UNFAIR GRADING or WHEAT.
Palouse Farmers still Complaining Of
Rejection Of Good Grain.

Rejection Of Good Grain.
RosaLIA. Dec. % Especial. The COM
plants Of unfair grading of wheat At Ia
coma are still heard. One Of the latest
victims is Hon. T. g. MuIkey. Democratic
member Of the state legislature from the
Sixth district, and brother of C. J. Null
key, recently convicted al Portland of
smuggling. Mr.. Unlikely shipped . car
load of wheat to Tacoma through the
warehouse of Wilmer d Drayer. Of Ro-
salia. The wheat was rejected, and after
lying in the car at Tacoma for several
weeks, Mr.. Mickey finally accepted the
paltry sum of SIS and freight for the car
load of wheat. The car contained 3l3
sacks of wheat. and As Mr.. Mulkey had
paid 10 cents each, or $3.50 for the sacks,
he got the muniticent sum of s.. 20 for his
car OF wheat. Misfortune seetos TO have
marked Mr.. Mulkey as its prey, for he is
beset by many ills. Much of his wheat,
and he had large crop. was ruined by
rain and part OF that he supposed was
good has been rejected. For several
months he has been suffering with kidney
troubles, ard his friends fear he has
Bright's disease, and have despsired
of his recovery. Added to this is
the disgrace of his Brothers downfall,
which Is a load the man can scarcely bear
in his present physical condition. To the
Posr-IsTEiITGEScER CORES pendent he
said: Everything seems to go wrong at
once" He tried 10 assume a cheerful
aspect. but IL was miserable failure, and
il takes but casual glance 10 see that Mr..
Muikey 10 broken in spirit and in health.
He has never recovered from the shock
caused by the death of his youngest
daughter nearly two years ago. which
weakened him until he is now . total
wreck.
Talton & Fruit recently put "drycr"
in Talton's warehouse at this place and
expected 10 dry damp wheat and place IL
upon the market as No. wheat Though
they went 20 an expense Of about s. 900,
the dryer does not come up to expecia-
tions and Is only partial success The
quality of the grain is improved. but it
does not grade "No. l." and the difference
between rejected" and mo g. scarcely
pays tue expense of drying the grain.

A eRAMllArIOAL QUESTION.

The Tnteuiesncer calls attention to an
error In these columns by which DAVID
DUDLEY FIELD was credited with hold
ing that the singular verb should be
used with limited States" as nomina-
tive. The accident did Mr.. FIELD an
injustice. And. by the way, CORES
pondent who writes to the REGISTER on
this subject confounds DAVID DUDLEY
FIELD with Justice STEPHEN J. FIELD
OF the United States Supreme Court.
The Tltelligencer, likewise, seems to
labor under a misrepresentation as to
Mr.. FIELDS objectin arguing that "the
United States" should be used
with the plural verb. Mr..
FIELD discussed the matter from
a purely grammatical standpoint. He is
not known particularly as an advocate
Of States rights, but he recognizes the
Constitution as the highest authority on
the sense OF the term.
The Iutelti7sRcer, with the Republican
Capitalization bee buzzing in its ear,
says;
It's true, as Mr.. Field says, that the
form is plural; but the sense IS singular
and 80 is the fact; for which reason many
Americans prefer to treat tue noun as OF
the singular number and put the yero IN
agreement with il. b. II you please, u IS the
national idea as opposed 10 the old soVer-
eighty idea that was fought 70 hnish IN
the civil war
Our contemporary is so STEPPED In
narrow partisanshlD that it tries TO dis
I'll political capital even out Of dry
question Of grammar. In other words,
to show that the States Of the Union
are not sovereign it turns a gram
matical somersault and declares that
''the United States is"
Section OF Article Of the constitu-
ton says: Treason against the United
States shall consist only in levying war
against them, adhering to their enc
mics, etc. Does the IntelligRcer hold
that the founders OF our government
did not know what they were about
when they spoke Of the United States in
the plural?

An Old Stage Coach to Convey n Party

Previous to the completion OF the
National road the U. ). mail was carried
between Wheeling and GAINESVILLE on the

1927, aud in 1928 the Ohio Stage Com

Terry as It's agent, aud mails and pass
engers were carried along the National
road and all kinds Of traffic was i'm
mense until the building Of the Central
Ohio railroad diverted 1t TO that chan
mel.
Capt Terry, 1855, took a part OF the
stock and equipments to Iowa and there
established stage routes. The venerG-
bic captain is yet alive and resides at
GAINESVILLE, Ohio. He has o scheme In

very interesting, that he recently unfold

lie has written TO George Hawkes.,
who now lives In southern Ohio, who
was one OF the original stage company,
and who the Captain suppoSes may yet

Capt. Bell and II. Bimple, OF Zanes-

hold receptions at the d iffnrent original

The plan is to have the trip made

full report made Of the stories told, in
cldents related, historical and tradi-
tional "reminiscences brought out.

TIE STREET HALLWAY SITUATION.

~
The Wheeling aud Elm Grove Rail-
road proposes TO solve the problem Of
furnishing East Wheeling with street
car facilities by building an electric road
OF It's own to take in all available
territory in that locality.
This plan is an excellent one and will
meet with general appreciation. Its
friends would be even more numerous
than they are now il the plan was to
connect with the Ohio road, which is
asking, and ought TO be allowed, to
come into the city, or with the Wheel
ing company.
Everybody understands by this time
that each Of these companies is playing
a game TO protect itself. But there is
plenty Of room and plenty of traffic for
all three ir Wheeling aud the problem
would be solved to the satisfaction of
all concerned II they would unite to
give the city the additional street car
service it needs.
Council could hardly do better than
give the w. 4 E. G. the grant 1t asks
With proper restrictions and with the
proyiso that it connect with one, or
other, or both Of the other roads.

A Lsatherwood Girl Bitten by a Mad
Dog.

Dog.
Excitement prevails at Leatherwooa
over daughter OF Frank Walters, aged
II years, having eeen bitten by mad
dog night before last.
The girl entered the saloon, and her
fathers large Newfoundland dog was
in her way. The girl tried to shove the
animal away, but be flew at her, biting
her on the arm and twice on the side,
fearfully tearing her flesh. The girl
was greatly terrified, as the dog con-
tinued the attack, jumping toward her
face. The girl succeeded in reaching a
closet aud shutting herself In from the
beast. Here she went into swoon ana
Mysteries, from which she has not YET
recovered, and her condition is regarded
as very critical.
Persons near by heard the noise ana
went to where the dog stood, stlll al the
door Of the closet. They succeeded In
driving the animal away with clubs ana
finally succeeded in getting the dog
into a chicken coop, where was shot
1t is said there is not doubt the dog
was mad.
The girl, unconscious, was taken
from the closet and medical aid called.
Great fear prevails regarding her pre-
carious condition, and there Is talk OF
sending her to the Pasteur school for
the treatment and prevention OF hydro
phobia.

A Monster Fish.

The catching of a forty-seven and one
half pound catfish down the river was the
talk OF the Eighth ward last evening.
The FISH was caught yesterday morn
ing by trout line, at the Dextert fish
ing camp OF the South Side, at Postum
Rifle, near Moundsyille. John Teagle
and Henry Yanke were the South
Siders who caught the monster. These
gentlemen brought the fish on the train
last evening, and ii was taken TO Ed
ward Hoffrenter's saloon, at Thirty-tifth
and Chapline streets. Hundreds OF peo-
pie viewed the fish and its weight is a
fact, as persons of entire reliability saw
it weighed. 1t is very seldom that
such fish is taken from the river near
this city.
