WHAT WILL NOW Be DONE
WITH THE WH|SKEY PEDDLER

What will now be done with the
whiskey peddler?
Will the saloons be thrown open to
Indians and will the menace of drunk
en- half-breeds and full-bloods now
be imposed upon the community since
the supreme court decision says that
Indians are citizens and may buy
whiskey II they choose, so far as the
federal government is concerned?
These are a few of the questions
that are now deeply agitating the
minds of the people of Pendleton.
1t is the concensus of opinion among
the leading attorneys that the Oregon
statute of 1864 is still in force, and
will serve as check, but judging
from the inactivity of officials in
other more important law violations,
will this ancient statute be enforced
There is a general sentiment among
attorneys also, that the city council
should take immediate steps to insert
a proviso in every liquor license, by

Idaho expects to have the finest
educational exhibit at the Lewis and
Clark fair" said State Superintendent
of Schools May Scott, of that state, to
the East Oregonian this morning, as
she passed through to Portland to su-
perintend the installation of the ex-
hibit
Miss Scott is enthusiastic over the
educational exhibit that has been col
lected by her state and owing to the
fact that Idahos state building will
afford her ample room in which to
display it. she expects to make a high
ly creditable showing.
Idaho is growing so rapidly in the
way of schools that it is impossible
to keep up with the demands. We
are now far behind the demand for
school room in many places and the
number of teachers in the various
cities is increasing at rapid rate. We
can scarcely realize that the state is
making such rapid strides. Why.
Blackfoot, just a village a few years
ago, will employ nearly 20 teachers
during the coming school year; Twin
Falls has sprung into existence, a full
fledged city within season, and st.
Anthony, pioneer village only a
short time ago. now a thriving city
and the site of a new state school.
There are now 10 first-class high
schools in the state of Idaho, and in
every district in the state, it is fair to
say, there is a brisk increase In the
demand for school room.
Idaho is so well advertised in the
East that many settlers are locating
in the state, among them, of course
many first-class teachers, so there is
a plentiful supply of teachers for all
the needs of the state"
Miss Scott is a. progressive and
highly capable educator, and has ex-
erted great influence in finishing the
educational conditions in her state.
She spoke kindly of Pendleton and
regretted that she was unable to at
tend the. last meeting of the Inland
Empire Teachers association here,
since she was on the program for an
She will probably remain in Port
land until the fair is opened when she
will return to Boise.

STABBING AT THE DALLES.
SaloOnkeeper Injured by Francisco in
Quarrel.

The Dalles, May 23.-This time a
cutting affray, which occurred at A.
L. Nelson's saloon last night about
1880, the principal being a young
man who has been heard from before
and whom it is said was in a cutting
scrape but a few weeks ago.
About IL o'clock Nightwatchman
Mahear went into Nelson's saloon and
asked for Edward Francisco, saying
he had got into a quarrel with some
alley woman, had struck her and he
wanted to arrest him. Being told that
he was not there, the officer went out.
Later Francisco made his appear
ance, in an intoxicated condition, and
Nelson told him that the police was
after him to get out of the saloon,
that he had trouble enough and didn't
want any more. So saying he took the
young fellow to the back door, when
he turned on him and showed fight.
Nelson slapped him in the face,
whereupon Frisco" drew out a large
pocket knife and jabbed the blade
into Nelson's left arm between the
shoulder and elbow, going clear
through the arm and cutting a bad
cash about four inches long.

Echo of School Strikes.
The arrest and prosecution of par
ents and children connected with
school strikes following the use of. COL
ored teamsters in delivering coal at
public schools has aroused bitter feel
ing among members of labor unions.
The Federation of Labor has adopted
resolutions as follows:
Resolved, That the federation
pledges itself, TO stand by these chill
dren, and II necessary for their vindi-
cation, to hold ourselves ready to
withdraw our children from the cor
poration controlled schools.
Resolved, That If these victims of
servile and misdirected zeal be not i'm
mediately released, we pledge the
services of this organization both to
children. and parents who have been
arrested or prosecuted by officials
who are so easily blinded to the doings
of sweatshops and trust factories, but
who are so ready to cast a stigma on
the highest type of childhood today,
and we promise to secure their free
dom and their rights, even If it be
necessary to go to the supreme court
of Illinois to accomplish it.
Resolved, That a committee of five
be appointed by the president of the
federation, with power to take such
steps as may be necessary to give eff
feet to these resolutions"

ACHEN PLEADED GUILTY.
need to Two Years in Mounds
Vile Penitentary.

Washington, May 23.-August NJ.
Machen, formerly superintendent of
the free delivery bureau of the post
office department, this morning en-
tered a plea of guilty to the indict-
ment charging him with conspiracy
to defraud the government in con-
nection with the sale of letter car
riers' supplies to the department in
conjunction with George E. Lorenz,
of Toledo, and william C. Crawford,
of Washington.
Machen threw himself on the mercy
of the court. He was sentenced to
two years imprisonment in the
Moundsville peritentiary, TO be serv-
ed at the conclusion of his present
sentence.
William C. Crawford made a plea
of not guilty. Machen refused to say
anything that would prejudice the
other defendants. 1t is understood
the other IL indictments against Ma
chen will be quashed-

which the license would be revoked
and a bond forfeited where liquor is
sold to an Indian under the license,
and also to cover the crime of boot
Logging.
This would safeguard the commun-
ity somewhat. 1t is also generally be-
lieved that an agitation should be
begun now, for a positive and rigid
law to be passed by the next state
legislature, by which whiskey selling
by saloon and by private bootleg
gers" to Indians shall be forbidden,
under heavy penalty. That it should
be made the duty of officials sher-
iff, district attorney, constables and
other officers of the law to conduct
investigations and make arrests where
1t is thought Indians are receiving
whiskey, and not wait for public sem
timent to force the officials to act as
is the case in the matter of gambling
and closing of saloons on Sunday, the
maintenance of boxes in saloons and
the sale of whiskey to minors.

employed by IS lumber firms struck
this morning, adding about 500 team
sters to those already on strike and
apparently making the prospects for
a settlement more remote than ever.
At $3.50 this morning a conference
was called at the office of the mayor
for the purpose OF finding some sofu-
tien II possible of the problem involv-
ed in the attitude of the express COM
panies towards their teamsteTs on
strike. The companies have maintain
ed they could not take the men back
who have violated contracts with
them. Unless some provision is made
for the express drivers the unions
claim they can make no settlement OF
the strike.
Mayor Dunno. Levy Mayer. attorney
for the employers representatives of
an the express companies and an al
dermanic committee are present.
1t is believed the conference will
result in finding some loophole
through which the locked out express
drivers can be taken back which will
remove the last obstacle in the path
of a settlement

Mayor Dunno announced the express
companies seem unwilling to make
concessions. Another meeting is ar
