BEGINS FOUR YEAR TERM PE
TITION FOR PARDON BEING
CIRCULATED. .
Sheriff Edgar Marvin and Char-lea-
Hour left Fiiday with Tom
Tucker for Sa'em, where Tucker
begins a foiy years term in the
penitentiary He was convicted last
November of the crime of partic
ipating In. a riot . at the Baudon
shearing plant three years ago. No
tice of appeal to the supreme court
was filed and Tucker was released
on $5000 cash bail. The appeal was
not perfected, and a few week ago
Judge Knowles. directed Sheriff Mar
vin to again place Tucker n con
finement. x
Much sympathy is expressed for
Tucker In hia predicament, and it
is intensified by the circumstances
of the failure of the attorneys to per
fect the appeal.
The scene at the train Friday
morning, when Mrs. Tucker was
taking leave of her husband, was
quite affecting.
A petition for his pardon Is find
ing many signers, including some
county officiate. Tucker Is ordinar
ily an. . industrious, law-abiding clti
haft jl large number of
friends. ' ' - .
; On the other hand, many people
say he is undoubtedly guilty of the
crime charged, was found guilty by
a Jury, and should suffer the punish
ment prescribed by law.
MAYOR J. A. BURLEIGH
DELIGHTED ELGIN PEOPLE
Mayor Burleigh pleased everybody
at EIln in hia Fourth of July ora
tlon there so much that ha was pre
vailed on to give another address on
the following day. The Recorder had
thLs ta s&v ot hia speech; .
: The oration, delivered by Hon. J
A. Burleigh, a well known Enterprise
Orcsran legislature, was the best ev
er heard in. Elgin, and one of the
most Interesting ever heard1 In' east
ern Oregon: Mr. Burleigh la not
only a polished orator, but is a
thinker of no small ability, and in
stead of making the "eagle scream"
' I. .the method .used on such oc
caslons, he delivered a straightfor
ward talk on. the present condition
of the United States government and
the duty of the cltteens thereof. One
of the principal, ideas conveyed by
him was that no government Is
better than the cl liens who compose
it, and that whatever defects exist
In . the government of the United
State today is- due to the voters.
"A government can be no cleaner
than It people." ws a fact which
.drove home to his hearers. He made
it plain that it was the duty, of ev
ery citizen to think for himself ana
not to vote was worse than being
an, anarchist. Space forbids giving
details of his oration, but It was to
the point, full of good and whole
some advice, and the manner tn
which he delivered held the audience
In rapt attention during the entire
clme. Numerous times he was stop
ped by the applause and the Im
mense throng lnthe pavilion cheered
llm at the closejv.

Long Beach. Wash., July 29 The
fine weather prevailing on. the North
Eeach, Is bilnglng hosts of visitors
M the ocean, shore, Intent on secur
ing rest and a good coat of tan. ;
The outlook la. particularly brigni
tor a remarkably busy season; this
summer, the number of visitors at
;hds' time being far greater than
aver before at the same time ot the
year.
The march of progress Is evident
-hroufthout the entire length of the
beach, and development being as
sured, prosperity is but a matter
jT course. Work on the Automo-
Dlle 'Boulevarde Is progressing very
rapidly, beach houses by the score"
are being erected, and new rooming
houses and old are being rapidly
put into shape to .take care of the
hoards of summer transient which
Mil soon be down upon us.
The North Beach Push club with f
.(A combined effort, shouldering me
wheel of orogreas. has awakened
in era of activity which will undoubt
edly secure the proper recognition oi
;he unsurpassed advantages of tne
North Beach for enjoyable outings
and, at the same time, all the
comforts, of home.
Negotiations' are now pending with
Portland capitalists for the install
ation of a water system to supply
.h beach and surrounding country
aide with fine mountain water. With
the culmination of this, project, one
ol the obtsacles to an otherwise
.ncora parable locality Is obviated.
One of the mo3t interesting feat
ures of the Wallowa ( County Fair
association's exhibits will be a tnor-
ouh display -of Wallows county
minerals. Several claim owners
have already manifested the lnten
tlon of making an exhibit of the
leadlner ores of their properties, and
this should Inspire all owners of all
mineral prospects to do likewise,
making a distinct and Invaluable fea
ture of the great fair.
"Wallowa county contains some of
the best gold, silver and copper ores
in the country. While the mineral
is at present undeveloped .that fact
does not argue against the presence
of rich mineral deposits here. As
a matter of fact there are more. low.
grade primary deposits in. this coun
ty than, in ninetenths the miner
al producing sections of the United
States. And lit la the primary de
posit which makes In time the big
producer. Primary deposits, again,
are the synonyms of mineral tn
quantity. 'Primary deposits argue
against mere "pockets'' of rich, high
grade precipitations that must run
out eventually.
With good, low-grade primary de
posits of mineral lying just at the
doors of our county fair, It would
De almost wicked . not to Install a
superb collection of mineral at the
fair. There ia also another view
point: A first-class, mineral depart
merit showing Wallowa county's re
sources in that particular, might
prove the means of presenting to
large capital ,the Invitation to come
Into thia district and open some, of
our prospects and)- convert them
into mines. At least that possibil
ity' Is contingent Right in the
heart of a mineral, district Knter,.
prise would be nsglectlng an oppor
tunity by neglecting such a display
of her minerals as would attraot the
favorable attention of any mine In
vestor who might attend the fair
The fair association la exerting ev-
rv effort to get claim owners to ex
hibit, and It Is to the material ad
vantage of such owners to aid in
the effort by responding with, the
be3t ore on the dumps.
