Jim Braswel1 Wins $500.

Jim Rraswell, who is som swhat of an inventive genius as we'll as a musician and author, has a just claim of $500 against a patent right man, who visited Green Forest last week,
 In making an exhibition of a unique patent churning device, the county right for which, by the way, is now owned by Charlie Wells, the smooth agent said that he would pay Sa09 to any man who would suggest an improvement on the machine.
 While the show was in progress Jim was an interested spectator and he caught an idea, as the gentleman manipulated the lever that whirled the churn- dash and at the same time flirted a goose feather to ''mind the flies" and propelled a palm leaf fan that is destined to eQol the bEow ef the operator. Jim decided that the lever which is used by hand could be attached to a rocking chair and the machine could derive it's power from the back ward and forward movement of the chair as the person churning took his ease at rocking. He also decided that the same to and fro movement could be utilized to rpeis a baby cradle, and thus a large portion of the duties oe the household could be carried on at thu sane time without in- terfering with the rest that is so desirable. Jim made the sug- gestion and it Was the unanimous decision of those present that he is justly entitled to the five hundred dollars, if not more money.
 Mr. Wells has begun the manufacture of the machine, which he believes will be in great demand, but will not add the Braswell attachment at present for fear of having to pay the re- ward.

Uncle Gal Fry was up from his farm near Carrollton on "business'' Saturday. While in the city he exhibited to us a souvenir which he values very highly in the shape of gutta pepeha finger ring set with silver which was made by a comrade of his while they were in prison at Ft. Deleware, Md, during the war, they having been captured from the ranks of the Fifth Ten- neessee calvary of the Con- federate army. The ring has been kept only as a keep sake and is as good as new.
 Work on the Brawley mountain road under the direction of J. E. Norris was progressing nicely up to the time the rains came. MT. Norris says he has the foundation laid for a good road and will be with it to finish. The people of Green Forest who subscribed to the fund are meeting the pay. ments promptly. Very little help has been secured from people across the mountain, fact that is both regretable and surprising. The people of the Osage valley will reap the greatest direct ben eft that the road will bring and the commercial club was justifi- able in the expectation of sub- stantial help, but very few are in. clined to do anything.

 Eld. J. W. Fairehild, the "Hardshell" Baptist preacher and editor, filled his appointment here Sunday morning and by request preached again in the afternoon. Eld. Fairchild is a fine scholar, alogioal reasoner and the strongest exponent of the Primative Baptist faith who has ever preached in this country, There is a great difference be- tween the faith of the church Eld. Fairchild represents and what it's members are commonly reputed to believe. In his two sermons Sunday for the most part it would have taken the splitting of hairs to discern the difference in the doctrine he pre- sented and that of the Missionary Baptist church, In the forenoon he discussed the subject of pre- destination and in the afternoon the commission. To say the least of it, Eld. Fairehild is : very interesting talker.

 Edward Burton Mattox, the popular money order clerk of the Eureka Springs post office, spent two or three days in Green Forest the past week, finishing out his annual vacation. E. B.. is jolly, good fellow and his friends here are glad that politi- cal fortune has put him in possession of a good poeition.
 The enforcement of the stock is matter of discussion lately. It looks like the town park is doomed to destruction. The wire fence around it has become so dilapidated that it no longer re- sists the festive town hog for which number of our citiz ems seem to have such intense ad- miration. It is bad enough taste to raise hogs in pens in town, but when they are turned out on the commons to root out living, the action becomes intolerable if there were any single-handed way for one ts help himself. John Buell., whose civic improve ment taste is the source of admi- ration of every citizen and visitor, took a half day off one of the bright days last week to clean up the street in ffont ef his place carefully planting Burmuda grass along the curb-stone of his walk. He went home Monday at noon to fine all bis effort de- stroyed, the whole street being rooted into loblol1y by nasty swine. The injury to Johns feelings was more than twice the value of the hog, to say nothing of the spectacle of street dug to pieces and the rneaey aaMase created. This is just an in- stance. Let US shut up the hogs, or pass an ordinance allowing every man to protect his property by Ehe shsrtsst and most effsetivs means.

 The Green Forest Cam cry has secured about all the tomoto crop contracts wanted. In a talk with Mr, Reeves Tuesday, he stated that he is looking for to- matoes to be the long suit this year. Apples will not be in de- mand at all for canning purposes, owing to the large yield, while the Elberta peach crop will be too short to be figured upon. Ever character of berries will be in demand, and a good market will likely be had for pumpkins and sweet potatoes, if the people will raise enough to justify the can- nery to take care of the crop.

FRATERNITY.

II you look at the warp and woof
Of human life you will find a golden
thread-one that is closely interviewer
with all the rest and because Of it the
others are frightened.
II is fraternity, the principle that a
man does not stand alone in the world
but is one Of brotherhood. This
idea forms the foundations Of all the
great fraternal orders. These orders
are now flourishing as they have never
flourished before.
Yesterday the Pendleton Elks held
their annual memorial service. A few
hours before their service was held at
the Church Of the Redeemer the local
Masons buried one Of their departed
brothers. A few days ago the Knights
Templar sojourned for day with
others Of that honored circle at Wal
la Walla. This evening the local
knights Of Pythias will entertain their
grand chancellor. A few weeks ago

KEEP 1T AWAKE.

Now that there is a good chance for
the success of the woolen mill move
ment. don't let it go to sleep again.
A few weeks ago matters were in
such shape that it seemed certain a
company would be formed and the
plant taken over, But the election in
tervened and in the excitement the
mill was forgotten for the time. It
required some work to revive interest.
Now that the movement is wide awake
again, let US keep it so.
So much has already been said
concerning the benefits to be derived
from the retention of the mill that
further argument would be almost
useless. No one denies the advantage
Of keeping the mill and building it
up Nor is there any question as to the
feasibility of the enterprise.
1t is merely question of securing
the capital with which to finance the
project 1t is money that is now
needed At this time three-fifths of
the amount has already been pledged.
1t shouldn't be hard to secure the
remainder.
As has been said before, there are
several millions Of dollars. in the PEN
dleton banks. There are many men
here who are able to finance the wool
en- mill company single handed if they
but wished to do so.
But if new men refuse to come into
the company that fact should not be
allowed to kill the proposition. 1t is
to be hoped that other men will join
in the movement. There are a half
dozen men or more in the city who
should be in the company
But If these men refuse to join in
the movement there is another re-
course. It is a very simple one. Let
those who are now interested in
crease the amount of their invest
ments. Two men have already agreed
to do this If others viii do the same
the mill will be secured.
What the East Oregonian wants, is
to see the mill retained. This is
what everybody wants. By whom the
plant will be owned and by whom op-
Grated does not matter greatly. so
long as the management is competent.
The main thing is to get the mill to
running again and running under such
conditions that continuous operation
will be insured.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1908-12-07

the grand master of the odd Fellows
made a fraternal visit to the Pendletor
lodges OF that order.
This is a cross sectional view of fra
ternal life as it obtains in this city
1t will be seen that the fraternties
have to do with pleasure and with
sorrow. with life and with death,
Though there are many orders their
primary objects are the same-the
benefit of the human family. They
seek 10 promote manly sociability, to
aid the living and to honor the dead.
With many men nowadays religion
is a dead issue. At least 1t does not
appeal to them strongly when called
by that name, They are not interest
ed in the various creeds through
which the viii of God is supposed to
be made known unto man.
But these men are reached by the
teachings of the fraternal orders, They
believe in mankind and in manliness.
They like to live by the side of the
road and aid the passing throng.
Like Abou Ben Adam, they may not
be enrolled with those who love the
Lord, but they like their fellow men,
And it is said that Abou's name was
placed at the head of the list.
