W- 1 V lj ,.
Colonel E. J. Bell, manager of the
MlUbrook ranch in Laramie county,
Wyo., Is at work upon a new coloniza
tion scheme.
; Mr. Bell has thousands of acres,
plenty of water and immense herds
of sheep and cattle. He will divide
the land into tracts of 80 acres, four
such tracts cornering at the same
spot He will plant the tracts to
grain, provide ditches to carry the
water, stock the tracts with horses
and Implements and sell them direct
to men from the east.
He will go east In the midst of the
growing season, selecting some sec
tion of the middle west, where the
farms are mostly rented, and there
engage his prospective settlers. Gath
ering these at a certain point, Mr.
Bell proposes to bring them to Lara
mie In a special train, where they will
be Introduced to the merchants and
banks of the city, made acquainted
with local conditions and shown over
the educational facilities of the state
to the seat of the University of
Wyoming, including the Normal col
lege, the school of commerce, the
school of mines, the college of music,
and the state agricultural college and
United States experiment station.
They will be taken to posts set at
the common corners of the four 80
acre tracts, where they will find a
new wagon and harness, a good team
and necessary farm Implements for
each tract .!(..--.
The fields will be In the pink of
cultivation, with every foot covered
with Its waving field of grain. The
deed to the tract will be shown, car
rying absolute title to the land and
undisputed right to water enough to
bring It under Irrigation. The visit
ors will be asked to take the land as
It Is shown them, buying one or more
tracts as they see fit
Suitable and equitable terms of pay
ment will be agreed upon at that mo
ment, and the visitor will become the
resident, with a crop ready made,
farm ready stocked, with a deed
ready filled and ready to be acknowl
edged, .
Th. COLD CREAM
o MONTH
March Is the month when
complexions suffer unless
protected by the use of some
preparation that will pre
vent drying, chopping and
roughening of the skin. A
good cold cream will answer
the purpose better than any
thing else, providing you get
one that Is lightly made.
Our cold cream is right In
every particular. It's a dainty
pure white, delightfully per
fumed cream, that will feed
the tissues and protect and
beautify the complexion.

WILL MAKE ARTIFICIAL LAKE.
New Attractions Will Be Added to
Hldaway Springs nils Season.
If the present plans of W. H. Scott
of Hldaway Springs are carried out,
he will construct an artificial lake
about 20 acres In extent, at the springs
this season and supply it with two or
three gasoline launches to furnish ad
ditional amusement and recreation
for his patrons during the somlng
summer.
There is sufficient water from the
springs to make an excellent lake, by
constructing a dam to hold It, and Mr.
Scott feels that this would be a valu
able addition to the springs.
opoly of the bltullthlo paving sued the
Statesman for damages.
On investigation it was shown that
a section of bltullthlo paving was
pried up with a erowbar, but the
crowbar was a 80-foot railroad rail,
weighing 60 pounds to the yard, and
that 20 men sat upon the end of the
rail in prying up the section.
A hole was made In the paving large
enough to admit the end of the rail,
when blocks were placed under the
rail and 20 men pried up a section of
the paving. The Statesman failed to
say how long the crowbar was, or how
many men it required to handle It,
leaving the impression that an ordi
nary bar had been used and that the
bltullthlo was therefore not as strong
and durable as is clulined.

Habeas Corpus Asked.
Attorney R. J. Slater has left for
Seattle, where he will appear Monday
In the federal court in behalf of Co
lumbia George. George is now in
prison at McNeil's Island for murder,
and a writ of habeas corpus has been
asked for him on the ground that the
federal court which convicted him did
not have Jurisdiction.
Will Work John Day Placers.
E. E. Sibb and J. Gullllford of Ukl
ah, have gone to the North Fork of
the John Day river, to make prepara
tlons for the spring run on their plac
ers. The snow is yet four and five
feet deep on the North Fork of the
John Day, and the prospects for plen
ty of water for mining and stock are
very good.
Are the property owners of Main
and Court streets going to reverse
themselves and remonstrate against
street paving for which they petition
ed the council a short time ago? This
is a question that has been asked fre
quently all over the business portion
of the city since yesterday, and the
answer will be known in a few days.
Remonstrances for both Main and
Court streets have now been prepared,
and were circulated to Borne extent
yesterday afternoon by J. Ross Dick
son. Others besides him who seem
active In opposing the Improvement
are T. C. Taylor and Dr. F. W. Vin
cent. Aa to what success Mr. Dickson
will meet with in circulating his re
monstrance remains to be seen. But
in general the property owners of
modest means are favorable to paving
and will not remonstrate. Among
those of this class who have express
ed themselves are J. F. Robinson, V.
Stroble, C. C. Hendricks, G. A. Bob
bins, Joe Ell, B. F. Renn, East Ore
gonlan Publishing company and
others. George Darveau, or the Hotel
St. George, is strongly in favor of pav
ing, and John Schmidt Is said to be
the same.
However, some of the larger prop
erty owners, among wnom are oom
Messrs. Dickson and Taylor, are op
posed to the council's action. While
these men are few In number they
represent large frontages which count
on a remonstrance. nnoum .
Matlock and the O. R. A N. company
be persuaded to remonstrate, it would
greatly help In blocking the Improve
ment. Mr. Dickson is said to nave
already approached the railroad peo.
pie on the subject.
Actual Cost of Pnvlng.
In view of the opposition which
some Dronerty owners make to paving
a comparison of the cost of paving
with the monthly rents win ce inter
esting. It Is estimated that it will
cost $200 for a 25-foot front, and in
manv Instances this means but two
months' rent. For the better loca
tions on Main street $100 per month
is the price for a 26-foot room. The
five rooms on the west side of Main
street belonging to Jacob Betz bring
thin revenue, while the California
Wine & Liquor company pays $125 a
month for Its room. The lower floor
of the John Schmidt building, a 75
foot front, rents for $300 per month,
and consequently it would take less
than two months' rent of the entire
building to pay for paving. The Hen
dricks building is also a good paying
structure, and Mr. Hendricks states
that he could pay for his part of the
paving with but one month's rent.
Mr. Hendricks declined to sign the
remonstrance when it was presented
by Mr. Dickson.
The Peoples Warehouse building,
which belongs to the Dlcksons, is re
garded as one of the highest priced
locations in the city.
Councllmen Stand Finn.
According to members of the coun
ell they are going to stand firm In the
nnsitlnn thev have taken and the
streets will be paved unless the mat
ter be blocked by a sufficient re
monstrance. Should the owners or
two-thirds the property .remonstrate
the council could not proceed. .
People of Southern Part of the Conn'
ty Will Abolish Liquor IliiHtmw).
A local option vote will again be
taken in Uklah precinct at the coming
election and from reports from that
precinct It is likely to go "dry" this
year.
A vote was taken two years ugo In
that precinct and It went "wet" by
but one vote. Public sentiment hus
changed very much In the past two
years and It Is thought that there Is
no doubt about it carrying this time.
Alba will also vote, but It is thought
that it will go "wet." A number of
Pendleton saloon men and gamblers
have homesteads in that locality and
will vote there, thus changing the
actual sentiment of the precinct If
left to the people residing there.
Rnul the Advertisements.
The East Oregonlan urges Its
readers to study the advertise-
ments In the paper and become
familiar with the advertisers.
Each advertisement 1b a special
message to each reader. The pa-
per speaks to a thousand read-
ers while the individual bust-
ness man can speak to a very
small percentage of this num-
ber. For this reason the bust-
ness man uses the paper as a
means of speaking to his cus-
tomers. When he has anything
sneclnl to offer he advertises It
and In this way sends message
to each person Interested. Thus
the paper becomes the spokes-
man for the business man and
the benefactor of the reader by
bringing the buyer and the
seller together.

fattens his hogs on green alfalfa, says
the Pacific Homestead. His farm Is.
known as "river bottom" soli with
some upland. He has a 12-acre piece-
of alfalfa, four years old, and a 17
acre field, three years old, on the up
land. Mr. Achilles last year, from
May 1 to October 81, kept from 150
to 175 hogs on the 12-acre tract of
alfalfa. He bought the pigs when
they weighed 60 pounds each and sold
them after six months weighing from
180 to 200 pounds each. Only during
the lust 10 days were the hogs fed
grain.
Mr. Achilles, a few days ago, sold
10 hogs that had not been fattened on
alfalfa. These hogs he bought at 14
each, spent as much more on beets,
shorts and other feed, and sold the
animals at a trifle over 814 each. Mr.
Achilles states that they cost a great
deal more and brought less profit
than the alfulfa-fed hogs.
