ed to utilize them from sheer self
protection. The progress of a cit!
should not be held back by two o.
three selfish idlers.
There are several vacant lots in tn
heart Of Pendleton's business distric
which are being held until the growu
of the city shall have multiplied thei

Less than two months until the
portage road will be completed. 1t
is time some of that idle Portland
capital was being invested in boats
for the upper Columbia. Or will
Portland refuse to invest in this kind
of property, i'm order to continue the
present one-sided transportation con-
ditions? Never mind. The people
will remember all these things and the
day is not far distant when they will
be recalled to Portland. The Inland
Empire is too large a country to re-
main always in the grasp of one sell

Close Watch For Game violators in U. |

Close Watch For Game Violators In U. p.
A close watch is being maintained
by the game warden's department
all over the peninsula for violators
OF the law. 1t has been discovered
that in many instances nonresident
hunters are bunting on resident
licenses. Resident hunters license
cost $3.50, while the nonresident
licences cost $25. The difference in
the price probably accounts for the
violation of the law. 1t Is claimed
that the licenses in question are
mostly issued in the southern pen
insula. Prosecutions are liable to
follow.
One OF the amusing features in
connection with the enforcement Of
the new laws is the energy shown
by some of the nonresident hunters
who ask permission to ship venison.
The law says that the game warden
shall issue shipping permit
after he is satisfied that the
game was legally killed. Some of
the hunters seem to think that it is
we'll to be on hand with applications
early in the game. State Game
Warden Chapman received requests
Saturday last from hunters, accom-
panied by affidavits which stated
that the deer bad been killed the
day before. OF course no permits
will be issued on setting forth the
future success Of the hunter and will
have no weight with the depart
ment, as the nimrod must kill his
deer before he asks for shipping
permits.
Game Warden Chapman estimates
that the number OF hunters in the
woods is larger than 1t was q year
ago. Reports from the west sent In
by deputies are to the effect that
hundreds OF sportsmen have been
coming 10 on special trains and the
country is over-run with people in
quest OF deer.

Injured In A Runaway.

Monday Afternoon, while on the
way to his home at the Taylor mine,
James Grace had the misfortune to
have bis left leg broken, and also re-
ceiyed other slight injuries.
1t appears that Mr.. Grace had
started for home just before dark,
and when about opposite Brennan s
camp, his horses became frightend
and started to run. The road be-
ing in rough and frozen condition
caused the wagon to jolt in such a
manner as 10 throw him from his
seat, precipitating him beneath the
wheels, one Of which passed over his
left leg, breaking both bones of the
menber midway between the ankle
and knee.
The team stopped a short distance
from where the accident occurred,
and although suffering greatly from
the severe shock, Mr.. Grace man
aged to regain the rig. with which
he returned to this village where be
was given medical aid.
Fortunately the break was q dean
one, and will undoubtedly mend
rapidly. Mr.. Grace was taken to
the home of relatives in the village,
where he can be given the daily at
tention Of a physician.

HOtel management 10 Cnou8e.
One of the most important busi-
ness transfers which is announced
TO take place 10 this village at q near
date, is that of the management OF
the Thomas Hotel.
Tuesday morning it was officially
announced that the present manage
ment, Mr.. and Mrs. G. @. Heughens,
would discontinue the hotel business
in L'Anse and enter into the same
again at Baraga, locating in the
building formerly known as the
Hotel Vandome.
The news was received with some
degree of surprise to. our towns
people, and for while looked as
though this popular hostelry would
be closed indefinitely, but as soon
as matters could be adjusted, it
was again leased by one OF
L'Anse' energetic young ladies'
Miss Anna Murphywho will take
possession December 1st.
The present management will
leave about the first of the month
for their new location, and after
thoroughly renovatiDg and making
such other repairs as are needed,
expect to be ready for the opening
on or about Dec. 18th. The new
hotel at Baraga will hereafter be
know as "Hotel Gordon, "and it is
safe to say that patrons will receive
only first-class service under its roof.
As for the local hotel, it is assured
that it will be conducted in most
businesslike manner, as the new
proprietress has all the qualities re-
quired Of q person to successfully
conduct an institution OF this kind.
Miss Murphy is young lady Of
strict business integrity, friendly
disposition and person who will
quickly adapt herself to the duties
Of the position she is about to as
sumo, and it is with the best wishes
OF the community that both parties
enter into their respective fields
of labor.

noon train for a brief visit in Ken

Game Warden Chapman says
signs of slaughter by wolves are in
evidence here and there throughout
the peninsula, and there is reason
to believe that many young deer
have been killed. If the deer are to
be protected we must get rid of the
wolves.
AS the result of an attempt to es-
cape from Marquette prison, one
day last week, Charles Meyers, of
Kalamazoo county and Frank Butler

in that section OF the country are
interested in the scheme OF raising
on pine stumps. A car
load Of pine stumps was shipped
to Chicago gardens, where they will
be buried in the ground several feet
and covered with soil especially pre-
pared for the growing Of asparagus.
1t is expected that the roots of the
plants will fasten to the old stumps
and pierce them as they decay thus
affording firm and solid bottom or
foundation for the plants.

AFTER LONG DELAY.
Former ST. Louis hssembIyman on
Trial for Alleged Bribery.

Butler, Mo, Feb. 21.-After a delay
of nearly three years the trial OF
Charles Kratz of ST. Louis, a former
member of the municipal assembly OF
that city, began here during the day
in the Bates county circuit court.
Kratz is charged with accepting a
bribe while a member of the municipal
assembly from an agent OF the Su-
burban Street Railway company to
pass a bill giving an extensive fran
chise 20 that corporation.
Kratz was arrested in St. Louis
some three years ago and after his re-
lease on bond went to Mexico and his
later eXtradition came only after spa-
cial treaty had been arranged with
that government through the personal
interest taken in the case by President
Roosevelt. Kratz was then arraigncd
for trial in st. Louis but secured a
change of venue to Butler.
