There is hardly a week but one or more patients are sent away for treatment. Some go to Baker City, Pendleton and Walla Walla but the ma jority to Portiand. This is not as it should be. The manufacture of tantalum, one of hardest metals known into sheets and bars is now, it is said, being practiced in Gerinany by the squirting process, the material in its original powdered form being mixed with water and gum trag acanth and then successfully forced into rods and shapes as desired. The direct primary law has certainly revolutionized the politics of this state. Think of it only about ninety days until the legislature moets and very little notice is taken of the fact. Under the former system when -the legislature elected a United States senator, instead of the people, the papers would be giving a great deal of news witti reference to the legis lature which would convene within so short a time. The world does move. It is estimated '.hat during the best past mor.fi over 75,000 head of sheep have been sold from Wallowa county and 65. 000 head from Baktr county. Wool buy- ! ers state that this is d.me on account of the action of the government in extending the forest reserves, and the announce ment recently made that next year 50 However much naval powers may watch and imitate one another in building battleships there will always be marked physical differences imposed by different ccr.d:'.:s-; 0 i.auuuol mari-uine ex istence. Both Germany and the United States are planning ships to rival the great British Dreadnought but it is certain that both German and American ships will differ from the British in important par ticulars. They may be as strong and as seaworthy but they will differ in form as the typical American yateh differs from the British yacht. The British islands posses an abundance of deep harbors and river estuaries in ' which docking facilities can be easily ' proved almost without limit of capacity. 1 American harbors are shallow in com- ' parsion and the low flat shores of the German ocean are bordered by shallow 1 waters and traversed by r.vers that tend ! to fill up with silt at the mouth. Bath j German and American ships have to be i 1 designed of smaller draft. Th s makes them broader of beam for the same ton nage and compels a compete re-arrang-ment of design. All our ships from tre first coast defense battleships have differed in this respect from English ships of r.e same size. The navy depa.tment :s now working 01. a huge battleship of 20.000 tons. If this were a Brit sn warsn.p cr a merchant vessel like the b ; jcean liners it would have at least lo fee: draft. In order to enter as many A-ner can harbors as possible it must be p'ar.red fjr only 50 feet draft. The German batdesVps ...any of which are of the coast defe-se type, have the same lirnitatio-s and mi cr. trie same char acter as ours, and they wili be more likely to copy oui big ship tran the British. Hardly any European pa a er has harbors to occomodate ships of tne British type, the Spain and Italy are oest eq j pped. Therefore their navy vessels resemble those of Great Britain.
