Postoffice Department Has Hitherto
Slighted O ur Naval Heroes.
Washington, May 16.— It is probable
that the likeness of John Paul Jones,
of deathless fame in the annals of naval
warfare, w ill appear upon one of the
nest series of United States postage
stamps.
A naval officer recently called atten­
tion to the fact that the United States
navy, whose achievements present an
unbroken line of victories, has had but
scant recognition at the hands of the
postoffice department so far as honoring
eminent naval officers of the United
States upon our postal issues is con­
cerned.
The naval officer is correct. U p to
1908 only one representative of the
navy had evsr been recognised for a
place upon a United States postage
stamp— Commodore Perry of Lake Erie
fame— and his position was so obscure
that not one person in 10,000 ever saw
his likeness upon a stamp. Psrry was
in 1870 assigned to the 90-cent stamp,
and there he remained until 1908,
when, instead of making a new place
for Adm iral Farragut, who was voted
Into tho charmed postal circle, the
poatoffice authorities retired Perry and
Faragut took his place.
The new series of stamps for the
Philippines, now in process of printing
in Washington, depicts Adm iral Samp­
son on the 16-centavo (8 cents) stamp,
but upon United States stamps until
1902 Perry reigned supreme. __
On the other hand the army has re­
ceived numerous honors from the au­
thorities who determine what (aces
shall adorn our postage stamps. Be­
ginning with General Washington, the
list includes General Winfield 8oott,
General Zachary Taylor, General Gar­
field, General Grant, General Sherman,
General Harrison, Major McKinley
General Sheridan’s likeness is repre­
sented on the reply postal card.

Klamath Falls.— Directors of the
Klamath Water-Uaera' Association at
a recent meeting instructed their at­
torney to proceed to enforce the collec­
tion of the assessment from tho delin­

notice that such action would be taken
if payments wero not made at once.
About 120 of the 620 members ara de­
linquent, averaging about $7 for each
stockholder thus derelict, and the asso­

Books of the association elosed since

after be obliged to pay an enrollment

Pendleton— Sheepmen of Umatilla
county have made vigorous protest
against the notion of foreet reserve offi­
cials st W alla W alla in standing by the
allotment recently made of the range in
Wen aha reserve. A remonstrance from
Umatilla county has been filed with
D. B. Shelter, forest reserve superin­
tendent at W alla Walla.
Facts and figures are given in sup­
port of the contention of Oregon stock-
men. These in substance are as fel­
lows: O f the total land in the reserve,
700,000 acres, more than half lies in
Oregon. Only 36,857 Oregon sheep were
admitted to the reserve, whereas 123,000
Washington sheep were allowed. To add
insult to injury, 58,109 of the Washing­
ton sheep were allotted to range in this
state. No Oregon sheep were allotted
range in Washington. In scaling the
number to be allowed in the reserve the
Oregon men were eut down 50 per cent,
while the Washington men were allowed
practically all they asked.
It is held by the Oregog stockmen
that forest reserve rules were violated
by the manner in which the reserve was
allotted. The rules specifically provide
that in allotment of range in reserve,
stockmen of the state in which the re
serve is located shall be given prefer­
ence.
Accompanying the general remon­
strance were affidavits from twenty
sheepmen of this county, setting forth
claims to land in the reserve allotted
to Washington men. ..

The liquor question was again dis­

haa been proposed that tha charter of
the city be amended so that tha license,
which has heretofore been $100, be
raised to $600. Before the fire there
were 4,000 aaloona in thia city, and it
ia believed that the increased license
w ill redace this number to 1,000, with­

A proclamation haa been leaned by
Mayor Schrnits directing that all refug-

one to be located in the Potrero, in tbe
south side of tbe city, and tbe ether at
Golden Gate Park.
