Upon Receiving His Sharp Protest Against the Slipshod Methods of Handling the Reserves, the Interlo Department Acted Quickly In Mak Inn Amends Forest Lands Unfit for Reserves Restored to Entry. A special to the Oregon Dally Jour aial says: Tho Interior department lias sud lenly decided to restore to entry about 345,000 acres of land In Eastern Oregon, now Included within forest reserve withdrawals. About 325,000 acres He around tho exterior bounda- Ties of the Tilue mountain withdrawal the remaining 20,000 alone tho bor- dura of the Wallowa withdrawal, This decided chnngo In tho policy of the department Is largely ascribed to a very pointed letter from (lovernor Chamberlain, which was received on ly yesterday. In this letter Oregon's oxecutlv takes issue with the department for Its indecision, or Its aversion to act on forestry matters, and insists that one of two things be done, either that forests reserves be Immediately erect t'd and the surplus lands restored to entry, or that the lands so far found unfit for toresfry purposes be thrown open to entry, leaving the actual cre ation of forest reserves to a later day, His protest made It plain that, In Ills opinion, the department's policy of delay Is injuring tho state, inter Xering with settlement, and is, all in all, Indefensible. It Is no exaggeration to say that Governor Chamberlain's letter creat- ed more excitement than has been witnessed In the department In many months, and brought about such ac tivlty among clerks as is without pre' cedent. Since that letter was received the department has been unable to act with enough expedition. Immediately upon receipt of Gover- nor Chamberlain's noto tho forestry bureau, which definitely recommended the creation of the Blue mountain for at reserve last May, was called upon to state what lands in tho Blue moun tain and Wallowa withdrawals had Jieen unfit for reserve purposes. The bureau promptly replied that about 325,000 acres in the liluo moun' tain withdrawal were deemed unsult able for permanent reservation, and 20,000 acres In the Wallowa with drawal. Some of this land Is good only for Brazing; other tracts are barren and could not produce trees, while still other tracts lying In the valleys along tho streams which penetrate tho pro posed reserves are distinctly agricul tural lands, and not desirable In a rC' serv,e. In other words tho forestry bureau recommended that all public lands in cluded In these two withdrawals which are In any way desirable for settlement or entry except under tho timber land laws be restored to tho public domain, retaining under with drawal only those lands that are val uable for their timber and essential In the preservation of tho water supply. "JOSHUA SIMPKINS." Stirring Sawmill Scenes the Acme of Stage Realism. "Jo3hua Slmpklns," a four-act New Hngland play, will be presented at the Prazer Monday, August 22. Tho climax of stage realism, It Is assert ed, has been reached in tho presenta tion of tho stirring sawmill scene in "Joshua Slmpkms," and will bo pre sented In this city by a peculiar me chanical contrivance which has never been Introduced hero before. This sawmill scene is claimed to bo a vast Improvement ov.or many at tempts In a Blinllnr lino.

Manager Taylor Will Patch Up Differ, ences Between Pendleton and the Circus. Manager K. J.

The undent Greeks also drank healths. When Thcrauierus was condemned to drink hemlock hu said. "Hoc pulcro Crltla.-." Tim undent Saxons also had the same custom. Hcnglst invited King Vortl- gern to a banquet to see the now luvles.' After the dishes were removed Howe un, the beautiful daughter of Hcnglst. appeared before the scene holding In her hand a gcldeu cup full of wine. She then made obeisance and said, which In modern English means, "Lord king, your health.". The king drank nnd replied, "Hero's to you." The Greeks banded the cups to the person they toasted and said, "This to thee." Our custom of holding out the cup comes to us from ancient Greece- American Queen. Tlilntlea. In the fourteenth century thistles were used ns food for cattle, nnd thoy were considered as a crop. In the old priory of Llndisfarne there is a note In tho archives of 134-1-15 of thick leather gloves required for tho harvest ers of tho thistle crop. It Is curious that, though the thistle is the emblem of Scotland, the Scot never seems able to say which kind of thistle is the true national emblem. It is said that a thistle which resembles Carduus marl- anus was figured on tho old coinage of the day of James V., who was Urst to put thirties on the Scotch money. The horn spoons sold in Edinburgh some times have little silver thistles on the end of the handles. Wlint Did She MrnnT Kitty Do you think Nellie Ilreesc Is real nice? Bessie I don't know. Why?
