For the next few days 1t is thought. he will play waiting game. This means that he will simply watch the effect of Secretary Taft's proclamation through out the provinces That there will be no serious trouble encountered In Havana is not doubted but as much cannot be said as to the outlying districts. The province from which news Is most eagerly awaited IS that of Santiago always the hotbed of rebellion and turbulence If there is to be fighting Santiago Is looked to to hoist the banner and the fact that no bad adviees have come from there ln- cllnes the officials here to take a rather hopeful view of matters.

Washington, September 29.-(Special. )- Secretary Tafts proclamation declaring himself military governor Of Cuba Is re- garded here as foreshadowng with all most certainty the formal annexation of the island within the next six months
 Both military and naval authorities agree in this view with remarkable unan- imity. It was strongly indicated in one responsible quarter today that President Roosevelt had come to the conclusion that annexation was the only satisfactory soiu- ton of the situation and that his plans were being laid with such a contingency in mind. It is expected that he will urge upon Congress the desirabillty of this step, probably not in formal message, but in his talks with leading members of the Senate and the House. If the senti- ment among republican and democratic members who have come to Washington In the last few weeks represents that held throughout the country, 1t Is difficult to imagine any other outcome of the Cx- ban imbroglio than annexation. It is learned, however, that in all likelihood there will be no nasty actions by My. Roosevelt.

SEES TARGET PRACTICE

Rarnstable. Mass, September 29.- President Roosevelt visited the North Atlantic fleet off Cape Cod today and left with enthusiastic praise for the officers and crews of the fleet. The crew of the battleship Missouri, on which the President had spent the day, cheered themselves hoarse as he left the ship at 80, for they had had an honor paid to them which no other crew in the navy had ever received.
 The President and his guests sat down to dinner with the tackles When the Missouri left the target ground and returned to her anchorage and the first mess call was sounded on q marines trumpet, the notes had not ceased echoing throughout the fleet when the President called Admiral Evans to his side and announced that he and his guests would take dinner with the sailors.
 Sailors Jump to Feet.
 The necessary orders were imme- diately issued and the sailors jumped to their feet in surprise when they saw President Roosevelt walking on the aft gundeclk and take his place at a table where he and his guests had the same mess served to the sailors.
 One of the men observing that there were no napkins upon the Presidents table rushed to the wardroom to pro- cure the necessary table linens. When he returned the President thanked him, but said he was dining with the boys today" and would have no privileges which they did not enjoy.

Weirdly I whisper with wild delight!

Groom of the river, winding afar.
Crash of the wave on the distant bar,
Sigh of the magical summer night,
Scream of the eagles dizzy flight
The song that trembles over my

Is the broken chords of a thousand

RANGE WARS OvERDRAWN.

The Pacific Monthly for February
contains an extended article by its
editor, Arno Dosch, upon the range
situation in eastern Oregon.
The range wars of this section of
the state are somewhat overdrawn,
but the article gives a fairly clear in
sight into the basis and fountain head
of the matter.
The East Oregonian loves eastern
Oregon, with all its faults, and must
defend the sterling manhood of this
great region from unjust literary Ii
cense and for this reason it must say
that the article in the Portland mag
azine is somewhat severe and exag-
gerated.
Compare the number of sheepmen
and cattle men who live peaceably
side by side, with the number which
are at war, in any part of the interior
of Oregon and it will be seen that the
actual range war is confined to an in
finitesimal proportion of tn entire in
dustries.
The article leaves the impression
that the war is waged continually
when the facts are that it breaks out
at long intervals in isolated places. II
cites but two instances of sheep killing
of any marked severity, while there
are 100000 sheep in the state di.
vided into perhaps 1900 herds. The
small.

test the merit of his platform before
the people regardless of the dictates
of the slate makers of his party
1t is time for such man to arise in
Oregon and why should 1t not be
Harvey X. Brown? Who ever
dreamed that Joe Folk, the Tennessee
boy who came to St. Louis, penniless
and friendless few years ago, should
rise to such an eminence within a
half score of years?
Why not Harvey X. Brown be the
reform governor of Oregon? He has
proved his nerve in the administra-
tion of. the sheriffs office in Baker
county. He has dared to oppose the
corrupt machine of his own party and
all other parties and to enforce the
law in Baker county, where some of
the laws had never been enforced be-
fore.
1t is time for decent and upright
men to come out in the open on these
questions. 1t is time to stand up and
be counted for the right or else be
forever reckoned with the wrong
side. There are only two sides to the
question.
Here's the glad hand to Harvey X.
Brown and his platform.

WHAT YOU THINK Is RIGHT.

If YOU do the thing that you think is

Why, you need not mind for the rest,
For the conscience you own, is your
one dim light,
And II is the final test.
The world may mutter, "Thls thing is
wrong"
Or, "He is mistaken, quite;
But you need not mind, as you jog
along,
II you do what you think is right.
I know that our conscience oft is
blurred;
'Tls dim and its flame burns low,
Yet somewhere or other I have heard
'Tis the only light we know.
Your way and my way may vary
somewhat
In fact, they may differ quite,
But that, as I deem, should matter
not,
If only you think you are right.
I Judge that the One who made us all

Knew we should stumble and grope
and fall
Blinded, but not quite blind.
He gave us a light that our dim eyes

And all will be we'll with you and me

HALF A LOAF FOR OREGON.

Although occupying the most hui
initiating position of any state in the
union at the present session of con-
gress. oregon will fare tolerably we'll,
thanks to the energy and willingness
of private citizens who have perform
ed the duties of paid public servants
at the national capital.
The return of j. n. Teal and H. w.
Scott of Portland from Washington
with the information that congress
will do something for the Columbia
river improvements, proves that the
state is still in the union, although
out of the ring, politically and NOR
ally.
While the state is at the entrance
to its most prosperous and progress
i've period, and needs a strong and
active delegation in congress, yet It
must be content with half a loaf,
trusting to the integrity of the peo-
pie to redeem its lost prestige by their
future acts.
With river improvements, irriga-
ton. internal development and rail-
road building in all quarters, and with
her splendid commercial awakening
Oregon is one of the most promising
empires in the world.
Let US be thankful for the half loaf
and hope for more in the future.

UNNECESSARY FRAUD.

Now wouldn't it naturally be sup
posed that a corporation so rich and
powerful as the Standard Oil COM
pany would have felt that it was MAX
ing money enough without resorting
to the lies and deceptions that haye
been testified to in the hearings con-
Quoted by Attorney General Hadley?
Wouldn't one have imagined that
the big financiers and eminent coun-
sci identified with the management
of the trust would have said: Whats
the use of acting the blackguard and
sneak? We can afford to be gentle
men,"
But they didn't. No pitiful creature
stealing a loaf of bread under the in
stigation of hunger could have dis
played more poignant anxiety to get
away with his booty than these men
showed in concocting schemes to cir
cumvent the law and fool the people.
81 don't believe in unnecessary per-
jury" a lawyer whispered to a too
willing witness. And what the
Standard crowd did was so unneces-
sary.
But, then, if they hadn't been
ready to do what they did they might
never have built up great oil
monopoly and made several fortunes
in excess of million dollars-which,
as every body knows, is a large sum
of money.

MANUFACTURED MILK.

Dealers in what Is known as "modi-
fled" milk use in their business only
one kind of raw material-that is to
say, cows milk. But, on order, they
will deliver goats milk, sleeps milk,
asses milk, pigs milk or dogs milk.
All of these are prepared from the
same original fluid, in accordance
with prescribed formulae.
Not infrequently it happens that
valuable young animals. which, by
reason of their breed, may be w0tth
hundreds of dollars apiece. lose thhir
mothers in infancy. Under such cir
cumstances they have to be fed arti-
ficially, of course. and the makers of
modified milk are called upon to
supply the appropriate lacteal diet.
Counterfeit mares milk. furnished in
this way, has saved the life of many
| thoroughbred colt.
Milks differ very much in compost
| ton. That of the sheep is extraordi-
narily rich in butter-fat, while that
of the ass is in this item strikingly de-
ficient Dogs milk contains three
! times as much "proteids" (the stuff
that goes to make muscle and blood
as cows milk, and eight times as
much as pigs milk. Asses milk is
extra rich in sugar. Accordingly, in
initiating one kind of milk or another
the manufacturer. starting with the
product of the COW, is obliged to
change the proportions of the ingre-
dents radically.
For example, to make sleeps milk,
he adds fat by putting in an extra
quantity of cream. What could be
more simple? To reduce the sugar
content (sheep's milk has less sugar
than cows milk), he adds water
And, to increase the proportion OF
"proteids' Gn which sleeps milk is
rich), he contributes white of an egg
For asses milk he would add milk
sugar to the cows milk.
In this manner indeed. every kind
of milk may be successfully initiated
except, perhaps, the milk Of human
kindness, the formula for which has
not yet been definitely ascertained.-
