Tbe transportation committee of the Chamber ot Commerce, la making its annnai report upon tbe transportation conditions ot the state and upon the at titude of tbe great corporations which control traffic conditions, takes a de cided staud against the spirit of inactiv ity that seems to hold these companies in leash. Tbe committee sets out that: When railroad systems combine and agreements are made, by which terri tory is parcelled out and competition is eliminated and an almost perfect u ono poly is created, then a corresponding duty and obligation is created to permit the best transportation facilities possi ble in this territory. It is pointed out in this report that Oregon will be behind Idaho this year in railroad development, though it has furnished every inducement and shown every forbearance towards tbe railroad companies. Themselves refusibg to build, every obstacle has been thrown in tbe way of those who would develop tbe country. Promises have been mada only to be foruotten. In the fcta'e 56 000 square miies are without raiiioad transportation. Iiaihoads from other states and sec tions w i . 1 i b Portland and the state of its nutuiti! tiade. In 1804 tlie;e were 13(52 mi!e3 of rail road in ().-egon, in HK)4, 1778 miles, an increase of only 416 milss including yardage and sidings. Iu Washington iu 1904 were 3392 miles, being 1(514 miles more than in Oregon, though Oregon baa one-third more aiea. Oiegon is gradually dropping behind until today it is at the bottom as re gards ittilroaAdevelopment. The chief danger now threatening the (state is the extension of the road from lltn.i, Nev., into Southern Oregon, thus diverting the Central Oregon business to Calif .rni . Destroyed by fire. The taim residence of Jake Peareon of Lena, was destroyed by fire yester day morning. The tire started from defeotive fluo and was well uuder way in Ibe upper stoiy of the building be fore it wo8 diecovered. Veiy little of tbe contents of the building were saved everything being almost a total loss without any insurance. Mr. Pearson is a poor man and the loss falls heavily upon him. A subscription paper was passed around in the city yeeterday and a good sized sum was subscribed. Chief of U. A. R. Dies. lioisp, Idaho, July 16. General W. W. Blackmar, commander-in-chief of the Grand Army of the Republic, died at 5 o'clock this evening ot interstitial nephritis. His wife was with him dur- ng his illness. The body will be em balmed and taken to the home of the family in Boston. Hug Task. It was a huge task to undertake tbe cure of snob a bad case of kidney di- (ease as that of C. F. Collier, of Chero kee, la., but Electric Bitters did it. He writes: "My kidneys were eo far gone Ioouldnoteit oo a chair without a cushiou; aod suffered from dreadful baokaohe, headache, and depression. In Eleotrio Bitters, however, I fonnd a care, end by them wee restored to per- ici ueaitn. I reonmmeod tbia great Stampmlll ana Sawmill to be lm. mediately Installed. D. B. Stalter, president and manager of the Heppner Mining Co., returned yesterday evening from San Francisco, where be has been to purchase mach inery for the Mayflower m nes. Mr. Stalter brought a complete new outfit of the latest and most improved pat tern. The machinery purchased con sists of a two-stamp mill and a sawmill. Aa there is a large amount of lumber to be used in building am' flaming for the active operation of the mnes, Mr. Stalter figures that it will be cheaper to put in a sawmill than to pin chase the lumber at outside mi. Is which would make a long and expensive haul of lum ber. There is ample water power tit the mine3 to run all of the machinery. The machinery has been shipped and is now on the way to be unloaded at Tip'on. Mr. Stalter expects to have eveiything installed and ready for operation by the first ot September. There is a large amount of ore now on the dump ready to bo milled. Recent developments it lbs mines have shown a pay streak one foot in width that assays $277.35 to the ton. This is ali gold but $2 00. Mr. Stalter in well pleased with tin- prospects aiid is confident that the stamp mill will soon be pounding out the precious metal iu paying q iantities. Cayumcs to le Shot. If the recoQjmeudafibn8 " recently made by the Oregon Domestic Animal commission to the county stock in speotors are carried out, the wild horees that have roamed tbe hills of eastern Oregon for many years will soon be ex terminated. The horses, there a e about 4,000 of them, worth about $2.50 a head, belong to the Indians, princi pally of the Umatilla reservation near Pendleton, and nearly all are infected with mange; by them the disease i. scattered broadcast throughout ihe eastern pa t ot the slate. For mar.y yenr- the ftate vete. inaiian and ether authorities have been at tempting to s'atnp out the disease which frequently attacks the horses of farmers in tbat country, but the efforts have proved futile localise of the prox imity of the wild hoi pes. Not only d ) those mavericks scatter disease but they consume the forage which would snppoit thousands of cat tle and sheep. The destruction they baye wrought to the legitimate grazing industry is incalculable. Ao attempt was made some time ago to have tbe government compel the In dians to corral their animals, treat them for the ramge, or shoot them, but tbe United 8tates attorney general re fused to take action. Toe state author ities, too, have tried to persuade the Indians to care for their animals but without success. The state autho itiea have decided to take the ma'ter into their own hands. Recently Dr. William McLean commun icated with Dr. ilickox, chief of tre western division of animal industry. and asked him for relief. No definite j answer has teen received. Dr. McLean two weeks ago took up i the matter with the Oregon domestic j animal commission, of which Governor Chamberlain is a member, and it was decided to instruct each county stock inspector in the afflicted district to at j once notify ow ners of diseased animals j to take them up and treat them or tbe horses would be shot. The commission j recommended that the counties pay the ' ROYAL Baking MaJkes Gleaurk Bread With Royal Baking Powder there is no mixing with the hands,no sweat of the brow.

In case of refusal the state will stand behind the inspectors to make good r.ny Iof wh'ch the owu- rj of t; e s'ock may suf fer. Dr. McLean has recently beeu inves tigating a peculiar disease in tbe die trict east of the S.uidy river, where a dozc-n or wore animals have died on tht ranges. lie niai a careful examina tion but was onab'e to deter mine what tbe disease wap, other than that It was a peculiar stomach trouble. He was of the opinion that it was caused by thr herds eating some sort of forage plant. Fifth Sunday .llt-cling.
