Frank X. Welles is anxious to make
credihble exhibit Of Umatilla county's
schools at the Lewis and Clark fair, and
be should receive most cordial support
in his efforts, says the Tribune. The
exhibit at ST. Louis failed to be proper
ly presented in the Oregon building and
was Of little value to us; in fact it was
detrimental, because Of such poor
showing and the impression was given
that the schools Of this county were in
a bad condition. For this reason special
effort should be made at our own
worlds fair to overcome this impression
and properly represent the good con.
dition of the schools OF Pendleton and
other towns of the country districts OF
tho county. Mr.. Welles, il given
sufficient encouragement and support,
will do this work in an excellent man
ner.

destructive offense night and day from

as by cunningly placed mines charged
with the most powerful explosives
known to man, the gallant garrison
under General Stoessell has maintained
its position nearly year. The sacrifice
of life recorded in taking Port Arthur

railroads for the most part now de-

Lands at d distance from railroads

because farmers have not facilities
for getting their produce TO the rail-

and this limit will be widened to a
great extent. so that railroads, instead
of carrying the traffic from within
three or four or FIVE miles of their

that distance over good roads.

A NEAT piece OF naturalization work

house this week A witness at the
Turgeon trial swore that he was not
born in this country. Fartherquestion-
ing disclosed the fact that he was born
in Indiana. Some of the boys, who
knew the clerk of courts was born in
Indiana, fixed up some dummy papers,
making the honorable clerk of courts
renounce all allegiance to the governor
of Indiana and swear fealty to the
United States Of America, on the
ground that record of the Union
county court can be produced showing
that Indiana is not portion Of the
United States. The same schemers
