Pendleton people of the Catholic
faith will henceforth find the be-
trothal and marriage laws of the
church more exacting than in the
past. The following abstract of the
laws as they will exist after Easter
has just been published by order of
Archbishop Alexander Christie:
Engagements.
First-Every formal matrimonial
engagement after Easter must be in
writing, although there is no neces-
sity nor obligation to enter into for
NAL engagement before marriage.
Second-In the eyes of the church
and before God, private betrothal af-
ter Easter between Catholic parties,
or between fallen-away Catholics, be-
gets no matrimonial obligation what
ever, because the church DEGREES that
every prenuptial contract is void un-
less 1t is written and duly attested.
Third-Parties wishing to become
engaged must sign the prenuptial con-
tract and have the bishop or their
pastor witness it. In the absence of
the bishop or duly authorized priest,
two witnesses must sign the agree
ment If one or both of those to be
engaged cannot write, this should be
noted, and three lay witnesses must
sign the engagement in the absence
of the bishop or the parish priest.
Fourth-These engagements should
be encouraged. If made some months
before marriage, they will help to
stop hasty alliances which are the
cause of so many divorces outside the
church and of so many unhappy mar
riages among Catholics.
Fifth-This written contract would
furnish good grounds in our civil
courts for breach of promise suit.
Sixth-Protestants and all who have
not been baptised in the Catholic
faith are not subjects of this law,
hence their private contracts bind, for
the simple reason that the church has
not made these conditions under
which they must enter into an en-
| gagement.
Seventh-All fallen-away Catholics,
whether they have become protestants
or infidels. are bound by the law. The
church, like the state, can bind her
refractory subjects.
Marriage.
l. Every bishop Cor vicar general
or administrator of a diocese) can
validly marry in his own diocese any
parties, irrespective of the country or
place whence they come. The bishop
can delegate any priest to do the
same.
2. Bishops or priests may not as
sist at marriages until they have as
sumed office.
8. There is no marriage at all, II
the priest be compelled to witness It,
There is no marriage If the priest
does not ask and receive the consent
of the parties.

Portland, Ore, March 23.-One OF
the most convincing compilations Of
facts ever circulated to advertise a
given section of country is "one
Thousand Facts of Production" COL
Iected by j. r. Shepard, giving actu-
al results of producers throughout the
Willamette valley.
This compilation deals with fruit,
vegetables, livestock, cereals, grasses,
poultry, hops and nuts. A. F. Hofer,
secretary of the Salem Board of Trade,
will be glad to send this to any ad-
dress, and it is character of infor-
nation that should be in the hands
of every active newspaper man as
well as the officers of every COM
mercial body throughout the state of
Oregon, and in fact all over the
United States.
Albany TO the Front.
A fund Of $4,000 for publicity pur-
poses, with the assurance that this
will be increased to over $4,000, places

Oregon communities. At the enthus-
astic "get-together" meeting held Fri
day night which was responsible for
this result, Governor Chamberlain
and Tom Richardson of the Portland
Commercial club, made rouslng adj
dresses. More than 800 people par
ticipated in the banquet.
Wheat Exports.

Ords for foreign shipments were
broken in February Portland lead
ing all the wheat shipping ports of
the entire United States with 2,279,-
T92 bushels; Puget sound was second

ures will not fall far behind those for
February.
Excursion 10 HermistOn.

sions of her business men out to points
of interest throughout her trade ter
ritory in the northwest, than any

Would Add Fl P0S0
to New MeXiCO

Francis Tracy Tobin the prominent
Philadelphia attorney who is in Denver
representing Dr. S. A. Knopfin in his
100000 damage suit against the Phila-
delphia North American, has novel plan
for the division of power and
p 0 LII tt c a prestige between the
territories of New Mexico and Ari-
IONA, and one that is worthy of attention.
Mr.. Tobin was candidate for the terri
torial governorship of New Mexico when
Governor Otero was appointed, and has
studied conditions there. The plan is to
cut off slice ofTexas including El Paso.
and join it to New Mexico. Also to an
mex the Pennington section of New Mex
leo to Colorado, as petitioned by that sec
ton at the last session of the New Mex
iCan Legislature.
El Paso is republican while the rest of
Texas is democratic. 1t is, he claims, in
dependent in resources and many other
ways from Texas and fitted to be the
metropolis in view of its recent great
growth, of state. 1t would also greatly
add to the power and population of New
Mexico and give it a better show to get
along and more right to demand state
hood, Arizona is distinct from New Mex
co in the character OF its people, its re-
sources and interests, and for that reason
he does not believe in President Roose-
velts plan to unite the two territories a.
one state. Both Phoenix and Santa F.
have handsome territorial houses and
would seem a great loss in money in thi
respect alone to abolish one capital unless
the plan of Rhode Island were followed.
| Mr.. Tobin was refused the appointment
as the governor to New Mexico because
he was a non resident, but he expects tc
become a resident of New Mexico soor
and be a candidate for the chief executive
office of the territory again. He was ap'
pointed commissioner for New Mexico tc

NEW BUILDINGS
HND NEW PAINT
Show Prosperity in the Metropolis of
the Valley

That hard times are not rampant IN
Estancia is shown by the Improvements
now going on, both in new buildings and
renovation Of old. During the past week,
The Valley Lumber Company, Of which
J. N. Bush is manager, has opened its
wards across from Nisbett Livery, and is
preparing to handle share Of business
in this line.
Milton Dow has begun the erection of
A business building for rental purposes be-
tween the Valley Hotel and the Krick
building on Fifth street. The business
houses of Estancia have never suffered
for want of renters and no doubt the
prosperity heretofore exporlencedin this
manner will not be broken.
Both the Valley Hotel and the hfI0k
Building arc receiving new coats of paint
adding greatly to the appearance as well
as the durability Of the same.
Mrs. CcIo5tino Ortiz has had the paper
hangers and painters busy, reno7atng
the rooms over the Ortiz Grocery, making
Of these some of the most attractive rooms
in the city, A new hardwood floor in Dr.
Sunderlands reception rooms in the Lentz
building has transformed the appearance
of this already attractive place,
Other parts of the country may be Sutt-
ering from apparent business depression
but these facts tend to show that Estan-
clans have faith in the Valley, are going
after business and getting it. This IS
class Of news we are glad to publish as
it shows the spirit Of our people, both
businessmen and patrons. May it con-
tlnua.

For Best Exhibit Of Truck Grown on Ten Acres of Land or more
Under irrigation. Value of Plant about One
Thousand Dollars

Numerous prizes have been offered as
awards or premiums at the coming lr-
rigation Congress in Albuquerque next
October. Here is one that is well
worth striving for, and which we
would be more than pleased to see
carried away by some Estancla
farme-. If there is any reason why an
Estancian should not bring it home
with him after the Congress, we wish
some one would rise up and tell US.
We take the article complete from the
Industrial Advertiser. Let our farm
ers get busy.
One of the best prizes to be given at
the Irrigation Congress is the trophy
offered by the Hendrie & Bolthof Manu-
featuring Supply company, of Denver.
The offer is made in the followigg let
ter received by Colonel Twitchell, and
the prize is one worth the time and
work of any gardner as it is worth a
bout 81, 900. The letter explains itself:

Dear Sir
Per your request, the writer talked
with the management regarding the
