THE PLACE
SAVED FROM THE SUGAR TRUST.
Lands Will Revert to Homesteaders
Instead of Speculators.
The Klamath Falls Express makes
public some Interesting facta as fol

bordering on the lower Klamath lake
In California, had a narrow escape
from being gobbled up by dummies
In the Interest of the sugar trust Just
before the state of California ceded
these lands to the federal government.
Some narrow-minded, or Interested
people declare that the state lost 180,

lands to the United States government
In order that they might be reclaim

sidered that these lands will, in a few
years, be opened to actual settlers In
80-acre tracts, the loss of $60,000 to
th estate of California will add 750
prosperous families to the population
of that part of the state, each on 80
acres of flrxt quality soil under the
homestead law at Just the cost of re
clamation and Irrigation, while these
lands would have cost the settlers, in
addition to reclamation, from 110
to J 60 an acre. If they had gone Into
the hands of land-grabbers.
It Is alleged that the sugar trust
was on the point of gobbling up these
valuable lands through dummies,
when the plans were frustrated by the
legislature of California ceding the
lands to the government. It will be
remembered that there was some op
position in the legislature to the ces
sion of these lands at the time, and It
can readily be imagined where the
sinews of war came from to oppose
the cession.
It is stated that the purpose of the
sugar trust In acquiring these lands
was to rent or sell them to parties
wh would raise sugar beets to sup
ply an Immense factory to be erected
on the ground.
One hundred and fifty Christmas
dinners will be served to poor fami
lies in Pendleton by the Salvation
Army on Saturday, December 23.
Arrangements are being made be
tween Captain Holder, of the Salva
tion Army, and City Superintendent
Traver, of the public schools to have
each pupil In the publio schools bring
one penny, one potato and one apple
to school on Thursday, December 21,
to be collected by the officers of the
army and used In preparing the
Christmas dinners.
The dinners will be prepared In
boxes, each box to contain the entire
dinner for each family to be served,
and on Saturday evening before
Christmas, these boxes will be deliv
ered over town to a list of families al
ready prepared.
The dinners will consist of chicken,
potatoes, salads, celery, cranberries,
enke and other substantial and plain
foods and will be prepared by exper
ienced cooks.
Parents and pupils are urgently re
quested to see that the penny, the po
tato and the apple are taken to school
by each pupil, on December 21. The
money so collected will be used in
purchasing the chickens for the din
ner. the potatoes for the salads and
the apples for pies Other provisions
will also be purchased with the money
derived from this collection and It Is
hoped that Pendleton responds liber
ally and cheerfully to this mission.
The army officers find quite a
number of needy families In the city
and all such have been listed and
each will be served with a dinner on
Saturday evening.
On Monday night. December 25, the
Salvation Army will give a Christmas

The finest contour of a female face, the

scant hair. Scant and falling hair. It is
now known, la caused by a parasite that
burrows into the scalp to the root of the
hair, where It saps the vitality. The lit

burrowing are called dandruff. To cure
dandruff permanently, then, and to stop

QUALITY CHEAPNESS
When a customer has once been educated to quality ho will seldom
seek a store that appeals merely to the desire to save pennies.
Our policy is not to offer special lines of goods, at, or below :'.
In the hope of selling other goods at a sufficient advance to cover the
loss. We believe In making a legitimate profit on everything we sell,
and we do sell a great many things at exceptionally close prices. If
you simply want bargain groceries, pay the cheap price and pet thorn;
if you want reliable goods, the kind that brings you back fir more,
give, us a trial and be convinced. ,
No prizes go with our goods. Just satisfaction and prompt service,
and courteous and liberal treatment are assured at the up-to-date

Prudent people forestall -nch a possibility by creating a fund for

Tills Is Not Often Done as It Is Dif
ficult to Get tlie Indians' Consent
Severn! of Mr. Usher's Paintings,
Fritn Moorhonse I'hotograplis, Are
on Exhibition on Main Street Mr.
Fisher Will IjiIct Go South and to
New York, and Then to Paris Mr.
Fisher Ii Confining His Work for
tiie Most Part to Portraits.
Frederick Fisher, the artist. Is
again In Pendleton and has been vis
iting with his friend, Major Lee Moor
house, for whom he painted several
Indian pictures when last here. From
here it is Mr. Fisher's intention to
leave for the south, where he will
spend some little time, nfter which he
will go to New York. From there he
Intends going to Paris, and he says
he may remain four or five years
this time.
One of the objects of Mr. Fisher's
present visit Is to paint an Indian
from life, something which few ar
tists have done owing to the difficulty
In getting subjects to pose. However,
Major Moorhouse has promised to use
his Influence in securing a suitable
Indian for the occasion, and It is
probable the painting will be made.
While In the city Mr. Fisher has
several of his paintings, those made
from the Moorhouse pictures, on ex
hibit at the Henneman cigar store.
Also, It Is probable that he will leave
a number of them with Major Moor
house, should they not be all sold
when he leaves .
Practically all of the work which
Frederick Fisher does Is along the
line of portrait painting. This he
holds Is the most interesting, though
he has also done some anlmnl nnd
landscape work. For a time Mr.
Fisher was engaged as an artist on
one of the Chicago dallies, but does
not like Journalistic work. He has
never done any cartooning. While he
usually outlines a sketch before mnk
lng a painting, he made a very satis
factory portrait of his father recently
without the aid of such. At that time
the old gentleman, who is the senior
member of the firm of Fisher-Thor-
sen & Co., was sitting in a character
istic position. On the spur of the mo
ment his son requested him to remain
while he painted his portrait, and
though he work was hastily done, it
was lifelike and Is highly prized by
tne elder Fisher.
