I'roni Tlukliiff lr- Order.
Circuit Judge Crawford granted a
temporary injunction enjoinining the
county court from declaring and makinir
of record the result of t lie late election
in Union on the prohibition question.
The complaint, signed by Julius
Roescli of La Grande, alleges that the
petition upon which the order of the
county court submitting the liquor ques
tion to tbe people at t)e June election
was made insufficient in that it was not
signed by tbe requisite number of qual
ified electors of the vcounty ; that the
c iunty court acted without jurisdiction;
thjit every act of the county cleric in
connection with the electir n as con
cerned the matter of prohibition was
i'legal ; and lastly, that the sheriff failed
entirely in ids duty to post five election
notices in each precinct, excepting the
precincts of Cove, North Powder, 1 and
2 in Union and 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 in La
Orande.

NAME V
CHANGED
REDI STRICT INC OF
NATIONAL FOREST
Heppner to be Known as
UmatillaNNational
Forest .
All of the National forests in
Uncle Sam's domain are being re-
districted.
The changes are being brought
about for the purpose of giving
each supervisor as near as possibl
equal area in order to equalize the
work.
When the forest reserves were
created they were of many different
sizes and have been left this way
until the matter , of redisricting
was taken up.
In the Heppner National Forest
that part of the Blue Mountain re
serve which was attached to the
Heppner territory last fall for ad
rainistrative purposes, will now be
mide permanent By taking this
big slice from the Blue Mountain
reserve and adding it to the Hepp
ner territory the two reserves,-will
be made nearer of equal size.
The name of the Heppner Na
tional Forest has been changed by
the department and after the first
of July will be officially known as
the Umatilla National Forest, the
headquarters, however, will still
be retained at Heppner.
Supervisor Chidsey states that
there are now six rangers under
his charge, but owing to the in
creased territory and extra amount
of work it will be necessary to in
crease the force.
A deputy supervisor and four
OREGON
and Sports of
more rangers will be asked for
Application for the extra rangers
has already been filled. As soon
aj an inspector arrives application
for a deputy supervisor will be sent
in to the department.
Owing to tbe large amount of
office work, Supervisor Chidsey is
nnable to leave the head office in
Heppner and consequently needs a
deputy to carry out the woikprop
erlv. PAID FINE OF
TWENTY DOLLARS
Whistling Jack Too Handy
With a Gun.
Whistling Jack Steward, sheep
herder, flute player and general
entertainer, was fined $20 yester
day by Justice Williams, for carry
ing a concealed weapon.
Steward got handy with a gun
which he exhibited in a manner
not pleasing.
Jack drew a gun on D. O. Justus
and got into trouble. Heretofore
he has been considered as inoffen
Hive.
PROPERTY RIGHT.
Senator Reach to Introduce BUI
Providing; Division ef Hus
band's Holdings.
Should a wife have an absolute right
to one half of the community property
after tbe death of her husband where
she has assisted through years of hard
ship and toil in the accumulation of that
property? State Senator S. C. Beach
believes that she should and with that
belief will introduce a bill in the next
legislature seeking to change the exist-
ng law as it stands.
At present a wife has no protection
under the law, or practically none. Sen
ator Beach has been driven to the eer
ious consideration of the subject by in
stances of this fact which have come un
der his observation. In one case a cou
ple had grown old in Portland and were
well known to the senator. For years
they had straggled and aved until tbev
had accumulated a goodly competence,
and this was done in large part through
he wise management and forethought
f the wife.
The husband died and left a w.ll
which divided the property among hie
roihers and Bisters, leaving the aged
wife with a bare pittance. As a result
of the injustice and the worry oyer it the
woman lost her reason and is now con
fined in a California asylum.
Other instances, perhaps not so pa
thetic, but still unjust, have been ob
served by the senator and as a result he
expects to introduce the bill and make
a hard fi Jit for it during the 1909 session
f the legislature. For some reason the
chief opposition to tbe bill comes from
the lawyers of (he state, tnany of whom
Urge the peculiar objection, for theni,
that the passage of the bill would cause
much litigation. The senator, however,
will make an effort to secure its passage
and enactment i to law.
An excharge says that the largest
yield of lambs ever reported in this
country comes from the sheep ranch of
Jamrs Hartz, a few miles east of Gold-
endale, Wash. Mr. Ilartz has a band
o' 1000 ewes that gave 12S7 head of
lambs. These lambs are now three
weeks old, and riot one of them has died.
This is something remarkable in the
sheep business, and there has probably
never been such a large yield of lambs
from this number of ewes in the north
west before.
Next year you will see 10,000
people living npon the irrigated
lands under the Farnish-Coe, The
Western Land and Irrigation com
pany, and the government projects,
predicts the Echo Register.

A
Forest Supervisor Chidsey now
has a force of men at work in the
HeprJner National Forest, fencing
some of the iavored grass Bpotsfor
use of horses used by the rangers
and other employes of the govern
ment. ,
The fencers are now at work on
Martin Prairie, south of tbe Ham
ilton ranch, where a meadow of GO
acres will be enclosed.
The' estimated cost of this fenc
ing will be about 4,000, and if the
appropriation is allowed it will
take a good force of men all sum
mer to complete the work.
Laborers Coming In.
The vanguard of the host of harve
hands has arrived and is in evidence
upon tbe sidewalks and streets during
the af tern ion and night. Perhaps 150
workmen bave reached the city during
the past wees, and every dav the num
ber is augmented by squads and com
panies gathering from all sections of the
northwest. While harvest is fullv h
month in the future, unless extremely
hot weather ripens the grain too fast,
men seem to be in a hurry to get on the
ground and make arrangements for a
good place during tbe harvest, which
will extend from 40 to 60 days.
The reputation of the good and the
bad men to work for seems tohavegone
on before, as most of the men coming to
town seem to know by nam) the men
they desire to work for and also the
names of those whom they do not desire
to see. All about the hours worked,
the food provided, the accommodations
afforded and the clas of work demanded
seems to be in the minds of tbe men
when they start out to seek employ
ment. Walla Statesman.
