REVIVING THE EXAMINER.

The most remarkable Industrial
resurrection which is to take place in
san Francisco, is to be the re-estab-
lishment of the San Francisco Ex-
aminer following its destruction by the
recent fire.
Its magnificent plant was demol-
ished and for several days the paper
issued a combination daily of one
sheet, in conjunction with the Chron-
icle and Call, in Oakland.
But before the building had quit
falling from the earthquake shock,
almost, Hearst had ordered a train
load of material for a new Examiner.
This trainload of material is now at
san Francisco and soon the paper will
be issued in its usual size and invigor-
ated with a new energy for the re-
building Of the city, but woefully
lacking in advertisements-a silent
signal that the vast commercial dis
trict of the Bay City Is still in ashes.
San Francisco without the Exam
liner would not be herseil. And such

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE. But

It's the voice of the people, but it's
nasty pill, this thought of swallow
ing Jonathan Bourne, Jr.
Few stomachs in Oregon's more de-
cent atmosphere will be able to MAIN
tain their equilibrium in contemplate
ing the spectacle of Jonathan in the
United States senate.
But there is one consolation. The
scale and scope of Jonathan Bourne's
corrupt practices will be so diminu-
tive and small compared to the scale
of the Depews, Platts, Aldriches and
Burtons that it will be overshadowed
in the senate.
Bourne does not possess the first
qualification for the senate. He is
not an orator. He has had no pub
lie experience. Take away his money
and his ambition. and you would have
remaining sort of political scare
crow which in Umatilla or Harney
county would not attract sufficient at
tention to get its name on the Off
cial ballot for justice of the peace.
But place this same Ecarecrow in
Portland and clothe it in a Million
dollar fortune, and it becomes a
power among voters. But underneath
the million-dollar fortune, there is
still to be seen the form of the flap
ping scarecrow.

has been used by these stock in the
past and there is no other range now
available.
This is delicate matter for the
forestry department, and care must
be taken to give every man owning
stock in the territory tributary to the
reserves full rights and privileges that
are due him under the regulations.
The stock industry in eastern Ore
gon depends largely upon the regula-
tions and management of the forest
reserves. The forestry officials can
advance this great industry by fair
dealing and justice or they can un-
dermine it by placing an unfair inter-
pretation on the regulations and by
denying stockmen their just rights.
The life of the livestock industry is
in the keeping of the forestry Off
cials.

JUSTICE IN THE RESERVES.

All that Umatilla county stockmen
have contended for in the partitioning
of the Wenaha forest reserve is sim
pie justice. That much is due them
from the forestry officials.
In the parceling of the Blue Noun
tains forest reserve, justice is all that
is asked, but stockmen certainly in
sist on this. This vast range country
included in the Wenaha and Blue
Mountains forest reserves mas always
been the support Of eastern Oregon
stockmen. If stockmen are now de-
MED justice in the division Of this
range area, the forestry department
will undermine the very foundation of
the stock industry in this section.
Large herds Of sheep and cattle in
eastern Oregon and especially in Una
tilla county, are owned because this
range has been available. Take this
range, or any part Of it from them,
and many Of them will be forced to
go elsewhere and the industry in this
county will be practically destroyed.
The number Of stock in this cOun-
ty is close up to the capacity Of the
range area available. There is little
range to spare. II one or two large
herds are denied rights in the reserve,
they viii be unable to secure outside
range IN this section. because the
range in the reserves includes all that

WHY NOT RAISE CHERRIES?

y new fruit cannery at The Dalles
has agreed to contract all the cher
ries raised in that locality for the
next 10 years or longer at $50 per ton
or four cents per pounu.
OF the large varieties it is estimated
that one ton can be produced on each
acre, thus returning a yield of $50
per acre for cherry raising.
This same canuery will contract
every cherry grown in Umatilla coun-
ty for the next 10 years at the same
price, if marketable fruit is grown.
What better contract do tne owners
of arid land wish than this?
Umatilla county is especially
adapted to cherry raising. The irri-
gated districts are peculiarly suited
to this industry. The soil and eli
mate are right, irrigation produces
an excellent grade of cherries and it
seems to the East Oregonian that the
eHllTe country dTpullu E-Cnp, heTIlllS-
ton, Hudson Bay, Milton and Free
water could be converted INTO a cher
~ orchard at an excellent profit.
An increased acreage would also
induce capital to build a cannery
nearer home than The Dalles. Una
tilla county is so far ahead of the
country around The Dalles as a cher
ry country, that there is no room for
cOmparison.

THE INDIANS PART.

Amos Pond, full-blood Umatilla
Indian answered the roll call at Free
water yesterday, in the meeting of the
presbytery of Pendleton district. To
Umatilla county people this is not an
extraordinary matter. We are so
familiar with the Indian. We see so
much of him. We rub against him
and pass him by without understand
ing the deeper significance of his life
among us.
Sixty years ago on the walla Walla
river. not far from Freewater. where
Amos Pond answered the roll call
yesterday, Marcus Whitman was
struggling along with his class of Ca
yuses, teaching them industry and
Christianity. The seed he sowed then
took deep root. 1t was a seemingly
hopeless task at that time. The Walla
Walla valley Umatilla county, the
land and the Indians were all so wild
and forbidding that it seemed folly to
labor among the savages.
But few have remained faithful.
Out of the old Cayuse tribe. so strong
and masterful in Whitman's time. the
present mission church on the Una
tilla reservation has grown. About
so faithful members still belong to
the Whitman church.
The answer of Amos Pond to the
roll call was a signal that the Indian

DOGS SMUGGLE LACES.

Some clever ruses to outwit custom
authorities along the French frontier
have been revealed by the capture of
a dog, says the Brussels correspond
ent Of the Philadelphia Record. Be-
fore making use of this dog as n lace
carrier the smuggler crossed the bor-
der often with him. so that the GUS
toms officers might know the animal.
Then he clipped the dogs coat close,
wrapped around his body yards OF
costly lace and covered the whole,with
fur like the dogs coat
For five years this dog carried Bra
bant lace without awakening suspic-
ion. Then a "friend" of the smuggler
notified the authorities, who shot the
faithful animal. 1t leaked out that
dogs are used for this purpose all
along the frontier.
Pigeons are also used for smuggling.

DON'T NEGLECT COLD.
Neglected Colds Lead to Consumption.
How Consumption Develops.

Nine cases Of consumption out of ten
occur In this way:
Aperson catches cold. The cold 10 NOT
properly cured, and another cold Ii
caught.
This cold is dilly-dallied with, either
by no treatment whatever or some treat
ment tha. is Intellectual, and the cold
continues.
Then another cold is caught and o
cough develops. Cough syrups are re-
sorted to, but they give only temporary
relief.
By and by the patient gets tired Of
taking medicines and cough syrups and
gives up in despair.
The cold continues to develop and he
cough grows worse.
Then the doctor is called In, only to
discover that the patient is In the first
stages Of consumption.
1t was just in this way that Miss
Powell, OF Aurora, Ind, became sick.
She caughta cold, and not considering
1t serious, neglected It, thinking rs
many others do, thatitwould "wear off,"
However, 1t clung to her tenaciously,
and in two weeks she found her health
in serious condition.
Fortunately, Peruna had been brought
to her notice, and she took course OF
this remedy before it was too late.
In week the cough and cold were
broken, and n three weeks treatment
completely restored her to health.
This is what Peruna is doing all the
while. Not day, and probably not an
hour passes in which some one does not
have a similar experience with Peruna.
Cure the Slight Colds and Avoid
Consumption.
The first step toward consumption is
q cold. The next step is a failure to cure
1t promptly. The third step is the de-
velopment of catarrh, which gradually
becomes chronic. The fourth step, the
catarrh begins TO spread from the head
to the throat, then to- the bronchial
tubes, and finally into the lungs. II is
then consumption in the first stage.
Atany time during the progress of ca.
tarrh, from the first onset of the cold to
its final settlement in the lungs, Peruns
can be relied upon to stop the disease.
II you have taken cold, buy Peruns
without delay. One bottle in the be-
ginning will do more good than a half
dozen bottles after tho catarrh has
fastened itself on the lungs.
