Oo the other hand a good per.
tion of the trouble comes from the
protest of the homesteaders, and
their claims are that they have
settled id the range districts. All
the land they can take up is 160
acre. Moat of them are poor
people and depend upon the in

from othpr counties with thous

They fet-1 that they ara entitled to

Both sides go to extremes. The

Oregon newspapers just now
have a great deal to say about
Sheriff Cudihee. Why he has not
captured Tracy and his political
chances iu the future are the sub
jects of much editorial comment
It will be remembered that Tracy
and Merrill went from Salem to
the Washington lice and were
hunted by sheriffs of two counties,
but thy escAped. Why did they
let Tracy and Merril get into
Washington. Nothing is said
about thii. It is all about Cudi
bee. Before the Tracy episode,
Cudihee was a popular man. He
had been successful in running;
down bad men. In the hunt for;

splitting is done on your

place descriptive matter in the
bands of people who are looking
to tbe West for homes. The great
resources and advantages of Ore
gon are little known outside of the
borders of our own state. Es
pecially can this be said of the
F.stern portion of the state. The
Willamette Valley has reaped the
benefit of all the advertising here
tofore fent out. Now is the time
to take advantage of the offer of
the railroads. It is the greatest
work of the kind ever attempted.

the Harriman system is very en
thusiastic over the future of Ore-
( until recently) little explored and
little understood territory of the

application of modern evstems of

Grasshoppers are doing some damage
on Butter creek, and Willow and Hinton
creeks. They have appeared in ssveral
different localities in ttreat numbers,
however, the area covered by them is
small. They are very destructive to
alfalfa and gardens. When they attack
a field they do a good job in cleaning it
up. The only wav to save the crop is to
cat it, which i a race between the hop
pers and the farmer. The damage will
not be great, aa the firwt crop of alfalfa
has been cut.
Tbe presence of the graMhoppers re
call previous times when these deotruc-
tive insects inflated certain nnrtinnu nf I
this country. In 1871 they were much
worse than they are this year and hay
fieldi were destroyed. The next year
following came the big black crickets,
but they .Jid not do much damage, ss
they kept around the foothills of tbe
Blue mountains and did rot gpt down
to many bay helds. Many storieo are
yet rmpmbred about the "cricket:
year" of '72. A story is to!. I of on I
