The following extract from the Long Creek Ranger Is a fair sample of the expressions of public sentiment commending the East Oregonlan's fight for better morals. Such ex pressions are noticed from every part of the state .and give evidence of a healthy condition. After reprinting In full an editorial from the Kant Oregonian demanding the regulation of saloons and the sup pression of gambling, the Ranger says: "The above Is from the Pendleton East Oregonian, an Independent pa per with nerve enough to fight for the rights of law and decency-loving people, and Is making friends from I other parties by Its stand. The Trib une, the avowed republican paper of Pendleton, Is too proud to take the same stand, because the E. O. started It, and because they wish to have their associates from the low6r stra tas of society. The same conditions generally prevail In Grant county, with the exception as to the demo cratic paper. Here the peace officers protect real crime at times, and pros- I ecute Innocent people." EXCURSION STEAMER SANK. Wont Down In Seven Feet of Water, and No One Drowned. Indianapolis, Ind., Aug. 8. The ex cursion boat Sunshine sank this af ternoon at Broad Rlpplo park, 19 miles from the city, with 180 passen gers on hoard, all of whom were men but one, a woman, who was rescued by a launch. No one was drowned, bi t several were Injured In the panic. The Sunshine plys on tho backwater of Broad Ripple dam on White rlvr and was carrying a picnic party con sisting of employes of the Indlnnnp olls stockyards. The overweighting of the boat caused It to turn over on Its side and the superstructure broke from the hull. Tho water Is 14 feet deep In the channel, but tho boat was neir the bank when the accident occurred and In but seven feet of water. The upper deck remained above water. Five persons wero more or less 'n Jured. William Waited had his bae'e badly hurt and Dennis Mllltgan had his right foot mashed. Persons In Inunches and canoes took a number of persons from the water. The great er number clung to the upper deck, which was not submerged, until taken ashore by boats. Royal .Arcanum Meets. Boston, Aug. 8.

OTHERS MAY STRIKE ENGINE AND TRAINMEN OBJECT TO YOUNG OPERATORS Great Northern Conductor Suys the Conditions on liotli tlio Northern Lines Aro Not Improving Incxiicr ienccU Oiierutor Imiiei'll tlio Uvoh of OUier Employes Who May be Forced to Strike for Self Protection Trainmen und englnemen are cer- tuln to be Involved In the telegraph eis' strike on the Great Northern and Northern Pacific lines, according to P. F. Harbaugh, a Great Northern conductor who Is taking a vacation during the strike and who was In the city this morning. According to Mr. Harbaugh, the companies have sent out a large num ber of youthful operators from the St Puul, Minneapolis and other offices to take charge of the most Important Htatlons along the lines. These young boys are absolutely In experienced In train orders and the trainmen and englnemen have hafl several narrow escapes from terrible wrecks owing to the mistakes made by the operators In charge, and unless conditions Improve soon, the employes In train and engine service will send In a protest against the use of Inex perienced men. Mr. Harbaugh says it is especially dangerous to have such men in serv ice now while traffic is so heavy and so many trains are being rushed over the road. The situation is no nearer a settlement now than it was when the strike was called and unless the companies concede some of the chief points demanded by the. operators, he says, it promises to he greatly pro longed. Mr. Harbaugh says that neither the englnemen nor trainmen believe In sympathetic strikes but that where their lives are Imperiled by the Inex perience of the youthful operators, they are forced to protest and unless old operators are secured to handle the train service both those orders will be compelled to strike, however much they may object to the strike principle. New engines, better equipment, faster speed, longer trains and more rigid discipline are all coming to both of the lines Involved In the strike and traffic aside from the Lewis and Clark fair rush was enormous, from St. Paul westward.

Simon, of Syracuse, N. Y., to Come to Portland by Automo bile, IIIh Family to Be tiie First to Cross tho Continent in That Man ner will Stop at Pendleton on the Way Journey of 3300 Miles for Pleasure and Recreation. Pendleton, Or., Is on the route mapped out by Edward F. Simon, of Syracuse, N. T., who last Saturday morning started In an automobile Journey across the continent by way of Chicago, Omaha, Cheyenne, Salt Irfike City, Boise City and Pendleton to Portland. Mr. Simon Is accompanied by his family and it will be the first family ever to cross the continent In an au tomobile. Doubts are expressed that the family will be able to stand the fatigue of the long Journey and it is expected that they will be forced to take a train before the Journey's end. Mr. Simon has started on his 3300 mile trip In a 16-horse-power machine and will take it leisurely on the way, expecting the trip to consume two months. His family, which accom panied him, consists of his wife and son, aged 6, and a daughter aged 10. The trip will be made entirely for recreation and Mr. Simon will stop at all places ot Interest along the route. He will also make an especial study of country roads, the cost of travel across the different states and the needs of the different sections In the way of public highways. He expects to reach Portland before the close of the Lewis and Clark fair If possible, but will not sacrifice any Interesting sights ulong tne road for this purpose. Mr. Simon has been In correspond ence with western people for some time and has practically mapped out his entire Journey and knows in ad vance which cities and towns will be visited. Pendleton Is given In this printed schedule and It Is thought he will stop here for several days to view the Umatilla county wheat har vest, which will be at its close by the time he arrives here. The family will camp out during nice weather and stop at towns, vil lages or farm houses during bad weather and make notes of all Inter esting features of the trip, to be used in magazine articles after the trip Is completed. After visiting Portland, the party will go down the Pacific coast to San Francisco and will return by train to Syracuse next winter. LOW WATER IN SNAKE.

If the river can be kept open to navigation it will be sent by boat to Lewiston and pos sibly by rail from there, and to do this the government dredgo Wallowa has been placed In service. Reports from the upper river say that the Snake Is at a lower stage than It has been for years, and Is fall lug at the rate of .1 of a foot every two clays, and It is now only one foot above the low nat, i mark. Before very long It is declared It will be below the zero point. If such proves to be true It Is feared that the stea mers plying In those wa ters will have to be taken out of com mission. In that event it would be ncressary to transport the grain crop to Lewiston by teams over rough and almost impassable roads If growers were anxious to get it to market this fall. But It Is supposed that many would wait until winter, when the river would again become navigable, before undertaking to move the crops. All the snow has melted from the mountains and there Is no possible chance for the river to Increase In depth unless constant rains should fall, but they never do at this season In that section, and so the probabili ties are very strong that ;the upper Snake will soon be closed to traffic Port Arthur's Floating Mine. Floating mines from Forth Arthur continue a menace to navigation. The Hslnch, for Tien Tsln, reports sighting one of these drifting dangers. The engines were stopped and for upward of an hour the captain and officers endeavored to explode It by means of rifle shots. The firing proving inef fectual, a boat was lowered In charge of Mr. Miller, the chief office, who placed the mine In tow, but after tow ing It for two hours It exploded with a terrific report Captain Pintt of the steamer Tunshun, reports a floating mine which was exploded at 100 yards' range. This is thought a safe distance. The only thing to be careful of Is to have sufficient over head covering as a protection against falling fragments. The steamer Kung Ping reports sighting a large spiked mine 23 miles from Howskl Island. Rifle shots were fired at It, and the mine exploded, several fragments of It falling upon the deck of the Tea sel. Pekln Times.
