officers at the center Of the principal
facades, and the smaller apartments be-

the principal quarters Is thirty by forty
feet: those OF the colonel and lieutenant
colonel. however, being 81 by Is feet
on the outer face, IN order to give size
enough to secure adequate light and air
on the inner side Of the quadrangle.
The court within the officers quarters
is to be 293 feet by 523 feet. The
rear side Of the quadrangle is allotted
Ia quarters for the men, and an extern
sion Of the building enclosing another
quadrangle to the rear affords sufficient
barracks and storeraoms. The plan is
wholly tentative at present, and, If ap-
proved, Will be first tried probably IN
Hawaii.

N0MEN'S WOES
Honolulu Women Are Finding Relief

It does seem that women have more
than a fair share Of the aches and
pains that affliet humanity; they must

headaches, dizzy spells, bearing down

other organ Of the body. Keep the

The Need Of a Larger West Point.
Less than thirtv-nine per cent. of the
whole number of officers in the United
States Army are graduates If the West
Point Military Academy, and each grad
uating class is about eighty short of
the number necessary to officer the
Army. These facts viii form the basis
Of an effort to be made next winter
by the President and the secretary of
war to induce congress to increase by
125 the number of cadets to be appoint
ed TO the academy every three years,
instead Of every four years, as at pres
ent. The present strength of the corps
of cadets at West Point was established
many years ago when the Army con
sisted of only $4,000 men. In 1901
the Army was increased to its present
strength of $4,000 men and $500 officers.
About the same time congress author
lied a project for enlarging the plant
at the military academy and has from
year to year made appropriations ag-
gregating about $6,500,0 for the con
struetion Of new buildings and the en-
largement Of existing ones, but no in
crease has yet been made in the size
Of the corps Of cadets.
The work on these improvements at
West Point is making rapid progress
toward completion, and the superintend-
emit, Colonel Scott, says thai by next
spring the Improvements will have been
advanced sufficiently to accommodate
$50 cadets.
The plan to be recommended by the
war department for increasing the corps
Of cadets provides the appointment shall
be made every three years, instead of
every four years, so that each member
of congress, senator and the President
viii make appointments more frequent
", and there will be no disturbance in
the method of distributing such ap-
pointments. A similar plan was adopt
ed when the corps of cadets at the
naval academy was increased to its
present size It is thought there will be
no strong opposition in congress 10 the

The reader of a newspaper will
readily agree that it is necessary
for a merchant, with any preten-
sion to progressiveness, to ad-
vertise. But this would not be
true if it were not equally true
that it is necessary for the read
er of the newspaper, if he or she
have any pretensions to progress
siveness, to read and answer the
ads.
These are twin facts, twin nee
essities. Whatever is of enough
Importance for the merchant to
pay for the privilege of saying is
of too much Importance for the
reader to overlook. And just as
advertising is the way of the
progressive store, so is the read
ing of advertising the way of the
progressive person. Measure
your progressiveness by this
standard, and you will not go far
wrong. Bend Bulletin.

BUSY BUILDING SEASON.

The prospects are very bright
for a particularly busy building
season in Burns. Considerable
talk is being made along this line
andt his city may have a very de-
cided permanent change before
the year is ended.
The Odd Fellows expect soon
to be in a position to start on the
stone lodge rooms and business
building to be erected on their
property on Main street. This
will be two stories and possibly
three. The Masonic lodge has in
contemplation a magnificent
building which may be erected
this year.
Emmett Reed will erect a stone
business building 50x65 feet one
story and other property owners
in the same block are seriously
considering the proposition of
making the entire block stone or
brick. Geo. Young owns one
corner and Chas. Bedell's "Capi-
tol'' is on the other. This is one
of the most desirable business
blocks in Burns and should it be
made up entirely of stone and

The first day of the congress
will be exclusively devoted to
the railroad program. The sec
ond day, Saturday, will have a
local interest for Idaho and East
ern Oregon in that it will empha-
size the Malheur Government Ir-
rigation Project. The principal
towns of Malheur county, Ore
gon, and several towns of Can
yon county, Idaho are situated in
the heart of this immense pro-
ject, which will water 200, 900
acres of the finest land in the
Snake river country, and which
has for several months been the
all-absorbing topic of interest in
this entire section. This project
is practically assured, and will
develop a stretch Of country as
rich in varied resources as any
developed portion of either state.
The recent discovery of unlim-
tiled quantities of gas at Ontario
has already made this town a
great center of interest through
out the Northwest. Discovery of
rich coal beds in the county are
also attracting much interest from
the outside world.
The inrush Of strangers frol
all parts of the country to this
town has created a great demand
for hotel Accommodations, but the
large delegation to the Oregon
Idaho congress will be taken care
of in the most thorough manner
by the town people. Homes will
be thrown open all over the town
and every arrangement has been
made to make visitors comforta-

time of this meeting, and il can

oRnooN.lDAHo DEVELOPMENT MEET
Congress At Ontario on March 26.77
-..0ood Program Outlined.

Ontario, Ore. March 8 1909.
The Times-Herald;
Extensive preparations are be-
ing made by the citizens of On
taric TO entertain tha delegates
to the coming sessi . of the Ore
gon-Idaho Development Congress
to be held here two days, March
26-27, An excellent program is
being planned, and the congress
promises to be one Of the biggest
and best meetings ever held in
this part Of the state.
The Oregon-ldaho congress,
which has for the past four
months been holding packed ses-
sions in various towns of the two
states, and which has wakened
universal interest in its move
ment for state built railroads, is
the organization which has for
its object, as the name implies,
the development Of the two
states in which ii is working,
This development is desired in
all lines, not only to encourage
commercial interest, but to aid
irrigation projects, to advance
the use of all natural resources
and TO unite the interest Of both
states in every way. But the
particular object which the con-
gress has in view at present is
the building of a railroad from
Coos Bay, Oregon, and thence
to Boise, Idaho. The plan ad-
vanced by the congress for the
building of this road is the plan
recently approved by the legisla-
ture of Oregon and Idaho, to is
sue bonds on the credit of the
people, by forming railroad dis
tricts, similar to the well known
irrigation districts, and issring
the bonds on the credit of the
districts or of counties through
which the railroads will pass.
This plan has received the re-
commentator and enthusiastic
approval of the most prominent
men in both Oregon and Idaho.
Twenty of the leading citizens of
Portland went to Salem during
the session of the Oregon legis-
lature to urge the adoption of
laws enabling the people to put
this plan in operation. Governor
Chamberlain sent message to
the legislature urging adoption
of such laws. They were adopt
ed. Similarly in Idaho the meas
ure was supported by many lead
ing men of the state. and Cover
nor Brady urged the Legislature
to adopt it. 1t was adopted.
Now it is up to the people Of
the two states TO see that the
amendment to the constitutions,
recommended by their legislature
is adopted. The Oregon-Idaho
congress is doing everything pos
sible to aid in the realization of
this object. At the meeting in |
Ontario some of the most pro-
minent speakers in both states
will present the subject from |
various view points. Delegates
from Coos Bay will tell of the
wonderful undeveloped resources
