About 60 Siwash bucks from the Uma
tilla Indian reservation, with 250 head
of cayuees came over from Umatilla
county this week and established Bum
mer quarters near the coal mines of the
Oregon Railroad & Coal company.
Nearly all of the land in this vicinity is
deeded and the Indians were invited to
move on. They reluctantly complied
with the request after considerable pow
wow. Thev came to hunt and range
their horses. As the Indians have ro
regard for the game laws, by the time
the season opens all the game would be
killed or chased out of the country.

;nil I'ricrs ICciilixed on 150,000
founds of Wool Offered.
Shaniko, Ore., June 10. At the wool
sales at this place today, out of the 1,
000,00(1 pounds of wool offered , 750.0C0
pour ds were sold and 250,1)00 withdrawn.
Trices on the various individual lots
ranged about the eame as yesterday's
sale, from 12(15 cents. In today's
sales were several of the large lots
notably those of II. Hinton, Thomas
Brogari, II. C. Cooper, II. Wakerling, J.
Cartwright and the Baldwin Sheep
l.acd Company, the last consisting of
over 500,000 pounds. The wools from
their finest bied sheep were offered in
separate lots and brought about 2 cents
about the highest prices paid for any
other individual clip. The buyers to
day were: V. Kuhn, cf the Botany
Mills; William Ellerv, of llal.'owe'l &
Donald, and E. H. Biingham, of Whit

Cuttle at Low Price.
Pendleton, June 11. Fred Phillips
shipped five carloads of cattle to Carstens
Bros, of Seattle on Monday, and four
carloads yesterday. He also has five
cars contracted with Gibson, to be de
livered at Kenwick on the 20th of this
month.
Four of the cars were bought of Rine
hart, three of Brigham and two of Roach
Bros. ; some were also purchased from
Cuntzler, This is the shipment of Mon
day and yesterday.
The stock market, both a" regards
cattle and hogs, has almost hit the bot
tom of the price bucket. Some of the
stock bought in the recent sales only
brought $4.35 as a top figure, and around
this figure it hovers above and below,
as the condition of the cattle varies.
Ooly a month or less ago the quotation
scaled from $4.25 to $4.75, and cattle
were scarce at that. Now all kinds of
stock can be bought at $4.25$4.35.
This fact is due in great measure to
the importation of Southern beef to fill
the shortage. Perhaps a month ago
there may have been a shortage, or at
least the growers did not consider their
stock ready for the buyer, hence the
mnrket kicked the beam. The buyers
did not feel justified in paying the prices
asked and went elsewhere. They bought
cheap cattle in California, Texas an
even in New Mexico and Indian Terri'
tory and shipped them in. The hole in
the demand was filled and naturally the
price in the local market fell. Or it
might be that the Oregon producers
saw that they could not hold out against
the cheap beef of the South, and de
cided to let their stock go for what was
offered instead of trying to force the
market.
But whatever the reason, the market
is low, and all the buyers have no diffi
culty in filling their orders.
The cattle, too, are in good condition
There is a large number of growers who
have fed hay until grass came, and then
turned their herds out on green ranges
to finish for market. As a result, the
beef is fat and sweet, and in good de
mand. But thev waited too long to get
the prices out of the branches of the
market tree; they are sprouting now
down in the reach of all.

San Juan, Torto Rico, June 12. The
stir In the press of the United States
over tne rennsyivania iioei Jaw is
eshoed in the newspapers of Porto Rico,
where most drastic code provisions pre
vail against the press. Under the pen
al code of Porto Rico, recently adopted,
it is unlawful to publish in any news-
piper, handbill, poster, book or sup
plement thereto, the portrait of any liv-
irlg person residing in Porto Rico othej
than that of a person holding a public
office in Porto Rico, without first ob
taining the written consent of such per
son, the only exception being in the
case of a person convicted of a crime
It is alpo illegal to publish in the man'
ner named any caricature ot any per
son residing in Porto Rico, which cari
cature will in any manner rellect upon
the honor, integrity, manhood, virtue,
reputation, or business or political mo
tives of the person so caricatured, or
which tends to expose the individual
caricatured to public hatred, ridicule or
contempt. The newspapers of Porto
Rico will make a strong effort at the
next session of the Legislative Assem
bly to'hnve thp law amended.

Hig Mining: Ileal.
Baker City, June li. One of the
largest mining deals recorded here for
some time has just been closed. The
Ladd Metals Company., a $500,000 cor
poration, headed by C. E. Ladd of Port
land and W. II. Adams of New York,
has purchased the Iron Dyke copper
mine in Baker County, across the Snake
River from Seven Devils.
A town is being laid off, named Home
Btead. About June 15 work will begin
on the erection of a smelter which will
be of 75 tons capacity per day. It will
be increased to more than 1,000 tons per
day as soon as possible. The nearest
railroad point to the works is at Nagle,
near Huntington, a distance of 50 miles
The Ladd Metals Company bus pur
chased 12 six-horso teams which will
begin hauling building material and ma
chinery to Homestead immediately, in
order that construction work may begin
June 15.
In the 6melter will be introduced a
number ot new features never before
used. One will be a furnace which will
be heated by new fuel. The cost of in
stalling the furnaces is $15,000 each.
It is believed that the introduction of
these improvements and the consequent
building up of the country will cause
the Northern railroad to realize the
necessity of building down the Snake
River to control the tratlic that will
come from these sections.
The new merger company has also
acquired holdings of the Consolidated
Copper Mining Company at Mineral
City, Ida.
ie iilioiuil Itpscrre Policy.
Denver. June 11. In a bulletin issued
Tuesday by Secretary Levering, of the
National Woolgrowers' Association, the
new policy of the Administration in re
lation to forest reserves is announced.
The bulletin speaks positively, and is
understood to be inspired, as Senator
Warren, cf Wyoming, is the presided
of the association and is close to Presi
dent Roosevelt and Commission r
Richards, of the Land Otlice, who is
said to be now in control of the the
forest-reserve business of the Interior
Department. The bulletin says that as
result of an investigation bv Mr.
Barrett, of the Department of Forestry,
a large part ot the Yellowstone reserve,
in Wyoming, has b-:en returned to the
public domain, and that Mr. Barrett is
now examining the old Yellowstone rc- 1 f
