TIRED OF CITIZENSHIP.
Umatilla Iudiau Ask to Have Tribal Gov
ernment Restored.
All the Indians on the Umatilla res
ervation, says yesterday's Pendleton
Tribune, will assemble in council to
memorialize congress to take from
them the rights of citizenship and with
hold the same from them for a period of
22 years, or until they are entitled to
patents to their lands under the allot
ment act. The initial steps in this di
rection were taken a few weeks ago
when the first assembly was held. On
Tuesday a second council was called to
order and speeches were made by Chiefs
Peo, No Shirt. Young Chief and many
others. After the addresses a memo
rial which had been drawn up and
signed by every Indian on the reserva
tion, each acting under the advice of
the three leaders.
The memorial states in effect that the
Indians do not wish to become citizens
until 1917, when they will be entitled
to their patents; that in the year men
tioned the children, who are making
rapid advances at school, will be better
able to enter into possession of the
lands and to hold the same and to cul
tivate it after the manner of the whites
than are the Indians of the present day;
that the Indians wish to be restored to
their tribal laws and customs.
A JUST VERDICT.
Tom Lewla Convicted for Buraing Hay
Near Antelope.
The case of the state vs. Thomas
Lewis was given to the jury about 5
o'clock yesterday afternoon, and within
thirty minutes the court was informed
that a verdict had been reached. When
the verdict was read it was that the
jury had found the defendant guilty as
charged in the indictment. Thecrime
for which Lewis was tried was the
burning of 80 tons of hay belonging to
Mr. Brosran. near Antelope, on tlie
night of the 13th of November. Al
though the evidence given in the trial
of this case was entirely circumstantial,
it was so conclusive that the jury could
arrive at no other conclusion than that
the defendant was the guilty party.
This has been one of the most ex-
pensiue cases to the county that has
been tried during the present term of
court, sixteen witnesses having been
brought from Antelope, but it is money
well expended, for Lewis' crime is one
that should not ero unpunished. So
ciety has no protection against the
diabolical deeds of an incendiary, ex
cept the punishment meted out by the
courts after the crime has been com
mitted, the property of the victim
destroyed, and whenever one of this
class of criminals is brought to justice,
society feels the relief that it may
serve to prevent other similar crimes.

season in conversation, dainty cards
were handed round, bearing the old
saying "A penny for your thoughts,"
the ' artistic work of Miss Bessie
French. Of course one would expect
brilliant gems of thought under such
circumstances. If the result was not
equal to the anticipation, it must have
been the subject chosen, which was a
copper cent, and was found to contain
various objects of interest An unrav
elling of the mysterious lesson from
its hidden secrets proved that Mrs. G.
C. Eschelman, Mrs. E. M. Wilson and
Mrs. Hostetler had studied the ques
tion well, and after drawing straws
Mrs. Eschelman was awarded the prize.

An aged American lady is presumed
to be speaking in Australia.
On Austral's shore at times I lay
On summer nights before my door,
And listen to an old time lay,
Which I have often heard before,
Around my youth's beloved home
America, my home.
A lament 'tis, in music told.
Recalling childhood's years and scenes.
Which had been left for glittering
gom,
Which once attained how paltry seems
When weighed against the loss of all
Which fills life's path with pleasant
ways,
The loss of home, sweet friendship's
can;
From this alone spring peaceful days.
.vow i age Dy wooas ana rivers,
Far from thee dear land, my home,
Sadly feeling I shall never,
Never more the old paths roam.
Of their land, let strangers sing,
I can love but thee my own,
And to thee my aged heart clings,
America, my Home!

GOOD TIMES AHEAD.
Mr. Sufert Reports Prosperous Times in
the East.
Mr. F. A. Sufert returned Monday
from a month's visit to New York.City,
where he had been looking after the
iish shipping business. He says there
is an increasing demand for frozen
fish for shipment to England, and the
outlook for the business next year is
flattering. Columbia river salmon and
sturgeon are sought after both for con
sumption in New York and for ship
ment to Europe, and the demand far
exceeds the supply. When asked re
garding times in New York, Mr. Seu
fert said they were good. Everybody
seems to be prosperous. Factories of
all kinds ace running on full time, em
ploying full forces of operatives, and
an air of general prosperity prevails
throughout the east. The wages of
operatives are. somewhat lower than in
former times, but they are getting what
they consume at 50 per cent reduction,
nonce are making more real money
than formerly. The same is true of
the farmers, whoso products are com
manding a somewhat lower price than
they did a few years ago, but on the
other hand everything they have to
buy is also cheaiKM-, hence they are
comparatively prosperous. Through
out the east Mr. Seufert says th
appears to be considerable activity in
all branches of business, and all are
looking forward to prosperous times
next year.

A Serious A-t-ilfnt.
An accident occurred Tuesday at
the Locks in which a man by the name
of Smith came near losing his life.
Just before the steamer Dalles City
was ready to leave for Portland. a blast
at the government works was dis
charged, throwing a rock high in the
air, and as it descended it crashed
through the deck of the steamer strik
ing Smith on the head, inflicting seri
ous injuries. The injured man was
taken to Portland and placed in a hos
pital where he will be cared for. The
accident was one of those unforseen
occurrences that happen only once in
a lire tune, and while such an accident
will likely never occur again, it could
not have been foretold or psevented.
ISO blame could be attached either to
the orlicers of the boat or the men in
charge of the work who discharged
the blast.

His VVhert Deal at Pendleton.
Yesterday's East Oregonian has the
following:
Reports came from Adams that a
lot of bluestem was sold at 40 cents on
the platform. "No. 1 club also sold for
40 cents'. It has been predicted that
the market would soon begin to arouse
from the sluggish, condition in which
loc many weeks it lay. .The arousing
has come, and the 40 cent sales are in-
doubitable evidence of the truth of the
assertion. In addition to these sales
comes the hews that, today, an option
was sought and obtained on -100,000
bushels held "by Pendleton parties.
The option was for a . purchase at ' 40
cents, and expired at 11 o'clock this
ning. - Such-a round lot, 'although
it is not all in one warehouse, but is
scattered among .several stations, is
very eagerly sought after by the wheat
buyers, at all times when there if any
demand whatever."

Mrs. Phoebe Thomas, of Junction
City, 111., was told by her doctors she
had consumption and that there was
no hope for her, but two bottles of Dr.
King's New Discovery completely
cured her and she says it saved her
life. Mr. Thomas Eggers, 139 Florida
street, San Francisco, suffered from a
dreadful cold, approaching consump
tion, tried without result everything
else then bought one bottle of Dr.
King's New Discovery and in two
weeks was cured. ' He is naturally
thankful.' It is such results, of which
these are samples, that prove the won
derful efficacy of this medicine in
coughs and colds.; Free trial bottles at

Another Dastardly Deed.
If the following from the Antelope
Herald is true, another lynching in
Crook county may be expected pro"
vided the wretch is caught who has
been committing dastardlv deeds in
the vicinity of Mitchell :
" The fiendish thugs who have been
burning hay in the Mitchell and Bridge
creek countries this fall, not beinc
satisfied with this fiendish practice
alone, have now turned their attention
to the the poisoning of sheep. Last
.week Mr.' James Connolly, who re
cently had all his hay burned by in-
cindiarism, had 400 head of his sheep
poisoned on the range, either saltpetre
or strychnine having been used. Con-
rOy & Joyce a few days 'afterwards lost
about fifty head in a similar manner.
This is the most despicable practice
ever instituted in Eastern Oregon, and
every possible effort should be made to
ferrett out the perpetrator, and if
caught, he should never be allowed
time to say his prayers."
A Pleasant Surprise.

Earnest Willerton were given a pleas

Old Bully Ran. Away.
For the past thirty years Mr. J..W.
Vanbibber ;has delivered milk in this
city each day, and never had a mishap
until Wednesday, when Old Bally,
his trusted and true horse; who
hauled the milk wagon for four years
and never before showed a disposition
to betray the confidence imposed ifl
him, concluded to take a spin. This
insane idea entered his head while Mr.
Vanbibber was delivering- milk on
Third street near the convent, and
taking advantage of the opportunity
offered broke away at a fearful pace
up one street and down another, scat
tering milk cans promiscuously about
until he wae caught by Mr. Wiley in
the eastern part' of the city. No ma
terial damage was done, except the
spilling of some eight gallons of milk,
but since Mr. vanbibber is not wont
to "cry over "spilled milk," he has no
serious regrets only that he has lost
confidence in Old Bally and will dis
cipline him in the . field dragging the
plow until his conduct is such as to re
store confidence.
. Bold Burglars at Antetopc.
Mr. Smith French received a letter
last night from Mr. V. Bolton stating
that the safe in Bolton & Co's store at
Antelope was blown open sometime
Sunday night and atiout $400 in cash
stolen.. . Nothing in the store w&.s mo
lested, and the burglar left nothing by
which he could be identified. ' The
letter was written hastily and gave no
particulars as to what means were used
for blowing the safe open or how the
rober got into the store.
