PLAN OF ACTION.
FATHER POINT, Que, July 80.
The Canadian police and secret
service agents gathered resolved
today upon a plan of action for the
deportation of Dr. H. H. Crippen
and Mile. Ethel Leneve. believed
to be on board the steamer Mont
rose, which is due at Montreal to-
morrow. The American dentist;
suspected of the murder of his
wife, Belle Elmore, formerly a
noted singer. with his young COM
panion will be sent back to Eng
land by the dominion government
as undesirable aliens
The Montrose will arrive at
Montreal either at midnight Satur-
day or early Sunday morning. DR..
Crippen and Mile. Leneve will be
arrested as soon as the ship
docks; will be rushed to Quebec
and then deported, thereby avoid
ing the legal entanglements at
tending eXtradition. The suspects
will then be placed aboard the
steamer Royal George, which sails
for England August A.
With the wireless dispatch to the
United Press yesterday came the
first news to the dominion author
tiles of the presence of Crippen
and the girl aboard the Montrose.
AS soon as the feeble spark from
the weak apparatus of the liner
carried the news to\ the world pO-
lice officials started for Father
Point
The little village of Father
Point is overcrowded today with
police officials and newspapermen
and throngs of persons curious to
learn the latest details of one Of
the most exciting pursuits ever re-
corded in the annals of Scotland
Yard. Hundreds of tourists are
here and nearly every person in
the cillage is armed with camera.
The general impression is that the
suspects will be taken ashore here,
although that is far from the inten-
ton of the police officials at pres

Herbert Boylen of Pilot Rock, is to
be the new secretary of the state
board of sheep commissioners having
been elected to that position as the
reorganization of the board in Port
land, Monday. The headquarters of
| the board viii continue to be in PEN
dleton.
Boylen was recently appointed a
member of the board to succeed Dan
p Smythe, whose term of office had
recently expired and the reorganiza-
tion of the board was thereby made
necessary. Boylen was chosen to fill
place he took on the board while
Charles Cleveland of Gresham was
made president of the board.
A. L. Mcintosh of Paulina. the other
member of the board, was present as
was also State Sheep Inspector Lytle.
The latter officer is an appointee OF
the board and holds over for another
year.
There was little business for the
Sheep Commission to transact" said
State Sheep Inspector Lytle. sheep
men are SO busy and so prosperous
that they haven't time to look for
trouble. The two and a half million
sheep owned in oregon came through
the winter and the lambing season in
splendid shape, the losses being but
very little more than normal. In the
southern part of the state few
bands which We're without feed, ex-
cept the browse of the range may
nave had 10 per cent loss.

of the Cascades and scabbies eradi-
Gated, with the exception of two bands,
wool selling at 20 cents pound on
an average and the market price of
mutton keeping pace with the advance
along other lines of food products.
the sheep owners of this state look
for great year in 1910. The only
scab left in the state is found in
flock of 1000 located in Harvey coun-
ty and another of similar size in NAL
heur county
Colorado pea feeders will call for
a large number of lambs this Fall
and 1t is probable that they will be
required to pay from SO to 81 per
head.

A Good Way to Use Hyomei.

Besides breathing through the in
haler few times a day. many ca
tarrh sufferers write that they find
inhaling Hyomei from a bowl Of
steaming water each night before re-
firing a great aid in curing stubborn
cases.
Try 1t; it's very simple; gives quick
relief and makes you breathe easier
Fill bowl half full of boiling wa
ter; pour into the water half tea
spoonful of Hyomei. cover head and
bowl with a towel and breathe
through nose and mouth the medicat-
ed antiseptic and healing vapor that
arises.
This method relieves that stuffiness
at once and makes your head feel
clear.
You can get a bottle of Hyomel at
druggists everywhere or at Tallman
& Co. for only SO cents. Ask for ex-
ira bottle Hyomei Inhalent.
But bear in mind II you want
Hyomei inhaler you must buy a COM
plete outfit which only costs 81.
But as stated before; If you already
own an inhaler a bottle of Hyomei
costs but so cents.
Hyomei Is guaranteed by druggists
everywhere and by Tallman e. Co. to
cure catarrh, sore throat, coughs,
colds, rose fever, asthma and Group or
money back. Try it on that generous
basis.

THE CALL OF THE MANLESS LAND"
Reports Received Show
Develop

Washington. D. c., April 13.-Re-
ports received by the reclamation
service at Washington from the en-
gineers on the several projects which
are supplying water to the newly re-
claimed desert lands, are exceedingly
gratifying. On most of the northern
projects, spring was ushered in early.
Fruit trees planted last season came
through the winter uninjured, alfalfa
made a good stand last year, and live
stock is looking fine The snowfall
was ample to give the ground good
wetting, so that spring planting is be-
ing done without irrigating. Every
where the farmers are putting in their
crops, or clearing new land for plant
ing The heavy snow on the noun
tains is guarantee of an ample wa
.+er supply for the coming season.
On the Shoshone project, in Wyo-
ming 255 families have taken up
homes since the opening in 1908. Sew
enteen families came in last month.
The new government town of Powell,
opened last May, now has dozen or
more business houses, including a
bank and real live newspaper. 1t is
rather startling to pick up this bright
eight-page sheet, all home print, and
read Of social teas, births, marriages
and other local affairs in a region
which less than two years ago was
only a sheep pasture, and not good
one at that. There are opportuni-
ties for 257 families to secure homes
on this project at this time.
On the Huntley project, Montana
there are now $40 farm families and
two thriving towns. In 1907, the
Crow Indians ranged their stock over
this area. The farmers here have
contracted to plant 1900 acres in su-
gar beets this year Two hundred
farms are still waiting for homeseek-
ers
From the Umatilla project, Oregon,
comes the report of peach trees in
bloom, gardens are green and flowers
are springing up about the new
homes. Land which had no sale there
In 1905, is selling for 5000 an acre
today Farms of ten to twenty acres
each are the rule so that practically
the farmers are all living in town.
The new town of Hermiston Is agitat-
ed over a municipal water supply.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1910-04-13

This project contains fifty good farms
open to settlement under the recla-
nation law.
On the Lower Yellowstone project,
Montana-North Dakota, a region that
was once the favorite haunt of the
holdup artist, there is promise of a
garden seventy miles long and a pop
ulation in villages, towns and in the
country of 10000 in the next two
years. The railroad now building
through the valley assures this.
On the Minidoka project. Idaho,
1000 farmers are at work getting
their lands ready for crops. In the
four growing towns the modern brick
and stone buildings are going up rap
idly. Contracts for electric power
from the government dam are being
made for light, heat and power. They
are even talking about trolley lines to
bring the farms and towns together.
In the not distant future every farm
on this project may be lighted and
heated by electricity.
