Cheney OITcra Site for Cut ho. Jic InstituHon ntr)tof IMlotttutte Sisters Will Come Soon for InspecUon Hcnd Im Praised. Membcrs of the Order of Sisters it Charity of Nnxnreth will nrrlvo In Bnd within tho next two weeks to aftond to further details concerning the erection here of a hospital and a. ademy ns announced In The Bllo tln last week. This announcement, rfogother with one that W. D. Cheney had offered a site for tho hospital, was raado at a dinner at tho Emblem "lub on Thursday, attended by Dish cp O'ltellly of Baker City, Father Butler of Hormlston, Father Sharkey of Bond, and prominent Catholic lay men of this vicinity. Tho site which Mr. Cheney has of fered lies near the foot or Pilot Butte and consists of slightly less than live and a half acres. It commands a lino vlow of tho western mountains and Is only a fow minutes' ride by auto from tho center of the town. Mr. Cheney, -who was the llrst speak er of tho evening, said that n deed would bo ready for tho Slstors when ever It was desired. Mr. Cheney was followed by Fath er Butler, who roferred to Bend as tho Spokane of Oregon, nnd said 'hat the coming hospital would be tho e ual to anything In tho Northwest. Bishop O'ltellly, who was the lust speakor, llrst mentioned tho thirteen jears In which ho had lived In Bast rn Oregon, and the scomlngly Im possible conditions of size of terri tory and Bparsoncss of population which hnd confronted him. To n friend who urged him not to despair, nd for tho honor of the prelacy, not to resign, ho answered that ho did I ot como from that kind of Irish, nnd he was now glad to boo condi tions wero changing. Bond, he Bald, a friend had recent .y told him, was destined to become j County Division 1 Election dny is about one month away. The ques tion of county division is to be ncted upon soon. The story of what has gone before is pretty generally known. Two years ago Prineville and Redmond, in league, defeated division by a narrow margin. Feeling that re moval was better than division, if the east side people would not cooperate, a movement was the county seat. Then Prineville leaders, all substantial men, came for ward with .ssuranecs that if division, and not removal, was placed on the ballot, they would support it. Securing the necessary thirty five per cent vote in the old county would he simple, said they. Not without some mistrust, bred from past experiences, such assurances finally prevailed. Much .support hereabout was switched from removal to division. It is now whispered, and not too discreetly, that when the show-down comes there may not be the promised sup port for division in the old county. Content because the danger of losing the county seat has seemingly been remov ed for the time, it is possible there may be broken pledges on the east side. We hope not and are not ready to be lieve so. But if Prineville does not make good this time, if she is not prepared to cooperate on a division along lines which have been made remarkably fair to her, she will be playing her last card. There is still a demand in this section to push the removal matter to completion at this election. We believe, however, that will not be undertaken seriously not at this election. For ourselves, we believe it best to make every effort to get division now. Give the east side a chance to make good. If they will produce their thirty five per cent favorble vote, let us unite in getting out our sixty five per cent vote over here. We should get to work on that at once. And if division loses, there will be another election in 1918. County seat removal could carry now. Two years lienee it will carry even more certainly. And if the east side folks aren't willing to meet us halt way, if they won't let us haw the county seat we are entitled to now and keep their own, at the next election there will be no other course open to the west side but to clean the matter up once and for all by establishing the county seat over here on the rail road, in the actual center of business, population, and taxa ble property of Crook county. he second city of Oregon, and ho was much gratified to observe Its pros-' cnt growth nnd prosperity. His llrst I utid the chnngo which had taken' timi-a in a iew jears was remnritauio. Bishop O'ltellly paid a high trib ute to tho Sisters who will establish tho hospital hero, praising their Mil nnd attainments In bdlh edu cational and nursing ability. Both the hospital and the school will be open to all without reference to creed. Letters regretting their Inability to attend the dinner were read from President Farrell of the O.-W. It. & N., President Oilman of tho S. P. & S., WMIlam McMurray and Itobert H. Strahorn. LAW NDT PASSED Grazing Homestead HIM Still Dotaie Congress. (The Oregnlan) LA ORAXDU, Or., Sept. 28 (Spe clal.) Representative N. J. Slnnott of Tho Dalles, who passed through La Grande today on his way homo from Washington, Is confident that tho G40-acre provision for grn2lng homo steads will be adopted as soon ns congress reconvenes. Simultaneously with Mr. Slnnott's return, the local land otllcc today rectified n previous ly announced opinion that the new homestead law had been passed and approved. "The very Important measure camo back to the house, which passed It originally, bringing amendments which wero not acted on before ad journment, but will bo as soon as congress reconvenes," explained Mr. Slnnott. Consequently (MO-acro homesteads for grazing purposes uro not avail ablo now. As to tho presidential outlook, Mr. Slnnott Is confident of Republi can success and declares Mr. Hughes Is gaining strength and power every day of his tour.

Advbte Stocking Knuill l'n nas With I 'civ Sheep. "There Is not a cloud In the sky for tho Central Oregon Bheepnicn," said Alex Mackintosh, while In town last Saturday afternoon. "Prices have never been so good as they have been during tho last season, the de mand hns been greater than sheep men havo been able to supply, nnd the prospects for unother great year for sheepmen Is certain." Const markets are calling every day for mutton lambs at prices which rank higher than has ever been known In the West. Mutton lambs that two years ago brought $2,50 to $3.50 per head aro now bringing $5 and $5.2f, and no questions are be ing asked. Milter & Lux of San Francisco recently purchased 13,000 head of mutton Inmbs which brought sheepmen no less than $5 per hoad. Before the next two monthB pass, more than 30,000 mutton feeders wilt be disposed of from Central Oregon. Already the sheepmen are beginning to look out for the big demand which they think Is Inevitable for next year. Anu'ili'iiii Wool Wanted. "I look for a steady demand for mutton and wool, at least for the next two years. The war will be watched keenly by sheepmen all over tho country. The war's end will have a great effect upon tho sheep Industry," said Mr. Mackintosh. "Closo followers ot ttic business be lieve that when the war closes a greater demand w 111 be experienced for American wool than now. Wc sheepmen seo In the end of tho. war an attempt upon the part or foreign nations, and in particular Kngland nnd Belgium, to recoup the looses they havo suffered to their wool manufacturing establishments dur Ing the last two years. Wo expect to Bee them entering the American mar ket for the purchase of all tho wool thoy can buy to start their factories going as they were previous to the wur. Sheen Aie on Decrease. "It Is unquestionably true In the West that the number of sheep are on the decrease. There are fewer sheop In tho country today than tboro were llvo jears ago. The grout do inu ml for mutton feeders nnd tho ex tremely high prices paid for them have been attractive to sheepmen The sheepmen for these reasons have not been replenishing their herds with fresh stock and most of the herds for breeding purposes are from three to seven ears old." When asked what ho thought would bring up the number or sheep to the standing or a few years ago, Mr. Mackintosh said' Few bheep Pay Well. '"The farmers on small Irrigated tracts of land In this part of the state should get Interested In the purchuso of small bauds of sheop for their places It Is Unquestionably truo they will paj It has boon proved in this beet Ion that a small band of sheep will be profitable Last ear I found that n full grown ewe brought me $7.5o. in a mutton lamb and tho wool sho produiud This Is Interest on $75 I believe It fair to estimate, under normal con ditions, that the nverago ewe will bring Interest on $65 Pasture lambs bring a fancier prlco on Portland and other coast markets than do range lambs. Sheep now returning from the ranges aro In fluo condition for the winter Grans has been exceptional ly good and the sheep should come out of tho winter In excellent condi tion, Mr. Mackintosh believes, With tho splendid crops that have been harvested no scarcity of feed Is ex pected this winter. COYOTE HAS VALUE War Maker Fur of Despised Animal Worth Money. (Tocoma News) The coyote, once despised pariah of the waste places, suddenly has taken on an unusual and Important value In the estimation of hunters. This Ib entirely due to the great war In Ku rope. Soldiers must be protected against tho rigors of winter and coy ote furs aid. Before the war tbo coyote was hunted primarily because It was de structive to domestic animals Its depredations among sheep are a con stant source of resentment against It on the part of shoepherders Its pelt then brought only a dollar or two Now tho fur Is worth consider ably more than the entire sheep be destroyed As high Us 18 and $10 Is being paid for a good skin This may prove a long step toward the ultimate extermination ot the animal. 1 E 5 ON FOR E IS LUST LAKE DEVELOPMENT PROMISED Llsee of Summer and Atieit Uikes Has I'litll December lit to Get Pro- Ject I'lidcr Way Wilt Le Motor TmcK.s Now.

Governor Wlthycombe was absent. The changes desired In tho lease rolnte to the payment of royalties, but du not change tho amount nnd make more specttlc matters relating to tho erecting ot a plant on tho lake or Its meander Hue. It was explained that nn experi mental plant would be built first, and Inter a manufacturing plant would be erected. Whether It would cost $r.00,000 or $ 1.500.000 would depend on the rupldlty wltti which transportation from tho luke Is ar- raliitrd. Tho board referred the proposed changes In tho lease to tho attorney general. Mooro Optimistic. "I am positive now that wo arp going tin with the work." suld Mr. Moore.

"The survey of tho Strahorn rail road runs between tho two lukea at n point about three nnd ono-hnlf miles distant from our probable locu tion on each lake I'ntll such time as this road Is built It will be neces sary for us to use motor trucks to get our product to the mnrkets."
