Commercial National Bank Pendleton, Oregon , X A. C. RUBY, President W. L. THOMPSON, Cashier I LIFT QUARANTINE OPPOSE RESTRICTIONS VPON COMMERCE. The Stockmen Vigorously Combat the Interference of the Federal Quar antine With Legitimate Business Deadlock Between the O. R. & N and the Exporting Interests, Under Present Conditions Which Both the Railroad People and the Stockmen Claim Arc Irrutiomil. To have the federal quarantine lift ed Is now the slogan of eastern Ore gon sheepmen, and It was strongly sounded at the Umatilla county sheep men's convention, held here Saturday. Because they wish the quarantine raised Is one of the reason why the growers of this county have been so interested in the matter of the county Inspector, and insisted so strenuously that a new official be appointed. Quarantine Htirtx Business. It Is not for sentimental 'reasons that the sheepmen desire the rigid federal quarantine lifted in this state, but because the enforcement of the same promises to demoralize the bus iness if continued much longer. Under a law of congress all of the state west of the Mississippi have been under a quarantine against scabbles for nearly two years past. As a result It has been necessary for sheep to be dipped whenever they are shipped from one state to another. Sheep intended for the mutton mar ket must be dipped at once, while those destined for ranges In other states must be dipped twice. Unless these requirements are met no rail road can accept sheep for shipment except under one condition this Is, that sheep for mutton may be taken without dipping and placed In cars labeled, "Exposed sheep for slaugh ter." O. R. & N. Refuses Exposed Slieep. However, when such sheep are hauled by a company It Is necessary that their cars and yards be thor oughly disinfected afterwards. Con sequently, they do not care for such business, and at the meeting held here Saturday C. J.MIllls, O. R. & N. livestock agent, stated that his com pany would no longer receive sheep under such conditions. However, the Northern Pacific has not yet taken such action, but it Is feared will do so most any time. Besides, Pendleton Is the only point In eastern Oregon having connection with the Northern Pacific, and sheep from other coun ties must be hauled by the O. R. & N. company, or not at all. Mutton Trade Mont Hurt. It is especially to the mutton busi ness that the quarantine is Injurious, for It virtually cuts off Oregon and Washington sheepmen from the east ern markets. Dipping is a severe process, and sheep subjected to it de crease in weight and are not well adapted' for the mutton market. Con sequently, a grower who has, say 6.- 000 sheep which are good for mutton, finds that by shipping east he can get II per head more for them than by selling locally. However,- he is stalled by the dipping regulations, and It means much to him. Also, the quarantine Interferes with the mar keting of stock sheep, for before they can be shipped Into another state they must be twice dipped. Although there is ample time for suoh sheep to recover from the effects of dipping, nevertheless the process Is expensive and has considerable effect upon the marketing of sheep. Will Imitate Idaho. In order to have the federal quar antine lifted It Is necessary to blot out scab from this state, and to do this Is now the Intention of the sheepmen; It was done In Idaho by means of a state law requiring that all sheep within the state be dipped four times a year, and It is probable that the next legis lature will be asked to pass a similar law for this state. At the session Saturday Dr. E. N. Hutchinson of Portland, stated that should' such be done, the co-operation of the federal authorities could be se cured and many extra deputies placed In the field to assist In the work. It Is said that the subject will be taken up in earnest at the meeting of the state sheepmen's convention, and In nM probability a bill asked of the coming legislature. , STOLE COLLAR OFF A DOG. Shecplicrdcr Peculiar to the Point of Dementia. Saturday evening a peculiar indl vldual, said to be a sheepherder, was arrested for having stolen the collar from a little dog belonging to Joe Owenhouse. About 6 o'clock In the evening Mr. Owenhouse discovered the man attempting to leave, the music store with the dog concealed under his coat. He was made to give up the dog, but a few minutes after wards it was noticed that the collar was missing. Naturally suspicion fell upon the sheepherder, and the police were summoned. A little later Offl cer Meeker found the man on the levee back of the Hotel Pendleton and took him In charge. Evidently the fellow was either drunk or some what demented, as he acted In a pe culiar manner all through the affair. GYM FUND SUBSCRIBERS. Forty-Five Subscribe $10 Each, and Thirteen f 5 Eicti.
