According to its title, it is a "Hap of the State of Oregon and Washington Territory compiled in the Bureau of Topogl Eng'rs chief ly for military purposes by order of Hon. John B. Floyd, Sec of War. 1859." West of the Cascade mountains roads and streams, towns and moun tain ranges are shown in consider able detail, but to the east there is a large white spot with the word "Unexplored" printed across it. In all of what Is now central and eastern Oregon only the streams on the border are shown. ' Harney and Malheur lakes appear, but un named. Ia the south, however, are the various lakes of Klamath and Lake counties named as they are today, the reason being, of course. the Fremont expedition which tra versed central Oregon and ave names to these bodies of water. , Captain Fremont's route of 1843 is shown, for the most part, west of the Deschutes, which is called on the map "Fall River." The mountain peaks Hood, Jefferson Three Sisters, Diamond and Pitt appear, but no passes through the Cascades. Washington territory in eludes all of Idaho, while east of that is Nebraska territory. South of Oregon and next to California is Utah territory, Nevada being un named. Wherever your eye wanders over the map, however, it always comes back to the white spot that is Central Oregon with curiosity as to when this was first explored and mapped. It has been suggested before in this column, and the map causes a renewal of the suggestion, that it would be of great interest to form a local historical society to search out the facts of our early history and exploration and see that they are perpetuated in some way. . Who. would like to form such an association? KLAMATH AND THE COMMISSION In view of the criticism which has been expressed here for what has been called the "failure" of the county court to get speedier action from the state highway commission on Deschutes county roads, the fol lowing from the Klamath Herald concerning the road situation there is of Interest: "Being dissatisfied with the bids that were submitted for the im provement dp the highways of the county, the state, highway commis sion at Its meeting this week de cided to call for new bids, and set October 7th as the date upon which they will toe opened. This would seem to indicate that it is a case of goodbye to any extended im provement, of the roads of the county this year; and residents will have to face the same condition of mud and ruts that caused the up rising last year. "This state aid is a great thing for the gentlemen who are banding it out. Klamath county would bo far better off In the end If it told the state to keep its money and make a go of it alone, for judging from the 'splendid progress' that has been made so far this year it will cost the county three times what It should to get good roads, besides being out the use of them for years. Klamath county should do its own road work alone, and what it does do should be perma nent."

V ; GERMANS SEEK NEW DIPLOMATS FORMER OFFICERS NOT WANTED. Men Who Will lie Acceptable in World Capitals Must lie Chosen in Killing liorur 1.1st of Vacancies, By Cart D. Groat (United Praaa Staff Correepondentl BERLIN, Sept. 1$. The new re public is finding selection of diplo mats a real job. Of course. It isn't entirely necessary that Germany make out a whole slate of ambus sadors and ministers just yet, par ticularly it entente nations only send their charge d'affaires. But the policy of the government will probably be. in such an event, to send out changes and consuls the charge perhaps being the man in tended for the higher post of mln later or ambassador when full diplomatic relations with the out side world are resumed. Germany's difficulty arises from the fact that some of the men of the old diplomatic service would be persona non grata at certain capitals, while the new regime so far has not produced many big prospects of ambassadorial size. So far, in connection with the American ambassadorship, only two names have been much mentioned Maximilian Harden and Dr. Solf, the former colonial minister and later foreign minister in the clos ing days of last year. Harden hasn't a chance to go to the Washington post. He has made more or less of a name for himself In America but that doesn't count for anything with, the present situ ation. In fact, he isn't taken seriously by the present govern ment In that connection. On the other hand, Soif has con siderable backing for the place. Solf is a man ot liberal tendencies. He appeared during the war as an opponent of many ot the govern ments policies; and as foreign min ister last winter stuck strongly for strict adherence to the "fourteen points" in application of the peace to Germany. . He speaks English with scarcely an accent, Is favor ably known in many prominent American and English quarters, has traveled extensively, met Presidents Taft, Roosevelt, McKinley, and has been a close student of President Wilson's policies. .He and Col. House were friendly before the war. - ' Solf looks, at first glimpse, some what like American Secretary of Interior Lane, tbongh he Is of heavier build and of more rugged countenance than the American. Solf distinguished himself in Germany at least last winter by his open breach with Haase, leader of the independents. Solf declined to associate with Haase, holding that as leader of the Independents he was cognizant of a big "slush fund" which the Russian Bolsheviks had placed to the credit of the radicals here in Berlin. This caused quite a sensation and helped undoubtedly, in foreign countries, More Time for the things you Want tO do- Buying groceries and provisions for your home always takes time.

I Ho Is ot about mlddlo ngo, active, diplomatic, highly educated and, ac cording to many substantial tier mans, he would he a good rep re sentatlvu of the new republic. Former American Ambassador Bornstoiff Is known to regret thai his poKltlon with the American people Is such that he could not again beconio ambassador to Wash ington. While ho hits been booked tor the Home post, it Is possible that he will decide to abandon diplomacy In favor ot politics, nnd run for the relchstug in the com ing elections. The British and French posts do not even have uny "among-t hose mentioned" people. It isn't a case here of difficulty In finding places "for -. all the deserving" but rather of finding "deserving" and capable men for the places. KING OF ALL "RAINMAKERS" Secret of 8ucceaa of Solly Grssncup, Who It Wall Remembered In the West, Was Simpre. Given an Ingenious mind and an eye to business, a live man can make mon ey out of almost any old thing. Perhaps you remember the extraordi nary succe scored some years ago by Solly Greeneup, the rainmaker, if not. you can read his record in a port folio of newspaper clippings collected all the way from Nome to Sun Diego, from eastern Oregon to western Kan sas. Solly Greeneup. Indeed, occupied for a while a position unique In the annals of meteorology. Scientists might doubt and cynics might scoff, but whenever Solly went after the rain clouds he al ways got 'em. Moreover he dliln't work on "the heatl-!-win, talls-you-lose" principle of some other rainmak ers. Solly Greenenp, w hen he once de cided he could produce rain In a given district, always backed his opinion with hard cash. If he asked the farm ers to put up S1.000 for an Inch of rain, he put up another tl.OUO himself as a forfeit In case he fulled. And he always won. Greeneup never explained his meth ods. All the farmers wanted was the rain. All Greenenp wnnted was the , money. With the result both were satisfied. His apparatus consisted of flag pole, an electric batter7, a klto with a metal tall and an air balloon filled with a mysterious gns. If scien tists demanded the reason for these contrivances, he shook his head and smiled. Sometimes Greeneup would have to stay a long time In n locality before he could find the exact combination necessary to coax the wet forces into action. Sometimes he had to confess that the drys were too strong for him. But as. soon. nJ be coated his forfeit GORDON Today a Ttfe. stiff hat is part of every well groomed man's ward robe.

H ATS CASHMAN, Bend's Clothier The farmer and the business man of this 'com munity are partners in the progress or the failuie of their community. If they pull together, the progress and prosperity is certain to come. . , IF they listen to preachers of class hatred there can only 'be failure as a result.

Once In Klslnore valley he gave the ground a good soaking for a paltry t'.'.&OO, thus saving a Sl.000.00O grain crop. Of course he mude a tidy for tune, yet at the time no one considered his charges exorbitant. And everybody admitted he was a good sport. At he grew wealthy Greeneup never gave himself frills nor assumed the title of "professor." These things were after ward remembered to his credit. A few years ago Greeneup went per manently out of the rnlmnaklng busi ness. In a street car nechlent he lost his left foot, which had to be ampu tated above the ankle. After that for lore or money he refused to experi ment with the weather. When the secret of his success was finally revealed some carping moralists called him make-believe. . He never claimed, like another famous person age, to be In partnership with (he Almighty. But at least he had done something that nobody In the world had ever done before. He had capitalized a corn.

It Is said that It loaves us "naked to our enemies." The answer to (ha objections Is full and complete. First, the Council In formulating the plan and fixing limits must act unanimously". There fore, the plan can not be adopted by the. Council without (ho consent of the Amnrlciiu ItepresentatWe In that body. This Is a guaranty Unit the limits to ho fixed would be not unfair or unreasonable so far Ms wo lire concerned. Secondly, ufter the plan lias been formulated and Iho limits fixed, vach government must accept It before It Is adopted. Therefore, the Govern ment of (he t'nlted Htates through Its constitutional agencies, the tiea-(y-uinklug power and tu this raso the Congress us well, will consent nnd fix the limits of armament If they may deem It wise.
