The meeting, according to Mr..
Gwinn. was one of the most successful
and harmonious ever held by the as
sociation. At the time of his depart
ure the sentiment of the convention
was entirely for Pendleton as the next
meeting place of the association.
Mr. Gwinn advocated a commission
in each state to make rules for the
various reserves such as would be ap-
plicable to local conditions of the
stock industry. the commission to be
composed of three practical sheep
men, and two forestry men. He de-
clared that there was no attack upon
the administration of the forestry re-
serve from a forestry standpoint. but
the forestry service was incapable of
administering the grazing features to
the satisfaction of the sheepmen, and
that through such a commission the
thing could be handled to the sails
faction of all.
Besides Judge Ellis and Mr.. Gwinn
among the Pendleton men who were
prominent upon the program Of the
association meeting was DR.. Mcclure, |
of the bureau OF animal in |
dustry In the northwest, who spoke |
on Tuesday evening at the orpheum
theater in that city upon bacterlology
and animal parasites in relation to
the sheep industry.

tanning the stability of the markets.

OLD CEMETERY
DOOMED AGAIN
COUNCIL WILL APPEAL TO
LEGISLATURE FOR AID
States Law Makers Will Be Asked TO
Pass Bill Giving the City the
Right 90 Remove Bodies from Old
Burying Ground in North Pendle-
ton-Has Long Been An Eye-sore
TO City.

The legislature of oregon at its
next session will be asked to vacate
the old Pendleton cemetery to the
city of Pendleton for park purposes
and give the city the right to remove
the dead therefrom to the Olney
cemetery below town, if the plans
now being made are carried out.
At the council meeting last night
Mayor Murphy appointed City Attor-
ney ]. r. Raley and Councilman ]. T.
Hinkle, a committee to confer with
the cemetery trustees for the purpose
of formulating plans and the project
will be we'll under way within a
short time.
The cemetery at present is an eye
sore and in its unkempt condition a
disgrace, and the trustees are anxious
to secure some arrangement whereby
they will be relieved of their trust,
and at the same time the plot will be
dedicated to the memory of those
whose bones have been there inferred.
Although the matter has never been
carefully gone into by the attorneys,
it is the general impression that an
act of the legislature will be neces-
sary before the change can be made
and if after investigation this is
found to be the case a bill covering
the matter will be drawn and pre-
sented by Umailla county's delegation
at the next session of the legislature.
The plan now is to have the plot
vacated to the city, which in turn
will transfer the remains of those
buried therein to Olney cemetery.
The old cemetery will then be plow-
ed, seeded to a lawn, trees will be
planted and a monument of some
sort erect to the memory of those I!
buried therein.
The trustees of the cemetery. L. !
L. Livermore, Ed Mrrshall and Harl. |

The plan, it is said, and as the coun-
I'll is anxious to have something done .
With the cemetery the plan will prob
'bly meet with the united support of

NEXT ANNUAL MEETING Of STATE

turned from Heppner where he ad-
dressed the convention upon the for
estry service and its relation to the
livestock industry. Mr.. Gwinn's ad-
dress was plea for a better under
standing between the forestry service
and the sheepmen, and he strongly
advocated that the advisory board in
the administration of the forest re-
serve policy be composed of practi-
cal western men who were thorough
ly familiar with the needs of the in
dustry,
There was strong sentiment
throughout the meeting for a more
just administration of the reserve pol
icy from the sheepman's standpoint.
and President Burgess also touched
on the subject of the continued cuts
in the grazing limit of sheep each
year in the national reserves, and
called upon the members to urge
and senator's to stand
together upon the wants of the sheep
men and by their great influence de-
mand that the national forest service

sheepmen He Will Endeavor to Sc
cure More Liberal Interpretation OF
Regulathons-Win Also Endeavor to
Prevent Reduction OF Wool Tariff.

When Congressman Ellis returns
to Washington this fall 1t will be with
the purpose, among others, of using
every means possible to secure for
the sheepmen OF eastern Oregon n
better and more reasonable working
OF the governments forest reserve
policy Congressman Ellis has Just
returned from Heppner, where he at
tended the annual convention OF the
oregon Woolgrowers association. be-
ing the first congressional represen-
tatlve OF this state TO ever take the
trouble to confer with the leaders in
that industry over the needs OF their
interests.
The forest reserve policy has come
to stay" said Congressman Ellis this
morning. at seems to be n wise pre-
caution on the part of our govern
ment for the conservation OF its re-
sources, and I would as soon think OF
butting up against a stone wall as OF
fighting that policy which is just as
much a part OF the national govern
ment as is the postoffice department.
The only thing then is to secure
wise administration of such pol
icy. In my opinion the men at the
head OF the forestry service are good
men. many times of academic ideas,
who are left to enforce It.
This thing is not as immutable as
the laws rof the Medes and Persians.
The men In charge OF enforcing the
reserve policy should be allowed some
latitude. some chance to exercise COM
mon sense. In my opinion the fric-
tlon between the woolgrowers and the
forestry service is matter Of trifling
details that are put forward, rough
edge foremost, and make trouble
where common sense and tact would
result in complete harmony.
Therefore / hope to do whatever
Is possible toward securing a more
liberal Interpretation, at the same
time expecting the men of the service
to use common sense and justice and
prevent any sheepman from "fudg-
ing" to protect the interests Of the in
dustry and of the government as well.
Now as to the tariff on wool.
There is general sentiment all over
this nation for reduction of the tar
iff. II appears to me that tariff re-
vision will be matter of give and |
take. Consequently the people OF
eastern Oregon who are affected by
the tariff on wool only among all pro-
ducts on the schedule, may have to |
take a cut IN that commodity but IL is
my hope, that II such cut must be !
made to do all in my power to turn |
Il in such way as to do the least |
possible harm to my constituents"
Judge Ellis met with very hearty |
welcome among the woolmen in at
tendance AT the convention and upon
his appearance before them in dis
cussion of the interests of that in
dustry was greeted with much cheer
ing and applause.
