HERO OF 335 CATTLE, OWNED BY WHITMAN COUNTY CATTLE MEN.
NORTH YAKIMA. Wash., Jan. 26.
(Special.) The committee appointed
at the meeting held at Zlllah last week
to take initial steps toward organizing
a company to build an electric line
from North Yakima, via Parker and
Zlllah, to Granger, a distance of T2
miles, has begun the work of forming
& joint stock company for that pur
pose. Leading citizens of the Yakima
country compose the committee. They
are W. N. Granger, H. H. Lombard,
J. H. Thomas. A. P. "Wilcox, F. G.
Page, George P. Eaton and C. H. Put
nam. The first duty of this committee is to
confer with the officials of the Ya
kima Valley Transportation Company,
three miles of whose line is already
in operation out of North Yakima, to
ascertain if that company is willing to
undertake the construction of the pro
posed line to Granger this year.
Should the committee fail In that pur
pose, it will proceed to the organiza
tion of a company to build the line.
The proposed North Yakima-Granger"
road will pass centrally through one
of the oldest and best developed fruit
districts in the Yakima country. Last
year it shipped about 400 . carloads of
fruit to outside markets. This year
the output, it is estimated on the basis
of an average season, will nearly
double that by reason of the great
acreage of new orchards coming into
full bearing in 1908.
Orchardists and other property own
ers along the proposed line down the
valley to Granger extendei the offer
at the Zlllah meeting to donate the
right of way and grade the roadbed
for the company that will furnish the
steel, lay the track, stock the road and
operate it. Should the Yakima Valley
Transportation Company fall to take
advantage of this offer, it was devel
oped at the Zlllah meeting that prob
ably $100,000 can be raised Immediate
ly for that purpose.
Portland. Seattle,. Tacoma, Salt Lake
City, St. Paul and Minneapolis inter
ests, in addition to those of this dis
trict, were represented at the Zillah
meeting.
DEVELOPING TAKTMA MIXES
Jtlch Diggings Found in East Selah

NORTH YAKIMA. Wash., Jan. 26.
(Special.) Abrams brothers, experienced
miners, from the Sumpter district in Ore
gon, who located claims on a quartz
fCK!f 'i--vlug gold and sliver in East
F -tnh Yai,c", about 12 miles from this
rliy all, it two months ago, b&ve com
jiitvi tlif'r assessment work and, en
couraged by the showing made In assays
of the rock obtained, are sinking a shaft
on the ledge In further exploration of its
depth and richness. The ledge has been
traced on the surface for a distance of
two miles into the valley, where the
quartz was originally discovered.
The formation is more attractive than
that of the Prairie Diggings mine in
John Day Valley, Oregon, where exten
sive jnlllmg operations have been in
progress for years. The Selah Valley
ledge was located several years ago by
local claimants, but no work of Investi
gation was done at that time. The de
velopment of Abrams Brothers' work is
being watched with more than ordinary
interest.
FINISH NEW POWER PLANT
New Station Is Practically Ready for
Operation.
NORTH YAKIMA, Wash., Jan. 28.
(Special.) Work of installing machin
ery in the Immense power plant of the
Hanford Irrigation & Power Company,
a Seattle corporation, of which Mana
ger W. R. Rust, of the Tacoma Smelt
ing Company, is president, is nearly
completed. It will have 20,000 horse
power, and is capable of later develop
ing 400.000 horsepower. It is located
at Priest Rapids, on the Columbia Riv
er, east of this city, and is believed to
lie the largest electric power plant in
she state.
The canal to irrigate 16,000 acres of
land will begin its service to that acre
age on April 1. The work is practical
ly done. It was constructed with a
view to Irrigating another 16,000 acres,
with a small additional expenditure,
next year. .
This company has also completed a
Humping station at Coyote Rapids, on
the Columbia River, 20 miles below
i'rlrst Rapids, and has already at
tached the wire for the transmission
' power from the Priest Rapids plant
to this station, where the water will
le lifted 50 feet and turned into a sec
ond canal, called the high-line ditch,
which will water 20.000 additional
acres. This contract will be completed
in one year.
PLANT TREES AT ETTGENE
I
Citizens Will Beautify Principal
i Residence Streets.
EUGENH Or., Jan. 26. (Special.) One
tif the most Important things undertaken
ty the ctlzens of the outlying residence
ejections of Eugene in the shape of civic
improvement, has been planned by the
people of East Eugene or Falrmount.
Along all the principal streets leading
toward the city park, trees are to be
planted at once on both sides. Different
varieties will be put In. Among those
already decided upon are the English
walnut, elm and Royal Ann cherry.
The streets that have not already been
gravelled will be finished as early as pos
sible and the streets will be Improved in
every way. Fairmount is the best platted
part of the city, the streets being very
wide and carefully laid out, and it is the
hope of the residents to make the drive
ways that lead from the University of
Oregon campus to Hendricks Park, an
attractive part of the city, where visitors
may be taken st all seasons of the year.

Mine Makes Good Showing.
GOLD HILL, Or., Jan. 26. (Special.)
The old Hinkle Mine on Stordine Creek
Is now producing good ore. This property
was relocated by Carter Brothers of this
place three years ago. Since then they
have done considerable . development
work on the property. Recent work has
disclosed a very promising" pay shoot of
free milling ore. A test lot of some.,20
tons Is now being run through - lie
Buman mill or Sardine Creek. From the
appearance of the plates it Is estimated
this ore will mill from $2 to 2o per ton
in free gold.
ORATORIO FILLS THE TAYLOR
STREET CHURCH.
Special Chorus, Assisted by Orches
tra, Singj Handel's Famous
Religious Composition.
The Taylor-street Methodist Church
was crowded to the limit yesterday morn
ing, many who could not find standing
room within the doors taking their places
In the entrance and on the stairs, and
many others being turned away, when
the choir of 46 voices repeated Handel's
'Messiah' which was rendered with such
good effect Christmas. The choir was
assisted by an orchestra of 15 pieces,
Mrs. Warren E. ,Thomas presiding at the
organ, and the entire musical programme
being under the leadership of Professor
W. H. Boyer.
Miss Evelyn Hurley, the contralto solo
ist, was In excellent voice, and her ren
dering of "He Shall Feed His Flock"
was with fine effect. The solos of Mrs.
E. S. Miller, soprano; Charles Cutter
basso, and E. C. Davis, tenor, were also
much appreciated.
The closing anthem, the 'Hallelujah
Chorus," was rendered after the pastor.
Dr. Benjamin Young, had given a sht t
discourse on "The Theme of Handel's
Messiah." He referred to Handel's deep
sense of the agony which Christ endured
on the cross, and mentioned the historical
fact that the original manuscript of the
great oratorio was stained with the tears
of the famed composer. Dr. Young also
made reference of the theme, which Is
drawn from Isaiah's prophecy of Christ.
Iast night' Mrs. Rose Bloch Bauer, as
sisted by the choir, rendered "When Thou
Comest," from Rossini's Stabat Mater.
This was Mrs. Bloch Bauer's first public
effort for nearly a year, except her sink
ing In the quartet at the Temple Beth
Israel, as her health would not permit
her to attempt it. Miss Cornelia Barker
rendered with expression Shubert's "Ave
Maria," and the choir sang "By Baby
lon's Wave," of which Gounod Is the
author.
Dr. Young's subject last night was "The
Hand and the Loaf."
His text was Matthew xv:43: "How
many loaves have ye?" this being the
question Christ asked his disciples
when they told him that the multitude
was without food. Dr. Young said that
In the fact that Christ used the little
food at hand and Increased it. instead
of Ignoring it and creating other food,
we find a divine economy.
"The solution of the problem of our
modern life," said Dr. Young7 "will
come only as we bring that life and
place it in the Christ hand. Whether
you are an Anarchist in a theotretical
sense, or a Socialist, or whatever you
may be, that Is the only way society
can be transformed. "Only the golden
rule of Christ can bring the golden age
of man.' We must use the stock of pro
visions we have at hand, and when we
are at our extremity, we must call upon
God. He will increase it. As the crude
clay Is transformed in the hand of the
potter, as the breath of life Is breathed
upon the cold marble by the masterful
conception and skill of the sculptor,
and as the canvas is made to glow with
bright tints until our hearts Are
stirred by the beauty into which the
artist has transformed what is some
times called 'dirty paint.' so should we
bring the best that we have to Christ,
though it be but little, and allow him

Contractor Suggests Improvements
in Construction to- Govern-.
ment Engineers.
NORTH YAKIMA, Wash., Jan. 26.
(Special.) Theodore Weisberger,
whose contracts on the construction of
the Tieton canal for the Federal Gov
ernment amounts to $275,000, has asked
that the specifications be changed in
that contract covering the work of
making the concrete shapes for the lin
ing of the canal. The specifications
in the present contract require the
shapes to be two feet wide and so
formed as to fit the curves as well as
the straight walls of the canal. The
Vnion of these shapes makes a seam
necessary every two feet. It has been
determined by. Contractor Weisberger
to work out in our hearts this modern
day mircle."
PREACHES ON CHILD LABOR
Rev. Mr. Corby Deplores Enslave
ment of Children.
In the course of his talk on "Children
and Work" at the .Unlversallst Church
of the Good Tidings, last nisht. Rev.
James D. Corby said:
There are practically 2.000.000 children
In the United States engaged In gainful oc
cupations. 1 believe In work for children,
work for head and hand. Not work for six
days In the week for ten or more hours a
day, but toil that shall fit the boy and girl
for life more abundant. . We are In the
era of Industrial instability, all trades are
In a state of flux. The engine of a decade
ago has gone o the scrap pile and an elec
tric device now does the work, the tools of
a past generation are as obsolete as a set
of moulding planes. Our children need not
so much one trade as the combination of
qualities which will enable them to turn
with facility from one occupation to an
other as each in turn is supplanted through
Industrial evolution.
Our children need to be trained so that
the invention of a new machine will not
drive them out of emDloyment to despair
and suicide. The linotype threw many
printers out of work, and what befell them
is facing the locomotive engineers; the
motorman touches a button and the motor
does the rest.
The certainty that the evolution of ma
chinery narrovs our men so that no one
trade alone is really to be depended on
makes it imperative that children be

and other engineers that these seams
will contribute largely to innumerable
leaks In the big ditch, entailing much
loss of water and serious damage by
flood in the cultivated area below the
canal. The Water Users' Association,
formed by those who own lands and
water rights under the Tieton canal,
favors Contractor Weisberger's plan
for a change in the specifications of
that contract in such a manner as will
enable him to make the lining or the
canal as nearly of one piece as prac
ticable. The United States reclamation bu
reau is not disposed to make the re
quested change without a full investi
gation of the matter and an expres
sion from all of those concerned in
the service of the canal when com
pleted. With that end In view, a petition,
setting forth in much volume the de
tails of both theories as to what the
canal lining should be. Is being pre
pared. This will be submitted to all of
the water users under the canal for
signatures, after which it will be
transmitted to the Federal reclama
tion bureau at Washington in the
hope that It may Influence bureau of
ficials to favor the change suggested.

affords is headed In the right direction.
If existence is limited to toiling at such
routine tasks as wrapping candy, or carry
ing boards to the pile, or pasting labels,
we ought to see that the conditions under
which the work Is carried on are as kindly
and comfortable as possible. But, believing
that life is more than meat, we ought to
dedicate ourselves to the cause of the child,
that a child from the tenement or from
the laborer's family shall be educated so
as to keep pace with the Improvements In
methods, and above all that his mind shall
be o furntxhed that he shall be more
than a cog on the Industrial wheel. Like
wise the child from the home of wealth
should be educated so that body and mind
become the world's helpers Instead of being
a parasite. The care of our boys and girls
depends on a new and higher appreciation
of their value to society and to God. Jesus
stamped their economic value when he de
cleared "Of such is the kingdom of
heaven."

FOUR DENOMINATION'S ACT IN
HARMONY.
First Steps Taken to Effect Closer
Relations Between Oregon
Congregations.
In Portland a movement has been start
ed, out of which it is hoped the organic
union of the Evar.gelical Association, the
United Evangelical, United Brethren and
Methodist Protestant Churches will be
effected. Definite steps were taken dur
ing the past week by the Evangelical
Ministerial Association and the Men's
Club of the First United Brethren
Church. Rev. A. A. Winter, pastor of
the First United Evangelical Church,
East Tenth street, and president of the
Evangelical Association of Portland,
spoke yesterday morning on "The Larger
Church Union. He said that men some
times build better than they know, which
seems true of church federation. He
referred to the organic union of the two
branches of the Evangelical denomina
tion, and then said that the way seems
to be opening for the organic union of
four denominations. Taking up the sub
ject. Rev. Mr. Winter said:
Personally I heartily Indorse this larger
vision of church union, and I believe you do.
The time has vurely come for the unifying of
the forces that make for peace and righteous
ness upon the earth. As far as possible the
various branches of each denomination should
be brought together, and with these other
churches, which are so nearly like them. By
thus getting together, many of our cities and
smaller towns would not be over-churched,
and our mission fields and rural districts no
longer be neglected for want of men and
means. It should not be considered an un--reasonable
and impossible undertaking to
un lte the Presbyterian and Congregational
churches the Baptists and the Christian, sp
much bemg common between them. Likewise
as In the union In which we are personally in
terested. "With these four churches, tbe articles
of faith, manner and form of worship and
church policy are practically the same.
The Oregon conferences of the Evangelical
and the United Evangelical churches have, for
the. past two years, exchanged fraternal dele
gates at annual conference sessions.
A union rally of all our congregations In
Portland and vicinity was held last Summer
and similar rallies have been held in the East
during the past year.
The general conference of the Evangelical
Association, at its recent session, held In
Milwaukee, Wis., appointed a commission with
power to take steps looking toward the re
union of our churches.
Then the meeting on January 21 at the
United Brethren Church under the Men's Club
of that church, where 11 - congregations were
represented and the following resolution was
adopted : " ' ,
"Resolved, That the pastors and laymen rep
resenting 11 local churches gathered under the
auspices of the Men's Club at the First United
Brethren Church, Tuesday. January 21, ex
press to our respective general conferences
our desire for the organic union of the Evan
gelical Association, United Evangelical, United
Brethren and Methodist Protestant churcles.'
This Is the first local step toward the union
of the four churches. Memorials will likely
be sent to the general conferences of our
respective churches and a commission ap
pointed by each to take up together the ques
tion of organic union.
In the meantime we propose to federate as
far as possible In our work on this Coast.
At the February meeting of the Evangelical
Association of Portland we will discuss some
important questions pertaining to united ef
fort in the development of our work. Four
considerations may be carried by recommen
dation from the Ministerial Association to our
annual Oregon Conferences' sessions this
Spring as follows:
VixsL That our churches In th cities and
BOTTLED AT THE SPRINGS,
towns shall co-operate as far as possible.
Second That where members of one church
move to a place where their own denomina
tion is not represented, and the other denom
ination is, as ministers we will use our In
fluence to have them affiliate with the other
denomination.
Third That next year we hold our Bible
conference, campmeetlng and conference con
ventions together on the beautiful camp
ground of the Evangelical Association at Jen
nings Lodge on the Oregon City Blectric Rail
way. Fourth "Whereas, the United Evangelical
Church maintains a higher Institution of learn
ing, viz: Dallas College, at Dallas. Or., and
the Evangelical Association has no institu
tion of this kind on the Coast;
.Resolved, That the Evangelical Church as a
conference indorse Dallas College, and as far
as possible Interest their people in the In
stitution. Resolved, That the United Evangelical Con
ference give the Evangelical Association an
official representation on the board of trus
tees of tills college.
The spirit of union in the hearts of our
people In the West is much stronger than in
the East. In the East, where the congrega
tions are large and they have magnificent
church buildings, they give this question lit
tle or no thought. It Is hard to get them to
see the advantage this union would be In our
frontier work. It is my opinion this large
union of the four churches would make a
stronger appeal to the conservative parties on
both sides than the union of two branches of
our own church. ,May God speed the day
when we shall be one.
At the United Brethren Church, . on
East Morrison street, yesterday, the fol
lowing resolution was adopted:
Resolved. By the First United Brethren
Church of Portland, that we heartily concur
In the movement for the organic union of
the four denominations. United Brethren.
Evangelical Association, United Evangelical
and Methodist Protestant, and urge our re
spective general conferences to take action
looking to this union.
The Men's Club of the First United
Brethren Church will undertake to have
similar resolutions adopted by all the
churches of the four denominations In
Oregon.

WANTS PARDON FOR DEED
Soldier Shoots Off Fingers to De
fraud Gets Converted,. Repents.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, Jan. 26. The attention of Presi
dent Roosevelt has been called to the
pathetic case of a repentant sinner re
siding In Portland, a former member of
the United States Army, wno, having de
frauded the Government out of a small
sum of money, has come to realize the
error of his way, and wants to be for
given. The name of the ex-soldier is
withheld, as it is not probable steps will
be taken to prosecute him for his past
wrong. His story is as Interesting as it
i3 unusual, and has appealed to those
acquainted with the circumstances.
This soldier, yet In the prime of life,
as years are reckoned, was unfortunate
In being assigned to a lonely post. Being
of a morose disposition, he fell to brood
ing, and finally determined to take his
life by his own hand, and end his sup
posed suffering. But he communicated
to his brother his purpose to commit sui
cide, and the brother, acting promptly,
dissuaded him from his rash course, tell
ing him his enlistment would not last
forever and that brighter days were
awaiting him.
Nevertheless, the soldier was impatient.
He could not wait for the expiration of
his enlistment. He must get out of the
service by fair means or foul. It could
not be accomplished by fair means, so
he determined . literally to defraud the
Government or his" services. While at
gun practice one day, this soldier drew
his revolver, and grasping It in his left
hand, deliberately shot off the first two
fingers of his right hand the "trigger
finger" and the one next. Minus these
fingers he could not handle a rifle, and
was Incapacitated for duty. But he
did not confess to having wrought his
own disfigurement; he reported that his
fingers were shot off accidently. Ha
was thereupon treated by the Army
surgeons, and subsequently granted a
discharge from the service "for iiicapac
Hv." Following his discharge, his record be
ing clear, he made application for pen
sion on the ground that he had sustained
the loss of two fingers in the performance ,
of his duty as a soldier. The record
showed the loss due to "accident during
gun practice." so the pension claim was
allowed at the rate of is per month. This
pension was regularly drawn until the
soldier had received, and spent, $168.
He then fell In with workers of the
Salvation Army, attended their meetings,
them his crime against the government.
It was at their suggestion that he wrote
a Congressman from an Eastern state,
from which he had been appointed, and
besought his aid in securing his pardon
for -his crime. The case is now under
consideration. The pensioner is practic
ally destitute; has no funds and no
regular employment, and Is unable to
repay what he improperly received in
the way of pension. But he has seen the
error of his way, and hopes the big gov
ernment will overlook its small loss and
grant him Immunity.
