AS IT STANDS.
A Letter From the Secretary of the In
terior. There are many lovers and devo
tees of the rod and reel in thena
who are very much discommoded
in the pursuit of their favorite
sport, by being prohibited from
fishing in the Umatilla river on
the reservatlan conceded to b
one of the finest trout streams in
Oregon. v" ' '
There are a . number of fishing
cranks in this city who have writ
ten Agent Harper for permits grant
ing them permission to fish and
hunt on the reservation, and he
has referred them to the Secretary
of Interior. But from the follow
ing it would appear useless to do
'so.
M. S.Hanckel, government guag
eratthe Weston distillery,' wrote
agent Harper for a permit, and the
agent forwarded Mr. Hanckel's re
quest on to the Secretary of Inter
ior at Washington. The Secretary
in answering the agent says:
"In reply you will inform Mr.
Ha.ckle that this office cannot
grant him the desired permission,
for the reason that hunting in the
Indian country is prohibited by
sec. 2137 of the Revised Statutes,"
etc.
While fishing is not mentioned
in the above extract from the Sec
retary's reply, it is generally con
ceded that if hunting was prohib
ited in Indian country, fishing is
also.. . ,U i 'L w
ALARMING SITUATION.
Squirrles Devouring Hundred of
Acres of Grain, says Mr. Killlan.
John L. Killian, of Vansycle
stated to the East Oregonian re
porter Sunday that the squirrel
problem has become one of grave
moment to the farmers of Umatilla
county. Mr. Killian says that one
who has not traveled over the fields
and observed the myrids ot ground
squirrels which are literally eating
the crop of the country, or of many
parts of it, has not an adequate
idea of the amount of damage be
ing done. Says Mr. Killian: . '." "
"The situation is desperate in
deed.' I would hesitate to sound
such a note of alarm, but, under
the circumstances, it is the duty of
every one who knows the fact to
speak, arid speak emphatically.
Imagine the situation the worst
you can, and you will not form an
exaggerated idea of the havoc be
ing played in our wheat fields. I
believe that I am in a position to
know, and I have no fear of over
stating the facts.
"The squirrels travel in enorm
ous colonies and make clean sweeps
as they pass along. I would not
give three coppers for a piece of
wheat they have worked in for a
day or two.
"Some of our fatmers are putting
forth every effort to stamp them
out, but owing to the fact that many
show no disposition to resist the
ravages of the pests and that a
'large area has been deserted by
farmers, their efforts are practical
ly unavailing. Louis Anderson,
one of the heaviest wheat growers
in the county, is working early and
late and making a noble effort to
save his crop, but they are defying
his attempts and fairly devouring
his broad acreage of grain. I have
done my best to chock them, but
am compelled to see my efforts
come to naught.
"I want to say to the business
public of Pendleton and other coun
ty town, that immediate action
TiiUBt be taken. Delay means ruin
to crop prospects in ranny parts of
the county. . I am inclined to fav
or the county court offering a boun
ty for squirrels and setting a lot of
people to work of exterminating
the animals. The bounty, I be
lieve, will be more effectual than
the purchase and distribution by
the county of squirrel poison,
though it might be well for the
county court to furnish the poison
and hire roliablo men to scatter it
and do the poisoning themselves.
If free poison is offered, there ml
be dozens of persons who will neg
lect to put it out.
"The effort must be kept up un
til there is no trace of the army of
squirrels in the country. Last
February, I had cleaned them out.
Today, in the same places are le
gions of them, and they are conquer
ing legions, too, which are threat
ening defeat and financial disaster
to many hard working farmers who
are powerless unless united action
be taken." ,

Leador: A Weston man who
visited Milton recently wants to
know if the Eagle is asleep. He
thinks that it has ample right to
scream over the condition of Mil

Your Physical Condition. -Needs
attention at this time. If
you are tired, weak and nervous,
it is clear that your blood is im-
Eure, and without doubt there has
een too much over-work or strain
on brain or body. . The course of
treatment for such a condition is
plain and simple. The blood must
first be purified so that the nervous
system, and in fact all the organs
will be fed upon pure blood. In
telligent people without number
have testified that the best blood
purifier and nerve tonic is Hood's
Sarsaparilla.
DON'T STOP TOBACCO.
How to Cure Yourself While Using It.
The tobacco habit grows on a
man until his nervous system is
seriously affected, impairing health,
comfort and happiness. To quit
suddenly is too severe a, shock to
the system, as tobacco, to an invet
erate user becomes a stimulant
that his system continually craves.
Baco-Curo is a scientific cure for
the tobacco habit, in all its forms,
carefully compounded after the
formula of an eminent Berlin phy
sician who has used it in his pri
vate practice since 1872, without a
failure, purely. vegetable and guar
anteed perfectly harmless. You
can use all the tobacco you want,
while taking Baco Curo, it will no
tify you when to stop. We give a
written guarantee to permanently
cure any case with three boxes,or re
fund the money with 10 per - cent.
Interest. Baco-Curo is not a sub
stitute, but a scientific cure, that
cures without the aid of the will
f ower and with no inconvenience,
t leaves the system as pure, free
from nicotine as the day you took
your first chew or smoke. Sold by
all druggist, with our ironclad guan
tee, at $1.00 per box, three boxes,
