Terrible Ravage of Chlnctw Pirates
on North Coast.
Fish piracy Is the latest phase of
trouble experienced by fishermen off
the coast of Siberia, according to re
ports received In Seattle by the steam
er Corwin, which arrived here from
Nome Saturday, says the Seattle Star.
Indians living on the Siberian coast
who exist by means of fishing and
hunting tell of terrible experiences at
the hands of Chinese coolies who rav
age the const, feed the Indians whis
key and then steal tho fish. The fish
are then taken to Japan or China and
sold.
In order to stop this, three Indiana
traveled all the way from Siberia to
Capo Nome, where they told their
story to miners, who have arrivod on
the Corwin.
The Indians, or Esqulmos, say that
the method of the pirates is to ship a
sloop equipped with several small
boats. These boats cruise along the
coast In search of Esqulmos who fish
fur salmon. Once found the Indians
are spotted until they have secured a
good catch.
They are then approached by the
pirates, who give them "boore. " When
tho natives become hopelessly drunk
the pirates rob them of their fish, take
It back to the vicinity of tho schooner.
where they are picked up, after which
they cruise about in other localities.
When all the boats return with their
plunder the schooner makes sail. If
she has a sufficient load she returns
to China or Japan. If not she cruises
along the coast for BO or 100 miles,
where the same tactics are employed.
Finally several Esqulmos, after
failing to secure help from the Si
berian side, decided to put across the
water. Forty days across the wind
swept waters of Bering sea Indians
sailed and paddled their canoe. After
much hardship and suffering they
reached a point north of Nome.
The natives also state that the loss
of their fish is not the worst phase of
the trouble. Fierce quarrels and
fights result when the savages become
Intoxicated, and several have been cut
and slashed in a terrible manner and
often barely escape with their lives.

Buncombe county board of education
to admit his six children to the pub
lic schools of the county, was opened

attracted a great deal of attention In
this and other southern states and
promises to be highly sensational,

be traced for 100 years. Should the
suit be decided in favor of Ollliland,
the result will affect about 600 per

Agricultural Writer Booms the Lone
Star State.
A writer in the Agricultural Epito-
mlst, speaking of alfalfa growing In
eastern Texas, says:
Every agriculturist is aware of the
Important fact that grasses and for
age plants constitute the foundation
of agricultural prosperity and pro
gress. This Is but the re-statement
of a fact well known In every civilized
country for centuries. The value of
grasses and forage plants becomes of
vital Importance as population In
creases and open ranges decrease.
The leading forage plant ot the
southwest, alfalfa. Is the one of the
greatest value as a hay crop from
which from four to six cuttings dur
ing the summer can be had and which
affords excellent pasturage during the
fall and winter. This plant has a great
additional value as a soil renovator
and enrlcher. It is rich In nitrogen.
has a fair percentage of phosphoric
acid and a good percentage of potash,
the three elements of a complete fertilizer.
East Texas is ideal for the growth
of this crop. The California colony.
located at Lufkln, Angelina county,
Texas, planted an area of alfalfa a
year ago In May. The land, three or
four years In sod, was plowed, har
rowed and prepared under the Cali
fornia cultural system. In U2 days
from planting of the seed the alfalfa
had attained a growth of 27 Inches
high in blossom, ready for cutting.
In view of the fact that east Texas
is one of the very best dairy sections
in the United States, by reason of the
numerous grasses and forage plants
that can be so profitably grown Is a
very Important fact to every farmer
and dairyman who desires a home in
our genial, pleasant climate.

In securing an agreement with the
Burlington road to sign schedules with
the engineers hereafter.
At the time of the Burlington, or
"Q" strike as It was called, traffic
was demoralized on every rond con
necting with any of the branches of
the Burlington, and hundre Is of en
gineers ancf firemen camo west, Rav

In organizing Its forces and getting
traffic on a paying basis after' the
strike.
Engines were left standing on the
road, at sidetracks, Btatlons, anC in
round houses when the order came to
strike in 1885, anil the engineers be
ing thoroughly organized the company
could scarcely move a wheel, so com
plete was the tie-up.
The engineers had exhausted every
possible peaceable method and when
the company finally threw down the
gauntlet to them they declared the
strike and made It the bitterest In the
history of railroading.
The O. R. & N. got an excellent sup
ply of capable and efficient engineers
from the "Q" at the time of the strike
among them being the following ot
the La Grande division: J. H. Hooker,
T. F. Patty and I. A. Mayflcid, all now
deceased; F. R. Swaney, who ran a
helper at Kamela until 1900, when he
resigned and is now coduncting a cigar
store In La Grande; J. H. Alk'inc, who
lost an arm at La Grande four years
ago and Is now O. R. & JT. night fore
man at that place; John Von Fleet,
who lost an eye and Is now running a
mine engine In the Sumpter district;
George Hansen, who is now on the
Kamela helper; Henry Henson, John
Gardner and Louis Glvan, now on the
passenger run between La Grande and
Huntington; besides several others
who worked for a few years and then
moved on to other roads.
All these old employes of the "Q"
are well known In Pendleton and are
among the finest englnemen In the
west. They remained loyal to the
brotherhood and left their positions
instantly when the strike order was
given and have watched the long
fight with deep Interest. This victory
is at last enjoyed with keen delight by
them. They were all young men when
on the "Q" many of ' them having

Bow often do we hear women say: "It
seems as though my back would break,"
or "Don't speak to me, I am all out of
aorta?" These significant remarks prove
that the system requires attention.
Backache and " the blues" are direct
symptoms of an Inward trouble which
will sooner or later declare itself. It
may be caused by diseased kidneys or
some uterine derangement. Nature
requires assistance and at once, and

powers in all those peculiar ailments of
women. It bas been the standby of
Intelligent American women for twenty
years, and the ablest specialists agree
that it is the most universally success

medicine.
The following letters from Mrs.
Eolmes and Mrs. Cotrely are among
the many thousands which Mr. Pink
bam has received this year from those
whom she has relieved.
Surely such testimony is convincing.
Mrs.J.G. Holmes, of Larimore, North
Dakota, writes:
TWr Mra Plnkham: .
" I have suffered everything with backacb
and womb trouble I fa the trouble run on
until my system was In such a condition that

My backaches and headaches are all gone and
I suffer no rain at mv menstrual period.
whereas before I took Lydia K. Pinkbam's

Mrs. Emma Cotrely, 109 East 12th

Constitutionality of the Washington
Law Is Questioned.
The validity of the annual poll tax
ot 12 for road purposes Imposed by
state law upon residents of the coun
try districts was attacked Saturday at
Scuttle by a demurrer served upon
Prosecuting Attorney Mackintosh by
John V. Huberts, its attorney for V.
I S. Ditnner. nays a Walla Walla dis
patch.
The case is a test case and was in
stltuled by the county commissioners
for the purpose of establishing the
Blatus of the law. This action was
taken in recognition of the fact that
doubts of the constitutionality of the
statute were general, rendering work
of the collectors unduly difficult, and
bringing the cost of the collections
nearly up to the value of the returns.
The statute is attacked upon the
ground that It Is class legislation, as
It Imposes the tax only upon men be
tween the uges of 21 and 60. A case
from Jefferson county decided by the
supreme court is claimed as authority
for believing that tho law can be suc
cessfully attacked.
In this Instance It was an ordinance
and not an act of the legislature, that
was overthrown, and an additional ex
ception was made of firemen, but the
defendant In the present suit claims
that the principle In the two cases Is
the same.

Rome, Nov. 20. The matter of the
canonization of Christopher Columbus
which has been under consideration
in the congregation of rites for some
time, will be given a new Impetus by
the express order of Plus X. Next
May the fourth centennial of the
death of Columbus will be celebrated
under Spanish initiative, and It Is
considered desirable at the Vatican
that his canonization shall be coinci
dent with the anniversary.
Thousands of bishops from all over
the world have petitioned the Vatican
to have the canonization of Columbus
considered by the congregation
rites. A work published under Plus
IX, designed to prove that Columbu
was the father of an illegitimate son
caused a temporary stay of the cause
of canonization, but it was resumed
under tho late pope Plu X, soon
after his election, received a memorial
from many Italian bishops, headed by
the Archbishop of Turin, nsklng for a
new consideration of the case, and the
pope has now given orders that a def
inite decision must soon be reached.

Calve, the minister from Costa Ittca,
who is the chairman of the com
mittee In charge of tho arrangements
for the next Pan-American conference,
had a conference with Secretary of
State Itoot concerning the matter and

President Roosevelt will probably
refer to the advisability of holding
such a conference in his message tn
congress, and it Is expected that soon
after the opening of congress the com
mittee will hold a meeting to deter
mine tho program and to doclde,
where the conference Is to be held.
There Is a strong sentiment In favor
of holding the conference in Brazil,
but the Argentine republic has also
made a strong bid.
Most of the projects endorsed by the
second conference, which was held In
the City of Mexico, four years ago,
have been carried out. Tho sanitary
conference recommended has recent
ly closed Its labors. A coffee confer
