A congressional committee reported to congress that the Carnegie company was selling armorpiate to the government at $200 a ton more than'it was worth. - The armorpiato makers confessed before a congressional committee - while the armor plate bill was under consideration that they had been selling armor plate to foreign governments at lower figures than to the American covernment. They tried to bully' congress into rejection pf the armor- plate bill by a threat to dismantle their plants and refuse' to make armorpiate, for the government, even in time of war, in case the armor- plate bill should be passed. , The Oregonlan thinks Mft Daniels was wrong in his policy or having the government 'make a part of its own armorpiato and Insists that all rrHE surrendor or capture of w iuwuamit.u 6..iu ,1,u. .w , .v., , I Komlloff is hourly expected, out of every 100 American citizens, on a conservative esUmaU, approve I Hls revolt is crushed and th course of .

In the first place, it is the countys seat of Oregon's largest county Harney. Harney county . Is about the size of Belgium, yet It. has a population of less than 6000, It Is larger than Vermont. Tf ou could lay the state of New Hampshire over Harney county and you would have enough scraps left over to make a falr-sUed county. You' could cut Harney county up into two states the size ' of Massachusetts and ' Rhode Island and have land enough left to good-sised ranch for Bui Hanley. Harney county has an area of 6,3CT,120 acres; in square miles, 9983. '.'. In Multnomah county, we have 816 people, to the square mile, while In Harney county they have four tenths of a. person to the square -'mile.

Tou will find real culture as well as a most friendly and hos pitable people in Burns. Tha. resident of the Willamette val ley Is apt to think of Harney county as a rough sagebrush waste popu lated by Jackrabbits, sagehens, ratle- snakes, coyotes ana arunxen cow boys Well, you will have to amend your Ideas. Tou are right as to the Jackrabbits and 'sagehens; there are lots . of them. A bounty of 5 cents Is paid for the scalp and ears ot Jackrabbits, and over a million -pairs of e&rs have been turned In to the county treasurer. I helped load an auto . truck at Crane. One of the sacks I picked up was light and Its contents rustled like cornhusksV discovered It-: was a sack of jack rabbit ears being shipped to Burns to be cashed. In the stores in many of the -smaller communities jackrab bit ears are taken in trade at face value 5 cents or are purchased for cash at 4 cents a pair. Tou are right about the sagebrush. There are countless miles of it. But you are : wrong about the drunken cowboys and the desert waste.
