Eastern Oregon today faces a series of struggles pertaining to the estab lishment of a branch asylum in thls section of th state, but each Individ- ual struggle 'must be fought separate ly and In tho fog-leal 'sequence ln which It comes. By a short but Important series of steps that are within the realm of the possible, it Is now a prae- begin work oei his section and a half east of Calgary. He says that it Is the best wheat country on the American continent. Bert Huffman, formerly of Union county, is farming his land east of Calgary this year. Conductors Jack Smith and Len McCrary, of the O. ft. & N., will begin work on a section near Strathmore this spring. Wheat raising on the Canadian Pa cific trait Is not an experiment now. Miles F'trrel, .1 farmer near Calgary, harvested' 4fi .i bushels of winter wheat per acre on a full half section of new land. thai fact that an asylum may Ws-j tabllshed either near Baker City, near Union or near rendleton. At the fin ish of the popular vote, it will be known whether or not an asylum will become n reality. 'When this vote is cast, other toxical. stepn In the pro cess of iiillre fulfillment of the pro ject will follow.. Today, however, the problem on which the three counties Involved are Interested, Is to Insure the passage of tho measure by popular vote. it will require some effort yes, great effort to cojivlce the west ern and southern portions of the state beyond a question of doubt, that the usylum Is needed here. This done, the measure wilt pass. At such n time, the three counties will divide themselves, one against the other, and may the highest Inducements set forth bring wanted results. i . INTEIM'OUNTY CONVENTIONS. One of the most excellent methods of cementing business and social re latloiiH of the Damon-Pythias type. Is the lodgo Inter-county gatherings and conventions. On a small plan this has been done by the lodges of Union and Wallowa counties in the past , and should be fostered to even r groater degree. One lodge of the' city could readily afford to entertain guests-from Wallowa county once a year, on a scale that would accomplish the pur pose Intended for It. For Instance, the Odd Fellows might next month prepare something elaborate In the way ofa "blow-out" for Wallowa county Odd Fellows. It would bring, say a score of men to La Grande. Next month, a different sect, In Wal lowa county would be attracted to Ln Grande by another lodge, and so on the year around. The variance in lodges here necessarily would draw from arlous localities and various peoples In Wallowa. The benefits derived from such visits en masse, are too common and too numerous to need elaboration. . In addition to meeting living and trillion expenses, many students In Or egon Normals are giving financial aid to fight the inroads of death to their respective institutions. It Is evident Unit none of the legislators opposed to appropriating funeral expenses to the Normals had sons or daughters In these schools. The extent of lawlessness, even among lawmakers is sometimes ap palling. The wonder Is each desk In the legislative assembly and senate chamber of the California capitol is not supplied with a faucett. Beer and whisky on tap would not be so slow. ; In losing his equilibrium while as cending a stairs yesterday,' Presldent- elect T.aft fell.

PER ACRE Yields or from 50 to 60 bushels have been commonly reported all through the new settlement In the Bow River valley. One crop pays for the land. A. E. Burnett harvested 60 ',i bushela of No. 1 wheat on new land east of Calgary in 1908. Over 100 bushels of oats were grown on land adjoining the above tract. Spring wheat matures In 120 days owing to the long hours of sunshine In the growing season. DON'T BE A RENTER WHfiX YOU CAN OWN A HOME IN A NEW COUNTRY.

CLEANED UP With the completion of the Chan dler trial now on, will come the word "finis" to the criminal docket of the present term of circuit court. The Jury will be discharged when the pres ent case is over, and may not be called again until the June term, though It ,1s possible that the Sum-mervllle- whisky cases may come to trial In three weeks or about that time, and In such an event the Jury will be called again. The criminal docket for the Febru ary term was a long one, bringing out many cases of wide Importance and general Interest. There were 19 days of continuous Jury trials during the term. Death Narrowly Averted.
