cases are known Of redskins becoming
drunk from overindulgence in lemon

any conditions that could be brought
about by their imbibing toe freely of

Notwithstanding that the United
States circuit court of appeals decid-
ed when passing an opinion on a writ
of habeas corpus and certiorari in
the Dick case, Dick having been found
guilty of introducing liquor on the
Nez Perce reservation, that he had a
right to do this, the United States at
torney's Office in Idaho will continue
to wage warfare against liquor traffic.
Statement by Mr.. johnson.
In an interview with a representa-
tive Of the Evening Teller this morn
ing, Miles s. johnson, United States
deputy district attorney for Idaho,
gave out the following:
I'm the Dick case, the United States
attorneys Office of this state took an
appeal to the United. States supreme
court of appeals and the supreme court
held that the circuit court of appeals
had no jurisdiction to issue that kind
of writ, but 1t failed to pass on the
merits of the case. The case is now
before the supreme court to be heard
at the October term on it's merits.
Notwithstanding the decision of the
circuit court Of appeals holding that
II was lawful to introduce liquor on
the Nez Perce reservation, the United
States district attorneys office of Ida
no has at all times announced that
prosecutions will follow in all cases
where it is shown that liquor has been
introduced on the reservation until
such time as the United States su-
preme court shall hold that it is law
ful to introduce liquor there, An in
terview with United States Attorney
Ruick to this effect has already been
published in the Evening Teller and
Mr.. Ruick reiterated his stand in an
interview published in the Boise
Statesman September L.
The opinion of the circuit court of
appeals In the Dix case was rendered
October g. 1905. and is published in

Safe From TuberculOsfS.

Berlin, Feb. S. Professor Emil Won
Bering, the discoverer Of the diphtheria
serum. addressing the German Agricul-
tural Conference today, announced the
determination to adhere to the resolu-
ton which he promulgated in Paris-of
keeping his tuberculosis treatment
secret till Autumn.
The professor discussed lengthily the
method Of preventing consumption by
imm unizing milch cows. The aim is to
Sc ure mich having immunizing pro-
perties. He claims to have approxim-
ately solved this problem. Cows are
treated when very young with fluid
which Professor Bering calls tuberlo Sc.
1t is injected und er the skin of the
young cows and repeatedly for two or
three weeks. The remedy at first was
ve-y costly, because almost imposs-
ible TO preserve it in good condition.
but m-thod has recently beeI dis
covered 10y which it can be preserved
Satisfactorily and at moderate cost.
Professor Bsring also treated cows
which showed a yirulent type OF tGber-
culosis in their milk. His theory is
that children fed on milk from cows
rendered immune through his treatment
become immune themselves.

May Keep Troops in China.

Pekin, Feb. S-The trend of events
in China since the powers assented to
Emperor Williams proposal to with
draw their troops from that country has
induced them TO reconsider the matter,
All the governments except Germany
having forces in North China, their
withdrawal is now an open question.
Their d scision will depend upon the de-
yelopments of the next few months.
The foreign residents in China strong.
Is oppose the withdraw of the troops.
The proposals of the Chinese IN the
negotiations with Russia include fixing
a date for the with drawl of the railway
guards, the evacuation of Harb n, the
relinquishm mt of certain lands and

Deserve Medals.

For heroism rarely equalled and
never surpassed the names of Engineer
W. H. Swain and Fireman Louis Nor.
gan of 0. R. & n. train No. will be
submitted to the management of the
Carnegie hero fund. 1t is thought that
no participants in railroad disaster
were more deserving of q medal in re-
cognition of the highest type of bravery
than are these two men who thought
not of themselves but rode into the very
Jaws OF death in an effort to save those
WHO were in their keeping.
Engineer Swain stayed in his cab un.
Ill human endurance failed, then crawl
ed over the tender to uncouple the tubes
ot the air brakes. With flesh peeliug
from his hands whenever he touched
the tubes he worked until the bones
were bare and was still irving to save
the train when the collision came.
Fireman Morgan took his life in his
hands when he broke the window in the
cab and braved the sizzling clouds of
steam to close the throttle. He re-
manned on the engine trying to find the
control ing lever until he saw that fur
ther effort would he madness.
Both men risked their lives to save
others. In The list OF those 10 whom
hero medals have been bestowed there
il none who could have done more than
offer his life that others might live.

Elgin, Or, Feb 8.-Wil the o. R. &
N. Co. extend its line to Jogeph next
season or will it stop at the mouth OF
the Wailowa river? This is question
that is causing no little concern to the
people of Union and Wallowa counties.
Little progress is being made on the
l7-mile contract to the mouth of the
Wallowa river. All surveying parties
have been called IN. No contract has
been let for the rest of the distance to
Joseph. 1t was officially stated that
the road would be completed to Joseph
during 1906. This was made while op-
position was in the field. but as soon as
be was restrained from continuing op.
erations nothing official was given out
as to whether the road would be COM
pleted or not; :
The contract for grading from the
mouth Of the Wallowa river to Joseph
was to have been let February5. Sew
eral railroad construction companies
had representatives looking over the
proposed route, ana George McCabe,
who Las the contract for the first II
miles, was bidder and he has heard
nothing regarding the awarding of the
contract The surveyors have ali been
called away to "don't know where we're
going" before even the work OF cross
sectioning had been completed.
The completion of the grade to the
mouth of the Wallowa river was to have
been completed by the f .st of the year,
as was stated by the contr actor, but 90
lar about three fifth of the work has
been completed. The steam shovel is
only one mile from Elgin and is working
about hall the time. Unfavorable
weather conditions and snow have
hindered operations to some extent,
but there has never been large enough
force at any time to have fin
shed the contract in the time promised.
As to the road being extended to
Joseph, tie indications are that it will

SHEEP o. RESERVES.
Idaho Growers Feel That They
Have a Grievance.

Boise, Idaho, Feb 1O.-A special
meeting of the Idaho Woo!growers' As
soclation has been ca led to meet in this
city Wednesday, February 81, in re-
sponse to a general demand on the part
OF the sheepman of the state. tor a recon-
sideration of the resolutions adopted at
the annual convention at Weiser, Dec
ember IL, commenting the Forest Re.
serve Service, The meeting was called
today bv President Fred w. Gooding
and Secretarv J. E. Clinton, Jr., follow
ing Mr.. Gooding's conference with Chief
Forester Pinchot iu Denver, January 27.
+, There are three objections to the regu.
lstions adopted by the Forestry Service
that are made by the sheeplr1 al OF the
state. The first is that the Washington
authorities have decided, without refer.
ence to the wishes of the sheepmen who
have special knowledge of the ground,
that no sheep shall be admitted to the
forest reserves until June 10
1t is urged that the reserves take IN
country so low down that they include O
very large portion of the Spring ranges.
This being the fact, say the sheepmen,
and the sheep being unable to go upon
this range until in June. there is every
prospect that much of the Spring range
will be drisd up before the sheep get to
it, and the consequent loss in early ship
ments will be heavy. Secretary Clinton
stated this evening that in his opinion
not over so per cent of the early ship
ments to market could be made that
should be.
1t is further alleged by the sheepmen
that discrimination has been made
against the sheep industry. in that while
20 charge is made for colts and calves
under six months of age. although they
nay Craze for the entire season lambs
must pay fee of 21s cents each, or half
price, for being on the reserves, notwIth-
standing they are very frequently on the
ange for only a couple of months before
,elng shipped TO market.
The sheepmen feel that, although thew
ndorsed the forest reserve policy at the
\ eiser meeting, have appointed commit
ees, at the request OF Forester Pinchot.
o confer with forest reserve officials and
AVE complied with all reasonable re-
nests that have been made, they have
ot been treated in a proper manner by
he Forestry Buresu.

ORGANIZATION NECESSARY
Morrow County Sheepmen Must
Unite Efforts.

The following letter from R. F.
Hynd will be of interest to sheep.
men:
Iu another part of this issue ap-
pears a call for the sheepmen of
Morrow county to meet and reor-
ganize their Woolgrowers Associa-
tion. Under existing conditions
such an action is necessary at this
time. With the prospect Of the
mountain range being converted
into forest reserve at an early
date, leaving the sheepmen at the
mercy of the Forest Supervisor, q
united effort must be made to Sc
cure for Morrow county it's share
of the summer range. With strong
wool organizations in Umatilla,
Wheeler and Wasco counties, and
strong cattle organizations in the
counties south of US, all fighting
for their share of the summer
range, the sheepmen of this county
can't afford to ignore their organi-
zatioD, for only through a united
effort can their share of the noun
tain range be secured. This ap-
plies to the "yearling" sheepmen
as we'll as to those who summer
their sheep in the Blue mountains,
for without summer range no fall
lambs could be secured for the
winter ranges.
The manner of delivering year.
lines to buyers this spring is caus-
ing some dissatisfaction, and as
usual the buyers are having their
way. Surely noibetter season than
this could be found for the sheep
niJ.l to make a united stand and
make the buyers receive the sheep
at the stockyards subject to county
inspection, leaving them to attend
to their own dipping if such is re-
luired.
Not less than S2500 was lost last
,eason through wool contracts,-|
enough to support an organization
or life time, and this season
lates have again been arranged by
he Stats Woolgrowers' Association
Which will appear in next weeks
Gazette. A very little bracing up
" an organization, such as was
lone at Antelope lost season, would
ave saved the sheepmen of this
district the above sum. Let the
heepmen get together and figure
7hether it would not be we'll to
old their wool for the sales this
eason, and also discuss other mat
ers to their mutual advantage.
