Of the return voyage.
Starting For Annootok.
Late in the evening of Sept 1 the
entire village Of Etah was taken
aboard. the anchor was tripped, and
soon the Bradley's bow put out on the
waters Of Smith sound for Annootok.
The night was cold and clear, bright
ened by the charm Of color. The sun
had just begun to dip under the north
ern horizon. which marks the end Of
the summer double days Of sptendos
and begins the period Of storms lead
ing into the long night. Early in the
morning we were of Annootok.
The weather was now changed. A.
strong wind came from the sea. With
shallow water. unknown rocks and
much ice drifting about no comfortable
berth could be found for the yacht. II
the overloaded decks were to be clear
ed at all it must be done quickly.
The launch and all the dories were
lowered and filled. Eskimo boats were
pressed into service and loaded. The
boats were towed ashore. Only a few
reached Annootok itself, for the wind
increased and a troublesome sea made
haste a matter Of great Importance.
Things were pitched ashore anywhere
on the rocks where a landing could be
found for the boats.
The splendid efficiency Of the launch
proved equal to the emergency, and in
the course Of about three hours all was
safely put on shore in spite of threat
ening winds and forbidding seas.

SALOON REGULATION
Pendleton Launches Third Party
Committee Appointed to Draft
Initiative Ordinance.

The third party is launched in
Pendleton. It's object is to take the
liquor fight out of the hands of liquor
men and prohibitionists and to see if a
system cannot be devised under which
law and order will be maintained.
the moral welfare of the city protect
ed and the city given some revenue
from the business that is carried on,
says the East Oregonian.
In hopes of bringing about such a
| condition an ordinance and Q charter
amendment will be drafted under the
initiative and submitted TO the people
at the coming city election. These
measures will provide for the close
regulation of the liquor business 10
event the business is ever legalized
again by the votes of the people of the
coonty.
At the mass meeting Saturday even
ing it was decided by motion that the
chairman, Mayor Murphy, name a
committee of five to draft such an or
dinanoe and such charter amend
ment and to provide for placing the
measures before the people at the com
ing election. Monday afternoon May
or Murphy designated as his commit

pie.
The speakers of the evening favored
the policy of a few rigidly regulated
saloons, paying high licenses in prefer
ence to the "bliDd pig" system. 1t
was the general trend of the;talk that
the numter of saloons should be lin
tied to one per thousand population,
that great care should be exercised in
the granting of licenses and that the
strictest care should be taken to insure
the decent opel alton of saloons should
they again be legalized.
That the third party" movement
is not entirely satisfactory to prohib-
itionists or to old time saloon men was
made apparent during the evening.
Judge. James A. Fee declared his be-
lief that up to this time the prohibit
tion law has not had fair trial. Tom
Means. who was formerly saloon.
man, protested against the attempt to
limit the number of saloons in a
town.

train, and when the conductor came
to gather tickets the woman produced
handful of small change. saying it
was all the money she had and asked
the conductor how far that sum would
carry Ler.
Conversation with the conductor
and the fact that the children were
hungrily eating dry bread caused pas
sengers to gather about the woman,
who said she was Mrs. II. Smith and
was working her way to Grand Juno
tion COL. to Join her mother, and
that her husband was killed in
Alberta by an outlaw horse falling on
him five weeks ago.
Wilbur +. Brook, newspaper man
OF Portland, addressed tho passengers
and repeated the story the woman had
reoited.

EVERY MAN

Exempt No One
From Burden
HIS ADDRESS At DENVER
Referred to Reclamation
and Conservation Only
incidentally.
Special to the New Mexican.

special 10 lue New MeAlCdu.
Denver, Colo, Sept. 22.-The
President made a few informal re-
marks in his address last evening on
reclamation, declaring it a pledge of
the administration to carry on that
work. The President then took up a
defense of the corporation tax against
the proposition to impose direct in
come tax The President strongly
urged that the states should adopt
the proposed amendment to the Con-
Stitution to make the income tax
possible in time of need. In urging
this, the President declared it would
be possible to amend the corporation
tax to include within its scope every
desired feature of the income tax ex-
cept levy upon the incomes from
salaries or professional services. The
President said he is opposed TO a di-
rect income tax except in cases of
emergency and believed it the fault of
the Constitution that there is no pro-
vision for such a tax in war time or
other time of emergency. The Presi-
dent based his argument in favor of
the corporation tax over a direct in
come tax on results of the income tax
in England He said the direct in
come tax in England at 10 per cent
did not produce as much as the pres
ent method of taxation at per cent
This he said illustrated the premium
placed on perjury and concealment
The President stated that every one
should levy something toward the
sustenance of the government He
said: Il am not disposed to deny that
theoretically it would be better tC
impose higher rate Of taxation upon
those having large fortunes than up
on those having only a competence
| am opposed to exempting incomes
above an actual living wage because |
think every one in the government
should pay something toward it's sus.
tenance because all derive benefit
from it, and while an increase in the
percentage of the tax as fortune in
creases is fair, it is fair because the
burden of taxation at the same rate is
heavier upon man with a small in
come than man with a large in
come"
In conclusion he said: ''It seems
that Congress has taken the wisest
course in adopting as much of the
income tax features as conforms to
the Constitution and by recommend
ing an amendment to the Constitution
which will enable it to round out
this vision of corporate wealth by
federal authority"

the lobby and one in the dining room
and in the kitchen where stoves and
ovens will be used, will be done by
steam which will be carried from a
heating plant located in another build
ing. The electric wiring will be care
fully encased so as to prevent any
possible ignition of woodwork or
other material. But aside from this
favorable condition, the building will
have four public entrances on the
ground floor and on the outside of
the building there will be three differ
ent fire stairs leading from the Veran-
das to the ground. There will also
be provided three stand pipes with
sufficient hose connection on each
floor. AS a further precaution against
fire an Clubhouse of non-combustible
material will be constructed contain
ing large fire plug with double hose
connections with all in readiness fol
immediate use.
l, H. and w. NJ. Rapp are the archi
tects while Lyons and Axtel are the
contractors in charge of the building
The new building has been made
necessary in order to give the or
phans in charge of the Sisters larger
quarters. At present a large portion
of the orphanage building is being
used for dining room for the guests
at the Sanitarium and as a result the
orphans have been handicapped by
being crowded. Eighty-siX orphans
are now in charge of the Sisters and
are being cared for and being pre-
pared for the future All of the or
phans are girls as boys are not taken
in. The Sisters have quite a large
task to feed and clothe such a large
number of children yet this is done
uncomplainingly. 1t is expected that
very shortly large number of or
phans will be added to those already
in charge. The Sisters take the or
phans from all parts of the Territory.
The completion of the new Sanitari-
UNI will enable the Sisters to use the
