John T. McGraw has cracked the
party whip. flashing Judge Dent, of
Grafton, into submission to the ex-
tent that the Judge evidently under
duress makes a feeble statement ex-
onerating McGraw of the oft-repeat-
ed charge that McGraw knitted the
Judge in the recent Congressional
campaign in the Second district.
However, the card issued by the
Judge does not change the public
mind on the subject. There are
many who believe McGraw stood
loyal to the Judge, but there are just
as many who firmly believe McGraw
and the Judge got the knitting to-
gether. The people were the ones
who used the knife. From the re-
turns 1t is evident both were re-
pudiated in that district. 1t is rea-
sonable to believe that the eJudge
himself until very lately believed Nc
Graw knitted him as the report to
that effect is alleged to have come
from some of the Judges closest
friends and warmest admirers. Bur,
now the Judge tries to make 1t ap-
pear that Senator Elkins knitted him.
The thought is foolish that Senator
Elkins should have supported him.
1t really was not in the order of
things that he should do so, and the
Judge ought not to have counted on
his support, nor should he now feel
aggrieved over the fact that Senator
Elkins was true to his own party's
nominee. Sometimes we think the
Judge is puerile and our pity is
aroused. Perhaps, the Judge would
do well not to speak or write any
more about that memorable cam
paign, made all the more memorable
by the blunders that came from his

The deputy clerk of the United
States Circuit Court, Frank R.
Moore, made venomous attack on
the Telegram in federal court Mon
day afternoon, when members of the
bar protested against what they con-
sidered an extortionate charge for
printed copies of an opinion deliver
ed recently by Judge Nathan Con.
The printing of the copies cost him
less than twenty cents a piece and
he put in a charge of five dollars a
piece for them. 1t is little wonder
the attorneys objected to such extor-
ton. And in his effort to get his
charges allowed, he villifed and
threatened to sue the Telegram.
It may be well to state here this pa
per published the opinion advisedly
and with the consent of the highest
authority. The conduct of Moore In
this instance, IL not in others, ought
to result in his removal at once.
This paper does not demand that as
a.matter of any self-interest, but for
the public good. This paper pro-
poses to maintain its independence
and viii exercise It's right to publish
the news and to demand that public
officials either treat the public right
or resign. In this instance the Tele-
gram insists on Moore's resignation
or removal.

VIII Study Irrigation and Dry
Farming Methods In Umatilla
County.

So anxious is the government Of
Brazil to learn practical m ,thods of
reclamation and dry land farming,
that she has sent an attache of her
department of agriculture 500 miles
to Oregon to study the methods in
use in the arid section of this state.
Senior Enrique Arcole, an attache of
the agricultural department CT the
government of Brazil, was passen-
ger on No. l today, on his way to
Portland, where he goes on a trip
connected with the commercial rela-
tons of Brazil and the United States.
After visiting there for few days he
expects to return to Hermiston, Echo
and the Butter creek country to look
over the irrigated land and study
methods of irrigation.
Senior Arcole left Brazil last March
for the purpose of studying dry land
farming methods in the Pacific coast
states, and has been for two months
in Colorado, Wyoming and Utah, and
will now give some time to Oregon
The Brazilian government like the
United States, is striving to find
homes for thousands of immigrants
coming into the country and for her
overflow population from the cities.
In the central portion of Brazil are
millions of acres of high upland which
Is susceptible of dry farming and
which Brazil will seek to reclaim by
this method II possible. Her vast
ranges which have been the wonder
of the world for years are being in
vaded by settlers and Portuguese are
going for hundreds Of miles into the
interior in search of homes on the
small rivers and creek bottoms.

of his experiences in the United States.
He is an educated Brazilian, having

number of years and speaks English

ways a somewhat peculiar fellow,
though he was bright as a student and
held down chair in the college while
taking the course there. He had also
studied law in Germany and was taxi
ing course at Columbia for the pur-
pose of familiarizing himself with
the language and terms of this coun-

Leon Kidder, the youngest of the
Kidder boys burned last Tuesday in
an explosion of black powder at their
home on the Umatilla river west of
the city, is now at st. Anthony's hos
pital. where he is in a serious condi-
ton. Last evening all the skin was
removed from the upper portion of his
body and arms and the flesh expos
ed. 1t is impossible for him to lie
down and he sits in chair where he
sleeps but little. If complications do
not arise he will recover, but it will
require some time for the new skin
to grow upon his body. Edward the
elder brother, is at home and is not
seriously burned. He will start the
threshing machine next Monday, as
the brothers had intended before the
explosion occurred.
