Homeseeker Says Washington Leads
As Choice of Colonists.

]. 4. Houser, of Peoria, ILL.,, who
is tarrylng few days in the valley
says that in his opinion the facilities
of western. railroads are wholly in
adequate to meet the demand for
transportation of tourists and home
seekers to the northwest at this time
says the Yakima Republic. Wheth-
or or not they may be increased fur
ther this fall and winter is to be
serious problem, he things.
1.-THE passenger trains coming west
over the popular lines now are crowd
ed to a condition of positive discom-
fort" he said. "On some of the
western divisions 1 observed that the
isles of the coaches were crowded
with passengers who had paid for
better accommodations, but who
could not obtain seats.
"They were so anxious to reach the
northwest that they were willing to
stand up the greater part of the way.
Many complained, of course, but
there was no relief for them. the al
tentative being that they might either
walk or wait.
II have been into California this
fall and also into oregon, but the
greatest volume of travel appears to
be to the extreme northwest, the state
of Washington receiving the greatest
number of homeseekers. Oregon is
next-a close second.
I'm conversations with many of the
passengers learned that they had in
most cases selected the localities In
which they would locate. They ap-
peared to have plenty of money on
khich to make a good start
having sold everything in the east
that would bring them a penny. There
are many foreigners, of course, but
in the main they seem to be prosper
Gus. Swedes predominated in the
foreign element"

nifty the PendletoR Savings bank has
decided to add department for saw
ings. The Pendleton Savings bank Is
one of the oldest and strongest COM
mercial banks in eastern Oregon.
In its former office it was cramp-
ed for room, but in its present mag
nificent quarters ample provision has
been made to add to this feature and
cages have been provided for the
convenient handling of the business.
The plan adopted is to use the
pocket safes, which will be loaned
to depositors without charge.
Many will wish to deposit consid-
cradle sums in this department, while
others in fact the majority, will it
for small savings and the gradual
building up and accumulation of an
amount large enough for investment.
An account can be started in this
department with a sum as small as
one dollar, which secures the loan of
one of the small leather covered
pocket safes The key to the safe

This man was a well-to-do farmer
in the east, but getting the mining
fever little over a year ago, he went
to Mexico and sank his savings into
poor property to find that he was
ruined financially and must turn to
toll to live. Too proud to return
home and admit his failude, he wrote
a brief letter in which he explained
his circumstances, telling his promis-
ed bride that he would go away and
begin again and she would not hear
from him until he had again built up
a fortune, as he could not think of
asking her to share his poverty and to
become the wife Of a poor man.
Upon receiving the letter, the
young lady, who is OF rich family,
left at once for Mexico with the de-
termination of finding and marrying
the man she loved regardless Of the
fact that his fortune had been swept
away.
Upon arriving in Mexico she found
he had gone to Wyoming, and she
traced him to several mining camps
there, only to find that he had be-
come dissatisfied and left, and now
she knows he is within the borders
of the Gem state and she is still
hunting for him, and although she
has undergone many hardships and
suffered from exposure in making
long journeys, she states she will
never give up the search until she
finds the man she loves and can
share with him the life which he
must lead among the mining camps
of the west.

sAUsLE OF SUMNER GIRL WoR.
SHIPPED BY PRIMITIVE MAN.
When She Sticks Ornament In Her
Shirt Waist She Should Know That
It ls One Of the Great Religious
Symbols Of the World.

Boston.-The swastika Is Just now
having remarkable vogue as an orna-
ment for woman's dress. AS brooch,
belt buckle, stick pin, collar fastener,
or hat pin. this upright cross. with
each Of its four arms bent to right
angle at the end. meets everywhere
the eye.
Nearly every woman who buys one
knows that 1t is in some sense good
luck PIN" but how it came to be con-
sidered such and where the peculiar
and curiously attractive symbol orig
mated not so many know.
What is the swasuka?
1t Is one of the great religious SYM
bols OF the world. 1t has been recog-
nized as a religious emblem by more
people, very likely, than has the cross
itself. AS such symbol it Is very many
hundreds of years older than the
Christian era; in fact, it Is, perhaps,
the very earliest of religious signs or
characters. 1t has been revered all
over Europe and Asia, and long before
the dawn of Christianity our pagan
ancestors looked up to it. as the en-
blem OF what they worshiped 1t is
one OF the oldest things in history,
and there is scarcely a land in whose
ruined temples it Is not found.
"Su.astika." the name given 1t by
the Brahmins and Buddhists Of India.
is Sanscrit word signifying "of good
fortune" In the Pail tongue it is
'suti," which means 1T is WE'LL" or
so be it," which Is much the same
meaning as the Sanscrit word. The
Japanese call 1t 'manji' and the Chi
nese know 1t as 'ouan" or wan" The
French call it 'le croix pattee." the
footed cross. while the ancient Eng
lish name is "fylfot." meaning either
four-footed or many-footed.
The most puzZling and most inter-
esting thing about the swastika is that
1t is found in nearly all parts of the
world, in this country as well as in
Europe and Asia. wherever archaeolo-
gists digs up the buried cities of the
remote past. Drawn, painted. cut.
woven. scratched or otherwise design.
ed. not only upon burial urn and sac.
rificial stone, but also upon utensils
and objects OF everyday use, the Gu.
rious symbol appears.
1t has been found among relics that
mark the bronze age in Europe. and
