B0UIHT THE lL0UR MILL,

The Times-llerald has Just
learned this morning that the
local flour mill together with the
land, power plant, water rights,
etc has been purchased by sever
al of our local business men and
the company will at once incor-
porate and enlarge the business
in various ways. Those making
the purchase were G. f. McKin-
ney, VIM, Miller, j. G. Welcome
Jr., !. Schwartz, Goo Frv, Ben
Brown, j. NJ. Dalton, G. A. Rem
bold, the price paid being $780,
600.
This is an important step for
Burns and the farmers Of this
county for the new company will
be in a position for the better
ment Of all concerned. 70 pay
the farmers II cents per pound
for milling wheat 50 longas there
is no competition is one Of the
policies ut once adopted by the
new owners. This means a good
profit in raising wheat.
The company will be formally
organized and incorporated next
week aad the officers elected, at
which time the objects will be
more fully set forth and ourread-
ers may expect some interesting
information regarding it in our
next issue.

II IS Up TO THE PEOPLE

Do the people Of Burns really
want city officers who win do
their duty and strictly enforce
the ordinances now In existance?
If so they can have them, but
they riust first make up their
min to back them Up in their
efforts. That is the secret Of
the present situation. Put men
in Office who viii do their duty
without fear or favor who win
play no fayorites- and we can
accomplish something Do we
want officers who will enforce
the ordinances regarding vag-
rants, boWdy houses, public
health, who will not allow refuse,
filth, manure, etc, to collect and
other similar ordinances? All
that is necessary is for the busi-
ness interests 10 select such men

'sr'Tld Ny Chem, There has been
a disposition in the past to shift
the responsibility from one Of
hcer to another; business men
would not support officers who
really attempted to do their duty
for fear of iniuring their busi-
ness; the city put up a PROPOSE
tion 20 the circuit court district
attorney or grand jury and then
have it shifted back to the city
to look after its own affairs, etc.
This has simply got to be "cut
OUT and every law abiding cj
zen assume such responsibility as
is necessary and see to that pub
lie officers live up to their oaths
and do their duty If they fail
in this invoke The recall and kick
them out
The Times-lierald wishes to be
charitable but it knows that our
public officers have not done their
duty in The past This is not al-
together Che fault Of the officers
as the people fail to give them
the moral support they should,
However this is only half an ex-
cuse for any public officer who
would show a determination to
strictly enforce the law would be
backed by decent citizens to the
last ditch! If there are ordiu-
auces that should not be on the
books Jhe better way to find it
out is TO enforce it so people may
see the injustice and it may be
repealed oY modified.

NEW STATE OF EASTERN ORGdONp

Some Of the prominent people
/ of Eastern Oregon are advocat-
ing the division of the state and
forming another commonwealth,
which is to include that part of
Oregon east of the Cascade
mountains. 7. j. Monroe, a
prominent stockman of Mitchell,
in an interview in the Oregon
journal says:
we east of the mountains,
are in dire need of something of
the kind. We feel that we have
been slow to develop; and the
lack of state and federal institu-
tons only goes to prove that we
have been cared for by factory
made politicians. We are sadly
in need of a large experiment
station to assist us in the science
Of dry farming to say nothing
of what we need in way of asylums
for the blind, the deaf mute, 70
insane. A reform school would
be'in order, and what about a
penitentiary?
we stockmen are forced TO
spend hundreds of dollars in or
der to get the least recognition
in the way Of legislation in our
line. And our representatives
in the legislature must fight like
demons to even get a pleasant
smile for Eastern Oregon. In
the isolated counties such as
Crook, Wheeler, Grant, Malheur
and Harney, we need a system
of good roads, and state assis- |
tance in maintaining them, but
we might as well ask for n u. S. |
Senator from Eastern Oregon. |
This may seem foolish talk to /
some Of you. but the older set /
tiers will bear me out in the |
statement, that the forming of n
new state here in Eastern Oregon
is the one paramount issue when
/ comes TO doing something for
-he development of our resource
'ul country.
THE attitude which a certain
stripe Of politicians displayed to-
ward George Chamberlain, the
peoples choice Tin Eastern Ore
yon) goes to prove that the soon
n we act the better. AS | said
,efore, ! am not alone when |
.dyocate such a move, and | shall
.se my best endeavor to enlist
he voters of my locality in an
tempt TO hold a meeting in '
ONE Of the larger Eastern Ore |
on towns either Pendleton, }
'aker City or La Grande for the :
urpose of forming a permanent ,
rganization, which shall have
or It's sole purpose a new state,
'ithin the bounds of what is Y
nown as Eastern Oregon. " !
Mr.. Monroe is one of the old I
st settlers Of Wheeler and Crook f
'unties, is democrat, but takes u
further interest in politics S
IAN a strong desire to see a
ore marked improvement in the
cans Of developing the great
sources Of Eastern Oregon.

the former.

at their disposal an endowment OF
public lands for the benefit of the

the great colleges of the east at much

Washington, June 20.--lTaft enter

there followed conference on the
proposed tax on the net earnings OF

that the president and senate leaders

Enthusiastically favor the adoption OF

It. was announced that Taft, Attor-

1t will apply to all corporations but
probably only to earnings in excess OF

worked out by the members of the
finance committee today. Taft recog-
nized the wisdom of the suggestions.
The concensus of opinion in tonight's
conference was that the tax should
not apply to interest on bonds of cor.
porations as that would in many
cases amount to double the taxation.
The members of the committee, how
ever, told the president it would be
necessary to find some way to pre-

New Jersey Man Says He Can Con
troll Centrifug>i Force--Now
Building Machine.

New York, June 20.--Robert Bar
ker of No. 1139 Madison avenue. Pat
ersOn, N. j., is at work perfecting an
invention whereby he claims that ne
has solved the problem of contrOlling
centrifugal force. TINS has been the
aim OF scientists since time i'm
memorial. To control this powerful
agent means to attain a forward mo
tion without backward thrust
which is practically against all laws
of nature. Barker has already placed
his machine on an auto that had been
divested of all mechanism, and the
car was made TO move.
But it is with reference to aerla'
navigation that Barker intends TO use
his invention. He figures that there
is no limit to what can be accom-
plished when he gets it perfected. and
talked earnestly about trave'ing q
million miles an hour when an al'i
tude of a thousand miles had beer
reached. Here he thinks there viii
be no friction from air resistance.
He figures in Mars and other plan
cts in the trip. and says that specially
arranged tanks of air can furnishe
outside pressure and thus save a per
son from being killed by the rarit,
of the pressure. A dozen men have
already interested themselves in the
invention and it may be heard from
later.
