AUTOMOBILE WOULDN'T GO.
Party From Pendleton Walked Six
Miles Into Town.

That an automobile is an uncertain
animal was again demonstrated last
night to the satisfaction Of four gen.
tlemen who, after a breakdown, walk
ed six miles and arrived home just at
midnight. The party consisted of w.
l.. Thompson, G. A. Hartman, F. E.
Judd and f. ]. Burke and they left
town at o'clock yesterday afternoon
to go to Barnhart to see the sheep
shearing machines at work on the j.
f. Smith place. They reached there
in safety, and after viewing the work,
started to return home in the evening.
When within six miles of town the
auto quietly but firmly refused to go
further. No amount of persuasion
could induce the big red steamer to
move, and finally the four men set
out on foot to walk to town. They
arrived safely at midnight, none the
worse for the experience, though it is
said some were thirsty.

UMATILLA DISTRICT OBJECTED.
Refused School Boundary Concession
Asked by Hermiston.

Residents of school district No. 6,
at Umatilla, have filed with the coun-
ty superintendent a remonstrance
against the boundary change that was
proposed by the people Of Hermiston.
In the complaint it is alleged the pro-
posed change would give the Hermis-
ton district 10000 acres, of irrigable
land, two-thirds of the Umatilla dis
trict which they allege would be un-
just to them. Objection is made to
any concession of any territory other
than that lying in township 4, north
of range 2S, E. NJ. W., and east of the
Umatilla river
]. F. Mcknight. of Hermiston, has
called on Superintendent Welles since
the remonstrance was received, and
has so changed his petition as to make
it acceptable to the residents of Una
tilla.

That the Umatilla county sheepmeu
still have a show of securing their
rights, and that before the conference
at Walla Walla is finished the forest
reserve people will be forced to admit
their errors, is the belief of Col. ]. H.
Raley and Dan P. Smythe, legal rep
resentatives of the Umatilla sheep
men.
Tired from their two-days struggle
at Walla Walla, the Umatilla county
delegation returned to Pendleton on
the mixed train this afternoon. When
seen Immediately afterwards, Col Ra-
ley and Secretary Smythe expressed
the above sentiment. However, they
are still in the depths of the work as
they have their case to prepare in
writing between now and Tuesday.
In the conference at Walla Walla
yesterday Colonel Raley presented the
case of the Oregon sheepmen and
filed affidavits from the Cunningham
Sheep & Land company, ]. S. Hos
kins and ]. F. Connolly, setting forth
the reasons why they should be given
more land in the Wenaha reserve
than was allotted them.
In reply Superintendent D. B. Shell
Ter took a stand unfavorable to the
Oregon men, holding that the state
line should not be considered in the
allotments, and that he saw no reason
why changes should be made. How
ever, the Oregon men were given un-
til Tuesday in which to file their case
in writing.
According to Colonel Raley, each
Oregon man claiming land in the re-
serve will make an affidavit setting
forth his rights in the matter, and
these will be filed collectively at the
meeting on Tuesday.
Thus far the reserve officials at
Walla Walla have held that a pur-
chasing sheepman did not acquire the
range rights of the former owner, and
also that the state boundary line
should not be considered in making
allOtments in the Wenaha reserve.
Both Of these points are to be vigor-
ously contested by the Oregon men.
Not only do the Umatilla county men
hope to secure more range in the Ore
gon part of the reserve, but Colonel
Raley believes he can prove that
Washington men have no right in this
state as long as the range is desired
by men on this side.
Should the officials at Walia Walla
continue in their stand upon the two
subjects above stated. an appeal will
be taken to the head of the depart
ment in Washington.

MRS. BRADFoRD's ADDRESS.
Excellent Talk ON the Equal Suffrage
Movement Last Evening.

Those who failed to hear the excel
lent address of Mrs. Mary Bradford
of Colorado, at the NJ. f. church last
evening on the equal suffrage ques-
ton, missed treat.
Mrs. Bradford gave facts and sta
tistics from the states in which equal
suffrage is in force, showing that It
has improved political conditions,
that laws are better and more just
than before women voted, that women
and children are given more rights
before the law in Colorado than in
oregon. Property rights are more
justly regulated and women are rec
ognized as human beings, entitled to
respect and privileges equal to those
accorded to men in that state, and
others where women vote.

County Clerk and Register of Deeds of
TreqO County Law Over Piece of

The Salina Journal says: 81. w.
Phares, the county clerk of Trego
county, is trying to get possession of
a valuable quarter section of land in
his county on the ground that a tax
deed to the land issued in 1898 was
sealed with the seal of the county
clerk instead of the county commits
siOners. Mr.. PhareS discovered the
discrepancy through his familiarity
with the county records. A lawsuit
involving the question was filed Tues
day, July 3rd, in the supreme court.
The land is now owned and occu-
pied by o. A. Cortright, who bases
his claim on tax deed issued to n.
L. Moore. CortrIght had lived on the
land seven years, having bought it for
a small price before the boom. When
Mr.. Phares discovered what he
thought was flaw in Cortright's title
he brought suit against him in the
district court. He set forth that the
law required that the tax deeds be
signed by the county commissioners
and sealed with the county seal. The
deed issued to n. L. Moore was signed
by the county clerks seal. Other
slight discrepancies in the deed were
alleged. Mr.. Phares asked the COURT
not only to eject Cortright from the
land and give HIM title but he also
wanted $500 damages and s1,O4S for
rents and profits.
Judge ]. III. Rseder decided the
case against Phares, and held that
the tax deed was valid despite the
technical error in the seal. Phares
now appeals the case TO the supreme
court
1.-The error in question was made by
George M. Ufford, county clerk a that
time. He swore that the seal was
used by mistake, both seals lying on
the table side by side
