KCAMATH COUNTRY Situation - and Character .of Southeastern Oregon, REGION OF ABOUNDING WATERS Jk Land Wrought by Flood and Fire -.Too Cold for General Agri culture, but Ideal for Livestock. (By a staff -scrlter First Letter.) IiAKBVIBW, Or., Oct. 11. Southeast ern Oregon is essentially a country of and by Itself, but at the same time it is a country of curious connections and de pendencies. Geographically and geolog ically it i3 close kin to Nevada, being part of the great plateau which forms the eastern slope of the Cascade and Sierra Nevada Ranges, extending north to the Blue Mountains and eastward far enough to include the greate? part of Southern Idaho. Politically it is part of Oregon, for it lies north of the arbitrary line which form's the California, boundary. Commercially it belongs to California, for Its shorter and easier lines of transport He to .the south rather than to the north, and this fact has served In times past and present to affiliate it closely with the markets of San Francisco. Colloquially Southeastern Oregon means all that part of the state which lies cast of the Cas cade Mountains and below the Southern border of Crook, Grant and Baker Coun ties, Including the vast territories of Klamath, 'Lake, Harney and Malheur Counties. In superficial area it is some thing more than one-fourth of Oregon, but It is a remote and neglected corner of the state, scantily populated and al t most wholly undeveloped. AH told, It has only 12.4S2 white people, as. reported by the last Federal census. Its towVis are mere villages, widely separated. There Is not a pound of railroad iron in it, and the stage, the saddle pony and the freight wagon, operating over mountain roads, are its only means of transportation. A journey from Portland to any town in the. heart of this region say to Lake view, from which I write Is an enter prise calling for as much time as a trip to New York, and is attended by far greater personal discomfort. Indeed, it Is xl Journey not to be undertaken prudently by anybody lacking in bodily vlgor,or unwilling to submit to such hardships as are inseparable 'from travel In a pioneer country. Th-j roads are long, and they are not smooth; the rubber tire Is un known; not every stopping place is the abode of luxury or- even comfort. But with pioneer conditions, here as else where, there goes a certain, heartiness and genuineness of spirit and of manners which more than make up for all con- ventional deficiencies; .and I cannot con ceive of a man who has once made the 'round of the southeastern towns who would not gladly repeat the experience. The region immediately under observa tion lxr this writing and in others to fol lowis that of Klamath and Lake Coun ' tics, which form the western and more developed half of Southeastern Oregon. We are accustomed to classify this region In its climatic and general conditions with Eastern Oregon, and there are In It many points of likeness to .the country bordering-'the Upper Columbia River. But upon close inspection the classification will not hold good. The Klamath country lies higher by from 2000 to 2000 feet. Its low est surfaces being close to the 4000-foot line, while much of It Is upwards of 5000 ' feet above sea level. Its heights, perhaps one-fourth of its whole area, are heavily timbered, while Eastern Oregon for the most part is bare. An elevation like this tells, of course. In ten thousand condi tions In a generally lighter atmosphere, in colder night airs with frost every month In the year, in a more limited range of vegetation, In many and curious effects upon both animal and vegetable life. But the most Important difference of all is the wealth of water in the Klamath region. Not even the country of the Willamette, with its more than abundant Winter precipitation, is more bountifully watered than is this elevated land of scant rainfall; and the secret of It is not far to seek. The near-by Cascade Moun tain range, gathering -up and conserving its waters like a gigantic sponge, gives them forth in a thousand gushing foun tains which pour Into a great lake sys tem, of . which Crater Lake and the Klamaths are the largest, where they He conveniently above the general levels of the country available . for any purpose to which the wit or purpose of man may elect to apply them. The special distinc tion of the country relates directly to this abounding water resource and to the chain of elevated reservoirs with which nature, by one of her marvels, has en dowed this otherwise dry and barren Land. Ten thousand local conditions attest that this region was bora literally of the shock of ocean and of earthquake. The marks of fire and flood are all about. The mountains lying west and north of Klam ath Lake are plainly b.lown-out volcanoes and the soil everywhere is a decomposed volcanic substance, light like the ash and pumice of which It Is composed, and like the soils of Umatilla and Walla Walla "Counties, amazingly endowed with the elements of fertility. The incomparable natural pastures of the country, the rank growths which make a thicket of every spot where soil and water commingle, the (wonderful response of the land under husbandry, bear witness to the poten tialities of a soil which would seem almost too light for rich or enduring substance. But the value of the soils of the Klam ath region, like those of the Upper Colum bia Basin, bave been tried by the most severe and practical of tests, that of heavy and continuous cropping, and under these tests have demonstrated their qual ity. As the local phrase goes, they are "inexhaustible"; and while this of course is not "literally true, it is so far true that no man now living need make calcula tions .looking to the time when the fertil ity of the Klamath lands will be exhaust ed. So far as the present generation is concerned these lands will meet any de mands that may be made upon them; and the -great future may be depended upon to take care of Its own-Interests. With a single exception the valleys of Southeastern Oregon, with Its lakes and marshes, which are merely submerged valleys, range north and south. In the grand geological squeeze by which these regions were .uplifted, the pressure, plain ly, was from the east and the west. The mountainous spurs spread everywhere, but their general trend, like that of the great mountain chains, is north and south. In going cross-country from Klam ath County Into Lake, one passes .through a series of depressions and elevations like the traditional streak of fat and streak of lean In the "side meat" of old Missouri; and It is these depressions or valleys which ultimately are to make the wealth of the country. For unnumbered ages the fertility of the mountain slopes has been washed into them. Their soils, grown to a depth of many feet, are surpassingly rich, and- even without artificial culti vation yield an amazing annual harvest of the stock feed -which is the chief prod uct of the country and the support of its main industry. Seeded to the alfalfa plant and fructified by Irrigation, -which in most such situations is a mere matter of Industry, the natural production of the soil is easily quadrupled, and a space of a few acres with a little freedom upon the outside range may be made to sup port a surprising weight of stock. Every local condition marks the Klam ath region as a stock country. The high elevation, with its accompaniment of early and late fro3ts, renders general ag riculture dut of the question. Potatoes do well In many places; apples grow In great beauty and perfection in some sit uations; the hardier vegetables may bo successfully grown almost anywhere; even the peach tree manages to live and mature Its fruit In a few specially favored nooks. But speaking broadly, the main production of the country the thing which In all situations and in all seasons may be depended upon In abundance and In unrivaled quality, is stock feed. There Is no other use to which the land can bo put that is half so profitable. The exper ience of the country has demonstrated this beyond a doubt; and upon the basis of this established fact the energy of the country proceeds. There is, indeed, no other productive Industry In the country besides the stock business. Storekeepers, lawyers, bakers and candlestickmakers there are in the country, to be sure, but directly or indirectly they live by the stock industry. Literally it is the steer that feeds them all. And under any prob able or possible development of the coun. try It must always bo so. The atmosphere of pioneer conditions is over all this country. The state of the roads, the local habits of speech, the stalwart self-sufficiency and Independence of the people, the simple dwellings, still in many Instances made of log.?, the open air washroom outside the kitchen ' door, where one makes his breakfast toilet after cracking the ice in the waterpail these facts and others speak with empha sis of primitive Ideas and primitive habit. Hospitality, after the cordial fashion of new countries, very commonly takes the liquid form. But withal, the country Is not new. I find men and women of native birth, with children of their own; and in one Instance I have met a blooming grand mother proudly a daughter of the soil. "For 40 years," said a local patriarch to me yesterday, "this country has been my home, and I wouldn't swap It for- any other on the round earth." And thereby hangs an Interesting history; but It must wait for another writing. A. H. LIGHT COMBINE IN TEXAS Electrical Plants Abont Dnllnn to Be Controlled br One . Concern. DALLAS, Tex., Oct. 14. The sale of the Dallas Ice Factory, Light & Power Com pany to a Kansas City man is believed to be another move toward the merging of all the electrical plants of this city, ana many or jnose in the surrounding towns and cities of Texas. Alreadv a con cern known as the Dallas Electric Cor poration, and chartered in New Jersey. with a capital stock of $S,5O0,O00. is said to have absorbed the Dnllnn VAontrir T.Vit fefrawer Company, the Standard Light & Power Company, the Rapid Transit Street Rallway Company and the Consolidated Street-Rallway Company, with an ultimate intention of building a network of Inter- urban lines within a radius of 100 miles of Dallas, which district has a population of over 1,000.000 inhabitants. A. Boston concern has acquired several valuable franchise, for a metropolitan street-railway system In Dallas, within the last few months, and has installed part of the system. Inter-urban lines are in operation between Dallas and Fort Worth, a distance of SO miles, and between Denl son and Sherman, nine miles. A representative of an Ohio corporation which has several hundred miles of elec tric lines In operation in Ohio, Indiana and Michigan has presented a proposition to a meeting of the Sherman business men for the building of an electric line be tween Sherman and Waco, via Dallas, to cast 53,000,000. It was stated that the projectors had an ultimate object of ex tending the road to Austin, and the con struction of from 10 to 20 feed lines of from 20 to 40 miles to connect with the main or Sherman-Austin line. The propo sition is being considered by a committee of 11. SAMAR IS NOW PEACEFUL General Fred" Grant Is Satisfied Hos tilities Arc at an End. SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 14. Speaking of conditions on the Island of Samar, Gen eral Fred D. Grant, vwho has Just returned from the Philippines, said In an Interview: "Samar is enjoying the first period of peace that It has ever known, and I am entirely satisfied that the inhabitants of the islands will not attempt to make any further trouble for our Government. Now that they have been forced by the stress of military operations to. cease their hos tility the natives for the most part seem actually and absolutely contented with the new order of things. "When I first went to Samar It was a case of flght your way everywhere and protect yourself while so doing. A soldier could not venture much out of hailing dis tance of even the conquered towns with out being set upon and killed by savage natives. Now an American can go any where and go unarmed. "The Mores, of course, will commit acts j of depredation now and again, but it needs i only a strong police force to hold them in check. A little trouble may also be expected from the natives of the Sulu group, who are more Ignorant than those on the other Islands." General Grant paid a high tribute to the services in checking the cholera epi demic rendered by Surgeons Reno,. Sar gent, Pinto, Dekraft and Stockdale. OLD PRISON-SHIP FOUND. Famous British Craft Discovered at the Brooklyn Navy-Yard. NEW YORK. Oct. 14. After lying buried for over a century, the famous English prison-Ehlp Jersey, in which several Amer icans were martyrs while the British held New York in the days of the Revolution, has been recently discovered at the Brook lyn navy-yard by the workmen who are putting up the launching stays of the battleship Connecticut. Historical asso ciations have been searching for the Jersey for CO years. The half-burned hull of the ship is lying UDder 12 or 14 feet of, dirt and water, and Is in perfect condition.

CAUSE OF THE COLLISION IirVESTIGATIOJf OF HASSALO-CY-PROMBSB ACCIDENT. Local Steamboat Inspectors Talcing Testimony on Both Sides Falrport Sails With Wheat Cargo. Captain Edwards and Mr. Fuller, local United States inspectors of hulls and boilers, began an investigation yesterday morning of the collision' between the Brit ish ship Cypromene and the river steamer Hassalo. The collision occured near Cof fin Rock, at 1 o'clock on the morning of October 5. The ship was lying at anchor for the night, being on her way down the river with a cargo of wheat. As a result of the encounter, the bowsprit of the ship tore a big hole in the side of the steamboat's cabin. It was to discover if the officers of the Hassalo were to blame that the investigation was called. J. Couch Flanders appeared as attorney for the owners of the Cypromene, and Henry Conners for the steamboatmen. The witnesses were questioned as to the condition of the weather 'at the time of the accident and the requirements of the law in the matter of lights, signals, etc. The first witness called was Captain Ed ward Sullivan, of the Hassalo. Shortly before the accident, he had turned the boat over to Pilot Barton, but had not retired. The weather, Captain Sullivan said, was not thick, except at times, where t&efog lay in heavy banks on the rler. It was in such a bank that the Cypromene was anchored. Captain Sulli van admitted that the ship had out her. anchor lights, but the fog was so thick that the light could not be discovered until the vessels were close upon each other. Pilot Barton corroborated Captain Sul livan's remarks about the weather. He said that when the ship loomed up out of the fog every effort was made to clear her, but the steamer swung her port side against the bowsprit of the vessel, which tore out much of the woodwork. The watchman of the Hassalo, Second Officer Davey, of the Cypromene, and a sailor of the ship, also gave evidence as to the weather and conditions at the time of the collision. Captain Roberts, of the Cypro mene, was present, but did not testify, as he was a passenger aboard the Has salo, en route to Astoria to Join his ship, and was in his berth when the accident occurred. The Investigation will be con cluded by the Inspectors this morning. NOVEMBER WIND AND WEATHER. What May Be Expected in the Pacific Next Month. The North Pacific Pilot Chart for No vember gives the following forecast of wind and weather in the North Pacific Ocean for the next month: The chart of normal pressure for No vember shows an area of high barometer (maximum pressure 30.20 inches), central in latitude 30-35 deg. N., longitude 130-140 dcg. W. Around this area the winds cir culate in the same direction as the mo tion of the hands of a watch, northwest erly and northerly winds prevailing be tween the maximum and the coast; north easterly and easterly winds (the NE. trades) on the southern slope; southeast erly and southerly wjnds to the. west of the maximum; westerly and northwester ly winds along the northern' slope. In di rection the trades will vary from NE. along the meridian 125 deg. W. to ENE. In mid-ocean. From 140 deg. W. to 140 deg. E. the freshest and steadiest trades will be found between the parallels 10-15 deg. N. Along the American Coast north of 40 deg. the winds will go from SE. (with falling barometer) to NW. (with rising barometer). Immediately Under the coast the most frequent direction will be SE., Inclining to SW. beyond the meridian of 125 deg. Gales of force" eight or over may be expected, setting In at SE. with fall ing barometer and dying out at NW. South of 40 dcg. and east of 130 deg. the majority of the winds will come from the NW. quadrant; beyond 130 deg. from the SW. quadrant. Continuing southward, northwesterly winds may be expected between the coast and a Une drawn from 35 dcg. N.,,130 deg. W., to 15 deg. N., 105 deg. W. Southerly and southwesterly winds will prevail throughout a belt extending from the equator to 10 deg. N. and from the Ameri can Coast to 120 deg. W. Occasional cyclonic storms of no great Intensity (gales of force 10) may be ex pected between the parallels 10 deg. and 20 deg. N. along the sailing route from San Francisco to the line and return. An elongated trough of low barometer lies 4to the southward of the Aleutian Islands. Around this trough the circula tion of the winds Is cyclonic or contrary to the motions of the hands of a clock. The two circulations, cyclonic (around the low) and antlcyclonlc (around the high), thus unite in giving to the winds over the northern half of the ocean a westerly direction. Two or three typhoons may be expected during November. During December their frequency Is less. The typhoons of these months are especially severe. One. of the earliest signs of the approach or a. ty phoon is the apparent failure of the ba rometer to respond to the diurnal oscil lation. Fog, mist and haze, on the coast of China, from Hong Kong to Shanghai, 9 per cent, 1. e., 9 hours In each 1C0; East ern. Sea and Gulf of Pechlll, S per cent; Gulf of Alaska, south of 55 dcg., 9 per cent; American Coast, Puget Sound to San Francisco, 20 per cent; San Fran cisco to Cape San Lucas, 19 per cent. The Winter area of high pressure cen tral over Continental Asia is now well es tablished, and the antlcyclonlc circulation to which this area gives rise covers the China and Celebes Seas, the Philippine Islands and the eastern coast of Asia as far north a3 Shanghai, with the NE. (Winter) monsoon. Beyond this point the prevailing direction of the wind will be north to NW. In the vicinity of the mainland the monsoon exhibits a marked tendency to follow the trend of the coast. Here It also weakens slightly by night. and at the same time blows somewhat offshore, bften permitting a vessel close under the land to mane way northward against It. The. monsoon brings thick weather and rain along a weather shore A rising barometer foreruns an Increase in strength, a falling barometer a de crease. FAIRPORT SAILS WITH "WHEAT. Two Slorc Grnln-Carrlers on the Way Up the River. The Falrport left down the river at 1 o'clock yesterday, in tow of the Ockla hama. The ship has a cargo of 122.S71 bushels jof wheat, valued at $81,062. She was loaded by Balfour, Guthrie & Co., and is bound for Queenstown for orders. The steamer Thompson Is on the way up the river with the Adolf and the Mada gascar, both of which arrived In Sunday morning. The Adolf Id a German ship of 1651 tons, in charge of Captain Schlpp mann. The ship sailed from San Fran cisco September 25. She is under charter to Balfour, Guthrie & Co., to load wheat for the United Kingdom. She gets a rate of 26 shillings. The Madagascar, a Brit ish bark of 1996 tons. Captain Smith, mas ter, sailed from Algoa Bay June 16. She was takenoy the Northwestern Ware house Company, at 28s 9d, also for wheat for the United Kingdom. LOW WATER IN WILLAMETTE. River Probably at Bottom Stage for This Season. The river is now at what will probably be Its lowest stage this year, as the Fall rains are apparently about to set In. Yes terday the Willamette at this point regis tered. 1.5 foot above zero, when the measurement was taken by the Weather Bureau. Since the Sth of the month there has been some fluctuation, running from; five-tenths of a foot to" two feet above low water mark, according to the time' of the tide, the river reaBfng being taken at the same hour each day. The tide Is about a foot less than it was a year ago, the records of Forecast Official Bea'.s shcrwlng that in October, 1S01, the range was between 1.6 and 2.7 feet. The lowest water last year was- on October 21 and 22, when the river stood only four-tenths of a foot above the zero mark. Lowest water readings in preceding years were as fol lows: In 1900, 2.1 feet above,, on .October 14; lalS99, 2.3 feet above, on October 14: In 189S, seven-tenths of a foot.above, on Octo ber 25; in 1S97, four-tenths of a foot- above, on October 21; in 1S93 there were zero readings on October 15 and 16, and In 1S93, on October 17, the Willamette registered one-tenth of a foot below low water mark. Should the expected rains come now, a rise of from three to five feet may be looked for in November. FAITH IN PILOT EMKEN. Captain Anderson Wants Him to Again Bring: In Ship. ASTORIA, Or., Oct. 14. (Special.) Before leaving San Francisco for this port, Captain Anderson, of the steam ship Poplar Branch, wrote to the repre sentatlveo of the river pilots here Re questing that Pilot Henry-Emken might be selected to take, hfs vessel up and down the river. Captain Anderson ex plained thi3 request by stating that when he was here in command of the Almond Branch his vessel met with, quite a seri ous accident and Captain Emken was act ing as pilot at the time. To, show that he did not in any way blame Emken for the accident he desired to be under his pro tection again. The quick, trip of the Pop lar Branch up the river evidently Justified Captain Anderson's confidence. LONDON IS ALARMED. Snspects Morgan at Trying to Get Control of the Port. NEW YORK, Oct. 14. J. P. Morgan is now charged with endeavoring to control the port of London, cab'les the London correspondent of the Tribune, The names of J. P. Morgan & Co. and the Atlantic Transport Company appear among the list of signatures to a requisition to the Lord Mayor which has resulted in the calling of a Mansion House meeting for the purpose of discussing the best means of bringing London docks up to date. This is regarded by some of the newspapers as a suspicious step on the part of the ship ping combination, and Londoners are ser iously urged to take care that the meet ing does not give Mr. Morgan control over the port of the capital of 'the British Empire. Lake Steamer Fonndcrs. ASHTABULA, O., "Oct. 14. The wooden steamer C. B. Lockwood, bound for Buffalo, foundered last night about 15 miles off. this port, during a heavy storm. The captain and crew succeeded In launching- two boats Just before the steamer went down. One of the boats containing the captain was picked up near the harbor this morning. The other boat has not yet been heard, frqm. Tugs and llfesavers are searching "for the miss ing boat, which contained 10 members of the crew. The Lockwood was a freighter owned by the Gilchrlsts, of Cleveland. She was 2S5 feet long, and commanded by Captain Casslus French. Nokomls Loading at 'St.- Helens. ST. HELENS, Or., Oct. 14. The four masted schooner Nokomls,' of San Fran cisco, is loading with lumber at Muckle's dock. The capacity of the vessel Is 700, 000 feet, and this will be the largest ship ment of lumber yet made by the St. Hel ens Lumber Company. The schooner was chartered through the agency of"Jam"e3 Laldlaw, British Consul at Portland, and tile lumber will be shipped to Valparaiso, Chile. Whnleback Barse Sinks. SAULT STB. MARIE. Mich,, Oct. 14. Whaleback bargQ No. 129, .owned by the United States Steel Corporation, was struck by collision with the steamer Mauna Loa In the gale on Lake Superior yesterday.

Judge Hosme Makes Important De cision on 1 d'CIock Closing Lair in Quelle Case. It was" decided yesterday by Municipal Judge Hogue that the word saloon covers the whole of the rooms operated as. me Quelle saloon and restaurant. In the case of J. Schienk. one of the proprietors of the Quelle, ehareed with violating city ordinance No. 10,904, in keeping open his saloon within the prohibited hours or x A. M. and 5. A M. Schienk was fined $25, as it was his first offense, and as the present Is the' first-attempt for a long time to enforce "the law. The evidence by Police Sergeant Church. was that he entered .the Quelle by the Stark-street door about 1:55 A. M., Octo ber 5, and on passing to the grillroom he saw four men eating crawfish and drink ing beer. "According to the evidence, there was foam on the beer, showing that it had been recently sold," went on, the Judge, In his statement, passing sentence. The defendant admitted that these per sons were In the grillroom at the hour stated, but asserted that the grillroom was not a saloon, but a restaurant, and that he was not violating the ordinance in keeping open the grillroom.. He also Insisted that no beer or liquor had been sold after 1A.M. There seems to be no question that both the grillroom and the private boxes constitute a part of tne De fendant's salooni and that the ordinance Is violated by the keeping open of any door leading to any of the rooms. It has been held that a room connected with a saloon, where Intoxicating liquors can be served on prohibited days, and where liquors are served occasionally or habit ually on ordinary days, Is part of the saloon, and to keep It open on a prohib ited day is a violation of the statutes." The Judge read other legal authorities In support of his decision that the Quelle grillroom Is a part of the Quelle saloon; J. Lcswlg. a saioonneeper on .seven teenth street, near Pettygrew, was fined $25 yesterday by Municipal Judge Hogue, charged with keeping open his saloon for business after 1 A. M.

Catarrh of the stomach has long been considered the next thing to incurable. The usual symptoms are a full or bloat ing sensation after eating, accompanied sometimes with sour or watery risings, a formation of gases, causing pressure on the heart and lungs and difficult breath ing headaches, fickle appetite, nervous netis and a general played-out, languid There Is often a foul taste In the mouth, coated tongue and If the Interior of the. stomach could be seen it would show a slimy, inflamed condition. The cure for this common and obstinate trouble Is found In a treatment which causes the food to be readily, thorough ly digested before it has time to ferment and Irritate the delicate mucous surfaces of the stomach. To secure a prompt and "healthy digestion Is the one necessary thing to do and when normal digestion is secured the catarrhal condition will have disappeared.

Medical authorltlfc prescribed for me for three years for catarrh of stom ach without cure, but. today I am the happiest of men after using only one box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. I can not find appropriate words to express my good feeling. 1 have found flesh, appe tite and sound rest from their use."
