During the past few days many in
quiries have reached this office as
to the status of the case of George
Ireland of Freewater, who was charg-
ed some time ago with violating the
local option law.
1t is stated that the defendant. Ire
land. is still conducting a saloon bus
iness at Freewater. On being seen
yesterday Circuit Judge Ellis stated
that when the case had been called
in his court several days ago a plea
of not guilty had been entered and
that the case would probably come up
next Tuesday or Wednesday.
Before trying the case the district
attorney wishes to consult Attorney
General Crawford, and also to look
up the Texas reports. the Oregon law
being modelled after the one in force
In that state. To do this involves
a trip by Mr.. Phelps to Salem which,
because of other duties, he has not
yet made. In the meantime the de-
fendant is merely under bonds to ap-
pear when his case is called.
Balleray & McCourt are the attor-
neys for the defense and 1t is under
stood that they will contend the local
option law was not regularly enacted
in the subdivision of which Freewa-
ter is a part. This they contend on
the ground that the petition from that
subdivision was presented at a special
session of the county court and also
that the petition was not properly
recorded subsequently.
AS the constitutionality of the law
is not attacked nor the regularity of
its enactment, except so far as that
subdivision is concerned, the Free
water case is not a test case for the
entire county. The point that the pc
tition was presented at a special ses-
sion of the county court is the same
one that arose in Gillian county,
where the local option law carried.
but was set aside by the county judge
for the above excuse.

MOVED AGENCY BARN AND SHED
We're Needed for Protection of Vchi-

The moving of buildings from the
Agency to the government school To-
cation on the reservation has begun.
Last week a small barn and the shed
belonging with 1t were moved and re-
erected close to where the barn stood
which was burned. They will be
used to house the carriages and other
vehicles belonging to the reservation

long felt want, as heretofore the We
hicles have stood beneath the leafy

is possible that others of the agency
buildings will be removed to the

burned will cost from $1,000 to $500.

Union County Pioneer Dead.

John Morrison, one of the first
pioneers to settle on the Sand Ridge,
the famous wheat belt of Grand
Ronde valley. died yesterday, after
a brief illness In the Good Samaritan
hospital in Portland. Mr.. Morrison
was 73 years of age and was taken
to the hospital on January 6. He was
one of the most prominent surveyors

came to Grand Ronde in the early
SOS from Iowa. He was a typical
Scotchman, frugal, jovial and a lover
OF society and music, although n
bachelor, He was famous bag pipe
player and a favorite with all the
children in the country. His remains
passed through to La Grande this
evening, in charge of State Senator

Cigarettes and Boys.

From my observation have found
that fully four-flfths of the boys who
run around the streets and who lie
and steal and are brought to the po-
lice station are cigarette fiends" said
Chief Waller of Spokane. 81 believe
that the tobacco out of which these
cheap cigarettes are made is drug
ged. Boys get to be so inordinately
fond Of them that they cannot stop
smoking them. l do not wish to say
that all cigarette smokers use opium.
but 1t is a fact that 80 out of every
1000 opium fiends are addicted to
cigarettes. I am in favor of a very
stringent law against selling cigarettes
to minors"

The Dairyins Industry.
Dairying in Clatsop county is in It's
infancy. and very few dairymen realize
the natural advantages Of this coun-
try. The climate. coupled with the pro-
ductiveness Of the oil. makes II an ideal
district for production Of butter ana
cheese: dairymen are taking more in
terest in the breed and care Of stock.
With the genuine butter COW. such
as few here have as yet. much better
results may be obtained. though even
now the luxurient pasturage enables
the cows to furnish an abundance Of
rich milk. with more than an average
of butter fat. A modern equipped
creamery Is in operation In Astoria,
furnishing the farmers a ready sale
for their cream, at an average price for
the year of 22h cents per pound for
butter fat; and the cows yield. under
good care. about 225 pounds Of butter
fat per year. There Is general inter.
est in increasing the dairy business;
many OF the dairymen are preparing to
enlarge their herds, and new daries are
being started. Ever-growing grass
and the best market In the world make
this an inviting field for those who
understand the care OF cows.
All the Oregon coast country. espe-
cially that near the mouth OF the Co.
lumbia river, is very similar to the
great dairying sections of Europe, such
as Denmark, Holland and the Channel
islands. The winters. however, are
milder and the summers dryer.
The lands best adapted to grass.
growing are the tidelands. which are
river bottoms adjoining the Colurn..
bia or its branches, and overfiowed by
the highest tides. These lands may be
reclaimed by diking. at an expense of
about SO per acre. BY diking large
tracts by machinery-with steam
dredges-the expense may be reduced.
and more substantial dilkes erected. One
acre of tideland has been shown to be
ample for keeping one COW the entire
year. There are still in Clatsop county
about 10000 acres OF tideland to be
dIked. much Of 1t being easily cleared
after the diking is done. This is no
experiment, as many Of the best dairJ
farms have been made on diked tide
