The Trans-Mississippi Congress, which was In session In Portland all last week, adjourned Saturday nlpht after passing a compromise resolu tion on Chinese exclusion. The California delegation made a hard fight for a resolution favoring the rigid enforcement of the present exclusion law, with no excuses nor explanations whatever, but the con vention agreed upon a compromise which was bitterly opposed by Cali fornia. The resolution as passed Is as fol lows: "Our foreign trade with China is at present suspended and unable to discharge its cargoes at Chinese ports and Hongkong because of the refusal of the Chinese to handle American products. This unsatisfactory state of affairs is understood to have been produced by the Improper treatment to which the privileged classes of China have been subjected In the ad ministration of our laws prohibiting the admission of Chinese laborers to the United States, "There are now seeking admission to our country large numbers of per sons from Europe, Asia and Africa, many of whom are undeolrable and cannot be admitted without endan gering the high standards of Ameri- rd n c Itl.eiislilp. Therefore, wc re-! spectfully petition the president of! Hie I'ulted States to, If deemed expe dient., reiterate his Instructions for proper treatment of the privileged classes or i.ntna. to ascertain through the proper channels the reasons for the present boycott, and to appoint a commission to Investigate and re - port to congress, with recommenda - lions for a comprehensive lmmlgrn - tlon law framed to remove all unrea - amiable restrictions. but to exclude from the United States and our Insu lar possessions, all undesirable per sons from every eountrj;."

BOATS FOR UPPER RIVER. Many Plans Are Now Being Ijilrt to Handle River Traffic. Plans are maturing for the building up of a number of steamboats for service on the tipper Columbia liver between the portage railroad and l,eiston. Joseph Supple has been asked to .quote prices for the building of light-draft boats Mr. Supple said to the Oregon Dally Journal: "Indications are that contracts will soon be let for the building of a num ber of boats to ply on the upper Co lumbia river. It will be pos-ihla to have them ready for service by early sprnlg. which Is In time to bring the major portion of the grain crop to the portage road from the territory of the upper Columbia and Snake river valleys. In fact, the river will be at a better boating stage than than at any other season of the year." Mr. Supple says he will build any boats contracted for at Portland and ; ship them In knocked down form to Celllo. He has built and shipped a number of stem-wheelers and propel lers In this manner for service In Alaskan waters. Prosperous Powder Valley. J. O. Maxwell, one of the most ex perienced and widely known farmers In Powder valley, who wos in the city yesterday, stated that the crops of hay, oats and barley were not only large, perhaps above the average, but exceptionally good In quality and ho did not know of a farmer who would not make good money this season. All this, In spite of the fact that the sum mer had been dry, there was a very great shortage in the snow crop last winter, so that Irrigation this year has been limited and dry farming forced upon the ranchers, even where dry farming before has not been practiced to any great extent. Home of the fruit crops have not been good because of early frosts, hut vegetables and lute fruits are doing well and on the whole i Maker county farmers, ranchers and I horticulturists, as well an stockmen I have little, If anything to complain of ; lor their work In 1905.

The gold dollar souvenir coins of the Iwis and Clark exposition are already commanding a premium over the price at which they were origin ally sold by the exposition, which is a unique fact in souvenir coin history. This coin Is a novelty compared with other issues of the United StateB the hands of coin dealers command S3 each. Dealers had no reason to an ticipate a scarcity, and purchased only for immediate demands, as souvenir coins have not proved a profitable venture for them. The dollars dated 1905 continue to be sold by the expo sition at 12 each. Iliguvst Sawmill in United States. Col. Allen Miller, state Immigra tion commissioner, was an arrival In the city yesterday from Kootenai county, where he has been for the past few weeks. Col.

Orant County, warning him to look out for horses branded with J. J. on left shoulder.

' WANT CHINESE IN HAWAII. , Itlcti Planters orfcr to Give a llond for Every One Admitted. A private letter to the East Ore gonlan from Honolulu says the rich planters of the Islands desire the ad mission of from 50.000 to 80,000 Chi nese coolies for a period of from flvs to 10 years, the planters offering to give a personal bond of S1000 per head for each Chinaman admitted. The plan Is to have the Chinese re turn to China, not in a body on one date, but in installments, a few at a time, so the Islands would always be supplied with coolie labor and yet with a restriction upon Chinese to a limited degree. There is also a strong demand among- the merchants, laborers and small business men for the continu ance of the exclusion act and the most rigid enforcement of It, as theChl nese immigration drives out white men and builds up the Chinese mer chants.

THE PLAIN TRUTH. What More Can Pendleton People Ask For? When old-time residents and highly-respected people of Pendleton makes such statements as the follow ing, lt must carry conviction to every reader: D. W. Cook. 70 years old and re tired from active business, now living on Main street, says: "The dull, dragging pain In the small of my back felt as If two giants were tearing me apart and at times I felt so miserable that I could not stand or walk and was confined to my bed. Urinary weakness set In, especially at night, and I was falling physically every day. At this time I happened to read an ad about Doan's Kidney Pills and was much Impressed with the sincerity of the testimony, which was much similar to the one I am making now. I got a box of pills at the Brock & McComas Co. drug store and they helped me so that I continued using them until I had taken several boxes. Then I could eat. sleep and get around again without suffering the least on of physical pain. I Indorse all of the claims made for Doan's Kidney Pills." For sale by all dealers. Price tl cents.
