The Town Has One of the Mo Effi

Northwest Some of Her Hose
ComiMUiics Made Superb Runs Dur
ing the Tournament on the Fourth,
in Spite of the Heat and the Fact
That There Had Been No Prelim
inary Practice- Company No. 7
Took First Prize,
That an Immediate decline In the
price of fire insurance In Pendleton
should occur Is the sentiment of all
who saw the splendid showing made
by the fire department on the Fourth
Although none of the companies had
the benefit of any practice at all, the
work done In the races on Court
street was speedy. It has been ascer
tained since the Fourth that the rec
ord run made by company Xo. 7,
which won first, was 59 seconds In
stead of the time previously published.
Xo. 4 was not far behind this time,
while Xo. 2 was third.
In view of the hot weather and the
lack of practice the time made by the
three winning companies is unusually
good and shows the general efficiency
of the volunteer fire department.
Fire Chief John Vaughan Is also enti
tled to credit.
Aside from the entertainment fur
nished by the races the hose teams
were valuable features of the parade.
For the best showing in the parade
Xo. S was awarded first prize, No. 4
second, and No. 7 third.
J
BAND CONCERTS PROBABLE.
Would Be Financed by Surplus From
Celebration Funds.
That the people of Pendleton will
have the benefit of evening concerts
by the Eagles' band during the next
two months Is now almost certain.
Since the proposition was brought up
yesterday morning It has met with uni
versal approval, and unless the con
certs are arranged for there will be
much disappointment among those
who will have to remain here during
the hot weather.
Last night a meeting of the Fourth
of July committee was held for the
purpose of paying off bills. However,
the business could not be finished up,
as all bills had not been presented.
Another meeting will be held Tuesday
evening and all claims not in by that
time will be considered as outlawed.
It cannot be told yet Just what sur
plus will remain after all accounts
are paid, but it is estimated at about
$200. Should this be the case such
money would furnish a good satrt for
a concert fund, and it may be used
for that purpose. Otherwise the
money would have to be refunded pro
rata among the subscribers, which
would Involve endless work.
C. C. Sharp, leader of the Eagles'
band, has been asked to ascertain
what the band will charge for hold
ing concerts, and he has agreed to be
present at the meeting next Tuesday
and Inform the committee of the
band's decision.
WRITES PERSONAL LETTER.
Roosevelt Fuvors Single Statehood for
New Mexico and Arizona.
Tucson, Arli., July 7. President
Roosevelt Is so anxious for Arizona to
become a state that he has written a
personal letter to his old friend, Mark
A. Rogers, urging the people to vote
to be admitted with New Mexico. The
president says he believes If the pres
ent opportunity Is not seized It may be
many years before the opportunity
conies again. President Roosevelt's
letter, which was received yesterday,
reads:
"The White House, Washington, D.
C. June 27. Mark A. Rogers, Secre
tary Arizona Statehood Association,
Tucson, Ariz.: My earnest hope Is
that the people of the Territory of
Arizona, In their wisdom, will decide
to enter the union as part of the great
state of Arizona. No man can fore
tell what will happen In the future.
But It Is my belief that If the people of
Arizona let this chance go by, they
will have to wait many years before
the chance again offers Itself, and
even then It probably will be only on
the present terms that Is on the con
dition of being joined with New Mex
ico. If the people of Arizona come In
now they will achieve what every self
respecting American ought to wish to
achieve that is, the right of self
government. If they refuse what Is
proffered on the 'only proper and per
missible terms, they condemn them
selves to an Indefinite continuance of
a condition of tutelage.
"I have a peculiar affection for the
people of the four territories, which,
under the act of congress I have Just
signed, now have the opportunity to
enter as two states Into our federal
union. These territories nre filled
with men and women of the stamp
for which I grew to feel so hearty a
regard and respect during the years
that I myself lived and worked on
the great plains and in the Rocky
mountains. It was from these four
territories that I raised the troops with
which I took part In the Cuban cam
paign. Assuredly under no circum
stances would I advise the people of
these territories to do anything that
I considered to be against either their
moral or their material well-being. I
feel that for them now to refuse to
come Into the union as states would
be at the best mere folly.
"Very wisely the people of Okla
homa and Indian territory, and, I be
lieve, the people of New Mexico also,
have abandoned an attitude which for
bade their thus assuming the great
privileges and responsibilities of full
American citizenship. I cannot express
too heartily my hope that the people
of Arizona, exercising their sober sec
ond thought, will come to look at the
matter In the same light.

Through Pendleton This Afternoon.
With 38 dashing Oregon girls under
his protecting care. Rlnaldo M. Hall,
advertising agent of the O. R. & N.
system, passed through Pendleton this
afternoon on the most strenuous mis
sion ever undertaken by this well
known Journalist.
He was the chaperon, Information
bureau, official spokesman, enter
tainer, guide and guardian of the Yel
lowstone Park excursion sent out by
the Portland Oregonlan end with his
bevy of 38 beautiful winners In the
contest for the park trip, passed east
ward at 2:30 this afternoon with a
rain of Pullman coaches en route to
Salt Lake City, from where the ex
cursion will return tQ the Yellowstone
Park. I
Mr. Hall was enjoying his new ex
perience. This is his first trip to
enstern Oregon under such conditions
and he says that Oregon affords him
new experience every day. He has
gathered farm and livestock statistics,
studied dry land alfalfa, scanned ped
igrees of fine hogs, cattle, horses and
sheep of the Inland empire, has In
spected fruit crops, counted apples on
Hood River trees, photographed Indi
an and farm scenes, climbed moun
tains, rowed on Oregon rivers, has
feasted and celebrated with all the
clubs In the northwest and had
thought that his experience was about
complete.
However, this excursion Is something
new and he will add another chapter
to hlB booklet, "Oregon, Washington
and Idaho," next year as a result of
this novel experience.
The train consisted of engine, bag
gage, dining car, buffet and three
Pullmans, It was in charge of Con
ductor Sherry and Engineer Shea from
Portland to this city. Conductor
Smith took the train from Pendleton
to Huntington.
There were about 100 Persons In the
excursion, a number of tourists from
Portland taking the trip, In addition
to the regular members of the Ore
gonlan excursion.
That Umatilla pounty may become
the rubber growing center of the Pa
cific coast. Is now a possibility.
Q. T. Douglas, of Durango, Col., an
agent for the rubber truBt of the
United States, passed down the O. R.
& N. this morning to Echo and Uma
tilla, to Investigate the adaptability of
the soil and climate in the west end
of Umatilla county to the rubber plant
which grows In New Mexico, Arizona,
southern Utah and southern Colora
do, In abundance.
The plant flourishes In sandy, hot
soli and lives for hundreds of years
without moisture or cultivation In the
snnd hills of old Mexico. The trust
Is beginning its cultivation In parts of
southern Colorado and Utah, and will
Investigate different parts of the Pa
cific coast with a view to starting
rubber plantations.
Hilly, sandy, arid land, which Is too
high and dry for other crops Is a fa
vorite location for a rubber plant
field and after riding over western
Umatilla county, Mr. Douglas will re
port to his company in Xew York,
and If everything Is favorable It Is pos
sible that arrangements will be made
to start an experimental crop in this
county. According to Mr. Douglas, It
requires about two years for the rub
ber plant to come to maturity and a
good crop, well set on the ground, will
yield from $100 to $200 per acre, an
nually. It Is customary to extract the Juice
from the plant and ship It In liquid
form to the factories where the plan
tation Is located at a distance from
the factory, but where the factory
and field are close together It Is cus
tomary to ship the plants as they are
harvested, to the factory, where they
are crushed.
The rubber liquid Is contained In
the stalks of the plants and as they
grow older the liquid becomes more
abundant although the foliage becomes
less dense as the plants grow old.
Little, If any cultivation Is neces
sary and the plants take deep root and
seldom die. It costs from $8 to $10
per acre to plant the land to rubber.
The favorite method Is to secure
young shoots from older fields and
transplant them. However, a good
stand may be secured from seed.

FULTON OPIOSES BRISTOL.
Oregon Senator Talks In KarcaHtie Vein
in Portland.
When asked the reasons why he op
posed Mr. Bristol's confirmation by
the senate. Senator Fulton said to the
Oregonlan yesterday:
"He was not confirmed because
did not want him confirmed. When
the attorney general called on me at
the end of the session I told him I did
not desire to make a recommendation
at that time, and would make no rec
ommendation until the so-called land
fraud trials in Oregon were concluded.
"As to the reasons why I did not
ask for Mr. Bristol's indorsement
can say nothing. The case is that
did not want him indorsed, and he
was not. I do not care to give . my
reasons."
A stinging arraignment of Secre
tary Hitchcock, of the interior depart
ment, was made by Senator Fulton
yesterday. He accused the head of
the Interior department of harboring
a grudge against Oregon that works
a detriment to the state.
"The secretary of the Interior Is In
his dotage," said Senator Fulton. "He
Is a childish old man, Irritable and of
Intense prejudices, and seems to think
