Big Geese Crops.

Much has been said and written re-
garding the wheat crop of Gillian
county and the fact that this years
yield was the greatest in the history
OF eastern Oregon is now known by
all who read. Great as was the wheat
crop, however, 1t is likely to be sur
passed by the crop of wild geese,
acres of which are now ready for the
harvester.
Arlington appears to be the stop-
ping place for these birds of passage.
and more OF them have paused in
their flight to inspect the country
hereabouts than Rockefeller has dol
lars. Hunters are swarming in from
all directions and the railroads, pow
der trust and hotels are hoping the
goose harvest will last all winter.
Four sportsmen brought in 100
geese as the result of one mornings
work, and this is not much above the
average of a good shot. The birds
are In fine condition and when prop
erly cooked are good enough to tempt
dyspeptic.
Among the hunters here the past
week were two or three country news

BRYAN SAYS ROOSEVELT NOT TO BLAME

Ifore have congratulated the country
that the Nebraska leader has been
larger than the petty politicians who
formerly made their political utter
l.ances travesties on logic and contro-
versions OF political and economic
truth. o. u.
Who's 10 Blame.
The entire east just now is discuss
ing /the proposition: as the presi-
dent to blame?" The president mod
estly steps forward and by inference
claims all the credit of turning on the
light. At Nashville he spoke in a
manner TO absorb every iota OF such
credit, falling to leave room for the
assignment Of even a modicum of ef-
fort to others.
! ApropOs, II is being observed that,
long before the present chief execu-
| tive was turning on the light" Mr..
| Bryan was flooding the country with
Iilluminative thought on the evils of
the dominance of the money power,
away back in 1896, and that at that
time the present president was ST.
lently If not vocally charging Mr..
Bryan with stirring up class hatred
and also with being a first-class
demogogue. while all the tribe OF
newspapers which now so volubly de-
cant on the reform measures of the
president were then denominating
the program of turning on the light"
carried on by Mr.. Bryan and others
as not less than political anarchy.
This latest attitude of Mr.. Bryan
in coming to the rescue of the presi-
dent, when he is so bitterly attacked
is being placed opposite the con-
duct of the president who never rec
ognized in the slightest word the ex-
istence of an opposition which is ac-
centuated with fully MS high ideals as
those which move them. Mr.. Bry-
an has frequently told the people
that the Roosevelt program is large
ly wise and righteous. Mr.. Roose-
volt has not done as much for Mr..
Bryan. And therein has been drawn
a contract between the two men TO
the advantage of the man from the
river Platte,
1t is regarded as settled-by Mr..
Bryan's utterances referred to-that
the democacy will not resort to the
small politics which dominated the
campaigns which were fought for
the late Mr., Mckinley and the pres
ent chief executive.
It is equally settled that both par
ty platforms next year will contain
no matter pleasing to the reaction
aries, in so far as the ascription of
causes of panic are concerned, There
may be differences as to the means
wherewith to cure them and to pre-
vent their recurrence, but that the

Anticipating that they will soon
strike either oil or gas in their we'll
near Payette, the company which is
boring for oil there has asked the
Payette city council for a franchise
to furnish gas to that city for light
ing and heating purposes. The
Boise Capital News says of the mat
ter:
Mayor w. A Coughanour, the
well-knowp capitalist of Payette, was
in the city today for the purpose of
looking over the franchise granted
the local gas company by the city
and attending to other business mat
ters.
Mr.. Coughanour states that the
company drilling there intends to
ask the city council for a franchise
Thursday night for piping and fur
nishing light to payette, but he does
not think the council will take any
definite action at this time, as they
wish to make further investigations
of franchises granted in other cities
and to have a thorough knowledge
of the workings of the company be-
fore granting any privileges.
He states that expert oil men from
different sections of the country
have looked over the field and be-
lieve indications are of the best for
|encountering a good flow and they
state that in all oil fields the gas
proceeds the oil and land holders
there have been given great encour-
agement.
One outside company, he says, has
leased a tract of land on the bench
above the city and put up a bond of
$500 cash to insure their drilling
within 80 days.
The well in which gas was struck
recently is now down a distance Of
725 feet and with 500 feet cased and
the company claims to have sent
away for extra machinery to bride
the gas. Mr.. Coughanour was exhib-
iting fine picture of the last blow
out, which sent gas, sand and water
a distance of 165 feet in the air and
lasted for about 10 minutes.
They were pumping out the we'll
at the time, he explained, and were
within a few feet of the bottom when
the second shoot started and the pipe
was soon filled with sand again. Dur
Ing the heave-up, Mr.. Coughanour
says, shale rock as large as a mans
fist was thrown in the air for a con-
distance.

The news OF the decision reluctant
ly reached by Eilers Piano House to
close the Pendleton establishment will
undoubtedly be received on all sides
with astonishment and regret. With
in the coming 10 days the big stone is
to be closed.
A statement of the conditions that
have brought about this step is hardly
essential at this time. Suffice IN say
that banking interests east and on the
Pacific coast which have substantially
aided in the handling of the tremen-
dous volume of business heretofore
carried on by Ellers Piano House, are
prevented at this time from carrying
out their agreement.
Thus there remains no other altern-
ative. These and others OF Eilers
stores must be discontinued at once.
To ship the stock OF fine pianos and
other Instruments to Portland, at an
expense 'of frelghts, carriage and other
charges, would not be advisable, for

John E. Lathrop, formerly editor
of the East Oregonian. now Wash
ington correspondent OF the Oregon
Daily Journal, writes as follows oi
w. ]. lBryans patriotic support oi
President Roosevelt in the financia
crisis:
Once again w. ]. Bryan has insured
the forward march Of tho army
which is battling for civic reform. II
needed his reinsurance that those
who follow his leadership-the DEM
ocratic masses-would not resort Ia
petty politics and charge panic to the
administration, as his opponents and
those OF his party did when finan-
cial disaster fell on the nation begin
ming in the east in 1890 and reaching
the Pacific coast in 1898.
Mr.. Bryans declaration that ut
was not the presidents fault was
regarded by even the administration
followers here as another proof that
Mr.. Bryan rises above the small cir
transcription of party considerations
and meets the demands properly to
be made OF n statesman.
Wall Street Blamed.
Few have had the liberality to say
so in print, nevertheless, administra-
ton circles were nightly relieved
when Mr.. Bryan was quoted the 9TH
er day as convinced that instead Of
it's being the fault Of the president,
ii was the fault of those who, by
nefarious dealings and juggfings on
Wall street, destroyed for the mo-
ment the confidence Of the people In
the New York banks.
Observers here ar tracing the
analogy between the recent Wall
street panic and that which came in
1890, when depositors began TO
withdraw money from the banks and
created a money scarcity which took
years to correct. 1t is common COM
ment in Washington nowadays that
quite the opposite course was pur-
sued by the dominant party In those
former panic days, when, the strin-
gency beginning on the Atlantic coast
in 1890, under the Mckinley admin
istration, 1t became acute and mani
fest to the public Just after Cleve-
land entered the presidency
Likewise, II is commonly said that
during the ensuing years republican
orators writers and politicians at
tributed the stringency to democratic
rule, and refused in all campaigns to
concede that the stringency resulted
from the periodical recurrence of
time of depression the like of which
had come at regular intervals since
the time to which the memory Of
man ran not to the contrary.

who are upbuilding his cause there

HooT, MON!
The "Kllties" Are Coming TO Pen
dlcton Soon Under Company l.


dlctOn Soon Under Company L
Auspices.
A particularly noteworthy attrac-
tion which will be at the armory hall
for two concerts, afternoon and eve
ming, on Tuesday, November ~. is
the "Kilties," known to fame as
Canadas greatest concert band.
The "Kilties" have been travelling
constantly for the past seven years
and have played In all the principal
cities Of Canada, United States, Eng
land. Scotland, Ireland, Wales and
Mexico, two of their concerts in
Great Britain being before King Ed
ward VII by royal command.
! The "Kilties" come to us this sea-
son with new music, new specialues
and increased numbers, the latest
addition being a troupe of Scotch
lpipers and dancers headed by Angus

been with the band during the past
two seasons with the exception of two
weeks spent at his home in Ottawa,
Canada, preparing for a competition
which he had entered in defense of
the famous Cochrane cup, which
trophy he had won on three former
occasions.
The Cochrane cup, given to the
best all round Highland dancer, has
been competed for annually, for the
past six years, being first won by
Mr.. Johnston of Montreal, second by
Mr.. Fraser, third by Johnston and
the last three times by Fraser. In
the contest which was held in Mon
treal, in which there were eight par
Elephants. Fraser not only won the
cup, but took first prizes for the
Highland fling, sword dance. steam
trews and sailors hornpipe, first
prize for dress and second for bag
piping.
The winning of the cup this year
brings it into his permanent possess
sion and announces him as cham
pion piper and dancer of America.
Fraser returned to the band at
Chicago, bringing with him quar-
ter of pipers and dancers, all of
whom have been more or less iden-
titled with the leading artists of this
line in both Scotland and America.
This troupe, headed by Mr.. Fraser.

"Kilties" in Pendleton, dancing the
Scotch reel, Reel oTulloch High

view OF the fact that there is some
question as to whether clear title
could be given the association by the

thanks the liberal offer.
The committee reports regarding
the sites is as follows:
I've the undersigned, committee

after looking over the ground
thoroughly we have decided on the
sites hereinafter considered, as be-
ing. of those obstacles, the best

start first with the northwest cor

southwest corner of Fourth and ROOD
This site IS 65 by 100 feet in area and
is held at $4,000. The northeast cor

pense of much hard work for the sum
of $4,000. Directly south OF this we
can secure four lots for S9,16O. We
cannot get a figure on the southwest
corner of Sixth and Rood. The south
east corner can be had for $G.4OO
which will include a house and six
lots. This would also mean thirty
feet OF from the south end OF the

mittee were very much In favor OF
Seventh and Main as a site, but no
thing could be bought there for the
money we have to spend.
