HIS FAITH IN UMATILLA.

DR.. Henry Waldo Coe, who has be-
come identified with the development
o. Umatilla county through the pur-
chase Of a half interest in the Furnish
irrigation project, is backing his faith
in this county with his money.
He has purchased an SO-acre tract
under the Furnish project. paid full
price for it just as any other purchas-
er. and will set out the entire tract
in peach and pear trees.
This land was formerly sagebrush,
producing but little grass and no veg
citation except the sage. 1t is high,
dry and unimproved but lies under
the Furnish ditch and needs but little
leveling to make it ready for alfalfa
or other forage crops
It seems unbelievable to the old pl-
oneers to think that this high ridge
between Fosters and Hermiston
should produce crops and fruits, but
that is what it is doing. That very
sandy loan is now being sold in small
tracts and within few years will
smile with verdure and orchard bloom
from end to end.
Peach and pear orchards will
thrive beyond belief in that rich land
and will yield thousands of dollars
per acre after once at maturity. Ber-
ries will yield handsome income and
truck gardening will make fortunes
for those who have the nerve to en-
gage in that business.
The best inducement for settlers to
go upon that land, however, is the fact
that one of the proprietors, himself,
will plant an sO-acre peach and pear
orchard there and will show his faith
by spending his money.
There is no way in the world by
which anybody can make a mistake
by settling on any of the rich lands
now open for settlement in the west
end of Umatilla county The land,
water, soil, climate. transportation,
seasons-everything is in favor Of that
section.

UNCLE SANS KINDERGARTEN.

Cabrera, the unhappy president of
Guatemala, seems to be between two
fires says the Spokane Chronicle,
His conduct Of his country's affairs
at home has caused the formation of
a revolutionar' party, and recently
an attempt was made to assassinate
him.
His conduct Of his country's for
elgn relations is said to have reused
the ire Of Mexico And now, Of
course, finding himself between the
devil and the deep sea, he has set
up a wall, and asked Uncle Sam to
help him out.
In the politics Of the two Americas
the United States is called upon to
perform services much like those Of
a nurse or kindergarten teacher. II
oHe of the little republics has "a pain
in its little insides" Uncle Sam Is
asked 10 administer the remedy, and
IL two Of them get to pulling hair he
has, perforce to intercede and ar
range a peace.
Unfortunately he has not the priv
ilege Of administering a spanking
where one would be Of benefit.

No More "Soul Kisses"

A "soul kiss" of more than one
second in duration will not be tolerat-
ed in Prospect park, Brooklyn, this
summer, says a New York dispatch.
Police Inspector O'Reilly has given
imperative instructions.
Love making in its proper place
and done according to the strict code
prescribed by Cupid is all right" he
says, "but l object to hugging and
kissing when it is carried to excess" +"
Captain Lawrence Murphy says he
is worried over the delicate position
in which his men vii be led. The po-
lice are instructed to be gentlemanly
on all occasions and not to be harsh
with lovers. They are instructed to
walk very heavy when they belive it
time for soul kiss to stop and may
whistle, cough or slap their hands as
if attempting to scare a squirrel.

SHORT ON JUDGMENT.

A Pittsburg judge recently threat
ened to prosecute the publisher of a
paper because the headlines, Blanks
Lies Read to the Jurors appeared in
his paper while a trial was going on
In which Blank was witness, al
though the evidence offered showed
pretty plainly that Blank was liar.
The judge held that it might influence
the jury. Bosh! A jury that can be
influenced to form an opinion con-
trary to the evidence in a case simply
because of a headline in a paper, is
not sufficiently intelligent to serve,
and a judge who does not realize that
hasn't any judgment to spare.-Buck-
eye Informer.

The $4,000 acres of land now being
brought under irrigation in the west
end of Umatilla county are now worth
$4,000, 600 in their present state. In
five years from now they will be
worth five times that sum or $685.
100000. Are you going to share in
that great increase? Are you going
to enjoy a portion of that additional
wealth?

paper trust Is shown by the letters
submitted to the congressional COM
mittee now investigating the prices of
paper. Out OF 200 papers giving evil
dence in the matter 1t is shown that
nearly every one has experienced an
advance of from 60 to so per cent in
the price OF newspaper since the first
o. the present year. These advances
have been made with no other object
than to eXtort unjust tribute from the
newspapers. The price of wood pulp
or any other paper making material
has not advanced, 1t is simply a bare
faced robbery on part of the trust.

WOMEN AND DEPRAvITY.

Somehow there is always a revolt
ing suggestion in the depravity OF a
woman. People expect men to be de-
praved, it seems and the sting Of their
debasement is dulled by the expecta-
ton.
But somehow, whether 1t be
through the mother-love Of the races.

FavrOt Speaks Here.

Congressman George K. Fav
rot spoke at the courthouse We'd
nesday night in the interest of
his candidacy for the Democratic
nomination to congress.
About a hundred voters and
several ladies were present. The
meeting Was presided over by
DR.. A. F. Barrow who stated,
when he introduced the speaker,
that he did so in his official ca
pacity as mayor of the town.
Mr.. Favrot, in the opening of
his address, paid a tribute to
Louisiana womanhood. He then
endeavOred to excuse his vote in
the constitutional convention on
the section relating to negro suf-
frage, and argued against max
ing frequent changes in our rep
resentation in congress. He
closed his address by making {
vigorous attack on Republican
ism.
Those on the platform with the
speaker we're: Messrs. Matt Gil
more, James Logan, Clint ant
George Simmons, and Robert H
Barrow. The speaking LASTED
for about thirty minutes.

The Election on Tuesday.

The agony will soon be over.
On Tuesday, the voters OF this
parish will Indicate their choice
for district Judge, railroad com
missioner and congressman.
There being no school contest,
the interest is conferred on these
three Offices.
For the first named position,
Judge Charles Kilbourne and
Hon. George j. Woodside OF
East Feliciana are the candi-
dates. Both are good, able men,
and true to our policy of not talk
inc sides in contest between
home men, we must leave them
to the dicta of their fellow citi-
zens expressed at the ballot box
For the second mentioned Of
fee, that of railroad commission
err. we can be less reserved as a
home man, Oliver P. Bland OF
Wilson and the only candidate
from this section is pitted
AGAINST three trans Mississippi
candidates. We urge support OF
the home man. If the Sixth
| Congressional District does its
duty by him he will be in the
second primary.
Again, for congressman, we
can be as open as the free all
that West Felicianians breathe
Three candidates there are
Hon. Victor LefebVre OF West
Baton Rouge, Hon. r. G. Wick
life, and the present incumbent
George K. Favrot of Bato1
Rouge.
1t is a pleasure to point out tn
home man-Our BOb-and to i'm
pIore our voters to stand by hin
to man. Because he is tn
home man and because he i
worthy of the support of all HON
electors, stand by him. He ma
