W HOPE TO
GARRY UMATILLA
Prohibitionists Believe They
Can Overcome Adverse
Majority of 800.
GET RED MEN OUT TO VOTE
Indians Badly Divided on Liquor Is
ue Detectives Employed by Anti
Saloon Forces to Watch
f. for Illegal Voters.
PENDLETON, Or.. May 25. (Spe
' :!al.) Saloons or no saloons? That is
the question which is agitating the
minds of the voters of Umatilla County
today as never before, and it Is the
question which overshadows every
other in the present campaign.
Though local option petitions have
been filed in one or two separate pre
cincts, the question is to be voted upon
by the county as a whole and. while
the campaign is being waged with
more heat in some localities than in
others, the greatest efforts on the part
of the liquor interests and the antis
alike are being centered in the county
struggle.
Four years ago the question was sub
mitted to a vote of the people and at
that time the saloons won out by a
majority of 800. This time the local
option workers expect to win by a
safe majority. 'Their hopes seem to
have the stronger foundation, because
of the fact that even a large propor
tion of the saloon people admit that
they can only keep two precincts in the
wet column, and those are Pendleton
and Weston.
Detectives Employed In Campaign.
The leaders of the anti-saloon forces
say that four years ago they did not
expect to carry the county, and there
fore, did not put forth any very great
effort. This time they are leaving no
stone unturned. Speakers, posters, pam
phlets, leaflets, newspaper articles, edi
torials and half-page display advertise
ments are telling of the evils of the
liquor traffic and the benefits which
would come with prohibition.
It is also said that almost enough
voters in Pendleton alone have changed
their minds on the saloon question since
the last time, while they declare that
more than 75 per cent of the new vote
which has come from the Middle West
will be against the saloon.
The liquor interests, on the other hand,
seem to be equally as confident, and are
equally as industrious. No speakers have
yet appeared, but the newspapers are
being made use of. the county has been
flooded with literature and buildings are
plastered with glaring posters bearing
pictures and statistics from the cities and
counties In which prohibtion has been
tried.
The Pendleton branch of the Bruin De
tective Agency has also been enlisted In
the fisht by the prohibition side, and it
is reported that tlte detectives have se
cured evidence of plans made by the sa
loon pooiik' to swear In a number of
1110,,-M voters on election das'. Bach one
of tlipre votes will be contested, and it
is apparent that there will be something
doing In Umatilla County June 1.
Indians to Get Out and Vote.
The Indian vote, which has never cut
much of a figure in previous elections,
bids fair to become an important con
sideration this year. Both sides are
working It for all they are worth, and it
is estimated that In the neighborhood of
200 red men will this year exercise their
right to vote for the first time In their
lives. Kev. J. M. Cornelison, the Pres
byterian missionary on tl Umatilla Res
ervation, says he has 100 legal voters en
listed in the cause of temperance, while
on the other hand the intemperate In
llans never had such golden opportunities
to partake of the much-loved fire water.
One of the Parr boys, a member of a
notorious family of Indians, boasts that
he Is employed by the saloon forces to
stir up his people and make them believe
that If the saloons are voted out that
Pendleton will be a dead town and a "no
good place to trade."
Hot as the Senatorial campaign seems
to be in other parts of the state, it Is
compelled to take a back seat in Umatilla
County, while the country candidates are
unable to arouse any lasting enthusiasm
beyond the circle of their Immediate
friends.
COJIBIXG COVXTV FOR VOTE
Prohis Make Determined Effort to
Put Vnion in Dry Column.
LA GRANDE, Or., May 26. (Special.)
A petition of 600 signatures has been
filed with the County Clerk which places
the liquor question before the voters of
Union County as a whole. It also in
cludes all the Incorporated towns. Friends
nnd promoters of the "dry" county move
ment have taken up the battle with more
fplrlt and vim than perhaps any other
county In the state. All the lcRal matters
have been attended to, all in due time,
and last night this city saw the inaugura
tion of a campaign which will be fought
to the finish when the ballot boxes are
closed on the night of June 1.
The county has heard of the local op
tion before, in the was- of precinct cam
paigns. Two years ago various precincts
voted on the question individually, and
many of those who took action at all.
went dry. This Spring, however, the
movement has gained a better foothold,
and the outlook now. gathered from care
ful canvass of those interested, is that
Union County is going dry in June.
The battle has been carried to remote
corners of the county and speakers sent
into the country precincts to take the
slump for prohibition.

Barbecue to Sailors and Banqnet to
Officers Are Day's Features
at Seattle.
SEATTLE, May 25. A fleet of excur
sion launches plied busily all day carry
ing cargoes - of holiday - attired visitors
to and from the vessels of the Atlantic
fleet anchored in Smith's Cove,
Naturally the flagship, which was lying
at the head of the line, was the chief ob
ject of interest, and & view of Rear-Admiral
Sperry and hte quarters were
eagerly sought. This privilege was ac
corded only to personal friends and offi
cial visitors, however. For the remaining
vessels no partiality was shown. .
Admiral Sperry was a-very busy man,
constantly going from his desk to his
reception-room. Owing to the press of of
ficial business, he was unable to attend
the barbecue and athletic sports for the
sailors.
Early in the day the Ohio was de
tached from the fleet and sailed to the
Navy-yard at Bremerton, where she will
take stores aboard preparatory to her
return to San Francisco to be docked.
At Woodland Park the sailors were en
tertained with a barbecue and athletic
sports. The wives and daughters of the
officers of the fleet were the guests of
honor at the Rainier Club, at a reception
given by the society women of the city.
Thousands of school children visited and
overran the warships without a single
misshap.
Tonight at the Rainier Club Rear-Ad-miray
Sperry and his senior officers were
entertained at one of the most elaborate
banquets ever given in Seattle. The spa
cious and beautiful clubrooms and dining-room
were artistically decorated and
the menu was a lengthy one.
From a spectacular point of view tomor
row will be another big day in the fleet's
sojourn. Six thousand men will be landed
from the ships, and, attended by artillery
from Fort Lawton, will march through
the principal streets of the city. Special
trains are bringing in many thousands
rfom outside points to view the pageant.

Bullet Enters Head, Kill- .

TRAGEDY AT ST. HELENS
George Barger, Knowing His Boy
Had Left Home, Fires Into tlie
Reeds Where He Supposes
Bird Should Be.
ST. HELENS, Or., May 25. (Special.)
Mistaking his 12-year-old son. Gordon
Roy. for a crane. . George Barger sent a
bullet crashing through the boy's head,
killing him instantly. The tragedy hap
pened at 7 o'clock Sunday evening, at a
point on Scappoose Bay, a mile and a
half from here.
Mr. and Mrs. Barger, who live on a
houseboat near St. Helens, were visiting
John Simeon, a crawflsher. The boy
had gone ashore to play, and the father
noticed a crane flying over, and, think
ing It Jiad alighted In a small lake, took
down a rifle and started after it. When
within about 60 yards of the water he
saw what he thought to be the crane, and
Immediately fired. Going to the spot he
was horrified to find that he had shot
his son, the bullet entering the back of
the head, about ene and a half inches
back of and above the right ear, and
coming out of the forehead about one and
a half Inches above the right eye.
Father at Once Calls Coroner.
Barger immediately went to Simeon's
houseboat .and notified his wife, and,
with Simeon, they returned to the body.
Then, apparently in compliance with
what seems to be a general belief that
under such circumstances a body must
not be removed until It has been viewed
by the Coroner, he went to the house of
M-. D. Green, who came to St. Helens
for Coroner Cliff, upon whose orders
the body was taken home.
This (Monday) morning, a Coroner's
Jury was summoned, and the Inquest
held. Barger s testimony was as follows:
Father's Story of Tragedy.
"As near as I can tell, it was about 7
o'clock P. M. Sunday, May 24. My wife,
myself and Roy were up at Simeon's.
We had lunch there with Mr. Simeon,
and after lunch my wife walked to the
door and saw a crane flying toward the
lake. Roy had gone out of the house
about ten minutes previous. The crane
flew down toward the lake and I took the
rifle and went down there. I slipped in
through the brush to where I could see
the water, and I saw what I took to be
the crane. I dropped down on one knee
to keep out of sight, and Just as I
thought the crane raised up. I fired. I
went down- and found Roy shot through
the head."
Jury Says Father Was Careless.
The Coroner's Jury found the following
verdict:
"First That death was caused by a
gunshot wound from a 10-25 rifle. In
the hand of his father, George Barker;
second That said wound was inflicted
under the impression that he (George
Barger) was firing at a crane: third
That, while sympathizing with Mr. Bar
ger. and recognizing that there was no
trace of intentional wrongdoing, we yet
believe there was not sufficient caution
shown, and so find."
THIEF RETURNS BIG DRAFT

LUCKY TO LOSE ONLY" $81.
Finder of Wallet Keeps Cash, but
Sends Back Passes and Checks
Calling for $1756.
SEATTLE, Wash., May 26. (Spe

negro, while collecting mail last even
ing, recovered from a letter box at
Sixth avenue and Columbia street the
wallet stolen from F. B. Clarke, presi
dent of the Spokane. Portland & Seat

street car Saturday evening.
The thief,, realising that the checks,
drafts and railroad passes were of no
use to him, abstracted the money and
took this means of returning the
papers and the passes. Clarke had an
nounced yesterday that he would allow
the thief to keep the money, which
amounted to $81, and would ask no
questions if the negotiable papers and
the 16 railroad paeses were returned
to him.

he turned it-over to Superintendent of
City Mall Delivery Charles Lynch and
the latter at once recognized It as the
property of the" man from Spokane

WOMAN'S WORK
LYDIA E. PINKHAM
Nature and a woman's work com
bined have produced the grandest
remedy for woman's il3 that the
world'has ever known.
In the good old-fashioned days of
our grandmothers they relied upon
the roots and herbs of the field to
cure disease and mitigate suffering.
The Indians on our "Western
Plains to-day can produce roots and
herbs for every ailment, and cure
diseases that baffle the most, skilled
physicians who have spent years in
the study of drugs.
From the roots cud herbs of the
field Lydia E. Pinkham more than
thirty years ago gave to the wemen
of the world a remedy for their pe
culiar ills, more potent and effica
cious than any combination of drugs.
Lydia E. Pinliham's Vegetable
Compound is now recognized as the
standard remedy for woman's ills.
Mrs. Bertha Muff, of 515 2tf.C St.,
Louisiana, Mo., writes :
" Complete restoration to health
means so much to me that for the sake
of other suffering- women I am willing
to make my troubles public.
"For twelve years I had been suffer
ing with the worst forms of female ills.
During- that time I had eleven different
physicians without help. No tongue
can tell what I suffered, and at times I
could hardly walk. About two years
ago 1 wrote Mrs. finkham lor advice.
I followed it, and can truly say that
Lydia B. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound and Mrs. Pinkham's advice re
stored health and strength. It is
worth mountains of gold to suffering
women.
What Lvdia E. Pinkham's Vege
table Compound did for Mrs. Muff,
it will do for other suffering womenJ
of the fact. The latter called for ti
package and receipted for it this
morning. Clarke says he is entirely
satisfied with the way things panned
out. The checks and drafts call for
1,756.
CAKE TOURS UNION COUNTY
Ovation Given Him Greater Thau
That Accorded Chamberlain.
LA GRANDE, Or., May 25. (Special. )
Hon. H. M. Cake, accompanied by 20
leading Republicans of Union County,
has toured the north, end of the valley
today, reaching Elgin in time to address
a large audience there. At Perry this
morning, in the round-house here early
in the day, at Island City, Imbler, Alicel
and SummerviUe, the Republican candi
date spread his gospel. HU ovations
are greater than those which were ac
corded Chamberlain. Large crowds hear
him in the day time. He is due to reach
La Grande tomorrow night at 7:30, when
all Republicans of the city are planning
on hearing the speaker.
Cake urges his Democratic opponents
to give a single reason of merit why this
state should be turned over to the Demo
cracy in this Presidential year.
"Shall we, a state that gave President
Roosevelt a majority of 45,000, repudiate
his administration by sounding the first
Democratic victory. The Republican party
has always and does still stand for the
best there is in citizenship, the best there
is in principles and policies, so why is it
we are urged to turn over this state?
"Is it because we believe in the
principles and past of the Democratic
party. 'But, we have abandoned party,'
I ara told, 'vote for the man. And who
tells you that You hear It from the
Democrats, and why? No one objects to
voting for the man so long as he rep
resents the policies and principles of
government we believe in, for, it is only
by being a member of such a party can
hs accomplish results in a Republican
Senate for this state."
Democrats Can't Stand Dry Plank.
SPOKANE, ray 25.-J3r. P. S. Byrne,
twice Mayor of Spokane, now a prominent
aspirant for the Democratic nomination
for Governor, has repudiated the state
convention's declaration in favor of pro
hibition and is planning a platform of his
own which may declare openly for "per
sonal liberty."
