Senator Mitchell Talks.
ttoasons Why It Mut be Mado a
Public Hlfihway Ita Im
portance. Senator Mitclicll savs that if
there is any one matter in which
the people of Oregon, ashington
and Idaho are intensely interested
it is the opening up of the Colum
bia ami Snake rivers to free navi
gation, Thu Columbia is one of
the great rivers of the world, and
drains an enormous area contain
ing more than 2'1),WK) square
miles. The drainage basin of the
Columbia is second to none iu
point of size and commercial im
portance in the United States.
The cereals produced annually in
the Columbia and Snake river val
leys are in the neighborhood of
50,000,000 bushels. This great
country is rich, not only in cereals,
hut in timber. In the Clear river
valley, it is said that white pine is
now standing estimated at 27,000,
000,000 feet, while in Grand Hemic
valley there is 2,o00,000,0!0 feet of
lumber, to nay nothing of gold and
copper mines in Idaho, Kiutcm
Oregon and Washington, which
arc exceedingly valuable and pro
ductive. The gold belt of Lftslern
Oregon produces quite a sum, over
-',000,000 anuuiliy iir gold alone;
The Coeur d'Alene district in
Idaho has the largest lead silver
mines in the United Stales, while
undeveloped Copper lilies ill the
Seven Devils district niutig Snakt;
river aru lying dormant,' simply
for lack of means of transporta
tion. In referring to tho products
of this great Inland Empire, we
must not overlook the wool pro
duct, the oats, hurley, cattle, sheep,
fruits and hogs.
Hi cellulitis Lite iu Haystack.
A short time ago a party of jolly
young people of the Haystack
country thought to have a picnic
and so they gathered up a team
and light wagon among- the boys
and taking their partners hied
themselves away to the shady dells
along Crooked river. All went
well on the downward trip, but
after a day of pleasure they started
home and us there was a verv
heavy grade to go up and the
horses not being accustomed to
working together, there was trouble
in store for tho boys. As they
were fairly well started on the
grade tll horses "balked" and a
serious dilemma faced the young
men. There was no coaxing those
horses and as for force, oh no, that
would never do. At last after
many attempts to get the team to
go the boys unhitched them and
took their places and the girls led
the horses. Our informant says
that Dave Harnett and John I!rown
and Kd Gillam and Cap llcaley
pull well together.
Notice.
Notice is hereby given to tho legal
voters of Crook county, Oregon;
It has come to me that certain par
ties are telling that I had not and
would not accept the nomination, on
the democratic, ticket, fur I'mmiir
Judge, which is a mistake. 1 am out
for the office and if elected will qualify
and conduct the office to the best of
my ability for the best interest of the
taxpayers of Crook county.

Some time ago the local camp of
Woodmen offered two prizes to the
members securing the largest number

ing of ten dollars cash, was won by P,

dollars, was won by M. R. Tenipleton,
During the contest the Woodmen

Roscoe Knox was down from Post
the first of the week and informed our
reporter that he would save about 9i)
per cent of his lambs this season. He
has lambed almost wholly on ttlfalht
hay and finds that it is better than
all range herding during the lambing
season. When coyotes and other "var
mints" are not bothersome he has his
in tn b band about a mile from 'the
himbiug ground ind lets the ewes slid
young lambs work their way to tint
band at their leisure- wlreli ke -find
very succeosful and which results in
very few orphans. Mr. Knox is a very
successful sheep man.
Hon. M. Mulvahill is in the city
from Mitchell. Mr. Mulvuhil! was a
candidate for the legislature from
Wheeler county, but the democrats
over there did not see fit to give him
the nomination. While Wheeler
county is not in our district we Ted
sure that the democratic party did
very foolish thing when thy refused
the nomination to such it man as Mr.
Mulvahill. While he is not of our
political faith we have no hesitancy
in savin? that hp would bilve hiiiinr.st
the county had he beeu elected. His
great ambition is the betterment of
our public school system and any man
that has the good of the common
schools at heart is a safe man to trust
in the high places of our government.
This world would be a better world if
there were more like him.
