MARKET DAY FOR WAITSBURG
Sees Success of Scheme I'm PendletOI
and Starts Similar Custom.

Waitsburg has patterned after
Pendleton and has established a Sc
ries of market days, the first to be
held on Saturday, January 25.
The success of Pendleton's first
day induced Waitsburg to try the ex-
pertinent and the event is now being
extensively advertised throughout
the inland empire.
Pendleton was the first town in
the inland empire to establish a reg
ular market day and the excellent
results from this have already been
felt in many ways. All the coast pa
pers have advertised Pendleton's sue
cess and the coming market days will
bring many prominent buyers here
from all parts of the country.
In speaking of the matter today a
prominent merchant said that he
hopes to see Pendleton become the
horse market of the northwest The
range districts, the climate and rail-
road facilities are all here and he
says that there is no reason why this
industry should not take a leading
place here. "If we can induce lead
ing horse buyers to come here and
invest their money among Pendleton
and Umatilla county people we will
not only attract attention to Pendle-
ton, but we can build up an excel
lent market for Umatilla county peo-
pie and create a demand for more Of
our products"

Streeter and Bryan as John Storm
and Glory Quayle have never been
surpassed in any production of "The
Christian" in this city and their sup
port was also excellent Harry j.
Terry as Horatio Drake and Bert
Hadley as Sir Robert Ure deserve
especial mention for good acting,
their parts in the cast being more
prominent than any of the other
members aside from the leading
roles.
But the entire company showed a
good conception of the play and en-
tered into 1t with spirit and enthusi-
asm and 1t is safe to say that the
production OF "The Christian" Is the
most artistic and thoroughly dra-
matte of any production given by the
company this winter.
"The Christian" will be presented
tonight and Saturday night and de-
serves good support and patronage as
1t Is really meritorious play and is
given at the extremely low prices
adopted by the Streeter-Bryan COM
pany, while a travelling company
would charge three times the price
which Pendleton now pays
On next Sunday night the Streeter-
Bryan company will begin the pro-
duction of "The Round Up" one Of
the greatest Of New York successes.

VIII Run TO Butte Soon.
Work has advanced so rapidly that
trains will probably be running be-
tween st. Paul and Butte some time
in May or June BY the middle OF
February II is expected that most of
the construction work will be finish
ed. Already the grading has been
practically completed and rails are
being laid at the rate of four miles a
day
Marmath, to which trains will be
run next week, is about 200 miles
west of the Missouri river. While
construction crews are advancing
westward from this place others are
working eastward along the Mussel-
shell valley. 1t is thought that the
two lines will be connected and the
bridge built across the Yellowstone at
Miles City by the middle OF next
month.
According to present plans the Mil
waukee & st. Paul's coast extension
will be completed to Seattle early in
1909.

c. NJ. Humphreys, deputy assessor
of Union county, and one of the most
capable young men in this work in
eastern Oregon, is in the city today
visiting with Assessor Strain on his
return to La Grande from the state
assessors meeting held in Portland
this week.
Mr.. Humphreys says that there was
but a light attendance at the assess
ors' meeting in Portland. only 10 as
SCISSORS out of 33 in the state being
present and but little interest taken
in the subjects up for discussion.
The meeting went on record
against the proposed tax law of the
Oregon Tax Reform league for the
reason that 1t was thought by those
present that it savored too strongly Of
the single tax idea.
However. there is a strong senti-
ment even among the opponents of
the reform leagues proposed law that
something must be done to stop ex-
cessive land holding and to force
spectators to pay their just share
Of the taxes graduated land tax
to check large land holdings and a
higher assessment for vacant lots on
which owners will not build are
among the remedies proposed for the
equalization Of taxes and to proomte
the settlement of the country.
The Oregon Daily Journal says of
the action of the assessors meeting:
Members of the oregon association
of assessors placed themselves on
record at their final meeting yester-
day afternoon against the proposed
initiative petition to do away with
taxation on dwelling houses, factories,
farming implements and property de-
voted to educational. municipal, SCI
entific and charitable purposes.
The members listened to an address
by County Assessor B. D. Sigler in
which he declared the petition was
unfair to other property owners.
Before adjourning the members
elected Mr.. Sigler president, and T.
]. Nelson, assessor of Clackamas
county, secretary. The next meeting
will be held in Portland January IL.

In Grande-Receptlon and Dance
Enjoyed.
The girls basket ball team of PEN
dleton high school returned on No.
l today from La Grande, where they
were victorious over the girls team
of La Grande high school In a most
exciting contest last evening. The
game was won by a clever play on
the part of Miss Eunice Vogel, who
tossed the ball squarely in the basket
for neat field goal after the entire
game had been played to a tie.
At the end of the first half of the
game the score stood to 2, and when
time was called at the end of the
second half the score was still a tie
at to 4. According to the rules of
the game the playing must continue
until one or the other side has regis
tered a score. The playing continued
but brief while, when Miss Vogel
cllnched the game for the Pendleton
team by her clever play.
The game was exciting throughout
and 1t Is said by those who were for
tunate enough to see the game to
have been one Of the best girls con-
tests ever played. Mis- Mona John
son is responsible for the other four
points made by the Pendleton girls.
Following the game last night the
visitors from Pendleton were tender
ed reception and dance by the La
Grande people and a highly enjoyable
time was spent.

Petition for More School Territory

School district No. so has petition
ed for an additional allowance of
territory for school purposes on the
west of the district. The district lies
northeast of the Pendleton district
and the territory desired is a part OF
that that was petitioned for by the
Pendleton district some weeks ago.
However. 1t is probable that the Pc
tition of district so will be allowed,
as this will throw the pupils in a ter
ritory to a school house within half
a mile Of the territory, whereas they
would be compelled to come six
miles to attend the school in the PEN
dleton district.

American Apples in Norway.

Consul General Henry Brodewich,
of Christiania, states that American
dried and evaporated apple products
are freely used in Norway. The total
annual import of dried apples exceeds
100000 pounds, of which 100000
pounds come from the United States
direct, but a much larger part of the
import is also American product sold
to Norway by German jobbers, but
is credited as imports from Germany.

An English Dinner.

Some time ago reader asked for
menu to be served to some English
friends, TO be typical of their own
country.
This is what our neighbors across
the water would probably serve: First,
soup. clear or thick; then fish, baked
or broiled, served whole, garnished
with lemon, parsley, or a sauce; game
or a roasted fowl with celery would be
next followed by a roast OF beef, or
leg Of mutton with mashed potatoes
and one other vegetable like aspara-
gus q. caulinower. The salad would
be pain greens OF some kind with a
French dressing. never mayonnaise.
Sometimes the salad is served with
the roast For dessert, delicate pud-
dings, fresh fruits, water ice, sell
dom ice cream; in the season, mince
pie and plum pudding are favorites.
Cheese OF all kinds will be in evil
dence with small crisp crackers, called
biscuits by our English cousins.
Relishes, such as olives and salted
nuts, are next placed on the table, not
served through the meal as we have
them or as the Russians do. Coffee Is
served in the drawing-room with sugar
and liQueurs, never cream.
