CRATER LAKE PARK.
One of the Natural Wonders of Ore
gon VIII BE Made II National Point
OF Interest.

Every year witnesses an increase
in the interest taken in the scenery
and natural beauties of Oregon. Chief
among these points of interest Is the
Crater Lake National park situated
in the Cascade mountains of klamath
county, one of the IA counties be-
longing in the eastern Oregon group.
1t is presumably an extinct volcano
in the Cascade range. Here is a
chasm with a total depth OF 5000
feet. over 1000 feet of this is occu-
pied by a body of water miles wide
and miles long. This lake lies $500
feet above the level of the sea, and
at various points 1000 90 5000 feet
below the perpetually snow-capped
rim of the walls which surround II.
At but one point can an approach be
made to the water.
A little southwest OF the center of
the lake a circular island rises to a
height OF $50 feet. In the top of this
Wizard island is the Witches Caldron
100 feet deep and AIS feet across.
Everywhere are the evidences of
the dread forces which produced It,,
inspiring one with much less admira-
ton for its beauty than terror at its
awfulness. Some five townships,
within which lies Crater lake, have
been set apart at a national park,
containing many objects OF great
natural beauty and wonder. Springs,
hot and cold, medicinal and hygienic,
are numerous in the vicinity, while
its fine lakes and streams abound
with fish. Game is plentiful and the
country about Crater lake is becom-
ing a paradise for those who love
hunting and fishing.

PROMISE TO YOUNG MEN.
The " est Is Still Rich In Opportunities
for Men With Energy and Nerve.

for Men With Energy and Nerve.
There is no other place in the
United States where a virile young
man has the opportunity to make
money and get foothold as readily
as in Umatilla county.
Sheep kings now owning large herds
were farm hands and sheepherders
but a few years ago. Wheat kings
who now farm sections of land were
working for wages just little while
ago, and young professional men who
came to Pendleton as poor boys less
than 20 years ago, are today num-
bered among the wealthiest men Of
the county.
Men who are willing to work and
save, and who are found to be relia-
BILE and honest, have no difficulty in
getting foothold here. Idle capital
in the country is always willing to
help the fellow who shows the right
kind of stuff and who is not afraid
Of work.

Coal mines are being developed in
the southern part of Umatilla county
and it is thought that within a few
years a large coal supply will be un-
covered in the vicinity of Gurdane.
]. A. Mclaughlin, a sawmill man OF
Gurdane, is working on a coal de-
post which he has discovered on his
farm, but owing to lack of facilities
his development is necessarily slow.
The coal is of a good grade and the

New and Modern Machinery the Only Absolutely and

The Walters flour mill, which was
built In this city in 1892 by mill
company organized for that purpose.
has recently been acquired by Fred
Walters and his three sons. and this
fall extensive improvements have been
added and the mill is now a 500
barrel capacity mill, with number
of improved appliances not used i'm
any other mill in Umatilla county.
Among the valuable additions to
the mill since 1t was recently enlarged
and improved is full Aisop aging
ana bleaching process. which enables
Mr.. Walters to grind new wheat into
flour without having to wait for the
wheat to age. This is a highly eff
ccnt process and saves great expense
and trouble in waiting for the wheat
to age sufficiently to he used by the
baker.
Another new process added by Mr..
Walters is the metallic bins, or gal
vanized wheat bins, instead of wooden
bins used I'm other mills in this coun-
ty. The wooden bins allow weevil to
get into the wheat, hut in the metal
lie bins II IS impossible to find weevils,
and pure and sanitary flour is abso-
lutely assured from this new i'm
provement.

Mr.. Burrell states that they will be
in position to handle coal IN such

As previously stated, they will
also buy and sell all kinds of farm

Martin Winters Confirmed.

The agony over the postotfice
fight was brought to an end last
Tuesday when the senate, IN cxecu-
tive session, confirmed the nomina-
ton of Martin Winters. The con
6rmation would have been made
some weeks ago had it not been for
the illness of Senator Hepburn,
which kept him from his seat Iii the
senate.
When Mr.. Winters will take
charge Of the Office, depends npon
the length Of time required in getting
his bond filed and his commission
issued. THIS will require at least
three weeks, and as the postoffice
department is adverse to changes
being made only at the close of a
month, it lis safe to say that Mr..
Winters will not assume his duties
before the first of August.

will handle.
They will also erect, an ice house
on the property and next winter
will harvest several hundred tons ot
ice for their own use, besides far
nishing it to the general trade ant

A Day in the Country.

Last Sunday Mr.. and Mrs. Chas.
Harris and Mr.. and Mrs. &. K.
Wright spent a most delightful day
at the beautiful country home of
Mr.. and Mrs. l.. B. Leverich of
Georgetown. 1t was the writer's
first visit to that section of the
county and we were truly surprised
at the many elegant homes to be seen
and other evidences of prosperity
of the people of that section. But
about the Leyerlch home, especially,
IS TO be seen on every hand evidence
of what perseverance, hard work
and skIIlful management will do on
the farm.
Mr.. and Mrs. Leverich began life
at Georgetown l8 years ago, with
just enough capital with which to
purchase so acres of land, which
now comprises a portion of their
large ranch. They set TO work,
however, with a determination of
making success, and person but
needs to look abont the place to con
vince him that they have accom-
pllshed the success for which they
aimed.
In their home they enjoy all Of
the modern comforts, such as elec
trio lights, water works and tele
phone, while about the garden
orchard, barns and fields one car
plainly see that Mr.. Leverich con
ducts his work in a sytematic man
ner.
A most enjoyable feature of ou
visit was the sumptuons dinner. |
was one of those good, old-fashionet
country dinners-prepared by th'
hand of one skilled in the art O
cookery, and the thought that of th
many good things sat before us, al
but one or two dishes were the pro
duet of the Leverich farm, mad
them taste better to us than woul,

might be prepared in the finest caf

Returning to the Leverich home,
dainty luncheon was served, short
ly after which the guests departed
for home. Only those who have
enjoyed the warm hospitality Of Mr..
and Mrs. Leyerich, know the real
pleasure of spending day at their
cozv home.

last Monday afternoon for the pur-
pose Of electing delegates to the re-
publican convention which meets III
Montpelier tomorrow. Word has
been received from nearly every
precinct to the effect that primaries
We're conducted and fairly good
number of votes were cast. There
were no contests except IN West
Montpelier precinct. Here there
were two tickets in the field and
quite spirited but friendly contest
was waged. There were 95 votes
polled, the largest number ever be-
fore cast at a primary IN this pre-
cinct. The winning ticket. which,
with the probable exception of one
man, stands for an endorsement of
the state administration and against
the nomination of a United States
senator by the state convention,
while the other ticket was strongly
in favor Of the endorsement Of q
candidate for senator by the conven.
tion.
The victory was decisive one,
the winning ticket polling on al
average of three votes to one for
the opposition ticket. Following
are the delegates elected from this
precinct: G. G. Gray, E. A. Bur
rell, Jas. Redman, G. n. Sweet,
Nose Lewis, w. NJ. Hoskins and
G. e. Wright.
In East Montpelier precinct, there
was only one ticket IN the field, bu,
nearly SO votes were cast, and the
following delegates were chosen;
Morris Holmes, Dave Follick, Alf.
Hogens"n, Thos. Mumford and
Martin Winters.
In Paris there were 81 votes cast
and of the Is names who were voted
for the following seven were elect
ed: VIM. L. Rich, Walter Hoge,

1.-THE PROMISED LAND.
Homeseekers are Journeying to
Shoshone Repervation by
Thousands.

Although the regis ration of ap-
p lcants for land in the Snoshone
reservation will not begin for two
weeks vet, homeseekers are trailing
toward 'sthe promised land'' by the
thousands. Estimates of the prob
able number Of applicants for land
range from so, to 100000 The
question of feeding and caring for
this great crowd is now concerning
the citizens of the five registration
points. The towns are all small,
Casper, the largest, having popu-
lation of only about 1000. Every
effort, however, is being made by
the citizens Of Casper, Shoshoni,
Lander, Thermopolis and Worland
to provide food and lodging for the
thousands that will be there.
The state, county ard municipal
authorities are preparing to see that
the interests and rights of the home
seekers are safeguarded and that
order is maintained.
A mistaken impression exists that
the government intends to give
away land i'll the reservation. Such
is not the intention. The land is to
go, first, to persons who have not
previously exercised their home
stead rights, and to soldiers and
sailors, including veterans. Persons
of these classes, who enter upon
lands within sixty days after the
date of opening, will be required to
paw for their claims at the rate of
$l.50 per acre, so cents down and
25 cents per annum for a period OF
four years. Not an acre Of land in
the reservation will be given away.
At the expiration of sixty days all
lands not entered upon will be
thrown open to entry under al
IOrms OF land laws.
Two hundred ana fifty thousand
} acres of the ceded portion of the
reservation are susceptible to irriga
ton, and large additional area i,
, valuable for mineral deposits. These
lands, of course, will be sthose frs,
selected. Much of the ceded land
is valuable for grazing purposes
J only and it is not probable that the
: entire l, 100, 900 acres will be locat
! ed by persons participating in The
D lottery.
All persons registering for tn,
drawing must do so in person, witt
the exception of soldiers, who may
register by proxy. One person ma.
hold but one proxy. No transfer o
, claims will be permitted, this rnl
g being adopted in order that ther
r may be no speculation connected
/ with the opening.
