The finding OF historic relies neal
The Dalles recalls to the minds of old
Pendleton residents granite bowl
which was unearthed at Umatilla by
The children of section hand, and
brought to Pend!etcn for exhibition at
Pat kine's saloon. The bowl as de-
scribed by pioneers, was of granite
which is not found in this region, and
was elaborately carved to represent
fish scles. One handle was in the form
OF Il fish tail and the other a head
partly resembling that of fish and
partly OF a man. Kline offered the
section man $2j ror the relic but the
man refused and presented it to the
superintendent VI the railroad. He
resigned and went East and since that
time, all trace of the relic has been
lost.

NEXT TUESDAY rs ELECTION
DAY

Citizens of Trego county should not
forget that next Tuesday is primary
election day They should go to the
polls on that day and help nominate
candidates for the political party
with which they are affiliated. There
was time not many years ago, when
the voters were making a big noise
because they had no voice in the nam
ing of candidates. They complained
so much against the convention sys-
tenn that laws were finally changed
and they were given the primary
election law whereby each voter was
given a chance to have something to
say about who shall be nominated as
candidates on his party ticket The
voters took an active interest in the
election for a time but during the
last few years there has been a lack
of interest manifested. The voters
have not gone to the polls on pri-
mary election day. A Lack of use of
the opportunities afforded will bring
about change in method and likely
a return to the convention system.
If the voters want the advantages OF
the primary election law they must
use them or the convention system
will sbe returned. The writer of this
paragraph is like a good many others
who supported the primary movement
before it became a law. He would
almost gladly welcome return of
the convention system. But as long
as the people have the right to choose
the candidate they should go to the
polls and vote on primary election
day, especially if they want the sys-
tenn continued.

DRILLING STARTS SUNDAY
AUGUST 8TH

C. r. Pollen & Associates announce
that they will have everything ready
and will start drilling on well No. 1
in the Walsh field north of Collyer,
Sunday afternoon, July 9Th. They
expect to have a big time at the web
that day and invite the public to be
present. There will be plenty of free
drinks served by the company, but
if you want anything to eat bring it
along with you.
The drilling work is in charge Of,
and under the direction of Mr.. Pollen
and he has been up against all kinds
of difficulties in getting things lined
up for commencing the well. The
field is so far from any other field
that it has required a great deal of
time to get necessary material here
aside from the inconvenience and de-
lay IN getting the material. Howe yer,
he has everything necessary and q
gang of workmen are busy at the con-
struction and detail work. They will
have everything m readiness by Aug
ust 8th. On account of the delays
which have taken place since the der
rick was erected in March, many have
developed the idea that the whole af-
fair is a fake and a scheme on the
pstrt of the promoters to make q
bunch of easy money form the inno-
cent purchasers and that the well will
never be completed. This idea is not
correct. Mr.. Pollen has given US his
| word that the well will be put down
and that it will be absolutely an hon
est try for oil. He is financially cap
able of making his word good and if
anyone is in doubt he would like very
much if they will investigate his
word and his standing through his
bank at Augusta, Kansas. He has
| gone to Wetumlxi, Oklahoma, this
