Rain Falls in Mountains.

A shower of rain and hail was JOY
fully experienced along the Blue
Mountains last night. according to
reports reaching this city this morn
ing. The storm seems to have been
general so far as the summit of the
mountains was concerned, but outside
of the mountains no rain has been
reported. While the shower was re-
freshing and succeeded in clearing the
atmosphere in this vicinity, it is not
believed that it was heavy enough to
help the range or quench the forest
fires.

DWELLING HOUSES
ARE At PREMIUM

Dwelling houses in Pendleton are
very scare article and the demand
at present is far in excess or the sup
ply. In fact at least one man has de-
clared that if he is not able to find
suitable house within a few DAYS
that he will give up his position here
and go to Walla Walla, where he
can find house.
There are plenty of houses. so-call-
ed, but they are mere "shacks," with
out any of the modern furnishings or
conveniences and for that reason are
not desirable. Few people in this day
and age are willing to live in houses
that are not supplied with electric
lights or bath room and houses with
out these things are the only ones
obtainable
Modern houses, either small or large
can be rented almost at a moments
notice and the day for the opening of
school is yet few weeks distant. Ap-
parently the demand for houses is to
be greater this fall than ever before.

1t seems that Murray was decidedly

The trustees have been so well pleased
with his work that they have offered
to increase his salary by 5000 If he
will return and it is probable that no
change will be made in the pastorate
of the local church by the Bishop.

! into law. In substance their effect
would be to free these great special
interests from all effective control.
| The passage Of such bill would be
victory of the special interests over
| the general welfare. and a long back
ward step down the hill of progress
we have of late been climbing.
Our people have ror many years
proceeded upon the assumption that
the nation should control the public
land. It is to this assumption Of ma
! tional outlook that we owe our wisest
land legislation from the homestead
| law to the irrigation law. The wise
use Of our public domain has always
been conditioned upon national ac-
ton. The states can greatly help, but
! the nation must take the lead. as re-
CARDS the forests and waters; and
perhaps peculiarly in the case Of the
waters, because almost all streams are
really Interstate streams.
Coal Lands.
The same principle applies with pc
cuiar force to the coal lands. and es-
pecially to the coal lands in Alaska.
whose protection and ownership by
the federal government is so neces-
sary, both for full and free Individual
development in the west, and for the
needs Of our fleet in the Pacific. The
coal mines should be leased, not sold
and those who mine the coal should
pay back a part Of the profit to the
people It is the right and duty Of
the people to demand the most vigil
ant trusteeship on that part Of that
branch Of the federni government in
charge Of the fuel resources Of the
United States.
The Neutral Ground.
Remember also that many of the
men who protest loudly against ef-
fective national action would be the
first to turn round and protest against
state action If such action in its turn
became effective, and would then un-
hesitatlngly invoke the law to show
that the state had no constitutional
power to act. Long experience has
shown that 1t is by no means impos-

want to make my acknowledgements
in particular to the Colorado Forestry
association, which has supported the
forest work of the government with
such unselfish zeal. The forest service
has enemies because it is effective
Some of it's best work has been met
with the bittered opposition. Fol
example, it has done real service by
blocking the road against the grab
bers of water power, and again by
standing like a rock against the de-
mands of bogus mining concerns to
exploit the national forests. I have
always done my best to help the gen.
uine miner. I believe that one OF the
first duties of the government is to
encourage honest mining on the pub
lie lands But it is equally import
ant to enforce the law firmly against
that particularly dangerous class
which makes its living off the public
through fraudulent mining schemes.
Much of the opposition to the for
est service, like much of the op-
position to conservation, takes the
form of direct misrepresentation. For
example, the cry is often heard that
the national forests inclose great
areas of agricultural land which are
thus put beyond the reach of settle
ment. The statement seems plausible
only till he facts are known. In the
first pla Congress has specially
provided that whatever agricultural
land there may be in any national
forest shall be open, under proper
safeguards, to homestead settlement.
And in the second place, when the
opponents of conservation are asked
TO point out the great stretches of in
closed agricultural land on the
ground and in the presence of experts,

Without the elephant what would
be the circus? 1t would be as the julip
without the mint; as beans without the
pork; as the theatre without stage"
These are the metaphors expressed
by Bin Emory, boss elephant man
with Ringing Brothers circus. Bill is
the real thing in elephant trainers. He
has mixed up with the big fellows for
over sixteen years, he is fond of them
and they love him in their elephantine
way Once in while one of them
grows peevish and might make a
great deal of trouble If he did not
know just what to do. So ~
"You remember the story they used
to tell in McGuffy's Fourth Reader"
says Emory, about the bad boy who
gave the elephant the lighted cigar,
and how eight years later the elephant
met the boy, now man, and gave him
a deserved drubbing.
"All tommyrot, Beautiful sentiment
but nature fake. An elephant remem-
bers a single keeper. but when all is
said and done, his grey matter wouldn't
fill pint cup. That's a, fact.
