Salt Lake Convention Finally Endors ed General Policy, But Recommend ed Changes Oregon nnd Vniatilla County Represented by Influential Delegations Dan P. Smyth Was on Committee on Resolutions and Was Elected to the Permanent Ex ecutive Committee. During the convention of the Na tional Woolgrowers' association, Just held at Salt Lake, some good work was done in behalf of this state by the members of the Oregon deelga tton. While there attending the con vention they placed before the chief forester and other officials present several propositions greatly desired by the Oregon men. That tiiey are In a fair way to have their requests granted Is understood by the local men. Last night the members of the Ore gon delegation arrived home on pas senger train No. S. Those In the del egation from this county were J. N. Burgess, president of the Oregon as sociation; Dan P. Smythe, secretary, of the same; Douglas Belts and Thom as Boylen. Others in the Oregon party were ex-Congressman M. A. Moody, H. C. Rooper of Antelope; A. L. Mcintosh, of Paulina; George Ayers, of Baker City; T. Turnbow. of Ontario; Charles and Harry Anderson, of Skull Springs: Mr. Stubblefield, of Wallowa, and others. Dr. McClure, head of the federal stock Inspection In the northwest, also accompanied the party and returned last night While at the convention the Oregon meen took a very active part In the proceedings and were influential In shaping the course of the meeting. Dan P. Smythe, of this city, was named as a member of the committee on resolutions and also on the execu tive committee, which has charge of the association affairs during the In terval between the annual sessions. At the opening of the convention strong opposition was developed from some quarters to the forest reserve policy of the government. Several of the delegations were bitter against the reserve Idea and in the committee on resolutions a hard fight was made to censure the administration. In be half of the Oregon delegation Mr. Smythe opposed this move' and throughout the meeting the Oregon men were strong backers of the for estry bureau. The resolution finally aioptcd endorsed the general policy of the government regarding reserves. out recommended some changer. In choosing a l-lace for the next convention a hard fight ensued be tween Salt Lake, Helena and Albu querque, N. M. Strong delegations represented each city, and for a time the contest was In doubt. Holena was placed In nomination by Dan P. Smythe. When the vote was finally taken all In the convention were al lowed to vote vlve voce pnd the decis ion was given to Salt Lake. At this the Montana men made a protest in sisting that only authorized delegates GRIPPE Will Get You it Yon Don't Watch Out.

FIVE INDIANS WERE CREMATED (Continued from page 1.) of the agoncy buildings at Irregular hours of the night. It was required that the Inspection be made irregu larly. At 8:30, retiring time. It was his duty to visit every plaoe. where a fire had burned during the day. While upon the stand Mr. Gardner said he had been over the agency grounds during Saturday evening, and that before retiring about 11 o'clock, he had looked out of his door and saw nothing out of the way. All Wore Indiana. It was discernible amid the ruins that one of the dead men wore cordu roy trousers and had a gold ring upon the third finger of' his left hand. By some it was feared possibly he was a white man and the police were ques tioned closely upon that point Ac cording to Chief Luke Mlnthorn, his orders were to arrest "Indians, white men or Frenchmen" If drunk or fighting upon the reservation. Two months ago a white man, found drunk, had been locked up. But since that time the only prisoners had been Indians. Who They Wem Henry Cook, or Henry Pond, was a young educated Indian and well known to those familiar with the reservation. He was a frequent vis itor in the Pendleton police court and was regarded as a reckless Indian, though of a Jovial nature. Abraham Lyman, was likewise a Umatilla tribesman and like his fellow prisoner was much addicted to the use of "fire water." Went-pa-ya, the Takima, had been here but a short time and about two weeks ago was married to Alice Pad awah, the well known Indian woman. At the Inquest yesterday Alice was called upon to describe her husband's, dress and identified him as the man with the corduroy trousers and the gold ring. . Um-ta-ki-llp, the Montana Indian, was likewise married to a Umatilla squaw. He was Wet Coyote's son-in-law, and was married In Montana about a year ago. He was an edu cated Indian and had been to Wash ington for the purpose of serving as interpreter for his chief. Reuben, or Wet-a -snoot, was the son-in-law of Small Hawk, the Uma tilla Indian. He was a Lapwal and an allottee of that reservation, as was also Um-ta-kl-llp. ( 1rte .Turv's Verdict After considerable deliberation the following verdict was agreed upon by the coroner's Jury: "That Um-ta-kl-llp, Wet-a-snoot, Went-pa-ya, Henry Cook and Abra ham Lyman were burned to death In the agency Jail In Umatilla county, Oregon. That they were locked In the said Jail by the Indian police under general Instructions, for drunkenness and fighting. That we believe the Jail caught fire from the inside and that it was impossible to rescue the Inmates owing to the system of cor ing for the prisoners locked in the Jail. "R. H. WILCOX. "A. T. PERKINS, "CHARLES J. FERGUSON, "E. D. KIRKPATRICK, "H. O. MOUSSU, "L. L. MANN, "RALPH FOLSOM, Coroner." During the inquest stenographic notes were taken by C. J.

E. llvengood More Thnn Plencd With Oregon. . F. E. LlvngooJ, manager and buy er of tie drv goods department of the Lee Toutsch Department store, re turned from the east Saturday even !ng, whore he has been for the past live weeks purchasing gcods for the spring trade.

The consider ation was f 3000. s SAY DEATH OF TRIBESMEN WAS DUE TO CARELESSNESS. No Guard Left at the Jull nnd the Prisoners Were Dead Before Any Effort Was Made to Rescue Pa thetic Letter to Indian Cominhedon- er Gives Sentiment of the Indiana on the Death of Their Tribesmen. In n most pathetlo letter to Indian Commissioner Francis E. Leupp, Umupine, the wel known Umatilla In dlan, today expressed the sentiment of his tribe upon the terrible death of five of their tribesmen In the agency pall Sunday morning. That the five Indians "who were burned to death were unjustly impris oned, and met their death through gross carelessness and mismanage ment is the belief of the Indians and Umaptne's letter expresses the senti ment of the tribe In crude, yet im pressive language. He said to the commissioner: "These Indians were not blind drunk. They Were going home and were ar rested while they were creating no disturbance. They were placed In Jail, the Jail locked, and all the offi cers of the agency went to bed, leav ing no guard at the Jail where these men were confined. "The agent did not know they were In Jail, according to his own words. When the people of the agency were awakened by the fire, the Indians were dying and no one came to un lock the door until they were dead. I am sad today, as are my people. I speak the truth to you. This Is suf ficient now. I will speak later on the subject" The Indians feel that unnecessarily rigorous rules are enforced on the reservation in regard to drunken In dians. It la said that the police have orders to arrest any one on whom they may smell whiskey and in this practice often Incarcerate Innocent Indians who must He In the agency jail. The Indians especially condemn the practice of leaving the Jail unguarded while prisoners are confined in it and are also of the opinion that If the gov ernment Is going to maintain a Jail at the agency that It should be forced to provide a fire-proof structure In which the lives of Innocent men would not be endangered. This Is the second fire to occur In this Jull In the past two years. Bowling Game Tomorrow Night.

You may ask why It Is that Mi-o-na stomach tablets are sold by Tallman & Co. under a guarantee to refund the ineny unless they cure, when no other treatment for stomach trouble Is sold In this manner. The answer Is simple and conclu sive. Other medicines for stomach troubles merely digests the food, while Ml-o-na strengthens the whole dlsestlve system so that It soon be comes able to care for all the food that Is eaten. If you do not use your arm or leg for a month the muscles become flab by an.' weak and you have to resort to artificial help. It Is the same way with the stomach muscles. If they are not used they become so weak that It Is neeessary to continue using a di gestive With the food you eat. On the other hand, when you use Ml-o-na, your Btomach soon grows so s'rong that you can give up the use of medicine. Ml-o-na corts SOc a box and does more real good than a dozen boxes of ordinary digestive tablets. The proof of this Is shown In the fact that a guarantee, absolute and unqualified, Is tflven by Tallman & Co. with every box of Ml-o-na.
