c THE MORNING OREGOMAX, ITJESDAY OCTOBER -20,' 1909. ., SURVEYING PARTY STIRS PENDLETON Sumor Says New Line Will Be Built in Umatilla County. ENGINEERS KEEP SILENCE 5. C. Martin, of O. It. & -V, nt Head of Camp Gossips Think Line May Run Birch Crook to Hepp ncr or rnto Grant County. PEXDLETOX. Or.. Oct. S.-(3pecIal.) Myetery shrouds the party of railroad en. glneern, establishing a permanent ramp four miles west of Pendleton on the Uma tilla River at the Junction of the Pilot Rock branch with the main line of the O. R- & N. One fhember of the party came to Pendleton this morning to secure lumber and other supplies for his camp, but an air ot secrecy characterized his movements and he even refused to divulge his name. Later it was ascertained that this man was S. C. Martin and that he is in the employ of the O. R- & X. It developed that all his camp equipment and sup plies had been shirred to this city and because there was no car available to take them ha.-k to the site of their camp, he was compelled to have them hauled down the river in wagons. There an' IS or 14 men in the pary. Local raiTroad men profess to know nothing about the surveyors or their purpose. Many theories have been advanced to account for the presence of the party, but none are satisfactory. One rumor baa it that the railroad la merely prepar ing to straighten and shorten the road down the Umatilla River and incidentally eliminate the famous Imrse-shoe curve. If this were true there would be no ex cuse for secrecy, and there are many places where the camp miKht have been more advantageously located. One of the most persistent theories la that the old scheme to build a road across the country from the mouth of Birch Creek to Hoppner. has been revived. If this line shotlid be built it would settle the Stanfield-Coyote cut-off proposition. For, though it would not materially shorten the distance, by making use of this cut off and the Heppner branch, east-bound freight trains could shun the heavy grades along the lower Umatilla. Other gossip has it that the Pilot Rock branch is to be extended south into Grant County. COLLEGE MEN TO LECTURE Will Tell Easiern Oregon Farmers How to Make More Money. OREGOX AGRICULTURAL.

BURNETT RULES FOR STATE Effort Will Now Be Made to Collect Damages for Failure. of Corval lio & Eastern to Establish Depot Facilities. ALBANY, Or.. Oct. 25. (Special.) The, right of the State Railroad Commission, to regulate matters affecting the conve-l nlence of the traveling public,- as well as rates, was upheld in the State ' Circuit Court here today, when Judge Burnett overruled the demurrer of the defendant In the case of the State of Oregon vs. the Corvallis & Eastern Railroad' Com pany. - It is the first time this phase of the powers of the Railroad Commission has been attacked, and Attorney-General Crawford and State Railroad Commis sioner West, both of whom were present when the decision was announced, ex pressed themselves as highly pleased that the status of the Commission on this point has been judicially determined. The case In which this point came up was Instituted by the State of Oregon to recover $10.0i0 from theCorvallis & East ern Railroad Company ae the forfeit pro vided by statute for failure of a railroad to comply with the orders of the Com mission to build and equip a suitable sta tion at Lyons. Linn County. The railroad company filed a demurrer to the state's complaint, in which' It was claimed that the ' Legislature could not delegate power to the. Railroad Commis sion to regulate the management of pub lic corporations in such respects as or dering It to do certain acts in regard to way stations. This demurrer was argued at the last term qf court and briefs on the points Involve! were submitted to Judge Burnett, who took the demurrer under advisement. When he convened the October term of the State Circuit CourS for Linn County this morning. Judge Burnett rendered his 'decision. He held that the Legislature in con ferring power upon the Railroad Com mission to make such an order as was made in this case was ot delegating leg islative power. He said" that the Legisla ture certainly had the right to delegate power to the Commission to say in the first Instance whether or not a require ment Is reasonable. When the demurrer was overruled. At torney J. K. Weatherford, representing the Corvallis & Eastern, was granted until Xbvember 30 in which to file' an answer, and Attorney -General Crawford was given until December 15 to reply. The case will probably come to trial at the March term, and th'e state will make an effort to collect the J10.000 forfeit from the railroad company.

As in scarlet and typhoid fever, so in malaria and the grip, the after-effects of the disease are often worse than the disease itself. The sufferer is left with a debilitated system, is thort of breath upon the slightest exertion and is affected by every change .of weather. The system is in such a -weakened con dition that it is powerless to resist the attack of such diseases as pneumonia and bronchitis. V This is a condition wh ioh emphatically calls for a tonic for the blood. Dr. Wil liams' Pink Pills are the best medicine .for this purpose for they act directly on the blood which they cleanse of all im purities. They tone up the nerves and give health and strength to the debilita ted system. , A timely suggestion on how to enable the system to resist the after-effects ot wasting diseases is given in the experi ence of Mr N. E. Manning, a mechanic of No. 294 W. San Fernando street, Sau Jose, Cal. He says : "A few years 'ago when living on a fruit ranch in the mountains of Santa Cruz, I had an attack of the grip-from which I recovered. The next fall I again had a severe attack and was a sufferer from its effects for several months. I was tired and exhausted all of tha time and could not walk twenty steps without having to stop to rest I couldn't 6leop, was very nervous and had no appetite. 'I took medicine from the doctor but was not helped. I also tried two or three different remedies with but little relief. I had been sick for about five months before I read of Dr. "Williams Pink Pills and gave them a trial. I began to get better as soon as I started to take the pills and was completely cured after giving them a good trial. I think very highly of the pills and always recom mend them for after-effects of the grip." It iB of the utmost importance to your health, if yon have suffrt-ed from mala ria, the grip or fever, that you cleanse tho blood of tha lingering germs and put it in condition to resist disease. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by all druggists, or sent, postpaid, on re ceipt of price. 50 cents per box ; six boxes for $3.50, bv tha Dr. Williams Medicine f'nmnnnv.

BUCKING BULLS ATTRACT Xovel Feature Introduced by Excitement-loving Prineville People. Squaw Kace Canceled When Maids Topple From Ponies. PRINEVILLE, Or.. Oct. 25. (Spetlal.) Saturday tho Crook County Fair ter minated the strenuous week of its an nual existence with a final burst of ac tivity, as enthusiastic as it was varied. A baseball frame for the county cham pionship, hvrBeraclnsr, a bucking bull contest, livestock exhibition and the Judging of industrial and agricultural exhibits filled the final, day to overflow ing. I The ball tame for the county cham pionship went to Bend after a hotly contested struggle with the twlrlers of the county seat, by the narrow margin of one tally, the score standing 3 t 2. It so happens that there is no real "pennant" for the Benders to take back to their town on the Deschutes, but by their victory they do annex something even more substantial in the shape of a $100 purse and a large silver cup. The usefulness of the latter, the winners de clare, Is materially Impaired by the fact that Crook is now a dry 'county. The bucking bulf contest, while It did not, perhaps, equal In ferocity the exhi bitions offered in Spanish .arenas, pro vided a vast amount of amusement for the onlookers, even if the conclusion reached by the bovine "buckaroos"" was that horses are the better mounts,' after all.. The "squaw race," "by the way, which ws the impromptu drawing card of the previous morning, surpassed the rosiest expectations of its promoters as an amusement-maker. This thanks to the fact that the five ponies which started in the race, with their bronze faced and vividly-clad feminine Jock eys, one and all bolted the track when they reached a point opposite the en trance to the grounds, and deposited the racers, their ribbons and themselves in a rainbow-tinted and exclamatory tangle. And after the dust had cleared away, the ponies caught, the Jockeys picked up and the clamor of their rela tives quieted, it was found necessary to call the race off, nasmuch as the In dians, watchers as well as contestants, unanimously declined to make a aeoond attempt. The fair was held under the auspices of the First Central Oregon Agricul tural Association, being the fifth anneal event under this management. J. H. Gray is president of the organization. George Mliycan vice-president, H. Bald win treasurer and J. Fox secretary manager of the undertaking. In premi ums $35Q was distributed, and $2100 in prize money went to the winners in the horse races, with other awards in ath letic contests. It is estimated that the attendance during the. five days of the fair averaged ' close to 1000, while In number and interest of the exhibits, es pecially those Illustrating the economic resources of the county, this year's fair Is believed to be without a peer In Cen tral Oregon.
