"GOyERNOR" GALE AGAIN.
This Time the East Orcgonian Talks
Of "Oregon's First Territorial
Governor"

A week or two ago a half breed
In Baker county brought suit to OBJ
tain interest In the estate left by
Joseph Gale, an old squaw man, who
died in Eagle valley in Baker coun-
ty, and who is buried at Richland in
that county. The Baker City Herald
printed a story that he was a former
governor of the state" The Ore
gonlan referred to him in iiaming
headlines as "Oregon's Ex-Gover-
nor: the Portland Journal took up
the story and had much to say about
Former Governor Gale" All this
is somewhat surprising and can only
be explained by saying that many
members of the staff OF these papers
are only out here a short while from
Tndiania and they do not know any
better. But when Bert HUFFMAN o.
the East Oregonian. in his editorial
column seriously tells his readers
that "JoseDh Gale was the first ter
ritorlal governor Of oregon, II Is

a thoroughly representative one, sailed

There has been a great change in the
value of polo ponies since the $50 lot brought
on by the Westchester Polo Club in 1875.
The Squadron A polo players brought On a
carload from the West last fall and auctioned
of the twenty ponies among the members
OF the syndicate. The top prices were
81 900 and $500, while the average price
was $500.
There are dealers who make a specially
Of collecting and breeding h ponies.
They como on from the West with them in
the spring and follow the tournaments with
the strings. The topnotchers sell from
5000 down, and those not sold for polo
find buyers for general riding and driving
at $3.50 upward.
The number OF well bred stations in the
West has 90 improved the breeding Of the
ponies that nearly all have a pedigree.
Those bred from the quarter horse winners
are especially noted for their hardness and
speed.
In the last ten years Q number Of gentle
man farmers In the East have been sys-
tematically breeding ponies, using thor
| ouehbreds as stations adapted by their
| size and conformation. Some Of the stall
lions have been played in the game, while
| others are racing ponies.
The Eastern home bred ponies are improv-
| ing in number and quality each season, but
