Official City and County Paper-
"FIGHTING HOB.''
Under these circumstances it seems
strange that In the fight he has been
v nging Mr. OMwell should meet with
such' peculiar difficulties. Twice has
his complaint been dismissed on de
murrers. In other words he has l -en
thrown out of court without a trl. l.
He has had no chance to go iiiio court ,
and prove hl3 claims although the
case Is one if the utmost Importance
ret only to himself, but to the In
dians and to this entire section of
Oregon. , .
The dismissal of the amended com
plaint a few days ago came under pe
culiar circumstances Indeed. ' Mr
Caldxvelf thought he had a lawyer. Yet
that lawyer did not appear in court
to uphold his interests nor. did he tell
Mr. Caldwell . that the case was to
come up so he' could get some one
else to appear for him.
It is a strange pass, to say the least,
when litigation In the United States
courts Is carried on in this manner.
Such proceedings tend to make a
mockery of justice and cause people
to look upon the law' and upon law
yers with contempt and scorn,
William Caldwell should go ahead
with his case and fight it to the last
ditch. It is a case worth fighting
and if he can win out In the end his
victory will be the finer because of
the reverses he has encountered thus
far.

NOT A CITY SHOW.
GO ON AND FIGHT IT OUT.
For his determination to go ahead
with his suit to establish reservation
water rights William Caldwell deserves
praise and he is entitled to the back
ing of all people who stand for justice
to the Indians and for the welfare of
Pendleton and its tributary territory.
The fight for the establishment of
reservation water rights is a fight for
the right and it is a fight for the de
velopment of this part of Umatilla
county. Pendleton's hope for future
growth rests much upon the irriga
tion and settlement of the reserva
tion. If we are to have irrigation of
any consequence on the upper river
it must be upon the reservation. The
Ir.dian land is beautifully adapted to
irrigation. The river flows directly
through that region. The Indians
need the water upon their land. -The
allotments are In small tracts and at
present produce crops only every other
year. Unless ( their land can be Irri
gated the Indians cannot make a liv
ing off the allotments that have been
given them and live as the govern
ment teaches them to live. The In
dian? are justly entitled to water for
their allotments and we have it upon
no less an ' authority than United
States Attorney John McCourt that
they have a legal right to water for
their land.
It is quite natural much criticism
should be made of Messrs Raley and
Gwinn for their action in becoming
interested in a frontier show in Los
Angeles. Their action places them
selves and this city in an Inconsistent
position because Pendleton has here
tofore bitterly opposed the establish
ment of similar shows in other towns
In defense of the course taken by
the two . men it is pointed out that
Los Angeles, unlike Portland and
Spokane, is far away and will not
interfere with our frontier celebration
As to whether or not this is true peo
ple will probably differ. The East
Oregonian will not attempt to sayf
for this paper Is content to leave the
matter in. the hands of tho Round
up board. .
But there Is one feature of the case
that seems worthy of comment. The
Los Angeles frontier show is not go
ing to succeed. A performance simi
lar to the Round-Up cannot be suc
cessfully pulled off in any large city.
It is not a city show.
Strangers who have visited the
Round-Up have found much of their
entertainment in what may be term
ed the local atmosphere. The whole
country here is back of the Round
Up and the men who perform are
right in from the range. There la
naturalness and color about our show
and these things help it greatly.
These qualities cannot be transplant
ed.. Any attempt to produce a show
with these characteristics in a
large city is doomed to failure. When
such a show is taken to a large city
it becomes a mere wild west perform
ance and it loses all its charm.
If the East Oregonian should offer
any advice to Messrs Raley ' and
Gwinn it would be to' the effect that
they refrain from investing any real
money in the Los Angeles enterprise.
Ic often occurs that gentlemen from
the country go wrong when they get
into the whirl of urban life and our
friends should beware lest they meet
with such fate and be obliged to come
home with a sad tale.

MADERO'S HEAVY BURDEN.
The fast-thickening troubles of
Francisco I. Madero, Jr., president of
Mexico, have taken a dramatic turn
in- his narrow escape from a plot by
which he was to be assassinated and
General Bernardo Reyes placed at the
head of the provisional government.
The conspiracy was unearthed by
Mexican secret service officials, who
found incriminating documents In the
possession ow prominent army offi
cers,' who were forthwith arrested'.
Within itself, the occurrence is of rel
ative minor importance, and may be
expected to herald similar ones in the
near future and for some time to
come. Its main importance is the fact
that it confirms the previous pre
dictions of widespread disaffections,
not only in the Mexican army proper,
which has never shown any love for
Madero, but as well In the provinces,
in which local self-government is a

"Some time ago I was comini: up some
steps when the board crushed under me like
an egg shell, and my ri;,-lit limb went through
to the knee, and scraped
the flesh off the bone just
inside and below the knee.
I neglected it for a day or
two, then it began to hurt
me pretty badly. I put

the poison, but when I had
"used it a week, it hurt so
badly that I changed to
ointment. That
made it smart and burn so
badly that I couldn't use it any more, and
that wai th fourth week after I was hurt.
"Then I began to use Cuticura Ointment
for the sore. It stopped hurting Immediately
and began healing right away. It was a bad
looking sore before Cuticura Ointment healed
It, and I suffered to I couldn't sleep from
two days after I fell until I began using
Cuticura Ointment.
"Cuticura Soap b the beat soap I ever
saw. I hare used all kinds of soap for wash

face smarting. I bad to keep a lotion to
stop the smart, no matter bow expensive a
soap I used. I find' at last in Cuticura Soap
a soap that win clean my face and leave no

lotion or anything else to ease it. I believe

ONE OF THE BRIGHT PLACES.
i WA
Pendleton has no institution more
meritorious in Its character than the
public library. We have a fairly well
equipped library and it la exceedingly
well conducted. It serves a valuable
purpose as a dispensur or information
upon all sorts of subjects. It pro
vides the people of the city with good
books to read and the library quar
ters' furnish a pleasant place where
men, women and children may go and
rest while they peruse books, maga
zines and newspapers. -
The influence of a good public li
brary is far reaching. Its effects up
on young people are especially bene
ficial. It develops the habit of read
ing and Inculcates a taste for good
literature. People who patronize a
library do not live in the narrow cir
cle of their personal surroundings.
They have all the world, past and
present, at their command. They
may commune with the best minds
the world has produced and profit by
the knowledge of all ages. Know
ledge is power and it Is what distin
guishes men from the brute creation.
Uublic libraries are storehouses of
knowledge and at the same time they
are theatres for the entertainment of
the people. The lamp of learning is
always burning there and it burns for
all who seek its rays whether they
be rich or poor, patrician or pleblan.
The Pendleton public library richly
deserves all the financial support It
gets from the city and from private
sources and it is worthy of Increased
patronage from the public.

Madero, or any other man who
mounts the presidential tr'bune. must
expect a recurrence of these incidents
for an Indefinite perioa. Diaz ruled
Mexico, but he never , fostered any
policies which would teach the masses
lessons In the art of government. He
never informed them that govern
ment Itself i could not accomplish
everything, that abuses would be re
formed slowly, and that it required
time, decades in many Instances, for
a people largely untutored to become
intelligently self-governing. Madero
