Denies There Is Congestion.

c. p. King, president Of the Washing
ton Railway and Electric Company, be-
gan his protest by reading a statement
from the owner of large tract Of land
abutting Benning road along that portion
to be widened, in which that owner said
he had watched the traffic along the
street a great deal and saw no conges-
ton.
There are SO many improvements that
are needed in the District, Mr.. King con-
tinued, that he saw no reason for carry
ing out this project along a street where
there is little prospect Of development.
How much would this cost your COM
pany?" Maj Judson as <ed Mr.. King.
About $4,000" he replied.
"You increased your dividends yester-
day, didn't you?" Maj. Judson continued.
'I don't think we need go into that,
Senator Gallinger remarked.
I'VE would be glad to pay it If We
thought the project was necessary" Mr..
King answered.
Senator Gallinger showed an interest
in the increase in the dividend rate min
ute later, and he learned that the divi-
dend rate on common stock was increased
from n to 1 per cent per quarter.
THAT doesn't indicate great wealth.,
Mr.. Gallinger remarked. ~

At THE OREGON THEATRE

Rarely has a dramatist succeeded
in bringing the breezy western line
of the early eighties to the stage as
has Edwin Milton Royle in THE
Squaw Man. which will be present
ed at the Oregon April 80. The the
ater-goer of the present day-be he
a resident of the east or west, has but
faint conception of the insult attach
ed to the appellation "squaw man."
To call a white man that, out west is
as deadly an affront as to design
cowpuncher "shepherder' or a rus
tler"-it means fight. Yet, were T..
not for the 'squaw man" western
civilization would not have reached
the high plane it now occupies Run
ming over the list of great plainsmen,
it will be found that Kit Carson
"Trapper Baker, Jack Hardy. jim
Stillwell, Col. Parker and other men
whose names are indelibly engraved
on the pages of the history of the
west, all took squaws as wives. Later
on the disgrace came, for the simple
reason that hundreds of white men,
worthless beyond description, married
| Indian women for the purpose of Sc
| curing six hundred and forty acres
of land, beef, flour and the regular
issues of annuity goods given by a
| philanthropic government. Visit any
of the great reservations today and
you viii find that the whites sur
rounding the tract have nothing
whatever. to do with "squaw man,
and the Indians treat him with abso-
lutte contempt One exception to this
rule, is a man on the Ute reserva.
tion, Henderson" by name, who
claims to be related to one of the
wealthiest families in America. He i!
about siXty-five years of age and ha.
lived with the Indians for over fort!
years. 1t was just about this time
that a brillian young society MAJ
dropped out of view in New York an,
has never been seen since. 1t is saiC
that Mr.. Royle gained his inspiration
for the story THE SQuaw Man" from
the story of Henderson.

MABEL Warner. S
FATHER ARRIVES
(Contiued from page -

repor; Of his death. He states that
he went straight to Minnesota when
he left here and spent two years ir
that state and North Dakota Then
he moved to Chippewa Falls where
ne lived until mis- removal six years
ago to his present home at Cadott.
Several times, he says, he wrote let
ters to his daughter, addressing them
to Weston but ALWAYS, he declares,
they were returned to him. Four
years ago he subscribed for the Spo-
kane Spokesman Review, according
to his story, and it was from an ac-
count in that paper of the third trial
Of Mabel Young Warner on a charge
of forgery that he learned of her
present wherea bouts and her long
fight in the courts for the estate of
his brother.
Never Signed Documents.
Not only does he declare that he
never signed documents purporting to
bear his signature, but asserts his be-
lief that the names of his sisters and
brothers as heirs-at-law to the estate
Of J. w. Young were used without au-
taken by a court, will probably con-
tain some interesting disclosures. Just
what line of action will be taken now
Mrs Warner will not say, but inti-
mates that the federal courts may
have jurisdiction.
Resemblance Is Striking.
The elder Young bears a striking
resemblance to his daughter and son
all three having the pronounced Ro-
man nose. which, aside from her keen
eyes, is the principal facial charac-
teristic of Mrs. Warner. His resem-
blance to his dead brother, j. w
Young, is aso marked.
The entire afternoon was spent yes
terday at the home of Mrs. Warner
415 Lilleth street, the two children
and the father enjoying the reunion
Here an East Oregonian representa-
tive found them and was given some
interesting sidelights INTO the famil!
history. The father did not discuss
/ the legal fight to any extent beyonc
denying the signatures purporting u
be his, but recalled many incidents o
his residence here. He declares N
assisted in the construction of th'
present city reservoir and helped
make the first survey of the leve'
along the river, for which latter worl
he says he has never yet been paid.
Watts Knew He Was Alive.
That DR.. F. ID. Watts and his wife
principal heirs under the accredited
will knew Mrs. Warmers father wa
not dead as late as the January trial
was charged again yesterday by Mrs
Warner. who declared that Watts re
vealed his knowledge to j. L. Caro-
at that time, Mr.. Young declares h
has never in his life seen Watts an
has never communicated with hin
and is at a loss to account for hi
knowledge. However. his daughte
has a theory of her own, namely, tina
he in some way secured a glimpse @
the letters sent to her and which wer
returned to her father without peln
delivered. She charges the Westo
postmaster with the responsibility i
the matter.
Mrs. Warner declares triumphant
that with the arrival of her fathel
she now has the upper hand and tina
her enemies might we'll quail befor
that hand.

Article from Clemson college
on TheEArmy Worm.

There is in this state and several
other states, an invasion of the fall
army worm on corn, grass and cot
ton. This caterpillar is about l to
Il inches long when grown. 1t is
quite different from the cotton cat
erpillar although many farmers
mistake one for the other. This in
sect which is now in this state is
not the cotton caterpiller which did
80 much injury to cotton last sum-
mer. but is the fall army worm
which is sometimes called the grass
worm.
The fall army worm is usually
present but in such small numbers
that they do no harm to the crops
but on the other hand eat the grass
in the fields. 1t is only when this
insect gets abundant that it does
harm by eating grass, corn, peas
and cotton. The weather conditions
this season have been unusually
favorable for its development. Most
farmers who have seen the work of
this insect realize that immediate
action is necessary for the control
of this pest.
Control Measures-The two poi
sons that have given the best salts
faction so far are powdered arse
nate of lead and Paris green. Paris
green can usually be bought at a
local drug store, while as rule ar
senate of lead is not handled by
such dealers. The arsenate of lead
can be secured from wholesale deal
ers and most all seed houses.
How to Distribute the Poison
About six inches from each end of
board one inch thick and four in
ches wide, and twelve inches longer
than the width of the rows, bore
hole one inch Oh more in diameter.
Cut two pieces of cloth, 2Oxl4 in
ches, the cloth being about the
weight of s OF. duck. Make two
bags of these pieces of cloth and
tack one on each end, securely un-
der the hole in the board. The holes
in the boards may be closed with
wooden shoppers made for that pur-
pose. The bags are about inches
deep and 10 inches long. This ar
rangement can be carried on foot
or on a mule and two rows treated
at the same time. Apply in the
morning while the dew is on the
plants but dc not get the bags wet.
If Paris green is used repeat if rain
wa hes it off.
Amount Of Poison to Jsc-For
cotton three feet high use the fol-
lowing amounts OF which ever
poison is used. The amount varies
according to whether the cotton is
smaller or larger than three feet
high. And in the case Of corn and
other plants vary accordingly
Arsenate Of Lead-4-5 pounds
per acre. No danger of burning.
Paris Green to .! pounds per
acre-On large plantations where
quick work is imperative, the Paris
Green should not he used in quanti-
ties materially exceeding the dose.

seriously burning the foliage.

The recent succession of acquitals
of women accused Of killing or trying
to kill their husbands is taken with
special seriousness in Chicago, where
seven women are now awaiting trial
for murder The recent trial there
is generally taken for a gross mis-
carriage of Justice and not a little
attention has been drawn to the
recommendation of District Attorsev
Wayman that women be tried jby
illries of women As to the difficult
ty of getting Jury of men to CON
Wet a woman of murder there il
abundance evidence: what effect the
pmomentons consequences of the de

impossible, and there should not be

The indications are that Senator
Bailey was entirely correct in saying
that the getting together Of the

simply for the sake Of trying to get
the offices. 1t cannot be matter

either one Of them Is like the DEM

seems to have been great farce.
The Bull Moose people have endors-
ed all the Republican candidates In
West Virginia except the candidates

Bull Moose men and have already
been endorsed by the Republicans,

Moosers and Republicans alike.
Former President Roosevelt has
already stated that no honest man
can support Taft and yet asks for
the vote Of honest men himself. This
would mean that 1t is Mr.. Roose-

West Virginia, for they are all Taft
supporters nominated on a Taft
ticket and asking for the support OF
honest men.
Even the candidates for congress-

Dublicans have been endorsed by the
Bull Moose party and they are ask

Sooner or later the people will gain

some Of the men affiliating more OF

rise above such trickery and decep-

whether they will do so before it is
too late to retain their manhood

crimes. The time of reckoning is
