Senator Stewart writes this
Office that the first bill to pass
the senate was one preventing
the deduction for grain sacks by
purchasers and he succeeded in
securing an amendment includ-
ing wool sacks. This he explains
will result in saving Of $65, 600
to the wool men of the state
basing the sales at twenty million
pounds per year. The senator is
well pleased with his committee
assignments as most of the bills
that in any wise affect Eastern
Oregon must necessarily come to
one Of his committees. He has
asked that his constituents in
this district feel at liberty to
write him at any time during the
session in regard to any matters
in which they are interested.
The masked ball given by the
Tonawama Band last night was
q success and largely attended.
The affair was entirely in the
hands Of the band boys and the
people of Burns had an opportuni-
ty to contribute in a substantial
way toward the organization and
they responded. The boys have
been giving us some good music
all during the season and have
been making their own way. not
asking any contributions from
the business men but giving
value received for every entertain
ment or concert. The prizes
were awarded to Miss Ella Crow
ley as "Soubrette," and d. d.
Van OLinda as Faust" the
best costumed couple; Glen
Clemens, representing "Schlitz, "
and Miss Ethel Haines as a
negro many" were awarded
the prizes for the most grotesque
characters. The band played
for the entire dance and delight
ed the large crowd with the
music which was an additional
attraction to the masquerade.
There were several good charact-
ers represented, among them
being some ladies' who dressed
as men, initiating some of the
characters around town to good
advantage and fooling all those
present.
Commendable Charity.
