THE SUNDAY OREGONIAN. PORTLAND, JULY 22, 1900.
THE STRIKE IS STILL ON
GltATV-lK0r,ERS "WXIAj KOT GO
BACK TO -WORK.
Ko Farther Offer Made by Their Em
ployers Vctt of the East
Side.
Matters are very quiet at all the big
East Side grain docks, beginning at the
"Victoria and ending at the Oceanic:. The
striking grain-handlers are still holding
out, with little outward evidence of yield
ing. The strikers have been holding
meetings in Schrantz Hall, on Helm
street, Lower Alblna, but since last Tues
day evening these ,meetlngs have been
secret, and the proceedings have not been
mado public There has been some effort
and much talk of organizing a union of
the strikers, but the movement has not
yet materialized. One of the strikers
stated yesterday that he looked for a set
tlement, but on what grounds he did not
say. There has been no other proposi
tion submitted by the dock, superintend
ents since last Tuesday, that of 30 cents
an hour for regular time and 45 cents
for overtime, which was then rejected.
Grain is being held at Interior places, as
the railway company does not desire to
brock up the switches In the. terminal
grounds.
At the Montgomery dock, yesterday,
several cars were unloaded by green men
There were about five men employed In
this work. At the Oceanic dock also some
work was done. At the Pacific Elevator
Company's docks nothing has been do
ing since Monday. There has been very
little to do at any of the docks during
the week. One of the superintendents
said yesterday evening that he thought
all the docks might start up work Mon
day, but where the men were to come
from he did not aay. At present a con
siderable number of men who work on
the docks are either In the harvest field
or fishing down the river. It seems a
waiting game on both sides. The men
have refrained from causing trouble, and
they say that they will not cause any.
It is stated that none of the men are
financially able to hold out very long.
The single men can get along, but with
those with families It is different. There
are groceries to buy and other bills to
pay. In their agreement they have
pledged to stand by "each other to tho
end.
The Thermometer Melted.
Contractor Bridges and Superintendent
IOeemann say that It was hot at the
Southern Pacific grounds yesterday,
where the new building Is under erection.
At 1:0 yesterday afternoon thoy looked
at the thermometer and it was then 100
In the shade. In the course of 10 minutes
they looked again and said It was 110.
They waited around half an hour and
looked again, but they said the thermom
eter was gone. It had melted. They be
came alarmed, and at once hitched up
Kleemann's horse and left the neighbor
hood. They did not stop to inquire after
the fate of the 150 men at work in the
shops. But the boys in the shops have
the laugh on them. One of the men
noticed their actions, and, surmising what
they were about, held a match under the
thermometer at intervals, and then stole
tho Instrument.
For Chn.ritn.bl Purpose.
For charitable purposes the Social Club
of Martha Washington chapter. Order

HO FREE HOMES ON UMATILLA
Lnnds to Be Sold In Considerable
Tracts Under Pending: Bill.
WASHINGTON, July 17. The Commis
sioner of the General Land Office has de
cided that the unsold lands of the Uma
tilla reservation do not come under the
provisions of the "free homes" bill, aa
tho conditions which prevail regarding
the lands of that reservation are peculiar,
and are not the same as in the case of
other reservations which are affected by
this bill.
This question waa taken up and dis
cussed at length by both the Indian and
the Land Office last Spring, when Rep
resentative Moody's bill providing for the
sale of the unsold Umatilla lands waa
under discussion in the department. At
that time Commissioner Hermann wrote
to the Secretary of the Interior, express
ing his opinion, saying:
"In viewi of the fact that the proceeds
from the sale of thse unsold lands inure
to the benefit of the Indians, and the
Commissioner of Indian Affairs seems to
be of the opinion that their Interests can
best bo subserved by disposing of the
lands in tracts of not more than one sec
tion of untlmbered lands, and one-quarter
sections of timbered lands to each
purchaser, without residence or cultiva
tion, I see no objection to such a course,
provided the necessary authority is ob
tained." Therefore Commissioner Hermann rec
ommended the passage of the Mcody
bill, which granted the requisite aqthcr
ity, because, as he said, the public sale
in smaller tracts had failed for want of
bidders. He made this recommendation
because It was indorsed by the Indian
Commissioner, because It does not seem
that the United States has purchased
these lands from the Indians, the Indians
having merely expressed a willingness to
settle upon the lands in severalty upon
their resrevation and to have their realduo
not needed for such allotment sold for
their benefit, and that the general policy
of tho Government should not be strictly
applied, but the main object should bo to
realize the greatest possible sum for the
Indians. ; especially where the sales, in
accordance with the. policy of the Govern
ment toward its own lands would tend
to decrease the amount to be realized.
In reviewing the history of the lands of
this reservation, it Is found that the lands
of the Umatilla reservation were offered
for sale to the highest bidder at not less
than the appraised value, and for not less
than Jl 25 per acre, under any circum
stances. The total number of acres In
the reservation is 126,335, the total number
of acres sold was 33,252, and the unsold
lands amounted to 93.0S2 acres. The
Moody bill provides that the lands of the
Umatilla reservation not Included within
tho boundaries of the reservation, and
not allotted or required for allotment to
the Indians, and which could not be sold
at public sale for their appraised value,
shall be sold at private sale by the local
land officers, one person being allowed to
purchase not mora than one section oi
untlmbered lands, as recommended, and
not to exceed one-quarter section of tim
bered lands. The bill does not require
residence as a qualification on tho part
of the purchaser.
The Land Office, upon Inspection, found
that certain of tho unsold lands -show Im
provement, and Commissioner Hermann,
In view o that fact, recommended that
the bill be amended so as to provide that
in such instances the purchaser should
also pay the appraised value of the Im
provements on such lands as he might
purchase; that is, the value at tho time
of purchase.
It is estimated that about one-half of
the unsold lands are untlmbered, and on
account of their character, are available
only for 6heep-grazlng. These lands are
situated along the foothills of the Blue
Mountains, and are largely rocky, and
marked with canyons and hills, and are
of no agricultural value whatever. In
view of the fact that these lands were
not sold for lack of bidders, and consider
ing their usefulness for grazing only, It
was deemed advisable to dispose of them
in wholo section lots, tracts that would be
of some practical value to sheepmen. The
timbered lands being more valuable, were
recommended to bo sold in smaller tracts,
as It was thought In this way to secure
more ready purchasers.
The Moody bill, which is exactly similar
to a bill ponding in the. Senate, drawn by
Senator Simon, is still in the committee,
awaiting the action of the Secretary of tho
Interior. It is expected that the Secretary
will make an early recommendation next
Winter, in hopes of securing the passage
of the bill.
QUESTION OF JURISDICTION.
"Would Like to Have Some One "Show
Him" Board of Public Works.
PORTLAND, July ZL (To the Editor,)
By what authority, and who ves'ted the
Board of Public Works with the power
to grant permission to a church to hold
a picnic today at Holladay Park?
After the City Council has authorised
the construction of a cycle path, why
does it become necessary to ask for the
"granting of the permission from the
Board of Public Works?
Are there two City Councils in the City
of Portland one elected by the people,
the taxpayers, operating under the name
of the City Council, and one operating
under the name of "The Board of Public
Works, and not elected by any one?
Is not" the City Council of Portland, the
servant of the people who elected it,
the proper body to make their ordinances
and look out for the welfare of the citi
zens, without being dictated to by any
Board of Public Works?
Is the City Council Just a figurehead
and the flfth wheel to a coach?
FRED T. MERRILL,
Councilman Third Ward, and & Tax
payer. "Papa," said the boy, "when you say
in your advertisements that your goods
are acknowledged by connoisseurs to be
the best, what do you mean by connois
seurs?" "A connoisseur, my boy," an
swored the great manufacturer, "Is an
eminent authority an authority, in short,
whd admis that our goods are tho'best."

WHEN ROOSEVELT ATE GRASS
Story of the Santlngo Campalgn-
Wymon a Fisherman.
"WASHINGTON, July 17. Since the Re
publican convention at Philadelphia, the
papers In all sections of the country are
hunting up stories on tho VIce-ProsI
dentlal nominee on the ilcKInley ticket,
and very naturally many of them pertain
to his life in the army, during the Spanish
war. The opposition papers' take the
stories and relato them In a llht to
throw the gallant Rough Rider into dis
favor, if possible, and the Republican
journals relate the stories without any
display of enmity, but merely for the
story's 'worth. One of the more recent
to make Its appearance, and that in an
opposition paper. Is ascribed to a man
named McMillan, who was found at Kan
sas City during the Democratic conven
tion. His story, robbed of its sting. Is yet
worthy of note, and Is substantially as
foljows:
McMillan was Roosevelt's orderly on
. the day of the hard fighting at San, Juan
Hill, and It was his duty on that occa
sion to keep close to Roosevelt, In order
to carry messages and perform the other
services required of an orderly. "Roose
velt, though game, was the most nervous
and fidgety man I ever saw In danger,"
said he. "During most of the charge up
the hill we had to crawl on all fours
through the tall grass. The bullets were
whizzing around us mightily. I stayed
close to Roosevelt all through the charge.
He was on all fours -most of the time go
ing up the hill, like the rest of us. Not
a word did he speak during the excite
ment. Tho fact Is, ho kept his mouth
rammed so full of grass that he couldn't
have talked very plain If he had tried.,
He kept puulng up grass by the handful,
stuffing it in his mouth; chewing. It and
spitting it out, and then ramming In an
other handful, roots, dirt and all. Be
foro those terrible hours were over. I'll
bet Roosevelt qhewed up and spt but
enough grass to make a bale of hay. Still
he didn't flinch, but kept moving up. It
,;$vnB just tfie awful excitement that made
him keep chewing grass."
Dr. "Wyman, in charge of the Marina
Hospital service, has. in late years, taken
a keen interest in various outdoor sports,
and became so enthulastlc that he Joined
a rod-and-gun club. He was talking en
thusiastically of hla now accomplishments
one day, and chanced to remark to a
friend:
"G-eneral, I have just bought one of
tho finest poles you ever saw."
"What"; roared the general, "a polet
What Is a pole?"
Dr. Wyman then explained that he had
purchased a fishing cole of the approved
pattern,, when thq General interrupted,
saying: '
"Wyman, that is not a pole: that is a
rod."
"Well," replied the doctor, "we will let
it go at rod, but it was one of those rods
with metal-flnlshed ends?'
"Ends! ends!" shrieked the General.
"Wyman. those are not ehds. They are
tips. I am afraid that you are not yet
imbued with the proper sporting spirit,
for no true sportsman was ever heard
to refer to a 'pole or 'ends.' "
Dr. Wyman has since become an ac
complished angler, and when telling hlsr
fish gtories carefully omits all referenca
to pole.

And when the end came, stricken with
hunger, with a blood-crazed mob ready
for fiendish torture, the sublime heroism
of that gallant little band of foreigners
in Pekln stands out in somber relief on
tho darkest page of modern history.
Fighting to the last and mowing down
their exasperated assailants, the foreign
ers, when the end was Inevitable were
compelled to shoot their own women and
children to save them from outrage and
torture. Then turning again upon the
foe they fell overpowered by sheer num

of civilization. Its nearest parallel Is the
"red fury of tho Seine," more than 1C0
years a"go. The reign of terror In Paris,
howevr, was, when once under way,
-dominated by Marat, Danton and Ro

the form of law. The tumbril and the

In China, 30 far as can bo seen from
this distance, It is a direct challenge of
an old and pagan civilization to the new.
Prince TUan's order for the final assault
upon the foreign legations In Pekln was:
"Destroy every foreign vestige and make
China a sealed book to all Western
powers." China was a sealed book to
tho Western powers for the greater part
of European history, and considering the
last page written In that book It might
have been better to have let It remain
so.
However that may bo, the volume will
now b opened and read to the end. The

The people who are abroad at this hour

who have to be back of the counter by
7:30 or 8 o'clock were taking an airing;
two companies of soldiers drew up In
front of the palace, while the bugles rang
out gayly; a private coachman was walk

evidently had a hard drive from some
where, probably an outlying hacienda.
You will find the vigorous, well-preserved

and early rising means amanecer (to see

The Cathedral Is another place where
there la no evidence that the day Is just
beginning., A priest Is at the altar, every
shrine has its particular worshipers, beg
gars are at tho door, and, for anything
I can see, it may as well be middle
forenoon as early morning.
As I came out of the Cathedral, a gang
of Italian laborers passed, and one asked
me for money to buy pan. I pretended
not to hear him. One does get so sick
of beggars! Half an hour later, having
made a tbur of pawnshops and el an
tique baratlllo, I met the same gang near
San Fernando, and the same man tackled
me again. "Cheeky duffer!" I thought.
After he had gone I remembered a sort
of gaunt, hollow-eyed look about him.

rather a puzzled look, and then fell to
counting noses and dividing tho pan. J.
