ton devoted exclusively TO the
exploitation Of Oregon. It prob
ably contained more special and
miscellaneous information about
Oregon than any other publica-
ton ever issued. II Is peculiarly
useful and valuable to the home
seeker, because it gives the latest
and most reliable information
about SO many different subjects
that the homeseeker is naturally
interested in. Almost every de-
partment Of industry Is special
lied, and descriptive and statisti-
cal information Of q highly valu-
able character is given extensive
ly and in an entertaining form.
Residents Of Oregon who know
its advantages as compared with
the congested and depleted east,
and who still have friends back
there whom they would like to
see here enjoying the good things
Of this favored state, can aid in a
splendid work now without cost
and very little effort. If you
think your friend would be inter-
ested in knowing more about Or
egon and might eventually be-
come a valuable citizen, send his
name and address TO the general
passenger agent Of the 0. Il. a.
N. Co., and copy of this special
edition, with a complete summa-
ry of the several subjects treat
ed, carefully indexed, will be
mailed to him promptly. In this
manssr you may be the means
not only of doing your friend a
good turn, but Of helping to stim-
ulate the growth and prosperity
of Oregon.
Don't forget that commencing
September lst and continuing
daily for two months, tickets will
be on sale at almost every rail-
road station in the east to all
points in Oregon and the North
west at what has come to be pop
ularly known as "colonist rates. !"
These rates are the cheapest gen.
eral long distance rates ever es-
tablished, and enable one to
reach Oregon from any part Of
the United States at a trifie more
than one cent a mile. They are
the greatest incentive to coloni-
zation and progressive home
building of any known agency,
and If the restless, dissatisfied
resident of the east is made to
know beforehand the advantages
he can enjoy here, the problem
is solved and the star of empire
will continue to move steadily
westward.
Now is the time to spread the
gospel of Oregon, so that it may
be heard and needed by the time
the rates go into effect. Send
one name, or two, or q dozen and
you will be exerting a worthy in
fluence toward the upbuilding of
our state. Send them to your
nearest o. R. & N. Co. Agent or
to VIM. McMurray, General Pas

CARNEGIE IN PENDLETON.

The Carnegie lightning is striking
all about Pendleton, and those who
know the methods of the multi mil
lionaire Scot feel that upon a proper
presentation Pendleton will be able
to secure a Carnegie library building.
Recently the towns of Pocatello,
Ritzville and Lewiston have been
made neneficlaries of the Carnegie
library fund and none of these places
offer the advantages which Pendleton
offers.
As an educational center of large

THE FIGHT FOR BETTER RATES.

The city of Spokane and Spokane
county have Just donated $4,000 each
to the fund of $l5,0OO raised by the
Spokane Chamber of Commerc with
which to make fight before the in
terstate commerce commission for
better railroad rates for Spokane and
other inland empire points.
If Spokane wins her fight against
the coast points and succeeds in
knocking out the iniquitous terminal
rate tariffs, every citizen of the in
land empire, including Pendleton and
Umatira county, viii be directly ben
efited.
Therefore every possible encourage
ment should be given to Spokane in
her gallant fight against the railroad
trust and the coast cities trust.
Since the first railroad was COM
pleted to the Pacific coast, there has
been a vicious rate in effect. which
made inland cities pay double rates,
and which has made it impossible on
account of this vicious rate to build up
a jobbing or wholesale trade in the
interior towns.
Under this criminal regulation of
:he railroads and the coast cities PEN
dlcton merchants and merchants in
every other interior town, have been
forced to pay fdll freight rates to the
coast or terminal points. ana in ad-
dition local rate back from the
terminal point II the destination of
the shipment wherever it might be.
The consumers have paid this rate
Every farmer who has bought a plow,
a reaper. a moving machine. a sack
of sugar, a ton of wire or any other
commodity, has raid the reilroad
trust and the coast terminal trust an
unjust tribute.
To break this vicious combination,
is the task undertaken by the Spokane
Chamber of Commerce. and within a
short time the interstate commerce
commission will hold a session there
to hear the complaint of that city.
If Pcndleton business men could go
in a body TO Spokane at that time,
and lend their argument to the set
tlement of the rank injustice, it would
be doing something for ourselves as
well as FOR Spokane.

THE FUEL FAMINE FARCE.

1t is prepcsterous to think that
there should be a fuel famine in the
city Of Seattle, >with coal mines of
large scope and excellent variety
withing so miles, in two or three di-
rections.
And yet the Seattle papers tell of
coal being doled out to delivery wag-
ons in five and 1O-sack lots, as though
it were gold nuggets. People in that
city are actually suffering today from
the fuel shortage and yet there are
hundreds of thousands of rich ccal
land within a short distance of Sc
attic.
1t is said that coal shipments from
the mines of western Washington
have been over 80 days in going from
the mines to Seattle, distance of less
than 50 miles. It is also said that
orders for thousands Of carloads have
been totally ignored.
Really is not this a monumental
farce? Is there net some way by
which the people who compose this
government can secure the necessi-
ties which are available" There is
criminal conspiracy in this fuel fam
inc farce somewhere, either among
railroads, coal mine managers or fuel
dealers.

KING RICHARD III.

Tomorrow night at the Frazer
theater in this city, if trains connect
will he presented one of the choicest
Of the Shakespeare tragedies, king
Richard Ill"
Back through the checkercd course
of empire FOR 421 years, this fascinat-
ing story carries the student of his
tory. On Bosworth field August 21,
145S, King Richard III lost his crown
and his life and the 80 years war of
the Roses was ended in one of the
fiercest battles that marks English
history.
There on the desolate moor in what
is now Leicestershire, the armies of
York and Lancaster met in terrible
combat \ kingdom was the prize.
and the rival kings were there in per-
son 10 contend for the bloody trophy!
In those so years of war, in which the
rival houses contended for the Eng
nsh throne, so princes of the royal
blood were killed in battle. Armies
were toys. Human life was a thing
Of no value. The supreme struggle
Of tie age was for the occupancy of
a throne.
Perhaps the world presents no more
typical development of the warlike
spirit than that presented in the age
Of Richard III His mad ambition
was only a symbol Of the age. Blood,
butchcry, treason, intrigue. foul muir
ders were the everyday subjects of the
age. The struggle for a throne knew
no mercy, 10 honor. no manhood
all the nobler propensities were
drowned in a delirious ambition
which waded through slaughter to be
Eatiated.
During Richards reign the English
government was in chaos. The yeo-
many Of the kingdom was drafted
into the service OF the rival kings,
the armies of rival English factions
were hurled against each other in
awful waste Of life.
Princes who were suspected were
imprisoned, placed in dungeons, starv-
ed. beheaded. hanged. Richard would
scarcely trust his own shadow. He
murdered friend after friend in cruel
suspicion and lived in constant dread
of assassination.
Finally the supreme combat came.
The rival armies faced each other on
the fiold of Bosworth. York or Lam
caster must be crushed to death. The
splendid armies were made up Of the
very bone and sinew Of the English
nation. It was a death struggle for
a throne.
When the battle smoke cleared
away, Richard was found upon the
field slain in the thickest Of the fray.
The Red Rose of Lancaster was tri-
umphant and there upon an eminence,
Lord Stanley crowned his rival, Henry
VII. as king Of England.
There is no more fascinating story
in English history than that Of Rich
ard III, and the War of the Roses.
It's surroundings permit of tragic set
tings and Shakespeare has grasped
the spirit Of the times in his portrayal
Of the characters of Richards age and
court.

Rats as Gold Mines.

1t is a common practice for the
boys in some watch and jewelry fac
tories to kill the rats which infest
buildings and burn the bodies to OBJ
tain the gold. Many oiled rags are
used in furnishing watch cases, and
in time they become impregnated
with gold. The rats eagerly devour
these rags, and few months of this
kind of diet fills the interior mechan-
ism of the rat with a gold plating.
Twice a year the boys have a grand
cremation. The rats are caught by
the hundred and burned in cruel
BILE. The intense heat drives off all
animal substances and leaves the gold
in the shape of little lump. The
amount of the precious metal OBJ
tanned in this way is not large, but
gives the ingenious youngsters plen-
ty of pocket money. In some facto-
ries young Napoleons of finance buy
up in advance the shares of their
fellow workers in the rat colony. =

Orion didn't draw differences, he
merely hammered and hammered,

The Most DeSOlate Spot.
Selected

tSeicCted)
Perhaps the most desolate spot on
earth is a tiny storm swept islet In
Boring Sea nearly midway between
Alaska and Siberia. Nearly fifty miles
from the nearest land, Kings island
is barren rock, SO steep that no
beach landing can be found Here
on the southern side, perched like
nests above the roaring surf and Sc
cured to the rocks by walrus thongs,
are the skin dwellings, of the walrus
hunters. Here the sun is never
shining, the sea never smooth. Cold,
chilly fogs enshroud the place in
summer, while the frequent and
flu ious gales that sweep through
Bering strait at all seasons render
the narrow summit uninhabitable.
Ice locked during nine months OF the
year, the natives depend entirely
upon the seal, Walrus and whale as
a means of existence. During the
brief summer a stray whaler may
visit the island for a couple Of hours.
but this is the sole communication
with the outer world. The Kings
islanders are closely allied to the
Eskimos. They are a fine,
hardy race, Injured to daily dangers
and privations, and are reckoned the
best and bravest sailors in Bering
sea. Their boats of walrus hide will
carry from twenty to thirty persons
in a mountainous sea. .
