WALLOWA NOW ON
AMUSEMENT MAP
TENTED EXHIBITION OF UNCLE
TOMS CABIN COMING TO
ENTERPRISE.

At last it is coming. A big tented
exhibition OF Uncle Toms Cabin will
exhibis in the several towns of wal
Iowa Valley. Only real genuine, 3-rine
circus and menagerie is now lacking
to put this region on the amusement
map in due and formal style. After
many years of iso'ation, Wallowa
county has been discovered by the
amusement world, thanks to the rail-
road
Everybody has seen Uncle Toms
Cabin but everybody will go to see
it again. For so years it has been
the most popular play on the stage
and it's drawing attraction seems to
increase as the years go by.
For long time it held the boards
from one week to several months
yearly in the leading theatres of the
largest cities. For many more years
it was the money maker for all rep.
ertoire shows. Then came the era
of tented exhibitions, such as Stet-
sons and the grand old play took on
"a new lease of life. The best Of
the tented shows give not only a
good presentation of the play, but
with the horses, ponies, donkeys,
bloodhounds, chariots and tableaux
floats are a pretty fair-sized menage-
rie as we'll, increasing the interest
vastly for children.
The show billed for Enterprise,
Joseph and Wallowa week after
next is Burks, long recognized as
the leading organization of the kind
now on the road. 1t comes in its
own special ears, with Pitchers
famous concert band and orchestra,
and includes a contingent of high
class vaudeville artists. The date in
Enterprise, is Tuesday, August II,
with two performances and free

ROCK VERY RICH
IN FREE GOLD
ORE FROM LOWER TUNNEL ON
WILSON MINES GLlTTERS
WITH COLOR.

John H. Wilson of Middle Valley
was in town Thursday with splendid
specimens OF rock from the new
tunnel on his claims in Wilson
Basin. The rock shows extraordinary
richness in free gold, and If appear
ances are not deceptive will assay
many times richer than the upper
tunnel rock.
These two claims, quite we'll
known for several years as Big
LEX ald Little Joe, have been de-
ve.opei steadily siIce filing, and now
promise rich reward for the faith
of the owners. Wilson basin lies
between the South Fork and the
Minam, just above the headwaters
OF Bear creek. A per cent road
less than two miles long would con-
meet the head of Bear creek canyon
with the mines.
So far two 50-foot tunnels have
been driven and 2O-foot shaft. From
the old or upper tunnel the rock
assayed 81 to So in gold, 6 to s or
9 per cent copper and a trace of
silver. The new tunnel taps the
ledge 125 foot below the old one, and
the rock is incomparably richer. An
assay of 1t will soon be had.
A creek runs across the property
and on one side is lake of 40 acres
In extent. Water rights have been
filed on the lake where small
tunnel would give great fall, furnish
ing abundance Of water power.
Associated with Mr.. Wilson in
ownership of the claim are DR.. E. I.
Anderson and A, C, Weaver of Enter
prise, Willis Jackson of Grelton,
Ohio, F. G. Con!ey of Stayton and
Mac Vetters of Middle Valley, They
say no company win be formed, nor
stock be for sale, but that develop
ment work will be carried along as
a partnership affair.
The claims are just across the
ridge from the big copper mines OF
the Contact company.

TAT t WILL SPEAK
FOR SHIP SUBSIDY
Expected to Lay Strong En-
phaSiS on Need of Mer-
chant Marine.
BY IOHN SNURE.

President Taft, in his Western trip, is
expected to lay strong emphasis on the
need for ship subsidy legislation and for
the building up OF the American mer-
chant marine.
The supporters Of ship subsidy legisla-
ton are making the most OF this fact
and are hopeful that il VIII be the
means of getting them votes in the
House next winter for the enactment
OF a subsidy law
The Merchant Marine League of the
United States, with headquarters in
Cleveland, the organization which Is
pushing with great energy the cause OF
ship subsidy, and which is sending out
speakers broadcast in the conduct of
an educational campaign in the agricui-
tural districts, says through It's month
ly publication that President Taft win
speak first in Seattle
IL advises the President, however that
II is Of little value to begin 4 campaign
among people already in favor Of sub
sidy legislation. Il urges the President
TO give his attention TO the middle West
and to the South. 1t says the farmers
or the South, especially Of the great
state Of Texas. all want Information on
the merchant marine, and it urges that
the president do not confine what he
has 10 say In support OF subsidy leglsla-
ton TO Seattle, but talk on this subject
in other parts Of the country.
According to the Official organ of the
league, sign that the agricultural
parts Of the country are beginning to
- converted to the need of ship sub
sides Is seen I'm the action Of the Farm
eIS' Union of Texas in recently ADOPTING
resolutions in favor of building I'D the
merchant marine
Many evidences are given that the
greatest campaign yet carried on in be-
half of ship subsidy legislation is now
atoot in various parts Of the country.
Not only through speakers but by the
distribution of literature and in other
ways is this campaign being carried on
al the signs are that the susidy dues-
ton viii be extremely live from the
opening day of Congress. The test will
come in the House, which has always
been close In recent years on the sub
sidy question, as the Senate win pass a
bill.

MONSTER VETERAN
GATHERING PLANNED
Movement TO Have All Amer
lean Organizations Join in
One Convention.
GEN. BURT WORKING
ON BIG SCHEME
Proposition Is to Have Meeting
Held in Washington
In 1911.

The first gun In the biggest convention
scheme ever devised for washington
Will be fired at Erie. Pa. this week
when Brig. Cen Andrew s Burt and
his associates OF the Army and Navy
Union, request that organization to
meet with every other veterans organi-
zation in the country In annual conven-
tom in this city sometime during the
summer OF 1911. General Burt and his
associates are confident OF success and
have gone into the scheme after can
vassing all Of the big veteran bodies in
the county. They declare that they can
secure the 1911 conventions OF every one
OF them and viii form a permanent or
ganization for this purpose IN Erie
which win open PERMANENT headquar-
ters and carry its fight into every annual
convention. The Army and Navy Union.
It is claimed, is especially well qualified
10 do this because it includes among its
members representatives OF every one
Of the organizations OF veterans.
The principal organizations TO be
brought together in the scheme are:
Army and Navy Union, Grand Army
OF TIE Republic, United Spanish War
Veterans. Society of Veterans of Indian
Wars. United Confederate Veterans.
Union. and Military Order OF the Loyal
Legion.
These arc the eight largest orsanizs-
lions Of veterans IN the country and
represent a total OF almost a million
members. In addition there are certain
auxiliary bodies that meet with these
organizations. The Women's Relief
Corps. the Sons Of ' eterans, the Daugh-
tiers of the Confederacy, and the various
Spanish War au1iliaries invariably
meet with the larger bodies. Then there
are subsidiary organizations OF the vet
Grams themselves that would be enter
tanned.
General Burt believes that the great
est crowd ever brought to washington
could be assembled here for this big
gathering and that the scheme for The
various conventions is simplicity itself.
Recalling the G. a r convention
held here IN 1892. It Is pointed out that
many public buildings were utilized as
quarters for the visitors. and a camp
was esta blished on the White Lot
where other quarters were provided,
and where the meetings of the conven-
ton were held il is pointed out that
the same thing could be done at the
big veterans gathering, and that each
organization could be furnished with a
tent. where its meetings could be held
and each organization could have its
camp.
II is proposed 20 make this camp one
OF the biggest things Of its Kind ever
established and TO have II include repre-
sentatiTes. not only OF the veterans
bodies. but Of the regular army and
navy and the militia Of the several
States. One Of the features Of the
meeting would be a monster parade OF
veterans, with the regular army and
navy and the militia as escort, which
would be reviewed by the President
General Burt and his associates favor
setting a date IN September or Octo-
her for the convention. when good
weather could be assured.
