Personal selfishness should not

Suppose the railway develop
ment that wont forward up thero
had been made in this section,
docs not every sano man know
that Harney County would bo
tho Whitman County of Oregon?
Ls it not a certainty that in place
of seven or eight thousand people
in the Harney and Malheur Val
leys we would havo eight, ten or
a dozen times that many? To
deny this is to say that these
lands aro not as good as tho lands
of Eastern Washington, and
everybody that knows nnvthinnr
about the subject knows there
are more acres and belter acres
of wheat land here than in tho

The teachers of tho Public
School have decided upon tho
following pictures to ho purchas
ed with the fund accruing from
tho school entertainment.
"The Fighting Temorairo (in
colors) by Turner.
'Stratfou! on Avon" (an allo
type).
"The kike" by CoraL
"St Anthony of Padua" by
Murillo.
"Sir Galahad" by Watts.
"ThoShepordoss" by Lo Rolle,
'Tho Angels Heads" by Raph
ael. "Tho FightingTemerairo" will
bo the most expensive picture,
costing about twenty-five dollars.
Tho subject is historical and tho
treatment practical, Tho old
ship after its many victories is
being towed to its last resting
place at tho closo of day. Tho
(laming sunset in the background
reddens the waters and typifies
both the brilliant career of the
ship and its passing out of ser
vice.
"Slaford on Avon" is a photo
graph of the town where Shakes
peare was boru with tho winding
Avon river in tho foreground.
Tho other five pictures nre re
productions of some of tin most
famous paintings in tho world
and will average in cost fifteen
dollnrs each. It was thought
best to purchase imported car
bons instead of tho cheaper
American carbons. Tho import
ed are direct reproduction from
the original paintings and aro
hotter pictures than the Ameri
can carbons which aro reproduc
tions of the imported carbons.
Tho best wili bo nono too good
for tho new Bchool building.
The pictures will bo ready to
ship in from Portland tho last of
Juno or tho early part of July,
three or more of tho teachers will
seo them before they aro accept
ed from tho picture dcnlors.
It is hoped that tho collection
will not be placed in the old
school building ns tho roof leaks
and tho dust is heavy. Tho risk
of muring tho pictures would bo
great. Tho teachers havo asked
the school board lo find a suita
ble place to exhibit them until
tho new building is ready.
