Charges for the Range.

Thus far no open conflict has
appeared between the cattle and
sheep men gathered at Walla
Walla, to attend the allotment of
the Wenaha forest reserve. If
any comes it will be when the
committee of %, in conjunction
with Chief Ranger Schmitz and
and Superintendent of Reserves
Seller starts to work on the ac-
tual apportionment of territory.
The charge Of 25 cents a head
for cattle and 5 cents a head for
sheep, announced by the chief
ranger, is declared moderate by
all. The money thus obtained
will be largely expended in the
protection Of the ranges, and the
enforcement. A rule which
causes some dismay among the
sheepmen, requires that during
the migratory period sheep must
make at least two miles a day,
and restricts the territory on
either side of the route chosen,
over which the sheep may Craze.
Cattlemen, however, insist on
the enforcement of this rule to
protect the cattle ranges.
So far no appointments have
been made. 1t is estimated the
applications will total between
400 and 500.

The Umatilla.

w. C. Brewer, superintendent
of the Umatilla Mining company,
arrived III camp a few days ago.
He has put a crew of men to
work building a trail up Rock
creek to the mine. This trail
will be an 8 per cent grade from
Orogrande to the Umatilla mine.
Early next spring, Mr.. Brewer
says, they will build a wagon
road over the same trail. Several
loads of supplies have arrived
and are being packed up the hill
to the mine. 1t is the intention
of the company, so Mr.. Brewer
says, to develop the property al
winter. There will be no mil
built on the property, he says
until the ore bodies are developed
sufficiently and ore enough block
ed out to run the mill for years
This they expect to have done by
spring.

men that they would incur large
losses in carrying out the work
specified. These people do not
and will not understand that the
contracts they enter into are
very carefully guarded and that
no discretion or leniency is pos
sible after the contract is signed.
They seem to forget that an en-
ploye of the government can not
modify the contract, no matter
how onerous it may be, and that
their property and that of their
friends who have gone on their
bonds must be taken by the gov
ernment in default of the work.
There is no desire on the part
of any one connected with the
government to let a contract at
less than a fair rate, with reason
able profit. 1t is far better for
all concerned that the contractor
make fair wages for his men and
a small return upon his capital
invested. The engineers Of the
reclamation service, having spent
the best part of their lives ir
such work, know, as rule, very
nearly what it will cost, and they

and details of the work in order
that their bid may take all factors
into consideration. The letter
contains the following:
There seems to be peculiar
fascination about a government
contract and a widespread belief
that person who secures a con-
tract from the government is
certain of large profit and easy
work. AS result, there are
many inexperienced persons who
are continually seeking contracts
and who. out of their ignorance,
frequently succeed in getting
into very embarrassing situa-
tions. There is nothing more ir-
ritating than the effort of mex
perienced persons to try to get a
contract, and if by chance it is
awarded to them, they seek not
to execute the work as required,
but to shirk the obligation in
Cured.
The reclamation service, hav-
ing a new class of work, has
been put to much trouble and ex-
pense by inexperienced or specu-
lative individuals who have, in
some cases, made bids ridiculoua-
ly low, and have insisted on hav-
ing the contract awarded to them
in spite of the warning of skilled

pass. This year there is a de-
cided sentiment in favor of an
Omnibus Public Buildings bill in
both the senate and the house,
and it will be a very difficult
matter for the leaders to prevent
it's passage this session. Mr..
French will use every endeavor
at his command to have his bill
favorably reported back from
the committee, and as he is an
adept at this line Of work it is
very likely that Idaho will be
given some public buildings this
session.
Congressman French will in
troduce a bill providing for the
opening of the Coeur d'Alene In
dian reservation in North Idaho.
The bill provides that the lands
of the reservation now held by
Indians in the aggregate be al
lotted in severalty and the
remainder of the lands
thrown open to settlement. 1t
is estimated that after the In
dians are supplied with their
share of the land, there will still
be over 800, 900 acres of good
land for settlement. According
to reports the land Of this reser-
walton is very fine and if it is
thrown open there will no doubt
be grand rush to get the best
land. Mf. French believes the
country will be greatly benefited
by this move and as a conse-
quence much valuable property
will be added to the tax lists of
the state.
Hepburn and French have been
extremely lucky this session in
: securing good seats. Senator
deyburn has q seat formerly oc-
cupied by Senator Platt of Con.
. necticut, and is considered one
of the very best on the republi
, can side. This is probably the
: most conspicuous seat ever hell
r by any senator from the mort
> west. Mr.. French drew a sea
+. in the center of the republican
side of the house and within
: very few feet of some of tn
e distinguished leaders, and ais
within a short distance Of hi

PERSEVERANCE, WINS
The Thunder Mountain Company VIII Install
Five More Stamps.


Word reached the MINING
News this week to the effect
that the Thunder Mountain Gold
Co. will in the near future in
stall five additional stamps to
their reduction plant making it a
ten stamp mill.
The building, of which the
above is a cut, was erected with |
this express object in view, is
situated at the mouth Of the
gulch which is a natural
Sboundary between the quartz
claims and those located on the
dyke, the site being selected with
an eye single to securing the best
results from the view point OF
economy in the treatment of both
classes of ore. The mill has at
present a crushing capacity of Is
tons of ore per day of "a hours,
and tankage capacity of 20
tons for cyanide treatment of the
tailings after amalgamation, and
aside from the temporary lack OF
ore bins and tramways to the
mine is quite conveniently
arranged for comfort of employees
and good work, being lighted by
lyelectricity and heated by steam.
Steam being also the motive
power used until water can be
applied.
In addition to the five addi-
tional stamps to be installed i'm

said, rave completed the plans

Good Chance for Senator Heyburn's S
Pure Food Bill.

fure ROOD Bill.
(From Northwest Press Association
The historic corridors of the
capitol, which for seven months
have been as silent as the grave,
once more hum with life and |
furnish the back ground for
scenes of animation. The 59th |
congress has begun. The house
of representatives commenced its
deliberations by electing that
rugged statesman Of the old
school-the ex-watch dog of the
treasury Joseph G. Cannon,
speaker. John Sharp Williams,
the brilliant young southerner,
,was again selected to lead the
democrats.
Vice President Fairbanks called
the senate to order and appoint
ed Senators Allison and Morgan
as a committee to act with a like
committee from the house and
notify the president that the
59th congress was ready for
business. The house and senate
then adjourned to await the
presidents message, which was
received the next day. The
message is of unusual length and
touches upon nearly every i'm
portant subject with which the
government is concerned. AS
was expected, it deals at much
length with the subjects of rail-
road rate legislation, labor and
capital the Panama canal and
Santo Domingo. The message
is a very strong one and is re-
ceiving careful study.
Last Tuesday over three thou
sand bills were introduced in the
house, but none were introduced
in the senate. On Wednesday,
however, many bills were intro
duced in both brances. Senator
Hepburn, of Idaho, introduced {
Pure Food Bill" which will bC
one of the most important meas
ures before congress at this ses
sion, and it is believed that h
will be able to secure its passage

ARIzoNA's POSITION.
CTucson Citizen.)

All the public bodies of Arizona that represent the people aud have right to reflect and express public sentiment, have declared opposition to the jointure of Arizona and New Mexico in statehood The legislature declared against the jointure, the boards of supervisors of the different counties declared against jOinture, and all the municipal bodies in the territory have declared against the surrender of Arizona to the dOmina tion of the New Mexican majority.
 This correctly expresses the opin
 ion of the people of Arizona A few individuals here and there are will ing to submit Arizona 70 the govern. ment Of New Mexico. Theso are in yaTiably back number politicians, pee pie with grievances, men who have been turned down" by their party lawyers without briefs and ready for any adventure, and the aged, the de crepit and the feeble.

 do the governing, and Arizona would have to foot the bills. Arizona would be denuded of it's iustftutions-iss
 university, its prison, It's asylums and | its normal schools. New Mexico would furnish the governor and the | state officers, the senators of the United States, the judges of the su. preme court. Spanish would in all probability be made the official Ian | guage of the courts and legislature, and the teaching of English might not be tolerated in the public schools.
 This is what confronts Arizona in the
 event of joint statehood with New
 Mexico.
 The thoughtful and patriotic people
 of Arizona desire to preserve their
 own civilization, their own institu- l tions, their own laws and liberties. Arizona is English speaking. and the | great majority of it's citizens are of European stock, largely of the Anglo ! Celtic race. They will not surrender ! their right to govern themselves.
 They will never yield themselves to
 the dominant voting power of an alien
 race.
 Arizona demands home rule-self. | government. the right to control it's
 own destiny and preserve it's own i civilization. Arizona declines to pay
 the bills for the education of the | illiterates of New Mexico. Arizona
 desires to stand On it's own solid bot.
 tom now and for ali time The in- telligent people of Arizona know that
 when a census demonstrates the pres.
 ence of population in the territory
 equal to a congressional district in | the older states, Arizona will be ad-
 mitted to the union in its own right and on an equality with the other l states. There is no provision for dis membering a state, except Texas,
