Contractors on the western end of

securing laborers than those farther
east. '
Miss Lula R. Lorenz. trnvcllns cor
respondent for the East Oregonlan I
and the Oregon Daily Journal, con
tributes the following special article
to the Oregon Sunday Journal on
mule raising In eastern Oregon, The
article Is accompanied In the Journal
by a photograph of a grower of mules
residing near Pendleton, with two fine
mule colts, and Is as follows:
The accompanying photograph Is of
two mule colts and their roaster, taken
on a ranch a few miles north of Pen
dleton. The mule Industry In eastern
Oregon is one that has been neglected
compared with the way In which every
other branch of stock raising has
been exploited In this region, a fact
mournfully noted by every newcomer
from Missouri, especially, ln which
stnte Where, upon the rising and set
ting' of the sun. and upon every step
of that luminary's dally Journey, It Is
saluted with a cheerful hee-haw from
every 40-acre lot and every mile of
dusty road. There have always been
some mules In eastern Oregon, of
course, as there have always been
some politicians In heaven, but until
the present time they have been woe
fully scarce.
The ratio of efficiency of the horse
decreases when the heat has reached
a certain point and above, while that
of the mule can scarcely be "feased"
by any heat In which a man can
work. From 26 to 30 mules can now
be seen with tolerable frequency
drawing combined harvesters during
the past few years, and where fairly
Introduced to this trying duty they
are never discarded for horses.
Hence the past few years have
wrought considerable change In the
ambitions of the stockmen and the
number of mules Is steadily and rapid
ly Increasing. Now a mild craze for
mules has developed and co-existent
and necessary is the demand for high-
grade jacks, many of which have
been brought In from the,mlddle west
for the most part by private ranchers
In many cases, while at least one
wealthy importer of horses the A. C.
Ruby company of Pendleton hns di
verted a portion of Its Investment te
the purchase and Importation of jacks
and that company hns already sold
In eastern and central Oregon and
adjacent regions of Washington and
Idaho some two score of those ani
mals the present season alone. '
IniMrting Tlioronclilircjls.
Quick to recognize the possibilities
of the Industry and the development
of the. stockmen's and farmers' tastes
and judgment, the company Is now-
arranging for the Importation of
blooded Andaluslan Jacks from Spain.
And in this course the company Is
following a no less renowned exnmple
than that set by George Washington,
w'ho Imported and bred upon his
Slount Vernon estnte the first Jack
ever brought Into the territory of the
13 original colonies. Of courso, Span
ish jacks had long before that time
been bred In the Spanish colonics of
America. But Washington, first .in
war, peace and the respect and love
of his countrymen, was also the first I
Anglo-Saxon In America to appreciate
the mule at his full value.
As eastern Oregon Is par excellence
a land where the highest development
of the horse Is to be found, so It Is
expected by expert horse raisers to
equal or excel Spain Itself In the de
velopment of the mule, owing to the
similarity In climate between Oregon
In the lower altitudes and thnt of the
higher altitudes of Spain.

The Bole Statesman speaks of the
difficulties confronting the reporter
now gathering at Caldwell, and how
they will be met
One of the problems In connection
with the forthcoming murder trial Is
that of providing wire facilities for the
newspaper correspondent who will be
on hand. It seems likely a score or
more of outside papers will be repre
sented at Uio trlnl, and some of them
will want an Immense amount of mat
ter. The dispatches that will be offered
would swamp all the ordinary facili
ties, and the Western Union Is mak
ing an effort to enlarge its capacity
for handling the stuff.
Manager Hackett states a duplex
wire will be Installed at Cnldwol,
thus Increasing the capacity of that
ofice for handling dispatches, while
a quad will be put in here Ins tead of
the duplex we now hnve. With this
Increase In the facilities, li Is thought
the business can be handled, hut It
will be necessary to send much mat
ter here from Caldwell by messenger.
Over a quad wire four messages can
go at once and two over a duplex.
The wires are all the same, th-j
difference helng ln the electrical de
vices for working them.
In Caldwell an office will bn open
ed outside the ralhvny offlre and a
force of operators established there.
