REBEKAH CONVENTION.

A district convention of the Re-

Prairie City and Burns compris-
ing District No. 81, will be held
in this city during fair week. 1t
has not been definitely settled as
yet but Wednesday, Oct. 5, has
been suggested as the main day
of the session. These district
conventions are similar in char
acter to the grand lodge and are
most interesting and instructive.
All members of the order in good
standing are permitted to attend
the sessions and take part. Be-
sides the business sessions and
general instructions, we under
stand there are most enjoyable
features.
The president of the State AS
sembly will be present at this
convention and many delegates
are expected from Canyon and
Prairie. The members of Sylvia

forward with pleasant anticipa-
ton and are making elaborate
preparations to entertain these
guests in a true fraternal spirit.

Richard A. Ballinger in the ad-

of the interior, of which he is
secretary, and a declaration that
he should be no longer retained
in that Office, are contained in a
resolution adopted today by five
members of the congressional
committee, which has been inves-
tigating the Ballinger-Pinchot
controversy. These five, four
Democrats and one Republican,
assert that the vote is binding on
the committee as a whole. This,
however, is disputed by the other
three members of the committee
who were present today.

NEW LAND RULING.

A recent ruling of the Depart
ment of the Interior is of con-
siderable interest to this section.
1t provides that actual residence
on 800 acre homesteads is not
necessary, as cultivation and
production is the basis of good
faith and will be considered in
making proof. This is a matter
that effects quite an area in this
land district and many home
steaders are effected by it.
The Times-Herald has not gone
into it thoroughly but it seems
that all that is necessary is for
the climant to reside near enough
the land to supervise the work
for developing it and fulfilling
the requirements necessary to
make necessary proof of cultiva-
ton.

The attention of the writer ha

The attention of the writer has
been called to a letter written by
A, c. Clark, of Burton, Wash,
to the secretary of the Portland
Commercial Club in which he al
legss that would-be homeseekers
took their lives in their own
hands in coming to Harnev county
to settle. The assertion was
made, according to this letter.
that the stockmen threatened the
lives of homesteaders and that
COW punchers and range riders
harrassed homesteaders, etc, and
that several lives had already
paid the penalty of attempting to
homestead lands in this and ad-
joining counties. This is the
story of man (whose name is
not given) who had had actual
experience in Harvey county"
This is the rankest fabrication
and NEST foolish, No such con-
dition exists here and the man
making such an assertion is simp-
ly a knocker.
This letter would suggest a
state of lawlessness that is a blot
to any country and we deny it
most vigorously and would like
the name of the man who had
experience" The stockmen of
Harvey county are law abiding
citizens who encourage, rather
than harrass homeseekers. They
do not attempt to intimidate in
any instance. Homesteaders are
coming every day and are per-
mitted without hindrance to file
on any vacant land in the county
and during the q years the writ
er has lived here he does not
know of one instance of settler
losing his life for any such cause.

quested to make thorough in
