The extensive improvements on the
Catholic church property this sum-
mer is indeed pleasing to the congre.
cation as we'll as our citizens generally,
and to those who have devoted their
time and money to this work much credit
is due. In the early part of the summer
the exterior of the building received a
thorough overhaul,ng, with new single
roof and paint, and Messrs. Liebinger
and Roy have just completed painting
the interior in an artistic manner, after
much Of the wood WORK had been re-
modelled. Rev. Father Forbes has de-
voted much of his time to seeing that
details were looked after, and he feels
proud of the change and the liberal
support the congregation has rendered.
1t is true that it is not all paid for yet
but with little effort this fall the extra
expense can easily be liquidated.

Salem-In an opinion handed
down last week Attorney General A.
M. Crawford holds that all books,
papers and documents used In the
transaction OF the business OF the
State Board Of Agriculture are pub
lie documents and open to the inspsc-
tion of any citizen.
The Attorney-General also holds
that the State Board has no authority
under the law to issue free passes TO
the State Fair.
The opinion was rendered at the
request of President MatloOk. Of the
State Board, after Attorney l.. II.
McMahan had boen refused access TO
a list Of State Fair passes already
issued to people all over the state
and had drawn up the papers In an
action to restrain the board from
honoring the passes already issued
or from issuing any more.
Secretary Welch. OF the State
Board, gives 1t as his opinion that
the passes already issued will be
called In and that no more will be
issued.
McMahan says that II he 10 not
given assurance that this will be done
he will proceed with his suit.
The Attorney General states that
the ruling will not shut out news
paper men where tickets are given
in exchange for advertising. but that
the board has no authority to give
tickets to the press without compen.
Bation.

Government Seeks to Recover Land.
Portland-Suit to recover lands
granted the Oregon & California
Railroad Company (now the South
ern Pacific Company. and valued at
more than $40,000,000, began last
week, when B. d. Townsend, special
assistant to the Attorney General,
flled complaint with the Federal
Court This action, which has been
In contemplation for several years
and which received an impetus when
the Oregon Legislature of 1907 sent
q memorial to Congress. will be the
most important legal battle ever pre-.
cipitated in the Pacific Northwest
More than year OF preliminary
preparation has been consumed, and
with the fling of the complaint the
Government has fortified its case to
the smallest detail.
The case will be bitterly fought by
the railroad corporation, for the
lands involved represent some OF the
best timber on the Pacific Coast, II
not In the world, While a conserva
tive estimate places the amount in
volved at $4,000, 900, the actua
value Of the land and timber Is much
greater. The suit will eventually
so to the United States Supreme
Court before the railroads will stoT
fighting for this Midas territory.

A SHORT SPEECH.

Made by an Indian Chief in Reply to
Government Agent.
Old h-bah-Skong, tn head chief
of Mile Lac, brought all his warriors
to defend Fort Ripley In 1862. The
secretary of the interior and the gov
ernor and legislature Of Minnesota
promised these Indians that for this
act of bravery they should have the
special care Of the government and
never be removed.
A few years later a special agent
was sent from Washington to ask the
Ojibways to cede their lands and re-
move to a country north of Leech lake.
The agent asked my help. I said:
II know that country. have camp
ed on it. 1t is the most worthless strip
of land in Minnesota. The Indians are
not fools. Don't attempt this folly.
You will surely come to grief"
He called the Indians in council and
said:
My red brothers, your great father
has heard how you have been wrong
ed He said, I will send them an hon
est man. He looked in the north, the
south, the east and the west When
he saw me, he said, This is the honest
man whom l will send to my red chill
dren.' Brothers, look at me! The winds
Of fifty-five years have blown over my
head and silvered it with gray, and in
all that time l have never done wrong
10 any man: AS your friend 1 ask
you to sign this treaty"
Old Shah-bah-Skong sprang to his
feet and said:
"AIy friend, look at me! The winds
of more than fifty winters have blown
over my head and silvered it with gray,
but they have not blown my brains
away"
That council was ended
