REV. HARD FOUND BOOZE.
Walla Walla Minister Says Oregon
Dry" Town Are Xot "Dry."
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.

"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

Xew Plan Evolved by Brain of Wash

"Got a license to drink?"
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.

SECRETARY GARFIELD
- HF.RE TONIGHT

ton Commercial association during
the early evening and at 8:30 the El
lis home on Lewis street, will be
thrown open for a public reception In
honor of the secretary, who Is a son
of the martyred president, James A.
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
