WILL HOLD MEMORIAL.

Governor of Idaho viii Soon Fix Date
for Steunenberg Meeting.
Governor Gooding, Of Idaho, will
shortly issue a proclamation, fixing
a date for the holding of memorial
services throughout the state in honor
of the memory of former Governor
Steunenberg. Governor Gooding has
not determined upon date, but il
can be forecasted with reasonable
certainty that the services will be
held not later than February IL, Lin
coins birthday. Sunday, February
IL, may be fixed upon as better day,
but it is the prevailing idea that Lin
coins birthday will be chosen.
Governor Gooding said: "Evel
since the terrible tragedy at Caldwell
have had the matter of public
memorial under advisement. Ar
rangements have not yet been per
fected. At the proper time l shall
issue proclamation, calling upon all
the people of the state to pay tribute
to the memory of our martyred ex
governor. The services will be some
time in February, and every school
ard church in the state will be asked
to observe the day as one of mourning
| for great and good man"

Fulton Asks Time.

Senator Fulton has received notice
from Forester Clifford Pinchot that
the forest service contemplates the
early location of new forest reserve
in southwestern Oregon in the Rogue
river country. Senator Fulton has
requested that action be deferred un-
til after the residents of Oregon in the
region in which it is proposed to es-
tablish the reserve may be heard
from. There is stroong opposition
against making this reserve and Full
ton wants an opportunity for hear
ing for the settlers directly affected
before final action is taken. Senator
Gearin has introduced bills granting
an increase in pensions to Jonathan
+. McKubbin and Martha Hoffman,
also to grant an increase of pensions to
soldiers and widows of the Idian wars

FLOOD IRRIGATION
ONE THOUSAND ACRES MORE
AT HUDSON BAY.
Raw Land Worth But Nominal
Price, Is Converted Into Rich
Alfalfa and Fruit Land.

Winter irrigation is now in progress
in the Freewater and Hudson Bay dis
tricts and at least 1000 acres will be
brought under irrigation his year by
this method.
w. Il. Shaw, the pioneer irrigator
of the Hudson Bay section, tells the
East Oregonian that nothing but the
waste water is being used in the
bitches in which he is interested and
from this surplus or food water, enor-
nous returns are being enjoyed.
Land that was formerly raw sage
brush and sand, nom productive and
forbidding and worth from 81 to $40
Der acre in its raw state, has been re-
claimed and increased in value until
it is now worth from $50 to 800 per
acre for alfalfa, fruit and garden
land.
The most significant feature of this
revolution is that the old ditch COM
panies have not been interfered with
I and the regular summer supply Of
water has not been divided up, but
| lQlc WdJoI III UhO WAhtOA obN OoA@y
spring has been used exclusively in
reclaiming this land.
The warm, porous soil drinks in a
supply as sponge, and when the
growing season comes, the sunshine
draws the moisture to the alfalfa
roots and surface crops, and while the
sun parches the earth mercilessly, this
storage reservoir, this hidden supply,
drunk into the earth in the winter,
forms perpetual source of moisture
beneath the roots and crops grow lux
uriantly.
If sufficient winter food water can
be secured to thoroughly soak the
ground in that section, no summer
irrigation is needed. The earth be-
comes a store house of moisture to be
drawn upon by the plant roots and
fruit trees and surface water is not
required to produce heavy yields.

Ceer Seeking FaVOrs and Lachner Try

w. j. Lachner, alias Billy from Baker
City, was in town, too. He had con-
ference with Judge Ellis and endeav-
ored to psychologist him into recount
ing few gaps in his political fences
for along the lanes voters will travel
to vote for his nomination, What
they said is not recorded.

Silver City Miners Say They Want the
Guilty Brought to Terms.
A Silver City special to the Boise
Statesman says the Silver City Union
has not authorized the retention of
John f. Nugent, counsel for anyone
charged with the assassination of
Steunen berg. The union deeply de-
plores the crime, and hopes the Grim
inal who perpetrated it will be dealt
with according to the law. This
statement was made by John Fl. Han
lin, financial secretary of the Union.
Hanlin received a dispatch from w.
D. Haywood, secretary Iof the Western
Federation of Miners, asking to have
this union retain Nugent for the de-
fense. Hanlin consulted members of
the union with the result given in the
statement. The result is that Nugent
nor any one else has been and will not
be asked by this union to take up
Orchards defense.

seattle's Violent Death.

Fourteen murders and 40 suicides is
the violent death record for Seattle
and King county during.the past year,
not including much larger number
Of accidental deaths. The most re-
markable part of the record is the ex-
tremely small number of convictions
for the number of murders. Such SEN
sational and coldblooded murders as
the one in Seneca Hotel last month,
or the killing of young woman by
John Joe Fyyad, who is still at large,
have gone unpunished. The suicide
record is even more remarkable in its
way, for it shows as many as seven
suinides in one month.

FOR A SQUARE DEAL
MOTTO OF c. A. JOHNS, BAKER
CITY CANDIDATE.
High Sense of Honor and Sound Busi-
ness Principles Should Govern
Affairs of State.

Formal announcement of his can
didacy for the nomination for govern
or of Oregon at the republican pri-
maries in April has been made by
Charles A. Johns, who is serving his
third term as mayor of Baker City.
Mr.. Johns is very popular in his home
town and no person has q stronger in
dorsement from his fellow citizens.
In his platform the candidate puts
himself on record as favoring a bust
ness administration Of the state gov
ernment, that the state school fund
should have laws enacted for protec-
ton, for tax ON corporations, for
state bank examiner, fair trial for
primary law, with Roosevelt on the
labor question, education of Oregon
youth at home. The platform in full
is as follows:
The affairs of the state should be
conducted with high sense of honor
and on sound business principles and
a broad plane Of equality, and to that
end there should be a watchful care
and vigilance over every department.
The high and the low, the rich and
the poor should receive the same
courteous treatment. The laboring
man has the same fright TO be heard
as the railway magnate or the million
aire.
The state school fund should be
treated as sacred, and there should be
no Juggling with school lands. A
law should be enacted, preventing
speculation in or the sale or assign
ment of school land certificates. The
land agent should not be allowed to
have any favorite or speculate
through knowledge obtained by virtue
of office. There should be no adjuncts
to or around this office, and sit should
always be above suspicion. All kinds
of property, including franchises,
should be required to pay a just and
reasonable tax, and express and simi-
lar companies should pay a tax on
their gross earnings in the state.
A law should provide for state
bank examiner with conservative plen-
ary power.
The primary law was enacted by a
vote of large majority of the people
and is entitled to and should be given
fair trial, and should be respected
both as to its meaning and intent
From sentiment aud conviction,
stand with Roosevelt on the labor
question, and am in thorough accord
with him on the question of railroad
legislation.
am firm believer in and an ardent
supporter of our public school sys-
tenn. Favor liberal support to the
high standard of education, and with
rare exceptions think our own boys
and girls should be educated within
the state of Oregon.
If successful, in my administration
the needs and wishes of the people
will be the only boss" and the only
machine" an there will be no favor
ties" and nobody will have pull, :"
and | will give the state an honest,
clean, conscientious aud vigilant ad-
ministration "of the people, by the
people and for the people. +"

GAVE HIM A BLACK MARK.


The Introduction of the Australian
ballot was the cause of a little misun-
derstanding in a certain town, the
women of which, under State law, have
the right to vote for members of the
school committee. The gentle voters
met with no difficulty for the first few
years after they received the suffrage,
since all that each person had to do
was to drop slip on which the ~
yored candidates name was printed,
into what Mrs. Mayville described as a
Large tin cam
BY and by, however, the Australian
ballot was adopted, and Immediately
there was trouble. Little Mrs. May
vile told about it afterward at home.
Il didn't know what ia the world 20
do" said she. THE busiest man ever
saw gave me slip of paper with lot
of names on it and told me to go into
a wooden box and mark my ticket /
asked him to show me where to mark
it, but the disobliging creature
wouldn't; so | went into the box-I
suppose L should say ballot box-all
alone.
The very first name 1 saw was Pc
ter Cameron's. l wouldn't have that
horrid, illiterate man ON the school
board another year for anything, so l
put a big black cross against his name
right off"
"What!7 gasped Mr.. Mayyille. dc
you mean to say you put a cross after
Cameron's name?"
THAT'S what I said,n returned the
voter, triumphantly. I'D do anything
to defeat that man. l did do things
l met Mrs. Parker and Mrs. Brooks on
my way out, and showed them just
how to do it."
Well" exclaimed Mr. Mayville, II
guess you'd better take a few lessons
before you do any more voting. You
elected Cameron all right. The paper
tonight says he won by just three

thing to Gainey in a low voice, and the
latter scowied fiercely at our hero.
YOU see that body, don't you" he
asked, pointing to the corpse in the road.
Il do; and l should say that it was
made body by an ugly saber cut on
the head" answered Forstall.
That man, young rebel, was a Royal
list, and his life was worth half dozen
like yours" continued the major.
Il regret then that he hadn't died in
a better cause rejoined Frank.
"One of Marion's ruffians did that. +"
resumed the major, pointing at the body
again.
II thought one of our sabers made that
wound replied Forstall, regarding the
CHASTITY opening in the dead mans head
more closely.
And have you yet thought what the
consequences would be to yourself, SIR"
asked Gainey.
II am a prisoner of war, and expect
to be treated as SUCH"
Just hear the rascal talk - exclaimed
Cunningham. You'll be treated accord
ing to your deserts" he added
"Up with him! up with him :" cried
several voices, impatiently.
"T-ere's a fine tree for the purpose,
remarked the colonel, pointing to a thrift
ty oak few yards beyond them.
At this juncture the rest of the party
came laundering down the river and join
ed their comrades.
Rebel, your time is short" said Cal
ney.
DO YOU intend 20 perpetrate another
murder?" asked Forstall, in a voice still
calm.

Fashion Notes.

The shoulders of all new gowns are
broad in effect
Neapolitan and milan straws are
both la evidence.
Italian braid, closer woven than the
japanese, is very smart.
Embroidered roses in pink, green
and silver decorate a white tulle hat
Japanese straw, something like the
tea-box coverings, is new and dashing.
French buttons, with the tone Of the
cloth in their center, are beautiful and
in the best of favor.
To trim chiffon with cloth is a popu-
lar fad and the contrast of the two
materials is certainly most effective.
Little capes reaching only to the ell
bow are likely to be good style for the
spring costume that has a princeless
skirt.
The new short chemise consists of
chomise ending exactly at the hips and
is worn under the corset in place of
shirt.
Very smart is a stiff hat with crown
of red japanese straw, brim Of mixed
red and white, and trimming of red
wings.
A very great use of ribbon is made
on evening gowns, ON some falling in
long pointed ends from the belt all
around the skirt.
Among the simple but attractive
white silk muslins, one has around
the bottom a ruffie of shin, glossy tat
feta, tour inches wide, having a mar

row quarter-inch lace for edging on
both sides.
A novel ceinture is made of three
soft strips of ribbon, blue green and
lavender, twisted together in a rain
bow effect and fastened with a fancy
buckle
To meet the new blouse demands
there are collars of embroidery edged
with lace, with a long strip down the
front, that is tucked in at the waist.
There is variety of design for these.
The tendency of evening dress is to-
ward the lighter, almost Invisible fab
RIGS, such as chiffon, meteor and chif-
fon cloth, made up first over chiffon
as lining, with the colored silk I'M
der that.
Circular skirts are here and they are
here to stay, but more for house dress
es than for street suits. When the
circular skirt is used for a walking
suit it is laid in panels, so as to keep
it from sagging.
The fash and sparkle of the empire
are seen in all the trimmings of all the
suits and all the dresses and can be
obtained by the use of silver or gold
tissue, gilt buttons, tinsel braids and
even yellow cloths.
