j5tte Committee Will Meet Todar to
Select n Successor to Shoup on
iUdXHtionnl Committee.
BOISE, Idaho, Nov. 21 Tomorrow -will
see the opening of "what may be a very
pretty fight for political supremacy In
the RejMjblleap. ranks of this state. At
that time a meeting- Is to be held of the
Republican State Central Committee,
called lor the purpose of electing a suc
cessor on the Republican National Com
mittee to ox-Senator George L. Shoup.
It Is Intimated that the man who goes
oh that committee will be "the" political
power of the state. Senator Shoup "was
the man of the party, though It was not
by all means because of the position he
4reM, but greatly on account of ils
ability.
There are many candidates for the po
sition, including Vf. E. Borah, "W. B.
Heyburn, Prank R. Gooding. L. L. Orms
by and others. The two first named are
the most prominent, end It Is the general
opinion that one will, be successful. If
the deughty lawyer from the Coeur
QAiones uiuage Jieyourn) tries very
2rd he Is more than likely to be elected
without trouble, as throughout the -state
. $e is well taiown and everywhere vad
"fired. On the other hand, should he not
C&tejso much, Mr. Borah would not have
a walk-oveO because there is conslder
abU,feeling against him. He Is known
to bjek first-class lawyer one of the
pest !iva-the "West, and he has many very
warm friends, but there Is a faction that
"will traits ,best to knife him to defeat.
The chairman of the state committee,
Frank R. Gooding does not -stand so
,Eood a chance as some of his Irlends
think, thought of course, there are all
kinds of possibilities in politics. If, how
ever, the plum flpes not go to Heyburn
or Borah, the most, astute politicians say
.that Oraieby Is the man. He Is strong
Sn many ways, a ell-known, stanch
Republican, a stockman of great promi
nence, and a man -tfljose interest in
public affairs la constant. He was a
member of the last Republican National
Convention, and Is very well-known po
litically throughout the intermountaln
section.
Nearly every member of the state com
mittee is expected to be present at to
morrow's meeting, and Judging- by the
numbers already here there will be no
disappointment. The committee is com
posed as follows: Chairman, Frank R.
Gooding, Shoshone, of Uncoln Countyi
secretary. R. M. McCullora, Shoshone, oi
Uncoln .County; treasurer, Frank X. "Wy
man, of Boise; executive committee, R.

Rearrangement of the Service Asked
-for in Balier Coanty.
BAKER CITY, Nov. 23. There is a
movement on foot to rearrange the mail
serrice'ba some of the star routes in this
part of The state. The patrons of the post
office np Cornucopia and Eagle Volley
have asked the Postoffice Department to
abolish , the mail route from Union to
Cornucopia, and in Its place put in a
service from Union to Sparta, which would
run by Medical Springs and Sanger. A
petition is also in circulation askinjr that
Knelt Ball &t 2:90 o'clock, tomorrow X the mail route from Bs3su City to Bparta
be extended to Cornucopia via Carson,
thus giving the residents of Eagle Valley,
Carson and Cornucopia a daily mall from
Baker City and from Union. The new
rqute from this city would serve at least
6000 people from 10 different offices. Post
Route Inspector F. W. Vallle, who has
been looking Into the matter, Is of the
opinion that the servlceshould be estab-,
llshed, and will so recommend.

Hard Rains Benefit Miners.
GRANT'S PASS , Or., Nov. 23. The
heaviest rain of the season began falling
yesterday afternoon, continuing until well
after midnight Placer miners are conse
quently happy as previous rains' had given
only a few mines sufficient water to
operate. All the cfeeeks -were running
full this morning and miners will have
no trouble In keeping' ditches full for
some lime. The indications point to a
lively Winter for the placer mines-, as
much preparatory work has been done on
a large scale and many mines have
changed, new owners In almost every
instance seeking to increase the output.
The Columbia and Lewis mine's on
Grave Creek have begun the use of pow
der In large quantities, the Lewis mine
being now. busy with a large drift into
the bank for which over a ton of powder
will be used. The Gallpe Creek mines
will employ a large force of men with
four giants under pressure of 300 to 500
feet Tle Illinois placers ln and about
Kerby and Waldo have been running for
some time.

"EAST END" AGITATION NOT REL
ISHED AT PENDLETON.
Amonnt of Taxes Paid by the Tovrns
of the County Woman's Attempt
" to Destroy Domestic Happiness.
PENDLETON, Nov. 24. Tl e announce
ment that the "eaat end," the portion of
Umatilla County at or near Milton, will
ask the Legislature of Oregon to divide
the county at the next assembly, has oc
casioned the giving out of some figures
as to the amount of taxes paid by the
county, and by towns therein, as follows:
Umatilla County's total taxation annual,
ly is $172,841 46; the town of Pendleton
pays of this $6,827 48; the town of Milton
$1302 10, Aa to relative valuations of prop
erty here and at Milton, the County As
sessor states that In so far as he has
been able to do so, he has assessed the
property upon exactly the same level, and
that there has not been any discrimina
tion against the east end.
Pendleton people continue to be sur
prised at the latest move on the part of
Milton to ask for a division of tho coun
ty, and if It be persisted In, a hdt coun7
ty division fight will be precipitated, with
important effects upon the make-up of
the coming campaign Issues.
A Pendleton Mischief-Maker.
The police furnish a copy of one of the
least objectionable of the letters written
by the unknown woman to Pendleton
wives, and it is as follows:
"My Dear Deluded Mrs. : Tou do
think so much of that husband of your,
don't you? Perhaps, If you knew how he
carried on while you were at the springs
last July yqu wouldn't be so proud of
htm. I wasn't up at the springs. JNot
much! I stayed down here to seo what
he and a lot of .those other geezers did
when they got cut loose. They didn't
do a thing1, either! I watched 'em. That
husband of yours was out after the women
every blessed night, and I can tell you
where he went, too. You wouldn't like It
much, either. But I'll fix him. Walt a
few days, and you wrlll hear more of this.
I merely write, this to kind of prepare
you for what Is to follow. I will then
name some of, those places.".
The letter was unsigned, and there was
upon It no mark that could be used as
evidence against the writer.
Teachers and Doctors.
Pendleton will entertain this week 250
teachers, who come to attend the East
ern Oregon State Teachers' Association,
and 40 physicians who will asemble to hear
a lecture by Dr. Woods Hutchinson, of
Portland, who also speaks at the Teach
ers Association. The town began to re
ceive some of the visitors, who arrived
on the trains Saturday night, and it has
been necessary to organize a committee
of entertainment to provide places where
the guests may atop.
Holding Their "Wheat.
Umatilla County wheat raisers are hold
ing for 50 cents a bushel, and during
the past week but little changed hands,
although the local price ranged above 45
cents upon several days. Pendleton buy
.ere seem to hold out some hope thaf the
price will go to the 50-cent mark before
long, although they do so in a very con
servative manner. Farmers are Inclined
to belief that 50 cents will be the locil
quotation soon, and for that reason Jew
sales are how being recorded
LOGS CARRIED AWAY. .
Effect of the Hard. Rain and Flood
at Centralia.
CENTR$LIA, Wash.. Nov. 23. On ac
count of the steady down-pour of rain
recently, the water Is higher than at any
time 'during the year. There has been
corislfl'efa'ble damage done among the
lumber mills. The H. H, Martin Lum
ber Company lpst last night aoout 1,000,
000 feet of logs, carried away by the
high water. It is. however, believed that
they can be recovered, as they are lodged"
further down the river. The Centralia
Electric and Power Company was dam
aged to the amount of about $200. The
damage was done to the mill race and
about the power house. The boom of the
CentraUt Shingle Mills Company wfl3
broken and a large number of shingle
bolts carried away by the high water.
The other mills on the rivers have suf
fered more or less from the rise In the
water, and several have shut down tem
porarily in consequence. Rain has been
falling steadily for two or three days, and
from present prospects It Is probable that
the water will be higher than for some
timo past.
Tho registration books for the coming
electldn show a good increase over past
years. Tho number registered Is 320.
Prospects are now good for another
shingle mill at Centralia. Should this one
be built, there would be five shingle mills
tributary to Centralia.
Those In a position to know say that
Centralla's prospects are good for having
a first-class brick hotel In the not dis
tant future. The Idea is to purchase one
of the large brick buildings now vacant
In North Centralia, and convert It into
a hotel. This would mako a large
and roomy-hotel conveniently near tho
depot. This building could be used in
connection with a hotel now in operation.
The Atkinson Lumber Company has an
order on hand for 115 car loads of lumber
to be shipped East, to be used in manu
facturing coal barges.

If Portland citizens would enulate the
fine example of H. W. Corbett, who gave

tennial, the proposed $SOO,00Q could be in

Under New Law Improvement "Will
Be Made in Entries So as to
Show Unpaid Taxes.
This morning a force of about 30 clerks
under direction of Harry Dyer and David
Mackle, will commence making out the
tax-roll for the year 1901. For this pur
pose the assessment roll Is copied, and
after the tax levies have all been mader
the amount of taxes against each piece
of property are calculated and extended.
The 1901 tax-roll will be arranged to con
form with the law passed at the last
session of the Legislature, and will con
tain many new features. When complet
ed it will answer for all time, and will
not have to be frequently recopled in
part in preparing the delinquent roll, as
was the case under the old system. The
new tax-roll, In order to fit the recent
statute and accomplish the results desired,
will contain many additional columns,
with the following headings:
Previous years unpaid, total tax. No.
of receipt, date of payment, amount paid
on or before April 7, 3 per cent rebate,
final payment, penalty. Interest, errors
and double assessments, delinquent Octo
ber 7, .number of receipt or certificate,
date of payment or sale, amount paid be
fore" sale, penalty and costs, interest,
errors and double assessments, amount
sold for, rate of Interest, namo of pur
chaser, address of purchaser, assigned to,
date of assignment, redeemed by, date of
redemption, number of redemption certifi
cate, certificate surrendered for cancella
tion, number of deed, date of deed, re
marks. In the column, "Previous years un
paid," the delinquent taxes for the years
1836 to 1900, inclusive, will be entered.
The taxes for the years 1888 to 1S33 have
already been brought up to date. Under
the new law a 3 per cent discount Is given
If the full amount of the taxes are paid
prior to March 15. If the first half of the
taxes ere not liquidated prior to the first
Monday In April, the taxes aU become
delinquent. Ten per cent penalty is then
added, and Interest is charged up at the
rate of 12 per cent per annum. If the
first 50 per cent of the taxes Is paid on
time, until the first Monday in October
is, allowed to pay the balance. It the
second half of the taxes Is not paid b
tho first Monday In October, the tax Is
delinquent, and Interest is charged dating
back to the first Monday In April, and 10
per cent penalty Is also added.
denomination, now split In two, having;
in this very restricted territory three,
and another on the way. This might
not seem so bad, If It wore not true that
these nine churches could all be com
fortably housed In not more than two
ordinary church buildings. What excuse
can be made for such folly? In the place
of nine or 10 struggling, feeble churches,
with half-paid pastors, and that in some
cases by hard-earned money from poor
people In the East, why not one or two
strong effective churches, holding and
teaching essential Christianity?
The business world simply laughs at
such denominational lack of sense, for it
cannot be denied that denominational
propagandlsm Is at the bottom of It,
rather than love for Christ. Nor has tho
worst been said about this miserable bus
iness. The rivalry, Jealousy and unseem
ly struggle, In the desperate efforts to
build up the Kingdom of- God, especially
in the small towns, Is all too well known
to the people themselves. What candid
pastor In these places cannot testify to
the narrow, bitter spirit, tho moral dull
ness and spiritual desolation caused by
this unnatural strife? How would it do
to put the affairs of these several com
munities Into a common trusfr. with some
man of sound business sense at the head,
his only aim being to promote good will
and right living with all? Would ho
not make speedy havoc with about four
fifths of this waste of effort? Let us by
all means have another trust.

AMUSEMENTS.
' A Trust Much Needed.
PORTLAND, Nov. 24.--To the Editor.)
The most fearful waste of money, time
and service in this country is found In
the present methods of the several re
ligious denominations, the strife and com
petition in scores of localities simply serv
ing to make the churches ridiculous. In
a village not more than 20 miles from
Portland are six different denominations,
each struggling for an existence, and de
pendent chiefly iqi its success upon the
misfortunes of the others. This la not
an Isolated case. Communities through
out this Western country of 500 population
and less will average from three to six
denominations, eking out a miserable ex
istence, with a starving pastor. They
are aH beggars; and every year thou
sands of dollars are worse than wasted
in trying to sustain these churches, for
which there Is not the slightest reason
or even rational excuse. Nor are the
country towns alone involved. In the
City of Portland, on the East Side, be
tween Morrison and Powell streets, where
there Is a narrow stretch of population
between the river on the west and the
Hawthorne and Ladd estates on the east,
are no less than nine churches, with an-
other In immediate contemplation one
