"Back of Hood Iliver there are a few
rather lawless people," remarked Game
Warden Quiuihy this morning. Mr.
Quimby has just returned from The
Dalles, where he was investigating some
alleged violations of the game law.
"These people," continued the official,
"are very impudent and say that it is
not healthy for a game officer to go in
there. There is a partv of men who
fiave been killing elk, and a deputy is
now upon their trail who will continue
hib investigations, despite the threats of
the toughs of that locality. It is con
tended that they simply kill the elk for
food, but these animals are protected by
law for the nest ten years, and cannot
be killed for food or for any other pur
pose. I have informed my deputy not
to tile information unless he Ins positive
To the Stiller on the "Overlap of the
Northern 1'itcijic liailroad Company:
The Kastern Oregon Land Company
hereby desires to give notice to all con
cerned, as follows :
That, at tho October term, 1S99, of the
supreme court of the United States, the
cases ot the lvtern ureson i.aml Uom
panv against E. 1. Messinger and John
1). Wilcox were decided,( January S, 1900)
in favor of this company; that any
further question as to the title to the
lands included in the grant to the Dalles
Military Koau Company, is Tuerebv
finally settled.
This controversy forced upon the com
pany through the ruling of the interior
department ot the government, lias oeen
long and expensive, both to the settlers
and the company, and has worked a
serious injury to "ail. We havo under
stood that there is as is quite natural
some anxiety prevalent as to the policy
that the company intends to pursuu.
In response to this feeling, we hereby
declare that it is our purpose to do
exactly right to adopt and carry out a
policy that will afford no fair or honest
man the slightest pretext upon which to
found a grievance. No man who wants
to treat the company with justice, or
who desires to respect the laws cf the
land, shall have cause for complaint.
The Eastern Oregon Land Company
will make no unjust exactions or de
mands upon settlers who have hereto
fore filed upon the lands, but will deal
in a humane and liberal spirit with all
who will meet us in a corresponding
disposition. The company will also use
its irood offices to secure, through Ore
gon's representatives and the company's
agents in Washington, to such of the
settlers as may be entitled thereto under
the law n " reimbursement of nny
moneys heretofore paid by them to the
government; and if to that end addi
tional legislation is necessary, we will
exert our best endeavors to promote it.
nr agent in Oregon, Mr (j. . jlc-
Nar, hss been instructed that in his
tercourse with the settlers and in the
djustment of the business relations
with them, the piincipals set forth here
in are to be absolutely observed.
Yours respectfullv,
P. I). Martin.
President Eastern Oregon Land Co.

attractive than the shimmering olive

fruit and graceful tree commend us to
the golden orange, first, last and always,
and it exists in greatest perfection at
Covina, Riverside, Iiedlands and High

scientific and tempting fashion in which
the sorting and packing of the orange is
here accomplished.

The claim of other cough medicines to
be as good as Chamberlain's are effectu
ally eat at rest in the following testi
monial of Mr. C. D. Glass, an employe
of Bartlctt & Dennis Co., Gardiner, Me.
He says: "I had kept adding to a cold
and cough in the winter of 1S97, trying
every cough medicine I heard of without
permanent help, until one day I was in
the drug store of Mr. Houlehan and he
advised me to try Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy and offered to pay bad: my
money if I was not cured. My lungs ant'
bronchial tubes were verj sore at this
time, but I was completely cured by
this remedy, and have since always
turned to it when 1 got a cold, and eoon
find relief. I also recommend it to my
friends and am glad to say it is the best
of all couirh medicines." For sale by
