practice of haying live goats This
commercial barbarity is prevalent

is carried out by beginning the faying

KING OF WILD BULLS.
lndia's Gaur Combines Courage and
Audacitv With Great Strenoth

Audacity With Great Strength.
The gaur is often wrongly termed
bison" The name is not correct; the
bison is the bos bonassus of Lithuania
and the Caucasus. The gaur. found in
Indo-China, is certainly the finest of all
the wild bulls; he overawes all op-
ponents by his courage. audacity and
great strength.
He is huge beast and sometimes
measures six feet to the root of the
tail. He is distinguished from all
other wild cattle by the prominent
hump between the two horns The lat.
ter are massive. fat at the base, and
ringed, and they describe very wide
curve from the root upward.
The coat is of an olive brown tint.
shading in black, with very short. fine
hair.
The gaur is found both in the forest
and on the mountains. for. in spite of
his great size, he is extremely agile. so
that he can run up the mountain slopes
and climb the rocks with ease.
Like the elephant. he feeds on grass
and plants. and when he cannot get
these he falls back on bamboo shoots
and the buds and branches of trees.
The gaurs feed until about 8 o'clock
in the morning; then they return to the
bamboo forests and clearings to sleep.
Later in the afternoon they come out
to Craze and drink. They are not timid.

SPORTSMEN Will Be ASKED TO BUY
ELK FOR LOCAL FOREST RESERVE

Enthusiastic over the proposal to
stock the Wenaha reserve with elk
from the Yellowstone national park
but advocating personal subscription
by individual sportsmen rather than
an appropriation by the county for
defraying of the expenses, Judge Ma
loney has returned from Walla Wal
la where the Umatilla county
court met with the Washington COM
missioners and considered with them
the feasibility of securing a herd of
the king of game animals for the To-
cal forest reserve.
Judge Maloney does not think the
county court has the legal right to
make an appropriation for the pur-
chase of elk but he does believe that
there are enough true sportsmen in
Umatilla county to contribute a suf-
ficient fund to secure two carloads of
the animals and he proposes person
ally to start movement to that end.
Elk can be secured at the Yellow
stone park. shipped and freed in the
Wenaha reserve at cost of seven
dollars head. declares the judge, the
government charging only five dol
lars head to capture and ship the
animals and the freight charges am
ounting to an extra two. One car
will hold forty elk and the judge
thinks two cars would make a gooc

sized herd with which to start. He
proposes TO ask that each true sports
man purchase one elk and he thinks
that it will be no difficult matter to
find eighty men willing to contribute
seven dollars apiece.
Judge Maloney's idea is that the
elk purchased by people of this coun-
ty be. not liberated where such as

i'll, who is very enthusiastic over the
proposal does not think there win be
any opposition on the part of the
sheepmen who use the ranges OF the
Wenaha reserve. 1T is not the Inten-
ton TO form an elk reserve" he said
this morning. but to liberate the an
imals and allow them to roam where
they will. Such numbers as will be
brought in will not harm the sheep
ranges in the least. but on the other
hand the sheepmen will profit by
such an introduction. II elk are
brought to the reserve. the state
game service will undoubtedly make
an extra effort to stamp out preda-
tory beasts which prey upon the sheep
as much or more than upon the game
animals"

JUNKET TRIP is
BEING PLANNED
INTERESTING SCHEDULE
Novel Way TO Spend Vacation is En-
dorsed by Roundup Directors
Commercial Club Also Favors Plan
Special Pullman Would Convey
Party Through Northwest.

Before planning your 1913 outing,
stop minute and learn of something
that may give you a novel and more
pleasurable vacation. A twelve thou
sand mile junket trip through the
three states of the northwest in a
special Pullman train is a plan ALREADY
endorsed by the Roundup directors
and the Commercial association and
enthusiastically received by large
number OF the business men of Pen
dleton.
At the meeting of the Commercial
association last evening. Roy w. Rit-
ner, vice president of the Roundup,
announced that at the meeting of the
Roundup directors Monday night the
matter of a long excursion through
Oregon Idaho and Washington had
been proposed and endorsed upon the
condition that the Commercial asso-
citation join in making it a success.
Mr.. Ritner's proposal was caught
up eagerly by those at the meeting
last night A number of prominent
men, who went on the recent Lewis
ton junket trip, were prompt and
loud in their approval of such a pro-
position, expressing the opinion that
great deal of profit would result
both to the people themselves and to
the community. A motion was passed
for the appointment of a committee
to confer with a Roundup commit
tee toward arranging such a trip.
Many Stops Proposed.
AS explained by Mr. Ritner, the
iunket trip would extend over week
or ten days sometime in June or Ju-
ly stops are proposed at The Dalles
Portland, Aberdeen. Olympia, Tacoma
4 Seattle, North Yakima. Pasco, Walla
! Walla, Spokane. Moscow, Lewiston
and other cities along the route. The
suggestion was made that the train
leave by way of Walla Walla and Spo-
kane and end at Portland during the
Rose Carnival and such a route met
with general favor. Half of such q
trip would probably be made over
the Northern Pacific lines and hall
over the O.-W. r. & n.
Mr.. Ritner stated that the assistant
general passenger agent of the latter
company had met with the Round UP
directors and had promised to pro-
vide a train with every modern ac-
commodation known to railway traf-
| fic. The cost of the trip was esti-
mated at $55 per capita.
Mr.. Ritner also stated that he
thought the Roundup association
would be glad to defray the expenses
of taking the Roundup Cowboy

secretary of the treasury, before the
subcommittee of the house currency
committee this afternoon.
Shaw stated: "The object of con-
gress is to relieve Wall street from the
control it exercises over the finances

of some form supplementary to cur
rency, which should spring into ex-
istence when needed and remain as
long as needed, then be retired. 1t
will relieve the country from de-
tendency on Wall street and relieve
the smaller cities from depending up
on the big ones"
"If the Aldrich plan is adopted
Wall street absolutely will control the
finances of the country for a period
OF fifty years." he said.
