Thra Month)., 1.00 .1,00 IULIAM BTKtt Maaar Malheur county is jubilant over tho prospects of tho govorn mcnt taking up tho irrigation project over there. Secretary Ballinger was there last week and said he'd see about it Our streets and roads leading into town should bo given parti cular attention. Tho crosswalks aro being repared at present, but not all aro being replaced in tho best manner. After listening to Dr. Withy combe and other speakers of tho farmers' institute it would appear that what wo lack in this coun try is not climate or soil, but actual fanning to mnko it pro duce as it should. Real estate has been moving to some extent this week and at considerable advances. One place was bought on Monday for $5,000 and has since been sold for $7,000. Much of tho land recent ly thrown open has been entered in various ways and people aro still coming in. According to Dr. Withycombo the system of dry farming i3 really a simple matter that re quires only common sense and a little Btudy of local conditions. If that is right let us not have tho inteligence of our farmers challenged but really make a suc cess of the work. The yield of grain in certain portions of this county is certain ly phenominal cousidering that wo have not had quito one-half the average precipitation this season. When farmers learn that it is necessary to put in crops right and proper methods used to conserve moisture wo will have greater success. destined to sizzle in Sulphur. Into the blue domo of heavon ho looks, nee the reflection of him- Bolf and knocks tho Btaro. His own image ho sees In tho crystal waters, and ho knocks nttturo for supplying bum water. In tho shimmer of tho moonbeam ho sees hid own solf-despiscd form Bllhouottcd against tho mightiest works of man and hp condemns all. Whorovor ho moves ho leaves a slimey trail Hko tho path of a Bnail, and when at last ho reaches his eternal bed of brim stone, above nil of tho din of tho walling and gnashing of teeth will bo heard tho clarion knock of tho biped who will not oven it i t nny good in ins hk uoing 800 toasted on tho prong of a tino pithfork.-Kngle. ono Col. E. Hofer, who is ono Cf tho biggest boosters in Oregon, has been accused of being a can didate for govornorbut ho comes out emphatically and says "nay!" He wants to bo freo to advocate such reforms as ho considers im portant and doesn't want to bo tied up. Ho says: "Nowspaper men in only a few raro instances havo been chosen for that oflko. If a newspaper is good for any thing it stops on tho toes of so many people that an editor is not nvailablo for ofuco seeking. Tho Republican party does not owo tho editor of tho Capital Journal any such high honor as a nomina tion for any stnto ofllce. He pre fers his independence of thought and action to any prize in tho way of a public ofllce. "Furthermore, any man who becomes an avowed candidate for an official nomination at the hands of his party should bo pre pared to support tho nominee of tho party, and for tho ofllce of Governor there may bo a person nnmed wo would not want to support under nny circumstances. Hence, we shall seek no nomina tion for the oflko at tho hands of any party. Tho next Governor of Oregon should havo no bridle in his mouth from any party, nor have his hands tied by any as sembly or faction." DUVINQ LAMBS. The suggestion that Burns take up tho matter of a public park and the proposed opening and grading of North Main street aro matters that should receivo ser ious consideration and imediate attention. Both improvements are certainly desired. Tho for mer should bo provided for be fore it is too late to secure suita ble site. The latter proposition may depend largely upon the at titude of the property owners along the line of tho proposed improvement, but tho probable cost should bo ascertained and then ways and means may be provided. Tho Harriman people now ad mit that J. J. Hill is backing tho Porter Bros, who are putting up a fight for a railroad up tho Des chutes canyon and that Mr. Hill is evidently in the race for Ore gon territory. Such boing the case it is a foregone conclusion that Central Oregon will have two railroads and that thcro will be no "monkey business" in pushing the work. Mr. Hill is not a bluffer. It is reported ho has purchased the P. I. N. from Woiser north and this will be a link of his lines through this dis trict With Hill on both sides of us we may rest assured he will connect the lines when such a magnificent territory lies between. M. Murry and W. B. Barrett arrived from Heppner Tuesday. Mr. Murray is buying Iambs in Grant county and states that if it is possible ho would like to get about 40,000. Up to this time he has purchased in Grant county 16,000 and expects to increase his purchase in this county to 20,000. He has been paying $3 for this spring lambs. These lambs are being purchased for Montana shipment and will bo consigned to J. B. Long & Co., of Montana. They aro purch ased for September shipment and will bo shipped by way of Austin as it is claimed that tho trail to the railroad is better in this direction than any other. BluoMt. Eagle.

Young, as he expressed it at tho farmers' institute, of trying ia drown his ranch out for 23 years before he finally realized that drainage was what it wnnjed instead, is tho situation of Ja large number of our peoplo along the river. Men who havo made a study of such methods aro pronounced and positive in their assertions that a large amount of our natural meadow lands aro deteriorating from being drown ed in water. The sooner this Is realized and the water taken off and allowed to be used on land that needs more Irrigation tho sooner a larger acreage of this valley will be pnt under profit able cultivation. Tne knocker fa knocked by his own knocking. "Knock and it shall be opened unto you" was not spoken of the knocker, Tbie was meant for the seeker. Ther never was a kneeker who was a seeker, the seekers don't knock. A knocker is a erose betawen a failure and a crime. He 1mm no hope in himself, nor faith in any body else. He is a moral wart All doubt that James J. Hill is tho power behind tho anti-Harri-man invasion of Central Oregon may bo brushed aside. Too many developments bearing directly upon tho gigantic strugglo now being waged for this rich empire indicate this to admit of question, says the Telegram. The Oregon Trunk people are planning to bridge the Columbia to connection with tho North Bank road. This has leaked out today. Porter Brothers, who own tho Oregon trunk rights have been in conference today with Attorney James B. Kerr, the Hill lawyer who whipped and routed Harriman.s legal lights at every issue whon the O. R. & N. was trying to block the Hill line down tho Washington Bhoro of tho Columbia. It is known that Mr. Kerr has been engaged for some timo picking up the odds and ends of tho situation that may result in litigation between the Dcschatcs River road and tho Oregon Trunk, and that ono of tho purposes of today's confer ence between tho Porters and Lawyer Kerr Ib to docldo upon a course of action that shall fur ther harass the Harriman forces. John P. Stevens, the confiden tial representative of James Jy Hill, who had until a fow days ago been hero for a month study ing tho Central Oregon situation, was a frequent conferee with At tprnoy Kerr about matters per taining to railroad building into the Jong-neglected territory.
