News Causes Surprise.

Pendleton business men, white
renters and the Indians, declare they
are dumbfounded by the apparent re-
lieving of McFatridge from office
without cause or proper hearing. In
all his many years experience in the
Indian service, DR.. McChesney de-
clared today he never heard of any
thing just like it. Being a personal
friend of Major McFatridge for many
years and holding him in the highest
regard, relative to his efficiency, in
tegrity and every other qualification.
he Is st!ll further at loss to account
for the strange proceeding.
McFatrdge Is generally regarded
as having been unusually successful
in harmonizing all interests having
dealings with the reservation. The
business men of Pendleton will testi-
fly as one man in regard to his char
acter and ability and for the first
time In the history of the reservation
the same thing can also be said of
the white renters
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1909-05-11
Had Done Good Work.


Not only has he been held in high
regard here, but he has also appar-
emily stood high in the estimation of
the Indian department. 1t was only
a few weeks since he went back to
Washington and secured concessions
for which business men ,stockmen and
renters have been pleading for years.
Among these were the opening of the
free roads across tire reservation and
the change In the method of making
payments to Indians.
The last change was the most rad
ical ever made in the management of
the affairs Of Indians on any reser-
walton In the United States and ap-
parently indicated that the depart
ment reposed all confidence in the
integrity and ability of McFatridge.
The classification of the Indians ac-
cording to the new arrangement had
been completed and the new plan
was to have been put into operation
next week. The new turn in affairs
will cause delay, much to the cha
grin of the Indians and to the busi-
ness men.

They Lost Out.

The City foot ball team lost in
their game played at Ashland
last Sunday afternoon with the
Naval Reserve team, but it was
simply case of hard luck. The
boys went over prepared to play
good ball but the field was not in
condition and the game had to
be played in the mud. Both
teams made one touchdown but
Washburn failed to kick goal,
which lost them the game. Their
playing was far superior to that
of the Ashland team but 1T was
difficult to make any gains on ac-
count of the bad field. The game
was a very clean one all the way
through and the decisions OF
Referees Uptogrove and kearns
were satisfactory to all. A re-
turn game will be played here
some time during Novem Der.

MANY TO HUNT DEER
Large Number Of licenses haze
Been Issued.
Season of Slaughter Will Soon
Begin. Who Will be
the Victims.

The annual deer season will
open two weeks from today.
The slaughter of deer and OF
hunters will then begin. The
last twenty days in November is
the time of year when the woods
are full of hunters, good, bad
and Indifferent. What the NOR
tality will be this year is prob
lem which time will tell. Few
seasons have passed without the
death of one or more hunters in
this vicinity, There has been
ISSUED in this county nearly a
Thousand licenses, and it is ex-
pected that fully five hundred
more will be issued before the
season opens. Each hunter is
permitted to kill one deer.
Thousands of hunters from other
counties in the state also hunt in
Bayfield, county. 1t is safe to
say that there will be fully five
thousand hunters in the woods
during deer season.

County Will Have to pay More
This Year.
Our Apportionment is Nearly
$4,000. Larger Than
Last Year.

Bayfield, county will be called
upon to pay $2899.14 more state
tax this year than last. This is
our share of the expense Of build
ing the state capitol. This item
has never before been spread on
the tax rolls of the state, but this
year the first installm ment Of the
apportionment to Bayfield, coun-
ty is over $27oO.OO. This ac-
counts for practically all OF the
increase in state taxes. The as
sessment of property in the
county this year shows an in
crease of over 100000 over last
year. The total assessment of
all property in the county last
year was $9.O23,9 9o8, while this
year it is 50, 9,128,145. The final
returns of all assessment in the
county have been completed and
full compilation has been made
at the County Clerks Office.
Some of the figures may be IN
teresting. There are 24O2 horses
in the county assessed at an
average of $72.47, there are 411O
cattle assessed at az average of
$17.74, 9 mules average assess
ment $61.66, 600 sheep with an

swine assessed at an average OF
$5.42, 2277 wagons and sleighs
assessed at an average of $12.59,
II watches at an $500 average,
303 pianos at a $91.66 average.
There was $4,000 worth of leaf
tobacco assessed in the town of
Bayfield,, undoubtedly found in
some cigar factory; as we are
not aware that any of the weed
is being raised in the town OF
Bayfield,. Only one bicycle was
assessed and that was in the
town OF Eileen, it was valued al
1000. There was one automo
bile assessed at Iron River and
another at bayfield, the two being
on the roll at $225.OO. The total
amount Of personal property or
the tax roll this year is 81, ,099, 444
and the total of real estate is
| $7, 1928, 7O1. There are 903, ,92(
acres of land on the rolls assess

A few weeks ago an item ap-
peared in an Evansvill paper con-
corning the suit brought by a
Houghton, Wis. man against the
State of Wisconsin for damages
done his crops by deer.
The writer stated that there
was question as to the man s
having any crops. He probably
shared the mistaken opinion OF
many others, who consider this
the point over which Peary and
Cook are disputing.
Vegetation has hardly been
touched by frosts and the
weather has been ideal. Persons
doubling the ability of the land
in this district to produce good
crops should have seen the ex-
hibits at the Bayfield, and Ash
land county fairs, held in Iron
River and Ashland, respectively.

exhibits were finer than have

STOPS BARNARD MEN,

Banners.

Lloyd c. Griscom. former Ambassador to
Italy. who is managing the business mems
campaign for Mr.. Barnard denounced
yesterday the behavior of George F. Scan

ing up the permits for Barnard banners in
business streets. Scannell is the Tammany
leader OF the 18th Assembly District Mr..
Griscom said:
III is a most outrageous condition of af-
fairs But IT is very fair specimen Of the
kind OF administration the people of New
York have inflicted upon them. The Tam

sentative.
I'VE had intended to raise twelve banners
to-day. Unless the permits are issued inn
mediately. J. Anderson HAYES. of our ex-
ecutive committee, will apply for writ of
peremptory mandamus.
I'VE have already 554 members enrolled,
and they are all thoroughly aroused by
the hindrances which have been put in the
way Of our campaign. These hindrances
only emphasize the need for putting in the
