rayed against the republican ticket
and especially against Congressman.
Littlefield, whose majority was cut
down from 54OO in 1904 to less than
lO0C yesterday.
While Maine has always been con-
sidered a pivotal state and her cleo
tions have been accepted as national
political barometers. such cannot be
done this year, owing to the peculiar
local conditions in the state.
The opposition to prohibition was
intense, owing to the sudderness with
which it was imposed upon the state
Had it been brought about through
local option, and the state gradually
prepared for it, the present opposi-
tion would undoubtedly have been re-
duced
The state is republican by but mar
row margin, but it cannot be said
that the result in Maine indicates any
revolt at the Roosevelt policy. Nearly
all the issues in the state were strict

for The democrats, yet it cannot be

national sentiment. since their victory

MIRACLES OF IRRIGATION.

Yesterday the East Oregonian pub
lshed an item abou; the sale Of
tract Of apple orchard land in Yakima
county for $4,000 per acre.
This seems unbelievable. People
not familiar with the miracles of ir-
rigation will doubt the statement
Strangers will wonder what sort of
dope" the East Oregonian uses.
But the sale is matter of record.
And the best and most miraculous
part of the story is that this same land
which last week sold for this fabulous
price was but a short time ago worth
less sage brush land, not a whit bet
ter than thousands of acres now lying
uncultivatad in Umatilla county.
But the magic touch of water trans
formed it. The completion of the ir-
figating ditch gave it new and Won
drous life. 1t was regenerated, resus-
cltated, given the breath and vitality
Of life by the application of the idle
waters which have flowed by it for
centuries.
The apple crop on this land was
this year sold for 800 per acre, the
buyer picking. packing and shipping
the fruit without cost to the grower.
The variety of apples planted Of
this ;ract was the Spitzenberg, which
is said to thrive better in this climate
than in any other. The sale of tn,
apple crop mentioned included only
the first and second grade fruit the
third grade whihc comprises a small
proportion of the crop. being left over
as an additional income TO the grower
This miracle is not impossible in
Umatilla county. The land, water
climate and facilities are here. The
accomplishment of this splendid
achievement rests with the people OF
ymatlla county who wish to do
things.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1906-09-11

For more than two centuries the
fur trade has been vigorously prose-
cuted in northern Canada, and yet the
supply, save in the case of two or three
varieties of animals, shows no formi-
dable signs of exhaustion.
The buffalo, whose hide was once
an important article of commerce,
has disappeared before the advance
of civilization. The beaver can APP
parently only be saved from similar
fate by extraordinary measures of pro-
lection; so, too the fur seal of the
islands and waters of the Pacific. Sea
otter and silver fox have been rare
for many years.
The figures given do not represent
the total output of the country, as
the Hudson's Bay company no longer
holds a monopoly of the fur trade,
Large quantities of furs reach the
market through other channels, the
proportions of the various kinds not
differing much from what appears in
the statistics of the Hudson's Bay
company.

MAINE Is NOT AN INDEX.

II cannot be said that the state cleo
tion held in Maine yesterday is al.
index Of the trend of national politics.
The majority Of the republican gov
ernor was cut down from 26,sOO in
1904 to less than 5000 this year, but
intense local questions were injected
into the state campaign.
The leading issue was prohibition,
the republicans favoring and the
democrats opposing the present state
prohibition law. The labor issue was
also a leading issue, and the state
pride Of the republicans was at the
highest tension to uphold the memory
and excessive tariff policy of Ding
ley.
So the election cannot be said to
have heen indicative Of national SEN
timent. ,
There is bitter opposition to the
the state prohib!tory law because IL
was imposed upon the state suddenly
without preparation through local OPP
lion. The larger cities have fought
It bitterly and this accounts for a
large reduction Of the republican ma
jcrity. The labor fight also added to
the enlargement as Gompers was ar.

THE PROMISE OF PORTLAND.

The East Oregonian has always been
an enthusiast on the future of Port
land as a commercial center. This
enthusiasm wakes stronger as progress
unfolds its magic wings, and develop
ment lays its wand upon the sleeping
resources of the state.
Railroads, ship lines. electric lines.
river highways-all are pouring their
commerce at Portland's feet, and the
growing ocean traffic out of that city
carries away the cargoes as fast as
they are gathered from the rich in
land empire.
The Columbia river is the gateway
to the orient and Alaska and nothing
can prevent Portland from being tht
greatest commercial center of the Pa
cific coast. 1t is impossible to haur
freight over the Cascade mountains to
seaport on the sound as cheaply as
it can he sent down the water grades
of the Columbia and her magnificent
feeders.
The promise of Portland is superb
and the East Oregonian awaits with
pleasure the coming of her CONNER
cial supremacy on the coast.

The work of life has been forced back

stantly pursues that of the greatest
economy and effectiveness. It re-

devoted to reading about things that

THE WORLDS LAST FUR TER
RTTORY.

Consul Gabriel Bic Ravndal of
Dawson City, furnishes an interesting
report on the fur trade of northern
Canada. He believes there is no i'm
mediate danger of the fur-bearing
animals being destroyed, and declares
that there are vast uneXplored regions
in which fur-bearing animals abound.
He writes:
Inasmuch as northern Canada Is
frequently designated THE last great
fur preserve of the world" it is worth
while to study the character of the
supply in these parts, its permanency,
as well as the number and proportion
of the skins obtained. Complete sta
tistics are not available. However,
some light is thrown upon the sub
iect by the following table, purport-
ing to show the sales of the Hudson's
Bay company for the past year:

Collection and Expectation.

The expectation of Alaskan furs
for the 12 months ended June 30,
1903. amounted to S423,6O6; for the
following year. S449,497, and for
19O4-5, $494,764. Great quantities of
furs are taken in Alaska, embracing
those of the polar bear. back bear,
brown bear, black wolf, white, red,
blue and silver-gray foxes, badger,
beaver sables and seals. It is known
that Alaska has yielded great wealth
to this industry, but the extent can
not be stated with any certainty, as 1t
has been the policy of the fur trader
to conceal his operations. and the
condition of the trade are such that
he is able to do so.
The annual collection of furs is a
matter of ceaseless change. Fashion,
fastidlous and tickle, neglects the use
of certain kinds Of furs for season;
the market price of the pelt no longer
repays the outfit of the trapper; the
hunt is intermitted, and in two or
three years the animal regains its
numbers and strength.
Owing to the steady growth in the
demand for furs as a wearing apparel
in nearly all countries, including
those in which they are worn as
protection against the elements, as
well as in countries and climes where
their use is dictated by fashion, and
in consequence of the general pros
perity of the people on this side of the
Atlantic as well as in Europe, and also
as a result of the establishment of
peace between Japan and Russia the
latter country being ordinarily heavy
consumer of furs) fur merchants APP
pear fairly satisfied with the outlook
fearing no serious setback, provided
fictitious boom conditions and infla-
ton do not interfere.

1t is really unfortunate for a state
when the contest in all elections is
for the ascendancy of one man or
set of men regardless of the interests
of the state and regardless of the gen.
eral issues which enter into the cam
paign. Such a fight is now in progress
in the state of Washington and es-
pecialy in Walla Walla county, where
the entire issue is on the Endorsement
Of Senator Levi Ankeny. 1t is unfor-
tunate for Senator Ankeny and for the
state that such an issue should be
drawn. The interests of the state are
larger than the political success of
any one man, no matter how rich or
ambitious.

loxolophodon. 1t unearthed in Southern
Wyoming, where the great beast roamed in
large numbers many centuries ago, by expe

II. F.. Osborn and headed by Professor Walter
Granger. Speaking of the success attending his
search Professor Granger said:
We found the skeleton of the largest mammal
living at the time and for which we made care

the loXolophodon, a mixture of elephant and
rhinoceros. 1t had six horns-two enormous
ones in the back of the skull, two smaller ones

TUNNEL UNDER THE THAMES.

The two ends of a tunnel under the Thames.
Which is to be used for carriages and
pedestrians, have just been Joined. 1t crosses
under the river diagonally from Rotherhithe to
Ehadwell and is 6,SSO feet or over one mile and
. quarter long. An interesting feature which
has not been planned for any of the New York
tunnels so far as revealed by the plans is an
arched subway under the roadway to be used
for waterpipes, drains. electric cables, etc. The
outside diameter Of the tunnel is thirty feet and
the inside twentyseven feet. The roadway for
carriage traffic Is sixteen feet wide and the
footwalks on either side four feet eight and
. half inches in width The headway for car
rage traffic will be eighteen and a half feet.
