Pendleton Letter'
Pendleton, Or., Feb. 12, '05.
Editor Democrat:
Since the Rooster gent in his last
letter several great events have tran
spired. Among them are the I ollowing :
A great national election, a regular
democratic blizzard, the fall of Port
Arthur, and the indictment iff Mitchell,
nermann, Williamson, an j other prom
insnt republican politicians andconspir-
ltjrs in the great land frauds, and an
attempt blackmail U. S. District
Attorney! Heney who is trying to do his
d jty in bringing to justice one of the
most gigantic crowds of land manipu
lators that ever infested the state of
Oregon. These and other events mark
the closing of the old and . the opening
up of theJNew Year.
As the OregonLegislature has seen
fit to pass a resolution endorsing Mitch
ell's course and believing in his inno
cence TheJRooster makes a motion that
Linn county endorses poor Binger Her
mann as they seemed to think so much
' of him when he was elected to Congress
a short time ago, and the Legislature
clear lorgot poor Binger.
Thejwinter here until the 10th has
been all an Eastern Oregon farmer or
stockman could ask. But on the night
of the 9th the taillend of the eastern

The Roaster was in Helix
when
blizzard started in, but caught the first
train for Pendleton to avoid being
snowed in. Today has been the coldest
for two years and it makes the Rooster
wish he was a little rose bud in the
Willamette Valley.
The Rooster will try and be at the
Lewis and Clark , Expositon and will
probably be found in the Klamath
county collection. The Rooster will
always be looking around for a all kinds
of freaks of nature and will no doubt
see Little Rose Bud. ,
About 4 miles from Athena there was ,
born a pig with four well developed
human hands, one on each leg instead
of a hoof, and one well developed, arm.
It died. If it had livad it would have
been seen at the Lewis and Clark Ex
position with the collection from Mud
dy. I dont know whether it would
have lived on prunes and catfish or not.
The Rooster never could figure out
how old Linn county came to be a re
publican county until the U. S. Grand
Jury investigated matters up there,
and from the findings of the jury it
seems to the Rooster that the republi
can populatian is very large from Port
land via Clackamas to Roseburg, and
from Albany via of Sweet Home, and
Township No. 11 to Washington D. C.
Pendleton has been quite lively dur
ing the fall and winter and trade has
been good. A great many, new bricks
are under construction, but the blizzard
his stopped all building temporarily.
Tho Monterastille Bros., granite and
stone dealers here, have a contract for
20 car loads of chiseled stone for the
govornmont barracks at Walla Walla
as soon as the tilizzard is over. -
While at Heppnor a little incident
happened at a danca about a mile from
Heppner. A young man while under
the influence of red fire flourished his
rovolvcr in the room. It was discharged
and the result was a little girl 7 years
old was killed. Every man in the
house made a break for tho door and
left on a dead run. One man about 45
years old took down a trail and over
took a jackrabbit. Ho tried to dodge
by the jack and finally kicked it out of
the triiil, saying at tho time to the jack
to got out of the way and give the
trail to some one who could run. This
is told on a Heppner man.

Legislative Doings. ,- j
The legislature is to be commended
for killing the graft bill providing for
the purchase of an old residence for
$14,500, which it is said could be bought
any time for $9,000, for a governor's
mansion. It came near getting
through. A good many other bills
which pressnt bigger grafts,
will be-
come laws, and the total is immense. '
The Democrat is glad to find even j
one thing to commend it for. t j
The normal school graft bill will
pass, pruviuiiig iui bvijf dmuwl in me
state. The governor in a . speech be-
fore the Willamette students last night' j
called it by the right name. He showed
how the normal schools had dominated
everything in the legislature, the fol
lowers of the different schools trading
on everything in order to secure an ap
propriation for the school. The word
mud pretty well fit the situation. The
Democrat is thoroughly in favor of
everything that shall advance the cause
of education in Oregon, but four schools
where two would serve the people bet-
. . ..
rer, presents nowiing in xavor at tne
movement roor scnoois qo not help a
state. Firstclass normal schools do.
strictly one school is enough for Ore-
gon, many much larger states have
only one, but on account of the divis-
ion of the state by the Cascades there
should probably be two. ' I
A good thing to be commended was
