Curtiss, the special cor respondent for the Chicago Record- Herald, who yesterday went to Wal Iowa county as stated In the Observer, to secure data to produce a general descriptive writeup of Eastern Oregon arrived here this afternoon In com pany with Gen. Pas. Agent Win. Mc- Murray and Traveling Passenger Agent J. II. O'Neal. He will remain here several hours, visiting the mill and beet fields, and conferring with local irrlgatlonists, all of which will be inoculated in his writeup. His visit is worth more to the county's ex ploitation, than any of recent months. In a brief interview today Mr. Cur tiss fairly exploded with compliments of Wallowa and Union counties.
