Cipher Too Many on Sheep Limit.
The attention of tho Interior Depart
ment has been called to the fact that its
limit of sheep to be allowed to graze in
the Washington forest reserve during the
coming season is Just 10 times the number
permitted last year. An investigation dis
closed the fact that the limit of 250,000
was not what was Intended, and through a
clerical error a cipher had been inserted
where it was not wanted. The number of
sheep to be admitted to the reserve east of
the divide and west of tho Stlkeen River
and Lake Chelan will be 25.000. The Mount
Rainier reserve will have 172,000 east of the
Cascade Mountains, where it had 250,000
last' year. During the past season it was
found that this reserve had been over
grazed, much to its detriment, hence tho
reduction.

Leasing; Agent.
OLYMPIA, Wash,, Feb. 2S. At a meet
ing of the State Land Commissioners to

Capitol lands arc the only state lands

landB In Eastern Washington that have
been bringing, when sold for grazing pur
poses, $2 to $3 per acre. Lately there has
been considerable demand for the lands
that are now worth about that price, but
there is also a demand from men who
desire to lease the tracts for grazing pur
poses. It Is stated that the lands become
better by allowing stock to run over them
for several years, and the lands, when
leased, brlng from 10 to 15 cents per acre

SUCCESSFUL DESIGJf OF EDGAR- M. LAZARUS.
Tho design appearing herewith for th proposed Courthouse for Morrow Coun
ty, Heppner, Or., made by Edg-arM. Lasarus, ot Portland, Or., was selected in an
open paid competition, architects competing frem all over the state. This design
was accepted by the Coupty Court In session In Heppner on the 20th Inst. The
second premium of $30 was awarded Mr. Charles Burggraff. of Albany, Or., and
the third premium of $25 to Mr. Joseph Jacobbrger, of Portland, Or. The ac
cepted design U ot French Renaissance adapted to local conditions, and the ma
terial called for, 1. e., dark-blue rock for the 'nails, with light sandstone trim
mings. The building ia M feet wide and 82 feet long, with a jail annex to ac
commodate four cells, and Is to coat, inclusive of the Improvements to the

leaso the preference. It Is expeoted that.)
the present Congress will pass a bill au
thorizing an Arid Land Commission, and f
it Is probable the results of the Investiga
tions of this commission will have some
effect on the lands In question. Tho ac
tion withdrawing the lands from sale was
done with the approval of Governor Mc
Bride, whose views were asked because
he Is chairman of the Capitol Commission
now having In charge the erection of the
Capitol annex. The Capitol grant In
Western Washington is more than ample
to secure the payment of tho Capitol
building warranty.
Commissioner Callvcrt says the leasing
of state lands, particularly in Eastern
Washington, has reached such proportions
that he will be impelled to ask the next
Legislature to authorize the appointment
of a special leasing agent to be stationed
In that section. The Income from, leased
lands, which Is now very large, he be
lieves, can be greatly Increased with the
aid of such an agent.
