CHEROKEE STRIP LAND.

Frank Ruch, the keeper of the buf-
falo herd in the national forest OF
Oklahoma, was talking in his office
the other day to st. Louis man,
about some poor fodder he had re-
fused.
Poor stuff it was" said the ex-
cowboy. at must have grown on
poor land. The land must have been
as poor-as poor as"
He laughed.
"Once," he said, "a Kansas farmer
met on the hot, dusty road a home-
steader pushing on excltedly toward
the Cherokee strip.
"'Whar ye bound?' said the farm
er.
"'Fer a 100 acres o. free land in
the strip was the reply And the
man vanished in the glitter of dust
and sunshine.
"Well, a month or two went by, and
on the same dusty road the Kansas
farmer met the homesteader return
ing.
Hello he says, what ye done
with them 16O acres?
"The homesteader pointed his whip
proudly toward his mule team
See them mules?' said he. We'll,
I traded so acres OF my claim for

ply but the feller was a tenderfoot,

WILL THEY COME BACK?

A number of farmers from Helix,
Athena and other sections of Umatilla
have moved their families to Walla
Walla within the past three or four
years for the alleged reason that
Walla Walla was a better town NOR
ally, than Pendleton.
While making their immense for
tunes from the abounding opportu-
mites of Umatilla county yet they
moved out of the county to spend their
fortunes and rear their families.
Now, what reason have they for re-
naming out of Umatilla county or
Pendleton? The moral conditions
here are what they want; prohibition
has been voted; the reform which they
wanted has been brought to the coun-
ty, and what excuse can they now
offer for staying away from Pendle-
ton? The East Oregonian urges
them to come back home.
In the first place, Walla Walla NOR
ais have never been better than those
OF Pendleton. Both. have been wet"
towns and Walla Walla has tolerated
a worse class of saloons and more
open gambling than Pendleton and yet
these farmers have deceived them
selves into believing that Walla Walla
was a better town morally, than PEN
dleton.
Now they are undeceived. Pendle-
ton will be dry" after July l and
Walla Walla will continue to flaunt
her. dives. If these farmers were hon.
est in seeking a place where moral
conditions were good, in which to rear
ard educate their children, they can
not remain at Walla Walla.
Will they now show their apprecia-
ton of Umatilla county's progress and
return to this county where moral
are good to make their
permanent home?
Will they give their home county
square deal? Let us see. They have
made fortunes here and now have
what they have sought. Will they
return to a county having good NOR
ais? Or will they remain in the
presence of Walla Walla saloons with
heir boys and girls?

CAPTIVE GETS ALLOTMENT.

Herman Lehman, a captive Of the
Apaches when a lad of II years and
cruelty treated by them, has at last
come into possession Of an Indian al
lotment through the efforts of Sena-
tor Gore, after three unsuccessful at
tempts had been made to get possess
sion of his property. With this COM
pleted Lehman has been restored to
his tribal rights, says a Lawton, Ok
lahoma, story. Though a German, he
is IA member of the Comanche tribe
of Indians. He is generally known by
the Indians as Chief Quanah's boy and
is called Montechema by the Indians
His career has been romance of bor-
der life.
When IL years old he lived with
his mother in Texas. A raid of the
Apaches under Geronimo, in which
houses were destroyed and pillage TAX
en- and a number of settlers killed,
young Lehman and his brother were
taken captive. The brother escaped
by mere strategy, while Herman was
tea 10 a pony anu cal IISu away
With the surrender at Fort Sill Of
Quanah Parker and his band to Cen
eral Mckenzie, Lehman was among
the number. An investigation follow
ed resulting in the return Of the cap
tive to his mother in Texas. A few
years Of life away from the Indians,
to whom he had become attached,
soon led him to return to southwest
Oklahoma.
The Comanche Indians in tribal
council and the efforts Of Chief Qua
nah have been directed toward OBJ
tanning recognition for him on the
tribal rolls by the government, which
have always failed until now. At the
council he was made a member Of
the tribe.
Lehman now lives with his wife and
children on a leased piece Of land near
Indiahoma.

THE LOW GREEN DOOR.

The years roll on, and still we rev.
rent tread,
We seek the place where rest the
honored dead;
Again we strew fresh flowers upon
each grave,
And place a flag where sleeps sol
der brave.
Step softly by each low green door,
1t. opens earthward never more.
Again we sing the songs they sang of
old,
And glad recount their deeds of valor
bold
While memory brings back through
mist of tears,
The sights and sounds of those far dis
tant years.
Step softly by each low green door,
1t opens earthward never more,
We name the battles DER they fought
so we'll
Antietam. Gettysburg and shiloh's
hell;
And as we thus recall the mighty past
Our hearts on fire anew beat loud
and fast.
Step softly by each low green door,
1t opens earthward never more.
Again we hear the bugle, drum and
fife,
And live once more the stirring mar
tial life;
In fancy see the gleam of campfire
bright,
And wellloved faces in its glowing
light.
Step softly by each low green door,
1t opens earthward never more,
Gone gone, all gone, the merry, sad
and gay;
Their blood was spilled in many a
hard-fought fray;
The loving myrtle wreaths their low
ly beds,
And peace doth brood above their
dust-eovered heads.
Step softly by each low green door,
1t opens heavenward evermore.

MORE PROGRESS FOR OREGON,

The people of oregon have just
passed three more of what the poll
ticians call freak measures" meas
ures giving the people more power in
state government, namely the recall,
the proportional representation and
statement No. enacted into law.
The recall was passed by major
ity Of 1918, showing that the peo-
pie know what they want. The pro-
portional representation bill was pass
ed by a majority Of 65O6 and state
ment No. was enacted into law by
the overwhelming majority Of 1851.
II addition to these the Huntley bill,
or the corrupt practices bill, was also
passed by a majority Of 14,854
Thus four freak measures are
ADDED to the already long list in Ore
gon and the people are gaining more
and more power and authority in state
government by these measures.
VIII the legislature dare to mon
key" with these measures? The peo-
pie have never been repulsed by the
legislature yet. What will be done
with these alleged freak" bills? The
people Of Oregon are making pro-
gress. And It is safe to say that the
legislature will keep It's hands off,
