JUSTICE TO THE RAILROADS.

The state railroad commission is
now honestly trying to ascertain the
extent and seriousness of the car
shortage in Oregon, and it is the duty
of shippers who may have suffered or
who are now suffering from this diff
ficulty, to notify the commission as to
the number of cars desired, when Or
dered, Qf ordered) how many will be
wanted during the ensuing four or
five months, and all details of the
shortage in the knowledge of each
shipper.
There is a lot of talk about a car
shortage and much of it Is unjust to
the railroads and causes unnecessary
alarm. Now the commission wants to
know the facts, and in justice to them
selves and also in justice to the rail-
roads, the shippers of oregon should
hurry up their detailed complaints.
Let us see just how many cars are
needed at this time in Oregon. 1t will
be an extremely interesting bit OF
news.

THE EMPRESS ABUSE.

With scarcely no investment in
Umatilla county, with only the scanti-
est office furniture and fixtures, the
Pacific Express company is known to
make greater profits on its outlay in
this county than any other line of in
dustry here. And yet with all the
privileges which it enjoys from the
people of oregon, it gives but medi-
ocre service in return, and at times
its services is positively inadequate
and unsatisfactory.
If there ever was good need for
government ownership, it is in the
case of this express company. 1t
could be operated by the government
in connection with the mail service
and rates on express matter could be
reduced under government ownership
from 200 to 500 per cent and still leave
the government a margin above run
ming expenses, while paying employees
living and respectable salaries.
In city of the size of Pendleton,
where as much local and outside bus
iness is transacted as here, this COM
pany should have adequate offices up
town, not out on the outskirts, with
adequate force to deliver promptly
everything entrusted to its care, with
sufficient equipment to handle the
uaffic which an indulgent public
furnishes it.
Its profits from Pendleton are suf-
ficient to give the city the best possi-
BILE service and present conditions are
entirely unsatisfactory. The people
will not tolerate such service where
the pay for the service is so excessive.

NEGRO CHIEF is LITERARY.

The richest and most intelligent
native chief in the western part of
German East Africa is becoming well
known in Germany because of his
excellent qualities and his great help
fulness, as the friend and ally, as
we'll as subject, Of the ruling white
power.
Every public act and many of the
private enterprises of the Sultan Mat
ahangarua are deemed worthy OF
record in the German newspapers,
because he has much power and uses
1t wisely and for the good OF his peo-
pie and the Germans, as well as for
the advancement of his own interests,
says the New York Sun.
Matahangarua is lord over a beau
tiful and healthful region to the west
Of Victoria Nyanza, In the Bukoba
province of the colony. His country
in the Kisba district, a land of plain
and mountain from 1000 to 5000 feet
above the sea. More than $4,000
people own him as their native ruler.
The Germans give him entire
charge OF the collection of the hut
tax on the 10000 habitations of his
subjects and pay him commission
for the work. This is one of the few
districts in the colony where tho
white rulers have no difficulty in
collecting the full tax imposed upon
the natives.

SURPRISES AT THE FAIR.

The second annual district fair
holds several surprises for the people
of the district. And it is not neces-
sary to have a microscope with which
to discover them, either.
The first and most pleasant surprise,
perhaps, is the enormous display of
excellent farm and orchard products
from the Pilot Rock district. Hereto
fore it has been the custom to expect
such displays from Milton, Freewater
and Echo-the ancient garden spots
of the county, but from Pilot Rock ?
Why, could "any good come out of
Nazareth"
Pilot Rock has been looked upon
as the range district, the semi-arid
belt, where sheep thrive, where al
falfa can be raised on the creek bot
toms and where barley is indigenous
to the foothills, but Pilot Rock pro-
duces 35 varieties of fruit and garden
products? Folly!
But an inspection of the Pilot Rock
booth where about 35 varieties OF
farm, orchard and garden products
are displayed at good advantage, will
dispel any lingering doubts about the
actual productiveness of the Pilot
Rock district.
This special mention is due t. the
people of Pilot Rock for their untir-
ing energy in collecting such ar ex-
celle mt exhibit. Other portions of the
county have repeatedly received a
deserved need of praise for their ef-
forts along this line.
Another surprise of the fair is the
cluster of grapes from the Milton
Free water district. over the arth-
way of the n-Freewater booth
hangs a cluster of grapes from one
branch, weighing about rs pounds,
taken from a 2-year-old vine growing
ir. a former gravel bed of the Milton
Freewater district. 1t is worth while
to hunt it up.
Still another surprise Of the fair
worthy of special mention, is the eS-
cellent art exhibit. The collection Of
reedlework. china and OF painting
and other kinds of art, is really Won
derful to say nothing of the ever
fascinating collection of Indian curios.
This department. should be view
ed carefully by those who have had a
lingering suspicion that eastern ORE
gon is only a land of sagebrush,
bunch grassland wheat The other
side of life. the aesthetic, has also
received much attention here, judg-
ing from its display Of trophies.

EVERYBODY SHOULD REGISTER

There remains less than a week In
which voters may register for the city
election to be held in December. and
less than one-fourth of the legal
voters of the city have SO far register
ed to vote.
While there may be no urgent issue
to come up at the city election, yet
through the pride of citizenship, the
voters of Pendleton should register.
" here the substantial citizenship OF
the city refuses to take part in mu-
nicipal affairs, it encourages the tran
sient classes. those interested in sell
fish and often illegitimate ends, to
become extremely active.
There are about 1900 voters in the
limits of Pendleton, and no matter
whether there is any important issue
up or not, this full vote should be reg
istered and cast. This Is the only
means Of keeping the ballot pure and
good men in office.
A large percentage of the voters
now registered are practically un-
known in the city. They are perhaps
to be found here, or have been here
long enough to register at least, but
very small proportion Of them are
permanent residents or have any in
terests in the city.
With all the various interests of the

This is a good time to learn what
umatilla county is good for. If Pen
dleton business men who have never
visited the remote corners of the
county, personally, will spend an hour
at the district fair each afternoon in
specting the different agricultural and
horticultural exhibits and asking ques-
tons about the different sections OF
the county, they will acquire a good
working education Of the county
which it would be impossible to ac-
uuire in a years travel by team.

PRESIDENT AS a STOKER.

1t is an open secret that when
President Roosevelt went down to the
Isthmus of Panama to make an in
spection Of our canal work he took
the keenest interest in every detail of
the handling and navigation Of the
war vessel on which he rode. He
made that journey on one of our
modern cruisers, and had two more
of them steaming alongside as con-
voys.
1t is also an open secret that the
president visited the engine room
and, not content with quietly observ-
ing the stokers feed the fires, banter
ingly dared a member of his party
to enter into a stoking contest For
sufficient moments to throw both the
president Of the United States and his
competitor into a plebian perspira- :

city always at stake in an election, the
property owning class, the people who
pay the taxes and bear the burdens,
should at least have sufficient pride
in their own affairs to register and
vote and show their citizens interest
in the welfare of the city.
1t is by the refusal of this substan.
tlal class of citizens to vote that cor
ruption and incompetency and ras-
cality creep into office. Every citizen
should register and vote, even though
it be but to hold the preponderance
of the voting strength on the side of
safety.

measures have ben adopted by the

avert a fuel famine In the west ana

impending next winter Howard Ell
lott. president Of the Northern Pa
cific recently wrote to Commissioner
Lane of the Interstate commission
suggesting the probability OF a fuel
famine in the west and northwest

serious possibilities. the famine OF
last winter. He advised that every
effort be made by the commission to
induce consumers. including the gov
ernment, to lay in supplies of coal
during the summer months. pending
the movement of the crops in the ear

the matter up with Secretary Gar

is Exciting One--The Resolutions
Both Condemn and Praise Pres.
Roosevelt's Policy.

/ mount holder and landlord of the

sources connected herewith
The convention has been notable
in that its discussions have been al.
most entirely confined to criticism
of the national administration pol.
icy of handling public lands.
The committee on resolutions at
noon today announced that 1t had
agreed upon a set of resolutions
which will be presented to the con
vention some time this afternoon.
These resolutions in a general way
endorse the public land policy of
President Roosevelt but at the same
time severely criticize a number of
his methods and plans.
The resolutions denounce the leas-
ing or permit plan, advocate the open
range as it exists today, opposes the
landlord system endorsesd by the
president, declare that all lands with
the reserves suitable to homesteads
should be so arranged that they could
be filed upon for such without un-
necessary delay. The resolutions be-
lieve that the right of way laws
should be literally interpreted so as
not to work hardships. Many other
phases of the public lands question
are dealt with by these resolutions.
1t is expencted that there will be
fierce contest waged over the reso-
lutions and the convention may be in
session far into the night before they
are finally passed upon.
There is no question but what the
anti-Roosevelt policy men are in con-
troll.
The great strength of the western
men was demonstrated this morn
ing on vote as to whether the

organizations should be stated. the
