No mass meeting of republican vot-
ers will be held in Umatilla county
preceding the primary election ac-
cording to Chairman Frank Curl of
the county central committee.
Although the democrats have called
mass meeting to be held on Febru-
ary II for the purpose of electing "A
new central committee and of dis
cussing candidates who desire nomin-
ations, the republicans will not fol-
low this method but win observe the
primary nominating law in detail
leaving the voters to select their cam
didates as the law intends without the
Intervention of mass meeting or con-
vention.
Members of the republican county
central committee will be elected at
the primary election just as other can
didates will be selected and II seems
to be the intention to follow the pri-
mary nominating law to the letter,
since 1t has been adopted by the state
as the method of selecting candidates.

LEADS CAMPAIGN AGAINST PROFANITY

"Within a very few years man
who uses profane language in any
place or under any circumstances, will
be looked upon a back number and
an outcast from good society,"" said w.
r. Lett, secretary of the AntiProfan
ity Society of the World, who arrived
in the city this afternoon from Walla
Walla.
For the past two years this society
whose mission is to discourage the
use of vile and profane language, has
made wonderful progress in all parts
of the northwest and now has active
societies in most OF the larger cities
where profanity in all its forms Is
frowned down and discouraged.
The plan OF the society is to organ
ize a small club in each city and then
to begin persistent campaign against
profanity, especially in public places
and in the presence of women and
children.
In many of the leading cities hotel
keepers, restaurant keepers, theater
managers, street car companies and
others have agreed to post notices In
their places that profane language
will not be allowed.
1t has borne excellent results and

MEETING OF PROTEST.
Farmers and Stoclmen Want Road
Across the Reservation.

For the purpose of protesting
against being barred from taking
stock across the reservation, a meet
ing of farmers and stockmen was held
at the court house this afternoon
For some time past it has been un-
derstood that Agent Edwards has
been intending to place riders on the
reservation roads after the first OF
the month and that no stock of any
kind will be allowed taken across
Though this was done last year with
respect to sheep, the driving of cattle
and horses has not been prohibited
before. Already the sheepmen have
had a bill introduced in congress by
Senator Fulton by means OF which
they hope to secure travelling prfvi-
leges across the reserve, and the
other stockmen are now interesting
themselves in the matter. Unless
they can secure favorable action in
the matter they claim a great hard
ship will be worked upon them with
out in any way benefiting the Indians
1t was expected that Senator w. NJ
Pierce would bS present at the meet
ing but as he was absent in Union
county, \. d. Stillman met with the
meeting and will represent them in
their protest.

The island was covered thorough

one lone coyote WAS routed and
soon finished by volfey from a dozen
or more guns that We're instantly

After covering the west half of the
island all returned 10 the house where
the barbecue was spread and enjoyed
by the hungry soldiers who had COW
cred about eight miles since break
fast.
After dinner the east half Of the
island was covered in the same care
'ful manner and by evening, tired and
hungry hunters were scattered around
the Island house discussing the events
of the day while waiting for their
trains.
AS the hour of departure arrived
the Island Queen" gathered aboard
the satisfied and weary huntsmen
and deposited them at the siding at
Coyote TO await the train.
Three cheers were given for DR.. ~
G. Bialock and his assistants before
the crowd broke up, in an effort Il
express the gratitude felt by those
present
Too much credit cannot be given
him for the manner in which the de-
| tails were arranged and the tireless
efforts he made to look after his
| guests.
That everything passed off as
planned is remarkable, and that nc
casualties were reported is due to his
complete arrangements and the co
operation of the officers selected tC
handle the crowd.

in places where profanity was the rule
it is now the very rare exception. \
society will be started in this city and
persistent campaign started against
the use of profane language in public
places and on the streets.
81 have heard more profanity in
the presence of women and children
on the streets of Pendleton than in
any city l have ever visited" said Mr..
Lett this afternoon. 81 heard loafers
in front of saloons use the most un-
repeatable stuff this morning while a
crowd of young girls was passing di-
rectly in front of the place, and no
one seemed TO pay any attention to it,
while it Mortified me to think of this
terrible condition"
In st. Louis a city ordinance was
recently passed prohibiting the use of
profanity on the streets and one po-
liceman was arrested the first day the
order went into effect.
Mr.. Lett says that nine men out of
10 who uses profane language admit
that II is silly and nonsensical and ut
terly useless and most of them are
ashamed of 1t when their attention Is
called to It.
He will leave in the morning fol

The North Coast railroad is to be
built at the cost of about $4,000 a
mile, including terminals, making the
total cost more than $4,000, 900, is
the report that comes from New
York.
Preparations have been completed
for financing the project on a good
basis. New York capital is supplying
more than so per cent of the money.
1t is not true that the Union Pacific
has bought the Illinois Central, al
though control has been in easy reach
for the past year.
1t is reported the Union Pacific
has sold nearly all the Great North
ern and Northern Pacific stock 1t
owned and has nearly 100000, 900 in
cash.
Nearly 90 branches are to be built,
the oregon Short Line using over
S25, 100000, which is s15,000,OOO
more than expected.
Rumors say the Northern Pacific
will issue $2O,OOO,OOO of stock at par
to finance the Clearwater line and
lines in Washington to meet the Mil
waukee competition. There is no
confirmation yet, the buying of Great
Northern and Northern Pacific being
a mystery, but said to be for Hill and
Morgan, entirely on account of the
great deals impending.

Washington, Feb. 10.-Rev. DR..
Lyman Peet, for is years head of
Foo Choo college, China, called upon
the president this morning. The
president questioned him closely re-
garding the boycott.
Peet said: THE condition is grow
ing rapidly worse for Americans from
a business standpoint. A large num-
ber of riots are instigated by officials
who pretend to afford the Americans
protection. but who are undoubtedly
supporting the boycott secretly.
Il think the immigration laws
should be revised to admit the better
class of Cinnamon, but l do not advo-
cate the admission of coolies.
THE government should first of all
in dealing with Cinnamon use firm
ness. as all Chinese accept hesitation
as fear. The firmer we act the more
friendly they will become"

Portsmouth, England, Feb. TO-
The Dattleship Dreadnaught was
launched today She is the first war
ship built entirely in accordance with
the lessons learned from the Russian
japanese war, and is believed to be
the most powerful vessel afloat. She
is expected to revolutionibe battle
ship construction.
The British government was the
only one allowed access to Togo's Sc
cret reports and the only one allowed
to have representatives aboard his
ships during a fight.
The attaches of no foreign power

naught
There is more interest in this ship
than in any built since the time Of
Monitor and Merrimac. British ex-
perts believe her to be the equal of
any four battleships afloat.

stockton, Cal. Feb. 1O.--Once more
the restless, treacherous ground in the
App mine In Tuolumne county, has
caved in, postponing indefinitely the
rescue of Tom Sablich and NJ. Nuko-
itch, who have been entombed in the
drift on the 30O-foot level of the
mine since last Monday evening. The
air pipe by which the rescuers We're
able to communicate with the impris-
oned men yesterday, was crushed by
the landslide this afternoon.
At 3 this morning the rescue party
was so near the entombed men they
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1906-02-10

could hear their shovels scraping as
they dug desperately to effect an es-
cape.
The rescuers are digging a small
tunnel to reach the imprisoned men.
The entombed men are now shut
off from any means of forcing food
to them. With the exception of "A
little soup and coffee sent through the
air pipe Yesterday afternoon, they
have been without food ia hours,
and it is feared may starve before
they can be reached. They may suf-
focate, although it is believed their
chamber holds enough air to keep
them alive for days yet. The rescue
crew themselves may be crushed to
death at any moment by a cave-in.
