WALLOWA. Or, Jan. 10' t Staff Cor
respondence. Wallowa, the second
town In the county in point of
else, with a population, aa Riven by
tha last census, of 793. lies 24 miles
northwest of Joseph, and. Ilka Joseph
and enterprise. Is situated on the Wil
low River and on the O.-W. R. at N,
Railway. It is nearly In the western
extremity of what Is called tha Wal
lows Valley, a valley which would be
railed a park in the Inter-mountain
country.
This park or Taller Is surrounded on
a'l aides by high mountains, the only
outlets being up and down the Grand
Ronde River, which tha railroad fol
lows up from Rondowa to I -a Grande.
tha latter place being- 21 miles north
west of here.
As already mentioned, tha present
railway ends at Joseph, but surveys
have bean made to extend tha line soma
11 miles to the southeast to tha little
town of Homestead, the terminus of tha
present line leading north from Hunt-
lnarton along the Ore-ton bank of tha
PnaKe River. v bile sucn a road would
be of great benefit to this section, it
would not open up much of a farming
country. The road would run through
a rouah and mountainous section, but
finely timbered.
Rail Kom PreasUlac.
ntinnlnr northea.it from Rondowa
and followlna: the Grand Ronde. there
ltf been other railway etirveya made
exten-linc to the Snake River, which
tn Grand Ronde flows Into about six
miles north of the extreme northeast
ern mrnrr of Wallowa County and
Orecon.
Sur-h a road would open up one of
the finest sections of farming, fruit,
rerral snd grazing portions of the state,
and Also tap large timber belts- It will
be noticed that such a road would al
most reach l-eKtstnn. and when tha
present Huntlngton-Hornestead road Is
romplr-ted down the nake to Lewiston.
thie entire section would ba In touch
with Portland by a water-level route.
This Is the extension for which tha
people of Oregon should pull together.
The distance from Rondowa to tha
Snake is about 70 miles. It la said such
a road could be cheaply and economi
cally constructed. Remember. It would
put the entire Grand Ronda Valley In
water-level touch with Portland. It
would eliminate tha Blue Mountain
as.-ent and descent, and would not
greatly lengthen the distance between
La Grande and Portland.
In speaking of the extreme northern
section of Wallowa County, one of tha
het Informed citlxens of this section.
Mr. Galloway, of Enterprise, tells me
that it is even better In all that goes
lo make a section prosperous as a
stot and general farmtng country than
the best of tha Palouse country, or the
best of that around Lewlston and
Alalia.
Hea-lee Utile Kaewm.
Tha section around Troy, extending
many miles east, west and north. Is
aid t" be one of the very finest por
tions of our state. I am. of course, glv.
ing these statements on faith, but I am
of tne firm opinion that they are not
ttagcrrated. And I am going to ask
tha management of The Oregonlan to
let me make a tour of that section tha
coming sSummer and tell Its readers
lust tha whole truth about this little
known portion of our state.
Tha Town of Wallowa has as pros
perous a look as any place I have re
cently visited. Some of tha residences
here appear as If some of the best
dwellings of the Irrtngton section of
Kast Portland had been picked up In
tact and set down here. And the busi
ness bouses are likewise substantial
snd large, the stocks displayed are well
arranged and of good proportions.
Everything bears an air of prosperity
snJ thrift, and there is something be
yond tha agricultural resources of a
splendid country to bark these up a
payroll of something like 111.800 to
SIS. 000 a month. This comes princi
pally from the IS sawmills in tha coun
ty directly surrounding the town, tha
farthest being not mora than seven
miles distant
There is a creamery here, and Its
output Is stesdlly increasing. There la
but one bank tha Stock growers' and
Farmers' National with a capital and
surplus of about 170. 0u0. and deposits
of 117617.(3. Mrs. Minnie U. Stevens,
ft Portland, is the president, and C. T.
MrDanlel the cashier. It was organised
as a atate bank in 103, and changed to
a National bank February 1. 19011. It
will ba seen that for a comparatively
young Institution It has made wonder
ful progress.
Tyee Is -Swift."
Wallowa's newspaper, the Wallowa
Sun. la one of the better class of coun
try newspapers. It Is owned by R. H.
Jonas, but he Is now teaching school
over at John Hay, and J. M. Bledsoe Is
running tha office with marked ability.
They have a very nicely equipped plant
and do a large Job business. Tha type
for the paper Is set by a schautotype.
which beats a linotype hands down. I
must say. however, that this schauto
:ype has hair somethtnc resembl'ng red.
I can say this without fear of accident,
for I expect to be far hence when this
letter is read in tha Sun office by Miss
Margaret Schautt.
a:i that I have said In my former
letters from this county about live
stock can not only be repeated as ap
plying to this little city, but can ba
scceatuated. The surrounding land-t-wnr9
seem to be bound to rslse and
ship the best stock sent to tha Portland
torkyard from any portion of Oregon.
And in the dairy business there are
men here who are pursuing their busi
ness with as much Intelligence as any
mi:k producers In the state. The herd
of Tulley Brothers, a litis over a mile
from town. ur.!er tha supervision of J.
;". Ware, has 60 cows. In the month of
July. last, this herd produced milk
which sold at the creamery here for
$, and the only feed was wild grass
from uncleared land adjacent to tha
river. Aside from tha milk sold. 14
people were kept In milk and butter.
And the herd ronstpted of two, three
and four-year-old heifers, and soma of
them did not "pay their keep." while
the best paid a profit of IK for the
nocttu .
Five Cherebea la dry.
There Is an accurate account kept of
each cow. and tha herd Is being
brought up as fast as it Is possible to
do so. And this herd la but typical of
sevwral ethers.
There are five churches In Wallowa.

One of them, the Presbyterian. Is said
to have the handsomest audience-room
of any Protestant church in Kastern
Oregon. There Is a very handsome high
school building, and Ita Interior ar
rangements are as near perfect as tha
architects could plan. There Is a large
flouring mill, a planing mill and a
beautiful publlo school building. Tha
Xlty baa a fine gravity water system,
the supply coming from tha Wallowa
River. Tha electric plant la run in con
nection with tha flouring mill, and the
service Is good and ratea reasonable.
Much of the machinery In town la run
by water motors, such as tha creamery,
prlntlag office, etc
To show the standing of the city with
other placea of similar size in Oregon,
there will be a postsl savings bank In
operation here on the 17th of this
month. While I am not sure about It,
I am told that this office will be In
the smallest city In the state having
such a bank. It was evidently placed
here so soon by the authoritiea taking
note of the large payroll paid regular
ly to the mill and other workers.
Very few placea in the West csn
boast of a payroll of SIS per capita
per annum, aa this city can. And this
la only from tha mills; adding to this
amount the wages paid the ordinary
mechanics, clerks and others who work
for a wage. It will be seen tUat tha
Wallowa people have something to
back them up when they claim to have
the most prosperous small city In the
state.
And. speaking of wealth, the resi
dents claim that the per capita wealth
of the county Is the greatest of any
county lu the United States. That is
certainly a broad claim. But by a sim
ple sum In arithmetic I find that the
assessed valuation la equal to the sum
of a few cents less than 11200 per
capita for the SIC persons shown by
the last census to reside In the county.
As It Is sure that the assessed valuation
la far below the real Intrinsic value of
ih. nmiuiri in tha county. It can be
seen that there Is soma grounds for the j
claim made by tha Wallowa people ol
being remarkably rich. And. remem
ber, there are no very wealthy citizens
residing here, and certainly no paupers.
The wealth mentioned Is very evenly
distributed, making a erosperous com
munlty.

tha missing woman appeared at the

from the hubsand whose anguish had
just won the sympathy of the officera.
The child-mother Is only 17 years old,
and her baby was born four months
ago. Carrying It In her arms, she went
to the station shortly after her hus
band had made his report, and dis
played great swollen bruises which she
said he had caused. The police advised
her to swear to a complaint, but she
said Hunt had threatened to kill her If
she revealed what had happened.
Mrs. Hunt left her home at S51 Pres

which aaid that she Intended to take
the child to the Baby Home and then ,

to an end when she went to the station.

FOREST FIRES 887
Damage in 1911 Far Less
Than That of Previous Year.
FORESTER CECIL REPORTS
Oregon, Washington and Alaska
Biases Listed Great Improve
ment In Fighting Flames Due
to Trails and Phones,
According to the annual report of
George H. Cecil. Lletrlct Forester, $87
fires menaced National forest lands In
Oregon, Washington (excepting Stev
ens County) and Alaska, during 1911.
Tha timber damaged or destroyed In tha
two states amounted to 61.901,000 feet,
board measure, valued at 158, J3. Toung
second-growth timber destroyed was
valued at I5J.92I. The estimated value
of timber damaged or destroyed and
young growth destroyed during the pre
vious year on National forest lands in
Oregon and Washington amounted to
I72S.J42.
During the year (82 of these fires
were discovered and extinguished by
forest officers before but little If any
damage had been done. The remaining
SOS varied In size from a few acres to
several hundred acres In exceptional
cues. The National forest timbered
area burned over In Oregon and Wash
ington aggregated 38.299 acres, while
the open land burned over aggregated
15.990 acres, the total burned over be
ing 64.289 acres, or about two-tenths of
one per cent of the wholet
"The Improvement in this year's reo
ord over that of last year Is very grat
ifying," said Mr. Cecil, "especially when
the fact Is considered that the hazard
was Just about as great during the sea
son Just past as It was during 1910. The
danger from lightning was considerably
greater in 1911, there being 269 fires
from that cause. In 1910 there were
only lit. The better protection we were
able to give the forests Is attributable
to the fact that 1911 found us In a bet
ter position than ever before In regard
to trails and telephone lines. In nu
merous Instances these added facilities
saved their coat several times over In
getting men and supplies to the scene
quickly. Wa have continued the work
this season, having, constructed 431
miles of trail and 379 mllee of telephone
line.
We have planned the construction of
an additional ITS miles of line which
will be available by the beginning of
next fire season. ' This will give a to
tal of over 2000 miles of trail and al
most 1500 miles of telephone lines con
structed and owned by tha Forest Serv
ice. "A great advance was made over the
season of 1910 In the intenslvenesa of
the Summer patroL In 1910 our funds
permitted the employment of 445 pa
trolmen, as against 64S during tha past
Summer, an Increase of 44 per cent.
Under tha provision of the Weeka law
the State of Oregon received from the
Government $1300 for expenditure in
protecting from fire the timbered water
sheds of navigable streams. This sum
was expended under the direction of .
A. Elliott. State Forester."

the aim. a number of slldea showing
ether phases of the remarkable trip
were exhibited.
Another feature on the bill was Chief
Eagle Hone, a irenulne Indian bari
tone, who contributed aa his part of
the entertainment a remarkable sons:
production. Chief Eagle Horse, whose
other name is Charles Cutter, is well
known to many Portland people, and
possesses the distinction of being- the
only genuine Indian singer on the
American stage, but his real claim to
merit lies in his possession of a splen
did snd effective personality.
The programme had other claims to
credit in the "Eternal Mother," a re
markable Blograph, and "Lead, Kindly
Light." an Edison film on the highest
moral principle, together with two
comedies. "The Modern Liar" and "The
Haunted Room." That Trio made Its
usual vocal hit.
The programme at the Star, in its
way, was equally remarkable, with
four splendid films and. Frank Milano,
an Italian harpist of rare excellence,
together with the Romlg twins, the
harmony slnirers. The photoplays were
excellent. "The Meeting of the Ways"
was unusually effoctlve, as were The
Trosecutlng Attorney," a thrilling story
replete with stirring climaxes. "Bill's
Bill." a laughable comedy, and the
maneuvers of the French army.
The Arcade -Theater also offered an
entertainment even better than usual,
consisting of "A Question of Seconds,"
a thrilling melodrama; "St- Johns,
Newfoundland." the home of tha fish
ing Industry; "Willie's Sister," a col
lege comedy on bright and original
lines; "The Ragtime Love Affair,"
farcical, and "The Infancy of Moses," a
Blbllc&l picture clearly portraying an
episode In the life of the great Hebrew
law giver. The programme was also
distinguished by the Initial appearance
of the Arcadian trio, who sang well
and made a substantial hit.
At the Oh Joy Theater the manage
ment presented "The Horse Thief," an
exciting drama; "The O'Neill," the
scenes of which are laid in Ireland;
"Paid in His Own Coin," a dramatic
sketch, and Elwood, who appeared in
a new song hit.
Tha Tlvoll Theater had as a head
liner, "Two Girls and a Man," a clever
drama; "General Dast," and "The Kiss
ing Pill." real comedies, and several
other fine, features, as well as Arthur
Elwell. who sang a pleasing song. The
audience at the Crystal was unusually
large, and all appreciated the excellent
programme offered by that popular
East Side photoplay theater.
STORM DANGERS BRAVED
3EAILCAKRIEB HAS XARROW ES
CAPE FROM DEATH.
Trees Crash Around C. M. Bailey,
Who Rides Through Tempest
With Letters to Aschoff's.
With the tempest roaring about him
and tree tops falling on all sides, C. M.
Bailey, mail carrier for the district
near Marmot' made his way Saturday,
January with the mall to Aschoff's.
He took his life In hand and was in
danger every minute of being crushed
by falling trees. He left Sandy with
the 'mall In the morning with a two
horse vehicle and managed with great
difficulty to reach the home of George
Hoffman.
The storm continued to Increase In
violence, and Mr. Hoffman advised
Bailey not to attempt to proceed, as
he certainly would be killed or perish
In the cold and sleet. It looked as if
no living thing could breast the storm
and get through. The road is through
the timber for a considerable distance,
and a gale was sweeping through the
bending and groaning trees.
Bailey, however, was not to be
stopped. Leaving one horse and the
wagon at Hoffman's, he disappeared
the mist snd timber, riding one horse
and carrying the mall. Pushing on till
he reached tha McCaber camp, near the
road, the top of a tall fir tree was
broken off by the wind and started to
fall directly down on the mallcarrler.
It seemed that nothing could save
Bailey and the horse from being
crushed, but the horse, startled by the
crash of the splintered tree, suddenly
sprang forward Into the deep mud and
slippery snow and fell directly In the
path of the falling tree top.
In an Instant, when Bailey expected
the tree to strike him, the little mus
tang sprang to hla feet and Jumped
forward as the tree came down and
carried himself and rider safely
through. The tree came down on the
ground, where Bailey and the horse
a second before were struggling in the
mud, brushing tha mallcarrler with the
outer limbs

Captain Loses - Cash.
ASTORIA. Or., Jan. 14. (Special.)
The hull of the wrecked achooner
Admiral, which ran through the Co
lumbia River Jetty yesterday, has split
fore and aft by bumping on Peacock
Bplt, and the greater portion of It is
now close to the beach at the short
sand strip between McKenzle Head and
Cape Disappointment, but too far out to
be reached at low water. Another sec
tion of the hull Is lying oft the Head,
almost under the middle battery at Fort
Canby.
A large quantity of wreckage, prin
cipally of light stuff, but nothing of
value, has come ashore near Canby. It
Is now certain that the craft Is a total
loss and that nothing can. be saved
from her.
In addition to clothing and other
personal effects. Captain Bender lost
60 gold sovereigns and two gold
watches, one of them belonging to his
wife, which were In a desk in the
cabin.
As near as can be learned the vessel
was not insured, as the Pacific Ship
ping Company, the owner, carries its
own insurance.
The Admiral cost about $50,000 12
years ago, and at the time she was
wrecked was valued at $20,000. Her
cargo capacity was $00,000 feet of lum
ber. CHARTER RATE IS ADVANCED
German Ship Kleo to Load Wheat
Here for United Kingdom. .
Another advance In the grain rate
for sailing vessels Is evidenced by the
chartering yesterday of the German
ship Kleo to load wheat from Portland
for the United Kingdom. M. H. Houser
takes the Kleo at 31s Dd. The last
previous sail charter for the same busi
ness received SOs 8d.
The Kleo arrived at Callao -ccember
15 from Antwerp, and will sail for
Portland this week. This is the highest
charter of the present season, and tile
price Is not likely to drop, aa the sail
ing tonnage available Is scarce at the
present time and little In sight to
handle this season's crop.
Crowds Watch High Waters.
Attracted by the high water In the
river, the different bridges were crowd
ed Sunday afternoon with sightseers
watching the swlft-runnlng current
that carried an Immense amount of
driftwood, trees and an occasional hay
stacks The sea. gulls soon were at
tracted by the crowds, and came by the
hundreds aa some person began throw
ing broken crackers into the river to
watch them fight for It. TWs example
was soon taken up by others, and con
tinued until the supplies of the stores
in that vicinity were exhausted.
