3 mil inn iuiiiL Wt Masonic Biol'
Square Deal for Indians.
Riverside, Cel., April 28. A move
ment to give the Indians of the fa:
West a square deal and to protec
them from the rapacity of land-grah
bers and politicians was launched her
today In an Interstate conference c
heads of Indian tribes, well know
educators and philanthropists.
The greatest object of the confei1
ence, which will continue throug'
three days, Is to open the eyes of th
Interior department and of the peopl
to the utter Incapability of the Indian
to compete In a commercial way wit'
their white neighbors. Dr. David
Starr Jordan, president of Stanfon
university, la one of the leaders In tin
movement.
It is declared that thousands ol
western Indians are now landless anc"
homeless, and on the point of starva
tion because of their Inability to cope
with the unscrupulous whites wh
have robbed them of their possessions
It Is admitted that the effort to edu
cate the Indians to the standards c
white men's civilization, while sue
cessful in some Individual Instance?
has been largely a failure and tha
other methods of conserving tho In
tercsts of the native Americans wii
have to be devised.
A state convention of tho Callfornl
Fruitgrowers' association was als
opened here today and hns attracted
a large number of delegates. The ses
slon will last four days.

Once more the name of La Grande
has gone forth as aynonlmous with
a live, hustling community. During
the past week newspapers of the state
have spoken liberally of the era which
La Grande has entered Into, but few
have given as much editorial space as
the Portland Telegram did yesterday,
heading the editorial column with It.
The tribute follows:
In the city of La Grande they have
hit upon rather a novel method of ex
ploitation, which has to do with cul
tivating the good, will of the home
folk. Not long ago they had a live
stock show up In that metropolis of
eastern Oregon, and from all accounts
It was what the exuberant fellow
would term a howling success. From
this,' the La Grande folk took the
hint, and decided to give a sort of con
tinuous performance; and from all ac
count It appears that tin iu Ss: 8
good one.

All the details of the matter Is no'

public spirited man that there Is th'

proposition of getting well acquainted
with your next door neighbors Is- i
most excellent one for every town an
city In the state, and especially If your
next door neighbors are the tillers o
the soil around about, who at firs
hand are your real support.
There Is nothing that will go farther
for general state advancement than
the cultivation of good will betweei

Such courtesy and entertainment, a
we understand, characterizes this Lr
Grande enterprise, amounts to an ex
change of favor between the city mai
and the country man. It assuredly
has this effect, that In any publi

The "Passion" play, with all Iti

evening for a solid week. The thref
performances drew packed houses.
Beginning with the arrival of th
Wise men from the East, the film fol

The "Passion" play Is given ever?
10 years by a colony In Germany li

ago, when a plague visited that com

there Is no humor In the play, and I
theatergoers expect It, they had bettei
stay away. There is, however, ar
abundance of food for thought, ami
for higher thinking, as the life of
Jesus Christ Is pictured on the screen.
