Row Andreas Bard, rector of St. Paul's Episcopal church, returned this morning from a trip to Portland, and other Oregon points, says the Walla Walla Bulletin. He will leave tonight for Loon lake to get his fam ily and will then return to Walla Walla, later going to the beach, where he Intends to erect a cottage. Rev. Mr. Bard was telling this morning about some of the local op tion districts In Oregon. "Talk about your dry towns all you like." he said. "Since I have seen some of them In abstinent Oregon I have formed an Idea of my own. Tou know I have ever tried to be Impar tial and to avoid cant on either side. I had, therefore, assumed that, If prohibition had once become a law, that no liquors would be sold In th. community. Have You Defective Eyesight ? If so, place your case in the hands of a competent Optician. We use the latest, most scien tific and most thorough method of testing the eyes. We use nothing but the best lenses. Our charges are reasonable and work guaranteed. Louis Hunziker Jeweler and Optician. 716 Main St. "My traveling companion, who was of a more cynical turn of mind, pooh poohed this Idea and said ( that he knew better, I Insisted that I was from Missouri. As we came to the city, he Introduced me to the host, leaving out the "reverend" part, and whispered In his ear that I desired "to be Initiated." "After I had been carefully looked over and deemed acceptable, we were ushered Into a side room and found whisky In abundance, Just as before, only we had to pay double for the prohibited Juice. Now I am not go ing to name the town, nor will I give our host away, because a minister Is not necessarily a detective. But you can take my word for It that this Is gospel truth. On the glorious Fourth I saw In the self-safo town various celebrants full of Joy water, and am ready to be lieve that If you drive the devil ut of one door, he will come In through1 another." j Rev. Andreas Bard had a miracu lous escape from death In Portland, when the automobile In which he and five others were riding crashed Into a street car. The latter was knocked off the track nine feet, and while the automobile occupants were Jarred up considerably, they escaped Injury.

LIVING SKELETON'S LIVING OX DARK. Starving Thousands in China Glad Enough to Get Anything to Eat. In northern China people were eat ing bark off the trees when Osborne Mlddleton was there on a tour from Shanghai. That was about a month ago, according to a letter received by his son, O. Mlddleton, Jr., who Is man ager of the Oregon Pine Export Lum ber company, says tho Portland Jour nal. The country had been swept by fearful dust storms, so that nearly everywhere the growing crops lay burled under four or five Inches of dust. Supplies had run low and the people were without money. Thous ands managed to keep body and soul together by peeling bark off the trees and subsisting thereon. Some were so badly starved that they looked more like skeletons than living beings. The writer says thousands will un doubtedly perish before anything can be done to relieve them. Many were on the verge of death when Mr. Mld dleton left Tien Tsin, about four weeks ago. They did not sem to know where to look for help. Mr. Mlddleton has been In China more than 40 years and Is thoroughly acquainted with conditions there and the people. He has visited Portland several times during his stay in the Orient and expects to spend a few weeks here this fall. WHAT FORESTRY IS DOIXO. I 'He Losses Reduced and Millions Saved. The hostility of western people against some of the aggression, and arrogance of the federal bureau are well Justified and should be main tained, says a magazine review. There Is a little too much pork in the dish of beans that is being served out and this paper has not ben behind hand In commenting upon the facts. And yet, the forestry bureau ha. done some good service In other directions and it la but Just to call attention to it. Thus In an article in the July Mc- ciure's on the forestry bureau, "Will C. Barnes tells of the enormous sav Ing to the government by the check' lng of forest fires. If the forest service had done no more than keep down the fire losses, their work would not have been In vain. In 1901 the total area burned over In the government forest equal led 2 3-4 acres In every thousand, while In 1907 the burned area wa. nly 9-10 of an acre In every thou sand. No record of the money val ue of the earjler fire losses was kept, but that the loss ran Into millions, no one who has seen the miles of burned over tracts can doubt The following table shows the fire osses In the national forests for the past three years: Our lid -Summer Sale Commencing Tuesday, July 7, and Continues Until August 1st.

This question will be asked of their thirsty patrons by the barkeeper, of the state of Washington, If the plan suggsted by E. E. Hall, a republican politician of Spokane, Is put Into exe cution. In ogjer to settle the liquor prob lem, Hall recommends that all license restrictions be removed from the sale of Intoxicants and that the drinkers be made to pay a license fee. Llcens es would be Issued only to temperate and respectable adults and a heavy penalty would be imposed upon any one selling or giving liquor to those not posseslng a permit to drink from the state.

Garfield. A Thorough Inspection. The party made a thorough Inspec tion of tho dam and reservoir, feed canal and lands under the Umatilla irrigation project and the most Im portant feature of the secretary's visit here, is the announcement of the date of the opening of the remainder of the land under the project to set tlement. At the reception this evening Secre tary Garfield will deliver a brief ad dress and will probably review the project as he sees It and It Is hoped that before he leaves for the east a date for tho opening will be fixed. The people of Hermlston have been greatly Interested In the visit of Sec retary Garfield to the Irrigation pro ject and every possible courtesy was hsown the party today. Six double carriages were used In bearing the party over the project. This after noon the Furnish ditch and the gov ernment feed canal near Echo were Inspected and the vast Idle tracts of rich land which can be reclaimed with water, were looked upon by the sec retary and It is the hope of Umatilla county that he will look with favor upon any project to extend the Uma- That is, in 1905 the loss from fire was more than three times as great as In the year 1907, with an area of forests almost twice as great to pro tect and control. IVnvder Valley Cropa Short. Owing to the unusually scanty rain fall of the Inst few months. Powder liver valley is beginning to present & semi-desert like appearance. Some of the crops are as good as they have been In previous years, but others are almost a failure. The farmers are somewhat discouraged over the small returns now promised for their year's work, yet they say this is one of the exceptional years which can not be avoided. They are hopeful that prices will be large enough this fall to make up In a small degree at least, for the small yield. Many of the prominent farmers re port that the hay crop, alfalfa, wild hay and timothy and clover, will show little shortage this year. The aver age tonnage per acre will be fully as large as last year and the quality of the hay will be good. Alfalfa Is al ready to cut and hay harvest on the large meadows producing wild hay will begin In a few days. It Is ru mored, however, that some of the hay meadows will not produce a good crop because of late frosts and lack of winter snow and spring rain. Baker City Herald.
