MAJOR CHARLES WTLKINS
PRAISES INDIAN WOMEN.
Sara .the Morals of the Tribe Are
Higher Than Those of Any Other
Northwest Indians Indian Women
May Not Be Honest or Sober,. But
They Are Invariably Moral Slan
derous Reports Are Not Justified.
Major Charles Wilkins, for nine
years agent for the Umatilla Indiana,
pays a high tribute to the moral char
acter of the Umatlllas, and declares
the per cent of Illegitimacy In the
tribe Is less than among any other
Indians in the Northwest.
In speaking of the extremely high
moral character of the Umatilla wo
men Major Wilkins said to the East
Oregonian today:
"Good morals is not the exception
with the Umatilla Indian women, but
It Is the Invariable rule. Among all
classes virtue Is esteemed as the
highest attribute of their lives. They
may not be free from the love o'f
liquor, they may not be religious nor
honest In their business dealings, but
Ahey are almost Invariably moral and
virtuous.
"Among the Lapwals Immorality is
common, and it is a wonder that the
Umatilla tribe has not become infect
ed with the bad habits and loose mar-!
als of the Lapwals, as the two tribes
visit so much and are so closely re-
lated socially.

lodge, headed by John P. Kent. The
Walla Walla knights passed through
Pendleton this morning on their way
home. In the party were Mr. Kent.
Victor Cullen, Thomas Ennis and
Joseph McCarty.
WU1 Winter In California.
S. O. Swackhammer and family, of
Union; A. C. Huntington and family,
and Joseph Palmer and family, of La
Grande, passed through this morning
en route to San Diego, Cat., where
they will spend the coming winter.
The fall weather in Grand Ronde val-K-y
has been .- ry disagreeable Im
season, excessively cold rains and
winds having prevailed much of the
time. All those In the party are
among the oldest pioneers of Union
county and have been actively In bus
iness and public affairs for the past
10 years in Eastern Oregon.

I'rs as in the happy long ago when
the gave him her hand, and Belinda I
' E. Collins forgot the heartaches and 1
anguish that his acts had caused her.
All was lorgiven and Saturday night
v'.wn Justice of the Peace Thomas I
Fits Gerald pronounced the words j
that reunited her with Henry J. Col- I
llns. Belinda blushed with happlnern
a? she did on that first wedding day,
many years ago.
Six weeks ago Mrs. Collins filed a
suit for divorce In the state circuit
court, alleging cruel and Inhuman
treatment on the part of her husband.
A fortnight later State Circuit Judge
W. R. Ellis Issued the decree that sev
ered the bonds that had proved so
galling. Never again, suid the freed
woman, would she be tempted by the
love of man.
But Henry J. sorrowed and was
lonesome. His heart yearned for
the love of her who was the mother of
his children and for years had been
his helpmate and his refuge in the
days of adversity.
"For our children's sake, Belinda,"
he pleaded. "Think of those happy
days when we were both young and
the tots played at our feet." Belinda
did think, her hand stole gently into
his, and the county clerk recorded an
other chapter In the story of the Collinses.
