Local life Insurance men declare
that the logical outcome of the In
surance Investigations now being con
ducted by the state of New York will
be the formation of mutual compan
ies on a small scale. In different parts
of the country, and the complete over
"uirow' of Ihv big; concerns which have
robbed the peopie mercilessly.
The Oregon Life Insurance con,"?"
ny Is now being organised in Fort
land, L. Samuels, formerly manager
of the Equitable In this state, being
the chief promoter. The capital
stock of the new company Is to be
1 100.000 and some of the best busi
ness men and financial managers of
the state are now Interested In It.
It proposes to organize on the mu
tual plan, under strict state regula
tion, and will furnish safe and relia
ble Insurance at a cheaper rate than
Is furnished by any of the old line
companies and there will be no chance
to defraud policy holders because the
concern will be confined to Oregon
and will be in fact, a state institution
Mr. Samuels Is now In Salem solic
iting- subscribers to the stock and Is
meeting with great success and will
soon visit eastern Oregon for the same
purpose.
The big companies are fighting the
new scheme with all the means at
their command, but the people are
slow to believe any of the assurances
of the old companies in the light of
recent Investigations and the Oregon
Life Insurance company promises to
supplant most of the old concerns in
this state.
This state has been a prolific field
for life insurance; 54,837,!21 was the
amount of Insurance In force In Ore
gon in 1S04.
fhe amdiint of life insurance writ
ten in Oregon in 1804 was $14,700,841.
and the premiums collected for that
year amounted to 1, 887, 994.
Premiums collected for five years
before this year, $6,723,103. The
death losses paid were $1,722,924 for
tbe same five years. Dividends paid
$314,249.
The total death losses and dlvidenli
were $2.337.1. Net premiums sent
out of Ciccon. after paying K..aes and
dividends, five years, $1,855,937.
It seems there Is a field for a
life Insurance company In Oregon. If
HAITISTS ARE PROSPEROUS.
Nearly 10,000 Members Revolted in
Oregon at the Eugene Conference.
Oregon Baptists show extraordinary
prosperity and growth. Among the
reports of different departments pre
sented during the meetings, the cor
responding secretary, Leonard W Ri
ley, showed the following: Thirty-
eight missionaries appointed during
the first year, and 70 churches and
out-stations supplied by these; In these
churches 384 baptisms are reported.
There are now 122 churches in the
state, with 9838 members. There
were 1074 baptisms during the year.
This number, taken with other addi
tions, make a total gain of 201S for
the year, but there have been some
losses, which place the net gain at
1353.
New churches have been organized
at Hood River, Madras, Echo, Eagle

ROBBED
PROPERTY TAKEN FROM THE '
GREAT EASTERN LAST NIGHT.
Two Hundred Dollar' Worth of Cloth
ing, Jewelry and Oilier Articles
Entrance Effected Through an Up.
I mt Hour Window Jewelry Was
Taken From a Show Case Directly
In Front of a Glass Door and Under
the Electric Light No Money Was
Taken.
MANY UNCERTAINTIES.
Some time last night the Great East
ern Department store was entered
through a rear window and robbed of
about $200 worth of clothing, Jewelry
and other articles. Evidently there
was but one burglar In the plot, and
he entered the store through one of
the upper windows In the rear of the
building. On one of the windows
opening from the balcony the Iron fire
door was not closed, and the man
climbed to this by means of a ladder
and then opened the window and en
tered.
This morning when the employes of
the store came down to work they
found the floor In the front littered
with cards and paper from which Jew
elry had been taken, and also some
tags off clothing had been thrown
about. The Jewelry was taken from
two show cases In front, and one of
them Is directly in front of the gloss
door where the robber would be visible
from the sidewalk. As the store Is
well lighted at night. It Is surprising
that the work was not noticed by some
passing.
Aside from the Jewelry a suit of
clothes, an overcoat, hat, shirts und
other articles of mou's attire were
taken, the tags from the same being
torn off and left on the floor. No
money was taken, as none was left in
the registers.
No clew has yet been found to the
burglar, although Marshal Coffmun
thought for a time that he was on
the track of the right man. No no
tice was given the sheriff's office of
the affair until 11 o'clock today, and
thus those officers will be handicap
ped, through the thief having plenty
of time in which to leave town.
Football at Portland and Raker City
Somewhat Disorganized.
Manuger Dean Goodman of the high
school football team, received a let
ter ycstenlay from the Baker City
manager saying that his team hud dis
banded for the Beason and would be
unable to keep Its date with the Pen
dleton eleven. However, luter In the
day a message came, saying that ef
forts were being made to kuep the
team going, and that they might be
ready for the game, after all.
Also, some difficulty Is being had
with the Portland high school eleven
owing to the objections that aro being
made by the professor In charge of
the athletic work. However, the mut
ter of a game with them at this place
on Thanksgiving duy is still pending,
and arrangements may yet be made
for the meet, which promises to be
the best one of the season here.
MUCKER'S AWFUL EXPERIENCE.
Strong Recommendation.
Lewlston, Idaho, Oct. 11, 1905.
To Whom It may Concern:
During the past seven years 1 have
been the Judge of the District Court of
the Second Judicial District of the
state of Idaho.
During all of said period the bearer,
Mr. George W. Coutts, has been a
member of the bar of said court,
practicing therein, and during two
years of said period he was the State
Prosecutor In said court.
I most cheerfully vouch for his In-,
tegrlty and ability and recommend
him to those having need of the serv
ices of an attorney.
I particularly recommend his quali
ties as a safe, conservative counsel or
as one capable of advising those hav
ing corporate or large business Inter
ests to transact. He has a clear, con
cise mind, and his executive ability
is good.
He is an able trial lawyer, and has
conducted some of the most difficult
of cases before me.
Most respectfully,
EDGAR C. STEELE.
Judge Second District of Idaho.

Calaboose Is Empty.
The city Jail Is empty for the first
time In a long while, and this morn
ing there was not even a drunk to
place inside the sacred walls to dispel
the solitude. For several days past
business has been dull In police court,
and as a result Marshal Coffman has
found difficulty In keep his hostelry
filled. However, It is not thought
likely that the Jail will remain vacant
very long.
To Inquire Into Weber' Death.

Last evening a meeting of locul foot

of the Commercial association for the
purpose of discussing the matter of
organizing a team In Pendleton this
fall. Sentiment was found to he in
favor of such a move, and at the meet

coach, and H. Wilson, physical di
rector of the gymnasium, as trainer.
However. Mr. Mooihouse stated today
that It would be Impossible for him to
fill the position of manager, and that
some one else will huve to be chosen.
One of the principal reasons for de
siring a town team Is to play a game
with the high school eleven, and
should the team be successfully organ
ized a game will be arranged with the
school boys for the near future.
There are quite a number of veteran
players In Pendleton, and It Is said
that if they can be induced to don
their togs once more, a strong, heavy
team can be secured. However, many
annear rather reluctant to go upon
he gridiron again, and It is not known
mhetnor or not tne move win
ly successful.
PLEASED WITH JALISCO.
Raulstone and Bickers Will Stay by
Their Investments.
John Raulstone, of this county, who
h been at Jalisco. Mexico, for some
months past, has returned to tne
United States and was In Portland
yesterdav. He will come up tonigm
or tomorrow for a visit with his pa
rents near Adams.
While nt Jalisco Mr. Raulstone and
H. E. Bickers have been associated In

to that country after a visit here. Mr.
Riekers is now In Son Francisco. For
a time the two men figured on. estab
lishlng an Ice plant at Jalisco, but did
not carry out the plan.
Mr. Raulstone speaks highly of the
country and of the Jalisco enterprise,
According to him thousands of peo
pie have been there during the sum

Shot Through Body, Lies In Cold 21
Hours.
Albert Hucker, the young man acci
dentally shot last Mondoy by his com
ponlon, Ross Greene, while the two
were out hunting In Timber canyon
neur Durkee, was brought to the Ba
ker City sanitorluni lost night - for
treatment. He Is 111 a very precarious
condition and small hopes are enter
tained for his recovery. This morning
Dr. May performed an operation on
him to remove the bullet, and the re
sult of this will tell In a great meas
ure whether he will recover or not.
Hucker was shot with a .44 Win
chester rifle through the abdomen. As
soon as young Greene saw what he
had done he hastened to the nearest
lumber camp and procured assistance
to remove the boy to Durkee, his
home. The rescuers started out, but
when they arrived in the vicinity of
where Hucker was supposed to be,
they could not find the spot. All duy
Monday and that night the searchers
scoured the woods vainly endeavoring
to discover the whereabouts of the
wounded boy but only succeeded in
finding him the next morning.
By this time Hucker was almost
dead from hte loss of blood, and the
severe cold had frozen both feet. Sev
eral times the searchers hud passed
within 10 feet of the place where he
lay, but was too weak to cry for
help or uttiact their attention. After
finding him he had to be brought 14
miles to Durkee, which rough trip in
his condition ulmost killed him. Had
it not been for his uncommonly strong
constitution he would probably have
died on the way.
Both of the boys are well known
ami liked In Durkee. and the sad ac
cident hus caused the utmost grief in
that community.
