Ky., and IS 16 he went to Warwick county, Indiana. He was el-i-cted to the Indiana loglslaturo In lSS2nnd remained- In. office until 1S46, when the MexU-an war broke out. He tnlisted as a private in the second Indiana volunteers. He quick ly became colonel of the regiment and later :s appointed by President Polk ; brigadier general. Ho was wounded at the battle of l.uer.a Vista, was brevetted a major general for gallantry at Huumantla, commanded at Atllxco, took Mata moras Nov. 22, 1S47, captured Oriz aba, In January 1S4S, and the next month fought the robber chief Jar anta at Tchualaplan. , He was known at the ".Marlon of the Mexlean army." At the conclusion of the Mexican war General Lane was appointed by President Polk as governor of Ore gon. As a democrat he was elected as a delegate to congress and served from 1S51 to 1S57. In 1S53 he com manded the settlers in a campaign against she Rogue Indians whom he defeated it. a battle near Table Rock in which he was severely wounded On the admission of Oregon as a state General Lane was elected as United States senator and served from 1853 to 1S61. In 1S60 he was nominated for vice president on the Brecken riilse ticket. His defeat ended his po litical career and he passed his old age in obscurity and poverty. James Johns, former Pendleton high school student and now at the state university, is winning many hon ors for Pendleton. His latest victory was in the quarter mile dash In the tri-slate meet Saturday and his suc cess should console local athletes for their grief because the high school track team could do no better than win third place in the high school meet at Eugene. TILE SAME OLD FIGHT. The present controversy over the opening of the Alaska coal fields Is but a continuation of the Pinchot Ballinger fight started at the nation al irrigation congress two years ago. The question involved is shall the nat ural resources of the nation be de veloped and used with a view to ben efitting all the people or shall they TUa : . .. 1 reads talk In Oregon but when It comes to action many are woefully weak. MAY 15 IX HISTORY. 1347 The Emperor Charles V. laid before the diet of Aughburg "a rule or faith," which he compelled them to acquiesce in, notwithstanding that it was disapproved byjjoth protest ants and catholics. 1645 Battle of Aldern, In which be given into the hands of multi-1 the Earl of Montrose defeated the millionaire trust magnates so those !Scots under Urre'- wltn sreat slau" gneier. men may make enormous profits therefrom and increase their collos sal riches. It is charged by the anti-conserva-Uonlsts that they stand for the open ing of the coal fields while those on the other side oppose this develop ment. The charge Is a lie. Xo one opposes developing the Alaska coal fields or other natural resources The controversy has to do with own ership, not with development The logical thing to do with refer ence to Alaska coal would be to al- 1664 The Dutch governor surren dered the Island of Cayenne to the French by treaty. 1775 Congress resolved to Issue paper money. 1781 Fort Granby surrendered by the British to Col. Lee. 1804 The life of George Washing ton compiled by John Marshall from his own manuscripts published sim ultaneously in England and America. 1820 Florence Nightingale born. 1836 The village of Roanoke, on the Chattahooche, Ga., attacked and stormed by 300 Indians and burned to ashes. 1846 At a council of war the Sec- low the Guggenhelma to mine It If retary of War and Gen Scott planned they wish but for the government to retain the ownership of the coal fields. Those w-ho mine the coal should t? allowed to sell it at such prices as to afford them a fair profit on their equipment investment and upon the work they do. They are en titled to nothing more. The rest be longs to the public. This is the conservationist idea and were it not for the opposition of the Morgans and the Guggeinheima this country would now have laws provid ing for the development of our re sources upon such a basis as this. The Guggenht-lms are not satisfied to take their share and to give the I ublic it.j .vhare of the national riches. The monopolists want a cinch on af fair. They want to own or dominate the Alaska coal fields. They want to lf; alj!! to control the f-ituatlon so they may do as thry please with th? Ala.-ku coal. There is no certainty that coal would be mined if they con trolled It. They would be liable to hold it in cold storage until the sup ply became more depleted and they could r.iake greater profits than are row possible. The di order at Cordova and the talk of mining the Bering coal regard less of the United States laws is sig nificant principally through the fact that the Guggeriheimu seem back of this disorder. If they are, then they are In dangerous business. They are playing with fire and they may start 8 conflagration they will regret. If the people learn of the true situation they will Insist that laws be passe, to protect the public in Its rights and they will have a national admlnlstra t.on that will enfor'-o the laws: CKXKltAb JOSKPU LANE.

Magazines and other bulky period icals, after July 1, will be transport ed by the postofflce department in carloads as fast freight. Postmaster General Hitchcock Is developing ns rapidly ns possible plans which he de tided upon last December to utilize fast freight trains in the transporta tion of magazines when practicable, and In instances where a saving to the government jntransportatlon may be effected. "The plans I have decided upon," says the postmaster general, "are not proposed as a solution of the pending controversy over the sug gested increase of the second-class mail rates on the advertising sections of magazines but they probably will tend to bring 4ibout a solution of that question the more easily." The quadrennial weighing of the mails In the third contract section of the country, comprising the states of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa and Mis souri, Iowa and Missouri, Is now "In progress. Beginning July 1 periodicals that can be transported In carload lots by fast freight through the section weighed, without disadvantage In de livery, will be carried in this manner and paid for at freight rates. The weights of the periodicals taken dur ing the present quadrennial weighing will be excluded from the basis of adjustment of transportation pay for the four-year term on the railways effected. Distributing terminals have been established in Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, St. Louis, Omaha, St. Paul and Cincinnati. Through matter that can be handled in carload lots will be sent through the weighing section by freight and such additional distribution as is ne cessary before the matter is delivered to other railway post office lines will be done at the terminals. Arrangements will be made with the publishers for a finer separation In the publishing offices, and for an earlier mailing of their matter so that the slower method of transpor tation may affect the regularity or promptness of its delivery. "We expect," says Postmaster Gen eral Hitchcock, "to effect considerable economies, not only In the actual cost of transportation of the matter, but also in the railway postofflce car pay, In the section that is now being weighed, and, as the other sectionss are weighed and the plans adjusted WOMAN ESCAPES OPERATION WasCured by LydiaE.Pink' ham's Vegetable Compound Elwood, Ind "Your remedies have cured me and I have only taken six bottles of Lydia E.
