statement by Judge Blair.

Copyright 1910, by the United Press
Association.)
1t has been stated that haXe had
personal knowledge for many years
of the traffic in votes that has pre-
vailed in Adams and other counties in
my judicial district, and this is quite
true. have had both the personal
knowledge and the positive proof of
this practice in my district for long
time.
In the fall of 1906, I registered a
vow that / would put an end to vote
buying in Adams county the very first
opportunity, and this is the first op-
portunity | have had to carry out my
resolve
The bartar in votes has, believe,
prevailed to a considerable extent in
about eight other southern Ohio coun-
ties for the past 80 years. Two years
ago, during the local option campaign,
l learned of money being used in Sci
otto county by the ''wets" and /
promptly called a special grand jury
and had indictments returned that
stopped the vote buying in that cam
paign and l believe prevented the use
of money to any great extent in cleo
tions following in that county.
In the present investigation, 1 will
say that the people of Adams county,
including the politicians of both par
ties; have importuned both Judge Ed
win Corn of the common pleas court
and myself to break up the practice
| of having to raise big corruption funds
every year
Judge Corn was not acquainted
with the inside workings of the game
as played in Adams and / was For
that reason. /, instead of Judge Corn,
came here to begin the inquisition.
From results already obtained, there
can be no more vote selling in old
Adams, The good influence Of this
probe will permeate the body polite
of the entire state. l believe that this
strong wave of protest against the
practice Of corrupting elections will
swell to such proportions that it will
overflow the boundaries of the state
and affect every state in the union.
We have made the start at the root
of the evil.
We hear of city councils selling out
franchises, and state legislatures give
the United States senatorship to the
highest bidder, and men have been

MANY INDIANS At
new YEARS DINNER

Nearly 800 Indians participated in
the big New Years dinner at the Tu-
.tuilla mission on the Umatilla reser-
vation at noon today. About 200 of
these are now encamped at the mis-
sion, participating in the annual mid
winter campmeeting, while the others
came from their homes on the reser-
walton, especially for the big dinner
which had been advertised as free to
all.
Three young steers and $50 worth
of pies and cakes, besides large guam
titles of fish and berries were con-
sumed by the representatives of the
northwest tribes. After all had eaten
until they could hold no more. baskets
and sacks were filled with the 'leav-
ings" which were taken home to pro-
vide feasts in many a tepee for sever
al days to come.
Through the courtesy of Major
Swartzlander the Indian children who
attend the government school at the
agency were permitted to remain at
the camp one day longer in order that
they too. could enjoy the big dinner.
Missionary Cornelison says the
meetings have been very successful
and that several additions have been
made to each of the different church
organizations.
Among these recent prominent ar
rivals at the meetings are the follow
ing:

Omaha, Jan. S.-In response to a
demand from western governors, i'm
migration officials and commercial
associations for an association which
shall devote it's energies to turning the
tide of immigration into the west,
call Is being sent out from Omaha
this week for a meeting to be held In
that city between January Is and
% for the purpose Of organizing the
Western Development association. As
the melting is called on the advice or
some powerful state and private in
terests, the organization promises to
become potential in stopping the tide
of people going from the Mississippi
valleys into Canada.
Nebraska, Colorado, Wyoming,
Utah, Idaho. Montana, Washington,
Oregon, Nevada, California and South
Dakota are the states taking the lead
in attempting to see that the new pio-
neers are turned from the south and
from the Canadian northwest into the
most fertile and promising part Of the
United States.
The organization of such an asso-
citation for the purpose of devoting
the next few years to the gigantic
task of turning the tread of men and
women toward the distinctively west
ern states was proposed by the pub
fishers of the Omaha Daily Bee and
the Goth Century Farmer, which pa
pers organized the western land pro-
ducts exhibit with such an end in
view. The publishers con-
suited western governors, heads Of
commercial organizations, and rail-
road men. That their idea is popular
and will result in more or less per-
manent association is shown by the
following replies received to the in
quiry as to whether there was a de-
mand for such an organization:
Jas. J. Hill, chairman of the board
of directors of the Great Northern
railway: such an association could
do a great deal of good if the work
could be intelligently handled"
]. H. Hall, commissioner of agri-
culture of Montana: "The move 10
one in the right direction and an or
ganization ought to be formed for that
purpose"
Jos. P. Fallon, commissioner of i'm
migration of idaho: 81 believe such
an association would do a great deal
of good for the western states and
will lend any aid in my power
Governor ]. H. Brady of Idaho:
I'VE are interested in the movement
you suggest so do not hesitate to call
on me for anything I can do"
Col. W. E. Skinner president
Denver & Laramie R. r.: THE for
nation of an association loking di-
rectly to western development would
be highly advantageous. We feel very
grateful to you for the suggestion,
and know everyone Will"
E. L. Lomax, passenger traffic
manager Western Pacific r. r.. I'VE
realize the practical results that can
be accomplished by the proposed or
ganiZation and we think we can as
sure you of a hearty welcome from
the states of Nevada, Utah and Cali
fornia, and particularly from the
Western Pacific R r., which ira

MINER DISCOVERS RICH
QUARTZ AND GOES INSANE

San Bernardino, Cal, Jan. g.
Prospectors today are preparing to
make an attempt to find an unknown
ledge of rich quartz, presumably dis
covered by Mojave Bill negro,
whose real name is Joseph Smith,
who was brought in from the desert
last night, raving mad, his pockets
stuffed with rich quartz. He left
here two months ago on prospect
ing trip. He was found half dead

East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1911-01-03

From the foregoing it will be seen
that with the exception of June and
December each month of this year
surpassed the corresponding month
for last year. In the opinion of Mr..
Rees the business for June and De-
cember last year was swelled by an
abnormal sale of special request en-
velopes.
The quarterly reports show that
each quarter for 1910 witnessed gain
over the corresponding quarter for
1909. The total business for the
quarter that closed December 81
amounted to s64S7.99. whereas the
total for that quarter one year ago
amounted to but s6339.12.
The business at the local office dur
ing 1909 showed approximately the
same increase over 1908 as the 1910
business over that of last year

SHOWS
GAIN FOR YEAR

The business of the Pendleton post
office for the year just closed shows
a gain of slightly more than seven
per cent over the business of the pre-
ceding year. During 1909 the total
receipts at the office amounted to s2e,-
57436 while during the year 1910 a
total of s22,O56.39 was collected a.
the Pendleton office.
AS shown by the report just COM
piled by Assistant Postmaster Harry
Rees, the receipts by months for the
two years were as follows:
