that under normal business conditions
the railroads are unequal to the work
demanded of them, that traffic is in,
creasing with amazing rapidity and
that the capacity Of the railroads is
taxed to handle business that can
not or will not use other routes.

on the contrary, are ardent advocates

"The Travelling salesman"

Those who witnessed 'The Travel
ing Salesman at the oregon last
night were fortunate. for they were
treated to something new in the line
of footlight entertainment. Mr.
Forbes latest production is worthy
of the author of 1.-The Chorus Lady"
in depicting a life of which the world
only sees the surface and therefore
misjudges. The humor was of the
droll variety and was received by the
audience with manifest appreciation.
Special mention must be made of the
second act, which showed the knights
OF the grip off duty wherein poker
game was employed to break the mo-
notony of homeless existence. 1t
was a most typical and characters
tic scene, and while it amused 1t af-
forded at the same time an insight
into a life that is deserving of more
sympathy and less abuse than is usu-
ally accorded it.
The plot was nothing original but
was well cared for, and the audience
was satisfied when the fat and genial
Bob Blake phoned for lone minister
and two Witnesses thereby thwart-
ing the roguery of the arch knaves
and eliminating a love-at-first-sight
romance.

KAISER THE RICHEST
LANDLORD IN CAPITAL

Berlin--It is not generally known
that the kaiser is the wealthiest house
proprietor in the German capital. The
value Of the houses and ground be-
longing to him in Berlin is about $6,-
100000.
This amount does not include the
value Of the royal residences and pal
aces. More than thirty-four large
dwelling houses are owned by the
emperor The tenants. however, do
not know that the emperor IS their
landlord and pay Their rent through
the medium Of an agent, and he in
his turn to a firm Of lawyers, who
keep the name OF their r)yal client
secret.
It cannot be said that tho 'ise" Is
a len'ent landlord for all the transact
tions are strictly adhered TO, and
tenants who do not pay their rsrt are
evicted like those Of an ordinary
landlord.

LOCAL MAN ACTS AS
LEADER OF HOSTS
JAMES KYLE CONDUCTAS
DAKOTANS TO STANFTELD
Leads Homeseekers from Snow
Bound North Into Western Land of
Promise-Party All Purchase in
Umatilla's Newest Town.

James Kyle. formerly the Pendle-
ton agent of the Furnish-Coe COM
pany, but who has been doing mis-
sionary work throughout the middle
west for the past few months, spent
yesterday in Pendleton, leaving this
morning for Stanfield. He has been
in the Dakotas and Minnesota since
June 20 and arrived at Stanfield Fri
day morning with car load of home
seekers. He returns TO Dakota the
last OF the week and VIII return with
another car load the first of January
Kyle says that he and his party
around by way of Seattle and Port
land they were in snow continuously
until they reached Umatilla county.
Every member of the party was
therefore delighted with the appear
ance of the Stanfield country and all
who had not already purchased land
did so after their arrival or remained
to make Stanfield their home.
Leaving Fargo while bl zzard was
raging and having experienced 80 be-
low zero weather during the preced-
ing week it was only natural that
they would be we'll satisfied with
Umatilla county's comparatively mild
weather.
Mr.. Kyle says the trip which he has
Just taken has been relevation to
him and he insists that the people of
this section of the west do not real
ize the great opportunities and advan-
tages which are ours. After spend
ing several months in a country where
the people are compelled to hole up
for several months of the year and
then fairly work their heads off dur
ing the remainder Of the year to Sc
cure crops which then cannot COM
pare with those produced in this
country. he is more than ever m
pressed with the extent of his good
fortune in being located in oregon.
He also sees a great future for this
country in the way of development
for he declares that many of the resi-
dents of the middle western states are
looking for homes in milder climate!
and nearly all eyes are turned on the
far west.

OREGON NOT IN FAVOR
OF RUGBY FOOTBALL

Seattle.-A special to the Univer-
sity of Washington Daily from Eu
gene, Oregon, says:
The agitation in favor of Rugby as
substitute for the intercollegiate
game is meeting nothing but the Sc
verest disapproval in university c.r-
cles here The students are strong
in their condemnation of the action
of the Whitman and Agricultural
college faculties in supporting the
English game and it is evident that
if the quest on was left to the under
graduates the game of Rugby would
never be established in the north
west.
Bill Hayward, Oregon's great train
er, said:
"Our game is no rougher than the
Rugby game, and the California au-
thorlties have found this out during
the past few years. / know of sew
oral instances where men have been

BIGGER NAVY FOR FRANCE
Elaborate Naval Plans to be Submit
ted to Parliament i'm January.

Paris.-The new naval programme
to be submitted to the Chamber of
Deputies in January proposes two
Dreadnaughts. to be laid down at
Brest and LOrient during 1910; two
more in 1911 and two in 1912. The
disposition of the turrets of these YES
sells will differ from either the Ameri-
can or British navies.
Each turret will contain two 3O5
millimeter guns. Four turrets will
be placed along the longitudinal axis
of the ship two forward and two aft,
the two nearest the center of the ship
being elevated so that the guns in
them can be fired over the other tur-
rets.
Fifth and sixth turrets will be
placed amidships, one on each side
They will be of the same diameter and
on the same level, thus limiting the
fire of their guns to their own sides
The secondary battery will consist
of eighteen pieces at 1873 millimeters
The vessels will have a speed OF
twenty knots. Special efforts are tc
be made to avoid delay in construc'
ton. 1t is not hoped to equal Eng
lands rate of twenty-four months Of
building a 2O-OO0-ton ship on Ger
many's thirty months, but everything
possible will be done not to exceed
thirty-six months.
If this building rate is observed
France counts on having by 191;
nineteen armor-clads, of which
! twelve will be Dreadnaughts. Thu
cost of the new vessels is now esti
mated at 74,OOO,OOO frances, or $14,

REAR ADMIRAL GOODRICH
 MAY NOT RETIRE

WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 7.- Though Rear Admiral Caspar r. Goodrich reached the age limit for active service today he will probably continue for some time as command ant of the New York navy yard where he succeeded the late Rear Ad- miral Coghlan year ago. Secretary of the Navy Newberry has requested Rear Admiral Goodrich to remain at the navy yard long enough to com plete the scheme of consolidation of the departments at the yard which is being worked out according to the admiral's own plans.
 Rear Admiral Goodrich is one of the best known officers in the navy
 He has the distinction of being the officer who directed the last naval engagement in the war with Spain, the fight at Manzanillo, Cuba. de also commanded the expedition which first drew the fire of the batteries at Santiago. On that occasion he was in charge of the work of cutting the cable connections with the besieged city.
 Rear Admiral Goodrich was ap- pointed to the Naval Academy from Connecticut and was graduated as the first honor man of the class or '64. From 1865 he was attached to the steam frigate, Colorado, at that time the flagship of the European
 Squadron. During the Tel-el-Kebir expedition he was the American na- val attaehe on the stan of Viscount Wolseley
 He was commanding the Pacific fleet at the time of the San Francisco earthquake and received his first news of the disaster and the awful results that followed when of the coast of Southern California, nearly 800 miles away. The intimation of the horror came in an extraordinary manner. A wireless telegraph oper- ator caught a stray message sent out at random from a shore station just north of San Francisco. Not hesitat- ing for a moment, and without any veriication of the message Rear Ad- miral >Gopdrich, with characteristic decision. turned his ships toward San Francisco at full speed His worst fears were realized on arrival, and he was able to render notable services in the period that followed the catastrophe.
Bisbee daily review., 1909-01-08

Egleston of New York city, said 1t is question of interest how this gold got into the sands. He says the most probable answer seems. at first sight. to be that it came from the abrasion of the rocks; but this suggests the further question, why is the gold so much finer than gold sands ord narily gre? But this query goes unanswered.
 The authorities are agreed that the quality of Snake river gold is high and when properly cleaned hints for $19.35 per ounce. The colors are not only fine, running from 1000 to 2,000 to the cent in value. but they are also flakey in shape and when subjected to microscopic examination many of the colors show rounded edges and a concaye or cup-shaped depression Tn 1 their flat surface. and quite a pro portion of them are coated with a sugary incrustation of silica or some other substance which seriously inter feres with their amalgamation with mercury.

JOURNALISTIC ENTER PRISE.

The New York Herald, which Is rec ognized as standing at the head of the list throughout the world as a news gatherer. has just given an ex- hibition of journalistic enterprise m connection with the great horror in Italy, which excels anything in that line that has been attempted by any newspaper in many years if. indeed, it has ever been eolalcd.
 As soon as the extent and magni- tude of the great ca,aelysm was fore shadowed by the news dispatches, the Herald made arrangements for an elaborate article on the subject by M Flammarion, the distinguished French seismologist, who has made a special ty of such matters as that which is now attracting the attention of man kind, and who is regarded by scholars everywhere as the worlds best au- thority in this branch of natural science. Tn earticte was very com prehensive, went into a thorough re view of the whole subject and fills more than full page of the paper. in fine type. This vas transmitted in the original French. from Paris to New York by Atlantic cable. then translated into English and italian. and printed in the Herald in the three languages.

END OF THE YAQUi WAR.


 vAoUi WAR.
 The Yaqui war Is at an end and most probably for sood. The Yaquis made a final inning when they signed the peace treaty yesterday as 1t was understood they would do. By this treaty which is probably the last that will ever be made between the two governments, or rather between the Mexican government and the leader of the Yaqui in6'ans permanent peace is established.
 Americans, as rdle, have not and do not understand the real meaning of the Yaqui war. Originally these people sought an imrossibility-an in- dependent government This. of course. could not be granted without first beating the Mexican government to its knees.
 It must not be forgotten that these Yaquis are not wild Indians, within the meaning of the word. In addition to their own language, they speak Spanish, all their business being car ried on in that language. They are better Roman Catholics than the av- craze Mexican; they dress as Mexi- cans and in their manner of living there is no difference between them and the common people of the coun- try. Taken as a whcle, they as work CTS. are the bone and sinew of So- nora. With fair treatment they make splendid soldiers and good citizens.
 Neither must 1t be forgotten that these people have never been sub dued They successfully resisted Spanish aggression and supremacy and the republic of Mexico can obtain peace only by doiug what is fair and right In adopting drastic measures the Mexican government expatriated them by the ship load to the state Of Yueatan, and now, as a condition of peace, these people arc to be returned to their homes and friends. The war had a promise of euding a year ago and but for the exactions of the gov ernment many lives would have been saved and in the erd concessions had to be made that were then demanded and denied
 The Yaquis are still powerful peo- pie and can, if needs be, muster a force of ten thousand fighting men. At this time they are widely scattered all over the Pacific coast states. and wherever employed are known as hard and willing workers. Although robbed of much of their land on the Yaquis river, their ancestral home for probably thousand years, the gov ernment has agreed to a partial resto- ration, even conceding that certain of them shall be alloy ed to retain their arms.
 The Yaquis are rot a murderously inclined people as much of the Mexi, can press would nave us believe, and many Ci the highway robberies. mid. night burnings and assassinations were committed b. other than the much dreaded Yaqui. But the war is now over. Concessions have been won from the Mexican government and with the country at veace Sonora, the most northeast sta,e in the republic Of Mexico. will boom in business of every Yind
