GIFT FOR RETIRING PRESIDENT
Savings Bank Force Present W. J.
Furnish With Punch Bowl.
As a token of the esteem In which
they hold the retiring president of
the Pendleton Savings bank, the em
ployes of that institution presented
W. J. Furnish with a beautiful cut
glass punch bowl on Christmas eve.
Practically all of the bank force has
been with the concern for many
years, while some were connected
with It all the time It was under the
management of Mr. Furnish. That
the former head of the business Is
personally popular with the men In
the bank Is shown by their holiday
remembrance.
Alleging that the Great Northern
and Northern Pacific railroads have
violated their charters by Inefficient
service, west coast associations of
lumber and shingle manufacturers
will ask that receivers be appointed
for these perfectly solvent properties.
This most Interesting development
following the inadequate transporta
tion facilities of 1906 Is announced In
this week's Issue of the Mississippi
Valley Lumberman, the leading organ
of the lumber trade In the west.
As yet the Minnesota lumbermen
organized In the Northern Pine Man
ufacturers' association, have taken no
steps toward active participation In
the campaign started by the Pacific
coast associations. The northwestern
lumbermen have been experiencing
the same difficulties In securing ade
quate or satisfactory car service,
however, and will watch developments
with keenest Interest.
The Pacific Coast Lumber Manu
facturers' association has long been
fighting for better service and has
resorted to every possible means to
compel the railroads to furnish serv
ice. Experts have been employed to re
cord the movement of both cars and
engines by the car and engine num
bers. Record has been kept of cars
tied up on sidings under the opera
tion of the ten-mile system. Records
have been kept of shops to show the
number of engines out of commission
from time to time and the number of
these engines.
An expert engineer has been In
charge of the collection of data to
show that Inefficient repairs were
made and time lost through their
failure when the expenditure of a
comparatively small amount of money
In real repair work would have kept
the engines In commission.
every energy Is being expended to en
courage. new settlement.
The questions raised by Mr. Davis
concerning the reserve and the pos
sibility of getting the boundaries
changed' to a line farther to the north
were laid before T. B. Neuhausen, In
spector of the Interior department.
Mr. Neuhausen sees no reason why
conditions cannot be changed If the
present status of the reserve bound
aries Is laid before the proper author
ities, requesting satisfactory action on
their part. "

OBJECT TO THE RESERVE.
Harney County Residents Would
Change Boundaries.
Harney county residents are In
quandary relative to the lines of the
Blue Mountains forest reserve, which
they wish removed to a more distant
point from Harney City, says the ure
sron Dally Journal. The southern
boundary of the reserve lleB only
mile and a half from the latter place
and It Is claimed the proximity of the
reserve Is detrimental to the Interest!
of the Btoekmen, who are thus re

In a letter of Inquiry to the Jour

the Harney board of trade, the fact
Is brought to light that not only are
the reserve lines doing Injury to the
cattle and sheepmen, but the close

Salem Correspondent Tells of Walla
Wnlla River Suits.
The correspondent of the Oregon
Dally Journal reviews the water cases
cf the Walla Walla and Tumalum
tlvers in this county as follows:
Will R. King, of Ontario, Is In the
city looking up evLdence In what la
probably the largest suit over water
lights ever brought In the United
States or any olhpr countty. There
may have been litigation In which as
large sums of money or as big areas
of land were Involved, but this suit
breaks tho record' for the number of
people and the number of properties
connected with It.
The suit Is an Injunction proceeding
brought by about SO old settlers on the
lower wnters of the Walla Walla river
in Umatilla county, against the resi
dents of trw upper waters of the same
stream asking that they be enjoined
from taking the water out of the river
and diverting It away before it reaches
the lower countty near the state line
on the north. The great common law
problem of riparian lights, as well as
all other legal points regarding water
rights, will be fought nut and the
courts will be asked to decide whether
water can be taken from a stream
above to develop a new country und
away from the stream to the detri
ment of an old and already developed
country near the mouth.
New vs. Old Settlers.
It Is cluimed that the country near
the mr.uth of the Walla Walla river
was developed long ago and that It.'
prosperity Is wholly due to Irrigation
with witer from the stream. Now it
Is alleged that new settlers at the
source of the stream are taking all the
water In the river, developing a new
country at the expense of the old
The court Is asked to enfoln the peo
ple up stream from taking water,
sklng that it be allowed to flow as
formerly.
Five hundred individuals, five cor- j
relations, the Incorporated town of
Milton with 1500 Inhabitants, and the

are about 2000 people Involved In the
suit, not counting the state of Oregon,
which Is made a party.

suit and It Is to examine these sur

A Wonderful Record.
At made up by Improved and exact

tion is a most efficient remedy for regu
lating all the womanly functions, correct
ing displacements, as prolapsus, antever

periods, toning up the nerves and bring
ing about a perfect state of health. It
cures the backache, periodical headaches,
the dragglng-down distress In the pelvic
region, the pain and tenderness over
lower abdominal region, dries up the
pelvic catarrhal drain, so disagreeable
and weakening, and overcomes every
form of weakness incident to the orgaua
distinctly feminine.
"Favorite Prescription" is the only
medicine for women, the makers of
which are not afraid to print their
formula on the bottle wrapper, thus
taking their patrons into their full con
fidence. It Is the only medicine for
women, every ingredloni of which has
the strongest possible endorsement of
the most eminent medical practitioners

Prescription" Is used. It is th only
put-up medicine for women, sold
through druggists, which does not con
tain a large percentage of alcohol, so
harmful In the long run, especially to
delicate women. It has more genuine
cures to IU credit than all othsr medi
cines for women combined, having
saved thousands of sufferers from the
orjeratina tab e and the surgeon's knlte.
It has restored delicate, weak women to
