According to the morning paper's story Gifford Plnchot, chief forester, has taken upon himself to abolish the time honored name of the range that runs diagonally through eastern Oregon. But instead of tampering with the name of the Blue mountains the for estry bureau has merely changed the result therefrom. No attempt is made to change the name of the mountain range.

United States DMriot Attorney Elmer E. Todd Gives an Opinion. It Is now up to the poltlclans to figure on some method of catching the "red men's vote," says the Walla Walla Statesman. The colored, the Italian vote, the Swede vote, the Rus sian vote, the labor vote, the saloon vote and the church vote have all been considered from time to time when platforms and candidates were being made, and now at last the abo rigine Is to enter Into the calculations of the shrewd ones. It Is conceded that the Indian who accepts his allotment and thereby sev ers his tribal relation, becomes en dowed with full citizenship, and If he has the necessary qualifications re carding residence, etc., he Is entitled to vote. United States District Attorney El- mer E. Todd recently gave an opin ion on this matter In which he said: While the state may have the right to limit the suffrage to persons who pay taxes, it cannot take away from a certain race, who are cltzens of the United States, their right to vote be cause they do not pay taxes, unless It Includes, all non-taxpayers. The state can no more say that Indians, who do not pay taxes cannot vote than it could say that negroes who do not pay taxes could not vote. I am of the opinion therefore, that Indians In this state, who have been born within the territorial limits of the United States, and have received allotments of lands from the United States government, are entitled to vote at all elections In the state of Wash ington, provided they can read and speak the English language and have residence in the state, county and precinct the requisite time.

THAW GOES nACK DESPITE IDS PnOTESTS, Harry Says He Was Abused and Per secuted at Mattewan Doctor 8ay9 He Harbors Delusions. Albany, X. Y., May 30. Despite protests of mistreatment, Thaw must return to Mattewan, according to Dr. Ferris, chairman of the state lunacy commission. "Thaw Is undoubtedly an Incurable paranoiac and Is liable to have an outbreak at any time," Ferris said. "Mattewan Is the only place In the state where the criminal Insane can be properly cared for. "I have carefully observed Thaw, so have the Mattewan doctors, and our opinion Is not guesswork. I am positive the case is Incurable. "It would be a great error to allow even partial freedom." Thaw alleges that Baker, the Mat tewan superintendent, "has it in for him." He says he was persecuted there by officials and attendants. Ferris says he has Investigated the charge and believes they are of delu sions which Thaw continually harbors. Thaw's attorneys are prepared to make a hard fight to keep their client out of Mattewan.

WYOMING PROJECT. Engineer In Oiarge Says Path Finder Is Nearly Ready. Mr. E. H. Baldwin, chief engineer for the reclamation service, who Is In charge of the construction work of the Pathfinder dam and reservoir, about 45 miles southwest of Casper, was In this city the latter part of this week, says the Casper Tribune. He was acompanled by Mr. S. H. Fitch of Washington who had been to the Pathfinder damslte Inspecting the work. Mr, Fitch Is chief auditor and executive officer of the reclamation service, and visits the Pathfinder pro ject annually. Mr. Baldwin says the work on the dam Is getting along nicely, and the dam will be completed by the first of the corning year. The contract calls for Its completion by the middle of February. The dam is now built to a height of 100 feet, of solid masonry and when completed will be 210 feet high, and will cost nearly 14.000,000. The cost of the entire project, Including ditches and reservoirs, will cost about 19.000,000 and will reclaim more than 350,000 acres of land. " A great many people from the east as well as the western states, will vis It this project this summer, and two large automobiles will run between Casper and the dam If the roads can be gotten In good condition. FOUR MUTES MARRY. "Silent" Weddings Solomnlwxl by Spokane Pastor. Two couples who secured marriage licenses at the court house yesterday afternoon were shortly thereafter married quietly, In more ways than one, says the Spokesman-Review That Is to say, they were united in regular orthodox fashion, but so far as the contracting parties were con cerned deep silence brooded over 'the ceremonies. In each .case the ' men and women chiefly In .Interest were deaf mutes, and deaf mutes acted as Interpreters. To make one marriage all the more remarkable it amounted simply to a ratification of a wedding which took place more than a quarter of a cen tury ago. John M. Smith, aged 65 years, and Elmlra Smith, aged 61,-who had not seen each other for 27 years until a story In. the Spokesman-Revlef united them last Saturday, decided that a remarlage ' would make them feei more like husband and wife. They were particularly inclined to this way of thinking when a deaf mute friend reminded them that In the eyes of the law Mr. Smith became legally dead 10 years atfer his wife lost track of him when he came west, and that remarriage was the best way of bringing him to life. YAKIMA WOOL PRICES. Oregon Sales Fix Prices of the Ccn- trnl Waslungton Clip. Wool sales In Oregon this week tH which most of the clip changed hands at or near 12 cents, according to H. Stanley Coffin, go a long way towards establishing a price for the clip here, says the Yakima Republic. As a general thing the clip In this part of the country sells at about 2 cents a pound below that of the Uma tilla country so that 10 cents or there abouts may be expected for wool held In this valley. This Is a slight Increase n the price a Elixir0foennQ acts gentlyet prompt ly on the bowels, cleanses he system ejjectually, assists one in overcoming Habitual constipation permanently.

Mr. Coffin thinks that the clip of the Yakima and Kittitas valleys will make a total of about 1,200,000 pounds, or possi bly something more. While he Is not willing to make a forecast on the conditions he points out that the pres ent price Is the lowest In years and that It Is natural to expect a reaction toward the normal. One of the questions Involved Is whether the sales made are sufficient to carry the mills along and give them all the wool they will need. The price, while not as high as the growers would like to see It, Is such as can be endured, especially after n number of years of pretty good figures. The Oregon sale establish a price at least 85 per cent lower than last year. There are no sealed bid sales In this part of the country and the Yakima and Kittitas clips sold will be sold di rect to buyers. Mr. Coffin thinks, however, taking the wool producing districts as a whole, that there will be a large quantity of wool stored, as aj revival of conditions will be antlcl pated by a majority of those Interest ed.
