tion to mining interests after his re-
turn from San Francisco.
THE marriage of Miss Goodrich To
Macmillan has been postponed" said
Weldon. AS for myself and Mrs.

which the disputed ground lies. He
had visited IL last fall and while in
the Fannie ellis climbed down the
shaft. He testified that It was little
more than breast high.
w. b. Colwell introduced in evil
dence map of the claims which he
had drawn and testified as TO its cor
rectness. A very important admis-
sion was secured by the plaintiff when
on cross examination Colwell stated
that the location shaft was not sunk
on the Pharoh but on the ground of
the jefferson Morfoot No. ! which
is the property of Mr.. Mezger and
associates The testimony of ]. W.
Nyce. which followed that of Col
well. WAS practically in substantial
tion OF what he had sworn to.
James Burns stated that he had
climbed in and out of the location
shaft of the Fannie ellis. which he
described as being breast high In
depth.
+. W. Hulse was called He stat
ed that Arthur Whiteley had told
him he had a very hard time locating
the Fannie ellis on account of the
snow on the ground and that he had
also had a hard time doing the work.
On cross examination plaintiff asked: +:
Isn't 1t fact that you We're re-
quested or employed by either Mr..
Mcdonald or Mr.. Reeves for the pur-
pose of getting into conversation
with Mr. Whiteley in. regard to the
Fannie ellis claim
Reeves, jumping 10 his feet, en-
tered objection to the question. He
WAS overruled by the court and took
exception Hnlse answered after
some hesitation. Yes. saying that
Mcdonald had requested him to have
talk with Whiteley about it.
At this point the defendant rested.
In rehuttal 10 the testimony of
Hulse. Whiteley was again called TO
the stand He denied having told
Hulse that he had hard time in
doing the work on the property, as
he had hired some enc else to do IL
for him. During taking of his testi-
mony the witness and Reeves for the
defendant had quite a spirited tilt,
which was put To an end by the court.
Coleman moved that the court
give peremptory instructions to the
jury TO bring in "A verdict for the de-
fendant for all lands of the Pharoh
and Arctic which conflict with the
Fannie ellis Judge Pike caused
considerable surprise by his reply.
lie did not rule on the motion but
stated instead that In his opinion the
case was one which should have been
tried before the court and not jury.
lie would therefore submit only to
the Jury a list of seven questions
touching points of fact and not of
law. These they were to answer as
they saw fit He will take with him
to his home at Reno not alone the
answers of the jury but the exhibits
as well. He will then decide the tan
gled legal points in the action, rem
dering his decision later. In this
manner the latter was practically
taken out of the hands of the jury.
The questions which were relative to
testimony which had been offered
during the trial were then given to
the ten men chosen to try the case
and they were locked up in the court
room for deliberation.
The first case which will come up
| for hearing before the court today
| will be that of Minnoletti VS.. Cupid,
which is TO begin at 10 o'clock.

THE STORY Of ALASKA IS TOLD AGAIN

( Either theory may hold, but in the
opinion Of many statesmen of the day
at least, the latter is the more logical
In the course of the treaty debate,
General Benjamin F. Butler of Massa-
chusetts, thundered mis- disapproval
In the following words: "If we are
to pay for her (Russia's) friendship
this amount, desire to give her the
S72OO.O00 and let her keep Alaska. l
have no doubt that at any time with
/ in the last 20 years we could have
had Alaska for the asking have
heard it so stated in the cabinets or
/ two presidents-provided we would
! take it as a gift. But no man, except
one insane enough to buy the earth
quakes of st. Thomas or the ice fields
of Greenland, could be forced to agree
to any other terms ior its acquisition
to the country"
Congressman Washburn of Wiscon-
sin, who sided with Butler in oppos-
ing the purchase, quoted the Sacra-
mento Union, which had said editori-
ally concerning the proposed treaty:
persons we'll informed about Alaska
are ungrateful enough to hint that
we could have bought much superior
elephant with not one-thousandth part
of the expense incurred in keeping
the animal in proper condition"
The treaty ceding Alaska to the
United States was signed March 80,
1867; was ratified by the senate on
May 2S, and on June. 20 publicly pro-
i claimed by the president On Octo-
Der is of the same year the United
States took military possession of her
new domain. The house held up the
appropriation for payment of the pur-
chase price, s7,2OO,OOO, however, for
nearly a year, so that payment was
not made until July IA, 1858.
There Is a story that a few days
! before William H. Stewards death he
was asked what he considered the
most momentous measure in his busy
: official career. 1.-THE purchase of
= Alaska" said the grand old states
man; but it will take the people a
generation to find it OUT
The secretary was right, both In
his conclusion that the purchase 'oi
1 Alaska was his greatest official ACT
and in his prophesy that it would
take a generation for the people to
find it out. In fact, the people are
only now beginning to find it out
The wonder of the bargain that Uncle
Sam got will continue to grow for
many generations.
Alaska cost about two cents an
acre. She has produced at least
500, 900, 900 worth or gold; the out

SMALLPOX NOT FATAL.
No Longer a Dread Disease-i99 Out
of 500 Recover.

No longer is smallpox to be dreaded
as a fatal disease, but is to be re-
garded as one in which 499 out of
every 500 victims will recover Such
is the information gathered by the
marine hospital and public health
service.
During the past six monthe, 2S,544
cases of this disease were reported
to the service. Out of this large num-
Der only 55 died.
Minnesota is credited with being
the banner smallpox state, having s.
203 cases reported. In all that num-
Der there were only six deaths. Tex
as has something of a record along
the same line, 30S9 cases being re-
ported from there and only one death.
The third state is Kansas, with 1882
cases and three deaths.
New York had 631 cases and no
deaths while Pennsylvania reports
only II cases and none fatal. Illinois
came in with 1879 cases, none fatal;
and Ohio with 533 cases and three
deaths

Willis Brindley in the Commercial
Review Of Portland writes the fol-
lowing entertaining story of the pur-
chase and of the present wealth of
Alaska:
The announcement that in 1909 an
exposition of international scope will
be held at Seattle, Washington, pri-
marily TO exploit the resources OF
Alaska, has brought the northland in
to surprising prominence in the Uni
ted States. For, while Americans
should be interested in the district
to the north, which comprises a ter
ritory one-sixth as large as the Uni
ted States of America, the fact re-
mains that until now they have look
ed upon the country rather as a treas
ure-house, to be pillaged of its wealth,
than a virgin soil fit and waiting for
tremendous development.
The Alaska -Yukon-P Pacific exposi-
ton has several objects: to correct
the popular impression that Alaska
is a land of ice and snow, to demon
strate that the Yukon territory has
other wealth than gold, to bring to-
gether the shores of the Pacific in
trade, and to tell the people of Am
erica by concrete illustration how
wonderfully rich is the Pacific north
west.
The people of the United States in
1867 gave Alaska about as cordial a
welcome as a mother robin accords a
cow-bird's egg which has been plant
ed in her nest against her will. The
metaphor cannot be carried further
for while the cow-bird hatched from
the egg in the robins nest is ever ar
evaporation, Alaska speedily proved
her right to a place in the nest and
has since paid for herself many times
over.
What the people thought a cow
bird appears to have been a goose o.
the kind we read about in childhood
which laid every day a golden egg
In the story, you recall, the greed!
owner slew the bird to get all hel
eggs at once. So the figure of speecf
fails again; for the Alaska goose still
lays her golden eggN
There are two theories to accoun
for the purchase Of Alaska, ther
known as Russian America, from
Russia. One is that William H. Sc
ward, then secretary of state, appre
ciated what a bargain was offered fol
$7,20O,O00 and the other is that the
purchase was made for the sake o.
relieving Russia, which had beer
friendly to the United States in the
civil war which was but recently
closed, Of a very troublesome burden
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1908-07-04

nut in 1906 was s15,SiO,OOO. The re-
ceipts from Alaska revenues have
been $1O,S33, 33,434-50 per cent more
than the cost of the territory. The
total value of all furs produced in
Alaska from 1870 to 1906 was $780,
S46,9S4, while fish productions be-
tween the years 1878 and 1906 was
500, 100000 Besides there are mil
lions of acres of land available for
farming and millions more covered
with the finest timber. And all of
this Uncle sam bought for S7.2OO,OOO.
The money would not pay for two
modern battleships.

FOURTH OF JULY WARNING.
Physicians Call Attention TO Number
of Celebration Accidents.

Washington, July 3.-After stating
that there have been 7S6 cases Of te-
tanus i'm this country during the last
five years, as the result of the an
nual Fourth of July celebratin, OF
which 721 have died, Surgeon Cen
eral Wyman of the marine hospital
corps, makes public the following
general warning in regard to the
treatment of such cases:
physicians often treat blank
cartridge and other Fourth of July
injuries. unless of a serious character,
as trivial" says the warning, "con-
tenting themselves with picking out
the plainly seen pieces of wad, pow
der, etc, and applying a dressing. In
few days, the patient returns with
symptoms of tetanus, and then, when
It is too late, antitoxin is given, the
wound is thoroughly cleaned out. and
perhaps a piece of wad or clothing
found in 1t.
ut should be an invariable proce-
dure that all Fourth of July wounds
be laid fully open under local or,
preferably. general anaesthsisa and all
foreign material and necrotic tissue
removed. After the wound has
been thoroughly cleaned out II
should be swabbed out with strong
carbolic acid, at least 20 per cent,
followed by a washing with 95 per
cent alcohol, to prevent further ac-
ton of the acid. Some surgeons use
peroxide of hydogen instead of car
bolic acid
after cauterization, by whatever
methods used, the wound should be
thoroughly washed out with $1,000
or 10000 solution of bichloride OF
mercury and packed with gauze soak
ed in a saturated solution of salicylic
or boric acid and a large wet dress
ing of the same solution applied. In
no case should the wound be closed
| but it should be allowed to heal by
granulation. The dressing and pack
| ing should be renewed every day"
