Laws Appointment Conies as a
Surprise.
Otto F. Turner, the well known
sportsman of this city, has been ap
pointed deputy game and fish warden
for the eastern Oregon district, his
commission having arrived from Sa
lem this morning.
Since the resignation of Joe Nolf as
deputy warden for eastern Oregon,
some months ago, the office has been
vacant and flagrant violations of the!
deer law and fish laws have been re
ported from eastern Oregon counties
repeatedly and Mr. Turner will at once
take up the work of strictly enforcing
all laws and to this end will visit the
different eastern Oregon counties at
once.
The appointment came as a sur
prise to Mr. Turner, who was one of
a number of Pendleton sportsmen
who had been favorably mentioned
for the place and the appointment al
so comes as a compliment to Pen
dleton, since Baker City, La Grande,
Union, North Powder and Summer
vllle were all in the field with candl
dateo for the place.
Within the past year Game Warden
J. W. Baker has secured more con
victions for violations of the game
laws than have ever been secured In
the state In the same length of time,
and his instructions to all deputies is
to fearlessly enforce all laws, regard'
less of who is Involved in the prose
cutlon and a strong letter along this
line accompanies Mr. Turner's ap
pointment
In several places in eastern Oregon
large mill and irrigation companies
have persistently violated the fish
laws, regulating the construction and
maintenance of dams and ladders and
In thic way many streams which were
formerly first-class trout streams,
have been robbed of their fish.
Mr. Turner will look Into these
cases and will endeavor to secure a
Just recognition of the law, by peace
able means, and If these companies
persist in the violation of the law,
they will then be prosecuted.
Mr. Turner Is an enthusiastic
sportsman and believes in protecting
game to the fullest extent and he will
I give this office his closest attention,
I Any person knowing of violations of
I any of the fish or game laws is ur

By the terms of an agreement which
has been entered Into between the
Pendleton water commission and the
Northwestern Gas & Electric compa
ny, the city pumping plant Is hence
forth to be operated by electricity.
The contract proposed is for 10 years,
and for pumping the water the elec
tric company will be paid J4000 the
first year and $3500 annually for
each succeeding year.
Under the terms of the agreement
the company agrees to Install a 75.
horse power motor and a pump which
shall be able to pump 1000 gallons of
water a minute. The same shall be
ready for use by June 1, 1906. When
the plant is Installed and Is working
In accordance with the contract the
sum of $2000 Is to be paid the com'
pany, and at the end of the year the
remaining $2000 for the first year's
work will be paid.
It Is specified In the contract that
the city shall supply all the water to
be pumped, and that the company will
not be liable for failure to pump the
required amount should the supply
fall short. Also it Is specified that
the maximum amount to be pumped
in 24 hours time shall not exceed 1,
200,000 gallons. The company Is to
maintain the plant, but is excused
from liability arising from unavolda
ble accidents, or from accidents to the
power line. In any event.
Should the commission at any time
desire more than 1,200,000 gallons of
water pumped In 24 hours the com
pany shall receive extra pay for the
additional amount at the same rate
as for water under 1,200,000 gallons
per day.
City Still Operates Plant.
The water commission must still
employ Its own men to care for and
operate the pumping station, though
the company guarantees to keep the
plant in repair and retains the owner
ship of the motor and pump. A bond
of $5000 Is required from the compa
ny to Insure Its faithful observance of
the contract.
Final Action Tomorrow. '
Yesterday afternoon preliminary
agreement was drawn up and signed
by Messrs. Jones and Carter of the
water commission and Manager Vln
cent, of the electric company. It Is
understood that the water commis
sion will meet tomorrow to ratify the
action and if such Is done a formal
contract will be entered Into.
Offer Refused Last Summer.
During last summer the proposition
of having the pumping plant run by
electricity was presented by the North
western Gas & Electric company.
However at that time the company
desired the commission to furnish the
motor and pump and keep the same
In repair. Consequently the offer was
turned down at the Instance of
Messrs. Jones and Clopton of the com
mission. Aa Mr. Clopton Is now ab
sent In Arizona the business of the
commission Is being attended to by
the other members, who are W. H
Jones, W. J. Furnish, C. H. Carter and
J. R. Dickson.
Electricity Seemingly Cheaper.
in the change from steam to elec
tricity It Is probable that the expense
of operation will be lessened about
1500 per year. It Is InoUftnt the cost
of labor for ttperittOn Will be lessened
somewhat though It will still be nec
essary for one man to be employed
the entire year and two during the
summer season. Should the same men
be retained the Saving would be prin
cipally In the difference between the
$3500 annual churge for electricity
and whnt it costs a year for fuel to
run the plant by steam. For the past
year 7S1 cords of wood were used,
which at the price of Ju per cord,
amounts to 13905. However, the aver
age cost of fuel per year for the past
five years has been but $2859, and
could this be maintained it would be
chenper to run by steam than elec-
trlclty. During the past year less wood
wa used than previously, but owing
to the hlgner price tne cost wai
greater.
Miwt Rrtnln Present Machinery.
It will be necessary for the com
mission to retain its present pumping
machinery so as to have facilities for
securing water in cases of accident!
that might occur to the electric line
for which no liability is assumed b
the company.
It Is specified that In case the water
commission should at any time Install
a gravity water system the contract
with the Northwestern Gns & Electric
company may be cancelled without
prejudice.
Commissioner Horace Walker Returns
From Trip Through the County.
Commissioner Horace Walker, who
has Just returned from an extended
trip through the north part of the
county, especially in the Helix dis
trict, says that in all his experience
In Umatilla county he has never seen
such excellent wheat prospects as now.
The stand of wheat is good, little re-
seedlng will have to be done and the
grain is strong, healthy and well advanced.
It seems Impossible that anything
could interfere now to prevent an lm
mense crop all over the county this
season.
He also says that less damage has
been done to county roads during the
past winter than In any previous win
ter, partly because the rains have not
been violent and partly because the
repairs made upon roads during the
past year have been of a more perma
nent nature. Few grades or bridges
have been washed away or damaged
during the winter and the amount of
roack work necessary this spring will
be reduced to a minimum.
A person who has a savings account Is In a measure a public
benefactor, because In his modest way, he does his share to Increase ,
the amount of money per capita In active circulation. The person .
who does not keep a savings account, but hides his money In our-of- ;
the-way places, withdraws that money from circulation and thereby ,
retards the full grown and prosperity of the country, and also robs
himself of a legitimate Income.

FROM NEW MEXICO.
Cattle Industry Is llelng Rapidly Con
centrated Into Few Hands.
"The big fish are eating up the lit
tle fish on the cattle ranges of the
southwest," said Leo E. Weaver of
Clayton, New Mexico, who arrived in
the city today expecting to remain
permanently in Umatilla county.
Mr.' Weaver has worked on the
ranges in New Mexico for a number of
years, and is thoroughly Informed on
that country and in his opinion the
wheat raising boom which is now agi
tating parts of northern Texas and
New Mexico, and which is attracting
numbers of capitalists from different
parts of the country, will result In lit
tle permanent settlement. The buf
falo grass districts are not adapted
others. It Is necessary to prepare the
stomach for the work of taking up from
the food what Is necessary to make good,
rich, red blood. We must go to Nature
for the remedy. There were certain
roots known to tho Indians of this
country before the advent of the whites
which later came to the knowledge of
the settlers and which are now growing
rapidly in professional favor for the cure
of obstinate stomach and liver troubles.
These are found to be safe and yet cer
tain In their cleansing and Invigorating
effect upon the stomach, liver and blood.
These are: Golden Seal root. Queen's
root, Stone root, Bloodroot, Mandrake
root. Then there li ltlack Chcrrylmrk.
The medicinal principles residing In these
native roots when extracted with glyc
erine as a solvent make the most reliable
and efficient stomach tonic and liver In
vigorator, when combined In Just the
right proportions, as In Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. Where there
Is bankrupt vitality such as nervous
exhaustion, had nutrition and thin
blood, the body acquires vigor and the
nerves, blood and all the tissues feel the
favorable effect of this sovereign remedy.
Although some physicians have been
aware of the high medicinal value of the
above mentioned plants, yet few have
used pure glycerine as a solvent and
usually the doctors' prescriptions called
for the Ingredients in varying amounts,
with alcohiil.
The 'Golden Medical Discovery " ll a
scientific preparation compounded of tha
glyceric extracts of the above mentioned
vegetable Ingredients and contains no
