A PENDLETON LEITEtt. A Quiet Ray in Pendleton- Sunday the 6th day of August will I6ng be remembered as one of the quietst days that Pendleton has ever experienced. Last week the District Attorney notified all the saloons to close all their places of business at 1 o'clock Saturday night until 12 o'clock Sunday night. The Saloon men then retaliated by circulating a petition to close every business house in town, and presented it to the city council. The council being composed of men who, moro or less, stand in with the saloon men, adopted the petition unanimously. Since the action of the council, the proceedings have been cussed and dis cussed, and cussed again by everyone. Today you cannot buy anything but i meal or loaf of bread, or have a' pre scription filled, at a drug store, and I understand that the. druggists refuse to . keep open just to fill prescri; tions, and the undertakers refuse to open up to do any undertaking work. No livery stables are allowed to hire out any rigs. No ice cream nor ice wagons nor milk wagons are allowed on the street today. How long this will last is a question. This matter of closing the saloong was started by the farmers, so that their harvest crews could not get drunk on Sunday and demoralize their threshins business on Monday, and in a great manv instances would have to hunt a new crew, which is a great detri. ment, also a big expense to them. This they thought could be bettered if the saloons could be closed on Sunday during harvest at least. On the other hand the council concluded that 3G0 acres o'f land on the reservation was enough for any farmer to lease and that there should be some law passed to that effect and he (the farmer) would not have so much trouble in sav ing his crop, that it would be just as reasonable to shut down on the large farmer as the saloon man. Probably at the next meeting of the city dads they will extend their corporation lines around the Reservation and tell Mr. Farmer what he must do. ' For nearly three weeks the weather has been intensely hot, not only during the day but almost all night. Many a night the Rooster has took a big palm leaf fan to bed with him and used it till long after midnight and wished often for the cool Willamette breeze. 11 IS Stilt very IIUI. vuuajf, wi iivu w. slay in the house, so we are spending n, .tr. i n, v1 nnrW n 1 kirire shade tree.

Orion's Advantages Prof. Alexander Scott, for many years a very efficient instructor in Alb any College, writing in the New Con cord, Ohio, Enterprise, speaks impar tially as follows: I am often asked questions of differ- ;nt kinds in regard to Oregon. Think ing that others are also interested in it I have concluded to tell the readers of the Enterprise some of the things that I have learned about it during my resi- Jcnce of 13 years in Albany. I will say it the outset that it, . like all other places, has its advantages and disad vantages. I have lived in seven differ ent states and have found that all, in some respects, were desirable places of residence but had their drawbacks. No one was ideal in every respect. In regard to the climate, taking the whole year into consideration, I think that of Oregon is the best 1 have ever found. It is true that there is a great deal of rain during the winter, but one 3oon becomes accustomed to it. One good thing about it is that there are no viuieui. nujriiu sum occurrence in the East and Middle West. Sometimes there is considerable j ,.,m v. f, o nw nmVirolla in the wind which puts an old umbrella to the test, but there are no cyclones, nurri- canes or tornadoes; and thunder and ngrttnins are seiaom neara ana Heen. In Albany the rainfall is about 44 inches during the whole year. Last year there 1 was really no winter. I did not see ice mmrtor of an inch thick, and it was found only in puddle3 on the street. The streams were not frozen at all. During the whole winter there were no more than two inches of snow, and I did not see the thermometerj;below 25 dagrees. In other parts of the state it i3 colder. e3Deciallv inlEistern Oregon, where there is more -snow! and wind. where there is more ;snow: and wind, out aveu uiore, u i iiavo urai wnai- ly informed, the winters are by no moans such as are found in the Eastern states. The mildness of the climate is duo to the prevalence of the Kuro Siwo, or Japan Current, which moves across the Northern Pacific Ocean andj whose warmth is felt along the whole coast from Alaska southward. ' The differ ence in temperature between Eastern and Western Oregon is accounted for by the obstruction of the eastern course of the Japan Current by the"Cascade Range of mountains, and by the cold wave that works its way southward from Northwestern Canada, filling the valleys and canyons of Eastern Oregon. In Western Oregon the result of the mildness of climate and the abundance of rain is that grass is green and flow- era uiuuin uurmK tiio iiiuot, il hw. whole of the winter in 8'ome localities, d that ,ett uce radi3h0s, turnips and onions can be raised at any -time they are nlfintod. That Ofeson 13 therefore a g00d place for farmers is a natural lnierence, proviuea vnu auu ia iuuu- tive. And such is generally the case, especially in the Willamette Valley. The soil, for the most .part, is very fer- tjle and seidora fails to produce a good crop, although it has been continuously cultivated for many years. It is said that farma which have been tilled year ' , , hnlf centUrv still continue to produce about 18 bush . ela of wheat and 30 bushels of oats per acre, and that too without tne use or i fortilizors. I will not vouch for tha ( truth of the assertion, but I have heard . men say that over 30 bushels por acre j ii the yield in some parts of Oregon. It is claimed that some of the sandy i bam along tho creek bottoms produces from 150 to 200 bushels of potatoe3 par acre, and that the best Innd, both on j hills and in valleys will produce 4 ton ot ; red clover per acre. Other productions of the soil are equally abundant except corn, which requires more warmth for its' maturity than it finds in Oregon, where the nights are always cool. It can easily bo seen, theroforo, that a high-grade farmer can do well in Ore gon. All, however, who consider them solvos fir3t-class farmers are by no means experts. Of tho proof of this assertion 1 have seen, in riding through tho country, moro than one proof. In two adjoining fields owned by different men, I have seen a dilTorence which was not duo to the soil. In one was a crop of splendid wheat and nothing but wheat. In the other was a mixture of wheat, rye, oats and cheat by no means luxuriant. In one tho farmer had nlowod tho ground and . sown nothing but wheat In tho other tho ro-called farmer had only scratched the ground and sown a mixture of four kinds of seed. It was the fault of the cultivat ors of tho ground and not of the soil that caused the difference. C. & E. Trains Circus Day.

Frenzied Thought-i. "The Equitable disturbance will blow over" says Senator Depew with the same assurance the man used who told Noah that he did not think it was going to be much of a shower anyway. We will insist that these are the re mains of John Paul Jones until some one cliims them and proves his claim Mr. Carnegie has founded a library in Philadelphia for negroes. "Dream books" and hints on poultry raising should have ft prominent place on the shelves, also a few on"watermilyons" might be added. , 1 The statement that J. D. Rockefel- low is pining for a kind word is a re flection upon the gratitude of Presi dent Harper, of the University of Chi cago.

This was resented by the crew and the young man himself was stubble dragged He then challenged any horse in the outfit co run against his mare. This was promptly accepted by one of the crew, wno agreed to run his horse Booker T. Washington. Both animals have con siderable local reputation as runners. Instead of getting his horse, it was claimed that the boy was hurt. The crew wishing no trouble agreed to pay him ten dollars. The claim that the boy was hurt was considered ridiculus.
