The first Iky n 'uu oi iuuuu was N tj ' 0 J'or08t Whites must keep off the Umatilla reservation when business or neces sity does not call them there, is tho flat that has gone forth from the agency. Under orders of Acting Su perintendent McNlchols, Iudian police are toduy posting the following noti ces: "No fishing, hunting or pleasure camping nllowed on this reservation under penalty. Charles S. McNlchols, special agent In charge." Mr. Nichols In explanation said: "I have no desire to be severe with persons coming on tho reservation, but by the terms of the treaty with the Umatillas, no white person has In reality any right on the reservation without a pass. The regulation re garding camping, hunting and fishing has been generally disregarded and there have be.cn a great many com plaints from the Indians. They de clare that white men come on their allotments and shoot among the stock. When asked to leave by the Indians, many times the intruder grows insolent. There Is no doubt, however, that the Indian himself lins an exaggerated Idea of his own rights. "Then, too, there Is complaint of liquor being brought on tho reserva tion by campers. I am aiming at the pleasure campers. If a person is passing through tho reservation and night overtakes him ho has a perfect right to make camp, and ho will not be molested." The acting superintendent declares that the Indians themselves take whisky on the reservation In spito of the officers, but that ho will provent whites from doing so, if possible. Complaints have been coming to mc ever since I took charge o. the agency." St. Petersburg, Aug. 24.

Thore Is no work there nt present and tho gov ernment does not wish to see idle men flock thore to endanger tho san itary condition, by crowding the pros ont accommodations' on the isthmus. Portland. Aug. 24. It Is virtually conceded thnl El Paso, Texas, cap tures the next session, in 190C, of tho American Mining Congress. If she does not It will be bocnuso of ,some combination, not now deemed possi ble, between the city defeated for the headquarters and some city not yet considered for the honor, or per haps between the defeated aspirant for tho headquarters and tho success ful city, on a compromise. At this writing the winning out of El Paso seems the most likely and assured event of the session. Harry Norman, editor of tho El Paso News, Is leading tho fight to lo cate tho convention In his town, and apparently tho boom is that infectious that no other town will be even seri ously considered for the honor. The El Paso people have a more than plausible argument in that of ease of access of that placo to delegat.es from Mexico. Heavy Mexican Interests are managed and owned by Americans, and the npproachment between tho mining men of the two nations Is closer than between representatives of any other Industry, and this fact appeals at onc.e to the common sense and comradshlp of all the delegates. However they may vote, they ac knowledge the strength of tho argu mcnt. With this view of tho case prevailing, it is readily seen that El Paso is regarded as being geographi cally the' most eligible town yet spok en of for the next national conven tion. Headquarters Fight. There Is a hot fight on between Denver and Salt lake City for tho permanent headquarters, with appar ently Salt Lake In the lead. Tho latter placo has tho largest delega tion present, and her str.ength is most In evidence, though it may not bo any more real when tho show-down comes. Every train brings delegates from Denver, and when it comes to a finish fight Denver Is always to bo feared, as tho record her peoplo made lu tho National Livestock con vention shows. In that instanco hei counsels and votes prevailed In al most every Issue raised. Salt Lake City Is putting her best foot forward now, but there is much nervous ap prehension shown by her delegates. A. J. Davis, a member of tho Salt Lake City council, has authority to offer to tho congreBB a first-class ,slto for a headquarters building an en tire gratuity to tho mining congress from tho city. Mr. Davis avers that this site is ono of tho most centrally located in tho city. This offer by Salt Lake comes perilously ncac being a full hand, and tho few .Denver peo pl.o here havo not yet mode any prop ositions to offset it. Tho major portion of tho Oregon delegation, and it Is also understood that practically all of tho Montana delegation favor Denver for tho head quarters. If tho issue could bo made on a basis of "natural selection," with geography as a leading consideration, uuuver wouia prouauiy win out. The selection of headquarters will be made this afternoon In all proba bility. For Mint at Portland. Senator Mitchell's address waa the feature of tho session. In It ho gave a history of his efforts to havo a branch mint established, with an as say office, at Portland, and announc ed his determination to persevere In me worn until tno thing is accomplished. T. A. Ritkard, editor of tho End- neerlng and Mining Journal, introduc ed a resolution commending tho pos tal authorities for their efforts to break up concerns doing fraudulent mining buslnoss through tho malls. Chancellor Andrews, of tho Nebras ka Stato University, lectured to tho congress last ovenlng on "The Pro motor and His Placo in Develop ment." For Alaskan Representation. This morning's session of tho Min ing Congress was largely dovotod to a spirited dobato on two resolutions, each of which had been adversely re ported by tho comniltteo on resolu tions and brought to a i.ght on tho floor. The first was a resolution fa voring an. appeal to the national con gress to give Alaska one representa tive in congress. Tho resolution wn8 adopted. The second debnto was on tho nd verso r.eport covering a resolution asking for tho nltorntlon of tho gov ernment methods of hearing tb de cide whether lnnds arc entitled to bo filed on as mineral and asking that they bo Investigated by tho same pro ccoduro ns now governs that In the appeals for patonts on land. So suc cessful were tho adversaries of tho measure that tho resolution was re ferred back to tho committee for fur ther consideration. As n result of caucusscs last night, It Is now almost certain that El Paso will get tho next convention and Salt Lake will bo chosen tho permanent headquarters for the Mining Con gress.
