Tra i HEW FEDERAL DISTRICT IS DOUBIflll, SAYS ElllS Yesterday morning the following letter was received by Pendleton par ties, showing the present statu of the new district bill: ( Washington, D. C, Feb. 1.5, 1908. Hon. T. C. Taylor, Pendleton, Oregon. My Dear Mr. Baylor: The telegram' sent by yourself and other citizens of n k. . . . . . . Pendleton came to hand In dun limp I note what you say about the de sire of our citizens to have the head quarters of the proposed eastern Ore Run federal district located at Pen - die ton and it rocs without saying that ":!.!:;; ,'.;::!'! v.ff"r more rlenx - lire than to have a district located and nuieton fixed as the place for hold- Inar the court. However, every time I appear be fore the committee having this mat ter In charge I am confronted with the statistics that the business of the present district, as they insist. Is far less than that of many other districts which are not asking for an additional district. The economical fever stands very high here at present and It seems to be the purpose of each particular com mittee to 'keep all expenses, so, far as legislation enacted from that com mittee Is concerned, down to the very lowest possible amount.

Advertising space in the OBSERVER proves a profitable investment. I am urging this matter upon every suitable occasion, but, to speak can didly, I have much fear that If Imme diate action Is Insisted upon that we will get an unfavorable report from the house Judiciary committee. I think the chances for lis passage would be very much better at the ! short session of the present congress I . . . . . rather than the present one, However, If it Is the desire of the people that this matter shall be pressed until consideration is had, 1 'will do my duty along that line, let ! the result be what it may. 1 I am verv sorrv that I eannot wneuk j In more encouraging terms in renal u i to this measure, but candor prompts me to place the situation before you exactly as I see It. I am told that a committee from Baker City will be here shortly In re gard to this measure. I am glad to have them come, for they can better realize the situation after having been on the ground and had a conference with the committee having the matter In charge. Assuring you that I will let no op portunity pass to say a good word In behalf of the pending measure, I am, Yours very truly, W. R. ELLIS. creamery butter were advanced last night from 40 to 45 cents. This in crease was decided on because of the higher prices asked In Spokane, Seat tle, Portland and the northwest gen erally. Quotations In the three principle cities were advanced about a week ago. Since that time the local com pany has been flooded with orders. Under the circumstances it was found necessary here in many Instances to cut orders In two, sending half cases where full ones had been ordered. Many dealers throughout the state hundle several kinds of butter. AVhen any one of these varieties Is offered for less than prevailing price the de mand for that one kind becomes al most universal among dealers, sin- gle creameries are thus made, reelpi- enis of more orders than they can fill.
