divided into ten companies. four of which
were formed yesterday. Drilling goes on
daily and strict discipline is maintained
and cbeerfully lived mp to by tho rank aud
file. ION to Washington" is the allah
sorbing topic just now among the men.
while Commander Shepard and his officers
are in addition trying to solve the problem
of raising money enough to take the army
through without stop and without outside
assistance. This question has been brought
TO the attention Of . number of prominent
citizens who think well Of the plan
and believe that Seattle will contribute the
necessary funds TO carry the army through
TO Washington City. The present week

place.
The benefit ball given by the Industrial
Army at Armory hall last Saturday was
a pleasant affair socially. but not the
financial success anticipated. There we're
l, I'll tickets issued. and cash already re-
ceived on sale of tickets amounts to $2i3

Armory and served the supper. and by
their united efforts ensured the success Of
the affair. Mrs. Paul Mohr. the comman-

The States Crops.

The following is the report of the state
weather bureau Tor eastern Washington !:
This has been week OF cool, partly
cloudy weather with very light rains in
some OF the extreme eastern and south
ern counties which were so light as to do
but little good to growing crops. The
highest temperatures were from "A to "a
degrees. Duiing the same week last
year they were just about the same.
The coolest nights had temperatures
ranging between IS and 50 degrees. Alb
sence OF warm days has been benefit to
all grain crops in the ground. In pOr-
tions OF Walla Walla county grain har-
vest is about half over at this writing.
In many places in Adams county it is
over. Cutting of early oats has begun
near Rosalia, Whitman county. IS a
rule wheat is ripening slowly but is fill
ing well. Our Colfax, Whitman county,
correspondent writes that the heavy
rains OF spring proved of great benefit
this season for the grain crop in his sec
tion promises to yield handsomely, des-
pite the scarcity OF moisture at this time.
Down in the extreme southern parts OF
the state, where they raise corn, the
crops are suffering from want OF rain.
Near Orondo, in Douglas county, corn
that was planted only two months ago
is topping over and looks well. In that
same district sweet water grapes will be
ripe in a week or ten days. In other
sections fruit is doing well.
1t can be said without fear of contra
diction that in Washington state fine
growing weather is an assured tact every
year from July to September !. The
rainy weather lets up at just the right
time.

New Wheat Rate.

The wheat raisers in the Palouse viii
likely get a reduced rate on shipments
over the O. r. < n. to tide water.
Joseph Campbell, the freight agent at
Spokane, has not been advised yet OF
any change in rates from Spokane to
Portland, but it is known that new
rate is in contemplation, embracing the
country from the Willamette to Spo-
kane. The matter OF a reduction in
rates came up in request OF the wheat
growers for a reduction Of one cent a ton
per mile, and although the O. r. q \.
declined to make so great reduction the
officials promised TO do something.
1t is understood that a rate would
have been made before now if it had not
been for the fluctuations in the Chicago
grain market, it being the intention OF
Receiver Mcneil to hold up traffic rates
ii the price OF wheat showed any indi-
cations OF expanding so that the farmers
would receive reasonable profit even with
present transporta tioA rates to tide water
in force. On the other hand, ii the price
OF wheat remains down, a better rate
will be given, but the reduction will be
less than one cent a mile ton. The
rates now in force are: $3.50 Il ton at
Pendleton, $40 at Walla Walla and
$4.75 for Palouse points including Spo-
kane. The reduction that will probably
be made for Palouse points will be fifty
cents a ton, making the rate $l.25 in
stead Of $l.75.
The receiver of the 0. r. & ~, has
called upon the heads OF departments
ior a general reduction in salaries. There
will be a complete overhauling OF the
pay roll for the purpose Of reducing the
expenses OF the road. 1t will effect em-
ployes in all departments OF office and
shop work.-Chronicle.

railroad Men Kick.

Notice OF reduction in the salaries OF
the employees OF the 0. r.. & n. was re-
ceiyed yesterday, says the Garfield En-
terprsc. The reason assigned is to re-
duce expenses.
The cut is l2l2 per cent. on all salaries
exceeding 500 per month and 10 per
cent. on all exceeding 500.
A consultation between the men was
held, the general sentiment being in
favor OF the men resigning rather than
accept the reduced wages. Many OF the
employees are members OF no order, but
should the dissatisfaction result in a
general walk out it would result in a tie
up OF the whole line.
They say the road reduced the rate on
wheat on part of the line and then cat
wages on the entire system to even up
the account.
The employees OF the Northern Pacific
expect a similar reduction, although no
notice has yet been received.

Old Wheat Not Wanted.

OF great importance to the wheat
growers of eastern Washington is the de-
termination OF the Tacoma wheat eX-
porters not to handle any OF this sea-
sons crop that has been mixed with the
crop Of 1898, says Tacoma dispatch in
the Seattle P.-I. Last week one OF the
first consgnments OF 1894 wheat was
found to contain several sacks Of last
seasons wheat. This was cause for re-
jecting the entire car.
Wheat which can be segregated, how
ever, in the sack will not bring entire
loss upon the shipper, because the new
wheat can be placed 10y itself and paid
for as new w1eat, and the old wheat can
be rejected. Still, exp rters do not want
the wheat mixed, and they are deter
mined not to handle mixed consignments.
But more particularly do they demand
that there shall be no mixing OF wheat
in the sack. 1t is estimated that there
is about 100000 bushels Of last Years
crop in Eastern Washington and Oregon,
of which it is estimated there is 1000
bushels in he Palouse district. In some
instances it is appreh nded the old crop
will be mixed with the new in the sack.
This would render the grain mixed in
the sack Objectionable.
1t is understood the growers are reluc-
tant about selling their wheat at prevail
ing prices, being about ~ cents per
bushel here, and with freight and sacks
deducted, about 25 cents per bushel at
the shipping station. Many will not
sell unless compelled to do so. The talk
ed OF reduction in freight rates, shippers
estimate, will be about 20 cents per ton,
making the ton rate 81 instead OF $4.1O.
This would be equivalent to a reduction
per bushel from 1412 cents to y cents.
Exporters do not believe the war in
Japan and China will result in any no.
ticeable increase in the demand for
wheat or flour. Should other countries
be involved the demand would increase.
However, there are large flour orders for
the Oriental trade to be filled. Manager
Smith, of the local Touring mills, says:
eve do not look for increased orders
of -four as a result OF the war in the
Orient. The fact is these people do not
consume much flour. Scarcely any one
over there uses flour, save foreigners and
a few natives who have learned to use
-four. The rank and file OF the people
stick to rice"

Rain and continued wet weather, such

materially damage the wheat crop OF

dangers OF hot weather have passed
away. The yield is estimated At approx

IN DANGER OF DESTRUCTION.
The Democratic Party on the Point OF
Going to Pieces.

Aht DehotHdtit tue oI
Going TO Pieces.
In the national congress to-day the
leading topic of discussion is how to
save the democratic party. Every
statement made by Mr.. Cleveland in
his letter to Mr. Wilson rings with the
necessity of saving democratic honor
democratic pledges, democratic pros
poets. Nothing is said about the pros
perity of the country, the prosperity of
business men, or the prosperity of
any particular class of people, but the
one and only leading thought is how
to save the democratic party.
The fight between democratic lead
ers seems now to be for the purpose OF
fastening upon each other response
bility for the defeat of all democratic
promises. The party having failed OF
keep its pledges to the people, and
finding itself now defeated, the con-
flict between the leaders as to who
shall suffer.
1t is hard to see how an agreement
can be brought about. After calling
each other towards in high places"
and charging ''perfdy and dishonor"
upon those charged with responsible
leadership, it seems to be fight to the
death. Shall Cleveland triumph; shall
the senators succeed; or are the mem
bers of the lower house to be the vic
tors? Somebody must be the victim.
1t appears now very plain that the
whole party must &c down together.
Senator German has done much to-
ward clearing away the mist and cob
webs that have hintlered the people
from having a full understanding of
democratic methods and democratic
promises, but in the future the people
will be better prepared to understand
how to read between the lines when
democrats go upon record as to what
is the true meaning of their words.
The house framed tariff bill to suit
the house; the senate changed this bill
to suit the senate; and now the presi-
dent attempts to have it changed to
suit himself. The people are saying,
Let the Mckinley bill stand; it is
better than anything the democrats
have offered or proposed up to date"
There is no calamity SO great to the
American people as the results OF the
mistake of party leaders in neglecting
10 legislate in the interest of trade and
commerce as being against party
power. The people now demand that
business be restored. Two years of
waiting and uncertainty have brought
about spirit in the minds of thinking
people that can no longer be quieted
They mean to dethrone and turn from
power everywhere, all forms of demo-
cratic rule, unless peace is at once re-
stored
