The. puhllc land investigation has
reached Umatilla, county.
A camp of special land Inspectors
has Just been established throe tnllea
south of Ukluh, and the fences found
on government land aro being ordered
torn down In wholesale lota. Sur
veys are being made to determine
linen of nil homesteads that are fenc
ed. It Is ettlmnted that i'u miles of
fence on the public domain will be
torn down and rolled up In the south
ern part of the county, and that nu
merous homestead filings will he can
celled or contented as u result of the
visit of the Inspector to that portion
of the county.
Photographs of "residences" from
Pilot Itock to the Grant county line
have been taken and forwarded to the
department at Washington and a gen
eral Investigation of land entries is
now In progress.
In many places shacks worth from
IS to $10 each are holding valuable
claims. Some of these shacks have
been occupied by the homesteader.
.Some luive not. Some of the "resl
oences are naouunie. others are

conveniences of modern architecture
In their make-up.
The government took its tip from
the statement of the Kant Oregonlan
several Unys ago to the effect that
Ramblers and saloon - men of Pendle
ton who, In the last election, claimed
to be homesteaders and registered in
the outside precincts, are this year
rcRlsterliiK for the city election in
Pendleton.
Three Inspectors arc now in camp
.at the headquarters near ITklah and
have ordered down miles of fencing
which la found on public domain. They
are ulso Inking notes on homesteads
located In that portion of the county
and It Is thought to be the beginning
of a general Investigation of land mat
tern of this section of the state.
The story Is told of a "homesteader"
who runs a gambling game In this city
that some time after he had made fi
nal proof on his homestead, he was
seised with a virtuous desire to look
upon the land lie had "resided upon
and cultivated."
He drove out Into the country to
inquire where the land was located,
m hlch he had entered, held and made
proof upon. He had never seen the
tiumhers of the land and did not now
where It was located and so ho was
disappointed and came back with his
desire unsatisfied.
All such filings a to he rigidly .in

Cnusual difficulty Is being had by
the management of the high school
football team in securing games this
fall, and as a result the season's work
Is being somewhat retarded. At one
time It was thought that games would
be played with both the high schools
of Portland and of Boise. However,
the latter team has now backed down
entirely, and the Portland boys have
all but broken off negotiations. Also,
the Baker City team showed signs of
disbanding for a while, hut is now
training and will meet with the Pen
dleton players at Baker some time
during November. Aside from this
game, there is only one more of which
there is a certainty, and that is the
one with Walla Walla.
However, negotiations have been
taken up by Coach Smythe and Man-'
ager Goodman with Salem, Spokane.
Waltsburg and Lewlston. and it Is ex
pected that games can be arranged
with some of those places.
In view of the splendid showing
that the local boys have been making,
there will be much regret If they can
not secure a number of good games
for the season.
