Attorney S. F, Wilson of this oily,
annonnoea bis candidacy for Congress
from this district. While in Portland
last week, Mr. Wilson was interview
ed by the Oregon Journal, and is
quoted assaying;
"I expect to make a vigorona cam
paign, and it will be somewhat differ
ent from others in this state. I shall
arrange for meetings in different parts
of the distriot where an educational
disonssion , can be bad of politioal
topios. Prominent progressives will be
incited to speak at these meetings and
give informing talks, '
"Among the matters wbioh I expect
to make issues In my campaign are
the development of irrigation on the
Umatilla reservation and adjoining
lands and the question of tonnage tolls
through the Panama canal.
"The Umatilla Indiana have about
$300,000 in a fund derived from the
sale of tribal lands. - A large part of
the reservation can be iirigated from
Pine creek and greatly inorensed in
value. Adjoining the reservation are
other lands that may be irrigated
from the same sonroe. I shall advof
oste the adoption of a plan to use par
of the tribal funds along with an - ap
portionment from the government re
clamation funds for the irrigation of
this land, and will work to that , end
if I go to congress.
: "The question of tolls through . the
Panama oanal is one that calls for
early - aotion, The railroads would
like to have heavy tolls to prevent
effective competition by water, and
congress should see to it that the ben
efit of the canal is not lost to the
people. i
' "I am a progressive in national pol
tics. I believe in presidential primar
ies and election of United States eenr
ators by the people. I believe in up
holding the established progressive
laws of Oregon. -
j "I am inolined to believe the pres.
ent administration is making a mistake
l in its attacks on 'big business' under
' flin Showman law ' f!ilinn1 DaasahbH
more nearly expresses my ideas. The
big corporations should be controlled
by government regulation, and not
made the subleot of constant attack in
the courts. It will be too big a task
tocttempto regulate all these cor
porations by suits in the courts."
: Grading on Third Street
Third street, between Current and
the bridge, at the City Park, hai been
graded this week. The improvement
will have the effeot of, taking care of
the surplus water wbioh is turned
from Main street at the intersection
of Fifth during spring and summer
freshets. ' Heretofore the water thus
diverted has submerged residence
property in the south part of town.
Hereafter the water will find Its way
to Wild Horse oreek, along the east
side of Third street where the new
grading has been completed.
y Freewater Ticket Named,
The caucus of the citizens at Free
water was the biggest in the h'story
of the town, and the "dry" foroes
controlled the situation. The follow
ing candidates were nominated: May
or, Dr. J. E. Haynie; reoorder, Meryle
Hadley: treasurer Will Hall; council
men,, John Crimmins, I. Taylor, and
Howard Mansfield, the latter receiv
ing every vote.
Closing Out His Store.
Matt Mosgrove is closing out his
meroautile business in Milton, and
will probably dnvote his entire atten
tion to his store and business interests
in this city. His son is attending
sobool at Berkeley, California, and
Mr. Mosgrove will spend a portion of
fail 'time there.

HEART FAILURE
TAKES STRANGER
FRANK MARIAN EXPIRES AT
PAUL BUSHMAN HOME.
Was French Canadian and
was Known to Travel Under
Name of Frank Burke.
HE FINDS ANEW DEFINITION
Walla Walla Means "Pastures," or
"Leaf of the Sunflower,"
A new, and it is thought to be a
true definition of the Indian name
"Walla Walla" has been discovered
by Major Lee Moorbouse, former In:
dianagontfor the, Umatilla Indians
and a man perhaps more familiar with
the early history of the states of the
northwest than any other living agent.
Major Moorhouse, in his present
duties as claim agent for the Indian
nation ' in tbeir effortB to substantiate
certaiu . claims against the United
States government and ruuning baok
to the year 1856, discovered in cer
tain Indian records the meaning of
the word Walla Walla. Later inter
views held with certain chiefs of the
Umatilla nation leads him to believe
that the word should have been orig
in a.lly interpreted "pastures" and fur
ther investigations he find that in tbe
looal sense tbe word pastures means
"land of the sunflower."
Further proof of this meaning is
found in tbe faot that the Walla Wal
la valley was especially prolific of tbe
sunflower, in its wild state and that
the red men took tbe name for that
faot.
The name Walla Walla has for
many years been interpreted to mean
"tbe meeting of waters," but the new
discovery of Major Moorbouse lends
truth to tbe belief that tbe real word
has been wrongly interpreted for many
years.
Further disonssion of tbe meaning
of Indian words on the part of Major
Moorbouse brought up tbe question
of "Wallula" whioh has been gener
ally understood to mean either "the
land of the blowing wind" or "near
tbe waters." In the opinion of Major
Moorhouse. basing bis find on-tbe new
knowledge already gained, this defini
tion is entirely wrong, and he has
promised to use bis best efforts among
tbe older Indians of tbe Umatilla
tribe to And out tbe original meaning
of tbe word.' ,
Snow in Mountains.
Tbe mountains of Eastern Oregon
are covered with a depth of snow un
precedented at snob an early date.
Several feet cover tbe mountains sur

portation to mining camps is already
badly hindered by tbe conditions. Tbe
snow fall Inst week put an end to work
on tbe new city pipe line and along
tbe line of tbe Sompter Valley heavy
falls have already set in. Sinoe tbe
heavy norm several days ago it has
thawed somewhat and tbe irrigation
and other reservoirs are fuller tLau
usual at this season of tbe year.

A stranger who arrived in tbe oity
this week from Gssada, died suddenly
of heart failure at the Paul Bushman
plaoe south of town Wednesday , even
ng. The man, who was going under
the name of Frank Burke, but whose
real name is said to have been Marian,
by French Canadians who knew him,
left town Wednesday afternoon in
oompany with Bushman.
Shortly after six. o'olook he beoame

A Portland saloou oard was found,
containing tbe words: "Let Frank
Burke hare room 80 any time he ap
plies for it," and signed Ernest Emler.
A hospital fee oard was also found,
and this too identified him as Frank
Burke. He was of Frenoh Canadian

To Restore Leather Bindings.
To restore the leather bindings of
books wash them first very lightly and
carefully with clean warm water in
which a tiny piece of soda has been
dissolved, in order to free the leather
from grease; then wash with clear wa
ter to remove the soda and dry. Dis
solve a bit of gam arable the size of a
small bean in a teaspoon ful of water
and. beat it up with a teaspoonful of
the white of nn egg. With a bit of
sponge go lightly over the leather with
this elntr nnd let it dry. Should
thff glnlr froth up on the leather, as it
Is very likely to do if there is much
tool work on tbe book, dab it until it
subsides with the pnlm of tho hand or
with the sponge squeezed as dry as
possible.

SPLENDID ATTRACTION COMING
Ricketts Concert Co., Second Number
of Meneley Lyceum Course.
No company of entertainers handled
by the Meneley Lyoeum Bureau,
wbioh is giving a series of five leoturea
and entertainments under the auspioea
ot the Athena Commercial Associa
tion, has given more general satisfao
tou than the Ricketts Concert oom
pany, whioh will present the Beoond
number of the series in this city on
Thursday evening, Deoembei 14.
No adverse oriticism ,ia heard rel
ative to tbia great family, of enter
tainers and wben they appear here it
is the purpose of the Commercial As
sociation to have one of the largest
audienet of the season to greet them.
With-this objeot in view, tiokets
for tbe entertainment have been placed
on sale at several of tbe stores and tbe
pupils ot tbe sohool will solioit sales
of tiokets. - v
This famous company consists of
two sisters and three brothers, all art

Rioketta and Miss Mrytle Rioketta
are flutist and violinist, respeotively.
Both are pianists.. Master Clyde Ri,ok
etts, Brat violinist, and George Riokt

TURKEYS ARE VERY SCARCE
Few Birds Now Raised on Farms in
This Vicinity and Prices High.
If reports are true, many Thanks
giving dinners will be minus turkey
this season, for tbe reason that the
farms of Eastern Oregon do not
raise tbe king of the festal board in
numbers produoed iu former years.'
The cause is not explained, but the
effeot is noticable in market quota
tions. The soaroity of turkeys in the
Willamette valley has caused the fowls
there to soar skyward in prioe, aud at
Oakland, tba home of the turkey,
the stock has been bargained by Cal
ifornia buyers early in the reason.
Time was when a band of turkeys
anged on Dearly every farm In the
Inland Empire, and the big-birds were
nearly as common as chickens. - The
sly ooyote iu those days was the only
pest to be guarded against in bringing
the flock to maturity and everybody
bad turkey for Thanksgiving and
Christmas dinner. ;
Of late years tbe farmer's wife has
gone out of tbe turkey business almost
entirely, tbe result being that tbe cold
storoage firms are relied upen to sup
ply tbe demand. . , i
Oregon's pnniopal supply this year
will come from the product shipped
from the Eastern and middle states. :
Tbe looal demand will be np to Irs
usual staudard and Athena people
will be supplied principally through
tbe looal meat market, tbe proprietors
of whioh will strive to secure the best
grade of stook possible.
Matter and Force.
There la no such thing as a loss ot
matter or force. Tho so called "con
servation" of matter and its forces
was demonstrated years ago by Joule
and other scentlsts. When, for In
stance, a thing "burns up," as we say,
the substances that give out tbe light
and heat are changed,' not destroyed.
Tho wood or whatever tho substance
happens to be becomes ashes and gas,
and if we could gather up all the prod
ucts of the burning we should find
that they had not lost a particle of
their weight and that the form of them
only was changed. Tho eternity, of
matter was a teaching of the old Oroeli
philosophers, or of some of them at
least, and tbe modern teaching of the
conservation or indestructibility of the
stuff of the universe would seem to
corroborate tho ancient idea. New
York American.
A Trail of Twisted Trees.
' All manner of devices have been env
ployed to mark a line of march, but It
Is thought that the most curious
method of "blazing the trail" is that
still to bo seen in Africa. In the
year 1880, after a fierce battle with
the Abysslnlans, the dervishes pur
sued tbeir foes as fur as tho lake dis
trict The mahdl's men had small
knowledge of geography and little to
pographical Intelligence. So the ad
vance party, In order to mark the
route for those who came after and
also to guide tbe force on (heir return
journey, twisted the saplings along tbe
way Into living knots. The war end
ed, but the tied up trees grew and
flourished, although uncouthly twluted
and distorted, and are now the only
reminders of that uprising of the der
vishes. John Bunyan's Indictment.'
The .bill of indictment preferred
against John Bunyan ran thus: "John
Bunyan hath devilishly aud pernicious
ly abstained from coming to church to
bear divine service and is a common
upholder of several unlawful meetings
and conventicles, to the disturbance
and distraction of the good subjects
of tbia kingdom, contrary to the laws
of our sovereign lord the king." He
was convicted and imprisoned twelve
years and six months. .

Mmistio concerning the good roads
movement inaugurated by Athena and
Weston with the completion of the
maoademized road between the two
towns. . -The Union says: .
- Preliminary arrangement for tin
building of a 12-mile road from Mil
ton to Walla Walla have been made,
and it ia only a . question of time
wbea tbe two plaoe will be connect
ed by a flue boulevard. The oouuty
authorities of Umatilla oounty have
agreed to take oare of the south end
of the road, and assuranoes have been
granted by tbe oounty commissioners
of Walla Walla oounty that tbay will
meet it with a like road from this oity
to tbe state line. Tbe proposition upon
wbiob the Oregon people will work is
that ot the Atbena-Weston road. Tbe
county will furnish the rook and the
orusher, and the farmers living along
the line are to haul the rook to. and
from the orusher. Petitions are being
oiroulated and generally signed in tbe
distriot from . Milton-Freewater - to
the state line and it is believed there
will be no diffioolty in securing pledg
es for tbe neossary amount of work.
G. W. Miller and E. E. Frazier of
the Milton Commercial Club . are in
oharge of the preliminary work. ,
County Commissioners H. M.Cook
burn and Boraoe Walker of Umatilla
oounty have oonferrei with tbe ooun
ty commissioners of this oounty and
have, assurance of tbe building of the
road. It will of neoessitv be under
the new state law but it is more than
likely the two miles of macadam al
ready oonstruoted between here and
College Plaoe will be utilized as a part
of the new highway.,
This would leave but about six or
seven miles to build.
Tbe building of this road would be
a great thing for the country it wopAA
serve. It would make . JiiUg of
produce muob easier in both direc
tions and would furnish an automobile
highway that would be muoh used. -
With its completion tbe Oregon
people are planning tbe building of a
road from Milton to oonneot with the
Atbeua-Weston highway and later
to extend that road to Pendleton. In
this state there is a movement on foot
in Walla Walla oounty to build a road
from . Walla Walla to Waitsburg as
soon as tbe Dixie crusher is in opera
tong and to extend it to the Columbia
oounty line, where it is said that ooun
ty will piok it up aud take it to Day
ton, i..-,
With these roads completed there
would be a 100 mile oootinuous mao
adam highway through the entire
Walla Walla Valley.
