KEEP EYE ON PASCO Two Townships of Arid Land Have Been Located RECEIVER BLALOCK INTERVIEWED Tells a Tacoma Ledger Reporter of Conditions Around Pasco and Her Future. Dr. Y. C. Blalock. of Walla Walla, registered last evening at the Donnelly with his wife, being on his way back over the mountains from attendance on the Masonic grand lodge meeting at Seatttle, says the Tacoma Ledger. Mr. Blalock occupies the position in Walla Walla of United States land agent, and is thus familiar with the doing of late in the neighborhood of Pasco. Within three weeks nearly two townships of this desert land has been taken up, principally by men from Seattle, the fees from registra tion alone on one afternoon amount ing to upwards of $l.dnn. The busi ness is all done through the Walla Walla office. The lands so taken up are all of the sandy worthless char acter called desert, and useless for anything until water shall be put upon it. Claims allowed by the government are 320 acres each. The Seattleites claim to have organized a company to irrigate the land thus being taken tip. the capital being over $750,000. The gentleman at the head of the propo sition is Captain Cray, than whom no man in Washington has had a more chequered career. It was he first in troduced Pasco to the world through his unique advertising by the use of the expression "Keep your eye on Pasco." Had he withdrawn from the townsite when the boom was highest he would have been one of Washing ton's millionaires. But he believed what he was preaching, that water was going to change the sagebrush land into a garden of Eden, and as a consequence he was stranded with the rest of Pasco. He afterwards induced a company to back him in the con struction of a refrigerator boat, and load it with meats and poultry at the mouth of the Yukon river. He reach ed Dawson with it in the fall of 1898, and every pound of meat of the hun dreds of tons aboard sold readily at from $1.25 to $2.6" a pound. That put the gallant captain on his feet again, and he lias apparently again sought out the sand lots of Pasco, and is bent on demonstrating to the hundreds of men he induced to invest there years ago that he was right but only pre vious. Said Mr. Blalock: "Wherever water has been put on that land of sagebrush and sand it has blossomed like a rose garden, and now the only question is where will they get the water. I do not think they will undertake to pump water in any quantity. It would never pay. Just where they will get it in order to have it high enough for that land Ido not know. The river at that point has a fall of 29 feet in the summer time. All the water of the Yakima river is now required for the irriga tion works now in existence, and to utilize that stream will require the construction of immense impounding works at the head to reserve the win ter Bow for summer use. But never theless, the land is being taken up and registered, and the fees continue to roil into the government office in a most satisfactory fashion from a sec tion of the state too long neglected ami declared hopeless. From the amount of money being spent, you may take it for granted that there is 'a hen on.' A Guaranteed Cure for Piles. It'-hing, Blind. Bleeding and Pro truding Piles. No cure, no pay. All druggists are authorized by the manu facturers of Pazo Ointment to refund the money where it fail's to cure any case of piles, no matter of how long standing. Cures ordinary cases in six days; the worst cases in fourteen days. One application gives ease and rest. Relieves itching instantly. This is a new discovery and it is the only pile remedy sold on a positive guar antee, no cure, no pay. Price 50c. BANNER IMMIGRANT YEAR. Washington, D. C, June 20. —The immigration to the United States, in cluding Porto Rico, for the year end ing today, is just a little above the volume of immigration in ISB2, which was the "top year" in the history of this country.

Be convinced of the truth and of the remarkable faculties of Vendetta, the Great Lady Clairvoyant and Palm ist possesses. A rej>orter visited Iter last week at the rooms in the Bee Hive lodging' house and submitted to a reading. It was remarkable the knowledge the! medium possesses, reading as she I does the past, telling the present and j drawing aside the veil of the future. Hundreds of aching hearts and trou- j bled souls have been made right.' Mothers, fathers, sons, daughters and sweethearts have been comforted by the knowledge which this honest and gifted lady possesses. Hundreds are i longing for the same comfort and advice and she will give it if you only come unto her. This gifted lady and prophetess believes in theology and takes the Bible for her guide. If the Bible be your guide believe what it says, sayeth the prophet. The length of days are in her right hand, and in her left hand riches and honor. Job 37:7. "He sealeth up the hand of every man that all men may see and know His work." There are over 10,000 allusions to the hand and the science of psychic powers in the Bible. Listen to na ture's teachings. The moment a person steps before this gifted lady she reads them through and through. If there is any disease or weakness in your body or any one belonging to you. she sees it and their life is laid'open to her as a book. It helps her busy the entire day and part of the night giving readings and meeting those who wish to be built up physically and mentally, and lots who are taking developing les sons from her as she is certainly the strongest in the psychic and magnetic powers that has ever visited this city. Everyone should be strong and know of these great truths, and if proper developed and care of the body were taken they would be. By her system of physical culture and others of na ture's treatments and development the frailest lady can be made well. This gifted lady will not be with you always so i ome while there is time and hear a complete story of your life. WALLA WALLA MARKETS REVISED DAILY. Retail Prices.

NOT AN ODIOUS COMPARISON Some tyro who has recently picked up a little smattering of chemistry either from attempting to teach it or from studying a few general terms from some text-book contributed the leading editorial to the morning mis asma that appeared some time before sunrise today. The writer imagines he has made a gn at hit by comparing the Statesman to Croat Sale Lake ami he predicts that both will dry up some time, although he does not ex press the belief that it will be within the life of any man now living. He says that the time is not far dis tant when nothing but the solid will remain Bless your soul, the States man is just about as solid now as any institution of this city, and that is what hurts some schemers who would like to work their grafts in this com munity without danger of exposure.

FOUND GAS IN WELL Important Discovery Made in Franklin County ON DR. JOHNSON'S PLACE Down a Depth of 716 Feet —Copper Ore Found at 600 Feet and a Foot of Mica. Dr. R. S. Johnson, who is in the city, reports the finding of considerable Quantities of natural gas on his farm in Franklin county located in section 'i-l'Z nine miles southeast of Kah lotus. Well-borers have been at work on a huge well on his place for sev eral weeks, and at a depth of 600 feet, th.- first indication of the gas were encountered. The well is now down to a depth of 710 feet and the Quantities of gas arisig from the depths is increasing. Xo water in any appreciable quantities has as yet heen struck, hut drilling will he continued for some time yet in hopes of striking a good flow. At the 600-foot mark a peculiar sub stance of a greenish color and feeling greasy to the touch was brought up by the drill, and a few feet further down a strata of copper quartz was encountered. Copper in considerable quantity was found in the rock. A strata of almost pure mica was also struck in the downward course. The indications of gas. however, is of more importance to Dr. Johnson he says, than either copper quartz or mica and if its presence increases he may continue the well down several hundred feet further in ;m effort to tap a reservoir. He is also of the be lief that oil can be struck, though it would possibly require boring to a depth of 1500 to 2000 feet. SINCERE APPLAUSE. From the applause given each num ber of the concert given by the Walla Walla Military band last night, the music was undoubtedly appreciated more than ever before.

BE A LIGHT YIELD Franklin County Crops Do Not Look Good VIEWS OF W. G. VANVALKENBURG Farmers Are Not Discouraged, How ever, and Will Not Let Loose Their Holdings. "Crops in Franklin county are look ing no worse than on Eureka fiat, but they are badly in need ot" rain, and the prospects are that, a light yield will be the result of this year's work," said W. G. Van Valkenberg, United States land commissioner at Connell. who left for that town last night after spending two days visiting his family here. •■Farmers are rather blue over the outlook, bur they have faith in the country am! will stay with it. There may be a few who will be obliged to let loose, but not many. The mere fact that crops all over the wheat j belt give promise of partial failure leads them t believe that had the j yield been norma! in other localities |it would have been good in Fraklin county, and they will stay with it. J "Crops are not a failure by any means, as in many localities a good 'yield will be harvested.. Up around I Lind the wheat looks pretty short, but j around Connell many will harvest from I~> to 20 bushels an acre and others will get more than this. The county is till right and the land is worth every cent that is tx>ing asked for it." Mr. Van Valkenberg said that Con nell is enjoying a steady growth. The i new water system has been put in J ami many new buildings are being erected. The town is settled in the i m w site and a general air of prosperi jty prevails. ATTENTION EAGLES.

M GOSSIP OF GOTHAM Prospects for Building of a People's Hall. i%\\\s IT FOUR DOLLARS EACH The Social Position of the Chauffeur Is Proving a Vexatious Question. New York, June 20. —New Yorkers ate jubilant over the prospect of hav ing a People's hall, an institution that! has been discussed for over a year. The idt the city campaign arc being Bred. the time goes on there are those who predict that the fusionists' chances for winning the election again are growing stronger. Devery is the thorn in Tammany's side and i is very doubtful if the prediction that he will come to terms and be found lighting side by side with the organi zation wiil lie verified. On tin' con trary the Wigwam will name a clean, able man for mayor and there seems to he good logic with the argument that, more can he gained by refusing to treat with Devery than would be lost by the few thousand votes he would poll. Steamships from South America are bringing an increased number of passengers, due. probably to the com ing St. Louis exposition, as just such an increase in traffic took place be fore the Chicago Fair. Since the late C. P. Huntigton abandoned the old United States and Brazil line, for eign companies have practically a monopoly of the South American trade and now that freight and passenger traffic is increasing, talk of opening an America line is revived. Shipping men belfeve there is an excellent opening here for American capital, and steamship men. especially, as a mail subsidy could he secured by ves sels built to classify as second and third (lass auxiliary cruisers. The fad that a consignment of 1500 cigars thar will retail for $4 each has just been passed through the customs house of this city under a duty of 69 cents each, is a interesting comment ary upon the rapidly developing fas tidiousness of smokers. That a man of great wealth will pay $50 for a bottle of rati wine is not altogether surprising, hut that a man would pay %4 for one smoke and pay it as a regular thing is startling even to the epicure. The cigars are sixteen inches long and one inch in and a quarter in diameter and weigh 60 pounds to the 1000. j The social status of the chauffeur is proving a vexing problem to automo bilists and road house keepers, and also to the chaffeur himself. Not un naturally, he regards himself as above the coachman, hut while his employer is willing to concede this, he is not willing to treat hfm as such. On the other hand, the other guests of the house might resent the chaff eur's presence at their table, since he is not socially competent to sit with his employer. The only alterna tive left is to have a special dining room for him. but the chaffeur of any spirit w,.. object to that as too much like the treatment of a menial.

sider Canal Treaty. idci opposition m infest Many Fear It Will Mean the Absorp tion of Republic by United States. Chicago, 111. —William E. Curtis, in a Washington special to the Record- Herald, says: As stated in the dis patches, the president has instructed rlio secretary of state to notify the congress of Colombia, in a polite and diplomatic manner, of course, that the government of the United States will not stand any nonsense In connection with the Panama canal treaty; that its terms are offered in good faith and the consideration is as great as this government is willing to pay. Our minister in Colombia will advise the leaders of the opposition that if this treaty is rejected or amended the con gress of the United States cannot be expected to ratify another, and if they want a canal they must act prompt ly and in good faith. The politicians of Colombia are not in the habit of acting promptly or in good faith, and if they do not delay and attempt to dicker for better terms it will be the first time in their his tory that they have failed to do so. In a recent letter I explained the argu ments that were being used in favor of delay, the chief one being that the French concession was unlawfully granted and is therefore void, aud, if nut void, will expire in two years, when Colombia can make better terms with the United States because our government will then have nothing to pay the Fn aehmen. The remainder of tlie opposition is based upon the hope that th.' resent officials of the Colomhian gi v. rnment may be defeat ed for r?-e!ee ion i:i the near future and that c "outs" may get "in" am! have the gov rnment and responsibili ty of handling the $10,000,000 thai is coming fn m the United States. The leader of the '"outs" is General Ra phael Reyes, the designado secundo. or second vice president. Colombia, like several of the South American re publics, having two. Reyes is a strong man —one of the ablest and of the best in Colombia. He has a reputation for patriotism and honesty much above that of the or dinary Colombian politician. He has held several important political posi tions and has always administered his duties with ability and integrity. He is a man of good education, and un like most Colombian politicians, has traveled considerably in something of the outside world. The average offi "ial of the Colombian government considers Bogota the finest city in the universe, and congratulates himself that the entire world is watching with eager eyes whatever happens in that little pocket in the Amies. Genera] Reyes is not so narrow minded or provincial, and is perhaps the superior of any member of the pnssetn t administration at Bogata. He is a strong believer in the canal, and in the theory that it ought to be built and controlled by the United States, but at the same time he is the rival and enemy of President Marroquin. and does nor approve of the manner in which the latter came into power. Dr. San Clemente was elected president. Dr. Marroquin first vice president and General Reyes second vice president. Early in the recent revolution Presi dent San Clemente. who is SI years of ago. was frequently advised and even requested to resign, but he declined to do so, and finally, upon the advice of a physician, who is supposed to have been acting in the interest of Marro quin he was persuaded to retire to his estates in the country for a vacation. Under the constitution Dr. Marroquin took his place at the head of the government. It is charged that the latter, having succeeded in getting the president away from the capital, took steps to see that he did not come hack, and has since heen exercisinng power. General Reyes, next in succession, did not approve the methods by which the change was brought about, and it was generally expected that he would join the revolutionists and be come their leader, which might hare niade the movement successful: hut "for sufficient reasons Reyes refused to take up arms, and in the fall of 1901. accepted from President Marroquin an appointment as delegate to the sec ond international American confer ence, which was held in the City of Mexico. At the same time he was commissioned envoy extraordinary and minister plenipotentiary to the republic of Mexico, where he has been residing until a few months ago. with out taking apparent interest in the revolution that has devastated his country, it having been generally un derstood that Reyes remained in Mexico in order to keep out of the revolution, because if he went home he would be forced into it. and Marro quin. understanding his feelings, gave him an excuse for leaving the country without dishonor. Being elected to congress, however. General Reyes could no longer remain away, and has returned to Bogota. j For Infants and Childrs^ 11*ASTORIA The Kind You Have J Always Bought I!

His movements are watched with the greatest anxiety, because in this emer gency his official position, his popular ity with all factions, his ability and reputation for unselfish integrity, will enable him to control the congress and to secure the defeat or the rati fication of the treaty.
