Another illustration OF the benefits o
CO operation, this time among WOODROW
ers, is had. There seems to be some
influence in the air NOWADAYS which
causes the individual PARTICLES to run tc.
gether, incorporate and start on com.
mon action.
1t is not generally known in Oregon
that our stlte has in the string of lakes
running northeast from Albert Lake,
one on the borders of Lake and Harney
counties, which is strongly Saline, and
where the waters will lend themselves
to the processes to be now described.
Something more for the railroad to
carry whenever it gets there
"The Idaho Woolgrowers' Associa-
tion has just made the final payment of
$4,000 on the salt plant it has pur-
chased with which to fight the salt
trust, and has red the price of salt
from $3.50 to 81 IS per ton. This is the
lowest rate that has ever been made on
salt anywhere in the West. This price
is regarded as remarkably good one,
in view of the big task of preparing the
salt. The water is pumped into shal.
low ponds and allowed to evaporate.
The salt is then scraped up, cleaned,
sacked and sewed up, AID is even load
ed on the cars, for the sum of 81 IS for
each 1000 pounds.
"The woolgrowers feel they have the
moral support of the entire state in
heir fight against the salt trust. They
lave already forced down the price of
alt in Boise, for illustration, from $17
'er ton to S. %, including freight and
II other charges. The association has
ssued the following circular letter in
egard 10 the matter:
"'Dear Sir:-The Idaho Woolgrow-
RS Association has completed in every

Uncle Sam will soon act as sponsor

The birth Of two promising towns is ex.
pected; rot twins, however, for they

chosen Tor them. Heyburn for the one
whose natal day will be November IA,
Rupert for the one that will look back
to i vember q as the day Of its official
beginning. On these important days
tale of town lots will be made under the

Already the town sites are being sur

A great many Americans have
gone to the Alberta country this
year in the fone of getting a for
tune 10 cheap wheat lands. TIE
Anticipation of unforeseen attrac-
tons far away are always allurino,

that reserved seats are not at a
premium in the Alberta country
is labo",ng under mistake.
Pres cut conditions would Indicate
that there are more real estate
agents than farmers up there. For
the real farmers, the men who
want to get right in and work,
there are probably Just as good
CHARGES right here in Morrow

who will formally notify the 0. r. & N.
The county court del berated upon
compromise proposti for about two
weeks. during which every phase of the
case was investigated. The legality of
the compromise was a matter of ques-
ton, it having been decided that such a
course conld not be legally taken.
One of the points in doubt is covered
in section 9l2 of the Oregon statutes
which reads in part:
lit is the power Of the county court
to have general power and management
of the county property, funds and bust
ness where the law does not otherwise
expressly provide.
"To compound for or re ease in W hole
or in part any debt or damages arising
out of contract due the county, and for
the sole use thereof, upon such terms
as may be Just and equitable"
County Commissioner T. P. Giliiland
was the only member Of the court who
spoke yesterday for publication. He
sad. "Personally ! believe that the
compromise would have bee the most
practical thing as the company seemed
willing to settle on a basis of $4,000
and pay up what it owes the county,
with interest. There would be no more
litigation over the matter and we would
be relieved of expense as vel as sus-
pense.'
The interest on the unpaid taxes due
the county will amount to about 81, 500

The abolition of the state print-
ing Office at the close of Mr.. Whit
ney's present term will be sug-
gested in the form of a constitc-
tional amendment by initiative pc
tition. This conclusion has been
reached by committee that is
planning to try and get through
several changes in the states
organic law at the next election.
The proposition is to let the state
work out by contract under the d.
rection of a commission composed
Of the governor, secretary of stale
and state treasurer. The Gazette
is of the opinion that the result of
such a law would be inferior work
at greater cost to the state than
under the present system. The
state work is divided into so many
d fferent classes that it would
mean innummerable contracts
that would be expensive and un-
satisfactory.
