The people of Umatilla county will
enjoy the county fair pavilion this year
for the Fourth of July celebration in
this city as the pavilion will be the
scene Of all the exercises on that oc-
casion.
The work of covering the pavilion
with canvas began this morning and
1t will be supplied with seats, dance
platform and every convenience for
the celebration. 1t will be free and
open to the public and will furnish
perhaps the best shade and best ar
rangement for a celebration ever en-
joyed in this city.
From the platform in the center of
the pavilion the Grafton and musical
programs will be given and on the
dance platform a free dance will be
run all afternoon of the Fourth. A
free dance will also be run In srinory
hall on the afternoon and evSring of
the Fourth and everything will be
done to make the celebration pleasant
| for Pendleton visitors
The sports and broncho busting
lots near the o. R. G. n. water tank,
and freight depot in order to keep
the amusements close to the main
part of the city and avoid the long
walk to the stock yards. The COM
| mittees will make arrangements with
| the city to hold the broncho contests
in the vacant streets after providing
rope corrals and safeguarding the
public.
With the large pavilion supplied
with seats and plenty of shade there
will be every assurance of a pleasant
celebration as the only difficulty in
the past has been in constructing an
arbor large enough to accommodate
the crowd. The pavilion will hold at
least 5000 people and will be plenti-
fully supplied with seats.
The band concert by the Fourth
Cavalry band of Walla walla and
the Eagles band of this city. will con-
tinue in the pavilion all afternoon
and everything is being done to pro-
vide entertainment and amusement
during the entire day and evening of
the Fourth.
Inc pcopit VI lilt CpuillN are cor
daily invited to come to Pendleton
and enjoy a first-class. old-fashioned
Fourth of July celebration. The mer-
chants and business men are provid-
ing a large fund for the occasion and
will spare no pains or expense to
make 1t pleasant for their friends
from the country and neighboSng
towns.

MISS TARBELL IS NOT
TO co ON THE STAGE
Denies Press Agents Story
She Would Play in ''The
Lion and the Mouse"

Ida NJ Tarbell, whose new historical
serial, The Tariff in Our Times. is
being published in the American Maga-
zine. recently travelled through the
West and South collecting material and
visiting friends. While she was on the
road several time fallacies about
her were given fresh circulation-and
some surprising new ones were in
vented.
One story is that Miss TarbeI got
her information about Rockefeller and
Standard OIL while serving as private
secretary TO Rockefeller. OF course the
truth is that Miss Tarbell never met
Rockefeller and never saw him but
once, and that was in church in Cleve-
land. in the fall of 1903. Her history
of Standard Oil and Rockefeller was
written from documents just as her
histories of Lincoln, Napoleon and
Madame Roland were written.
An interesting story was printed the
other day in an important daily news
paper in the South. The writer said.
What influence the late Charles A
Dana. editor OF the New York sun, had

Miss Tarbell never worked on the
staff OF the Sun and was never secre-
tary TO Charles A. Dana. AS an editor
she had some business with Dana at
the time of the publication Of his renli-
niscences in the magazine-assisting
Dana in the collection OF certain cor
roborative documents.
The latest story about Miss Tarbell
was created by a press agent. The
story Is that Miss Tarbell is soon 20

sidered doing such thing.
In this connection few facts may
not be unwelcome. Ida NJ Tarbell was
born in Erie County. Pa. and is
graduate of Allegheny College. located
at Meadville, Pa. After service as a
school teacher in Poland. Ohio, she be-
came associate editor of The Chautau-
guam in 1888. and continued In that po-
sitlon until 1891. From 1891 until 1894
she was a student in Paris at The Sor-
bonne and College de France. From
1894 until May, 1906, she was associate
editor of MeClure's Magazine In July.
1906. she became associated with John
s. Phillips, William Allen White F. p

NEW PROCESS FOR
THE MAKING OF PAPER
Invention to Utilize Cotton
Stalks May Revolutionize
Business of Mills

Products of chemical process whose
development may effect a wonderful
revolution in the paper industry of this
country are TO be seen in the home of
the inventor. DR.. Robert r. Roberts. in
this city.
DIR. Roberts Investigations for the
utilization of the cotton plant in manu-
factures is the. discovery which is now
ready for public introduction. Cotton
seed can be delinted. he says, in five
minutes without injuring the germinat-
ing qualities OF the seed and without
affecting the value for the manufacture
of oil.
In the delinting process all defective
seed is cast out. thereby enabling the
planter to use the drill machine in
planting cotton, eliminating in a meas
out the surplus cotton stalks.
He claims. furthermore, that his de-
linting process will effectively destroy
the boil weevil, no matter whether the
eggs or larvae are laid in the GER
minating point of the seed or are hi
bernating in the form of a beetle in
the loose cotton seed.
The seed, according to DR.. Roberts,
can be delinted for about IS a ton BY
the process cotton stalks can be con-
verted In twenty-four hours into a
fine fiber similar to cotton in texture,
which he claims will make the finest
paper in the world.
In addition to paper stock, various
by-products, such as alcohol, guneotton.
nitrogen and smokelesS powder can be
produced in paying quantities. The
time is not far distant. says the in
ventor when plants for the manufac-
ture of paper from both cotton stalks
and cotton seed hulls. equipped with all
modern appliances and machinery and
also fitted. to save and utilize the by
products, will be built and operated
throughout the cotton growing States
of the South.
The establishment of these mills VIII
develop a new industry of enormous
proportions and utilize two waste
products. which at present are of COM
paratively small value. 1t will check
the inordinate and increasing cost of
all grades of paper.
II Is estimated that on an area OF
land producing a bale of cotton at
least one ton of cotton stalks can be
gathered Upon this calculation the
new industry could depend annually
upon 100000 tons of cotton stalks
and at least 100000 tons OF cotton hulls
as raw material for paper stock.
This would furnish not only the home
paper market. but also permit of the
export of either paper or pulp or the
finished products of various. kinds to
foreign countries.-Washing Star.
