HAWAuANS AT THE DALLES.
Mrs. Weatherlcd and Nine Honolulu
Beauties M District Fair

Mrs. Edyth Tozier Weatherred, the
well known newspaper woman, is
chaperoning a party of nine Hawaiian
girls n The Dalles fair this week
The girls were sent on a tour of the
Pacific coast by the Honolulu Bulle-
tin and are the chief attraction at the
fair.
They had expected to visit Pendle-
ton and La Grande, but so far no ar
rangements have been made for the
expenses OF the trip to eastern Ore
gon. The Dalles Chronicle says of
the girls:
At the race track yesterday after
noon the Hawaiian girls, as guests of
the fair association, occupied seats of
vantage, and between two of the
rnces sang, at the request Of Mayor
Kelly, selection Sweet Lei Lelena"
In their native tongue. Their effort
educed hearty applause from their
hearers who insisted on an encore.
"Alolea Oe," which was graciously
rendered by the Honolulu bellies
At the reception in the evening they
sang "Old Plantation" Honolulu
Toey Bay" and "Hulu Hull Heigh,"
much to the delight of their hearers.

! to atrophy, or waste away through
lack Of nourishment.
Portland's Part In the Drama.
II the state at large is under moral
obligation to patronize and encourage
local inductries, most of which have
their home in Portland, then Port
land shares that moral obligation, to
also favor home people, give Oregon
preference, advance the settlement of
the interior, secure better transport
tation facilitis, reduce distributive
freight rates from Portland to the in
terror, and in every way possible
make 1t easy and pleasant to trade in
Portland and to look to Portland for
everything needed in commercial, in
dustrial, educational or financial
shperes.
Portland cannot stand alone. She
must lean upon the shoulders of her
tributary territory, and in order to
have the confidence and hearty CO.
operation of that territory, she must
use her every Influence to advance
it.
Oregon pours her products into
the lap of Portland down a water
grade from every direction. Every
thing has been done by Nature to
make of Portland a splendid COM
mercial and manufacturing center.
But she must have the help of Ore
gon. She cannot thrive without soil.
The growth of oregon means the
growth OF Portland, and there must
be an interchange of courtesies be-
tween Portland and the state at
large to insure mutual growth.
In conclusion: Oregon people owe
it to the state and state institutions
to patronize them, make them big
ger. better, more modern, more ef-
ficient, more capable of doing their
duty toward the people. This will
insure home institutions.
And then Portland and her finan-
cial and commercial institutions owe
il to the people Of the state to make
It profitable for the people to look
to Portland. 1t should not be said
that any other wholesale or market
center will do better by oregon pro-
ducers or Oregon consumers than
Oregon's own metropolis. Portland

Just why the wheat market here is
so much under that Of the coast cities
there are several farmers In this vi
cinity trying to figure out, says the
Walla Walla Bulletin. Collecting the
following figures, they have comput-
ed results as follows:
Wheat is quoted in Portland-blue-
stem-at SS cents. 1t is worth rs 1-2
here. Allowing for the fact that the
freight charges from here are Q 3-4
cents per bushel, which is the rate
given by the railroad companies,
wheat should bring $7S.55 cents in
Walla Walla. Why there is a diff
ference of cents the farmers cannot
exactly figure out.
But that is not the only "sum" they
have been worrying over lately. In
San Francisco, milling wheat is
quoted at $1.75-conservative-per
hundred weight, which would mean
$L05 per bushel. The tariff from
here to San Francisco, as given by
the railroads here, is 1S.45 cents per
bushel.
This would leave the somewhat
startling price of S6,55, that wheat
should bring in this city. This is just
about 10 cents i'm advance Of the ac-
tual market price here and the far
mers are trying to figure out who gets
the 10. They do not.
That wheat should be S1.03 in Chi
cago and but 76 1-2 here is bad
enough, and they can understand how
wheat is under Portland prices two
cents, but when they figure up that
we are 10 cents under the market at
Frisco with allowances made for
freight, they are at loss to UNDER
stand the matter. Walla Walla wheat
is as good as there is grown anywhere
in the world and that It should bring
prices from 2 to 10 cents under the
markets of the coast always allowing
for transportation-the wheat rails
ers of this valley cannot understand.

STOP THE STRENUOUS LIFE.
WcalSens the Tissues and Lessons Or
ganic Vitality.

The stress and strain OF the siren
uous life in both city and country
tends towards stomach troubles.
The frantic rush for pleasure, mon
ey and excitement is bringing serious
results. Elaborate food, late sup
pers, over-eating and too much
drinking are some Of the causes of
stomach weakness for which the in
dividual is responsible.
Five people suffer today where one
did 10 years ago with sick headache,
dizziness, flatulence. distress after
eating, specks before the eyes, bloat-
ing, nervousness, sleeplessness and
the many other symptoms Of indiges-
tion.
All who are suffering with stom-
ach troubles, and that means at least
two out of three in Pendleton and
other towns, should use Mi-i-na stom-
ach tablets. Nothing else is as safe,
yet effective; nothing else can be so
thoroughly relied upon to relieve all
troubles from indigestion as Mi-o-na.
1t is unlike any remedy heretofore
known, and is actually one of the
most valuable discoveries in modern
medical science.
II is not a mere digestive taken af-
ter the food is eaten, but true tonic,
stimulant and strengthener for the
muscular walls of the stomach, in
creasing the flow Of digestive fluids
and putting the stomach into such
condition that 1t does the work Ma
ture expects of It, 1t Is an absolute
and lasting cure for 1t banjshes all
weakness and debility from the stom-
ach and bowels.
So reliable is Mi-o-na in its cura-
tive action that Tallman & Co., with
every so cent box they sell give a
guarantee to refund the money un-
less the remedy does all that Is claim
ed for It.

sores until the blood began to flow.
This would stop the itching for few
days; but scaly places would appear
again and the itching would accompany
them. After suffered about ten years
made a renewed effort to effect cure.
The eruptions by this time had appeared
on every part Of my body except my
face and hands. The best doctor in my
native county advised me to use arsenic
In small doses and salve. Ithen used
to bathe the sores in mixture which
gave almost intolerable pain. In addi-
tion used other remedies, such as iodine,
sulphur, zinc salve, IS Salve,
Ointment, and in fact / was con-
tinually giving some remedy fair trial,
never using less than ono or two boxes or
bottles. All this was fruitless. Finally

but it did no good. A few months after,
having used almost everything else,
thought would try Cuticura Ointment,
having previously used Cuticura Soap
and being pleased with it. After using

and my hair was restored, after fourteen
years Of suffering and an expenditure OF
at least $50 to $50 in vainly endeavoring
to find cure. / shall be glad to write

MANY LAND CONTESTS.

156 Contests at La Grande.

Register e. w. Davis OF the United
States land office in this city, has just
completed setting the dates of hear
ing in 156 new contest cases in differ
ent portions OF the district and there
are many others pending, says the La
Grande Observer. The demand for
government land is such that those
who are not strictly complying with
the homestead and other acts. soon
find that they are confronted with
a contest case. In comparison with
former years the number of such
cases has increased many fold. The
only safe rule to follow these days
is strict compliance with the law,
especially as to residence.

The following article on the devel-
opment of Oregon was written by
Bert Huffman, editor OF the East
Oregonian, for the Portland Chamber
OF Commerce Bulletin for October:
There are but two major parts TO
be played in the drama of Oregon's
development, and there are two no.
table actors, neother OF whom can
shirk his responsibility in that dra-
ma.
These two chief parts are to be
played by the people Of the state at
large, and by the city Of Portland,
which is destined by nature to be the
chief commercial center OF the Pa
cific coast.
All other actors are subservient to
these leading characters. They con-
troll, absolutely, the outcome of the
drama.
The Peoples Part.
The people OF Oregon cannot hope
to build up their state by sending
their children to California and
Washington schools and universities
to be educated; by buying their
goods almost wholly from Seattle and
San Francisco wholesale houses; by
sending their products to Washing
ton and California firms to be ex-
ported or reshipped to local mar
kets
In order to build up Oregon, the
people of oregon must patronize their
home schools make them better II
they are not now satisfactory; all to
their facilities; increase their eff
cheney, but patronize them and make
them the pride of the state. Have il
said that oregon is able to educate
her children from the kindergarten
to the university, Independent of all
outside institutions or assistance.
Oregon merchants in the interior
and all over the state should have
state pride enough to cause them to
buy Of Oregon wholesale houses, thus
giving employment to more Oregon
people, encouraging more Oregon
manufactures, justifying the invest
ment of more money in home enter
prises and swelling the volume of
business handled by home institu-
tons
Every human body depends upon
the strength of its heart for life, and
every commonwealth must have one
commercial heart or center before
its life can be complete, II 1t draws
its life-blood from some outside,
some distant life center, It is certain
