PORTLAND IS RESPONSIBLE.
The Evening Telegram says that
Portland is not responsible for the
poor markets now afforded eastern
Oregon range cattle.
Thls statement was made In answer
an article In the East Oregonlan a
few days ago. reciting the fact that
Umatilla. Baker and Grant counties
re filled to overflowing with fat cat-"
tie, but that the market Is so poor
and prices bo low that cattle men are
discouraged, and the very l'fe of the
great Industry Is threatened by these
conditions.
The East Oregonlan, tn the article
mentioned, laid the blame for the poor
market upon Portland capital, and it
takes occasion now to repeat this
statement.
The Portland Chamber of Com
merce Bulletin for October, gives the
average deposits In Portland banks
at $42,000,000. This great mass of
wealth is lying Idle most of the year,
its- owners not having the business
activity to Invest it in needed Institu
tions, such as packing plants, canner
ies, and other Industries that would
Afford a market for Inland empire
stuff which Is now a drug, and which
would return handsome Incomes from
the investment.
Portland is extremely Jealous of any
Invasion of her trade territory In cen
, tral and eastern Oregon, by any out
side rival, and yet Portland takes no
venture to Increase that trade and
bind It to her. If eastern Oregon cat
tle, sheep, hay and wheat are ship
ped eastward it is Portland's fault, for
she can afford to handle all the entire
output of the eastern Oregon counties.
Eastern Oregon will develop In ma
terial resources Just as rapidly as
Portland provides a .market for the
products of the state. That city is the
market center of the state and her idle
tap I til I should make provision to take
care of the products of central and
eastern Oregon, as rapidly as they are
produced and sent to her markets.
Any other arrangement will alienate
central and eastern Oregon from Port
land In time. Those vast sections will
learn to look elsewhere for an outlet
and will not depend on Portland.
It Is up to Portland to build packing
plants. Her $42,000,000 deposits
should be utilized. Money is of no
value, except as it is used. Idle money
is of no more value to the country
than so much soap.
JURY SYSTEM A FARCE.
At Miller, S. D., last week Judge
Whiting "roasted" a Jury to a turn.
The Miller Sun says It was the "most
scathing rebuke ever given Jurors for
failure to agree." The defendant was
charged with an offense against a 13-year-old
girl.
As the words, "vile wretch, low vil
lain, etc.," fell from the Judge's Hps
as he referred to the defendant and
as the Jurors were told that they
lacked reasoning powers or were In
fluenced by sympathy with the crime
the evidence of the accused's guilt be
ing overwhelming, the men sat speech
less, their faces turning to ashen pale.
Finally the Judge bade the Jurors go
with the parting shot that If the man
whom they failed to convict should
commit an offense against their
daughters they themselves would be
to blame.
The Jury stood nine to three for
conviction.
A Jury law which would have ena
bled a three-fourths majority to bring
In a verdict would have convicted the
accused In this case. Justice would
have been done so far a the courts
could k and the Jury system would
not huve suffered unotlier serious loss
In the confidence of the public.
The three-fourths verdict Is almost
an Inevitable result in the course of
time. It will make jury fixing much
more difficult ami promote the cause
of Justice ami common respect for the
jury n.s all Institution.

Heretofore It has been extremely

access to any of the secret poker
games running in several Pendleton
saloons, hut through the vigilance and
patience of the East Oregonlan.
complete set of signals, by which ad
mission may be gained to any of these
places, has been secured and Is here
with published.
A big. burly "lookout" is always
found guarding the outside door to
all these back-room games, and the
door leading Into the gambling room
Is always securely lucked. The set of
signals which this doorkeeper uses In
passing information to the gamblers
Inside is as follows:
One rap I am going downstairs to
get a drink. Keep on playing. All Is
sa f e.
Two raps Safety. N'o one In sight.
Three raps Open the door quick.
Here comes a sucker with plenty of
money. Let him In before he changes
his mlud.
Four raps Safety. That was only
a councilman coming up the stairway.
Keep on playing in perfoct ease and
comfort.
Five raps Danger. Here comes a
stranger. May be a new member of
the Law Enforcement league. Walt
until I "size him up." Don't play
loudly for a moment. Talk In whis
pers. Six raps Safety. It was a Pilot
Rock farmer. There Is no Law En
forcement leugue at Pilot Rock. Ad
mit the gentlemun. He is looking for
a game.
Seven raps Safety. That Is only a
policeman coming up the stairs. Play
In safety.
Eight rups Extreme danger. Hold
your breath for a moment while I In
vestigate. A gentleman whom I saw
talking with n member of the Law
Enforcement leugue Is coming up the
stairway.
Nine raps Safety. It was only a
rock crusher salesman looking for a
member of the city council. Let him
In for a conference with the council
man.
Ten raps Drinks are coming.
Eleven raps The merchant who
lost his "wad" last Saturday night Is
coming back for reveuge. Make room
at the table for one more.
Twelve rnps Here comes a player
from across the street, flame broke
up over there. Two farmers carried
away the entire "swag."
Thirteen raps (given vigorously)
Danger. Be ready to fly. The look
out on the next block says that the
lookout on the next block above says
that two members of the Law En
forcement league have come Into the
upper end of the street talking seri
ously. He ready to fly. Unlock the
back door and count out your chips
and money. The two are still ap
proaching down .Main street, still
talking seriously. Extreme danger
still exists. They still approach. They
are now on Court street and still ap
proaching, talking more Berlously.
Open the back door. They are Joined
by a third member. They are now but
two blocks away and still approach.
Be ready to fly down the back stairs.
They stop on the corner and talk,
with their heads close together. They
arc Joined by a fourth and more vi
cious member, and still talk with
heads more closely together. They are
now looking at the front window of
the saloon and nodding this way.
Flee! They come, four abreast!

OLD RELICS UNEARTHED.
Explorations made at an old Toltec
pyramid on the Magucylotos hacenda
in the slate of Puebla have disclosed
the fact that the structure was built
of clay bricks, which proves It to be
far older than the Aztec monarcny,
and possibly older even than the Tol
tec occupation of the country. Sev
eral elaborately carved figures were
found renresentlng men In Chinese
dress and with marked Chinese feat
ures. The figures probably represent
ed warriors. Antiquarians are much
puzzled over the matter, for the evl
dence points to Chinese settlement In
Mexico In the past ages.

TASMANIA; AT THE FARTHKH
KST KM) OV TIIK WOULD.
"Consul Harris of Chemnitz. Ucr
muny. furnishes nil Interesting article
on the Island of Tasmania, lying u few
miles off the southern coast of Aus
tralia. The information Is derived
from the latest publications issued by
the Tusimtnlun government, and may
be useful to American manufacturers
and merchants. The consul writes:
"The latest publications Issued by
the Tiismunlnti government for the
benefit of those Interested In her fu
ture contain some very interesting In
formation. A concise statement .of
some of the facts concerning tins
country can not full to be useful to
American merchants null manufactur
ers, for the development of so small u
colony as even Tasmania may offer
them some opportunity of winning
new markets. Tasmania Is probably
the most neglected, while at the same
time one of the most attractive of all
the Hrlllsh Australasian colonies.
"Us total area contains 16.77S.UU0
acres, of which one-fourth only has
been alienated. There are still 11.
822.4SU ucres in the Island, generally
speaking, whose forests have never
heard the ling of the woodsman's ax.
or whose sod hus been upturned by
the farmer's plow. This island with
Its virgin soil and healthful climate
will ultimately pluy an Impoiinnt part
In the world's commerce for the rea
son that Its location, although Isolated.
Is still sufficiently fuvoruble to secure
a commanding position in the trade of
Australasia and the Islands of the Pa
cific. "The . climate Is healthy and con
genial. The winters are wurmcr than
those of England, and snow seldom
falls except at high altitudes. The
summers are hot. although less op
pressive than those In Australia, and
the air Is dry and rarely sultry'- The
rainfall varies greutly at different sea
sons of the year. On the north coast
It Is from IS to 30 Inches. The west
and south coasts ure always very wet.
"On the whole the climate of Tas
mania is so pleasant that many people
In Australia go there every year to
escape the heat and dust of the con
tinent. The central parts of the Island
are at an elevation of 1000 to 3000
feet, and it Is easy to get a consider
able change of climate by traveling a
short distance. I'pon these upland
districts are large hikes which fcvJ
waterfalls and swift running streams
which are destined one day to be a
source of vast wealth for Industrial
purposes.
"Tasmania Is nearly us large as Ire
land, and Is divided into 18 counties.
The Island abounds in good timber,
and the lands are excellent for agri
cultural purposes. Some pa-ts are
heavily timbered with good and mer
chantable wood, and minerals and ores
are found in the upland district. Dor
sey county contains some valuable
gold and tin mines which ure being
worked with profit. Launccston, the
chief town In northern Tasmania, Is
connected by a direct line of steamers
with Melbourne and Sydney. On the
west coast the country Is broken with
high mountains and traveling Is Im
practicable. These difficulties, how
ever, are being overcome by an exten
sion of railways and by building roan
ways through primeval forests."
WOMAN'S I.AWITI. PKKY.
"There Is no decrease In marriage,"
declared Mr. Plowden 111 dray's Inn
hall In London, the other day. "It Is
simply a temporary lull In that husband-hunting
chase which has gone on
as long as civilization.
"Although some women have adopt
ed business careers for themselves,
they have no serious intention of ceas
ing to hunt their lawful prey.
"Sooner or later woman will be tired
of her new role, and will go back like
a good girl to get the husband whom
she should never have ceased to hunt."
"Woman Is never so happy as when
she Is doing something for a man,"
was another of Mr. Plowden's cherish
ed convictions.

good health. A woman's good health
