In the legal battle waged between
the state of oregon and the Portland
General Electric company, the first
encounter was won by the comnany.
says the Oregon Daily Journal. The
state is suing for 10 per cent of the
net earnings of the locks at Oregon
CITY, now owned by the company,
from 1874 to 1904, claiming this
money is due on account of a con-
tract made with the company that
built the locks at the time when the
this sfass wJK. 1'0pr''''d 100000 to aid in
Frederick V, Holman, attorney for
the company, filed demurrer to a
part of the complaint, alleging that
owing to the statute of limitations no
moneys could be sued for that We're
alleged to have been collected before
1897. Presiding Judge Arthur L..
Frazer this morning sustained the de-
murrer.
In arguing the demurrer attorneys
for the state contended the statute
of limitations did not run against the
commonwealth, that the giving of the
subsidy to the company gave the state
an interest in the water Improvement,
that this interest in the locks could
also be claimed in that they were
built on portion of the states prop
erty and that the company was acting
as an agent for the state.
Judge Frazer held that under a law
passed in 1903 the statute of limita-
tions could not run against the state
hereafter nor six years prior to the
passing of the bill This decision
wipes out a large portion of the de-
mand made by the state.
The action was begun several weeks
ago by Attorney General a. NJ. Craw-
ford and District Attorney John Man
ming.
The locks at Oregon City were built
by the willamette Falls Canal <
Locks company. whose interests have
since been absorbed by the Portland
General Electric company The for
mer company asked aid from the
state. This was at last granted upon
the condition that the state was to re-
ceiye 10 per cent of the net earnings

FIDDLING AWAY.
The Case of Helix and Other Nearby
Towns Cited as an Example.

The advertiser who is fiddling
away on old strings should sit up and
take notice.
Circulation has become a definite
thing. a definite force-a matter of
facts and figures.
Circulation either does cover its
field or it does not.
The East Oregonian goes into most
of the Pendletcn homes besides hay-
ing a circulation throughout the coun-
try of which we are very proud. Ow-
goes to practically every intelligent
farmer within a radius of so miles
and that those more distant take the
Weekly East Oregonian, this paper
covers the field far more thoroughly
than any other newspaper. Just as
an example of why the East Oregon
ian is taken IN preference to other
papers, especially morning papers, the
case of Helix can be cited. We have
60 subscribers in Helix for the East
Oregonian, 20 of which are for the
Daily and the rest for the Semi
Weekly. This is several times as
many as any other paper. The train
leaves Pendleton for Helix at u. M.
putting the Daily East Oregonian in
Helix at o'clock, or two hours after
it is issued. When the morning pa.
pers arrive there their news is an
cient history. hence the insignificant
number of persons who take the
morning paper. The same is true OF
Adams, Athena, Weston, Milton and
Freewater. The same is true here in
Pendleton, as the paper in the morn
ing must of necessity repeat what has
already been told the evening before
i nthe East Oregonian, which being
printed at the close of the day, gives
the news the day it happens.
Circulation brings results to the ad-
vertiser when it is home circulation,
paid circulation and If the paper is
read for its news value.
The East Oregonian is all this and
the intelligent advertiser knows it.
If YOU are not making q sufficient
use of our columns increase your
space and give proper attention to the
composition of your advertising and
you will increase your business. The

more so, than natural coloring, the causes of which are yet undiscovered: the same causes produce yellowness of flesh. which is universally regarded as a serious objection in veal and beef
 In the eastern and middle states. the production of veal is already adding an important item to the credit side of the dairy farmers balance sheet. No kind or quality of veal is in so great demand as that of the Holstein- Fries ian breed and it's grades. Veal is also an important source of revenue to the dairymen of North Holland and Fries land. They supply vast quantities to the English markets.
 Cows of this breed make an excellent quality of beef Whatever may be the breed, a dairy herd in no country lasts above six to ten years; age, accidents and failures to breed constantly de- plete it. If the cows thus dropped out cannot be prOfitably turned to beef the capital in the herd is totally lost during every period of six to ten years. Cows of this breed are good feeders and their beef commands a high price.

H0LSTEIN FRIESIANS
 GIFT OF THE DUTCH
The Growing Popularity Ofthis Breed
 of Cattle.

Ever since the territorial fair more interest has been taken in fine stock that had ever before been manifested in this part of the country. One of the owners of priZe-winners was Henry Renaud, of Alhambra, who some years ago began the introduction of Holstein Friesian cattle into the valley and now ne has large and flourishing herd of as fine cattle of this breed as can be found in the United States.
 These cattle are rapidly occupying the richer and more important dairy sections of this country, hence there is a great demand for information in regard to them.
 These cattle were introduced from the provinces of North Holland and Friesland, a section of the kingdom of Netherlands, bordering on the North sea, commonly called Holland. The dairymen of these provinces are de- scendants of the ancient Friesians, and their cattle are lineal descendants of the cattle bred by them two thousand years ago. From the earliest account of dairy husbandry these cattle have been used and developed for dairy purposes.
 North Holland has been mainly de- voted to cheese production. and Fries land to butter production. As an il- lustration of the extent of the latter production the following statistics are quoted from Chambers Encyclopedia: "The area of Friesland is 1,253 square miles (53 less than the state of Rhode Island). In 1874 England imported from Friesland 4O,763 cwt. of cheese. and 266, ,O41 cwt. of butter" Reduced to pounds these importations were A. of pounds of butter. In 1879 the number of cows in Friesland was 144,S02. As suming an equal number in 1874, this importation of butter from Friesland was an average of 205 3-4 pounds for all the cows, old and young owned in that province. Even if there were no home consumption and no sales to other countries, these exports alone sufficiently demonstrate the great ca pacitv of this breed. This breed Is found in more countries, occupying more territory, and probably producing more milk, cheese and butter than all other dairy breeds combined.
 Quantity of production and persist ency of milking during long periods are well known characteristics of this breed. Dropping her first calf at about two years old, an average COW of this
 
 from 5000 to 6,0O0 pounds of milk in ten months and she will increase this production each and every year until, at five years old, she will give from 1000 to 5000 pounds. The quality of this milk will range from to 4 per cent. fat, and from to 10 per cent solids not fat. If fed to their ability to digest and assimilate food, the ma iority of these cows will exceed this production. Before the introduction of this breed. from $500 to 4,O0O pounds per annum were regarded as extreme high averages for the cows of this country. We think 1t Is sale to affirm that the introduction of this breed has raised directly or indirectly the average of American cows from 1.5eO to 2,OOO pounds. One of the cows of the earliest permanent importation yielded 4.OOS 7-S pounds of milk in nine weeks, the highest day yield be-
