Tl ey proceeded to Oelllo, where
they expect to meet Lieutenant Col

ani Inspect the pottage road and In
vestigate the Improvement made
necessary by damage to the wharf
hoat at Pig Eddy, as well as other
preparations which must be made be
fore the season's traffic begins.
They will consider the suggestions
msde r to abandoning the wharf
boat and the construction of a bulk
head, hut of this neither gentlemen
could sneak until the visit had been
made. The governor suggests that
the change may be of mportance to
both the portage road and the canal
' project, and will consult with Colonel
: Reessler as to the change, as the
1 trick would encroach on the canal
! right of way.
I Governor Chamberlain could ex
press no opinion as to the cost of the
' change. "You know, we have only
i f 10,000 appropriated," said he, "but
. of course it wculdn't take half of
that." It has been estimated that
the proposed Improvement could be
made at no greater expense than $2,
000. Roth the governor and the state
treasurer expressed their regret that
the bill providing for the extension
of the portage road failed to pass,
irlvlng as their opinion that the In
land empire and Portland as well
have lost much thereby.
"Such projects as the portage road
are never built with the Idea of pay
ing their expenses," said the gover
nor, "but for the benefit of the
shippers and, others who receive In
direct benefits. The locks are an in
stance of that kind." The Dalles

Miles S. Johnson of Lewlston, at
torney for the Lewlston & South
eastern F.lectrlc railway, who Is In
Poise, said to a reporter of the
Statesman, that it is published In
nnidstreef Review that the bunds
for building the road have been sold
In New York. . He was unable to any
more than that, quoting Pradstreet'i
as authority, but If the sale Is a fact
there Is every reason to believe that
the road will be built as soon ns pos
sible doubtless the coming season.
. The rondwaa originally projected
by Colonel Judson Snofford cf this
city and Wdlttr Hovey Hill, a civil
engineer of drnngeville, formerly In
charge of the Rig Ruffalo mine that
was the nucleus of Kuffulo Hump.
Quite a sum, amounting to several
thoMSiind dollars, was subscribed by
the people nlong the line, for Imme
diate use In running the preliminary
i survey. Later, a systematic cam
! palgn for stock subscription resulted
i Ir approximately half a million dol
l l.i.'s' worth cf stock being taken by
I the people along the line from Lew-
lslon to Ornngeville. These stock
i subscriptions were made due and
i payable In June of this year. If the
! road should be running by that time.
! It is not probable that the road can
j be constructed to fulfill these con-
dltloris, but most of the subscriber
: would be tickled to death to extend
I the time another yecr if only the
road would ocme.
S- veral miles- of grading have been
j done, some out of l ewlston and more
j from Nits Perec. The latter town
will not be on the main line, but a
i spur will be run out there, from
j Westlnhe, according to the present
J surveys, which have been perfected
I to the point where they can be said
! to be permanent.
I lower Is to be brought from the
! Salmon river, a distance of several
miles. A diverting dam Is to be
uiilt across the river at the head of
Horseshoe Ri-nd, where the river
swings mound a prcnt rocky prom
ontory, nnd after a flow of nearly
nlnemlles cr.rn"S back to within a
mile of the starting place. A tunnel
Is to be cut through this mile of
rock, which will be larse enough to
take practically all the river at low
water stage. There Is a fall of near
ly 100 feet In this mile of tunnel,
which with the immense volume of
water, will develop between 40,000
and 50,000 horsepower. This power
will be utilized for the railroad, ns
v'll as for lighting and other pur
poses all through tl)at section of the
countiy. The Salmon river Is a dif
ficult stream to harness under ordi
nary conditions, ns It has n great va
riation in some points more than
30 feet getween high and low water
b'lt the tunnel proposition makes
It a veiy simple riii-lter. ' .
Incidentally, the turning of th?
river through tlie Ms tunnel will
t ike two high-bowed emigrant wag
ons through its capacious portals at
once, will lay bare, or almost bare,
the Salmon river bed for nearly nine
miles between the twe ends of the
tunnel. The Salmon river hils hen
n blsj placer gold producer, and It Is
believed there may be millions In the
river tied nlong the territory In ques-
tlon. TheiSalmon liver gold Is very
pure, in most places, some of It run
ning above 119 to the ounce. To
shut off the water nnd allow this
tract to be thoroughly explored,
might make a new record for placer
gold production for that .section of
Idaho.
A very easy giade was found for
the electric road, from Lewlston up
the pralrio towards Grangevllle. The
electric was flist in the field, and
pre-empted the most advantageous
route, ahead of the Northern Pacific.
The Northern Faclflc line from Cul
desac to Ornngeville on which a great
nmcunt of work was done last year.
Is one of the heaviest pieces of rock
work on the entire Northern Pacific
system in getting out of the Culdesac
canyon, whieh is In fact, what its
name would indicate. The electrlo
rots an enster erade nnd traverses
for the most part a different country,
far enough . nwnv from the Northedn
Faclflc to leave a good business for
both.
The Lewlston & Southeastern, as
now" projected, will be 104 miles
long, including the Nez Perce branch.
It Is to be built of .standard gunge,
with the heaviest equipment, and
will be the equal to the best steam

Elk Are Starving.
Forest Ranger Silas Yarncll hns
returned from a trip over tho Wind
River division of the Yellowstone for
est reserve and reported that he dis
covered a bunch of 20 elk which are
snowed in on Jim creek, says a Pine-
dale, Wyo., correspondent. The snow .
is so deep they cannot get out and j
are slowly starving to death. They
have beaten down a path 100 yards1
across and all around this the snow
rises up many feet like fortifications.
Yarnell broke a path through Into the 1
enclosure, but the elk refused to leave. !
Yarnell will secure the aid of other '
rangers aryl either force the ,clk out
or take feed In to them. Much trou
ble Is exccted as the trip hns to be
made on snow shoes and it Is possible
nil of the bunch will perish.

PIANO TALKS
Visit a reliable house that carries a piano of established prestige.
Have the salesman present the merits of this Instrument. Then go
to stores where only very ordlnnry. grades are carried. The claims
for these pianos will, in most cases, be practlcnlly the same ns those
expressed for the fine piano. Such claims nre simply a challenge to
your common sense. Test the tone quality and the nction of the dif
ferent instruments; examine their workmanship, nnd you will require
no further evidence of the difference existing In pianos.
The fact Is there are poor pianos, good pianos, high-grade
pianos and artistic pianos. The responsible house will carry a com
plete line of reliable grades and show you plainly where they differ.
Then it Is simply for you to choose the one you best can afford to
buy. Our policy Is to serve all classes of patrons who want tho best
piano value for the money they have to spend. We have low-priced,
medium-priced and high-priced pianos. We can demonstrate that
every instrument we offer Is tne best that can be given for the money,
nnd we make no claims that ore' not Justified.
WE HAVE FIXED A PRICE FOR EACH GRADE OF PIANO AND
EVERY INSTRUMENT HAS A TAG MIUWINO ITS PRICE
-r-ITS ACWAL VALUE.

making an excellent record is shown
hv the following letter from Harry
Askln, manager for the company, in
Clilcngt. Mr. Askin writes:
Chicago, March 9, 1907.
The East Oregoniun,
Pendleton, Ore.
Dear Sir; The lenten season doe3
not roem to affect the show business
In Chicago and we hope It will not
on the rond. "The Umpire" will be
In your city on March 15 and we en
close as usual a bit of news In re
gard to It
As the show goes direct to Broad
way at the clofe of Its western tour,
this will probably be the only oppor
tunity to see "The Umpire" In your
city, as Its success In Chicago and on
the road assures It a long run In
New York.
Thanking you for past and future
fuvois, I am as ever,
Very truly yours,

Mrs. W. T. Burns, of Memphis,
Tenn., who Is national press corres
pondent of the W. R. C, writes: "I
caught a severe cold which it seemed
Impossible for me to get rid of. I be
came much run down, lost my ap
petite and flesh and felt nervous and
IrrlUble. Vlnol was recommended,
and certainly worked wonders for
me; it Increased my' appetite, and
cured my cough and nervousness. I
consider Vlnol a wonderful remedy."
A member, of The Pendleton Drug
Co. says: "Many people right here
In Pendleton are In lust her condi
tion all run-down, hardly able to
drag about, don't know what alls
them. This Is probably caused by a
cold which is hard to cure, overwork
or too close confinement to business,
and such people need Vinol."
Vlnol Is not a patent medicine, but
contains the medicinal curative ele
ments found In fresh cods' livers,
with all oil eliminated and tonic Iron
added.
We ask every run-down, nervJnis,
debilitated, aged or weak person In
Pendleton, and every perBon suffer
ing from stubborn colds, hnnglng-on
coughs, bronchitis or Incipient con
sumption to try Vlnol on our guaran
