RETURNED FROM WASHINGTON.
cruce Emphatic in Expressing That

Cruce Emphatic in Expressing That
Statehood viii Come this Session.
Hon. Lee CruCe, president of the
Commercial club. returned yesterday
from Washington where he has been
for the past two weeks in the interest
of single statehood without re-
straint he discussed the statehood sit
uation freely expressing the belief
that congress this session would add
another star TO the flag and that OK
lahoma and Indian Territory would
be granted the inherent right OF sell
autonomy.
Though admitting that the situation
as complicated by reason of the fact
that Arizona and New Mexico were
also fighting for statehood, coupled
with the fact that the question has
resolved itself into n political one,
and that tn east views with envy
any increase H. western or south
western representation. Mr.. Cruce is
firm in his belief that nothing short
OF a miracle can prevent statehood
for Indian Territory and Oklahoma
this session. He states that the SEN
timcnt in congress was never strong
cr for statehood than IL is now and
that the president seems personally
interested i'm the matter and he gave
the delegation which called upon him
when n plea was made for joint state
hood every assurance and went so far
as to state that If this congress dI
not provide for statehood he would
call q special session 70, the purpose.
Behind the statehood movement are
some OF the most prominent republi-
can senators. says Mr. Cruce, and th'5
fact is very pleasing and encourag
ing. He states that there are several
bills pending but states that IL is the
opinion of some of the senators tina
the omnibus bill will the one passed
by congress
Fear had been expressed that the
chances of Indian Territory and OK.
lahoma would be lessened by the Ari-
zona-New Mexico fight, but this has
been obviated by the advocates Of
of Joint statehood for Oklahoma rally
ing to the support of the omnibus
bill providing for the admission Of
one state for those territories.
Mr.. Crucc states that the delegation
worked with energy TO convince con
gress that we were entitled 20 state
hood ana that the delegates COM
Ulished a great deal The ba!arac Of

Henceforth there is to be no limit
to the amount of land which one man
may lease of Indians on the reserva-
ton. Instructions to this effect were
received yesterday by Major ]. J. Nc
Koin and they will go into operation
at once, thus settling a matter that
has been much in doubt for some time
past.
When communicated with by phone
this morning Major McKoin said that
the order was given by the department
in answer to a request which he made
soon after his arrival here. His recon-
mendation was that the rule forbid
ding one man to lease more than one
section be waived as far as the Uma-
tilla reservation is concerned. on his
arrival here he found that the rule
had not been enforced during the past,
and that as a result there We're many
who had over the limited amount of
land. However, no action was taken
on the matter until now.
According to Major McKoin the
amount of land which one man may
lease in the future will depend almost
entirely upon the improvements that
will be made by the tenant All leases
will be subjected to the approval OF
the agent, and it is said that the bes
interests of the Indians will have tC
be served before such approval vii
be given. Five years is the limit fol
which lease may be given.
AS to how long the present order
will remain in force, nothing is defin
itely known, but Major McKoin say'
that it will all depend upon how sue
cessful the plan works and this vii
I largely rest with the white renters
| themselves.
The departmental instructions re
| ceived yesterday came as a considera
BILE of a surprise to many here. Thos'
who have land leased on the reserva
ton are said to have had little hop
of such an order being given, AM
consequently were very agreeably sur
prised when the news was received. T.
them. it means much, for they Will no
be required to part with all but on
section of land as has been threatened
| As to what brought about the depart
i ments action they do not know. How
ever. there are some who believe tina
recent inspections made here ma
have influenced the department
finally grant tn suggestion of MaJo
McKoin.

If the county court compromises
with the o. r. & y. company on the
tax issue, the court will be over
whelmed with protests against indi-
vidual valuations and instead of set
Ting the litigation now pending, such
action would only multiply the litiga-
ton.
This is the general sentiment now.
Numerous statements have been made
today to the effect that all kinds of
property in Umatilla county has been
raised proportionately and that if the
o. r. 4 y. company is entitled to a
reduction, other property holders are
entitled to the same consideration and
a general protest against the assess
ment will be made.
Another argument that is now gen.
orally advanced is that when Major
Mcneil was in charge of the o. R. &
n. company, he made direct state
ment to Pendleton business men that
the assessment of the o. r. & n.
property was too low. This statement
coming from the general manager OF
the system was a basis for the agita-
tion' for a raise in railroad values in
this county and as the value of the
property has continued to advance
since that statement was made, the
assessment is considered to be equita-
BILE.
Since the assessment has been in
dorsed by the people at the polls, by
the equalization board. the county
court. circuit court and practically by
everybody before which ii has beer
argued, the general sentiment is thai
ii should now be fought out to a fin
ish and a decree secured as prece'
dent and a guide for future assess
ments.
The matter of compromising the as
sessment at $4,000 per mile is nov
being considered by the court which
will thoroughly discuss it before rem
dering a decision.
1t is certain that numerous protest.
against individual assessments will b.
made If the court compromises will
the railroad. This would only serve t.
complicate the case and further in
volve the county in litigation.

WHAT CAN BE DONE WITH THEM?
County is "A Goddess of Liberty and of
Justice Too Many.

Just now Architect c. f. Troutman
is in a deep quandary over what to do
with the Goddesses of Justice and Of
Liberty which adorn the county court
house. Since the "chicken-coop" or
naments have been removed from the
corners of tn. suilding the two figures
have been left rather more conspicu-
Gus than before, and their present APP
pearance is not in harmony with ar
chitectural ideas; consequently there
is a chance that they may have to
come down from the roof.
The appearance of the Goddess of
Justice is somewhat marred by the
absence of her left arm, in which she
formerly held the scales of justice,
and this fact is said to render her
unfit to longer hold her present sta
ton, as it is inappropriate to have a
goddess thus crippled.

SURPRISE FOR IOWANS.
w. p. Temple Took Visitors IA Ride
Which Converted Them to Belief
in Umatilla County's Size.


j. A. and T. c. Smith of Abba, Iowa,
old schoolmates of w. p. Temple,
stopped off few days ago on their
way home from the Lewis and Clark
exposition, expecting to remain over
night with Mr.. Temple.
They were somewhat disappointed
with the view of Umatilla county
which they had secured from the rail-
road and said there was nothing in
the county which would attract them.
However. Mr. Temple prevailed
upon them to remain a day longer and
see the wheat belt He took them for
a drive over the reservation without
telling them of his destination, landed
with them in Walla Walla that eve
ming. There he showed them straw
berries ripening right along every
week through September and gave
them few pointers on the price of
wheat and fruit land which opened
their eyes.
On his return to Pendleton with
them the next day, they passed ware
houses in Umatilla county where
strings of teams half mile long were
unloading wheat. The sight of the
| four and six-horse teams was some
thing new to them and before they
reached Pendleton they were convert
| ed to the belief that there was some
thing to see in Umatilla county, and
when they reached Pendleton they de-
cided to remain over still another day
and see more of the county
When told that the grain sack bill
of several farmers in Umatilla coun'
ty for one year would buy pretty
good farm in Iowa, they were aston
ished and before they left for theii
homes. they decided that they had no
seen half of Umatilla county yet.

SCHOOL BOARD MEETING.
Promises to Enforce TIuant Law lie
suit in Larger Attendance.

Last evening a regular meeting OF
the Pendleton school board was held
in tho office of DIR. C. ]. Smith. How
ever. nothing aside from routine bus
mess came before the meeting, and the
bills for the month were paid.
Since the board took vigorous ac-
ton q few weeks ago towards enforc-
ing the truant law, practically all OF
the children who are of school age
have been attending, and there has
been little for the truant officer to do
However, there are said to be quite a
number who are over IA years of age
who do not attend, and there is no
way of compelling them to do so, as
the law applies only to children under
that age.
