DAILY BAJTT ORJBOONIAJT, PENDLETON, OREGON, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 28, 1005. EIGHT PAGES. PAG, BEL II CANADIAN VIEW OP THE NORTHWEST The Vancouver (R C.) World, in a recent Issue, given a resume of rail road building and resources in the northwest, In the following graphic manner: When we speak of the northwest In this connection we do not mean the Canadian Oranary. the home of the Manitoba "hard," and the present theater of the most prosperous agri cultural development the world has ever known. The section to which we refer lies north of the state of California, and is bounded by the British Columbia line and is compris ed within the limits of the states of Oregon and Washington. advantage of these opportunities will reap a rich reward. The war between the railway Titans means much for the people of the Pacific roast. When railway magnates, who conspire to fleece the communities through which they laid their lines, fall out, the public always gets what Is coming to It. The Paci fic northwest is well watered and tim bered. It contains many valuable minerals, economic and precious, and the fer tility of its soil has been proved these many years by the abundant crops that It has given In return for the intelligent labor of the husbandman. In California the crops often fail because of the drought; but In Ore gon and Washington such a visitation Is never known, and there Is never it failure. In quality the t fruit and grain products of Oregon and Wash ington are not to be mentioned in the same breath with those of Brit ish Colurubli and our northwest, and they will never command so high u figure; but the yield Is always large, and what is lacking in quality is often made up In quantity. It Is stated that In a single county in Oregon the produce of the current year is valued at 7. 000.000, and similar re ports are received from other sec tions. The railways cannot provide a suf ficient number of cars to move the crops and the companies are over burdened with business and money. Their profits exceed all precedent. and they are preparing to build lines in every direction throughout the territory under their control. A fierce rivalry has sprung up between Hill and Harriman, the two great American Napoleons of railway con struction, and there is every indica tion that before the warfare between those men comes to an end the pub lic will have reaped great benefit. Oregonlans have needed for many years a system of railways that would afford them the facilities for moving their crops cheaply and quickly. Without such means the farmer whose ranch was situated re mote from the main lines was placed at a serious disadvantage, and often had the unhappy experience of seeing his proluce rot In the barns. Happily, the war between the big . railway men has changed all that and spurs and extensions are being run In all directions. Asa natural consequence the coun try is being rapidly settled and new people with some new ideas and gen erally with plenty of capital are flocking In. Soon every little farm ing community In Oregon and Wash ington will have a line brought within easy reach of their farms, and every facility now enjoyed by farmers in the older settled districts will be en joyed by farmers In the hitherto re motest sections of the two states. The same changes are In progress In Manitoba and the northwest of our own country. The Canadian North ern and the Canadian Pacific are ex tending their lines through the fertile belt, and the Grand Trunk PaclQc has awarded its first contracts for the construction of a line to the Pacific ocean. On all sides the greatest activity is manifested. The railways are earning more money than their most roseate dreams promised them. Div idends are large, and the gigantic sur pluses are being applied to extensions and feeders and to the building of more cars and locomotives. The car and engine capacity of all the western lines has been more than doubled In three years, and still there are not enough cars to move the ton nage that Is offering. The west has grown too fast for the railways, and the companies had ku build more lines and cross or step aside and allow other and more pro gressive companies to take up the burden where they had laid it down. It is only lining justice to the com panies now In the field to say that they have recognized their obligations and are moving energetically to pro vide extensive transportation facili ties. At the east and in Europe the whole movement Is westward. The trend of population Is toward the Pacific, where the mighty Fra ser and the majestic Columbia flow down to the sea. There Is every rea son then to believe that this whole coast is on the eve of a great awak ening and that every community and every man who Is prepared to take B.VITIaKSIUPS OK GVNItOATS. Itonaimrto's llcoommeiiiliitloii Kafer. ly WatoJiwI for. Washington, Nov. 23. Naval offic ers are looking forward with keen in terest to the recommendations upon which Secretary Bonaparte Is at work respecting the Increase of the navy. He Is known to favor battleships and torpednboats, and It Is expected he will be Influenced by the naval senti ment, which seems now to be against any other type of ships, especially the old-time commerce destroyers and gunboats. It is held among some of the sec retary's advisers that the service has enough of the ships of the armored cruiser and the gunboat class, and as an evidence of this exnmples are given of the policy of sending to the navy yards the ships of such types which are considered as no longer available for duty. In nearly every case where It has been a question of the repair of a ship of war of the Intermediate type, the department has determined there shall be only such work done, as will prevent the ship from deter iorating, and no provision Is made for restoring the ship for active duty. With this state of affairs before the secretary, he Is likely to accept the view that the service shall be main tained by having battleships and tor pedoboats, provided for in the next naval hill. It is understood that Secretary Bonaparte, while he intends to follow this policy, will adopt the numerical proportions suggested by the general board. Itament will witness an Investigation Into the whole subject. This inquiry will probably bo undertaken by a special parliamentary committee hav ing power to summon witnesses. In his lust report to parliament the su perintendent of Insurance for Canada pointed out the necessity for the amendment of the Insurance law, which Is not now suited to the require ments of the business. Before the law is amended the Inquiry will be held, which will lay bare any Irregu larities and restore public confidence In the stability of the Canadian insti tutions which have suffered as a re sult of the revelations In New York. luhnn Records IImmI of. Washington, Nov. 23. After having carefully stored for years the offic ial records of the occupation of Cuba, and having paid $600 a year for such storage, the government today turn ed over the entire mass of documents to the waste paper man. From these records many costly, If not valuable, volumes have been compiled and printed at public expense, and the general opinion was that the original records were worthy of preservation. If for nothing more they would be valuable In that they present the exact facts regarding General Leonard Wood's expensive regime In that Island. According to the results of the congressional Investigation, that regime was also worth all It cost. THY TO PLEASE THE READF.ltS. ;ei-glu Ilnpti.Ht Conference. Macon, Ga., November 23.

But Cutherlne had a lovely doll which was her constant compan ion, but hud seen much trouble, inci dent to which Marie, which was the doll's name, had lost much of her golden locks, and finally closed her beautiful blue eyes because a spring In the back of her head went wrong. Catherine was disconsolate and wept continually, and sometimes even howled, until at last her father, unable to withstand the overpowering agony of her grief, took Marie to a doll hos pital and ordered a new spring put In her head, so her beautiful eyes might work once more. But Catherine grew Impatient and really couldn't wait any longer, so she went ou( 'ltn lne streets, and there she came upon the sweetest little doll Imaginable In the person of a little baby ,with soft, and rosy cheeks, and wavy tresses, and looking Just too cunning for anything as she lay asleep In a gorgeous baby carriage. Cath erine at once, under her breath, said to herself that It was the prettiest doll she had ever seen; So she took hold of the handle of the carriage and Just wheeled It with Its precious freight on towards home. Arrived there, shi took the child In her arms and sitting on the doorstep played with It In su preme happiness. But when It cried she was alarmed and laid It 'down and fled to her mother. Meanwhile Mrs. Frank Collins hnd lost a baby to which she was very much attached, and woke up the en tiree police force of the district to find her precious little child, and. follow ing the trail that unfolded Itself. came upon the carriage and the child and little Catherine. The latter ex plained that It seemed to be the nicest doll she had ever known, even nicer than "avift Marie." nnd she hnJ Just cuddled to It. as she couldn't find any nicer one. The police smiled.

Close upon the report that the Americans of the Isle of Pines, near the southern coast of Cuba, have declared their Independ ence from Cuba and have established their own, Independent government, comes the news that the revolutionary movement was supported by a clique of wealthy Americans, who have a de cidedly practical object In view. It Is stated on. what Is believed to be good authority, 'hat an American syndicate Intends to make the Isle of Pines a second Monaco. It is said to be their Intention to erect upon the Island a magnificent casino and a large number of expensive residen ces, which will be rented for the win ter season to wealthy people who wish to spend the winter in that beau tiful climate and, at the same time, enjoy the sport and excitement which a large gambling house would offer to them.

Every day hundreds of letters are received by President Roosevelt, asking him to Insert certain recommendations to congress In his annual message, Among the requests which President Roosevelt received and Is now con' slderlng. Is one from Governor Doug' las, of Massachusetts, recommending legislation looking to the removal of the tariff on hides and a change in the foreign relations of this country. It Is understood that the request of Governor Douglas Is due to the fact that the leather trust has threatened to advance the price of sole leather. This would mean a serious blow to the shoe industry of this country and would be particularly felt In the state of Massachusetts, where the shoe In dustry has reached the greatest de velopment. CANADA WILIi INVESTIGATE. Our. Nortltem Neighbor Going After Insurance Companies. Ottawa, Ont., Nov. 23. Although no definite announcement has been made to that effect, It is understood In well Informed circles that the Can adian government Is at present seri ously considering the advisability of following the example of the Ameri can government and Institute an In vestigatlon of the methods of the Ca nadian Insurance companies. It is privately conceded that the coming session of the Dominion par "Jolly American Trump." A true Yankee story, presented us an interesting Yankee play, portrayed by real New England actors, piloted by a veteran manager from the Green Mountain state, are the promises held forth by U. D. Newell, who will pre sent for the first time In this city at the Frazer on Saturday. December 2. his sensational comedy drama. "A Jolly American Tramp." In this play the author, E. E. Kidder, who wrote "A Poor Relation" and "Peaceful Val ley" for Sol Smith Russell, Is said to have outdone himself, for In this piece he gives us deft character delinea tions that, we are told, almost rank co-equal with Charles D(ckens' crea tions, so true to nature are they said to be. In this play the author touches that well-spring of emotion, the heart. and, firmly grasping It, holds his au dience entranced until the curtain rings down upon the final scene, and every wrong has been righted, the Just rewarded and the guilty punished. Mannger Newel has secured tt good cast for its portrayal, among whom are the names of Clark Ross. IJeiilne Farnsworth, Cora I.ee Jefferson, Vir ginia Melville, Vera Wilson and Wil liam Lee. The locale of the play will be truthfully depicted and the cos tuming will he appropriate. Thp Great McF.wcn Coniiiiy. The great McEwen company will appear at the Frazer theater for five nights, commencing Sunday. Novem ber 26. The company, under the di rection of the Northwest Theatrical association, has been greatly enlarged by the addition of many vaudeville exponents. The great McEwen's magic has been thoroughly renovated. . Many new features have been added, some of which have never before been shown In America. It must be conceded that the great McEwen's manipula tion of cards is the cleverest on the American stage today. Those who have seen him previous to this year's tour should not hesitate about going again. This year's performance Is en tirely different from any previously offered by him. Hypnotism Is u very prominent feature of McEwen's endeavors. 100 Reward, 9100.

The secretary of the Federation of Churches and Christian organization, predicts that there will he a popula tion of 8.227,647 within a 19-mile rn-'iiM ot the city hall of fit eater New York in the year 1920. This radius Includes all of Staten Island and 74 Incorporated places in New Jersey, nil of which territory Is really a part of New York, inasmuch as It domiciles New York business men und workers. A population of that size Is not an uncomfortable one, and It seems that we can get along better If we suspend for an Indefinite period President Roosevelt's antl-suicidc talk. How Immeasurably Inadequate the means of transportation will he In that year can be judged from the fact that there are now a little ovet half this figure claimed for 1920 dwelling In the territory named, and at time transportation facilities are over crowded to excess and during "rush" hours there Is a regular scramble and tussle for room Just to stand on other people's feet. Many of these can walk to and from their homes, If they choose to do so, as the distance Is not great. Possibly the citizen of 1920 will have legs, and will use them Absurd Ballot Law. Triers seems to be little doubt that there will be a sharp and decisive campaign against the present ballot. and that the legislature will order an other form to be used. The present ballot would seem to have been con ceived for the sole purpose of putting In the honest citizen's vote at a risk, not only but also putting all possible obstacles In the way of his casting his ballot properly. It Is the most absurd ballot that has ever been used by voters anywhere. From Affluence to Poverty. The saddest of the duties that fall lo the lot of the dally chronicler of the news as It flies, Is to record the death in obscurity of one who had In former years borne a prominent part In life, filled high positions, at large salaries, and then, by the fortunes of war or politics, the accidents that beset life. or the misfortunes that, finding one of their tribe bound full chisel for man. at once puck up all their belong ings and post haste follow swiftly after their leader In order to be In ul the death, so that the proverb may be proved true that misfortunes never come singly. Strangely enough, it Is In this city, with its great attractive power, that we hear of the death, every now and then, of some one who has been distinguished In Europe, and slip by slip has fallen Into the grinding mill of the metropolis on this side of the ocean, and fills at last humble grave. The latest of these was an old French soldier who suc cumbed to pneumonia at the age of 74, after living eight years In n base ment, In the heart of the French colony. This was General Jules Marl us Bergert, a member of the Imperial guard of Trance, member of the ex ecutive committee and of the military committee of the Paris commune of 1871. author of the order Which brought death to the hostages, Includ ing Archbishop of D'Arbols; and when this man died he was wntchman for the New York gas house. In France his relatives still enjoy wealth, but long since refused to recognize him because of his part In the commune. His widow Is in such poverty that she has been obliged to give up one of the two rooms she and her husband occupied. Novel School Hoiihc. New York has the most novel school house In the world.
