SPOKANE PARTY TO
CROSS THE COXTIXEXT
Three Men to Make 2800 Mile Trip
From Spokane Across the Conti
nent win Take It Leisurely in a
-26-Horse Poer Auto.
From Prosser to New York and
Philadelphia, Is a long cry. but a
Spokane boy is to make the trip in
an automobile and from the plans
of the party he will have the time
of his life and one of the most novel
and interesting vacations imaginable,
Bays the Spokane Chronicle.
Stanley Rogers is the lucky fellow
and will drive the big Dragon car un.
der the direction of A. R. McLane of
Prosser, who will make the trip
across the continent for the Pacific
Monthly. Mr. McLane Is now in the
city, having arrived Wednesday, and is
having his car completely overhauled
before taking the next jump, which
will land him In the heart of the
Rocky mountains.
In the party will be Robers as dri
ver. McLane, a Prosser Jeweler; R. P.
Tullis. a Prosser druggist, and A. J.
'Tullis, his brother. The plan is not
to attempt to make time, but to see
the country and have an outing which
wll long be remembered. The party
carries a complete camping outfit and
ts prepared to stop at any pofnt on the
road which strikes its fancy. Fishing
tackle, guns and camp utensils are
loaded Into the car, which looks like
anything but the old fashioned prair
ie schooner which previously made
the cros'-continent trips.,
""fTVe are outfor a good time and
'nave the brightest outlook ahead of
;i E1,1,1 ill Gill
vus." said Mr. McLane in speaking of
thf ir!p. '"U'e have made arrange
.mtTAs whereby we will gather data,
photographs, and Incidentally toiled
subscriptions for the Pacific Monthly
en route. Anything which may be ot
interest to the magazine wil be col
lected and we will go out of our way
to select material.
"There is no hurry and we Intend
'to pay an extended visit to Yellow-
stone ' Park and other points of in
terest along the route. In general we
will follow the Northern Pacific line
east and will take the road followed
- In 1908 by Gehr and Canfleld, who
made the cross-continent run.
"We expect to make our expenses
out of our magazine work and will
be sitlsfled if this feature pays the
expenses as we will have a great
time. If the roads get too bad to
-travel we will turn in and camp until
they improve. No hurry, no worry,
will annoy us. It is a go-as-you-please
race with picnic trimmings all
. along the line."
The party will leave Spokane Mon
day for the east and will keep the ob
jective Joint New York, always in
view. Headed steadily east the car
will pass over the mountainous coun-
-try onto the great plains of the mid
dle west, where the finest possible
roads will be found.
The Dragon car they are driving is
a five-passenger touring car of 20
horsepower. M. McLane and Mr.
" Tullis ae Joint owners and have driv
en it for the past eight months., They
are loud in their praises of their car,
which they are certain will take them
over the road in fine style.
BORAH'S BIGGER BAND WAGON.
Idalw's Junior Senator Seek to In
crease Prestige In Boise.
"'Senator Borah's band wagon" la
the appellation applied to the pro
poned change In the Boise postofflce,
that of establishing three branch of
fices In the capital city as recom
mended by the Junior lieutenant from
Idaho, says the Boise Capital News.

a friend of the Junior senator, thus
aptly termed the recommendation
made by Senator Borah for three
branch offices of the Boise postof
fice, Pressed for an' explanation he con
tinued: "That is a good scheme, tot
with the creating of three branches
of the Boise office, the appointment
of 23 assistants in the office will be
necesitated and in this way the band
wagon will be enlarged upon. Boise
haa not yet reached that point where
three branch offices are needed. The
free dllvery will be maintained and
money orders and mall will be han
dled at the branch offices.
"Appointments to the branch office
will be made upon recommendation of
the senator and greater prestige thus
gained for the office holders will be
dependent upon the senator for rap
polntment and candidates for the of
fice will likewise require the support
of the senator."
The movement for three branch
offices was started last February by
Postmaster Fenton, who It Is rumor
ed will soon be removed and a suc
cessor appointed. The matter was
taken up by Senator Borah and rec
ommendation made for the establish
ment of the branch offices.
The location of the proposed branch
offices as discussed, are for an office
at or near the intersection of Main
and Slxtenth streets, probably the
corner of Thirteenth and Eastman
streets; and on east Warm Springs
avenue. The carriers, under the plan
proposed, will make their headquar
ters In the branch office in which
their territory is located.
ROSES FOR ALASKAN FAIR.
Portland Will Furnish Blooms for 1909
Exposition.
Roses as they are grown In Port
land, roues of various kjnds and hues,
roses shipped from the Rose City of
the Pacific coast every few days for
the Interior decorations, are to be one
nf the features of the Oregon building
at the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific exposi
tion at Seattle next year, says the Ore
gon Dally Journal.
W. T. Wrighj of Union, one of the
--mmitteemen having the exhibits In
charge, is at the Cornelius, having
Just returned from Seattle. The rose
display has just been decided upon by
the commissioners and Is To be made
a special and distinct feature of the
show which Oregon will put on dis
play for the pleasure of the world.
The yard surrounding the Oregon
building, which lies In one of the most
commanding positions on the grounds,
Is to be planted with rosebushes, all
from Portland, and they will be plenti
ful enough to make the place look like
a veritable bank of roses, always In
full bloom. This Is to be arranged by
planting certain roses according to
the season, and In order that they will
be In blossom continually during the
entire summer.
On the Interior of the building Mr.
Wright says, preparations are to be
made for the exhibit of cut flowers.
Every Inch of available space not used
for other purposes Is to be converted
for the display of cut flowers which
are to be sent from Portland dally.
With the yard full of growing roses
and the building decorated with the
cut varieties, the' commissioners be
lieve that, the sight will be one of the
prettiest and most attractive on the
grounds.
Mr. Wright says that the Oregon
building as well as all of the other
buildings are rapidly being construct
ed, and that the exposition will be in
readiness to open on time next
spring.

A truly fabulous find of placer gold
has been unearthed at the base of
the mountains in the forest reserve;
in Idaho county, Idaho, directly east
of Wallowa county, Ore., and but a1
short distance from this state's line.:
Ito secure this treasure a company i
1907, and so rich was the tract that
tho matter was kept secret until all
legal Interests had been attended to,
which was carefully done by the two
attorneys in the company. When all
was ready for the launchng of the
enterprise, apartment 220 Commercial
! t.Ub building, this city, was secured,
and an Issue of 120,000 shares of
treasury stock was put upon the mar
nnd It Is expected will all be taken
very likely this month, or at best be-
fore the end of July.. Mr. Perks had
a small force of men working all wln-
ter on the company's ditches and now
tin 12 mlneds and laborers employed
installing: a sawmill and preparing for
the reception of more than 80,000
pounds of other material en route. So
soon as all Is landed on the ground
a larger force will be set at work,
and by August 16, or not later than
September 1, It Is expected to have
the company's giants at work, and by
December 1, the company Is confident
It will return to each stockholder the
entire amount of his Investment, and
for the next 25 years pay dividends
of from 200 to 400 per cent on all out
standing stock. This is the predic
tion of the men behind the proposi
tion, and those who most Intimately
know them will at once agree that
they are not any of them addicted to
visionary Illusions.
A question often and reasonably
asked by many persons who for the
first time have read of this wonder
ful channel bed of gold. Is how that
It has remained for half a century
when 'more than $100,000,000 were
mined from the gulches emptying In
to it between 1860 and 1865. The
answer Is that this ground could not
be mined without gravel elevators,

f
Your Stomach
Is Your Friend
If you have a good stomach and wish to keep It,
steer clear of lard-cooked food. Lard is made from
hog fat, and is more apt to be impure than it is to be
clean and healthful.
Cottolene is the most reliable frying and shorten
ing medium. It is a pure, wholesome, digestible
product, that is bound to be more satisfactory than
lard wherever it is given a fair test.
Besides being more healthful, Cottolene is more
economical than lard or cooking
butter, one-third less being re
quired. It will, moreover, make
more nutritious food than either
lard or butter.
With all these advantages
on the side of Cottolene, what
argument have you for not using
it? Your own grocer, if he is
progressive, has Cottolene for
sale. Buy a pail to-day, use it
according to directions, and we
will warrant you will never go
back to the lard habit;
