No very definite news was ob tainable from the republican con vention at Chicago at the time of going to press today. It is re ported by telephone that Col. Roosevelt has withdrawn from the convention but few of his followers went with him. From the same source comes the sug gestion of a third party with Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson, formal action to bo taken in this respect during August at a big mass meeting. Indications are that a compro mise candidate will be nominat ed by the regular convention, although it seems President Taft has sufficient strength to get the nomination. Should a dark horse be nominated it is suggest that Gov. Hadley of Missouri will likely be the compromise. A telegram to Baker since noon nas Drougnt no reply, so it is taken for 'gran ted that no nomi nation had been made up to that time. ADDITIONAL LOCALS. C. T. Miller and family were in from the ranch this week. Chas. Comegys and family are in from the country homo, mak ing the trip in the auto, W. F. Harris, formerly princi pal of the public school in this city, was in from his homo near Waverly Wednesday. M. Schenk, of the firm of Schcnk & Williams, has return ed from an extended visit to Portland where he was on busi ness and to take in the Rose fes tival. He returned by way of Ontario. J. C. Freeman is here from California looking after his in terests. Ho has a fine place in the Warm Springs section. Mr. Freeman has many old time incnd8 here who are always pleased to greet him on his oc casional visits. Winona wagons are the best, For sale by Harriman Mercantile Co. Wm. Harvey, the Lakeview horse buyer, is in this section making purchases. Dry slab and pine wood $G.50 and $.00 per cord, cash only at Lumber yard. With prospect for two railroads into the Harney Country.nnother political party started by "Teddy" and Wilson, finociops, more pigs, more people, why there is something surely doing these days. F. Crowley was up from his home near the lake last Wednes day. He is very much concern ed as ho says it will be necessary for him to move his house or have the railroad survey chang ed, as his homo is right in the way. I. H. Holland and wife, who accompanied by Miss Helen Pur ington went to Ontario last week to meet their daughter. Miss Gladys, returned the first-of this week. Miss Gladys is enjoying good health and glad to be among her friends and former school mates for the vacation period. The new homestead law recent ly enacted has been received by the local land office and copies are being mailed to all home steaders that are effected by the act. There arc many of these in this land district and no doubt most of them will take advant age of it. However, it is elective with them whether they do so or make proof under the old law. An assertion was made at the National Livestock Exchange held in Portland the first Tf this week that at tho rate herds of cattle are diminishing it will not be long before they becomo ex tinct unless measures were taken to put a check to present practi ces of slaughtering. A federal law was suggested Drohibitincr the slaughter of heifers until they have attained tho ago of at least three years. SECURING RIGHT OF WAY FOR RAILROAD (Continued from page 1.) pensntion for tho , rights and dtatcs tho railroad is not asking for any donations. So far tlioso who have closed contracts with him havo boon very reasonable, too, asking what they considered tho land worth. Even though Mr. Harris offers no encouragement respecting im mediate construction work in this Valley his presence is never theless encouraging and shows conclusively that there Is not go ing to be imy great delay. A largo number of places have been filed upon sinco the survey that will rc(tiiro same attention. However, tho maps of the sur vey havo already boon filed and approved by tho Intorior Depart ment, thus giving tho railroad a prior right. Those familiar with tho terri tory know that tho grading work in tho vicinity of tho lakes must bo dono during tho Into summer and fall, therefore it is not un reasonable to suggest that this work will begin during this sea son and possibly bo completed, as it is understood tho contract calls for tho completion of tho road npxt year. Such being tho case we may expect contractors in that vicinity during this sea son. RAILROAD WORK IS PROGRESSING RAPIDLY retained for domestic use, it wbb necessary In 1910 to retain nearly (550,000,000 bushels. "Theso facts, as takon from official rccordB, aro not only In teresting, but aro exceedingly instructive and significant. They Indicate with tho greatest force that ho present high prices, of which many people aro bo apt to complain, will not fall but will rise unless every force in this country joins in tho movement to increase the farm production and to tmiko agriculture a great and batter industry. It Is a very serious problem and all tho mora difficult when it Is realized that it has to bo faced at a time when tho raw land is practically gone, and when wo can no longer de pend on tremendous additions to crops as the result of tho break ing up of now crop-raisings areas. ADDITIONAL LOCALS. In order to meet tho price of Flour hauled In from tho R. R. tho Burns Flour Milling Co havo reduced flour to $7.00 bbl. J. R. Stlnson, tho Prlnovillc ropresontntlvo of tho Oregon & Western Colonization Co., came in the first of tho week accom panied by Mrs. Stlnson and a lady friend. Thov spent several days hero with Frank Johnson, tho local representative of the concern, leaving on their return Thursday nftcrnoon. Mr. Stln son is well pleased to seo tho ex cellent cropprospecta in this sec tion. Ho will mako rogular vis its hero from this timo on, at least twice each month. DRESS GINGHAMS ssxa (Continued from pago 1.) by January 1. It isquito evident tho road will bo pushed to com pletion as rapidly as can bo, es pecially since it is practically settled that tho Hill line is to bo extended in from the west at once. The Vale and Ontario papers report many men and outfits coming in each day and going out on tho work. At present there are at least a thousand men and teams on tho grading work, with as large forces as can be worked conveniently on tho tun nells. This railroad activity has caus ed a greater interest in the in- tenor country and local real es tate men and the Commercial Club are receiving much inquiry about land and other investments. Great numbers of people are headed for this section for the purpose of making investments and homes. Wc aro going to witness much development as a result of the railroad activity and it will be only a short time when the old timer will sec changes that he little dreamed of.

B, McConnell, Mrs. Frank Davey and Mrs. Archie McGowan. Tho ladies aro sparing no pains to make it pleasant for visitors and will keep open house until 0 o'clock tonight. manufacturing capital two-fold in spite of the three years of war. The period embracing tho Civil War showed a marked de gree in the tendency of tho peo ple to expand and occupy new farming territory, but since 1870 the expansion of the farm acre age has been enormous. "In tho 20 years ending 1910 the population of the United States increased about one-third. During tho same period tho total of unappropriated and unreserved lands embraced in the public do main fell from 55 to 41 per cent In other words, 50 percent of all the public domains in tho United States has already gone under private ownership. "To havo increased tho popu lation of tho country by one-third in 20 years flatters our National pride, but at tho same timo it presents a tremenduous problem. If we continue to grow at the present rate wo shall havo 200, 000,000 people in tho United States in 1950 and tho demand for tho products of tho farm, In order that tho peoplo may live, will have considerably more than doubled. "On tho authority of tho Pre sident of tho United States, it will be necessary, in order to meet tho demands of this contin ually growing population, toin-J crease tho product of each aero of tilled land by ono per cent a year. "What tho effect of paying less attention to farming, in relation to tho tremendous growth in population has been, becomes ap parent when we realize that while in 1900 it was necessary to retain only 1,805,000,000 bushels of corn for domestic consump tion, the domestic demand has arisen in 1910 to 2,734,000,000.
