Range Horses Die by Score.

Baker City--It is reported here from
the ranges Of Baker county that scores
of horses, turned out by their owners
to feed themselves during the winter
months, have starved to death, while
many others are in most pitiable con.
dition. This is caused by the unusual
ly deep SHOWS, which prevent the ami.
mails from reaching the dried grasses Of
the ranges, on which they usually de.
pend for their winter substenance.

Klamath Horses Sell High.

Merrill. Frank AGiams has just
sold 100 head OF horses to Charles
Stewart. OF San Francisco, for prices
ranging from 800 to $3.50 each. Mr..
Stewart purchased the horses to take
to San Francisco and perhaps a large
portion Of them will go to Honolulu or
be transorted for service in the United
States army. Sixty head OF the ami
mails brought 800 each and 40 head
were sold at $3.50 each. They averaged
from 1880 to 1900 pounds each, and
some of them were only halter broken.
This is considered good price.

Lieut. Solely has charge of the hydro

According to Lieut.. Solely the stream

the Straits of Florida, where the depth
Is less The center Of the gulf Is a

WTTHOUTACONGRESS
CUBANS ELECTED IN 1905 ARE
TO BE PLACATED.
Decree Under Specific Authority Of
President of United States Issued by
Governor Maeoon Of cuba-Leadlns
Men of Cuban Affairs Greatly De-
pIore it.

Havana, Dec. BY a decree to be
issued soon under specific authority
of the president of the United States,
the seats of members of the Cuban
congress elected in 1905 will be de-
clared vacant"
This was the announcement by Gov
ernor Magoon to 25 senators and mem
bers of the house of representatives
whom he had invited to attend con-
ference in the palace. After review
ing all the facts developed by the
peace commission sent to Cuba by
President Roosevelt in response to
President Palmas appeal for interven-
ton, Governor Magoon called the at
tention of the members to the fact
that the determination as to the sta
tus of the congress had been reserved
by the peace commission for consid-
GRAFTON at Washington. He then COM
municated to them the final determine
tion of President Roosevelt that the
seats of all the senators and repre-
senatives elected in 1905 shall be con-
sidered vacant from October 1, 1906,
the vacancies thereby created being
filled by an election under the provis-
ional government in accordance with
the proclamation Of Governor Taft,
September 20.
Governor Magoon explained to the
members of congress that he consid-
cred it only fair and courteous to sub
NIT to them the terms of the decree
prior to it's formal PRONUNCIATION so
that they might decide what attitude
they desired to assume After all the
facts had been placed before them Sen
ator DOLE and Tamyao expressed their
appreciation of the courtesy in behalf
of their colleagues and the conference
then adjourned
General Ruis Rivera, formerly Sec
rotary of the interior, says that he
realized the decree merely carried out
an obligation of interest to the peace
commission, but he greatly deplored
it, believing it's effect would be disas-
trous. He said he was firm in the be-
lief that the only means of establish
ing peaceful conditions consists in the
election of an entirely new congress
whereas the proposed election, which
would result in turning over the gov
eminent to the liberals, would surely
result in new Instruction the mo
ment the American troops were with
drawn from the island. The fact was
said General Rivera, the United States
had ignored this which was patent to
all Cubans and pointed irresistible to
the conclusion that if the United
States withdrew it would be with the
full recognition Of the necessity for q
speedy return and the consequent ex
tinction of Cuban independence.

Cracking and eating the sweet new nuts,

The woodland treasures that ramblers find.
Something for cleaners In every field!

a Calamity.
Denver, Col, Dec. with winter
at hand and more or less serious rail-
road blockades threatened at any
time, the entire country west Of the
Missouri river and almost from the
Canadian border to the Rio Grande,
is running literally on little more than
a handful Of coal. At hardly any city
in the west is there more than one or
two days supply of fuel on hand.
Many manufacturing industries have
actually been compelled to suspend
business for lack of coal. The supply,
even for the peoples homes, may be
cut of with the first severe storm.
With a single heavy snow positive
danger will take the place Of incon-
venience.
Managers of the transportation and
coal companies attribute the condition
to the country's unprecedented growth
and to the enormous demands upon
them. Having delayed too long, they
are bending every energy to replenish
the fuel supply.

cept this explanation. They say the
trouble is due to the clutch Of mo.
nopoly on the mines Of Wyoming
Utah, Colorado and other western
states. In proof Of this assertion they
point to the disclosures before the
interstate commerce commission, dur
ing last weeks hearing at Salt Lake
City.
It is estimated that the fuel supply
would be ample but for the seizure Of
all valuable coal properties along the
railroad rights of way and to the CHECK
put by heavy freight charges on de
velopment by independent firms.
