sweeping decision handed down today.
in which he denied the petition of the
state board of health for a writ of man
date excluding from the public schools
Of Watsonyille all scholars not, vacci-
mated in compliance with the State law,
Judge Lucas +. Smith declared the law
unconstitutional He held that the
statute was contrary to the constitution
because it exempted from its provisions
all children attending private schools,
together with all persons not attending
any school. and for that reason it was
class legislation.
"Such discriminating laws says
Judge Smith, "have been held to be

The true artist or amateur of art

any real beauty (outside of limited
number) in the thousands of sO-calle4

BOISE & WESTERN RAILROAD.

Application for right of way
over government lands from tho
eastern part of the state up tn,
Malheur river was filed in the
local land office last week by
the Boise & Western Railroad
Co.
This is the company of which
Col. C. f.. S. Wood and VIM.
Hanley have been the active
head and who have had consider.
able work done. 1t seems the
maps and surveys have been com.
pleted up to the east line of this
county, but further filings will be
made soon on into this valley.
Those interested have been using
considerable scrip and secured
some valuable holdings at points
along the line where there will
likely be conflict with the Harri-
man line of survey.
Although it has been persist
emily rumored that the Hartman
people have let a contract to
Juntura so miles west of Vale
and within a short distance of
Harvey valley, facts do not bear
out the statement. The Harri-
man people have not yet secured
right of way over the private
holdings along the route therefore
it is absurd to assert that con-
tracts have been let. The Times
Herald hopes to learn of negotia-
tons for right of way through
private holdings up the Malheur
soon, then it will be time to let

IMPROVED METHOD.

The Klamath Herald says this
week the death knell of the sage
brush of Klamath County, or at
least that part of it that flourish
es under the irrigating bitches of
the klamath project, was sound
ed, and the time is not far dis
tant when not an acre of irriga-
ted land will be afflicted with
this pest. w. w. Masten has
Just closed a contract for the
purchase of a 16-foot combined
Host harvester and one 40-horse
power catapiller engine, and it is
with this outfit that he proposes
to change the face of Klamath
country during the next few
years. When he has demonstrat-
ed that his method of handling
the soil is the correct one, he
will doubtless have a number of
followers, with the result that
the area cultivated will be rapid
ly increased until all of the irri-
gated, and a great deal of the
unirrigated, farms of the coun-
try will be raising crops.
The outfit purchased by Mr..
Masten is one of the most up-to-
date in the West. 1t is capable
of cutting the sage brush, plow-
ing the ground, sowing the seed
and harvesting the crop. The
engine has a speed of five miles |
per hour on the road and with |
its attachments is capable of
plowing a strip fourteen feet
wide.

SETTLERS COMING

Those coming from the railroad
state that there is much inquiry
for Grant county lands and that
there will be a great rush here in
the spring. Evidence of this
fact is even at this early date
seen by the travel which is COM
ing into the country. Nearly
every day strangers arrive.
Many of them go on into Harvey
county. Eight and ten passen-
gers on the stage is a usual situ-
alton and it is predicted that
when spring opens up there will
have to be devised means of
transportation to handle the peo-
pie who will settle in this section
of the state. Blue Mt. Eagle.

That quarter section of land
would not support a rabbit, "
says the old-timer to the pros
pective locator. A few years
transpire and the locator has a
better ranch than the old-timer,
The land would not support a
rabbit if farmed along the lines
employed by the old-timer who
has dropped so far back in the
procession of progression that he
does not realize that there has
been as much progress made in
the science of the soil as there
has been in the application Of
electricity to the mechanical arts.
The soil must sustain man and
his necessities will force the
scientific application of principles
that will make the desert bios
som as the rose. Blue Mt. Eagle.

OIL & GAS COMPANY FORMED.

Local capitalists have formed
"a company to develop the oil and
gas prospects in the vicinity of
the lakes. The parties forming
this new company have means to
do the work and will likely begin
operations at once since they
have the necessary machinery
and some of the best land down
there. They do not intend to
capitalize for big sum and ask
others to subscribe to stock, as

The deep snow in the farming
districts of this county has fur
nished protection to fall sown
grain and although the long Win
ter has been hard on stock, it
portends an exceptional season.
Should the breakup come early,
as predicted by many, we NAV
all yet be happy.

THE FIRST NATIONAL BANK.

! The stockholders of the First
National Bank of this city held
their annual meeting at their
banking house on January Goth.
I George A. Smyth, County Com
missioner and stockman of Dia-
mond, Oregon. was added to the
Directorate, Following the
stockholders meeting the Board
of Directors elected the following
officers; John d. DAILY, President:
&c. A. Haines, Vice President;
IJ. l.. Gault, Cashier: A. c.
Welcome, Assistant Cashier.
The business of the bank was
given a careful examination and
found in a very satisfactory
condition.
Pursuing their policy of the
past in increasing the financial
strength of the bank, the direct
ors voted to increase the surplus
from $30,000.00 to $35, 10000,
which surplus in conjunction
with the banks capital, $25, 600,
gives the bank a combined capi-
tai and surplus, or working capi-
tai, of $50, 10000. In this con-
nection it is worthy of note that
the First National Bank of Burns
is one of twelve National Banks
in Oregon that has a surplus
equal to or greater than their
capital.
The comptroller of the currency
has just issued an official call for
report of condition of all the |
National Banks for January
3lst. The detailed report of this
bank which appears in another
column of this issue shows this
solid institution to be in excellent
shape, its deposits being $685.
