Dr. S. W. McClure, head of the

error In- the form of a story concern
ing the alleged changing of the name
of the Blue mountains by the forestry
bureau. According to the morning
paper's story Gifford Plnchot, chief

abolish the time honored name of the

But instead of tampering with the

result therefrom. No attempt is made

TO GET INDIAN VOTES.
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

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-

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.

already paid this year. 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
