project, will have an extension of tlm
in which to make their annual proof
until such time as the water Is turned
onto their land by the government
canal. As no one is allowed to own
more than 160 acres under the pro
ject, those having filings for 320 acres
will at that tinv have to relinquish to
the government nil in excess of 160
acres, and then go ahead and make
their final proofs with the govern
ment water.
This ruling Is received here with
general satisfaction, and goes to show
that It is the intention of the depart
ment to aid and assist the settlers and
land holders under the project, In
every way possible. It has been un
derstood that in order to get govern
ment water and perfect a title to It,
that those owning the land would
have to live on It, or in the Immediate
neighborhood; the ruling of the secre
tary of the interior Is that "in the im
mediate neighborhood" will be up to
a distance of 20 miles.

KKEP THE KIDNEYS WELL.
Health Is Worth Saving, and Some
Pendleton People Know How to
Save It.
Many Pendleton people take their
lives In their hands by neglecting the
kidneys when they know these organs
need help. Sick kidneys are responsl
ble for a vast amount of suffering
and ill health, but there is no need to
suffer nor to remain In danger when
all diseases and aches and pains due
to weak kidneys can be quickly and
permanently cured by the use of
Doan's Kidney Pills. Here Is the
statement of a Pendleton citizen who
has reclaimed good health by the use
or this remedy: ,
Mrs. W. E. Oliver, of 1915 West
Webb street, Pendleton. Or., says:
"In the cases of several members of
our family Doan's Kidney Pills have
proven to be a tried and true rem
edy, and not a single one who used
them has found them wanting In time
of need. When my back became
lame and sore and the kidneys became
somewhat disordered so that It was
difficult to attend to the simplest of
household cares, I decided to try
Doan's Kidney Pills as I knew they
had helped others a great deal. I
was not disappointed and from the
good results obtained I can say that
Doan's Kidney Pills are the best rem
edy for backache and kidney trouble
procurable."

TEN SHIPS IX HARBOR.
Grain Fleet ut Portland LargcHt Ever
In Any Northwest Port.
The tremendous strides being made
by Portland, now the leading wheat
port of the United States, as a ship
ping and commercial center was strlk
Ingly shown during the past week by
the presence In the harbor 6t the larg
est fleet of ocean-going freighters
ever assembled In northwestern wa
ters, 10 large freighters being , at
tracted here to enrry away the pro
ducts of the territory Immediately con
tiguous to this city, says the Sunduy
Journal.
Three of these steamers sailed dur
ing the week, filled to tho hatches
with cargoes running Into a valuo of
hundreds of thousands of dollars, and
one will get away this morning.
Others of the big fleet will follow
as quickly as they can be made ready
for tho sea, and a continuous stream
of freight carriers will be seen pass
ing over the bar for several days
bound for foreign ports.
The Illustration Is one seldom pre
sented anywhere, because while some
of the great ports of the Atlantic
coast and Europe dispatch Immense
liners with clockwork regularity these
ports serve as distributing points for
vast and thickly populated sections,
oftentimes continents, whereas, so far,
Portland's exports are confined prin
cipally to products of Its Immediate vi
cinity. Tom Wntson a Democrat.
In a speech at Thompson, Ga., his
