SETTLERS AVOIDING PENDLETOXj Railroad Report Shows Pendleton Is Only City Not Registering Quota, No settlers in the vicinity of Pen dleton is an item recently appearing in the monthly report of the Harrl man lines that Is attracting much In terest locally. ' Other towns In this vi cinity are receiving- their quota of homeseekers, but absolutely none have made Pendleton their destination, ac cording to the Pendleton Tribune. The Dalles received 10 colonists. La Grande received 14, Baker City got IV. Asto ria 15, and Walla Walla 23. They set tled all around this city after their long flight but to none of the new comers did Pendleton look attractive. A prominent resident and business man of this city who dislikes publicity so much he refuses to be quoted, said In discussing the situation: "From year to year I have been noticing this lessening in the numbers of settlers In this neighborhood. Several years ago we received a nmber... They are pros perous men now. For the past two years we have received scarcely none. It is because the people here make no efofrt to attract new settlers, nor do they welcome them when they do uuiua.. ti ill icr towns all around here are receiving j settlers almost dally, while we can not even register one. 5 i! :j . ' - ' "I have taken the matter up with the railroad men, and they tell me that the conditions are not right for settlers here, nor is the town adver tised. .... The. farmers are enlarging their holdings, practically excluding the small investor. It Is a matter of no surprise to me that this city .re ceives no Immigrants." Catholic Centennial.

When the state legislature passed a law Impos ing a tax of SO per cent on the gross proceeds from the sale of revolvers. It was confidently anticipated that the treasury would benefit largely. It has not. Hardware dealers no longer sell pistols but lease them for a period of 50 years, and thus evade payment of the tax, while the possessor of a rent ed gun is quite contented, being satis fled that tho firearm won't be worth much to him at the expiration of the 60-year lease. : Stork Mudo an Error.
