INQUIRING ABOUT OREGON.
"I have J 1800 In cash; am able
bodied; have a wife and three child
ren; am willing to work; what can I
do In eastern Oregon toward estab
lishing a permanent home?"
This is the -tenor of the letters re
ceived by the East Oregonlan from
anxious homeseekers In the east, every
day.
What can a man do with $1800?
To a bonanza wheat king that sum Is
Insignificant It would' not pay for
harvesting half a crop; it would
"scarcely buy sacks for some of the
crops of the Inland empire. It is not
worth talking about
But let us see what It means to the
-man of small means. It means that
he can buy a tract of 10 acres with
half of It, build a small house, and a
team with the remainder, and the
first year, from his 10 acre tract he
can pay for his team and live well.
He can work for some farmer or
stockman every day when his labor U
: not required on his own land. He can
earn good wages the year through and
Improve his little tract slowly, mak
ing a living for the family from the
poultry and dairy cows kept on the
ranch.
He need, not pay all of the cost
Trice of his land In cash. He can
buy Irrigated land for half down and
the remainder on easy payments so
therp are thousands of opportunities
In Umatilla county for men with less
than $1000 In cash.
All through the PHot Rock coun
try and northern and western Uma
tilla, are tracts that can be bought
a: reasonable prices. These tracts
will produce potatoes, fruits, alfalfa
or other profitable crops. One man
can handle a small tract easily and
educate his children and live Inde
pendently. Here Is a land owner, a producer,
n Independent, thrifty homeowner
and citizen. In the east he is a ten
ant upon a non-productive measly lit
tle farm, working day and night for
somebody else, having no Income
aside from a bare living and having
no prospect aside from that of being
a perpetual tenant.
Umatilla county offers emancipa
tion to the eastern tenant. That Is
sufficient Inducement to bring them
west.
tion which Is deserving of more than
passing notice. It Is this: While the
people are heartily In favor of Roos
evelt and are willing to follow Roos
evelt Into Hades, as It were, yet these
same people absolutely refuse to ac
cept Taft, who is Roosevelt's personal
choice. The people are for Roosevelt,
personally, but they will not let him
choose.
Such a condition is unparalleled In
the history of politics. Usually a man
who has Roosevelt's following and
grasp upon the public can dictate mea
or politics. But Roosevelt's efforts
to foist Taft upon the voters, has fail
ed. He cannot, with his magnetic
and powerful personality, induce the
people to accept Taft. Roosevelt they
will accept at any time, under any
circumstances, but his choice, never.
It becomes more and more appar
ent every day that the next president
will be either Roosevelt or Bryan.
ELECTRIC LINE POSSIBLE.
ROOSEVELT, OR BRYAN.
Every observant man who returns
to the Pacific coast from an eastern
' trip says that the next president will
be either Roosevelt or Bryan. This
sentiment Is so general and so em
phatic that it has come to be a part
- f the ruling sentiment of the presi
dential situation.
Taft Is not looked upon as a win-
- aer. He Is not in favor with the rank
. and file of the people. Although
Roosevelt has indorsed him, even
Roosevelt cannot bring the people to
ivor Taft
There Is an anomaly In the titUA-
It Is possible for retired farmers
and capitalists of Pendleton to launch
an electric line project and have it
in operation between Pendleton and
Umatilla Inside of a year.
By subscribing $100,000 to construct
and equip the first 10 miles of the
road, the remainder of the cost price
could be readily secured by bonding
the system, right of way and equip
ment and it would pay for Itself
without further outlay on part of lo
cal capitalists.
Twenty men could be found in this
city and vicinity who would be willing
to subscribe for $5000 worth of stock,
each, and within a few weeks the line
should be started.
It Is perfectly feasible and practi
cable. Systems of far greater Import
ance than this would be, have been
started on less capital. At Caldwell
local capitalists started a line between
that city and Boise on less capital
than this and the line was swamped
with business and the subscribers were
requested to put up but one-third of
the cash subscribed, so great was the
volume of business secured for the
line.
At first it was thought a car serv
Ice every four hours would be suffl
dent. That was found to be inade
quate to meet the enormous travel
ana a service every two hours was
Installed.
However, the country furnished
such a volume of business that an
hourly service, was started and the
cars are loaded to the limit every
trip.
Such would be the case between
Pendleton, Hermlston and Umatilla
within a short time after starting the
car line. People all along the route
would patronize It regularly. Every
foot of land would be Increased In
value from 25 to 40 per cent and the
rade of the entire west end would be
perpetually tied to Pendleton.
All that Is lacking to start this line
I;, somebody to take the lead. The
public spirited capitalists and retired
farmers of this city, who have ample
capital, would certainly grasp this op
portunlty to Install one of the best
paying enterprises In the county.
Soon the west end of the county
will be swarming with settlers and the
business originating west of Pendle
ton would require a double track in
a few years. The line would pay for
itself easily. All that Is necessary is
a sum to start the line and build per
haps 10 miles to form a basis for a
bond Issue with which to complete the
remainder.
republican should vote for Oovernor
Chamberlain or any other democrat
this year. The republicans are united,
harmonious, have good tickets In tho
field and have principles at stake.
So why should th0 governor's ap
peal win votes for himself or any
other democrat? Why should re
publicans divide up their strength
when they are agreed upon fundamen
tal principles upon which the party
stands? Why should they pull apart,
disintegrate, surrender their prlncl
pies-or weaken? They have clean,
capable candidates. Thoy have party
Ideals to cherish, party principles to
protect.
So why should the governor's ap
pial have any effect?
RECIPE FOR ROSY CHEEKS.
A lady, prominent in social circles,
Just returned from a sojourn In Eu
rope, brings back with her a valuable
skin food recipe, which, she says is
In general use among the society wo
men of France; who have an Inter
national reputation for their exquisite
complexions, says the Portland Tele
gram. The recipe Is as follows:
Two ounces of rose water; one
ounce of spirits of cologne; lour
ounces sartoin (crystallzed).
Put the sartoin In a pint of hot wa
te,r (not boiling), soft water prefer
able. When'lt Is dissolved and cooled,
strain through a fine cloth, add the
Rose Water and Spirits of Cologne.
This preparation to be applied twice
a day or oftener, and If adhered to
persistently, Is said to produce wond
ers even on the worst complexion or
roughest skin. It Is an Inexpensive
mixture, and the Ingredients can be
gotten from any well-stocked drug
store, the above formula making
enough to last quite a while, and
sufficient for a very thorough trial
THERE'S MORE MONEY NOW.
The people of the United States are
this year richer by $125,481,000 than
they were last year, or $1.44 In cash
each, according to our estimated pop
ulation. The growth of an eighth of a bil
lion dollars of circulating coin In one
year brings the per capita circulation
to $35.35.
The United States now ranks second
among the nations In the matter of
per capita circulation. France being
in the lead with $37.41. The most
remarkable showing is that this coun
try's per capita circulation was only
$31.41 four years ago.
Small wonder that the United States
is considered one of the richest na
tions in the world when our per cap
ita circulation increases at a percen
tage greater than the Increase of our
population.
THE GOVERNOR'S APPEAL.
Governor Chamberlain aa a sena
torial candidate sees no reason why
republicans should not vote In large
numbers for him, a democrat. There
Is every reason why they should not.
They have a clean, honest, fearless
candidate of their own, standing for
all tho advanced principle advocated
by Governor Chamberlain, and in ad
dition many more substantial princi
ples for which Oovernor Chamberlain
doea not stand.
There is no reason why a solitary
Flow of tlie "American Nile."
A comparison of the flow of the
Nile and the Colorado river of the
west, which has sometimes been
termed the American Nile, Is given In
water supply paper 211, just pub
lished by the geological survey. The
maximum flow of the Colorado is
about 110.000 second-feet; that of the
Nile Is about 353,4)00 second-feet;
while the minimum flow of the Colo
rado Is about 2500 second-feet and
that of the Nile about 14,500 second-feet.
Like the Nile the Colorado is sub
ject to an annual rise that comes at
the time when it is most needed for
Irrigation, but as the stream is far
below the level of most of the irrl
gable lands, its waters are available
for use on a comparatively small area,
though two pumping plants at Tuma
and several others on the river above
that place lift water for Irrigation.
