(Special Correspondence.)
Athena, Ore., April 17. Last eve
ning at 7:30 o'clock, special memorial
services were held at the Christian
church In memory of the late Alex
ander McKenzle. The mayor, A. B.
McEwen, represented the citizens
and people of this vicinity at this
service, while Mr. J. M. Potts and L.
J. Foss represented the church. The
pastor was the speaker of the evening
and delivered an appropriate address.
The wheat farm of the late DeBlre
St. Dennis on the Umatilla Indian res
ervation has Just been sold at an ad
ministrator's sale, and was bid in at
$18,000. This farm Is one of the best
farms on the Umatilla Indian reser
vation, and therefore commanded the
highest price.
E. R. Cox who for many years has
been a hardware merchant in this
city, a member of the firm of Cox ft
McEwen, but who went out of busi
ness lat fall and spent the winter in
California has Just returned to this
city. Mr. Cox Is one of the pioneer
citizens of this section and Is a very
prominent member of the Masonic
lodge.
Roads are being graded In every
direction from this city. Mr. Charles
Vllkn has recently been employed
by the county road supervisor to take
chniRo of the roads In this direction
an.l he Is doing efficient work.
The Commercial club of this city
Is co-operating with the county road
authorities in encouraging the build
ing of especially good roads In the Vi
cinity of. Athena. The matter of build
ing a first class macadam road from
Athena to Pendleton is being widely
agitnted in this sectlun and seems to
meet with general approval. It Is es
timated that the actual cost of con
struction would not be a burden as
there can be had plenty of stone al
most all the way along the road.

IIM IT CROP IV INLAND
EMPIRE WILL BE BUMPER
Spokane, Wash. Representatives
of transportation companies predict
that the fruit crops in Washington,
Idaho, Oregon and Montana and
along the border in British Columbia
th! (season will be double the pro
duitlon In 1908, the banner year In
the history of the northwest. Esti
mates for the Inland empire alone
rangn from 14,000 to 16,000 cars, of
which It is expected that about 9600
will come from eastern and central
Washington. Shippers In the Yaki
ma distr.ct place the yield there at
from 3600 to 4000 cars, and the We
natchee valley looks for fully 3500
cars. Crops In Spokane and other
counties in the extreme eastern part
of this state will also ! heavy. Grow
ers In the Lewlston district expect
to harvest from 11,600,000 to $2,000.
000 worth of fruit and other parts
of northern and southern Idaho also
report the outlook bright for big
yields while indications arc that Mon
tana and Oregon will have larger
crops than ever before. Fast train
service between points In central
Washington and St, Paul and Chica
go Is promised.

MOVING PICTURE. ARTISTS
INVADE CENTRAJi OREGON
Madras, Ore. That central Oregon
is becoming exceedingly well adver
tised as a homeseeker's mecca, is at
tested by the circumstance that from
two to a half dozen campers' wagons
loaded with household goods stop over
in Madras every night.
Most of these continue on to south
crn Crook and northern Lake coun
ties, where there are still many sec
tions of government land open to en
try. While most of the desirable govern
ment land In this section has been fil
ed upon, the entires made with the
land commissioner at this place aver
age about eight a week, the greater
portion of these being homesteads.
The M. E. Thompson company,
which recently purchased the townsite
of Madras, has had a photographer
In this vicinity for the past three days
who is taking views to be used in
moving picture shows to be given at
Portland, Seattle and Spokane, show
ing the attractions of this section for
investors and homeseekers.

1500 CLERK SAVES
NATION TWO CENTS
Washington, April 14. President
Taft's advocacy of economy in public
expenditure has struck a responsive
chord in an Individual signing him
self "A $500 Clerk." In a letter to
Secretary MacVeagh he says:
"During the last year, by omitting
to cross my 't's' or dot my Ts' I have
saved the government two cents In
Ink. Will you please add this to my
salary? I am now using lead pen
cils down to one-half Inch. I hope
in this way to save another cent. Long
live this economical administration!
"I am short of paper or I would
write a longer letter. We are one
year nearer the poorhouse."
Wonderful New Pnlaoe.
t. Petersburg. The czur's new pal
ace at Lavadla, in the Crimea, will be
a wonderfully beautiful building. It
Dili bo built entirely of Balaklava
stone, which, when polished, resem
bles pure amber, giving buildings of
which it is constructed a fairy-like
uppenrance.
The new palace will be completed In
1912.
The only part of the present palace
Which is to remuin standing Is the
chapel, built about 100 years ago, end
considered a masterpiece. Among
other treasures this building contains
an elegant marble cross mounted on
a pedestal of Crimea porphyry, which
was presented to the Czar Alexander
II. by the workmen of Llvadia as an
expression of their gratitude for the
emancipation of the serfs.
Farmers In the northwest, Mr. J.
J. Hill told President Taft, "are a
month ahead of time planting their
crops, because of the fine weather."
And the fine weather, he did not add,
is due to a republican administration
and the . Payne-Aldrich tariff law.
Think what a backward, doleful spring
we would have had otherwise.
