REBEL FORCES ARE PUZZLED
BY MOVEMENT OF FEDERALS

At Rebel Front, Bachimba, July L.
What appears to have been a ruse on
the part of federals puzzled the rebel
leaders for a time today. Instead of
advancing from Ortiz, where the big
bridge was completed, the federal col
u,nns adopted a different course, NOV
ing troop trains back and forth as if
experiencing difficulty in bringing their
artillery ahead.
The rebels here are patiently await
ing the attack. General Fernandez,
with 400 men. has been sent out of
Bachimba and may encounter the fed
eral %outposts, numbering about 800, at
any moment.

CROP OUTLOOK NEVER BETTER.

With more rainfall during this
week the crop outlook for Har-
ney county has been increased.
1t has been n most favorable
season throughout and wi h
these late rains followed by warm
weather the crops are growing
in such n manner that every far
mer feels like a bond holder and
his greatest concern now seems
to be what he will do with his
big crop. This question need
not cause any uneasiness, how
ever, as we have never yet had
an over production and with the
railroad building in and the in
flux of new people there will be
a market for everything raised.
The abundant moisture has al
so made the range the best it has
been for many years and since a
large percentage of stock has
been sold and driven out those
who do have stock on the range
will receive the benefit. The
cattle and wool market are good
and everything points to a very
year for this section.

NO MORE SMALLPOX.

The few cases of small pox
that were developed in Burns
were so completely isolated and
special care taken that no new
cases have developed and this
city is now entirely free from
the disease. 1t has caused some
uneasiness upon the part of some
but there is no longer any dan
ger. The reports that have gone
ou. respecting the disease has
hurt Burns TO some extent in a
business way, as it was greatly
exaggerated. There have been
but few cases, yet the knocker
has caused the general public to
think a terrible epidemic has
been raging, while as a matter of
fact those who were afflicted had
only mild cases.

understood when any progressive
movements are undertaken for
the benefit and amusement of
our citizens, and instruction and
inspiration for the children, it is
wrong to put a damper on it,
either before, or after it is over;

otherwise-they don't deserve
it. These undertakings are given

ways two views to be taken into

ROADS AND BRIDGES BAD.

Parties who have recently
come in from Bend report the
roads are badly dug out in places
by the heavy auto trucks and
many of the bridges are in bad
shape from the heavy loads being
hauled over them. This is mat
ter that should have immediate
attention from the authorities as
this is one of the most important
thoroughfares in Eastern Oregon
If the bridges are not strong
enough to bear up the heavy
traffic they should be made bet
ter. 1t is time that we take into
consideration the heaviest loads
and prepare our roads and bridges
for such. 1t seems the trucks
are responsible for the bad roads
between here and Bend. great
holes being scooped out in places
and never filled again. This no
doubt was during the wet season
and caused by getting stuck in
the mud.

aim of the Oregon Agricultural

trade, and all the vast multitude
Of agriculture and professional
activities which fill the larders

each year from the college gates

are girded with a knowledge

their towns and cities the best
in the state, and their state the
greatest in the nation"

siders his holdings at a valuation
in the neighborhood of $25, 900

to be pitied than censured, for
they lack the greatest gift that
