The effort of the Crook County
Cattlemen's association to organ
ize a state Association to include
every cattle interest in Oregon, is
one which, if brought to a success
ful termination, will result in
inestimable benefit to every cattle
grower who becomes a jart of the
liody. Aside from the salient
feature that such an organization
would bring in closot touch all
the cattlemen who use the public
range, there is yet a broader view
to be taken. Organization in its
least complete form is better than
none at all, and the state now is
practically devoid of any associa
tion of common interests in the
cattle industry. The organization
planned will be complete in every
detail, will he representative of
the smallest and largest interests,
and will le so controlled that the
greatest possible lenefit will be
derived from the greatest possible
power that can Ik? generated.
Heretofore, and most noticeably
this year, Oregon has felt the
overpowering impact from state
in which a few representative
voiced the opinions and influnce
of hundreds engaged in the cattle
growing business. That represent
auon, coming as it ma trom a
thoroughly organized association,
was capable of wielding a power
that hewed its own way to the
ends desired. Now the local cattle
association proposes that tbi:
state shall be organized along the
same lines existent in others, and
the move no doubt will meet with
lieartv accord in all sections where
the cattle industry is an import
ant factor. Even an imperfect
organization will be better than
the rule of the past nothing at
all but it is not likely that lhe
local association will rest content
edly until it has perfected, through
the assistance of others, an organ
ization fully equipped to cope with
with those from such states as
Texas, Colorado, Utah and others
where the wealth contained in the
industry itself is not much in
excess of that found on the rang
ing ground of Oregon.
The throwing open to entry of
thousands of acres of timber and
agricultural lands, in this portion
of the state, will in all probability
bring thousands of people into
Northern Lake county during the
coming summer. The only valu
able tracts of land that have been
restored to entry out of the Warner
Mountain withdrawl. lie in the
northern part of Lake and Klam
ath counties, and the southern
part of Crook. There are two great
drawing cards now open for Central
Oregon, that will cause perhaps
one of the greatest rushes in the
history of the state. Timber men
are now located on the lands await
ing the time when the government
will begin to accept filings, and a
number of people will endeavor to
head off the scrippers by squatter
rights, which is believed will en
title them to first say. The desert
lands in this locality are already
leing filed on by honiesteaders,who
exect to develop for themselves
homes in a country that one time
was considered worthless. It is
only a matter of a very ,short time
until the great desert will be taken
out of a wilderness, and made the
foremost farming belt of the great
western country. The Government
Reclamation Service will undoubt
edly begin operation on the Odell
irrigation project some time dur
ing the present year. This canal
well cover a large portion of the
desert northeast of Silver Lake
which is considered the most valu
able body of land awaiting irrigat
ion now under consideration by
the Government. We hope to gee
the government take a hold of this
great irrigation scheme, which is
without question practicable from
every standpoint. Silver Lake

Hall, Saturday, March 18th.
There is a new automible in
town, which some term the "red
devil". It was brought from Port
land last night, by S. B. Kelley
who is agent for the machine.which
is a model E 1905 White. It is a
monster weighing 2000 pounds and
of 15-horse power, with compound
steam engine and a speed of seven
ty miles. Some time ago this same
machine made the Eagle Rock hill
climb in Rhode Island, which has
a twelve per cent grade and is a
mile long, in eighty three seconds.
Tomorrow Mr Kelley will take a
party consisting of L. E. Crowe,
Grant Mavs and Dr. J. Reuter to
Wasco. He may go on to Shaniko
and later will try the new Bend
road. On Saturday he will return
to Portland with his machine.
Dalles Chronicle.
Over 100 men, who have been
employed on the canal work by
the Deschutes Irrigation & Power
company, quit work the first of
the week because a cut had been
made in their wages. Heretofore
the company has been paying 14.75
per day for teams and $2.25 per
day for labor. The former wage
was reduced 75 cents and dav
laborers were reduced to $1.75.
The men refused to stand for the
reduction and stopped work. A
report was circulated about town
yesterday that a strike was in
progress at Bend and that some
serious clashes had occurred, but
this was probably due to the fact
that Sheriff Smith had left-in the
morning to keep an eye on a
package containing $20,000 which
was sent over to pay wages. There
had been no trouble and the com
pany does not expect any. The
vacant places on the pay roll will
in all probability be filled soon by
others.

Air Will Soon Be FuU of Music
The question of Priueville having n.
band n real live band that can
make music and take all the sorrow
out of the neighborhood, is no longer
a quest iMi, but a thriving reality.
That Is, the band part of it is. the,
music is still forthcoming.
A permanent organization of the
Priueville Military Band wan effected
at a meeting held in the council
chamlier Monday evening and when
the first toots start the echoes to
rolling then- will lie twenty six piece
to lend their assistance. The busi
ness men in the city have sul
m-rtUil liberally to the organization
and everything is running along in
apple pie shajK'. Prof. Henry prom
ises that Inside of three months tlu
midnight serenade of the feline fami
ly will Ik' put out of commission and
everyone is hoping that his prophecy
w ill come true. The cats have lcen
bothersome of late.
The management of the band has
lieen placed in the hands of a board
of directors composed of C. M. Flkins,
Adrain Crooks. C. I. Winnek and M.
E. Brink and with such good busi
ness heads back of the enterprise,
success is assured from the start.
IhememlMTs of the band for the
most part are musicians to legin
with wiio have torn off yards nnd
yards of music in years past and it
will not take long now liefore there
will lie harmony and unison In all
the sounds that emanate from the
pract ice rooms.
With the band on the highway to
a musical success it is ii to the city
to improve its park and phu-ea band
stand in the center for the exclusive
use of the boys who are putting in
their time ami money at present to
furnish a little entertainment and
diversion for the long summer eve
nings. To buy a phre of furniture
because it is cheap is not

Notice Regarding Examinations.
In order that there lie no misun
derstanding concerning written ex
aminations for teacher's temporary
certificates or iwrniit, the following
rules are here given:
1 Applicants must make the aver
age required for a .'Ird grade certifi
cate and not fall Im-Iow m In any one
branch.
2 The rules and regulations' for
regular examinations apply to ex
aminations for permits.
' An old list of questions, will lie
submitted where practicable, other
wise questions as near analogous lis
possible.
4 Hereafter no examiutii'! for
permit will be given unless the appli
cant has a school engaged should he
or she succeed in passing.
The first three of the above rules
have been used by the County Sup't
since last nutinim and have been ex
plained to and understood by per
sons taking examinations if not by
others, and we can see no good rea
son why they should le changed. If
an old experienced teacher is prohibi
ted from teaching for a period of at
least fi mouths because he or she fails
to come up to the standard required
either in general average or any one
branch, why should an inexperienced
person be allowed to undertake
teaching when he or she fails to reach
the standard. It haa been necessary
to add Bole 4 on account of the iiuui-
ler of applicants that w Ish to try for
a IHTUlit. j
Page l--'. Oregon School l.aw.j
reads: " V temporary permit may lie'
l-isued by the County Sup't III case of,
necessity," etc. Then- would lie iio '
necessity w here the applicant does
not have a school engaged. I
Also on the same page we Had the
following: "No ktiuU shall U Issued
to any )erson not coining within the
provisions of this proviso except on
a written examination equivalent to
that required for a third grade cer
tiiloale." If equivalent, the exami
nation surely must le under the
same rules and regulatiousand upon
ana logons quest ions.
