BAND CONCERTS PROBABLE.
Would Be Financed by Surplus From
Celebration Funds.

That the people of Pendleton will
have the benefit of evening concerts
by the Eagles band during the next
two months is now almost certain.
Since the proposition was brought up
yesterday morning it has met with uni
versal approval. and unless the con-
certs are arranged for there will be
much disappointment among those
who will have to remain here during
the hot weather.
Last night a meeting of the Fourth
of July committee was held for the
purpose of paying off bills. However,
the business could not be finished up,
as all bills had not been presented.
Another meeting will be held Tuesday
evening and all claims not in by that
time will be considered as outlawed.
1t cannot be told yet just what sur
plus will remain after all accounts
are paid, but it is estimated at about
5000. Should this be the case such
money would furnish a good satrt for
a concert fund, and it may be used
for that purpose. Otherwise the
money would have to be refunded pro
rata among the subscribers, which
would involve endless work.
C. C. Sharp. leader of the Eagles
band, has been asked to ascertain
what the band will charge for hold
ing concerts, and he has agreed to be
present at the meeting next Tuesday
and inform the committee of the
bands decision.

That an immediate decline in the
price of fire insurance in Pendleton
should occur is the sentiment of all
who saw the splendid showing made
by the fire department on the Fourth
Although none of the companies had
the benefit of any practice at all, the
work done in the races on Court
street was speedy. 1t has been ascer-
tained since the Fourth that the rec
ord run made by company No. Z,
which won first, was SO seconds in
stead of the time previously published.
No. was not far behind this time,
while No. . was third.
In view of the hot weather and the
lack of practice the time made by the
three winning companies is unusually
good and shows the general efficiency
of the volunteer fire department.
Fire Chief John Vaughan is also enti-
tied to credit.
Aside from the entertainment fur
nished by the races the hose teams
were valuable features of the parade.
For the best showing in the parade
No. was awarded first prize, No. 4
second, and No. third.

FULTON OPPOSES BRISTOL.
Oregon Senator Talks In Sarcastic VeiI
I'm Portland.

When asked the reasons why he op-
posed Mr.. Bristol's confirmation by
the senate, Senator Fulton said to the
Oregonian yesterday:
He was not confirmed because /
did not want him confirmed. When
the attorney general called on me at
the end Of the session told him did
not desire to make a recommendation
at that time, and would make no rec
oinmendation until the so-called land
fraud trials in Oregon were concluded.
"As to the reasons why / did not
ask for Mr.. Bristol's Endorsement I
can say nothing. The case Is that 1
did not want him indorsed, and he
was not l do not care to give my
reasons"
A singing arraignment Of Secre-
tary Hitchcock, of the interior depart
ment, was made by Senator Fulton
yesterday. He accused the head OF
the interior department of harboring
a grudge against Oregon that works
a detriment to the state.
THE secretary of the interior is in
his dotage," said Senator Fulton. He
is a childish old man, irritable and OF
intense prejudlces, and seems to think
that 1t is impossible for anything good
to come out Of oregon. 1t is very re-
grettable, and is injurious to the
state"

Through Pcndleton This Afternoon.

With 3s dashing Oregon girls under
his protecting care, Rinaldo NJ. Hall,
advertising agent of the o. r. & n.
system, passed through Pendleton this
afternoon on the most strenuous mis-
sion ever undertaken by this we'll
known journalist.

perience. This is his first trip to
eastern Oregon under such conditions
and he says that Oregon affords him
new experience every day. He has
gathered farm and livestock statistics,

igrees of fine hogs, cattle, horses and
sheep of the inland empire, has in
spected fruit crops, counted apples on
Hood River trees. photographed Indi-
ans and farm scenes, climbed noun

feasted and celebrated with all the
clubs in the northwest and had
thought that his experience was about

this novel experience.

Rubber Plant Grows on High, Dry,
Arid Land and Yields From 800 to
$500 Per Acre Annually-If 1t Is
Found That Umatilla County Soil
and Climate Are Adap,ed to It, an
Experimental Crop May BE Planted.

That Umatilla county may become
the rubber growing center of the Pa
cific coast, is now possibility.
G. t, Douglas, Of Durango. Col, an
agent for the rubber trust of the
United States, passed down the o. r,
u n. this morning to Echo and Una
tilla, to investigate the adaptability of
the soil and climate in the west end
of Umatilla county to the rubber plant
which grows in New Mexico, Arizona,
southern Utah and southern Colora-
do, in abundance.
The plant flourishes in sandy, hot
soil and lives for hundreds of years
without moisture or cultivation in the
sand hills of old Mexico. The trust
is beginning its cultivation in parts of
southern Colorado and Utah, and will
investigate different parts of the Pa
cific coast with view to starting
rubber plantations.
Hilly, sandy. arid land which is too
high and dry for other crops is ia
vorite location for rubber plant
field and after riding over western
umatilla county, Mr.. Douglas will re-
port to his company in New York,
and If everything is favorable 1t Is pos
sible that arrangements will be made
to start an experimental crop in this
county. According to Mr.. Douglas, II
requires about two years for the rub
ber plant to come to maturity and a
good crop. we'll set on the ground, will
yield from 500 to 5000 per acre, an
nually.
1t is customary to extract the juice
from the plant and ship It in liquid
form to the factories where the PLAN

and field are close together II is Gus.
tomary to ship the plants as they are
harvested. to the factory where they
are crushed.
The rubber liquid Is contained in
the stalks of the plants and as they
grow older the liquid becomes more
abundant although the foliage becomes
less dense as the plants grow old.
Little, II any cultivation is neces-
sary and the plants take deep root and
seldom die. It costs from IS to SIC

young shoots from older fields and

A denaturized alcohol factory is
a possibility for Coos county, If
farmers there will pledge 5000
acres of their land to the growing

built. German capitalists offer to
do the building. Their re-
preventative was in the county and
at the farmers institutes held there
last week by the OAC staff. The
matter was presented at each of
the four farmers institutes, and
some of the farmers pledged their
lands to the potato cultivation.
Eight dollars per ton is offered
for the potatoes, and the best lands
there will give yield Of 20 tons,
it is said. One reason Coos is pre-
ferred by the promoters is because
coal is handy for fuel.

manufacture of denaturized alcohol.
It is made into pure alcohol from
